Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is one of the finest cryptographic technique of recent time due to its lower key length and satisfactory performance with different hardware structures. In this paper, a High Throughput Multiplier architecture is introduced for Elliptic Cryptographic applications based on concurrent computations. With the aid of the concurrent computing approach, the High Throughput Concurrent Computation (HTCC) technology that was just presented improves the processing speed as well as the overall efficiency of the point-multiplier architecture. Here, first and second distinct group operation of point multiplier are combined together and synthesised concurrently. The synthesis of proposed HTCC technique is performed in Xilinx Virtex - 5 and Xilinx Virtex - 7 of Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) family. In terms of slices, flip flops, time delay, maximum frequency, and efficiency, the advantages of the proposed HTCC point multiplier architecture are outlined, and a comparison of these advantages with those of existing state-of-the-art point multiplier approaches is provided over GF(2¹⁶³), GF(2²³³) and GF(2²⁸³). The efficiency using proposed HTCC technique is enhanced by 30.22% and 75.31% for Xilinx Virtex-5 and by 25.13% and 47.75% for Xilinx Virtex-7 in comparison according to the LC design as well as the LL design, in their respective fashions. The experimental results for Virtex - 5 and Virtex - 7 over GF(2²³³) and GF(2²⁸³)are also very satisfactory.

The fluid retention effect of the Volume Control Tank (VCT) leads to a long time delay in Reactor Coolant System (RCS) concentration during the boration process. A coupled model combining a lumped-parameter sub-model and a computational fluid dynamics sub-model is currently used to investigate the concentration dynamic characteristic of RCS during the boration process. This model is validated by comparison with experimental data, and the predicted results show excellent agreement with experimental data. We provide detailed fields in VCT and concentration variations of RCS to study the interaction between mixing in VCT and the transient responses of RCS. Moreover, the impacts of the inlet flow rate, inlet nozzle diameter, original concentration, and replenishing temperature of VCT on the RCS concentration characteristic are studied. The inlet flow rate and nozzle diameter of VCT remarkably affect the RCS concentration characteristic. Too-large or too-small inlet flow rates and nozzle diameters will lead to unacceptable long delays. In this work, the optimal inlet flow rate and nozzle diameter of VCT are 5 m³/h and 58.8 mm, respectively. Besides, the impacts of the original concentration and replenishing temperature of VCT are negligible under normal operating conditions.

The 19th CPC National Congress has a key historical significance in the development of China's constitution. It will also play a decisive role in the history of the seventy years'constitutional change in New China. XiJinping's new socialist thought with Chinese characteristics established in the report of 19th CPC National Congress will be written in the preface of the March 2018 National People's Congress's constitutional amendment. The fifth revision of 1982 Constitution will touch on many issues such as the leadership of the CPC into the constitution, the abolition of the tenure of the president, the constitutional oath system, and the reform of the national supervisory system. In addition, the constitutionality review system, the establishment of the National Security Council, the constitutional status of socialist public property and private property and the adjustment of major economic system has become a hot topic in the theory field. In the history node towards a socialist country ruled by law, the theory and practice of the China indeed have the academic ideas, value position and path model differences, which will delay the Chinese constitutional development, but also is the necessary pain in the process of moving towards the rule of law in China. Indeed, how to the development and where to go in the future of Chinese constitutionalism itself has sample value, which deserves rational attention and in-depth inquiry from Chinese and Western academics.

Fast decision support systems and accurate diagnosis have become significant in the rapidly growing healthcare sector. As the number of disparate medical IoT devices connected to the human body rises, fast and interrelated healthcare data retrieval gets harder and harder. One of the most important requirements for the Healthcare Internet of Things (HIoT) is semantic interoperability. The state-of-the-art HIoT systems have problems with bandwidth and latency. An extension of cloud computing called fog computing not only solves the latency problem but also provides other benefits including resource mobility and on-demand scalability. The recommended approach helps to lower latency and network bandwidth consumption in a system that provides semantic interoperability in healthcare organizations. To evaluate the system's language processing performance, we simulated it in three different contexts. 1. Polysemy resolution system 2. System for hyponymy-hypernymy resolution with polysemy 3. System for resolving polysemy, hypernymy, hyponymy, meronymy, and holonymy. In comparison to the other two systems, the third system has lower latency and network usage. The proposed framework can reduce the computation overhead of heterogeneous healthcare data. The simulation results show that fog computing can reduce delay, network usage, and energy consumption.

Although tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a general medical issue with growing prevalence and socioeconomic burden, most clinicians have not paid much attention to TR in the past. Several problems of TR have been pointed out in clinical practice, which include: ambiguous clinical manifestations and the difficulty in initial detection, limitations in generally used diagnostic tools, the absence of objective criterion for therapeutic intervention, high operative morbidity and mortality, and lack of long-term clinical data after the intervention for TR. Therefore, patients with TR usually visit clinicians at a much-advanced state, and this delay gives a major dilemma in clinical decision-making in a routine clinical practice. To improve the clinical outcome of TR, we need more knowledge about TR for solving the current problems and making strategies for better clinical practice. With this background, we have discussed in the present article about the pathophysiology of TR and the problems frequently experienced by clinical physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of TR. Furthermore, we have discussed the future strategy to improve the treatment of TR.

Data aggregation is the significant process in which the information is gathered and combines data to decrease the amount of data transmission in the WSN. The sensor devices are susceptible to node attacks and security issues such as data confidentiality and data privacy are extremely important. A novel technique called Ruzicka Index Regressive Homomorphic Ephemeral Key Benaloh Cryptography (RIRHEKBC) technique is introduced for enhancing the security of data aggregation and data privacy in WSN. By applying the Ruzicka Index Regressive Homomorphic Ephemeral Key Benaloh Cryptography, Ephemeral private and public keys are generated for each sensor node in the network. After the key generation, the sender node performs the encryption using the receiver public key and sends it to the data aggregator. After receiving the encrypted data, the receiver node uses the private key for decrypting the ciphertext. The key matching is performed during the data decryption using Ruzicka Indexive regression function. Once the key is matched, then the receiver collects the original data with higher security. The simulation result proves that the proposed RIRHEKBC technique increases the security of data aggregation and minimizes the packet drop, and delay than the state-of-the- art methods.

As with appearing new applications that requires QoS guarantee such as VoIP, VPN in Internet, problems of IP QoS has been one of most important issues in next-generation Internet. IETF has proposed integrated services model(Int-Serv) and differentiated service(Diff-Serv) to supply IP QoS in Internet. Int-Serv model uses the state information of each IP flow, so satisfies QoS according to traffic characteristics, but increases the amount of flow state information with increasing flow number. Diff-Serv model uses PHP(Per Hop Behavior), and there are well-defined classes to provide differentiated traffics with different services according to delay and loss sensitivity. Diff-Serv model can provide diverse services in Internet because of having no the state and signal information of each flow. As MPLS uses the packet forwarding technique based-on label, it implements the traffic engineering in the networks easily. The MPLS can set up the path with different traffic parameters, and assign each path to particular Class of Services. Therefore it is possible to support the Diff-Serv model with well-defined classes. In this paper we investigate the performance improvement of Diff-Serv function in the MPLS network to guarantee class of services in Internet.

Joint channel assignment and routing is a well-known problem in multi-radio wireless mesh networks for which optimal configurations is required to optimize the overall throughput and fairness. However, other objectives need to be considered in order to provide a high quality service to network users when it deployed with high traffic dynamic. In this paper, we propose a re-configuration optimization model that optimizes the network throughput in addition to reducing the disruption to the mesh clients' traffic due to the re-configuration process. In this multi-objective optimization model, four objective functions are proposed to be minimized namely maximum link-channel utilization, network average contention, channel re-assignment cost, and re-routing cost. The latter two objectives focus on reducing the re-configuration overhead. This is to reduce the amount of disrupted traffic due to the channel switching and path re-routing resulted from applying the new configuration. In order to adapt to traffic dynamics in the network which might be caused by many factors i.e. users' mobility, a centralized heuristic re-configuration algorithm called State-Aware Joint Routing and Channel Assignment (SA-JRCA) is proposed in this research based on our re-configuration model. The proposed algorithm re-assigns channels to radios and re-configures flows' routes with aim of achieving a tradeoff between maximizing the network throughput and minimizing the re-configuration overhead. The ns-2 simulator is used as simulation tool and various metrics are evaluated. These metrics include channel-link utilization, channel re-assignment cost, re-routing cost, throughput, and delay. Simulation results show the good performance of SA-JRCA in term of packet delivery ratio, aggregated throughput and re-configuration overhead. It also shows higher stability to the traffic variation in comparison with other compared algorithms which suffer from performance degradation when high traffic dynamics is applied.

Recently, a research regarding calculation of construction time extension-oriented incidental costs has been intensively suggested in quantitative aspect and recent studies on system improvement has been made continuously. In the case of Domestic Public Construction Works, State Contract Act is applied when the client is government whereas Local Government Contract Act is done when the client is local government, but more meticulous study is required because improvement plan is not proposed even there is a clear demand for improvement of these problems on calculation standard. Thus this study suggested appropriate standard by comparing each the calculation standards followed by 'State Contract Act' and 'Local Government Contract Act', considering the problems accorded, and analyzing field cases. Calculation method of other expenses was differently regulated as the revision of each regulation, and this demonstrates that there is a difference of actual cost from 12.37% to 24.95%. It is shown that less cost of construction time were calculated than actual cost according to a problem of calculation method by State Contract Act as the rate at the time of contract to be applied in other expense rate. This study suggested the rate against incidental cost and the rate of other expense per day against total construction cost as an appropriate rate calculation for other expense based on field database.

We are interested in the PON which is easy to install and inexpensive to maintain, as it is a solution of the FTTH that is a core technology of the BcN access network. When a new ONU is connected, TDMA PON has a procedure called ranging that OLT measures the distance and allocates the equalized delay to it in order to provide the same logical distance to all ONUs. For the procedure, the OLT has to open a time window several times and already activated ONUs cannot transmit a data to the upstream during the periods. Accordingly, it is important to reduce the window size for saving the bandwidth and providing a user the service smoothly. In this paper, we investigate the ONU activation method of G-PON based on ITU-T G984.3 and suggest an advanced method(algorithm I) that minimizes the window size without information of ONU distance. The size can be reduced by calculating the pre-assigned delay obtained during Serial number state. Also, we compare it with another(algorithm II) with information of distance. As a result, the window size reduces to $50{\sim}90%$ for the algorithm I and 99% for algorithm II during the ONU activation process.
