Online social network services that are rapidly growing recently store tremendous data and analyze them for many research areas. To enhance the effectiveness of information, companies or public institutions publish their data and utilize the published data for many purposes. However, a social network containing information of individuals may cause a privacy disclosure problem. Eliminating identifiers such as names is not effective for the privacy protection, since private information can be inferred through the structural information of a social network. In this paper, we consider a new complex attack type that uses both the content and structure information, and propose a model, $\ell$-degree diversity, for the privacy preserving publication of the social network data against such attacks. $\ell$-degree diversity is the first model for applying $\ell$-diversity to social network data publication and through the experiments it shows high data preservation rate.

This paper proposes DDPT(Dynamic Data Protection Technique) which solves the problem of private information exposure occurring in a dynamic database environment. The DDPT in this paper generates the MAG(Multi-Attribute Generalization) rules using multi-attributes generalization algorithm, and the EC(equivalence class) satisfying the k-anonymity according to the MAG rules. Whenever data is changed, it reconstructs the EC according to the MAC rules, and protects the identification exposure which is caused by the EC change. Also, it measures the information loss rates of the EC which satisfies the ${\ell}$-diversity. It keeps data accuracy by selecting the EC which is less than critical value and enhances private information protection.

To protect personal information when releasing data, a general privacy-protecting technique is the removal of all the explicit identifiers, such as names and social security numbers. De-identifying data, however, provides no guarantee of anonymity because released information can be linked to publicly available information to identify them and to infer information that was not intended for release. In recent years, two emerging concepts in personal information protection are k-anonymity and $\ell$-diversity, which guarantees privacy against homogeneity and background knowledge attacks. While these solutions are signigicant in static data environment, they are insufficient in dynamic environments because of vulnerability to inference. Specially, the problem appeared in record deletion is to deconstruct the k-anonymity and $\ell$-diversity. In this paper, we present an approach to securely anonymizing a continuously changeable dataset in an efficient manner while assuring high data quality.

Personal information exposed in the Internet is increasing by the public data opening and sharing, vitalization of SNS(Social Network Service) and growth of information shared between users. Exposed personal information in the Internet can infringe upon targeted users using linkage attack or background attack. To prevent these attack De-identification models were appeared a few years ago. The 'k-anonymity' has been introduced in the first place, and the '${\ell}$-diversity' and 't-closeness' have been followed up as solutions, and diverse algorithms have been being suggested for performance improvement nowadays. However, industry or public sectors actually needs a whole solution as a system for the de-identification process rather than performance of the de-identification algorithm. This paper explains a way of de-identification techique for 'k-anonymity', '${\ell}$-diversity', and 't-closeness' algorithm using QI(Quasi-Identifier) grouping method in the relational database.

Technique based on the notions of anonymity is one of several ways to achieve the goal of privacy and it transforms the original data into the micro data by some group based methods. The first notion of group based method is ${\kappa}$-anonymity, and it is enhanced by the notions of ${\ell}$-diversity and t-closeness. Since there is the natural tradeoff between privacy and data utility, the development of practical anonymization algorithms is not a simple work and there is still no noticeable algorithm which achieves some combined anonymity conditions. In this paper, we provides a comparative analysis of previous anonymity and accuracy measures. Moreover we propose an algorithm to achieve ${\ell}$-diversity by the block merging method from a micro-data achieving ${\kappa}$-anonymity.

Physicochemical environments and phytoplankton community in the nakdong river middle basin were investigated during a period of 1 year from Nov. 1993 to Oct. 1994. The ranges of Physicochemical environment factors in the nakdong river middle basin were $3.6~27.4{\circ}C$ for temperature, 7.1~9.3 for pH, $7.1~12.7mg/{\ell}$for DO, $0.7~2.1mg/{\ell}$ for BOD, $31~52mg/{\ell}$ for alkalinity, $2.101~3.3mg/{\ell}$ for T-N, $0.052~0.099mg/{\ell}$ for T-p, $5.4~92.3mg/m^{3}$ for chlorophyll-a. The number of Phytoplankton was lowest in Jan. that is, 244ce11s/ml and that was highest in Sep. 1201 cells/ml. The increase of dominant genera were correlated with the total nomber of phytoplanktons. Bacillariaceae, chlorophyceae, cyanophyceae, and euglenophlrceae were to 74.5%, 20%, 3.5%, and 2.2% respectively. Bacillariaceae were abundant during all the year round except for Jun, Jul, Aug. Chlorophyceae were plentiful in Jun, Jul, Aug. Tase-and odor-causing algae and filter clogging algae were 72% in Nov. and 93.5% in Jun. They were abundant all the year round except for winter, so they influenced on the treatment of tap water system. They belong to the general asterionella, cyclotella, melosira, nitzschia of bacillariaceae and actinastrum, pediastrum of chlorophyceae. Dominace index was low in winter and high in umber. Diversity index and equitability index were low in summer and high in winter. Therefore, the structure of phytoplankton community of the nakdong river middle basin was different form season to season.

This study was conducted to gain basic data for alleviation of gas emission and conservation of healthy soil environment by investigating an aspect of gas emission and microbial diversity due to the supplement of different fertilizers after application with a livestock manure compost in greenhouse soils. Green pepper was cultivated in clay loamy soil from April to August. Before planting, a livestock manure compost was applied with $741mg\;ha^{-1}$ on the basis of the phosphate content contained in compost. And then, deficient nitrogen for cropping was supplemented with either quick-acting fertilizer of urea or a controlled slow release fertilizer made from urea formaldehyde(U/F). $NH_3$ and R $NH_2$ gases emitted from soil showed a low concentration in the early stage but a maximum in 27 days after planting, then decreased rapidly and not detected after 33 days. Their average concentrations were 42% and 85% lower in the treatment of slow release fertilizer than that of urea fertilizer, respectively. $CO_2$ gas emitted under urea fertilization was ranged from 1,200 to $3,200mg{\ell}^{-1}$ and that in slow release fertilizer was $900{\sim}2,650mg\;{\ell}^{-1}$. The average concentration of urea treatment was $2,260mg{\ell}^{-1}$ and 30% higher than that of slow release fertilizer. The treatment of slow release fertilizer with the lapse of cropping time populated larger in numbers of bacteria, actinomycetes, nitrate bacteria and nitrate reduction bacteria, and ratios of bacteria and actinmycetes to fungi than that of urea fertilizer. But the number of fungi was higher in the treatment of urea fertilizer and denitrifying bacteria showed a similar trend in both treatments. The microbial diversity index, which calculated with numbers of 6 species of microorganisms, was decreased with increasing of growing stage in the range of 0.1 to 0.35 and that was higher in the tratment of slow release fertilizer than urea.
