A smart card based on the existing Java card platform executes and installs an application only when the power is supplied for a minute. And preparing for unexpected power outrage, the execution state of an application and all the data that are modified during execution are saved in the heap. This kind of frequent data update of an EEPROM data is a main cause of reducing the life-cycle of a smart card. This is because the smart card has been developed not considering the current situation that the power is always supplied, and by this time it has continuously kept its old architecture. This paper explains the high performance Java card system free power restriction. The system improves not only application saving mechanism, but memory architecture. In special, we deploy RAM for running an applet, as well as EEPROM for downloading an application. Through proposed mechanism, we can find out performance evaluation that the creation speed of an applet and the execution speed of a method increase up to 58% and 33% respectively.

This study analyzed the quality of a commuter rail service of Incheon line 1 with respect to two service measures such as occupancy (crowdedness) and punctuality based on transit smart card data collected in 2009. In order to analyze the metro services by individual fleet, we aggregated the personal level card data into the fleet operated in each planned schedule. The results show a low level of service for both crowdedness and punctuality during peak hours at the line segment from 'Gyeyang' to 'International business district'. Further, a close relationship between vehicle occupancy and punctuality is found, which illustrates high passenger demand causes successive metro delay.

Smart card has a small sized micro computer chip. This chip contains processor, RAM, ROM, clock, bus system and crypto-co-processor. Hence it is more expensive, complicated and secure chip compared with RFID tag. The main application area of smart card is e-banking and secure communications. There are two kinds of smart card platforms; open platform and closed one. Java card is the most popular open platform because of its security, platform independency, fast developing cycle. However, the speed of Java card is slower than other ones, hence there have been hot research topics to improve the performance of Java card. In this paper, we propose an efficient transaction buffer management to improve the performance of Java card. The experimental result shows the advantage of our method.

Smart Card is currently more popular in mobile communication, and smart card with java card platform becomes a standard choice. Java card has a problem that it gets lost working data when power is off. Transaction is the idea to solve a problem of data loss, but it accepts only one transaction process, and other transaction process need to hold until the current working transaction is finished. This might be a factor to drop the Java card's performance. In this paper, we define a rule of dual-lock which can run transaction at multiple transaction buffer as a method for a better java card performance, and we suggest this rule to improve a capability of transaction process. From this research, we are able to improve the data stability, reduce the java card transaction delay time, and get a higher processing speed of java card.

There are several independent applets to support various applications in a Java Card. Each applet in a Java Card processes and manages its own data without concern to other applets and their data. In this paper we proposed file system API to support efficient file management based on Java Card. Also we designed and implemented Java Card based file system API using basic API and referring to the file system standard defined in ISO 7816-4 Smart Card standard. By using proposed file system API, we can replace duplications of same code in each applet with short method call. So the used memory space and processing time is reduced and also the reduction of development time and cost will be expected.

급속한 정보기술 및 인터넷의 발달로 인해 네트워크를 통한 정보의 교류가 활발해지고 온라인 뱅킹 등 전자상거래와 관련된 산업의 규모가 커지면서 정보보안과 휴대용이 용이한 스마트카드는 여러 활용분야에서 사용되고 있다. 계속적인 하드웨어 기술의 발전으로 스마트카드의 표준으로 자리 잡고 있는 자바카드는 스마트카드 플랫폼에 자바의 기술을 접목시킨 것으로써 객체지향 중심의 기법으로 보안상 매우 좋은 이점을 지니고 있다. 또한 특성이 다른 하드웨어에서 같은 동작을 할 수 있는 개방형 운영체제를 가짐으로써 다양한 다수의 응용 프로그램을 수용할 수 있는 유연성을 가지게 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 자바카드의 특성을 이용하여 하나의 회원 카드로 다수의 사용자가 사용할 수 있는 접근통제가 가능한 회원카드를 설계하였다. 사용자에게 발급된 하나의 카드에 들어있는 정보를 개인이 아닌 다수의 사용자가 서로 다른 PIN을 이용하여 카드 내에 있는 사용자 정보를 접근하여 개인 정보의 확인, 관리내용 업데이트, 내용에 따른 청구를 카드 하나로 가능하게 하였다. 이때 사용자 인증수단으로 사용되는 PIN의 보안성을 높이기 위해 개인별로 고유한 생체인식의 한 구성요소인 서명 데이터를 이용하여 패스워드가 가지는 보안상의 취약요소를 없애 보다 안전한 사용자 인증을 하고자 한다. 이러한 자바카드의 이용기술과 생체인식 및 다중PIN을 이용한 사용자 인증, 파일의 보안 등급의 차등적인 접근권한을 설계하고 마지막으로 비주얼한 응용프로그램을 구현함으로써 카드를 보다 안전하고 편리하게 사용할 수 있기를 기대한다.

네트워크의 발달과 전자상거래의 급속한 성장은 전자정보를 이용하는 다양한 형태의 지불수단을 등장시켰고, 그 다양한 지불수단들은 급속도로 개발되고 있다. 특히 스마트카드는 보안성이 상당히 높고 대용량의 데이터 저장이 가능하기 때문에 전자지불수단을 위한 매개체로 주목을 받고 있다. 그러나 현재의 스마트카드 관련 개발 환경은 개발비용이 상대적으로 높고 개발한 프로토콜이나 시스템의 안전성 및 효율성 등을 실험하기가 어려우며 개인 컴퓨터환경에서 응용 서비스를 개발하기가 어렵다는 취약점이 있다. 따라서 이러한 취약점을 해결할 수 있는 응용 프로그램의 개발이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 추가적인 하드웨어의 확장 없이 보유하고 있는 컴퓨터 환경에서 전자지불 시스템을 위한 응용 서비스를 적용하고 테스트할 수 있는 스마트카드 에뮬레이터를 설계하고 구현하였다.

As toward a ubiquitous society, a lot of methods have been proposed to protect personal privacy. Smart Cards with CPU and Memory are widely being used to implement the methods. The use of Java Card is also gradually getting expanded into more various applications. Because there is no standards in Java Card File System, Generally, Java Card File System follows the standards of Smart Card File System. However, one of disadvantages of the Java Card File System using a standard of Smart Card File System is that inefficient memory use and increasing processing time are caused by redundancy of data and program codes. In this paper, a File Cache method and a Direct Access method are proposed to solve the problems. The proposed methods are providing efficient memory use and reduced processing time by reduce a program codes.

This study examines the mobility of the disadvantaged population groups in terms of public transportation using the 2014 smart card data in Seoul, Korea. Particularly, we focus on the disadvantaged population such as senior group, junior group, and low-income population group. Based on the spatial distributions of public transportation mobility levels and the disadvantaged population groups, we identify specific areas where public transportation service should be improved for the disadvantaged population. As a result, we identify 15 administrative-dongs where the ratio of the disadvantaged population is high while the mobility index of public transit is low. The main contributions of this study are as follows. First, we use the smart card data which contains the information of actual trip made by individuals and develop the evaluation process of urban mobility for the disadvantaged population groups. Second, we identify the specific areas where public transportation service should be improved for the different group of the disadvantaged population. Lastly, we discuss policy implications to improve the urban mobility of the disadvantaged population.
