The SCADA(Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system is a control system for infrastructure of nation. In the past, the SCADA system was designed without security function because of its closed operating environment. However, the security of the SCADA system has become an issue with connection to the open network caused by improved technology. In this paper we review the constraints and security requirements for SCADA system and propose advanced key management architecture for secure SCADA communications. The contributions of the present work are that our scheme support both message broadcasting and secure communications, while the existing key management schemes for SCADA system don't support message broadcasting. Moreover, by evenly spreading much of the total amount of computation across high power nodes (MTU or SUB-MTU), our protocol avoids any potential performance bottleneck of the system while keeping the burden on low power (RTU) nodes at minimal.

The Flexible Management System (FMS) consists of parallel and concurrent machines, pieces of equipment, and carrying systems classified as buffers, tools, and routers, respectively. The concurrent flow of multiple productions in a system is competed with one another for resources and this resulting competition can cause a deadlock in FMS. Since a deadlock is a condition in which the excessive demand for the resources being used by others causes activities to stop, it is very important to detect and prevent a deadlock. Herein a new algorithm has been studied in order to detect and prevent deadlocks, after defining a relationship between the general places and resource share places in Petri nets like as DAPN: Deadlock Avoidance Petri Net. For presenting the results, the suggested algorithms were also adapted to the models that demonstrated FMS features.

In this paper, we implement and verify XMIP integrating IETF Mobile IP and the Explicit Multicast mechanism for a great number of small group multicast communications. U a source node sends Xcast packets explicitly inserting destination nodes into the headers, each Xcast router decides routes and forwards the packets toward each destination node based on unicast routing table without the support of multicast trees. n is a straightforward and simple multicast mechanism just based on a unicast routing table without maintaining multicast states because of the inheritance from the Explicit Multicast mechanism. This research modifies and extends the functionality of IETF Mobile IP's mobility agents, such as HA/FA to HA+/FA+ respectively, considering interworking with Xcast networks. Xcast packets captured by HA+ are forwarded into X-in-X tunnel interfaces for each FA+ referred to the binding table of HA.. This X-in-X tunneling mechanism can effectively solve the traffic concentration problem of IETF Mobile IP multicast services. Finally WLAN-based testbed is built and a multi-user Instant messenger system is developed as a Xcast application for finally verify the feasibility of the implemented XMIP/Xcast protocols.

While malwares must be accurately identifiable from arbitrary programs, existing studies using classification techniques have limitations that they can only be applied to limited samples. In this work, we propose a method to utilize API call frequency to detect and classify malware families from arbitrary programs. Our proposed method defines a rule that checks whether the call frequency of a particular API exceeds the threshold, and identifies a specific family by utilizing the rate information on the corresponding rules. In this paper, decision tree algorithm is applied to define the optimal threshold that can accurately identify a particular family from the training set. The performance measurements using 4,443 samples showed 85.1% precision and 91.3% recall rate for family detection, 97.7% precision and 98.1% reproduction rate for classification, which confirms that our method works to distinguish malware families effectively.

Aircraft data network (ADN) is a data networking for signal transmission among avionic systems in aircraft, and it mostly has been applied MIL-STD-1553B that guarantees high reliability considering its application environments. However, commercial Ethernet has been widely applied for ADN recently, and its range of applications have increased. Ethernet provides high speed of data transmission, however, it could not guarantee quality of service (QoS) so high as MIL-STD-1553B. In this paper, we propose dynamic routing and priority based data transmission schemes in order to improve the QoS of legacy Ethernet. Our propose schemes can be applied to Ethernet switch, and it is able to manage network traffic efficiently, and reduce the time for data transmission. We analyze the packet transmission time for both legacy and proposed schemes in Ethernet environments using simulation, and we show that our proposed scheme can reduce the time for data transmission compare to legacy spanning tree protocol.

This research project focused on the production of hydrogen through ammonia decomposition reactions while investigating how the reactivity of this process varies when employing different catalysts. Several metal oxide supports (Al₂O₃, La₂O₃, CeO₂) were utilized as catalysts, with active metals from both the transition metal group (Co, Ni, Fe, Cr, Cu) and the noble metal group (Ru, Rh, Pd, Pt) impregnated onto these supports. Furthermore, the study examined how the reactivity evolves with changes in reaction temperature when employing the prepared catalysts. Additionally, the research delved into the distinctive activation energies associated with each of the catalysts. In this research, In the noble metal catalyst system, the order of high activity for ammonia decomposition reaction to produce hydrogen is Ru > Rh > Pt ≈ Pd. In the transition metal catalyst system, the order of high activity is Co > Ni > Fe > Cr > Cu.

Sophorolipid is a biological surfactant of the glycolipid structure produced by Candida bombicola, which generally exists as a mixture of acidic and lactonic forms. In this study, we investigated physico-chemical properties, antibacterial activities, and cytotoxicity of the sophorolipid containing more than 96% of the lactonic form, produced by the gene regulation of production strains and application of a metabolic engineering technique. The lactonic sophorolipid showed a weak acidity in the range of pH 3.2~4.6 when diluted in water at the concentrations from 1 to 0.001 wt%. The $pK_a$ value of the lactonic sophorolipid was estimated to be around 4.3 from the acid-base titration curve. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the lactonic sophorolipid was $10^{-2}wt%$, at which the surface tension of aqueous solution was reduced to 36 mN/m. The lactonic sophorolipid showed the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of $1{\times}10^{-3}$ and $5{\times}10^{-3}g/mL$ against Propionibacterium acnes and Corynebacterium xerosis, respectively. The MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-Diphenyltetrazolium Bromide] assay showed that cytotoxicity of the lactonic sophorolipid was ten times lower than that of triclosan.

In order to elucidate the influence of intestinal and hepatic first-pass effect on the pharmacokinetics of triflusal, the biotransformation of triflusal in the gastrointestinal tract and liver was designed. Moreover, we tried to establish an HPLC method applicable for bioassay and available to pharmacokinetics, not only with the simultaneous determination of triflusal and its active metabolite, 2-hydroxy-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid (HTB), but also with improving sensitivity. After the administration of triflusal (10 mg/kg) and HTB (10 mg/kg) into femoral vein, portal vein (only triflusal) and oral route (only triflusal), pharmacokinetic parameters were investigated from the plasma concentration-time profiles of triflusal and HTB in rats. An HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous determination of triflusal and HTB in rat plasma, urine and bile. The HPLC analysis was carried out using a C18 column and acetonitrile-methanol-water (25:10:65, v/v/v) as the mobile phase and UV detection at 234 nm. Furosemide was used as the internal standard. The calibration curves were linear over the concentration range $0.05-5.0\;{\mu}g/ml$ for triflusal and $0.2-200.0\;{\mu}g/ml$ for HTB with correlation coefficients greater than 0.999 and with intra-day or inter-day coefficients of variation not exceeding 10.0%. This assay procedure was applied to the study of metabolite pharmacokinetics of triflusal and HTB in rats. It was supposed that triflusal was almost metabolized in vivo because urinary and biliary excreted amounts of triflusal could be ignored as it was lower than 1.2% of the administered dose. According to the gastrointestinal and hepatic biotransformation pathways of triflusal, it was found that triflusal was hydrolyzed by about 5% in intestine and metabolized by about 53% in liver, and that the bioavailability of triflusal after oral administration of triflusal was 0.44, and also that the fraction of total elimination rate of triflusal which formed HTB in liver $(F_{mi},\;%)$ was about 98%. These results showed that triflusal was almost metabolized in liver, and the total elimination of triflusal in the body was dependent to the formation rate of HTB from triflusal in liver.
