최근 모바일 백엔드서비스(Backend as a Service: BaaS)의 등장은 모바일 앱개발환경에 큰 변화를 야기하고 있다. BaaS는 백엔드기능을 클라우드 서비스 형태로 제공해주는 것을 말한다. 개발자는 BaaS 솔루션을 통해서 서버기술을 몰라도 그 환경에 연결되는 모바일 앱을 만들 수 있게 되어 초기투자비를 크게 줄이고 핵심 서비스 영역에 역량을 집중할 수 있도록 하며, 이용자 변화에 유연한 대처가 가능하게 되어 기술적 위험을 최소화할 수 있다. BaaS의 출현은 스마트기기의 확산으로 모바일 앱수요가 증가하면서 앱개발을 보다 효율적으로 하려는 시장니즈에서 비롯된 것으로 글로벌 시장규모가 2019년까지 연평균 100% 이상으로 급격히 성장할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 본고는 클라우드 모바일 백엔드서비스를 소개하고, 시장특성과 시장규모를 분석함으로써 국내 클라우드 서비스 시장 활성화에 기여하고자 한다.

In the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution, new technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, cloud, Internet of Things, and blockchain are being developed and applied to new industries. Blockchain has the characteristics of decentralization, security, and transparency, so it can serve as a core technology for developing new growth industries. Blockchain is provided as BaaS (Blockchain as a Service), but it is not easy for users who are introducing or building blockchain to choose BaaS. In this study, we identify evaluation factors and develop a decision-making model using fuzzy theory and AHP for BaaS selection. Eventually we aim to help companies choose the best BaaS and develop and commercialize blockchain-based services by developing a new decision-making model for BaaS selection.

Bacillus licheniformis ${\alpha}$-amylase (BLA), a thermophilic counterpart of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens ${\alpha}$-amylase (BAA), is an appropriate model for the design of stabilizing mutations in BAA. BLA has 10 more histidines than BAA. Considering this prominent difference, in the present study, three out of these positions (I34, Q67, and P407; located in the thermostability determinant 1 region and Ca-III binding site of BAA) were replaced with histidine in BAA, using the site-directed mutagenesis technique. The results showed that the thermostability of P407H and Q67H mutants had increased, but no significant changes were observed in their kinetic parameters compared to that of the wild type. I34H replacement resulted in complete loss of enzyme activity. Moreover, fluorescence and circular dichroism data indicated a more rigid structure for the P407H variant compared with that of the wild-type BAA. However, the flexibility of Q67H and I34H mutants increased in comparison with that of wild-type enzyme.

The kinetics of the addition of X-substituted benzylamines (BA) to Y-substituted Benzylideneacetylacetones (BAA) have been investigated in acetonitrile at $25.0^{\circ}C$. The reaction is studied under pseudo-first-order conditions by keeping a large excess of BA over BAA. The addition of BA to BAA occurs in a single step in which the addition of BA to $C_\alpha$ of BAA and proton transfer from BA to $C_\beta$ of BAA take place concurrently with a four-membered cyclic transition state structure. The magnitude of the Hammett ($p_X$) and Bronsted ($\beta_x$) coefficients are rather small suggesting an early tansition state (TS). The sign and magnitude of the cross-interaction constant, $p_{XY}$ (= -0.49), is comparatible to those found in the normal bond formation processes in the $S_N2$ and addition reactions. The normal kinetic isotope effect ($K_H/K_D$ > 1.0) and relatively low $\Delta$H^{${\neq}$}$ and large negative $\Delta$S^{${\neq}$}$ values are also consistent with the mechanism proposed.

BaaS(Blockchain as a Service)는 블록체인의 사용이 어렵다는 단점을 유연한 자원운용이 가능하고 뛰어난 접근성의 특징을 가진 클라우드와 접목하여 쉽게 블록체인을 구축하고 사용할 수 있도록 해주는 클라우드 서비스이다. BaaS 의 등장으로 블록체인의 접근성은 큰 범위로 증가하였으며 다양한 도메인에 활용되고 있다. 하지만 클라우드 기반 서비스이기 때문에 클라우드 서비스의 문제점인 보안 이슈가 제기되었다. 본 논문에서는 BaaS 에 ZKP(Zero-Knowledge Proof)와 엣지 컴퓨팅 기술을 활용하여 보안성을 제공할 수 있는 새로운 BaaS 모델인 EBaaS 를 제안한다. EBaaS 는 엣지 컴퓨팅 기술을 적용하여 클라우드 서비스 공급업체에 대한 데이터 종속성을 제거하고 블록체인의 고가용성을 제공할 수 있으며 ZKP 를 활용하여 내부적으로 민감한 데이터에 대한 보안성도 제공할 수 있다.

E-voting is a concept that includes actions such as kiosk voting at a designated place and internet voting at an unspecified place, and has emerged to alleviate the problem of consuming a lot of resources and costs when conducting offline voting. Using E-voting has many advantages over existing voting systems, such as increased efficiency in voting and ballot counting, reduced costs, increased voting rate, and reduced errors. However, centralized E-voting has not received attention in public elections and voting on corporate agendas because the results of voting cannot be trusted due to concerns about data forgery and modulation and hacking by others. In order to solve this problem, recently, by designing an E-voting system using blockchain, research has been actively conducted to supplement concepts lacking in existing E-voting, such as increasing the reliability of voting information and securing transparency. In this paper, we proposed an electronic voting system that introduced hybrid blockchain that uses public and private blockchains in convergence. A hybrid blockchain can solve the problem of slow transaction processing speed, expensive fee by using a private blockchain, and can supplement for the lack of transparency and data integrity of transactions through a public blockchain. In addition, the proposed system is implemented as BaaS to ensure the ease of type conversion and scalability of blockchain and to provide powerful computing power. BaaS is an abbreviation of Blockchain as a Service, which is one of the cloud computing technologies and means a service that provides a blockchain platform ans software through the internet. In this paper, in order to evaluate the feasibility, the proposed system and domestic and foreign electronic voting-related studies are compared and analyzed in terms of blockchain type, anonymity, verification process, smart contract, performance, and scalability.

IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force) RFC 2069 recommend to accept the DAA(Digest Access Authentication) scheme ill the HTTP 1.1(Hype. Text Transfer Protocol 1.1). When the client want to access the protected URI resources with Web Server, the BAA scheme is not considered to be a secure method of user authentication, as the user name and password are passed over the network as clear text. But, The DAA scheme is proposed to create a access authentication method which avoids the serious flaws of BAA(ie, passed over the network as clear text). The flaw of DAA is not supported the confidentiality services between client and server. This paper is proposed a confidentiality service scheme for HTTP environment, as an extension to DAA

BIM-based Cloud platform gained popularity coupled with the convergence of Fourth Industrial Revolution technology. However, most of the previous work has not guaranteed sufficient efficiency to meet user requirements according to BIM service. Furthermore, the Cloud environment is only used as a server and it does not consider cloud characteristics. For the processing of High Capacity Data like BIM and using seamless BIM service, Resource management technology is required in the cloud environment. In this paper, to solve the problems, we propose a BIM platform for BaaS and an efficient resource allocation scheme. We also proved the efficiency of resource for the proposed scheme by using existing schemes. By doing this, the proposed scheme looks forward to accelerating the growth of the BaaS through improving the user experience and resource efficiency.

Cloud services, which started in the early 2000s as a method of using idle servers, are more active with the advent of the 4th industrial revolution, and are being used in many fields as an optimal platform that can be used for business by collecting and analyzing data. On the other hand, the Internet of Things is an environment in which all surrounding objects can freely connect to the Internet network anytime and anywhere to transmit sensed data. In the Internet of Things, data is transmitted in real time, so BaaS, that is, a cloud service for data only has been added. In this paper, among BaaS services for the Internet of Things, a back-end service method that manages data based on Parse Server is explained, and a service that helps patients in rehabilitation is presented using this. For this, a Raspberry Pi is used as a hardware environment, and it is connected to the Internet, collects patient movement information in real time, and manages it through the Parse Server.

With the advancement of the internet, the use of personal information in online interactions has increased, underscoring the significance of data protection. Breaches of personal data due to unauthorized access can result in psychological and financial damage to individuals, and may even enable wide-ranging societal attacks aimed at those associated with the victims. In response to such threats, there is active research into security measures using blockchain to safeguard personal information. This study proposes a system that uses middleware and IAM (Identity and Access Management) services to protect personal information in a BaaS (Blockchain as a Service) environment where blockchain is provided via the Internet. The middleware operates on servers where IAM roles and policies are applied, authenticates users, and performs access control to allow only legitimate users to access blockchain data existing in the cloud. Additionally, to understand the impact of the proposed personal information protection method on the system, we measure the response time according to the time taken and the number of users under three assumed scenarios, and compare the proposed method and research related to personal information protection using blockchain in terms of security characteristics such as idea, type of blockchain, authentication, and confidentiality.
