In this paper, we present a new form of DDOS attack and a mechanism to defend systems from it. Up to now the ultimate target of a DDOS attack is a specific host. But in the near future router attacks are expected to appear. Because these kinds of attacks may involve many hosts in the managed domain of a specific router, they will be still more serious than the current DDOS attacks. Also, we present an algorithm to defend against an attack on a router using survivability of the router. By using a survivability of a router, the router can control a quantity of traffic autonomously without an interruption of services even when a DDOS attack occurs.

Recently, localized heavy rain storms have been occurring frequently due to global warming, and it is difficult to shield a large number of facilities against disaster with limited manpower. The unmanned water treatment system uses five senses to analyze various judgment criteria, which are set according to field situations such as machine vibrations, the temperature of bearings, the sound of the operating machines, and the hydraulic pressure, current, and voltage of the hydraulic floodgates. It thus judges normal or abnormal operation status and conducts unmanned control of such machines. It automatically applies a system to the interruption of communications and therefore improves the reliability of its unmanned irrigation facilities. It maximizes the operational efficiency of managers responsible for various fields, enabling them to discharge water before the situation escalates to a crisis within the golden time, and to protect against damage to humans and property.

Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a clonal myeloproliferative hematopoietic stem cell disorder. Deregulated BCR-ABL fusion tyrosine kinase activity is the main cause of CML disease pathogenesis, making BCR-ABL an ideal target for inhibition. Current tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) designed to inhibit BCR-ABL oncoprotein activity, have completely transformed the prognosis of CML. Interruption of TKI treatment leads to minimal residual disease reside (MRD), thought to reside in TKI-insensitive leukaemia stem cells which remain a potential reservoir for disease relapse. This highlights the need to develop new therapeutic strategies for CML either as small molecule master TKIs or phytopharmaceuticals derived from nature to achieve chronic molecular remission. This review outlines the past, present and future therapeutic approaches for CML including coverage of relevant mechanisms, whether ABL dependent or independent, and epigenetic factors responsible for developing resistance against TKIs. Appearance of mutant clones along the course of therapy either pre-existing or induced due to therapy is still a challenge for the clinician. A proposed in-vitro model of generating colony forming units from CML stem cells derived from diagnostic samples seems to be achievable in the era of high throughput technology which can take care of single cell genomic profiling.

Power Quality and reliability are becoming important issues for critical and sensitive loads. The recent growth in the use of impactive and nonlinear loads has caused many power quality problems such as voltage flicks, harmonics and unbalances, which may cause the modem automatic devices to fail, misoperate, or shut down. This paper deals with 7-Level H-Bridge Line-Interactive Dynamic Voltage Restorer (LIDVR) system. It has the power factor near to unity under normal source voltage, can compensate the harmonic current of the load and instant interruption, and has the fast response. Currently, most of the DVR design studies are based on the assumption of the balanced three-phase system. But, actually line fault occurred $1{\phi}\;{sag}\;or\;2{\phi}$ sag. Hence, proposed new control scheme compensate asymmetry input voltage. Finally, simulation results verify the proposed 7-Level H-Bridge LIDVR system.

Cathodic oxygen reduction kinetics on $La_{0.9}Sr_{0.1}MnO_3$ electrode have been examined at $700-900^{\circ}C$ under various oxygen partial pressures. AC impedance and current interruption techniques were employed for the determination of charge transfer resistances for electrochemical oxygen reduction. The $R_{ct}$ values obtained from two different methods were very close each other for $La_{0.9}Sr_{0.1}MnO_3$ electrode. Activation energy for the electrochemical oxygen reduction was found to be 174kJ/mol under atmospheric oxygen pressure. $R_{ct}$ measurements as a function of oxygen partial pressure indicate that the rate-determining step for the electrochemical oxygen reduction on $La_{0.9}Sr_{0.1}MnO_3$ electrode is the charge transfer process.

This paper deals with the dead operation characteristics of the earth leakage circuit breaker(ELB) caused by impulse voltages. The surge protective devices for electronic circuit and AC power lines are becoming more widely used. It is possible to give rise to the malfunction of ELB due to the operation of surge protective devices, and the interruption of AC power lines brings about several disadvantages such as low reliability of electronic and informational systems, economical loss, and etc. The dead operation characteristics of the ELB from impulse voltages were measured under the conditions of KS C 4613 and the test circuit with a varistor. As a result, the peak current value of the zero-phase sequence circuit of the ELB is increased as the surge voltage and stray capacitance increase. All of the ELBs used in this work were satisfied with the lightning impulse dead operation test condition defined in KS C 4613. However one specimen only did not cause dead operation in the condition of the test circuit with a varistor. There is high possibility that a large portion of the ELBs connected with the AC power lines having the surge protective devices bring about the dead operation.

In this paper, measurement techniques are presented to test the performance of insulation without interruption if it is difficult to measure insulation resistance. Especially, non-contact voltage phase detection techniques have been developed that can be applied in environments where it is difficult to find voltage measurement locations such as component receptors. The performance verification of the non-interrupting insulation resistance measuring devices has been tested against existing products using standard calibration equipment and test jigs. The validation confirmed performance within 2 % for direct contact type and within 10 % for non-contact type. In addition, the procedure to make continuous insulation test using the equipment was proposed.

Recently, Gas Circuit Breakers are rapidly replacing Vacuum Circuit Breakers in the medium voltage switchgear. This is due to the improved performance of - GCB in interrupting capability, price, weight, size etc., while the countermeasure to suppress the switching surges of VCB has not been satisfactory. Intensive research works on the GCB have been conducted in the world widely since 1980. Nowadays it is well known that the thermal expansion type GCB can provide- better performance than puffer type in the distribution power system. KERI has conducted researches in the GCB rated at 25.8kV 25kA with Jinkwang Co. using the thermal expantion principle since 1993. In this paper, the calculated results of electric and magnetic fields for the model GCB are presented and analyzed. The effect of permanent magnet used to improve the interruption capabilty at the low current level is also investigated. The design parameters for the interrupter inspected through the short-circuit tests conducted at high power laboratory of KERI.

This paper presents the transient behavior of the switching surge voltages generated by interruption of DC ground fault currents flowing through metal flexible conduits. All fault circuits consist of line parameters such as resistance, inductance, capacitance and conductance. The use of nonmagnetic metal conduits should be taken into account in order to reduce the inductance of battery charger distribution circuits. The frequency-dependent circuit parameters of metal flexible conduits were measured. The switching surge voltages generated at the ground fault circuit consisted of steel-galvanized alloy and aluminium conduits were investigated. As a result, the impedances of metal flexible conduits are significantly increased over the range of the frequency above 10 kHz and the switching surge voltages generated along aluminium flexible conduit are lower than those along steel-galvanized alloy conduit when DC fault current is interrupted.
