Driven by security and real-time demands of Internet of Things (IoT), the timing of fog computing and edge computing have gradually come into place. Gateways bear more nearby computing, storage, analysis and as an intelligent broker of the whole computing lifecycle in between local devices and the remote cloud. In fog computing, the edge broker requires X-aware capabilities that combines software programmability, stream processing, hardware optimization and various connectivity to deal with such as security, data abstraction, network latency, service classification and workload allocation strategy. The prosperous of Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) pushes the possibility of gateway capabilities further landed. In this paper, we propose a software-defined gateway (SDG) scheme for fog computing paradigm termed as Fog Computing Zero-Knowledge Gateway that strengthens data protection and resilience merits designed for industrial internet of things or highly privacy concerned hybrid cloud scenarios. It is a proxy for fog nodes and able to integrate with existing commodity gateways. The contribution is that it converts Privacy-Enhancing Technologies rules into provable statements without knowing original sensitive data and guarantees privacy rules applied to the sensitive data before being propagated while preventing potential leakage threats. Some logical functions can be offloaded to any programmable micro-controller embedded to achieve higher computing efficiency.

IoT (Internet of Things) systems are based on heterogeneous hardware systems of different types of devices interconnected each other, ranging from miniaturized and low-power wireless sensor node to cloud servers. These IoT systems composed of heterogeneous hardware utilize data sets collected from a particular set of sensors or control designated actuators when needed using open APIs created through abstraction of devices' resources associated to service applications. However, previously existing IoT services have been usually developed based on vertical platforms, whose sharing and exchange of data is limited within each industry domain, for example, healthcare. Such problem is called 'data silo', and considered one of crucial issues to be solved for the success of establishing IoT ecosystems. Also, IoT services may need to dynamically organize their services according to the change of status of connected devices due to their mobility and dynamic network connectivity. We propose a way of dynamically composing IoT services under the concept of WoT (Web of Things) where heterogeneous devices across different industries are fully integrated into the Web. Our approach allows developers to create IoT services or mash them up in an efficient way using Web objects registered into multiple standardized horizontal IoT platforms where their resources are discoverable and accessible. A Web-based service composition tool is developed to evaluate the practical feasibility of our approach under real-world service development.

We present CReMeS a CORBA-compliant design and implementation of a new real-time communication service. It provides for efficient predictable and scalable communication between information producers and consumers. The CReMeS architecture is based on MidART's Real-Time Channel-based Reflective Memory (RT-CRM) abstraction. This architecture supports the separation of QoS specification between producer and consumer of data and employs a user-level scheduling scheme for communicating real-time tasks. These help us achieve end-to-end predictability and allows our service to scale. The CReMeS architecture provides a CORBA interface to applications and demands no changes to the ORB layer and the language mapping layer. Thus it can run on non real-time Off-The-Shelf ORBs enables applications on these ORBs to have scalable and end-to-end predictable asynchronous communication facility. In addition an application designer can select whether to use an out-of-band channel or the ORB GIOP/IIOP for data communication. This permits a trade-off between performance predictability and reliability. Experimental results demonstrate that our architecture can achieve better performance and predictability than a real-time implementation of the CORBA Even Service when the out-of-band channel is employed for data communication it delivers better predictability with comparable performance when the ORB GIOP/IIOP is used.

Since understanding of similarities and differences among protein structures is very important for the study of the relationship between structure and function, many protein structure comparison systems have been developed. Hut, unfortunately, these systems introduce their own protein data derived from the PDB(Protein Data Bank), which are needed in their algorithms for comparing protein structures. In addition, according to the rapid increase in the size of PDB, these systems require much more computation to search for common substructures in their databases. In this paper, we introduce a protein structure comparison system named WS4E(A Web-Based Searching Substructures of Secondary Structure Elements) based on a PSAML database which stores PSAML documents using the eXist open XML DBMS. PSAML(Protein Structure Abstraction Markup Language) is an XML representation of protein data, describing a protein structure as the secondary structures of the protein and their relationships. Using the PSAML database, the WS4E provides web services searching for common substructures among proteins represented in PSAML. In addition, to reduce the number of candidate protein structures to be compared in the PSAML database, we used topology strings which contain the spatial information of secondary structures in a protein.

Privacy and security are latent problems in pervasive healthcare system. For the sake of protecting health monitoring information, it is necessary to classify and categorize the various contexts in terms of obfuscation. In this paper, we propose the physiological context categorization and specification methodology by exploiting data fusion network for automatic context alignment. In addition, we introduce the methodologies for making various level of physiological context on the context aware application model, which is wear-UCAM. This physiological context has several layers of context according to the level of abstraction such as user-friendly level or parametric level. This mechanism facilitates a user to restrict access to his/her monitoring results based on the level of details in context.

The present study examined gender differences between science-gifted students and general students in creative thinking, personality, environment and performance in science. Subjects were 171 eighth grade students, 66 gifted in science and 105 general students. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Stepwise Multiple Regression. Sex differences between the science-gifted and general students were found only in several subcategories of the dependent variables. The most critical predictors of creative performance in science were the title abstraction factor in gifted boys and general girls, and the resistance of enclosing factor in general boys.

유비쿼터스 환경에서 끊임없이 동적으로 변하는 환경에서 수많은 상황데이터가 발생하고 상황정보로 추상화하는 과정이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 미리 정의된 코드 값들과 측정된 센싱 값들이 연속으로 구성되기 때문에 이를 분리해내고 해석하는 과정이 매우 임의적이고, 가변적이어서 연산을 반복적으로 수행하는 것은 시스템의 오류를 발생하게 하는 문제점이 있다. 본 시스템은 raw 데이터 형식의 USN 데이터를 초기 수집 이후 여러 프로세스들이 추상화된 데이터를 다룰 수 있도록 함으로써 데이터 처리에서 발생할 수 있는 오류를 제거하고자 데이터 추상화를 위한 상황인식 프레임워크를 개발하였다.

The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) developed a unique procedure for estimating direct runoff from storm rainfall. But, It is very difficult to estimate accurately flood hydrograph by SCS method, because the initial ion of Ia(0.2Sa) itself has lots of systematic errors and there is no investigation on Ia in the Korean watershed. The maximum storage capacity of Umax is calibrated in the DAWAST model and is related to the present ability of rainfall to be infiltrated into the unsaturated soil. Effective rainfall for design and real-time flood hydrograph can be estimate more reasonably by introducing new Ia relationship made from the rainfall-runoff data observed in the Korean watersheds.

This model is the daily streamflow model of the Korean watersheds has been developed to simulate the daily streamflow with the data of daily rainfall and pan evaporation. Parameters of this model are the water balance parameters composed Umax, Lmax, FC, CP, and CE and the routing parameters composed $U_i,\;k_1\;and\;k_2$. Among these parameters, CE value is applied one fixed value during the year and coefficient of initial ion K is empirically determined by 0.2. The object of this research is to improve the DAWAST model by application of the monthly value of CE for evapotranspiration and the revised K value for the initial abstraction.
