Despite the Openflow's switch migration occurs after the channel was established in secure manner (optional), the current cryptography protocol cannot prevent the insider attack as the attacker possesses a valid public/private key pair. There are methods such as the certificate revocation list (CRL) or the online certificate status protocol (OCSP) that tries to revoke the compromised certificate. However, these methods require a management system or server that introduce additional overhead for the communication. Furthermore, these methods are not able to mitigate power abuse of an insider. In this paper, we propose a role-based identity-based cryptography (RB-IBC) that integrate the identity of the node along with its role so the nodes within the network can easily mitigate any role abuse of the nodes. Besides that, by combining with IBC, it will eliminate the need of exchanging certificates and hence improve the performance in a secure channel.

Although many papers about the interleaved boost converter(IBC) have been published, there are, unfortunately, no analytical and rigorous expressions for steady-state operation of the N-phase IBC. To understand the operating characteristics of the N-phase IBC, the averaged state equation and the general steady-state solutions are derived in this paper. The general expressions of the current unbalance due to the parameter mismatch, the inductor and input current ripples, and the output voltage ripple are also presented. Through the analytical expressions presented, the steady-state characteristics of the N-phase IBC are analyzed theoretically and verified experimentally.

This paper proposes an early termination method of a block vector search for fast encoding of high efficiency video coding (HEVC) screen content coding (SCC). In the proposed algorithm, two blocks indicated by two block vector predictors (BVPs) were first employed as an intra block copy (IBC) search. If the sum of absolute difference (SAD) value of the block is less than a threshold defined empirically, an IBC BV search is terminated early. The initial threshold for early termination is derived by statistical analysis and it can be modified adaptively based on a quantization parameter (QP). The proposed algorithm is evaluated on SCM-2.0 under all intra (AI) coding configurations. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm reduces IBC BV search time by 29.23% on average while the average BD-rate loss is 0.41% under the HEVC SCC common test conditions (CTC).

IBC 태양전지에서 후면 pn 접합의 형성은 전기적 특성 및 광학적 특성을 결정짓는 결정적인 요인이다. 하지만 후면 pn 접합 형성을 위한 실험적인 분석 방법에는 많은 시간과 노력이 필요하며 많은 시행착오를 겪어야 한다. 따라서 이러한 시간과 노력을 줄이고 실험을 하기 이전에 결과를 예측하여 실험의 방향을 제시하고자 simulation을 이용하여 IBC 태양전지의 후면 pn 접합 형성 구조와 doping profile에 따른 전기적, 광학적 특성을 예측하고 효과적인 특성을 가질 수 있는 구조를 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 modeling 함수를 통한 2차원 ATLAS software를 이용하여 특성을 분석하였다. 그리고 태양전지에 입사되는 빛의 세기 및 파장대역별로 생성되는 광생성 전류 및 전압과 같은 전기적 특성과 빛의 경로분석에 따른 광학적 특성을 분석하여하여 IBC 태양전지에 적합한 pn 접합 형성 구조를 제시하고자 한다.

Background: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is an aggressive form of locally advanced breast cancer characterized by rapidly progressive breast erythema, pain and tenderness, oedema and paeu d'orange appearance. It accounts for 1-3% of all newly diagnosed cases of breast cancer in the west. Data on IBC from India are lacking. The aim of our study was to assess the clinical-pathological parameters and outcome of IBC at, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, a large tertiary care centre. Materials and Methods: We screened 3,650 breast cancer cases registered from January 2004 to December 2012 and found 41 cases of IBC. Data included demographics as well as clinical, radiological and histopathological characteristics, and were collected from clinical case records using the International Classification of Diseases code (C-50). Patients who presented with IBC as a recurrence, or who had a neglected and advanced breast cancer that simulated an IBC were excluded from this study. Results: The median age was 45 years (range 23-66). The median duration of symptoms was 5 months. The American Joint Committee on Cancer stage (AJCC) distribution was Stage III - 26 and IV - 15 patients. Estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) positivity and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu) positivity were 50%, 46% and 60%, respectively. Triple negativity was found in 15% of the cases. All the non metastatic IBC patients received anthracycline and/ or taxane based chemotherapy followed by modified radical mastectomy, radiotherapy and hormonal therapy as indicated. Pathological complete remission rate was 15%. At a median follow-up of 30 months, the 3 year relapse free survival and overall survival were 30% and 40%respectively. Conclusion: IBC constituted 1.1% of all breast cancer patients at our centre. One third of these had metastatic disease at presentation. Hormone positivity and Her2 neu positivity were found in 50% and 60% of the cases, respectively.

Usually the analyses of structures are carried out by assuming the base of structures to be fixed. However, the soil beneath foundation alters the earthquake loading and varies the response of structure. Hence, it is not realistic to analyze structures by considering it to be fixed. The importance of soil-structure interaction was realized from the past failures of massive structures by neglecting the effect of soil in seismic analysis. The analysis of massive structures requires soil flexibility to be considered to avoid failure and ensure safety. Present study, considers the seismic behavior of multi-storey reinforced concrete narrow and wide buildings of various heights with and without shear wall supported on raft foundation incorporating the effect of soil flexibility. Analysis of the three dimensional models of six different shear wall positions founded on four different soils has been carried out using finite element software LS DYNA. The study investigates the differences in spectral acceleration coefficient (Sa/g), base shear and storey shear obtained following the seismic provisions of Indian standard code IS: 1893 (2002) (IS) and International building code IBC: 2012 (IBC). The base shear values obtained as per IBC provisions are higher than IS values.

Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFET belongs to the family of wide-band gap devices with inherit property of low switching and conduction losses. The stable operation of SiC MOSFET at higher operating temperatures has invoked the interest of researchers in terms of its application to high power density (HPD) power converters. This paper presents a performance study of SiC MOSFET based two-phase interleaved boost converter (IBC) for regulation of avionics bus voltage in more electric aircraft (MEA). A 450W HPD, IBC has been developed for study, which delivers 28V output voltage when supplied by 24V battery. A gate driver design for SiC MOSFET is presented which ensures the operation of converter at 250kHz switching frequency, reduces the miller current and gate signal ringing. The peak current mode control (PCMC) has been employed for load voltage regulation. The efficiency of SiC MOSFET based IBC converter is compared against Si counterpart. Experimentally obtained efficiency results are presented to show that SiC MOSFET is the device of choice under a heavy load and high switching frequency operation.

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to examine the extent to which internal brand communication (IBC) impacts on brand commitment (BC). Research design, data, and methodology - A structured questionnaire has been built and distributed on a total sample of 650 banking staff working in five public banks in Pakistan. Results - The findings of PLS-SEM revealed that besides the indirect effect of internal brand communication (IBC) on brand commitment via brand knowledge, the study also exposes a direct positive effect of IBC on brand commitment. This study also reveals that brand commitment is affected by brand knowledge and internal brand communication practices. The result of mediation reveals that brand knowledge partially mediated the relationship between independent and dependent variables. Practical implications- This study empirically validates that internal brand communication and brand knowledge are prerequisites for brand commitment. Therefore, managers, particularly in-service enterprises, should provide sufficient IBC practices and appropriate brand knowledge to enhance employees' brand commitment. Conclusions - The comprehensive analysis of the impact of brand knowledge on the proposed relationship. It further adds up to the branding literature, which is mostly qualitative and lacks empirical validation.

Aim: To report epidemiologic and anatomoclinical transitions of inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) in Tunisia. Materials and Methods: Data including clinico-pathological data for 208 cases of T4d or PEV 3 non-metastatic breast cancer diagnosed between 2005 and 2010 were collected from patient records. Chi2 and Z tests were used to compare variables with two Tunisian historical series and a series about Arab-American patients. Results: Thirty three percent of our patients had their first child before 23 years of age and 56% had their menarche before 12 years, 75% never receiving oral contraception. Obesity was observed in 42% of women and IBC occurred during pregnancy in 13% of cases. Tumor grade was II-III in 90% of cases, HR was negative in 52%, HER2 was over expressed in 31% and invasion of more than 3 axillary nodes occurred in 18% of patients. We observed a pCR rate of 19% after neoadjuvant treatment (anthracyline-taxane used in 79%, trastuzumab in 27% ). Compared to historical Tunisian series (since 1996), IBC epidemiology remained stable in terms of median age, menopausal status and obesity. However we observed a significant decrease in median clinical tumor size and number of positive axillary lymph nodes. Comparison to IBC in Arab-Americans showed a significant difference in terms of median age, menopausal status, positivity of hormonal receptors and educational level. Conclusions: Our assessment of epidemiologic transition showed a reduction of clinco-pathological stage of IBC, keeping the same characteristics as compared to Tunisian historical series over a period of 14 years. Features seem to be different in Arab-American patients, probably related to migration, "occidentalization" of life style and improvement in socio-economic level.

본 논문은 상호 간 간섭을 주는 두 개의 다중입력 다중출력 간섭 브로드캐스트 채널 (MIMO-IBC: Multiple input multiple output-interfering broadcast channel)에서 공통된 잡음 없는 백본(backbone)망을 통해 두 기지국이 상호간의 사용자 데이터를 공유할 수 있을 때의 공간적 다중화 이득 (SMG: Spatial multiplexing gain)의 일반적인 공식을 유도하였다. 본 MIMO-IBC 모델은 다중안테나를 갖는 두 개의 기지국과 각각 다수의 다중안테나 사용자가 있고, 모두 고정된 채널을 통해 독립적인 메시지를 송신한다고 가정한다. 최종 유도된 결과로부터 다양한 상황의 안테나 분포뿐 만 아니라 기지국 협력 유무에 따른 공간적 다중화 이득의 변화를 정량적으로 관찰할 수 있다. 그리고 사용자들 사이에 완전한 협력이 되는 상황과 본 MIMO-IBC 모델에서의 유도된 SMG 결과를 비교하였다.
