  • Rayleigh damping model is recommended in the recently developed Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering (PBEE) methodology, but this methodology does not provide sufficient information due to the complexity of the damping mechanism. Furthermore, each Rayleigh-type damping model may have its individual limitations. In this study, Rayleigh-type damping models that are used widely in engineering practice are discussed. The seismic performance of a large-span single-layer latticed dome subjected to earthquake ground motions is investigated using different Rayleigh damping models. Herein a simulation technique is developed considering low cycle fatigue (LCF) in steel material. In the simulation technique, Ramberg-Osgood steel material model with the low cycle fatigue effect is used to simulate the non-uniformly distributed material damping and low cycle fatigue damage in the structure. Subsequently, the damping forces of the structure generated by different damping models are compared and discussed; the effects of the damping ratio and roof load on the damping forces are evaluated. Finally, the low cycle fatigue damage values in sections of members are given using these damping models. Through a comparative analysis, an appropriate Rayleigh-type damping model used for a large span single-layer latticed dome subjected to earthquake ground motions is determined in terms of the existing damping models.

  • Presently, optical burst switching (OBS) technology is under study as a promising solution for the backbone of the optical Internet in the near future because OBS eliminates the optical buffer problem at the switching node with the help of no optical/electro/optical conversion and guarantees class of service without any buffering. To implement the OBS network, there are a lot of challenging issues to be solved. The edge router, burst offset time management, and burst assembly mechanism are critical issues. In addition, the core router needs data burst and control header packet scheduling, a protection and restoration mechanism, and a contention resolution scheme. In this paper, we focus on the burst assembly mechanism. We present a novel data burst generation algorithm that uses hysteresis characteristics in the queueing model for the ingress edge node in optical burst switching networks. Simulation with Poisson and self-similar traffic models shows that this algorithm adaptively changes the data burst size according to the offered load and offers high average data burst utilization with a lower timer operation. It also reduces the possibility of a continuous blocking problem in the bandwidth reservation request, limits the maximum queueing delay, and minimizes the required burst size by lifting up data burst utilization for bursty input IP traffic.

  • The widespread use of the Internet and the maturing of digital video technology have led to an increase in various streaming media application. However, new classes of hosts such as mobile devices are gaining popularity, while the transmission became more heterogeneous. Due to the characteristics of mobile networks such as low speed, high error bit rate, etc., the applications over the wireless channel have different needs and limitations from desktop computers. An intermediary between two communicating endpoints to hide the heterogeneous network links is thought as one of the best approaches. In this paper, we adopted the concept of inter-packet gap and the sequence number between continuously received packets as the error discriminator, and designed an adaptive packet sizing mechanism to improve the network efficiency under varying channel conditions. Based on the proposed mechanism, the packetization scheme with error protection is proposed to scalable encoded video delivery. Finally, simulation results reveal that our proposed mechanism can react to the varying BER conditions with better network efficiency and gain the obvious improvement to video quality for stored MPEG-4 FGS video delivery.

  • This paper proposes a mechanism that guarantees secured performance against DDoS attack to protect data from free-roaming agent. Also, as it makes up QCRT(query chain relationship tree) structure which is an enhanced chain relation of existing chain relations that improves extension, It also finds malicious elements. The proposed mechanism extends chain relationship of agent as well by checking chain relation structure as a structure according to the route of agent. For it complements existing weakness with single-side chain relation extension, it guarantees secure performance against DDoS and truncation attacks from mobile agent.

  • Recently, concomitant with a surge in numbers of Internet of Things (IoT) devices with various sensors, mobile crowdsensing (MCS) has provided a new business model for IoT. For example, a person can share road traffic pictures taken with their smartphone via a cloud computing system and the MCS data can provide benefits to other consumers. In this service model, to encourage people to actively engage in sensing activities and to voluntarily share their sensing data, providing appropriate incentives is very important. However, the sensing data from personal devices can be sensitive to privacy, and thus the privacy issue can suppress data sharing. Therefore, the development of an appropriate privacy protection system is essential for successful MCS. In this study, we address this problem due to the conflicting objectives of privacy preservation and incentive payment. We propose a privacy-preserving mechanism that protects identity and location privacy of sensing users through an on-demand incentive payment and group signatures methods. Subsequently, we apply the proposed mechanism to one example of MCS-an intelligent parking system-and demonstrate the feasibility and efficiency of our mechanism through emulation.

  • Without a proper protection mechanism for the signaling messages to be used for the mobility support in the Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6), it is also vulnerable to several security attacks such as redirect attack, MITM (Man-In-The-Middle) attack, replay attack and DoS (Denial of Service) attack as in Mobile IPv6. In this paper, we point out some problems of previous authentication mechanisms associated with PMIPv6, and also propose a new fast and secure authentication mechanism applicable to PMIPv6. In addition, it is also shown that the proposed one is more efficient and secure than the previous ones.

  • Recent development in wireless communication technology and mobile equipment like PDA, cellular phone and GPS makes location-based services (LBSs) popular. However, because, in the LBSs, users continuously request a query to LBS servers by using their exact locations, privacy information could be in danger. Therefore, a mechanism for users' privacy protection is required for the safe and comfortable use of LBSs by mobile users. For this, this paper propose a grid-based cloaking area creation scheme supporting continuous LBSs. The proposed scheme creates a cloaking area rapidly by using grid-based cell expansion to efficiently support the continuous LBSs. In addition, to generate a cloaking area which makes the exposure probability of a mobile user to a minimum, we compute a privacy protection degree by granting weights to mobile users. Finally, we show from a performance analysis that our cloaking scheme outperforms the existing cloaking schemes, in terms of service time, privacy protection degree.

  • Quality of Protection(QoP) provides a standard that can evaluate networks offering protection. Also, QoP estimates stability of the system by quantifying intensity of the security. Security should be established based on the circumstance which applied to appropriate level, and this should chose a security policy which fit to propose of network because it is not always proportioned that between stability of security mechanism which is used at network and performance which has to be supported by system. With evolving wireless networks, a variety of security services are defined for providing secure wireless network services. In this paper, we propose a new QoP model which makes up for weak points of existing QoP model to choose an appropriate security policy for wireless network. Proposed new QoP model use objectively organized HVM by Flow-based Abnormal Traffic Detection Algorithm for constructing Utility function and relative weight for constructing Total reward function.

  • 위치 기반 서비스(LBS)의 확산으로 다양한 분야에서 활용할 수 있는 많은 양의 경로 데이터가 생성되고 있다. 하지만 공격자가 경로 데이터를 통해 잠재적으로 사용자의 개인정보를 유추할 수 있다는 문제점이 존재한다. 따라서 경로 데이터의 프라이버시를 보존하며 유용성을 유지할 수 있는 GAN(Generative Adversarial Network)을 사용한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 GAN은 생성된 결과물을 제어하지 못한다는 한계점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 ACGAN(Auxiliary classifier GAN)을 통해 생성된 결과물을 제어함으로써 경로 데이터의 민감한 정점을 숨기고, Attention mechanism을 결합하여 높은 유용성과 익명성을 제공하는 합성 경로 생성 모델인 TAP-GAN(Trajectory attention and protection-GAN)을 제안한다. 또한 모델의 성능을 입증하기 위해 유용성 및 익명성 실험을 진행하고, 선행 연구 모델과의 비교를 통해 TAP-GAN이 경로 데이터의 유용성을 보장하면서 사용자의 프라이버시를 효과적으로 보호할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
