Currently, LPWA(Low Power Wide Area) communication technology is widely used due to the development of IoT(Internet of Things) technology. Among the LPWA technologies, LoRaWAN(Long Range Wide Area Network) is widely used in many fields due to its wide coverage, stable communication speed, and low-cost modem module prices. In particular, LoRa(Long Range) can easily construct LoRaWAN with a dedicated gateway. So many organizations are building their own LoRaWAN-based networks. The LoRaWAN Gateway receives the LoRa packet transmitted from an End-device installed in the adjacent location, converts it into the Internet protocol, and sends the packet to the final destination server. Current LoRa Gateway uses a single-hop method, and each gateway must include a communication network capable of the Internet. If it is the mobile communication(i.e., WCDMA, LTE, etc.) network, it is required to pay the internet usage fee which is installed in each gateway. If the LoRa communication is frequent, the user has to spend a lot of money. We propose an idea on how to design a multi-hop protocol which enables packet routing between gateways by analyzing the LoRaWAN communication method implemented in its existing single-hop way in this paper. For this purpose, this paper provides an analysis of the standard specification of LoRaWAN and explains what was considered when such protocol was designed. In this paper, two gateways have been placed based on the functional role so as to make the multi-hop protocol realized: (i) hopping gateway which receives packets from the end-device and forwards them to another gateway; and (ii) main gateway which finally transmits packets forwarded from the hopping gateway to the server via internet. Moreover, taking into account that LoRaWAN is wireless mobile communication, a level-based routing method is also included. If the protocol proposed by this paper is applied to the LoRaWAN network, the monthly internet fee incurred for the gateway will be reduced and the reliability of data transmission will be increased.

As IoT equipment is commercialized, Bluetooth or wireless networks will be built into general living devices such as IP cameras, door locks, cars and TVs. Security for IoT equipment is becoming more important because IoT equipment shares a lot of information through the network and collects personal information and operates the system. In addition, web-based attacks and application attacks currently account for a significant portion of cyber threats, and security experts are analyzing the vulnerabilities of cyber attacks through manual analysis to secure them. However, since it is virtually impossible to analyze vulnerabilities with only manual analysis, researchers studying system security are currently working on automated vulnerability detection systems, and Firm-AFL, published recently in USENIX, proposed a system by conducting a study on fuzzing processing speed and efficiency using a coverage-based fuzzer. However, the existing tools were focused on the fuzzing processing speed of the firmware, and as a result, they did not find any vulnerability in various paths. In this paper, we propose IoTFirmFuzz, which finds more paths, resolves constraints, and discovers more crashes by strengthening the mutation process to find vulnerabilities in various paths not found in existing tools.

Domestic electric heater manufacturers are focusing on technology development to improve the efficiency of existing products. The electric heater for ship fuel is large in size and has high difficulty in miniaturization/high efficiency, so there are not many companies that try to develop technology yet. The existing electric heater has a structure of low heating efficiency because the contact time with the heat exchange tube of the heating medium is very short because the flow path of the ship engine fuel is monotonous. Since it is manufactured in a tubular shape, the volume is very large regardless of the heating efficiency. As a result, the tubular electric heater device applied by overseas advanced companies has difficulty in maintaining and repairing because it is necessary to decompose all tubular heaters when a specific part of the inside is damaged and if the heat exchange tube is damaged, all the heat exchange tubes must be decomposed. In this study, a basic study on plate type electric heaters capable of heating 10 tons of ship engine fuel per hour and setting a maximum temperature of up to 150℃ was conducted through a 250kW capacity plate type electric heater.

W ith the recent advancement of IoT (Internet of Things) technology, there has been much interest in the spatial query processing which energy-efficiently acquires sensor readings from sensor nodes inside specified geographical area of interests. Therefore, various kinds of spatial query processing algorithms and distributed spatial indexing methods have been proposed. They can minimize energy consumption of sensor nodes by reducing wireless communication among them using in-network spatial filtering technology. However, they cannot optimize multiple spatial queries which w ill be w idely used in IoT, because most of them have focused on a single spatial query optimization. Therefore, we propose a new multiple spatial query optimization algorithm which can energy-efficiently process multiple spatial queries in a sensor network. The algorithm uses a concept of 'query merging' that performs the merged set after merging multiple spatial queries located at adjacent area. Here, our algorithm makes a decision on which is better between the merged and the separate execution of queries. For such the decision making, we additionally propose the cost estimation method on the spatial query execution. Finally, we analyze and clarify our algorithm's distinguished features using the spatial indexing methods of GR-tree, SPIX, CPS.
