Global warming and climate change are increasing the intensity of typhoons and hurricanes and thus increasing the risk effects of typhoon and hurricane hazards on nuclear power plants (NPPs). To reflect these changes, a new NPP should be designed to endure design-basis hurricane wind speeds corresponding to an exceedance frequency of $10^{-7}/yr$. However, the short typhoon and hurricane observation records and uncertainties included in the inputs for an estimation cause significant uncertainty in the estimated wind speeds for return periods of longer than 100,000 years. A logic-tree framework is introduced to handle the epistemic uncertainty when estimating wind speeds. Three key parameters of a typhoon wind field model, i.e., the central pressure difference, pressure profile parameter, and radius to maximum wind, are used for constructing logic tree branches. The wind speeds of the simulated typhoons and the probable maximum wind speeds are estimated using Monte Carlo simulations, and wind hazard curves are derived as a function of the annual exceedance probability or return period. A logic tree decreases the epistemic uncertainty included in the wind intensity models and provides reasonably acceptable wind speeds.

Purpose - The purpose of this study was to explore and diagnose the characteristics and behavioural patterns of rural tourists after COVID-19 using decision tree analysis to classify and identify key segmentation groups. Design/methodology/approach - The CHAID algorithm was used as the analysis technique for the decision tree. The explanatory variables used in the analysis of each decision tree model were demographic variables and rural tourism usage behaviour and perception variables, and the target variables were the preferences of rural tourists' activities after COVID-19. From the Rural Tourism 2020 survey data, 614 samples with rural tourism experience were extracted and used in the analysis. Findings - The variables that significantly explained the preference for each type of rural tourism activity after COVID-19 were rural tourism safety perception, repeated visits to the region, rural tourism priority activity, rural tourism accommodation experience, gender, age group, marital status, occupation, and education level. Among them, rural tourism safety perception was the most important explanatory variable in each analysis model. Research implications or Originality - Overall, to promote rural tourism, it is necessary to enhance the safety image of rural tourism, strengthen loyalty programs for repeat visitors, and develop customized products that reflect the preferred trends of rural tourism.

In this paper, the proposed watermark algorithm is based on energy distribution of the subband coefficients in the frequency domain and edge of the original image in the spacial domain. Out of these information, the KeyMap which decides the embedded position of watermark is produced. And then the binary watermark is embedded into the wavelet coefficient of LL3 subband using KeyMap and LFSR(Linear Feedback Shift Register).

Secure multimedia multicast applications involve group communications where group membership requires secured dynamic key generation and updating operations. Such operations usually consume high computation time and therefore designing a key distribution protocol with reduced computation time is necessary for multicast applications. In this paper, we propose a new key distribution protocol that focuses on two aspects. The first one aims at the reduction of computation complexity by performing lesser numbers of multiplication operations using a ternary-tree approach during key updating. Moreover, it aims to optimize the number of multiplication operations by using the existing Karatsuba divide and conquer approach for fast multiplication. The second aspect aims at reducing the amount of information communicated to the group members during the update operations in the key content. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated based on computation and communication complexity and a comparative performance analysis of various key distribution protocols is provided. Moreover, it has been observed that the proposed algorithm reduces the computation and communication time significantly.

Nowadays wine is increasingly enjoyed by a wider range of consumers, and wine certification and quality assessment are key elements in supporting the wine industry to develop new technologies for both wine making and selling processes. There have been many attempts to construct a more methodical approach to the assessment of wines, but most of them rely on objective decision rather than subjective judgement. In this paper, we propose a data mining approach to predict human wine taste preferences that is based on easily available analytical tests at the certification step. We used sequential forward selection and decision tree for this purpose. Experiments with the wine quality dataset from the UC Irvine Machine Learning Repository demonstrate the accuracies of 76.7% and 78.7% for red and white wines respectively.

The rectilinear Steiner tree problem (RSTP) is to find a minimum-length rectilinear interconnection of a set of terminals in the plane. It is well known that the solution to this problem will be the minimal spanning tree (MST) on some set Steiner points. The RSTP is known to be NP-complete. The RSTP has received a lot of attention in the literature and heuristic and optimal algorithms have been proposed, A key performance measure of the algorithm for the RSTP is the reduction rate that is achieved by the difference between the objective value of the RSTP and that of the MST without Steiner points. A hybrid evolution strategy on RSTP based upon the Prim algorithm was presented. The computational results show that the evolution strategy is better than the previously proposed other heuristic. The average reduction rate of solutions from the evolution strategy is about 11%, which is almost similar to that of optimal solutions.

The Euclidean steiner tree problem (ESTP) is to find a minimum-length euclidean interconnection of a set of points in the plane. It is well known that the solution to this problem will be the minimal spanning tree (MST) on some set steiner points, and the ESTP is NP-complete. The ESTP has received a lot of attention in the literature, and heuristic and optimal algorithms have been proposed. In real field, heuristic algorithms for ESTP are popular. A key performance measure of the algorithm for the ESTP is the reduction rate that is achieved by the difference between the objective value of the ESTP and that of the MST without steiner points. In recent survey for ESTP, the best heuristic algorithm showed around $3.14\%$ reduction in the performance measure. We present a evolution programming (EP) for ESTP based upon the Prim algorithm for the MST problem. The computational results show that the EP can generate better results than already known heuristic algorithms.

RS 시스템의 가장 큰 특징은 일대 다수의 그룹 및 지령 통신방식이다. TRS 시스템의 구성은 여러개의 그룹으로 구성되며, 각 그룹은 업무내용에 관련된 유사한 목적을 가진 사용자들의 단말기로 구성된다. 다양한 형태의 공격에 노출될 수 있으며, 대규모 통신을 위한 키 분배 혹은 설정에 많은 문제점을 가질 수 있다. 본 고에서는 TRS 상에서 안전한 통신을 수행하는데 있어 필수 요소인 회의용 키 분배 방식을 고찰한다. 본 방식은 통신 회수를 줄이면서도 사용자 인증을 수행할 수 있는 효율적인 Tree 기반의 회의용 키 분배 방식을 제안한다.

Group communication is becoming increasingly popular in Internet applications such as videoconferences, online chatting programs, games, and gambling. For secure communications, the integrity of messages, member authentication, and confidentiality must be provided among group members. To maintain message integrity, all group members use the Group Key (GK) for encrypting and decrypting messages while providing enough security to protect against passive attacks. Tree-based Group Diffie-Hellman (TGDH) is an efficient group key agreement protocol to generate the GK. TGDH assumes all members have an equal computing power. One of the characteristics of distributed computing and grid environments is heterogeneity; the member can be at a workstation, a laptop or even a mobile computer. Member reordering in the TDGH protocol could potentially lead to an improved protocol; such reordering should capture the heterogeneity of the network as well as latency. This research investigates dynamic reordering mechanisms to consider not only the overhead involved but also the scalability of the proposed protocol.
