  • This paper describes the characteristics of a poly 3C-SiC micro heater which was fabricated on AlN(0.1 $\mu$m)/3C-SiC(1.0 $\mu$m) suspended membranes by surface micro-machining technology. The 3C-SiC and AlN thin films which have wide energy band gap and very low lattice mismatch were used sensors for high temperature and voltage environments. The 3C-SiC thin film was used as micro heaters and temperature sensor materials simultaneously. The implemented 3CSiC RTD(resistance of temperature detector) and the power consumption of micro heaters were measured and calculated. The TCR(thermal coefficient of the resistance) of 3C-SiC RTD is about -5200 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ within a temperature range from 25 $^{\circ}C$ to 50 $^{\circ}C$ and -1040 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ at 500 $^{\circ}C$. The micro heater generates the heat about 500 $^{\circ}C$ at 10.3 mW. Moreover, durability of 3C-SiC micro heaters in high voltages is better than Pt micro heaters. A thermal distribution measured and simulated by IR thermovision and COMSOL is uniform on the membrane surface.

  • The investigation of microscopic precision in high speed endmilling is necessary for machinability evaluation, and the environmentally conscious machining technology have more important position in recent machining process. The microscopic precision of workpiece is influenced by machining environments variation as cutting fluid type and lubricant method. In this study, the cutting forces according to variation of cooling and lubrication are investigated by specially designed tool dynamometer. And the surface roughness, micro hardness and residual stress are evaluated according to machining environment. The characteristics of damaged layer in environmentally conscious machining and conventional machining using cutting fluid are compared experimentally.

  • The study on damaged layer is necessary for machinability improvement in micro machining. The damaged layer in metal cutting is derived from plastic deformation and transformation of metal structure. The damaged layer affects micro mold life and micro machine parts. In this study, the damaged layer of micro machined surface of copper is evaluated according to various machining condition. The damaged layer structure and metallurgical characteristics are measured by optical microscope, and evaluated by cutting forces and surface roughness. The scale of this damaged layer depends on cutting process parameters and machining environments. By experimental results, depth of damaged layer was increased with increasing of cutting depth, also the damaged layer is less occurred in down-milling compared to up-milling during micro endmilling operation.

  • RSVP was published as a resource reservation protocol to guarantee QoS for realtime applications in wired network environments. As mobile application services in wireless network environments are more popular, QoS guaranteeing problem becomes an important issue in mobile computing environments. Therefore, the researches about cooperation between RSVP and Mobile IP supporting mobility in mobile computing environments are activating today. In this paper, we propose I-MRSVP(Integrated-Mobile RSVP), a QoS guaranteed resource reservation protocol supporting the integrated mobility in mobile computing environments. I-MRSVP protocol supports the integrated mobility providing interoperability between Mobile IP-based macro cells and Cellular IP-based micro cells. To minimize resource reservation overheads, it provides efficient resource reservation functions by using the signal strength based predictive resource reservation scheme.

  • Zero Trust, characterized by the principle of "Never Trust, Always Verify," represents a novel security paradigm. The proliferation of remote work and the widespread use of cloud services have led to the establishment of Work From Anywhere (WFA) environments, where access to corporate systems is possible from any location. In such environments, the boundaries between internal and external networks have become increasingly ambiguous, rendering traditional perimeter security models inadequate to address the complex and diverse nature of cyber threats and attacks. This research paper introduces the implementation principles of Zero Trust and focuses on the Micro Segmentation approach, highlighting its relevance in mitigating the limitations of perimeter security. By leveraging the risk management framework provided by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), this paper proposes a comprehensive procedure for the adoption of Zero Trust. The aim is to empower organizations to enhance their security strategies.

  • In this paper, we analyze the performance of MicroVM when running AI applications on an edge computing environment and whether it can replace current container technology and traditional virtual machines. To achieve this, we set up Docker container, Firecracker MicroVM and KVM virtual machine environments on a Raspberry Pi 4 and executed representative AI applications in each environment. We analyze the inference time, total CPU usage and trends over time and file I/O performance on each environment. The results show that there is no significant performance difference between MicroVM and container when running AI applications. Moreover, on average, a stable inference time over multiple trials was observed on MicroVM. Therefore, we can confirm that executing AI applications using MicroVM instead of container or heavy-weight virtual machine is suitable for an edge computing.

  • This study is to develop a technique for micro-vibration analysis and control of concrete slabs to fulfil the vibration criteria for working environments. The proposed technique is for determining the unknown forces from accelerance of two concerned points and the micro-vibration analysis and control of concrete slabs are then validated by numerical model and structural tests. And it is recommended that the natural frequency of structures for micro-vibration control design should be above 25 Hz~30 Hz, and 1.5 times forcing frequency in case of 3~5% structural damping ratio of concrete structures.

  • This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of micro heaters built on AlN($0.1{\mu}m$)/3C-SiC($1{\mu}m$) suspended membranes by surface micromachining technology. In this work, 3C-SiC and AlN films are used for high temperature environments. Pt thin film was used as micro heaters and temperature sensor materials. The resistance of temperature sensor and the power consumption of micro heaters were measured and calculated. The heater is designed for operating temperature up to about $800^{\circ}C$ and can be operated at about $500^{\circ}C$ with a power of 312 mW. The thermal coefficient of the resistance(TCR) of fabricated Pt resistance of temperature detector(RTD)'s is 3174.64 ppm/$^{\circ}C$. A thermal distribution measured by IR thermovision is uniform on the membrane surface.

  • Flagellate bacteria such as Escherichia coli or Serratia marcescens possess a remarkable motility system based on a reversible rotary motor. We have employed S. marcescens as microactuators in low Reynolds number fluidic environments to move a larger engineering element around. Microstructures fabricated using conventional microfabrication techniques are blotted on the swarm plate, which leaves a bacterial monolayer on the surface of the microstructure. We have investigated microstructures powered by bacteria to determine how cell orientation on the microstructure surface relates to the swarming patterns as well as how the orientation is affected by the blotting process. This study will help to refine directional control of bacterial transporters by exploiting bacterial sensory mechanisms.
