In this paper, we propose a novel block cipher mode of operation, which is known as the counter chain (CC) mode. The proposed CC mode integrates the cipher block chaining (CBC) block cipher mode of operation with the counter (CTR) mode in a consistent fashion. In the CC mode, the confidentiality and authenticity of data are assured by the CBC mode, while speed is achieved through the CTR mode. The proposed mode of operation overcomes the parallelization deficiency of the CBC mode and the chaining dependency of the counter mode. Experimental results indicate that the proposed CC mode achieves the encryption speed of the CTR mode, which is exceptionally faster than the encryption speed of the CBC mode. Moreover, our proposed CC mode provides better security over the CBC mode. In summary, the proposed CC block cipher mode of operation takes the advantages of both the Counter mode and the CBC mode, while avoiding their shortcomings.

The preliminary test for the dual mode plasma torch system was carried out to explore the operation properties in advance. The dual mode plasma torch system that is able to operate in transferred, non-transferred, or dual mode is very adequate for melting the mixed wastes including nonconductive materials such as concrete, asbestos, etc. since it exploits both the high efficiency of heat transfer to the melt in transferred mode and stable operation in non-transferred mode. Also, system operation including restarting is reliable and very easy. A stationary melter with a refractory structure was designed and manufactured considering the melting behavior of slags to minimize the refractory erosion. The power supply for the dual mode plasma torch system built with high power insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) modules has functions for both current control and voltage control and is sufficient to suppress the harmonics during the operation of the plasma torch. The power supply provides two different voltages for transferred operation and non-transferred. It is confirmed that the operation voltage in transferred is always higher than non-transferred. The dual mode plasma torch system was successfully developed and is under operation for a melting experiment to optimize operation data.

LEA is a lightweight block cipher developed in Korea in 2013. In this paper, among block cipher operation methods, CTR operation mode and GCM operation mode that provides confidentiality and integrity are implemented. In the LEA-CTR operation mode, we propose an optimization implementation that omits the operation between states through the state fixation and omits the operation through the pre-operation by utilizing the characteristics of the fixed nonce value of the CTR operation mode. It also shows that the proposed method is applicable to the GCM operation mode, and implements the GCM through the implementation of the GHASH function using the Galois Field(2¹²⁸) multiplication operation. As a result, in the case of LEA-CTR to which the proposed technique is applied on 32-bit RISC-V, it was confirmed that the performance was improved by 2% compared to the previous study. In addition, the performance of the GCM operation mode is presented so that it can be used as a performance indicator in other studies in the future.

If an error occurs in the automatic mode when the advanced teleoperator system performs a task in hostile environment then the automatic mode changes into the manual mode. The operation by the control program and the operation by a human recover the error in the manual mode. The system resumes the automatic mode and continues the given task. It is necessary to improve the manual mode in order to make the best use of a man-robot system, as a part of the human interface technique. Therefore, the error recovery task is performed by combining the operation by the control program representing autonomy of a robot and the operation by a human representing versatility of a human operator effectively in the view point of human factors engineering. The geometric inverse kinematics is used for the calculation of the robot joint values in the operation by the control program. The singularity operation error and the parameter operation error often occur in this procedure. These two operation errors increase the movement time of the robot and the coordinate reading time, during the error recovery task. A singularity algorithm, parameter algorithm and fuzzy control are studied so as to remove the disadvantages of geometric inverse kinematics. And the geometric straight line motion is studied so as to improve the disadvantages of the operation by a human.

Automatic Operation based on ATO (Automatic Train Operation) is necessary for driverless Light Rail Transit business. When this kind of driverless LRT operation plan is made, TPS (Train Performance Simulation) is traditionally simulated at all-out mode and coasting mode based on manual operation. Commercial schedule speed equals to all-out speed minus $9{\sim}15%$ make-up margin. Coasting mode TPS simulation is also run at commercial schedule speed to calculate run time and energy consumption. But TPS based on manual operation should make an improvement on accuracy in case of driverless LRT operation Plan. In this paper, new fast mode TPS simulation using ATO pattern is proposed and show near actual ATO result. The actual ATO pattern can be accurately simulated with the introduction of 4 parameters such as commercial braking rate, jerk, station stop profile and grade converted distance. Normal mode TPS simulation for commercial schedule speed can be designed to have fast mode trip time plus 3 seconds/km margin recommended by korean standard LRT specification.

A Dead-end mode operation is one of the best way to maximize the gas usage rate. But, some components of fuel cell stack like gas diffusion layer(GDL) or membrane can be damaged in dead-end mode operation. In this study, a Large Scale Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell(PEMFC) for a dead-end operation has been developed. The stack is composed with 4 cells which has over 400cm2 of active area. Hydrogen is used as a fuel, and oxygen is used as a oxidant. The dead-end operation performance was evaluated by a long-term dead-end mode operation. The fuel cell stack is operated over 1,500 hours in dead-end mode operating fuel cell test station. And the performance change of the fuel cell stack was investigated.

Several block cipher modes of operation have been proposed in the literature to protect sensitive information. However, different security analysis models have been presented for attacking them. The analysis indicated that most of the current modes of operation are vulnerable to several attacks such as known plaintext and chosen plaintext/cipher-text attacks. Therefore, this paper proposes a secure block cipher mode of operation to thwart such attacks. In general, the proposed mode combines one-time chain keys with each plaintext before its encryption. The challenge of the proposed mode is the generation of the chain keys. The proposed mode employs the logistic map together with a nonce to dynamically generate a unique set of chain keys for every plaintext. Utilizing the logistic map assures the dynamic behavior while employing the nonce guarantees the uniqueness of the chain keys even if the same message is encrypted again. In this way, the proposed mode called SPCBC can resist the most powerful attacks including the known plaintext and chosen plaintext/cipher-text attacks. In addition, the SPCBC mode improves encryption time performance through supporting parallelized implementation. Finally, the security analysis and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed mode is robust compared to the current modes of operation.

Foreign subsidiary operation modes can be broadly divided into horizontal subsidiaries and vertical subsidiaries. According to institutional theory, foreign subsidiary operation mode differs depending on the host country institution. This study examines the effects of formal and informal institution on the foreign subsidiary operational mode of Korean firms. As a result of the empirical analysis, the higher the cultural distance and the lower political risks, the more favored the vertical foreign operation mode than the horizontal foreign operation mode. On the other hand, the higher the economic freedom and the lower corruption, the more favored the horizontal foreign operation mode than the vertical foreign operation mode.

Because of the limitation of controllable operation variables for the wastewater treatment process with variable hydrodynamic flow patterns, it may preclude the use of this type of nutrient removal activated sludge process. As the operation variables, only temperature and dissolved oxygen (DO) have been used to operate the process. This study made an effort to improve treatment efficiency and operability of the process by the following methodologies: 1) process and operation data analysis using process simulation, 2) determination of optimal control logic or algorithm using a pilot-scaled experimental apparatus and its operations, and 3) application of experimental and simulation results to find the optimal process operation modes. In this study, it was found that the optimal operation mode named 'save mode' in the basis of process variables, such as the ammonia-nitrogen concentration of inlet flow, temperature and flow rate, can reduce the operation cost comparing with the present normal operation mode. And the stable conditions in nitrification were also shown by the proportional control of DO with the inlet air flow rate of blower and the mixing rate of mechanical aeration.

This paper propose seamless transfer operation between grid-connected and stand-alone mode in the three-phase inverter for microgrid. The inverter operates grid-connected mode and stand-alone mode. Grid-connected mode is the inverter connected to grid and stand-alone mode is to deliver energy to the load from inverter at grid fault. When conversion from gird-connected to stand-alone mode, the inverter changes current control to voltage control. When grid restored, the inverter system is conversion from stand-alone to grid-connected mode. In this case, load phase and grid phase are different. Therefore, synchronization is essential. Thus Seamless transfer operation stand-alone to grid-connected mode. In this paper, propose sealmless transfer operation between grid-connceted and stand-alome mode, and this method is verified through simulation and experiment.
