  • With the swift growth of wireless technologies, an increasing number of users rely on the mobile services which can exchange information in mobile networks. Security is of key issue when a user tries to access those services in this network environment. Many authentication schemes have been presented with the purpose of authenticating entities and wishing to communicate securely. Recently, Chou et al. and Farash-Attari presented two ID authentication schemes. They both claimed that their scheme could withstand various attacks. However, we find that the two authentication schemes are vulnerable to trace attack while having a problem of clock synchronization. Additionally, we show that Farash-Attari's scheme is still susceptible to key-compromise impersonation attack. Therefore, we present an enhanced scheme to remedy the security weaknesses which are troubled in these schemes. We also demonstrate the completeness of the enhanced scheme through the Burrow-Abadi-Needham (BAN) logic. Security analysis shows that our scheme prevents the drawbacks found in the two authentication schemes while supporting better secure attributes. In addition, our scheme owns low computation overheads compared with other related schemes. As a result, our enhanced scheme seems to be more practical and suitable for resource-constrained mobile devices in mobile networks.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to systematically analyze the reliability and validity of Korean versions of mobility and gait assessment tools for patients with stroke. Methods: Two reviewers conducted an independent literature search and systematically reviewed the literature. Literature published until June of 2017 was searched using search engines for electronic databases. The 2 reviewers reviewed the title and abstract of each article. Among the articles examined, we read the full text of those judged to be suitable for our study. We classified the selected data into research methods and results. The determination was made through mutual agreement. Results: The reviewers selected 5 articles related to the purpose of this study. The DGI was found to be moderately associated with BBS, 10MWT, and TUG in intra-rater reliability (ICC=0.92), inter-rater reliability (ICC=0.88), and concurrent validity tests. The FGA demonstrated a high level of reliability with intra-rater (ICC=0.92-0.95) and inter-rater reliability (ICC=0.91, 0.95). The intra-rater reliability of the RMI was high at ICC=0.98. Its concurrent validity showed a high association with STREAM and BI. The intra-rater reliability of the MAS was ICC=0.75-0.99. Its inter-rater reliability was very high, exceeding 0.99. The inter-rater reliability of the Tinetti-gait Scale was ICC=0.91, and its concurrent validity was moderately associated with the DGI, 10WMT, OLST, FM-L/E, and STS. Conclusion: The results of this study revealed that the reliability and validity of the Korean versions of the mobility and gait assessment tools were high.

  • The use of chemical products to enhance and improve life is a widespread practice worldwide. But alongside the benefits of these products, there is also the potential for adverse effects to people or the environment. As a result, a number of countries or organizations have developed laws or regulations over the years that require information to be prepared and transmitted to those using chemicals, through labels or Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS). While these existing laws or regulations are similar in many respects, their differences are significant enough to result in different labels or MSDS for the same product in different countries. Given the reality of the extensive global trade in chemicals, and the need to develop national programs to ensure their safe use, transport, and disposal, it was recognized that a Globally harmonization system of classification and labeling of chemicals(GHS) would provide the foundation for such programs. This study offered complementary details of GHS classification criteria adopted in Korea by analyzing the differences in chemical classification system between UN and Korea Ministry of Labor. Also it is proposed that mutual agreement of information DB used is required by comparing classification results of chemicals in Korea, Japan, and EU. We offered the lists of information sources useful for chemical classification.

  • The fatigue life of welded joints is associated with crack initiation and propagation life. Theses cannot be easily separated, since the definition of crack initiation is vague due to the initiation of multiple cracks that are distributed randomly along the weld toes. In this paper a method involving a notch strain and fracture mechanical approach, which considers the characteristics of welded joints, e.g. welding residual stress and statistical characteristics of multiple cracks, is proposed, in an attempt to reasonably estimate these fatigue lives. The fatigue crack initiation life was evaluated statistically, e.g. the probability of failure occurrence in 2.3, 50 and $97.7\%$, in which the cyclic response of the local stress/strain hi the vicinity of the weld toes and notch factors derived by the irregular shape of the weld bead are taken into account. The fatigue crack propagation life was simulated by using Monte-Carlo method in consideration of the Ad-factor and the mechanical behavior of mutual interaction/coalescence between two adjacent cracks. The estimated total fatigue life, $(N_T)_{P50\%}$, as a sum of crack initiation and propagation life under the probability of failure occurrence in $50\%$ showed a good agreement with the experimental results. The developed technique for fatigue lift estimation enables to provide a quantitative proportion of crack initiation and propagation life in the total fatigue life due to the nominal stress range, ${\Delta}S$.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze sexual permissiveness in order to solve the problems it creates for setting up desirable sexual culture. Methods: This study used Walker and Avant's methods for concept analysis. Results: Sexual permissiveness is the favorable attitude that is agreed upon and accepted as physiological, socio-cultural, and moral sexuality of an independent human who was born in man or woman. The property of sexual permissiveness that is accepted overall the humans are sex generously, change over the course of growth. sex consciousness, and attitudes toward sexual activity change based on race, age and religion etc. The values and beliefs of individuals that were formed in social and cultural background are bipolar. It is mutually agreed upon and accepted that volunarary activities should be spontaneous. The antecedents of sexual permissiveness included achievement of sexual development, establishment of the relationship, and mutual agreement between them. The consequences included mature relationship with others, meeting sexual needs, and raising sexual problems. Conclusions: These results suggest further studies are required that refine the diverse attributes of the concept of sexual permissiveness. The sexual education and enlightenment should be conducted at the period of secondary sex character.

  • In a dynamic load distribution policies, each node gathers the current system sates information before making a decision on load balancing. Load balancing policies based on this strategy can suffer from processor thrashing. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm which attempts to decrease the frequency of the processor thrashing, the algorithm is based on the integration of three components. The first, the algorithm of which determine the size of jobs be transferred. The second, negotiation protocol with obtains a mutual agreement between a sender and a receiver on the transferring job size. And the third, a symmetrically-initiated location policy. The algorithm proposed in this paper used Siman IV as simulation tool to prove the improvement of performance. I analyzed the result of simulation, and compared with related works. The mean response time shows that there are no difference with existing policy, but appear a outstanding improvement in high load. The thrashing coefficient that shows the average response time, CPU overhead and the thrashing ratio at both the receiving and sending node has been used in the analysis. A significant improvement in the average response time and the CPU overhead ratio was detected using our algorithm when an overhead occurred in the system over other algorithm. The thrashing coefficient differed in the sending node and the receiving node of the system. Using our algorithm, the thrashing coefficient at the sending node showed more improvement when there was an overhead in the system, proving to be more useful. Therefore, it can be concluded that the thrashing ratio can be reduce by properly setting the maximum and minimum value of the system’s threshold queue.

  • After the introduction of Professional Engineer System to secure superior technical personnel in 1963, the engineering license regulations were introduced in 1995 - the person qualified with either the academic back ground or career in the construction field can be authorized as a construction engineer- to cope with higher demands for construction engineers caused by revitalization of construction business such as 2 million house construction. As a result, the number of construction engineers has been increased drastically since year 2000, which caused serious problems in utilizing top technical certificate, the PE's. Recently, relating to the opening of technology market according to WTO agreement and mutual authentication among countries and etc., the government is preparing legal and systematic foundations to guarantee the professionalism of engineers. Through the exact supply-demand forecast of PE's reflecting these systematic aspects, we are going to analyze the problems in the supply-demand of PE's and suggest the systematic improvement plans for managing the supply-demand of PE's. The result of this research can be used for building efficient and consistent raising and utilizing system of PE's as well as supply and demand system of qualified PE's

  • The DIAMETER protocol provides Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) transactions across the Internet. SIP(Session Initiation Protocol) will be used for new types of signaling, such as instant messaging and application level mobility across networks. And SIP will be a major signaling protocol for next generation wireless networks. But the Digest authentication scheme is not using a secure method of user authentication in SIP, and it is vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks or dictionary attacks. This study focused on designing a SIP proxy for interworking with AAA server with respect to user authentication and security analysis. We compared and analyzed the security aspects of the scenarios and propose two proposals that a response which include the user address and password-based mutual authentication and key agreement protocol. It is claimed to be more secure against common attacks than current scenarios.
