Program similarity analysis consists of substantial similarity and access. Substantial similarity is a judgment of how similarly the program source code is quantitatively. Access determines the degree of similarity by analyzing comments in the program or other contextual evidence. In the case of manuals, it may be the subject of legitimacy analysis. Manuals can be divided into three types as follows. First, a master manual is a document created during the development stage of a product. It is a user manual that contains all the functionality of the product and its derivatives. Second, the customer manual is a manual that is open only to the primary customer and orderer. Third, the user manual is a document that is applied to the final OEM production stage and is open to the end purchaser. In this paper, we compare the master manual seized from the suspect and the master manual provided by the suspect on the Internet. It then determines how similar this master manual is and includes the victim company's original and property values.

With the recent surge in exposure to fake advertising phishing sites in search engines, the damage caused by poor search quality and personal information leakage is increasing. In particular, the seriousness of the problem is worsening faster as the possibility of automating the creation of advertising phishing sites through tools such as ChatGPT increases. In this paper, the source code of fake advertising phishing sites was statically analyzed to derive structural commonalities, and among them, a detection crawler that filters sites step by step based on foreign domains and redirection was developed to confirm that fake advertising posts were finally detected. In addition, we demonstrate the need for new guide lines by verifying that the redirection page of fake advertising sites is divided into three types and returns different sites according to each situation. Furthermore, we propose new detection guidelines for fake advertising phishing sites that cannot be detected by existing detection methods.

Blockchain records all transactions issued by users, which are then replicated, stored, and shared by participants of the blockchain network. Therefore, the capacity of the ledger stored by participants continues to increase as the blockchain network operates. In order to address this issue, research is being conducted on methods that enhance storage efficiency while ensuring that valid values are stored in the ledger even in the presence of device failures or malicious participants. One direction of research is applying techniques such as Reed-Solomon encoding to the storage of blockchain ledgers. In this paper, we apply Reed-Solomon encoding to the key-value store used for ledger storage in an open-source blockchain, and measure the storage efficiency and increasing computational overhead. Experimental results confirm that storage efficiency increased by 86% while the increase in CPU operations required for encoding was only about 2.7%.

An API gateway is a high-availability component that provides a single entry point for API clients outside the cloud to connect with services inside the cloud. It has a high risk of creating bottlenecks and requires redeployment when services change. The Java language, in which several API gateways are implemented, announced technologies called GraalVM Native Image and Virtual Thread to overcome problems with deployment and operational performance. Applying these technologies to Java applications requires changes to the source code and deployment procedures. In this study, the performance of the API gateway was measured and analyzed when it operated based on GraalVM Native Image and Java Virtual Machine(JVM) and between Virtual Thread and Reactive thread processing methods. In this study, evaluation indicators were selected to evaluate deployment performance and operational performance, and the performance of the evaluation indicators was measured and evaluated in four environments.

The accurate determination of formation density and the physical properties of rocks is the most critical logging tasks which can be obtained using gamma-ray transport and detection tools. Though the simulation works published so far have considerably improved the knowledge of the parameters that govern the responses of the detectors in these tools, recent studies have found considerable differences between the results of using a conventional model of a homogeneous mixture of formation and fluid and an inhomogeneous fractured medium. It has increased concerns about the importance of the complexity of the model used for the medium in simulation works. In the present study, we have suggested two various models for the flow of the fluid in porous media and fractured rock to be used for logging purposes. For a typical gamma-gamma logging tool containing a ¹³⁷Cs source and two NaI detectors, simulated by using the MCNPX code, a simplified porous (SP) model in which the formation is filled with elongated rectangular cubes loaded with either mineral material or oil was investigated. In this model, the oil directly reaches the top of the medium and the connection between the pores is not guaranteed. In the other model, the medium is a large 3-D matrix of 1 cm³ randomly filled cubes. The designed algorithm to fill the matrix sites is so that this realistic random (RR) model provides the continuum growth of oil flow in various disordered directions and, therefore, fulfills the concerns about modeling the rock textures consist of extremely complex pore structures. For an arbitrary set of oil concentrations and various formation materials, the response of the detectors in the logging tool has been considered as a criterion to assess the effect of modeling for the distribution of pores in the formation on simulation studies. The results show that defining a RR model for describing heterogeneities of a porous medium does not effectively improve the prediction of the responses of logging tools. Taking into account the computational cost of the particle transport in the complex geometries in the Monte Carlo method, the SP model can be satisfactory for gamma-gamma logging purposes.

India is a developing nation and has come with comprehensive way in modernizing its reducing poverty, economy and rising living standards for an outsized fragment of its residents. The STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education plays an important role in it. STEM is an educational curriculum that emphasis on the subjects of "science, technology, engineering, and mathematics". In traditional education scenario, these subjects are taught independently, but according to the educational philosophy of STEM that teaches these subjects together in project-based lessons. STEM helps the students in his holistic development. Youth unemployment is the biggest concern due to lack of adequate skills. There is a huge skill gap behind jobless engineers and the question arises how we can prepare engineers for a better tomorrow? Now a day's Industry 4.0 is a new fourth industrial revolution which is an intelligent networking of machines and processes for industry through ICT. It is based upon the usage of cyber-physical systems and Internet of Things (IoT). Industrial revolution does not influence only production but also educational system as well. IoT in academics is a new revolution to the Internet technology, which introduced "Smartness" in the entire IT infrastructure. To improve socio-economic status of the India students must equipped with 21st century digital skills and Universities, colleges must provide individual learning kits to their students which can help them in enhancing their productivity and learning outcomes. The major goal of this paper is to present a low cost, effective learning mechanism for STEM implementation using Raspberry Pi 3+ model (Single board computer) and Node Red open source visual programming tool which is developed by IBM for wiring hardware devices together. These tools are broadly used to provide hands on experience on IoT fundamentals during teaching and learning. This paper elaborates the appropriateness and the practicality of these concepts via an example by implementing a user interface (UI) and Dashboard in Node-RED where dashboard palette is used for demonstration with switch, slider, gauge and Raspberry pi palette is used to connect with GPIO pins present on Raspberry pi board. An LED light is connected with a GPIO pin as an output pin. In this experiment, it is shown that the Node-Red dashboard is accessing on Raspberry pi and via Smartphone as well. In the final step results are shown in an elaborate manner. Conversely, inadequate Programming skills in students are the biggest challenge because without good programming skills there would be no pioneers in engineering, robotics and other areas. Coding plays an important role to increase the level of knowledge on a wide scale and to encourage the interest of students in coding. Today Python language which is Open source and most demanding languages in the industry in order to know data science and algorithms, understanding computer science would not be possible without science, technology, engineering and math. In this paper a small experiment is also done with an LED light via writing source code in python. These tiny experiments are really helpful to encourage the students and give play way to learn these advance technologies. The cost estimation is presented in tabular form for per learning kit provided to the students for Hands on experiments. Some Popular In addition, some Open source tools for experimenting with IoT Technology are described. Students can enrich their knowledge by doing lots of experiments with these freely available software's and this low cost hardware in labs or learning kits provided to them.

In this paper, we present a multi-task debugging environment for Qplus-T embedded-system such as internet information appliances. We will propose the structure and functions of a remote multi-task debugging environment supporting environment effective ross-development. And, we are going enhance the communication architecture between the host and target system to provide more efficient cross-development environment. The remote development toolset called Q+Esto consists to several independent support tools: an interactive shell, a remote debugger, a resource monitor, a target manager and a debug agent. Excepting a debug agent, all these support tools reside on the host systems. Using the remote multi-task debugger on the host, the developer can spawn and debug tasks on the target run-time system. It can also be attached to already-running tasks spawned from the application or from interactive shell. Application code can be viewed as C/C++ source, or as assembly-level code. It incorporates a variety of display windows for source, registers, local/global variables, stack frame, memory, event traces and so on. The target manager implements common functions that are shared by Q+Esto tools, e.g., the host-target communication, object file loading, and management of target-resident host tool´s memory pool and target system´s symbol-table, and so on. These functions are called OPEn C APIs and they greatly improve the extensibility of the Q+Esto Toolset. The Q+Esto target manager is responsible for communicating between host and target system. Also, there exist a counterpart on the target system communicating with the host target manager, which is called debug agent. Debug agent is a daemon task on real-time operating systems in the target system. It gets debugging requests from the host tools including debugger via target manager, interprets the requests, executes them and sends the results to the host.

NIST(National Institute of Standards and Technology) has recently published SP 800-90B second draft which is the document for evaluating security of entropy source, a key element of a cryptographic random number generator(RNG), and provided a tool implemented on Python code. In SP 800-90B, the security evaluation of the entropy sources is a process of estimating min-entropy by several estimators. The process of estimating min-entropy is divided into IID track and non-IID track. In IID track, the entropy sources are estimated only from MCV estimator. In non-IID Track, the entropy sources are estimated from 10 estimators including MCV estimator. The running time of the NIST's tool in non-IID track is approximately 20 minutes and the memory usage is over 5.5 GB. For evaluation agencies that have to perform repeatedly evaluations on various samples, and developers or researchers who have to perform experiments in various environments, it may be inconvenient to estimate entropy using the tool and depending on the environment, it may be impossible to execute. In this paper, we propose high-speed implementations and an efficient memory usage technique for min-entropy estimation algorithm of SP 800-90B. Our major achievements are the three improved speed and efficient memory usage reduction methods which are the method applying advantages of C++ code for improving speed of MultiMCW estimator, the method effectively reducing the memory and improving speed of MultiMMC by rebuilding the data storage structure, and the method improving the speed of LZ78Y by rebuilding the data structure. The tool applied our proposed methods is 14 times faster and saves 13 times more memory usage than NIST's tool.

The paper discusses radiation dose of dual energy CT on which copper modulation layer, is mounted in order to improve diagnostic performance of the dual energy CT. The radiation dose is estimated using MCNPX and its results are compared with that of the conventional dual energy CT system. CT X-ray spectra of 80 and 120 kVp, which are usually used for thorax, abdominal, head, and neck CT scans, were generated by the SPEC78 code and were used for the source specification 'SDEF' card for MCNPX dose modeling. The copper modulation layer was located 20 cm away from a source covering half of the X-ray window. The radiation dose was measured as changing its thickness from 0.5 to 2.0 mm at intervals of 0.5 mm. Since the MCNPX tally provides only normalized values to a single particle, the dose conversion coefficients of F6 tally for the modulation layer-based dual energy CBCT should be calculated for matching the modeling results into the actual dose. The dose conversion coefficient is $7.2*10^4cGy/output$ that is obtained from dose calibration curve between F6 tally and experimental results in which GAFCHORMIC EBT3 films were exposed by an already known source. Consequently, the dose of the modulation layer-based dual energy cone beam CT is 33~40% less than that of the single energy CT system. On the basis of the results, it is considered that scattered dose produced by the copper modulation layer is very small. It shows that the modulation layer-based dual energy CBCT system can effectively reduce radiation dose, which is the major disadvantage of established dual energy CT.

This work proposes a time-shared 10b DAC based on a two-step resistor string to minimize the effective area of a DAC channel for driving each AMOLED display column. The proposed DAC shows a lower effective DAC area per unit column driver and a faster conversion speed than the conventional DACs by employing a time-shared DEMUX and a ROM-based two-step decoder of 6b and 4b in the first and second resistor string. In the second-stage 4b floating resistor string, a simple current source rather than a unity-gain buffer decreases the loading effect and chip area of a DAC channel and eliminates offset mismatch between channels caused by buffer amplifiers. The proposed 1-to-24 DEMUX enables a single DAC channel to drive 24 columns sequentially with a single-phase clock and a 5b binary counter. A 0.9pF sampling capacitor and a small-sized source follower in the input stage of each column-driving buffer amplifier decrease the effect due to channel charge injection and improve the output settling accuracy of the buffer amplifier while using the top-plate sampling scheme in the proposed DAC. The proposed DAC in a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS shows a signal settling time of 62.5ns during code transitions from '$000_{16}$' to '$3FF_{16}$'. The prototype DAC occupies a unit channel area of $0.058mm^2$ and an effective unit channel area of $0.002mm^2$ while consuming 6.08mW with analog and digital power supplies of 3.3V and 1.8V, respectively.
