IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force)는 신속하고 안전한 이동성 서비스를 위하여 네트워크 자원의 사용을 안전하게 하고 법적으로 보장하는 핵심기술 같은 많은 의미있는 작업들을 해오고 있으며 기존의 MIPv6(Mobile IPv6)에서 핸드오버 지연과 시그널링 오버헤드 같은 문제를 보완하기 위하여 HMIPv6(Hierarchical Mobile IPv6)를 제안하였다. 현재 HMIPv6에 관한 연구의 대부분은 HMIPv6와 AAA(Authentication, Authorization, Accounting) 프로토콜 사이의 상호작용 절차를 최적화하기 위한 방법에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 해당 논문에서는 AAA 절차에서 인증대기를 최소화하는데 중점을 둔 비용효율적인 계층 인증 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법에서는 MAP(Mobility Anchor Point)에 배포되어진 AAA 서버들, 그리고 홈 도메인 안에 있는 AAA 서버를 대신하는 브로커들의 계층적 AAA 아키텍처를 제안한다. 이 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안된 기법이 이전의 전통적인 인증 조합 모델링과 비교하여 핸드오프 지연과 인증대기 시간이 상당히 줄어들었음을 보여준다.

HMIPv6 (Hierarchical Mobile IPv6)는 MAP (Mobility Anchor Point)을 이용하여 이동노드를 효율적으로 관리하는 방안을 제시하였다. MAP 에 걸리는 부하는 HMIPv6 로 구성된 네트워크에 진입한 이동노드가 어느 MAP 을 선정하느냐에 따라 달라진다. MAP 을 선정하는 방법으로 이동노드의 이동속도나 MAP 과 이동노드의 거리를 고려하여 선택하는 방법 등이 연구되었다. 하지만 이들은 각각 이동속도 측정을 위한 추가적인 비용이 발생하거나 특정 MAP 에 몰리는 현상을 효과적으로 해결하지 못하는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문은 HMIPv6 로 구성된 네트워크에서 네트워크 관리지역의 중앙부분을 지나는 이동노드가 바깥부분을 지나는 이동노드보다 해당 네트워크에 오래 머무른다는 사실에 착안하여 지역정보 기반의 MAP 선정기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 우선 네트워크 관리지역 내에 분포된 MAP 들을 지역정보에 기반하여 계층적으로 구성한다. 그 다음, 중앙부분을 지나는 이동노드에게 보다 넓은 지역을 담당하는 높은 레벨의 MAP 을 선정하고 바깥부분을 지나는 이동노드에게 보다 좁은 지역을 담당하는 낮은 레벨의 MAP 을 선정한다. 이로써 전체적으로 발생하는 바인딩 업데이트 비용을 줄이고 MAP 의 로드밸런싱 효과를 얻는다.

핸드오버가 발생하는 이동망 환경에서 주요 이슈 중 하나는 핸드오버 후 MN(Mobile Node)의 트래픽이 전송될 새로운 경로 상에 자원 재예약을 위한 지연 시간을 최소화하는 것이다. 이를 위해, 데이터 전달 경로가 변경된 경로에서만 자원예약 시그널링이 이루어지도록 CRN(Crossover Node)을 발견하는 것이 중요하다. 이동망 환경에서 자원 재예약을 위한 CRN은 SID(Session ID)를 이용하여 발견될 수 있다. 그러나 HMIPv6 네트워크에서 MAP(Mobility Anchor Point)과 HA(Home Agent)간 군집(Aggregate) 자원 예약이 이루어진 경우에서는 SID를 이용하여 CRN을 발견할 수 없다. 왜냐하면, MN의 핸드오버 후, 종단간 SID는 동일할지라도 이전 MAP과 HA간 설립된 세션의 군집 SID가 새로운 MAP과 HA간 설립된 세션의 군집 SID와 다르기 때문이다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 HMIPv6 네트워크에서의 CRN 발견방안을 제안한다. 제안하는 방안에서는 시그널링 메시지에 이전 군집 세션 정보를 포함하여 전달함으로서 시그널링 메시지가 목적지까지 도달하기 전에 CRN이 발견될 수 있도록 하였다. 제안하는 방안은 군집 자원예약이 갖는 시그널링 및 플로우별 상태 정보 감소 효과를 그대로 유지하면서, MN의 핸드오버 후, 자원 재예약을 위한 지연 시간을 단축시킴으로서 통신 성능을 향상 시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Objective: To investigate whether the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) clinically defines improvement of Berg Balance Scale (BBS) scores in people with acute stroke in response to rehabilitation. Design: Retrospective study. Methods: Seventy-three participants with acute stroke participated in the study. Balance evaluation was performed using the BBS. All patients received rehabilitation with physical therapy for 4 weeks, 5 times a week, for 2 hours and 20 minutes a day. An anchor-based approach using the clinical global impression was used to determine the MCID of the BBS. The MCID was used to define the minimum change in the BBS total score (postintervention-preintervention) that was needed to perceive at least a 3-point improvement on the global rating of change. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was used to define the cut-off values of the optimal MCID of the BBS in order to discriminate between improvement and no improvement groups. Results: The optimal MCID cut-off point for the BBS change scores was 12.5 points for males with a sensitivity (Sn) of 0.62 and a specificity (Sp) of 0.89, and 12.5 points for females with a Sn of 0.69 and Sp of 0.85. The area under the curve of the ROC curve for all participants were 0.84 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.72; 0.95, p<0.001), and 0.89 (95% CI, 0.77; 1.00, p<0.001), respectively. Conclusions: The MCID for improvement in balance as measured by the BBS was 13.5 points, indicating that the MCID does clinically detect changes in balance abilities in persons with stroke.

A rigid spino-pelvic fixation to anchor long constructs is crucial to maintain the stability of long fusion in spinal deformity surgery. Besides obtaining immediate stability and proper biomechanical strength of constructs, the S2 alar-iliac (S2AI) screws have some more advantages. Four Korean fresh-frozen human cadavers were procured. Free hand S2AI screw placement is performed using anatomic landmarks. The starting point of the S2AI screw is located at the midpoint between the S1 and S2 foramen and 2 mm medial to the lateral sacral crest. Gearshift was advanced from the desired starting point toward the sacro-iliac joint directing approximately $20^{\circ}$ angulation caudally in sagittal plane and $30^{\circ}$ angulation horizontally in the coronal plane connecting the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS). We made a S2AI screw trajectory through the cancellous channel using the gearshift. We measured caudal angle in the sagittal plane and horizontal angle in the coronal plane. A total of eight S2AI screws were inserted in four cadavers. All screws inserted into the iliac crest were evaluated by C-arm and naked eye examination by two spine surgeons. Among 8 S2AI screws, all screws were accurately placed (100%). The average caudal angle in the sagittal plane was $17.3{\pm}5.4^{\circ}$. The average horizontal angle in the coronal plane connecting the PSIS was $32.0{\pm}1.8^{\circ}$. The placement of S2AI screws using the free hand technique without any radiographic guidance appears to an acceptable method of insertion without more radiation or time consuming.

Next-generation wireless/mobile networks are envisioned to have an IP-based infrastructure. One of the research challenges for next-generation all IP-based networks is the design of intelligent mobility management technologies that have a seamless mobility and minimal signaling overhead. Recently, HMIPv6 was proposed by the IETF for efficient mobility management. HMIPv6 reduces the amount of signaling and improves the performance of MIPv6 in terms of handover latency. However the MAP can be a single point of performance bottleneck when there are a lot of local movements. HMIPv6 can cause signaling overhead due to the unnecessary location update of idle mobile nodes. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the dynamic paging Mobile IPv6 that reduces the signaling cost of the unnecessary location updates using IP paging and organizes dynamically optimal MAP area according to user's mobility and traffic. We show performance results that are obtained from the average total location update cost and packet delivery cost.

In this paper, a lightweight network with fewer parameters compared to the existing object detection method is proposed. In the case of the currently used detection model, the network complexity has been greatly increased to improve accuracy. Therefore, the proposed network uses EfficientNet as a feature extraction network, and the subsequent layers are formed in a pyramid structure to utilize low-level detailed features and high-level semantic features. An attention process was applied between pyramid structures to suppress unnecessary noise for prediction. All computational processes of the network are replaced by depth-wise and point-wise convolutions to minimize the amount of computation. The proposed network was trained and evaluated using the PASCAL VOC dataset. The features fused through the experiment showed robust properties for various objects through a refinement process. Compared with the CNN-based detection model, detection accuracy is improved with a small amount of computation. It is considered necessary to adjust the anchor ratio according to the size of the object as a future study.

CenterNet, a novel object detection algorithm without anchor based on key points, regards the object as a single center point for prediction and directly regresses the object's height and width. However, because the objects have different sizes, directly regressing their height and width will make the model difficult to converge and lose the intrinsic relationship between object's width and height, thereby reducing the stability of the model and the consistency of prediction accuracy. For this problem, we proposed an algorithm based on the regression of the diagonal half-length and the center angle, which significantly compresses the solution space of the regression components and enhances the intrinsic relationship between the decoded components. First, encode the object's width and height into the diagonal half-length and the center angle, where the center angle is the angle between the diagonal and the vertical centreline. Secondly, the predicted diagonal half-length and center angle are decoded into two length components. Finally, the position of the object bounding box can be accurately obtained by combining the corresponding center point coordinates. Experiments show that, when using CenterNet as the improved baseline and resnet50 as the Backbone, the improved model achieved 81.6% and 79.7% mAP on the VOC 2007 and 2012 test sets, respectively. When using Hourglass-104 as the Backbone, the improved model achieved 43.3% mAP on the COCO 2017 test sets. Compared with CenterNet, the improved model has a faster convergence rate and significantly improved the stability and prediction accuracy.

Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) is designed to provide network-based mobility management support to an MN without any involvement of the MN in the mobility related signalling, hence, the proxy mobility entity performs all related signalling on behalf of the MN. The new principal functional entities of PMIPv6 are the local mobility anchor (LMA) and the mobile access gateway (MAG). In PMIPv6, all the data traffic sent from the MN gets routed to the LMA through a tunnel between the LMA and the MAG, but it still has the single point of failure (SPOF) and bottleneck state of traffic. To solve these problems, various approaches directed towards PMIPv6 performance improvements such as route optimization proposed. But these approaches add additional signalling to support MN's mobility, which incurs extra network overhead and still has difficult to apply to multiple-LMA networks. In this paper, we propose a improved route optimization in PMIPv6-based multiple-LMA networks. All LMA connected to the proxy internetworking gateway (PIG), which performs inter-domain distributed mobility control. And, each MAG keeps the information of all LMA in PMIPv6 domain, so it is possible to perform fast route optimization. Therefore, it supports route optimization without any additional signalling because the LMA receives the state information of route optimization from PIG.

The most important point when we engage on waterway dredging work is supplying safe navigational passage to the vessels underway by narrowing dredge work area and removing submerged dangers. In order to meet this end it is neccessary to use auxiliary equipment for shifting actively and mooring and adopt automation of dredging work by integrating information on real time position, dredging depth, and work information. The danger with a spud control system in this study, by the way, is able to employed on continuous dredging work with the narrowest working area allowing wide and safe passages to vessels underway, by moving the dredger to the working zone with the spud controlled automatically. Furthermore, it has been improved definitely compared with the existing dredging proccess management system such that it shows the track of spud and working depth on the electronic navigation chart of window, together with the final outcome of dredging work. The test dredging work at the entrance of Busan North Port for system evaluation showed that actual working time available was twice of the one by the existing anchor system, and that it reduced 38% of time for preparation work and one man power.
