This paper proposes a new infrastructure that supports divisible card payment where a combination of multiple credit cards can be used for a single purchase. The divisible card payment infrastructure modifies the existing payment system in two ways. First, the V-Card Manager(VCM) is added to the merchant side to handle the divisible card approval process from respective credit-card issuers. Second, the V-Card Agent(VA) is added to the customer side and generates a customized divisible card, called V-Card, based on the customer's preferences. This paper provides a customizing card payment method that supports divisible payments based on profits and preferences of customers.

As Internet access through mobile devices is increasing, Mobile IP is the protocol to provide the mobility of a host on the existing IP. It is important to provide secure authentication when mobile node register with home agent through the foreign agent each time it moves. In this paper, we propose the authentication mechanism using a regional registration. The proposed authentication mechanism reduce frequent home registration in regional movement. The simulation results show that the proposed authentication reduces the total registration time and is more efficient than conventional registration mechanism.

In an open network computing environment a host cannot to identity its users correctly to network services. In order to prevent this thing we present the design of a authentication scheme 솟 using the notion of rth -residuosity problem and discrete logarithm problem which is proposed by S. J. Park et al. The proposed scheme described here is efficient method for mutual authentication without leakage of users identity in mobile communication system that ensure user anonymity and untraceability.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to derive solutions and prevent similar cases from occurring by analyzing the causes of cracks found in temperature cycling tests of rocket motor. Methods: By combining the results of the current state confirmation test, non-destructive test, domestic and foreign rocket motor comparison test, cutting test, and adhesion test according to the number of times to apply mold release agent, a Cause and Effect Diagram analysis was performed to derive the cause of cracks. Results: Through this study, 26 factors that could cause cracking in rocket motors during temperature cycling tests were identified. Through various additional test results, a total of five causes were identified, including chemical and structural design of the joint between the propellant and stress relief insert, omission of procedure in the manufacturing procedures, natural aging due to temperature, and load accumulation due to temperature changes. The fundamental cause was confirmed to be insufficient consideration of the release properties of the propellant and stress relief insert. Conclusion: During the design process, it was confirmed that this could be solved by structurally or chemically designing the insert so that it does not combine with the propellant, or by applying a mold release agent during the manufacturing process.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus(PED), a member of Coronaviridea, is the etiological agent of enteropathogenic diarrhea in swine. The purpose of this study was to investigate genetic characteristic of PEDV isolated in Korea. Nucleocapsid(N) gene and membrane (M) gene of recent Korean PEDV strains isolated in 2001 were amplified, cloned, sequenced and analyzed. N gene of seven Korean PEDV field isolates bad 94.5% to 99.4% nucleotide and 92.4% to 99.4% amino acid sequence homology each other. Nucleotide and amino acid sequences of Korean field PEDVs were different from published foreign PEDVs, showing 95.1% to 98.0% nucleotide and 93.5% to 97.6% amino acid sequence homology. By phylogenetic tree analysis on based nucleotide sequences, PEDVs were clustered into four groups. By phylogenetic tree analysis based on amino acid sequences. PEDVs were clustered into five groups. M gene of our Korean PEDV field isolates had 99.6% to 100% nucleotide and 98.7% to 100% amino acid sequence homology each other. Nuclotide and amino acid sequences of Korean field PEDVs were different from published foreign PEDVs, showing 98.5% to 98.8% nucleotide and 97.3% to 97.8% amino acid sequence homology. By phylogenetic tree analysis based on nucleotide and amino acid sequences, PEDVs were clustered into two groups which were Korean PEDV isolate group and foreign PEDV isolate group.

Mycopasma contamination of tissue culture cells easily evades detection and, thus, represents a continous therat to cell biologists. In case where infected cell can not simply be replaced, attempts have to be made to eradicate mycoplacma from the tissue culture cells. A variety of anti-microbial agents have been shown to be toxic to mycoplasma strains ; however, cell associated mycoplasma are often protected from antibiotics at concentrations shown to be effective in vitro. Antibiotic concentrations high enough to be lethal to cell as sociated mycoplasmas frequently are also detrimentrations to the host cells, while moderately increased antibiotic levels tolerated by the host cells often lead to only temporary growth suppression and/or to the emergence of mycoplasma strains resistanct even to high concentrations of the antibiotis applied. Hare, a genetic approach for the elimination of mycoplasma from tissue culture cells that overcomes thens limitations is described. By expression of a selection marker conferring resistance to an otherwise toxic agent, Acholeplasma laidlawii infected BHK-21 cells used as the model system were enabled to temporarily tolerate antibiotic concentrations high enough to be lethal to cell associated mycopalsma while leaving the host cells unharmed. Upon successful mycoplasma eradicated, cultvation of the cured host cells in the absence of the selective agent yielded revertant cell clones that had regained susceptibillity to the toxic agent. Cressation of the selection marker expression was shown to result from the loss of the selection marker DNA, which is a consequence of the fact that the stable and permanent integration of foreign DNA in eucaryotic cell chrosomes is highly inefficient. Thus, the cells were cured from mycoplasma yet remained biochemically unaltered.

As mobile devices have become widely popular, users want to use devices not only wireless but also mobile. Mobile IP is used to support mobility on TCP/IP network. In mobile IP, when a terminal changes location, the terminal requests a registration to Home Agent through Foreign Agent in new location. After the request is accepted by Home Agent, the terminal can use network again. We call this process as handoff. In mobile n, handoff provokes loss of data packets and network delay. In this paper, we describe the implementation of pre-registration which is a solution of the handoff problems. Pre-registration improves the traditional handoff mechanism by requesting registration through current FA before location change. This muchanism can decrease packet loss and network delay.

It is necessary for an instructor to understand the student's team building behavior for an effective guidance of team activities. In this study, we developed an agent-based computational model for simulating the student's self-controlled behavior. We validated the model by comparing the actual behavior. Through the simulation, we found that the time to stabilization of team formation and the ratio of the students having no team are decreasing as the population of the student increases. However, we also found that over a certain amount of population, the time and the ratio do not show much progress in the difference. The simulation also shows that the more heterogeneity between the students the higher chance of delaying the team formation and increasing the ratio. We expect to use the model as a tool for guiding and supporting students' team activities.

By using wireless terminal, User that want to transmit multimedia traffic as well as simple text and voice have a tendency to increase. This paper proposes a fast handoff protocol that is suitable transmission for real-tim of multimedia traffic by using modified local registration. The proposed protocol solves the Triangle Routing Protocol that is one of existing opened issues without modifying protocol of CN, and we propose the method that MN is able to received a packet by real-time, even if MN is being handoff. We compare fast handoff protocol proposed in this paper with existing method n the registration cost and data packet transmission cost. As a result, we showed that fast handoff protocol proposed in this paper outperforms existing method.

This paper explores a way to solve students' silence problem in the class by studying dynamic behaviors in the class. In order to build a behavioral model, several factors affecting the students' behavior were extracted by literature review and by performing a survey to the students. The paper also implemented the model into an agent-based computer model for simulation. The simulation result showed that the behavior of an individual depends on the neighboring students. The more students are expressing their opinion, and then the better motivation one can get to express an opinion. Other observations are that supportive atmosphere considerably reduces the silent ratio, and even the majority of silence phenomenon appears at critical atmosphere.
