House made differential mobility analyzer(DMA) is calibrated with NIST SRM 1691(300 nm PSL). Then the particle size and uncertainty for differential mobility analyzer(DMA) using the NIST SRM 1963(100 nm PSL). In result, calibration of prototype DMA is measured using 300 nm NIST SRM 1691, then sheath air flow was corrected 126.67 ㎤/s. Corrected sheath air flow is used in uncertainty measurement of prototype DMA. Uncertainty analysis is performed using NIST SRM 1963(100 nm PSL). The experimental result shows that NIST SRM 1963 is measured as 102.17 nm with a type A uncertainty of 0.33 nm.

In this paper, we investigate criteria for evaluating cryptographic strength based on randomness testing of the advanced encryption standard candidates, which have conducted by NIST(National Institute of Standards & Technology). It is difficult to prove that a given cryptographic algorithm meets sufficient conditions or requirements for provable security. The statistical testing of random number generators is one of methods to evaluate cryptographic strength and is based on statistical properties of random number generators. We apply randomness testing on several cryptographic algorithms that have not been tested by NIST and find criteria for evaluating cryptographic strength from the results of randomness testing. We investigate two criteria, one is the number of rejected samples and the other is the p-value from p-values of the samples.

Many chaos-based encryption methods have been presented and discussed in the last two decades, but very few of them are suitable to secure transmission on noisy channels or respect the standard of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This paper tackles the problem and presents a novel chaos-based cryptosystem for secure transmitted images. The proposed cryptosystem overcomes the drawbacks of existing chaotic algorithms such as the Socek, Xiang, Yang, and Wong methods. It takes advantage of the increasingly complex behavior of perturbed chaotic signals. The perturbing orbit technique improves the dynamic statistical properties of generated chaotic sequences, permits the proposed algorithm reaching higher performance, and avoids the problem of error propagation. Finally, many standard tools, such as NIST tests, are used to quantify the security level of the proposed cryptosystem, and experimental results prove that the suggested cryptosystem has a high security level, lower correlation coefficients, and improved entropy.

In this paper, we analyze the security and performance of the Quantis Quantum random number generator in terms of cryptography through experiments. The Quantis' post-processing is designed to output full-entropy via bit-matrix-vector multiplication based on mathematical background, and we used the min-entropy estimating test of NIST SP 800-90B so as to verify whether the output is full-entropy. Quantis minimizes the effect on the random bit rate by using an optimization technique for bit-matrix-vector multiplication, and compared the performance to conditioning functions of NIST SP 800-90B by measuring the random bit rate. Also, we have distinguished what is in Quantis' post-processing to the standard model of NIST in USA and BSI in Germany, and in case of applying Quantis to cryptographic systems in accordance with the CMVP standard, it is recommended to use the output of Quantis as the seed of the approved DRBG.

네트워크 기술의 발전으로 사회 여러 분야에서 인터넷을 이용하여 다양한 서비스들이 제공되고 있다. 이러한 서비스가 널리 확산됨에 따라 인터넷 상에서 전송되는 정보의 기밀성과 무결성을 보장하기 위한 암호 기술이 크게 주목을 받고 있다. 현재 널리 사용되고 있는 암호 알고리즘으로는 FIPS 197(Federal Information Processing Standard)에서 정의한 AES(Advanced Encryption Standard)와 FIPS 46-3에 채택된 Triple DES(Data Encryption Standard), FIPS 198에 정의된 HMAC 등이 있다. 이러한 알고리즘들은 시스템 사이의 상호 운용을 위해 제정되었으며, 공유 키 재료(Shared keying material) 설정이 사전에 이뤄져야 한다. 키 재료의 설정은 신뢰기관에 의해 분배가 가능하나, 객체의 수가 증가함에 따라 키 재료 분배 작업이 지수적으로 증가하게 되는 문제점이 있다. 그러므로, 본고에서는 이러한 키 재료 분배의 문제점과 효율적인 키 설정 스킴에 대하여 기술하고 있는 NIST 800-56을 분석하고자 한다.

A standard procedure for determining water-steam properties has been established through an international collaboration in addition to a domestic effort. The current accepted international standard for industrial application is based on the IAPWS-IF97 (International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam-Industrial Formation 97). Based on this standard, the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers)/NIST (National Institute of Standard and Technology) developed the REPROP program in the USA, and the JSME (Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers) developed the steam table and calculation code. Upon applying this standard procedure, modified procedures were proposed for computational convenience, particularly in the supercritical pressure region where non-smooth variations of water-steam properties were distinctively observed. In this paper, the internationally adopted procedures and the progress of related activities are briefly summarized. Some practical considerations are presented for the efficient execution of computational code.

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard test method PS 070-97 has been created for measuring fracture toughness of advanced ceramics. PS 070-97 includes three test methods which use beams in bending: chevron notch (CNB), single-edged precracked beam (SEPB), and surface crack in flexure (SCF). Supporting data has been collected through several Versailles Advanced Materials and Standards round robins. This paper discusses the evolution of the standard including the rationale for the choice of the three methods and the specifications in the standard. Progress on Standard Reference material 2100 which will have certified values of fracture toughness is presented.

Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry(ICP/AES) was used for the determination of uranium and thorium in geological materials. Samples were predecomposed by mixed acid digestion technique. The separation of the uranium and thorium was achieved by systematic solvent extraction with TTA(thenoyltrifluoroacetone) and TOA (tri-n-octylamine) and back extraction into HCl. The results for standard rock sample, NIST SRM 278, showed a good agreement with those certified from NIST as well as found values by other non-destructive techniques. Additional purification for extracted portions was carried out by anion exchange chromatography for measurement of several natural radioisotopes of uranium and thorium by alpha spectrometry.

The control of the rheological properties of a fluid during processing is important and can determine the efficiency of the production in addition to the performance of the final product. The vast majority of process fluids are viscoelastic, hence an instrument that measures both the viscous and elastic properties of the material during processing would be of great practical use. However, most in-line instruments commercially available to date are only capable of measuring viscosity at a single shear rate. An in-line rheometer that measures both the viscous and elastic properties of fluids over a wide range of shear rates simultaneously has been described in a previous publication (Glasscock et at., 2003) in which the results of measurements on flowing sunflower oil were presented. Before this instrument can be used in an industrial situation, it must be demonstrated that the generated results are the same as, or bear some fixed relationship to, the results obtained by conventional off-line rheometers. To this end, the present investigation describes the measurements of a standard reference fluid, polyisobutylene dissolved in 2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecane, labelled SRM2490 by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the USA. The results obtained using the in-line rheometer show remarkably good correlation for viscosity, using a modified Cox­Merz rule, with the results supplied with the reference material from NIST.
