In this paper, we present a new method for handling similarity measure between interval-valued fuzzy numbers, which is based on the similarity measure of generalized fuzzy numbers that was proposed by Jiang, W.. This method combines the concepts of the center of gravity, the area, the perimeter and the height of generalized fuzzy numbers to gain the similarity measure between generalized fuzzy numbers. The Jiang’s way can overcome the drawbacks of the other approaches to gain similarity measure of generalized fuzzy numbers such as can-not-find similarity measure, incorrect similarity measure, different similarity measure rather intuition, same similarity measure among different fuzzy numbers. We also provide the proof of some properties for the similarity measure between interval-valued fuzzy numbers.

The password and nonce based method of certification has been studied for a long time in the field of remote user authentication and the study for guaranteeing user's anonymity has recently been under way. In 2004 Das et al.’s carried out the study for guaranteeing anonymity using dynamic ID and in 2005 Chien et al.’s proposed an improved protocol. In 2008 Bindu et al.’s suggested a new protocol pointing out that the protocol proposed by Chien et al.’s was vulnerable to the attack from insider and man-in-the-middle attack. This paper points out the vulnerability of the protocol proposed by Chien and Bindu et al.’s and suggests an improved protocol producing nonce for guaranteeing the security of secret key and keeping the secret key indecipherable by using the padding. It also increase efficiency of calculation by removing exponentation operation and increase efficiency of protocol by making it possible to change user's password randomly.

In this paper, we propose a Distributed Floor Control Protocol for the OMA(Open Mobile Alliance) PTT(Push-to-talk) mobile service. This protocol is designed for the clients in the radio shadow area by obtaining a control to be able to join the communication via PoC Router, a PoC client to relay the messages from PoC clients in radio shadow area. This protocol is based on the tree based floor control but it solves the problem of the shadow area using the dynamic tree structure for the PoC clients in radio shadow area.

In this paper, we propose a layered overlay multicast using local multicast for reduce delay time of transmission tree that is reconstructed by join or drop on overlay multicast group. In proposed method, after all receivers join the local multicast group and exchange their information of local network with one another. All receivers decide the overlay sender in each local though exchanged information. The layered multicast group is constructed for reconstruct dynamic tree. The overlay sender transmits the packet to the overlay sender in the other layered multicast group through overlay multicast. In simulation results, while the proposed method construct dynamic tree, the proposed method uses the overlay sender to reduce delay time and quickly construct dynamic tree than known overlay multicast.

Artificial Insemination(AI) technique in the hog industry became a basis of the industrial development by having been distributed to domestic hog farmers in earnest after 1994. Currently AI supply system consists of 3 steps such as suppliers who produce and manage boars, centers that produce AI from boars and its distribution, and producers who bring up hogs after obtaining excellent AI in our country. AI PigMoS system proposed by the study can manage nationwide AI centers comprehensively based on the web, and also designed and developed Bar-Code generating functionality so that the record tracing on boars, semen production and sales management etc can be possible. Therefore it is expected that effective hog improvement system would be set up because this could manage AI centers comprehensively and will be able to be utilized to integrated analysis of AI centers and record tracing of various uses as well.

Today, research has been actively using the Kinect sensor. Kinect sensor provides color images and depth information that can take advantage of a variety of sectors. Kinect sensor is an essential contributor to game development. It becomes the link between humans and their computers. In this paper explains the system that controls UAV drone robots. Using Microsoft’s Kinect sensor, the drone can be controlled by a recognized human voice. This paper presents the 12 words that can control the UAV. It analyzes the result according to the recognition rate of each word. 12 words are pronounced 20 times a piece and each word's recognition result is analyzed with the reliability rate of 89%. In this specific experiment, the user’s first language, Korean, was non-applicable as Kinect does not yet recognize the language. Instead, English was used for all voice recognition commands. With a Korean recognition system, a more reliable recognition rate is expected.
