Abstract:
A shared key management method for a Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system in which a master terminal unit (MTU), a plurality of sub master terminal units (SUB-MTUs), and a plurality of remote terminal units (RTUs) are configured in a sequential hierarchy, is provided. The method includes: (a) at the MTU, generating a plurality of secret keys and respectively allocating the secret keys to the RTUs; (b) at the MTU, generating a group key in a tree structure, wherein a leaf node of the tree structure corresponds to each RTU, a parent node of a node corresponding to an RTU corresponds to a SUB-RTU to which the RTU is connected, a shared key of each node of the group key is generated by hashing shared keys of all child nodes, and a shared key of a leaf node of the group key is set as a secret key of the RTU; (c) at the RTU or the SUM-MTU, receiving and storing shared keys of every node from a node corresponding to itself to a root node; (d) when the RTU or the SUM-MTU is added or deleted, at the MTU, generating shared keys of nodes along a path from a node corresponding to the added or deleted terminal unit to the root node again; and (e) at the RTU or the SUB-MTU, receiving and storing the generated shared keys. According to the key management method for the SCADA system described above, in the case of encrypting and broadcasting or multicasting a message, a computation amount can be reduced.
Abstract:
A method of providing multimedia and information services taking into account user context information, and an apparatus providing these multimedia and information services are provided. The method involves calculating the direction wherein the user is facing using the user context information; comparing the direction wherein the user is determined to be facing with the environment information source of the area wherein the user is located; determining whether the attention of the user is focused on a service device in the location of the user; and providing a service using the device that the attention of the user is focused on if it is determined that the attention of the user is focused on a service device.
Abstract:
An inspecting apparatus for semiconductor devices including: a match plate; a contact module combined with the match plate, and the match plate including a radiation unit radiating heat from the semiconductor devices to the outside, and a test unit contacting leads of the semiconductor; an insert module installed on a bottom of the contact module, and having a semiconductor device accommodator to accommodate the semiconductor device; and an auxiliary radiation member installed on a bottom of the insert module, and radiating the heat from the semiconductor device to the outside. Accordingly, the inspecting apparatus for semiconductor device according to the present invention performs testing at a constant temperature regardless of heat from the semiconductors by radiating the heat from the semiconductors immediately and efficiently, thereby producing more accurate test results. Accurate testing improves productivity and saves expense by removing faulty test results caused by identifying a qualified semiconductor as a defective semiconductor due to heat radiated from the semiconductor device.
Abstract:
A key switch of a keyboard of the present invention includes a key cap and an elastic body which supports and allows the key cap to elastically move up and down. The elastic body is a band shaped structure and includes end portions which are pivotally supported above a substrate, a central portion bulged to contact a bottom surface of the key cap, and curved portions having a curvature opposite to that of the central portion disposed between corresponding ones of the end portions and the central portion. The curved portions of the elastic body are deformed at a position lower than an upper surface of the substrate. Therefore, the overall height of the key switch can be reduced, allowing for the manufacture of a slimmer keyboard unit.
Abstract:
A radiation apparatus of a hard disk drive includes a base frame, a spindle motor installed at the base frame, a hard disk rotatably supported by a rotation shaft of the spindle motor, a cover frame coupled to the base frame and having a hole formed therein, a radiation plate installed at the cover frame and formed of a copper alloy having a thermal conductivity higher than that of the cover frame, and a portion for coupling the rotation shaft and the radiation plate so that driving heat generated by the spindle motor can be directly transferred to the radiation plate.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing an LCD comprising, preparing a liquid crystal panel which comprises a substrate assembly and a polarizing plate, wherein the polarizing plate is attached to the substrate assembly, disposing a gas injecting part towards the plate surface of the liquid crystal panel, while the gas injecting part is exposed to atmospheric conditions, and applying a pressure to the plate surface of the liquid crystal panel by injecting gas through the gas injecting part. With this configuration, the present invention provides a method to remove bubbles between the polarizing plate and liquid crystal panel without the use of a chamber.
Abstract:
A method of controlling a plurality of home devices using a single controller in a home network system, including a home server detecting home devices on a home network where the home server is provided to manage the home devices; the home server receiving control pulse codes of the home devices from a service provider of the home devices; the home server creating a key mapping table from the control pulse code; and the home server transmitting the key mapping table to one controller.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a home network system and a contents transmission method for a home network system, wherein the home network system includes: a Video On Demand (VOD) server for providing a VOD contents service and converting the contents to be suited for at least one device at home; a home server being connected to the VOD server and tracking the user's location for managing a context which is situation information on the user's location and the user's location movement associated with the device close to the user among the at least one device; and an internal communication device identifying the device for networking the home server and the at least one device. In accordance with the present invention, since contents are transmitted after being converted so as to be suitable to a device, it is possible to increase job efficiency in a home network system.
