Abstract: An end-to-end security communication method includes, when receiving a security key generation request packet from a first host, generating, by a communication controller, a security key for end-to-end security communication between the first host and a second host, transmitting the generated security key to each of the first host and the second host, and setting a forwarding rule for transmission of a packet destined for a Media Access Control (MAC) address of the first host or a MAC address of the second host to a first switch and a second switch connected respectively to the first host and the second host. According to the end-to-end security communication method, the communication controller performs the process of generating a security key that will be shared between hosts using Software Defined-Networking (SDN), so that MAC security communication technology can be applied to communication between hosts belonging to different networks.

Abstract: Multi-modal sensing relating to joint acoustic emission and joint bioimpedance. Custom-design analog electronics and electrodes provide high resolution sensing of bioimpedance, microphones and their front-end electronics for capturing sound signals from the joints, rate sensors for identifying joint motions (linear and rotational), and a processor unit for interpretation of the signals. These components are packed into a wearable form factor, which also encapsulates the hardware required to minimize the negative effects of motion artifacts on the signals.
