About the Lab
Professor Sung Jin Shin's research spans literary studies and advanced technology, with a focus on the intersection of narrative, ethics, and social reform in 19th-century British literature, as well as cutting-edge developments in secure communications and network optimization. His work explores how literary texts by authors such as Elizabeth Barrett Browning, William Godwin, and Maria Edgeworth reflect and challenge social structures, while also investigating quantum cryptography and intelligent network handover mechanisms to enhance communication security and performance. The lab integrates humanistic inquiry with technical innovation, emphasizing ethical foundations in social change and the practical application of theoretical frameworks in modern technology.

Many readers have regarded William Godwin’s St. Leon: The Tale of the Sixteenth Century (1799) as an expression of his newfound appreciation for domestic affection. Yet such readings tend to overlook the novel’s emphasis on communication grounded in mutual understanding which operates as the foundation for gradual social reform. This essay argues that Godwin, influenced by Adam Smith’s moral theory, foregrounds sociality in both private and public relations to illustrate his vision of social ref
기존의 암호 시스템은 도청 및 감청을 방지할 수단이 없으며 컴퓨터의 성능이 향상되어 대규모 연산의 동시 수행 시, 단시간에 암호 해독이 가능한 단점이 있어, 이에 대응하는 새로운 보안 기술로써 양자 암호 통신이 대두되고 있다. 양자 암호 통신은 양자 키 분배와 양자 통신으로 이루어지는 차세대 보안 통신 기술로, 기존의 공개 암호키 방식과 비교했을 때 무조건 안전성(unconditional security)을 실현할 수 있어 주목 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 양자 암호 통신과 양자 키 분배 기술의 개요와 최신 개발 현황을 소개한다. 또한, BB84와 decoy 기술을 무선으로 사용할 때, 도청자의 개입을 확인할 수 있는 수학적인 분석을 수행하였다.
본 논문에서는 이종의 네트워크 환경, 특히 Long Term Evolution(LTE)와 Wireless Fidelity(Wi-Fi) 사이의 수직 핸드오버에서 망의 Congestion 상황을 파악하고 Congestion 정도에 따라 Wi-Fi의 사용을 단계적으로 사용하는 새로운 수직 핸드오버 방식을 제안한다. 새로운 방식의 동기는 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator)가 높아도트래픽이 증가하여 congestion이 발생하면 네트워크 성능이 떨어지는 것에 기인한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점들의 해결을 위하여 Guaranteeing Performance Vertical Handover(GP-VHO)를 제안한다. GP-VHO는 StreamControl Transmission Protocol(SCTP)의 멀티 홈밍 기능을 이용하면서 핸드오버의 기준으로 instant throughput을 사용하여 일정한 성능을 유지 할 수 있도록 한다. 또한 수직 핸드오
Maria Edgeworth’s Castle Rackrent (1800) is often regarded as the first Irish historical novel. However, at first glance, its narrative defies generic expectations, frustrating the reader’s desire to grasp an “authentic” Ireland. In this essay, I argue that Edgeworth employs Thady’s eccentric narration and the degenerative history of the Rackrent family to question the possibility of historical progress in colonial Ireland. Specifically, this essay examines the stunted temporality Edgeworth cons
Ann Yearsley, often referred to as the Bristol milkwoman, occupies a distinct place in the British poetic tradition. Above all, she, unlike many other laboring-class poets of her time, openly and frequently addresses political and societal issues in her works, reflecting her status as a respectable intellectual poet. In this essay, I explore Yearsley’s pursuit of intellectual independence and the strategies she adopted early in her career to navigate the constraints imposed upon her as a laborin
William Wordsworth’s “Lucy” poems have enjoyed enduring popularity for a long time. And yet critics have struggled to reach a consensus on how to read this series of poems. In this essay, I propose to read these enigmatic poems through the lens of the Wordsworthian sublime and explore the possibility of reading them as Wordsworth’s poetic experiment in line with his larger poetic experiments in Lyrical Ballads (1798, 1800, 1802). To achieve this goal, I first consider various conceptualizations
Adam Smith’s The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) was a success from the time of its publication. The influence of his elaborate and unique moral theory upon contemporary thinkers cannot be overlooked and many writers have reacted to Smith’s theory in their own writing—some praising and building their literary world based on his ideas and others criticizing it by pointing out the deficiencies of his system. In this essay, I explicate the unique aspect of Smith’s theory of sympathy, namely its i
What does the essay accomplish in a GenAI-saturated world? We consider this problem through our experience of teaching college students as instructors of English literature. Rather than abandoning the form or defending it on nostalgic grounds, this article argues against the “death of the essay,” contending that the emergence of GenAI clarifies what is distinctive about human writing: a process by which a writer discovers and experiments with one’s thinking, and through which one is transformed.
