Bitcoin-based blockchain technology provides an infrastructure that enables anonymous smart contracts, low-cost remittances, and online payments. However, the block-chain technology that implements the bitcoin has scalability constraints in tradeoffs between throughput and latency. To solve these problems, the Byzantine fault tolerant block-chain technique has been proposed. This technique improves throughput without increasing latency by selecting a leader and constructing many microblocks that do not contain proofs of work within the existing block by the leader. However, this technique may be less secure than existing techniques in selecting the reader.

As a single video server exposes its limitation in scalability, capability, fault-tolerance, and cost-efficiency, solutions of this limitation emerge. However, these solutions have their own problems that will be discussed in this paper. To solve these problems and exploit various video silvers, we designed a parallel multimedia system architecture that supported a content-aware routing to heterogeneous personal computer (PC), operating system (OS), video servers through a HTTP-level redirection. We also developed a prototype, added different video servers into the prototype, and measured its overheads.

최근 TV 서비스의 가입자 및 TV 프로그램 콘텐츠의 급격한 증가에 따라 빅데이터 처리에 적합한 추천 시스템의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 본 논문은 사용자들의 간접 평가 데이터 기반의 추천 시스템 디자인 시, 누적된 사용자의 과거 이용내역 데이터를 저장하지 않고 새로 생성된 사용자 이용내역 데이터를 학습하는 효율적인 알고리즘이면서, 시간 흐름에 따라 사용자들의 선호도 변화 및 TV 프로그램 스케줄 변화의 추적이 가능한 토픽 모델링 기반의 알고리즘을 제안한다. 빅데이터 처리를 위해서는 분산처리 형태의 알고리즘을 피할 수 없는데, 기존의 연구들 중 토픽 모델링 기반의 추론 알고리즘의 병렬분산처리 과정 중에 핵심이 되는 부분은 많은 데이터를 여러 대의 기계에 나누어 병렬분산 학습하면서 전역변수 데이터를 동기화하는 부분이다. 그런데, 이러한 전역데이터 동기화 기술에 있어, 여러 대의 컴퓨터를 병렬분산처리하기위한 하둡 기반의 시스템 및 서버-클라이언트간의 중재, 고장 감내 시스템 등을 모두 고려한 알고리즘들이 제안되어 왔으나, 네트워크 대역폭 한계로 인해 데이터 증가에 따른 동기화 시간 지연은 피할 수 없는 부분이다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 빅데이터 처리를 위해 사용자들을 클러스터링하고, 클러스터별 제안 알고리즘으로 전역데이터 동기화를 수행한 것과 지역 데이터를 활용하여 추론 연산한 결과, 클러스터별 지역별 TV프로그램 시청 토큰 별 은닉토픽 할당 테이블을 유지할 때 추천 성능이 더욱 향상되어 나오는 결과를 확인하여, 제안된 구조의 추천 시스템 디자인의 효율성과 합리성을 확인할 수 있었다.

The kernel hardening function is necessary in terms of kernel stability to reduce the system error or panic due to the kernel code error that is made by program developer. But, the traditional kernel hardening method is difficult to implement and consuming high cost. The suggested kernel hardening function that makes high availability system by changing the panic() function of inside kernel code guarantees normal system operation by recovering the incorrect address of the kernel stack frame. We experimented the kernel hardening function at the network module of the Linux by forcing panic code and confirmed the proposed design mechanism of kernel hardening is working well by this experiment.

The Election paradigm can be used as a building block in many practical problems such as group communication, atomic commit and replicated data management where a protocol coordinator might be useful. The problem has been widely studied in the research community since one reason for this wide interest is that many distributed protocols need an election protocol. However, despite its usefulness, to our knowledge there is no work that has been devoted to this problem in a mobile ad hoc computing environment. Mobile ad hoc systems are more prone to failures than conventional distributed systems. Solving election in such an environment requires from a set of mobile nodes to choose a unique node as a leader based on its priority despite failures or disconnections of mobile nodes. In this paper, we describe a solution to the election problem from mobile ad hoc computing systems. This solution is based on the Group Membership Detection algorithm.

As the e-learning spreads widely and demands on the internet video service, transmitting video data for many users over the Internet becomes popular. To satisfy this needs, the traditional approach uses a tree structure that uses the video server as the root node. However, this approach has the danger of stopping the video service even when one of the nodes along the path has a some problem. In this paper, we propose a video-on-demand service that uses multiple paths. We add new paths for backup and speed up for transmitting the video data. We show by simulation experiments that our approach provides a high-quality of video service.

A most important thing in a connected dominating set(CDS)-based routing in a wireless ad-hoc network is to select a minimum number of dominating nodes and then build a backbone network which is made of them. Node failure in a CDS is an event of non-negligible probability. For applications where fault tolerance is critical, a traditional dominating-set based routing may not be a desirable form of clustering. It is necessary to minimize the frequency of reconstruction of a CDS to reduce message overhead due to message flooding. The idea is that by finding alternative nodes within a restricted range and locally reconstructing a CDS to include them, instead of totally reconstructing a new CDS. With the proposed algorithm, the resulting number of dominating nodes after partial reconstruction of CDS is not changed and also its execution time is faster than well-known algorithm of construction of CDS by 20~40%. In the case of high mobility situation, the proposed algorithm gives better results for the performance metrics, packet receive ratio and energy consumption.

Group communication is one of key components supporting object replication. CORBA provides little support for fault tolerance and high availability that can be supported by means of object replication. The existing approaches do not allow transparent plug-in of group communication protocols into CORBA with which CORBA application programmers are able to directly exploit group communication protocols. They either require modification of CORBA or OS, or provide no room for incorporating group communication transport protocols into CORBA. In this paper, we propose a generic group communication framework that allows transparent plug-in of various group communication protocols with no modification of standard CORBA. For this, we extend the Open Communications Interface(OCI) to support interoperability, reusability of existing group communication, and independency on ORB and OS. The proposed approach can also be applied to various group communication protocols.

In this paper, we propose a technique for scalability of the blockchain technology by using microblock technology and parallel execution technique. Within one microblock there is information about several transactions. In the proposed scheme, the throughput of the microblocks can be increased by performing concurrently.

In this paper, we propose two hot standby architectures which not only provide high system availability but also lose little data on fault occurrence. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed hot standby architectures, the warm standby architecture. In order to evaluate the performance of the propose d hot standby architectures, the warm standby architecture which is made from the hot standby architecture by eliminating its synchronization unit is considered. After system unavailability for each architecture is computed by using the corresponding Markov state diagram, the results are compared and evaluated. As the results, in most cases, hot standby architectures have higher availability than warm standby architecture. Also, hot standby architecture with external synchronization unit always maintains a little higher availability than hot standby architecture with internal synchronization unit. Active set time and personnel recovery rate for each architecture have little effect on system availability. However, in the case that data recovery time is too long, system availabilities of hot standby architectures and warm standby architecture degrade rapidly. In this case, the performance degradation of hot standby architectures is severe, and system availabilities of hot standby architectures eventually become lower than system availability of warm standby architecture.
