As the performance of the next-generation broadband wireless networks is dramatically enhanced, various services (i.e., education, video conferencing, online games, etc.) have been provided to users through a smart mobile platform. Since those services are usually provided by using the centralized architecture, it is difficult for a lot of users to provide the scalable communication service with regard to traffic management. To solve these problems, we have proposed an architecture of P2P-based group communication management scheme using smart mobile device. More specifically, we design the group management protocol and algorithm for the group member management and the traffic management. By using these methods, the mobile multimedia streaming service can be provided with scalability. In order to verify the performance of the proposed scheme, we have mathematically analyzed the performance in terms of the average transmission delay and bandwidth utilization.

본 논문은 무선 센서 네트워크를 이용한 현장 견학의 그룹 관리 시스템을 제안한다. 각 그룹을 담당하는 선생님은 휴대형 장치를 이용하여 아이들을 관리하고, 확인할 수 있고, 아이가 그룹을 벗어났을 때 감지할 수 있다. 아이들은 센서 노드를 사용하여 5초마다 패킷을 전송하고, 선생님 주변 30m 이내에 위치하도록 한다. 선생님은 아이들을 관리하고, 없어진 아이들을 확인할 수 있다. 제안한 시스템은 현장 견학뿐만 아니라 수학여행이나 소풍에 사용될 수 있다. 또한 제안한 시스템의 센서 노드는 배터리로 동작되기 때문에 전류 소모량을 측정하여 수명을 예측할 수 있다.

Diffie-Hellman(DH) 키공유 기법［1］이 제안된 후 많은 종류의 키공유 기법들이 연구되었으며, 특히 특정한 그룹 내의 구성원들이 안전한 통신을 할 수 있게 하기 위한 그룹 기반의 키공유 기법들에 대한 많은 방식들이 제안되었다. 이러한 방식들은 PKI 기반 구조 등을 사용하는 여러 응용들에서 쉽게 사용될 수 있지만, Ad-hoc 통신망이라는 특정한 기반구조를 사용할 수 없는 환경에서는 적용하기가 쉽지 않다. ［2］에서는 Ad-hoc 환경에서의 그룹(conference) 기반의 키공유 기법을 제안하였지만, (n＋2)-라운드의 통신량이 요구되며, 그룹 구성원들의 위치정보를 알고 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 ad-hoc 환경에서의 효율적이며, 그룹 구성원들의 위치정보를 알 필요 없는 2-라운드 키공유 기법을 제안한다.

The explosive interest in block chain, which was triggered by Bitcoin in 2009, is leading to substantial investment and the development of block chain technology. There is no dispute among experts that block chain will be the next generation of innovation. However, despite the high expectations for block chains, the related technology still has certain limitations. In addition to improving issues such as a low transaction throughput, inefficient agreement algorithms, and an inflexible governance structure, it is necessary to solve various problems for commercialization and full-scale spreading owing to the trilemma problem among the scalability, security, and decentralization. Under this situation, identification of the technology characteristics according to the generation is helpful for the development of the core technology requirements and commercialization blueprint in establishing an R&D direction. Therefore, in this article, the development of blockchain technology is divided into generations and analyzed in terms of the operational structure, consensus algorithm, governance, scalability, and security.

In the age of IoT, in which everything is connected to a network, there have been increases in the amount of data traffic, latency, and the risk of personal privacy breaches that conventional cloud computing technology cannot cope with. The idea of edge computing has emerged as a solution to these issues, and furthermore, the concept of ultra-low power edge intelligent semiconductors in which the IoT device itself performs intelligent decisions and processes data has been established. The key elements of this function are an intelligent semiconductor based on artificial intelligence, connectivity for the efficient connection of neurons and synapses, and a large-scale spiking neural network simulation framework for the performance prediction of a neural network. This paper covers the current trends in ultra-low power edge intelligent semiconductors including issues regarding their technology and application.

Although virtual reality technology may not be deemed as having a satisfactory quality for all users, it tends to incite interest because of the expectation that the technology can allow one to experience something that they may never experience in real life. The most important aspect of this indirect experience is the provision of immersive 3D audio and video, which interacts naturally with every action of the user. The immersive audio faithfully reproduces an acoustic scene in a space corresponding to the position and movement of the listener, and this technology is also called spatial audio. In this paper, we briefly introduce the trend of spatial audio technology in view of acquisition, analysis, reproduction, and the concept of MPEG-I audio standard technology, which is being promoted for spatial audio services.

Broadcast is evolving into media service aimed at user customization, personalization, and participation with high-quality broadcasting contents (4K/8K/AR/VR). A broadcast infrastructure is needed to engage with the competition for providing large-scaled media traffic process, platform performance for adaptive transcoding to diverse receivers, and intelligent service. Cloud service and virtualization in broadcast are becoming more valuable as the broadcasting environment changes and new high-level broadcasting services emerge. This document describes the examples of cloud and virtualization in the broadcast industry, and prospects the network virtualization of broadcast transmission infrastructure, especially terrestrial and cable networks.

Currently, the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is spreading from recreational purposes to the public- and commercial-use product areas. Various efforts are being made worldwide to ensure the safety of UAVs and expand their service applications and convenience, because autonomous flights are becoming increasingly popular. In order for a UAV to perform autonomous flight and mission without operator assistance, environmental perception technology, path planning technology, and flight control technology are needed. In this article, we present recent trends in these technologies.

In this paper, we consider the management scheme of the crowd group in the sensor networks. In the case of the networks searching the critical area, the operation of crowd group can affect the mission implement. The mobile sink system leading the group networks can change the network configuration as the dangerous data gathered from group sensor nodes. The dynamic network management provides the important role to the mission of mobile sink to react the dangerous environments.

In order to support mobility for sink groups, it is important to get the current location of a mobile sink group and then to offer the location to a source. Typically, previous works calculate a region including all member sinks by flooding; then, it notifies this region information to a source. However, flooding and location updates are periodically performed regardless of the group movement so that it causes considerable control overhead. In this paper, we propose an energy-efficient scheme supporting mobile sink groups. The proposed scheme obtains a location of a group without flooding. It exploits the inherent property of mobile sink groups which could approximate entire group movement by only partial member sinks movement. Also, the scheme learns group location by back-propagation learning method through exploiting overhearing feature in wireless communication environment. Our simulation studies show that the proposed scheme significantly improves in terms of energy consumption compared to the previous work.
