The sensor nodes of sensor network system are capable of wireless communication with sink nodes. They also acquire and transmit sensor data in broad region where people cannot access easily. However, the transmission of redundant data from sensor nodes reduces the lifetime of the entire system and substantial amount of resulted data needs to be resorted before implementing them to the specific applications. In this paper, the mobile agent middleware to eliminate the redundant sensor data is designed and implemented. In the proposed system, the mobile agent visits the destination sensor nodes according to the migration list offered by the meta table in the name space of the naming agent, eliminates the redundant sensor data corresponding to user condition, and acquires and transmits sensor data according to the purpose and needs. Thus, the excess transmission of the sensor data is avoided and the lifetime of the entire system can be extended. Moreover, the experiments using the mobile agent middleware with the conditions and limitations that are possible in real situation ore done to verify the successful elimination of the redundant sensor data and the efficiency of the data acquisition. Also, we show the potential applicability of the mobile agent middleware in various active sensor networks through the active rule based mobile agent middleware or the interaction with the active rule system.

In this paper, we propose the active rule system applying with emotional margin for power saving control. The proposed system in this paper is a part of the system which derives smart power saving by adjusting the illuminance using active rules within compromising the user's emotion. For this, we set the specific range of standard illuminance and the lower bound of user's emotional margin of illuminance based on measurements and analysis, and use these data in design of active rules. And then, we design and implement the active rule system using mobile agent. The mobile agent in the proposed system migrates to the destination sensor nodes, acquires and transmits sensor data according to the purpose and needs through the active rules, and directly executes the actions corresponding to the optional events(changed sensor data and/or time etc.). And then, we show the potential applicability of the proposed active rule system in various active sensor network applications through the interaction with the rule base and mobile sensor network middleware system.

The sink mobility can request frequent routing change in sensor networks. By active mobility a sink can gather needed information easily so that the network availability will be higher. However, instead static sink system, the connection between sensor nodes and a mobile sink can be changed continuously. That is, the rerouting should be implemented caused by the routing alteration. It is two connection setups for the mobile sink system: the connection from sink to sensor nodes and the connection from sensor nodes to sink. However, sensor nodes actually have many functional limitations. Hence, the low cost scheme will be needed for the connection setup from sensor nodes to the mobile sink. In this paper, we propose an agent scheme to the connection setup from sensor nodes to the mobile sink. The agent scheme provides the reliable setup scheme to the connection by using an agent sector.

In this paper, we design the CORBA-based Mobile Agent Model (CMAM) which has the capability of the efficient work processing in distributed environment through sensing network traffic and searching the optimal path for migration nodes of mobile agent. In case existing mobile agent model is given various works from user, the network overhead and traffic are increased by increasing of execution module size. Also, if it happens a large quantity of traffics due to migration of nodes according to appointment of the passive host(below node) routing schedule by user, it needs much cost for node search time by traffic. Therefore, in this paper, we design a new mobile agent m()del that assures the reliability of agent's migration through dynamic act on the specific situation according to appointment of the active routing schedule and can minimize agent's work processing time through optimal path search. The proposed model assigns routing schedule of the migration nodes actively using an extended MAFFinder. Also, for decreasing overhead of network by agent's size, it separates the existing mobile agent object by mobile agent including only agent calling module and push agent with work executing module based on distributed object type of CORBA. Also, it reduces the required time for round works of mobile agent through the optimal path search of migration nodes.

This study addressed security requirements for ad-hoc network environments, which lies at the hour of the ubiquitous computing revolution and proposed a partially-distributed certificate management system that can ensure security in mobile ad-hoc networks. The proposed model is characterized by ie ability to handle dynamic mobility of nodes, minimize routing load and enhance expandability of network by allowing participating nodes to authenticate each other without being interrupted by joining the cluster. The security, efficiency and robustness of the proposed model were evaluated through simulation.

본 논문에서는 효과적인 앙상블 머신의 구축을 위한 새로운 방안을 제시한다. 효과적인 앙상블의 구축을 위해서는 앙상블 멤버들간의 상관관계가 아주 낮아야 하며 또한 각 앙상블 멤버들은 전체 문제를 어느 정도는 정확하게 학습하면서도 서로들간의 불일치 하는 부분이 존재해야 한다는 것이 여러 논문들에 발표되었다. 본 논문에서는 주어진 문제의 다양한 면을 학습한 다수의 앙상블 후보 네트웍을 생성하기 위하여 건설적 학습 알고리즘과 능동 학습 알고리즘을 결합한 형태의 신경망 학습 알고리즘을 이용한다. 이 신경망의 학습은 최소 은닉 노드에서 최대 은닉노드까지 점진적으로 은닉노드를 늘려나감과 동시에 후보 데이타 집합에서 학습에 사용할 훈련 데이타를 점진적으로 선택해 나가면서 이루어진다. 은닉 노드의 증가시점에서 앙상블의 후부 네트웍이 생성된다. 이러한 한 차례의 학습 진행을 한 chain이라 정의한다. 다수의 chain을 통하여 다양한 형태의 네트웍 크기와 다양한 형태의 데이타 분포를 학습한 후보 내트웍들이 생성된다. 이렇게 생성된 후보 네트웍들은 확률적 비례 선택법에 의해 선택된 후 generalized ensemble method (GEM)에 의해 결합되어 최종적인 앙상블 성능을 보여준다. 제안된 알고리즘은 한개의 인공 데이타와 한 개의 실세계 데이타에 적용되었다. 실험을 통하여 제안된 알고리즘에 의해 구성된 앙상블의 최대 일반화 성능은 다른 알고리즘에 의한 그것보다 우수함을 알 수 있다.

In current public blockchain, any node can see every blocks, so that public blockchain provider transparent property. However, some application requires the confidential information to be stored in the block. Therefore, this paper proposes a multi-layer blockchain that have the public block layer and the private block for confidential information. This paper suggests the requirement for encryption of private block. Also, this paper shows the t-of-n threshold cryptosystem without dealer who is trusted third party. Moreover, the delegated node who has key information can be withdraw the delegated node group or a new delegated node can join in the delegated node group. Therefore, the paper proposes an efficient key information resharing scheme for withdraw and join. Finally proposed scheme satisfies the requirements for encryption and fairness.

MANET is a dynamically reconfigurable wireless network with no fixed infrastructure (base station, or AP). In order to provide the data service in MANET, we need an efficient routing protocol to deliver the data to the wanted destination at a mobile node. A method of routing protocols called reactive routing protocol has recently got attention because of their low routing overhead. But a method of flooding broadcasts the packet to all of its neighbors. For this reason, each of the node has high routing overhead to route and keep path discovery. Accordingly in this paper, I propose an adaptive flooding scheme using N-hop look-ahead in MANET, md an optimal N value of doing flooding the packet to limited area. Because of being basically ignorant about topological changes, each of the node did not spontaneously cope with path alteration. But an efficient flooding scheme applying N-hop look-ahead is more resilient to topology changes than traditional algorithms. And also with this efficient flooding scheme, the simulation results demonstrate excellent reduction of routing overhead.

본 논문은 저전력 무선 임피던스 기반 구조물 건전성 감시 USN 시스템을 활용하여 electro-mechanical Impedance 센서의 일종인 PZT센서를 부착한 배관 구조물의 건전성을 진단하는 방법과 그 실험 결과에 대해 소개 한다. 기존에는 건설구조물에 가해지는 전기적인 입출력비에 해당하는 임피던스를 계측하기 위해서 비교적 고가의 대형 계측 장비가 필요로 했으며, 구조물에 설치된 센서를 계측장비에 연결하기 위한 유선의 케이블 작업 역시 추가로 필요했었다. 대형 배관 구조물의 경우에는 이러한 문제점 때문에 임피던스를 이용한 능동형 센서가 제대로 활용되지 못하고 있고 비정기적인 비파괴검사에만 국한되어 사용되어 왔다. USN기술은 저전력 소출력 무선통신을 통해 기존의 계측시스템과는 다른 상시모니터링의 장점을 가지고 있는 기술로서 최근 토목/건설 분야에서 적극적으로 활용이 되는 융합기술이다. 본 논문에서 구조물 건전성 감시 분야와 저전력 무선 계측 기술의 통합을 통해 얻어진 최적화된 배관 건전도 진단 센서 노드의 효율성을 정량적 실험 데이터를 통해 입증하고, 앞으로의 연구 방향에 대한 제안으로 끝을 맺는다.
