For higher reliability against a link failure of a control network in railway vehicles, a recovery mechanism is needed. We introduce a problem that, when a link failure occurs in a ring-topology control network, a node may experience a significant increase of transmission delay depending on its relative position within the network. We then propose two mechanisms to solve this problem: (1) differentiating and prioritizing node traffic in forwarding; and (2) switching some nodes to a backup bus-topology network. Our simulation study shows that, while the first mechanism achieves a limited gain by only compensating queuing delay, the second one gets a sufficient gain which is impacted by the number of nodes switched to the bus network.

인터넷에서 통합서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 종단간 다양한 QoS를 지원해야하는데 이를 위해서는 인터넷 뿐 아니라 종단 사용자와 인터넷을 연결하는 랜에서의 QoS 지원이 필요하다. 이에, IETF(Internet Enginnering Task Force)는 특정 링트 계층으로 구성되는 서브넷에서 QoS 보장을 지원하기 위한 기본 골격을 제안하였다. 그런데, 매체 접근 방식에 따라 서브넷이 제공할 수 있는 서비스의 정도가 크게 달라지기 때문에 이러한 IS802모델을 이더넷과 토큰링에 적용한 모델인 이더넷_IS, 토큰링_IS의 구현 방식을 제안하였다. 특별히, 이더넷의 경우 매체 접근 방식의 특성상 IS802모델의 적용만으로는 페이즈 관리자를 제안하고 이더넷_IS 모델에 페이즈 관리자 모듈을 첨가한 페이즈 관리자 모델을 추가로 제안하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존의 전통적인 이더넷과 토큰링 및 새롭게 표준화된 IS802모델을 적용한 이더넷_IS와 토큰링_IS, 그리고 페이즈 모델간의 성능을 비교하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과에 의하여, 페이즈 모델의 경우 이더넷의 매체 접근 방식을 상당히 보완함으로써 QoS 보장을 요구하는 플로우에 대해서는 망의 여건에 대해 비교적 안정적인 서비스를 제공할 수 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다.

Mitologia is about visualizing relations of information in user-oriented method. Most information given in life has invisible relations with each other. By analyzing the common characters and relations of information, we can not only measure the importance of the information but also grasp the overall properties of the information. Especially human relations are the major concerns of social network having several visualization methodologies shown by analyzing relations of each individual in society. We applied social network theory to grasp relationships between characters in Greek mythology representing a limited society. But the current tools of social network analysis have limits that they show the information one-sided way because of the ignorance of user-oriented design. Mitologia attempts to suggest the visual structure model more effective and easy to understand in analyzing data. We extracted connections among myth characters by evaluating classes, frequencies of appearance and emotional links they have. And we raised the understanding of users with furnishing the proper interaction to the information. The initial interface offers 4 kinds of indexes helping to access character nodes easily, while zoom-in function can be used for the detailed relations. The Zoom-in is quite different from usual filtering methods. It makes the irrelative information invisible so that users can find out the characters' relation more easily and quickly. This project suggests the layout to show overall information relationships and the appropriate interactions to present detailed information at the same time.

The important considerations in the design of fiber-optic networks are reliability and survivability preparing against a failure. The SDH(Synchronous Digital Hierarchy), the international standard of optical transmission, offers several network reconfiguration methods that enable network to be automatically restored from failure. One of the methods is the SHR(Self Healing Ring), which is a ring topology system. Most network providers have constructed their backbone networks with SHR architecture since it can provide survivability economically. The network architecture has eventually evolved into a multi-ring network comprised of interconnected rings. This paper addresses multi-ring network design problems is to minimize ring-construction cost. This problem can be formulated with MIP(mixed integer programming) model. However, it is difficult to solve the model within reasonable computing time on a large scale network because the model is NP-complete. Furthermore, in practice we should consider the problem of routing demands on rings to minimize total cost. This routing problem involves multiplex bundling at the intermediate nodes. A family of heuristic algorithms is presented for this problem. These algorithms include gateway selection and routing of inter-ring demands as well as load balancing on single rings. The developed heuristic algorithms are applied to some network provider's regional and long-distance transmission networks. We show an example of ring design and compare it with another ring topology design. Finally, we analysis the effect bundling.

In this paper, we consider ring embedding problem on (n,k)-star graphs. We first present a new ring embedding strategy and also prove the superiority in expandability by showing its application into the fault-tolerant ring embedding problem with edge faults. This result can be applied to the multicating applications that use the underlying cycle properties on the multi-computer system.

Future mobile communication networks, which consist of ATM-based B-ISDN backbone networks and wireless ATM networks, will provide u user with broadband connection and QoS service. These network systems need the lossless handoff methods which support user mobility, satisfy ATM features such as ATM cell ordering and no ATM cell duplication and minimize buffer requirement for ATM cell buffering. In this paper we suggest a multicast-based handoff method to supp$\alpha$t lossless connection as well as to minimize buffer overhead. It establishes a dynamic multicast connection between source terminal and wireless member AP (access point)s. When the mobile terminal receives data packet correctly, it notifies the positive acknowledgement of the packet to all member APs. And member APs then release the MT related temporary buffer space for MT's future movement. Therefore member APs can eliminate unnecessary buffer usage and manage the buffer space efficiently. Analysis result shows that our handoff method has better performance in buffer requirement for lossless and seamless connection services over VCT (virtual connection tree) method and other dynamic multicast-based handoff methods.

Since CC-NUMA architecture has to access remote memory, the interconnection network determines the performance of the CC-NUMA system. Bus which has been used as a popular interconnection network has many limits in a large-scale system because of the limited physical scalability and bandwidth. The dual ring interconnection network, composed of high-speed point-to-point links, is made to resolve the defects of the bus for the large-scale system. However, it also has a problem, in that the response latency is rapidly increased when many nodes are attached to the snooping based CC-NUMA system with the dual ring. In this paper, we propose a ring architecture with repeater nodes in order to overcome the problem of the dual ring on a snooping based CC-NUMA system, and design a repeater node adapted to this architecture. We will also analyze the effects of proposed architecture on the system performance and the response latency by using a probability-driven simulator.

In this paper, we propose a neural network model to converge the marine electric propulsion system and deep learning algorithm to predict the DC/DC converter output current in the electric propulsion regeneration system and to predict the battery charge during regeneration. In order to experiment with the proposed neural network, the input voltage and current of the PCM were measured and the data set was secured on the prototype PCM board. In addition, in order to improve the learning results in the insufficient data set, the scale of the data set was increased through data fitting and its learning was executed further. After learning, the difference between the data prediction result of the neural network model and the actual measurement data was compared. The proposed neural network model effectively showed the prediction of battery charge according to changes in input voltage and current. In addition, by predicting the characteristic change of the analog circuit constituting the DC/DC converter through a neural network, it is determined that the characteristics of the analog circuit should be considered when designing the regeneration system.

방송망의 효율적인 관리 및 운영을 위해 다양한 측정 및 모니터링 방법이 제안되고 있다. 특히 디지털 방송신호의 특징상 송신 장비의 열화가 진행되더라도 수신 장비의 채널 복호 및 오류정정, 다양한 형태의 페이딩(fading) 간섭으로 인해 이를 정확히 파악하기 어렵다. 또한 운영 인력의 축소, 관리 대상 매체의 증가 등 방송사의 인력관리의 문제등도 감안할 때, 다양한 매체의 종합적인 품질 관리를 위해서는 집약적이고 시간 지속적인 측정방법의 도입이 필요하다. 본 논문은 이러한 다매체 다채널 방송 환경에서 효율적인 측정 및 모니터링을 위해 집적화된 형태의 방송 모니터링 시스템의 구현 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 시스템은 다양한 매체의 튜너를 하나의 제어기에 연결하고 이를 스케줄링 기법에 의해 순차적으로 측정한 후 방송 품질의 핵심 파라미터 측정결과를 네트워크를 통해 원격 서버로 전송한다. 이를 통해 단기 및 장기모니터링을 실시할 수 있으며, 일간, 월간, 연간 신호의 변화를 종합적으로 측정 및 모니터링 할 수 있어 시간 및 계절에 따른 신호 품질의 변화 및 순간적인 방송 신호의 변화 등을 감지할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 방송 품질 모니터링 시스템이다.
