In the case of link congestion, most of the existing ad-hoc routing protocols like AODV and DSR do not try to discover a new route if there is no change in the network topology. Hence, with low mobility, traffic may get concentrated on some specific nodes. Since mobile devices have low battery power and low computing capability, traffic concentration on a specific node is not a desirable phenomenon. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new protocol called SLAP (Simple Load-balancing Ad-hoc routing Protocol) which resolves the traffic concentration problem by letting each node check its own load situation and give up its role as a packet forwarder gracefully in the case of high traffic load. We compare the performance of SLAP with that of AODV and DSR in terms of the forwarding traffic distribution.

The article was carried out to study the relationships between the causes of barelands and topographic factors such as altitudes, slopes and bearings. Using the forest utility demarcation maps of 1 : 50,000 in scale and the aerial photographs drawn and taken by the Forest Resources Institute, Seoul, the areas of each bareland and the topographic factors were calculated from the maps and photographs and the critical causes of barelands were analyzed based on the various topographic factors. The results obtained were as follows: 1. There were some positive relation between area of barelands and slopes, and between area of barelands and altitudes. 2. However. there were no significant difference between number of barelands and altitudes, between number of barelands and slopes, between number of barelands and bearings, and between area of barelands and bearings.

As IoT devices increase exponentially, minimizing MIMO interference and increasing transmission capacity for sending and receiving IoT information through multiple antennas remain the biggest issues. In this paper, secret key-level distribution mechanism using deep learning is proposed to minimize MIMO-based IoT communication noise. The proposed mechanism minimizes resource loss during transmission and reception process by dispersing IoT information sent and received through multiple antennas in batches using deep learning. In addition, the proposed mechanism applied a multidimensional key distribution processing process to maximize capacity through multiple antenna multiple stream transmission at base stations without direct interference between the APs. In addition, the proposed mechanism synchronizes IoT information by deep learning the frequency of use of secret keys according to the number of IoT information by applying the method of distributing secret keys in dimension according to the number of frequency channels of IoT information in order to make the most of the multiple antenna technology.

The objective of this study was to identify generational difference of work value and job engagement. Total 256 nurses participated in Korea. Analysis of variance(ANOVA) was conducted to investigate the generational differences of work value and job engagement and factors of work values influencing to job engagement was identified by multiple regression analysis. Nurses considered financial benefits, job security, and work environment as the most important thing and autonomy, possibilities of promotion, and contribution to society were considered less important in their work life. Y and Z-generation nurses respected more to interests at work and time availability for private life than X-generation in work life.

Network coding has been extensively studied to increase the network throughput by exploiting the broadcast and overhearing capabilities. In this paper, we formulate a network utility maximization problem to improve the network utility in multichannel, multiradio and multisession wireless multihop network with intrasession network coding. To find the solution of this problem, we propose a congestion control, distributed rate control, and heuristic resource allocation algorithm. We find the network utility and evaluate the performance in multichannel, multiradio and multisession environment by using MATLAB. Finally, the results show that the proposed schemes can achieve throughput improvement by performing the network utility optimization in wireless multihop network.

As the traffic grows rapidly in the Internet, the QoS guarantee of the flows and the traffic engineering problems have become very important issues. MPLS has more advantages to solve the problems than existing IP routing because of its use of multiple paths between the source and destination pairs Particularly, the availability of Constraint-based Shortest Path First(CSPF) algorithm and explicit route in MPLS made the problem referred above to be solved efficiently. However, the CSPF algorithm has the characteristic of selecting the shortest path of all paths which meet the traffics' QoS constraints Therefore, even though there are alternative paths to route traffic, alternate QoS paths may not be found and best-effort traffic will be dropped during congestion period In this paper, we present the network resource optimization method related to the traffic engineering by using load balancing through routing in MPLS network.

A Wi-Fi mesh network providing multi-hop wireless connections based on IEEE 802.11 PHY/MAC technology has recently received a significant attention as a network infrastructure that interconnects RFID systems and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). However, the current IEEE 802.11 contention-based MAC protocol cannot fully utilize the network capacity due to eithor frame collisions or unused network resources. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-channel scheduling MAC (MCS-MAC) protocol for Wi-Fi mesh networks. Under the secondary interference model of Wi-Fi mesh networks, the MCS-MAC protocol can maximize the network throughput via activation of collision-free links that has a maximal link weight. Through the simulations, we show that the throughput of the MCS-MAC protocol is at least three times higher than that of existing MAC protocols in Wi-Fi mesh networks.

High speed computer, large scale storage device and high speed computer network are computing infrastructure which we can easily access to in these days. However, many computer simulations in natural or applied science such as molecular simulation require more computing power as well as larger scale of storage. Grid computing which is a next generation of distributed computing environment, is one of solution for the new requirements. Even though many researches have been going on Grid computing, those are oriented to communication interface and protocols, and middleware like globus tool kits[2, 3]. Therefore research on application level platform or application itself is yet premature and it makes real users be difficult to utilize Grid system for their research. In this paper, we suggest a new user environment and an abstract job model for simulation experiments on MGrid(Molecular Simulation Grid). It will make users be able to utilize Grid resources efficiently and reliably.

This study intends to provide a model for the establishment of a rehabilitation room for the safety and rehabilitation of firefighters by proposing a basis for the establishment of a firefighter rehabilitation room at disaster sites. To achieve the research objectives, a questionnaire, frequency analysis, and variance analysis were conducted to assess the effectiveness of rehabilitation rooms for firefighters. Based on the results of the research, the policy suggestions for operating an effective rehabilitation room are as follows. An organization of the operation of the rehabilitation room should be established at each firefighting headquarters, and human resources must be secured for the operation of the rehabilitation room. In addition, detailed operating standards such as the operation contents of the rehabilitation room's operation manager and its operator, as well as its operation procedures should be prepared. Additionally, training to improve the rehabilitation room and its understanding is needed.

Clustering algorithm is an essential element to implement a hierarchical routing protocol, especially for a large-scale wireless sensor network. In this paper, we propose a new type of energy-efficient clustering algorithm, which maximizes the physical distance between cluster head and gateway by a neighbor node discovery mechanism. Furthermore, a slave/master patching scheme is introduced as a useful means of further improving the energy-efficiency. It has been shown that the number of cluster heads can be reduced by as many as 21% as compared with the existing clustering algorithms.
