Recently with the advancement of local wireless communication technologies, digital trends of audio contents and devices are paving the way for new experiences to network-based audio streaming services. In this paper, we present the Wireless Audio Sharing (WASH) technology over Bluetooth and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). WASH system provides an audio sharing mechanism over multiple users and also provides stereo audio streaming between Bluetooth-enabled devices and Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) media devices connected to wired/wireless LANs. To achieve these, we extended the Bluetooth audio distribution profile and combined the extended profile with the UPnP AV architecture. With the implementation of this WASH technology, we show some experimental results of the stereo audio streaming in a real environment.

In this paper, an algorithm that provisions proportional differentiation of packet delays is proposed with an objective for enhancing quality of service (QoS) in future packet networks. It features an adaptive scheme that adjusts the target delay every time slot to compensate the deviation from the target delay which is caused by the prediction error on the traffic to be arrived in the next time slot. It predicts the traffic to be arrived at the beginning of a time slot and measures the actual arrived traffic at the end of the time slot. The difference between them is utilized to the delay control operation for the next time slot to offset it. As it compensates the prediction error continuously, it shows superior adaptability to the bursty traffic as well as the exponential rate traffic. It is demonstrated through simulations that the algorithm meets the quantitative delay bounds and shows superiority to the traffic fluctuation in comparison with the conventional non-adaptive mechanism. The algorithm is implemented with VHDL on a Xilinx Spartan XC3S1500 FPGA and the performance is verified under the test board based on the XPC860P CPU.

Today, Software as a Service(SaaS) is being recognized as a key means to enable the innovation of software distribution. Despite the increase in the interest in SaaS, individuals as well as businesses are not yet making an extensive use of it. This research is aimed at identifying and analyzing the antecedents of intentions to use SaaS. We proposed a research model to predict an individual's intention to use SaaS based on the Technology Acceptance Model(TAM). To this end, we conducted a questionnaire survey in which actual software users participated. An empirical analysis has been performed to test the reliability and validity and the hypotheses using SPSS and AMOS software packages. The results of the analysis revealed that functionality, interoperability and economic benefits have positive effects on the intention to use SaaS, while system quality has no significant effect on the behavioral intention. We discussed practical as well as academic implications, and provided research directions.

천리안위성은 통신, 해양, 기상 임무를 띤 우리나라 최초의 정지궤도복합위성으로 지난 2010년 6월 27일 성공적으로 발사된 후 동경 128.2도, 적도 상공 약 35,800 km 고도의 정지궤도에 안착되었다. 이 후 약 6개월 여의 궤도상시험 기간과 2개월의 안정화 기간을 거쳐 2011년 4월 1일, 기상청은 위성자료 서비스를 위한 정규운영을 시작하였다. 천리안위성의 기상탑재체인 기상영상기는 다중채널 복사계로 한반도 주변뿐만 아니라 전 지구적 기후 변화 및 대기 운동 그리고 급변하는 기상상황을 감시하기 위해 실시간 관측과 전송 시스템을 갖추고 있다. 이 기상영상기를 운용하는 기상청 국가기상위성센터 지상국에서는 자료수신 및 영상전처리시스템을 갖추고 수신된 위성신호로부터 영상 분리 후 복사보정 및 기하보정을 수행하며, 위성자료배포시스템을 통해 일정 시간 간격 내에 사용자들에게 처리 자료를 배포하고 있다. 영상 복사보정은 기상영상기 내의 각 채널별 디텍터가 감지한 지구복사휘도의 전기적 신호를 지상에서 복사휘도와 휘도온도 값으로 변환하는 작업이다. 절대검정체로서 흑체와 우주보기 값을 이용하는 적외채널과 달리, 가시채널 디텍터는 절대검정체가 탑재되어있지 않기 때문에 우주보기 값 외에 대리검정 방법을 이용한다. 이러한 가시채널 노화도 분석에 달 관측을 통한 비교 분석이 한 방법으로 제시되고 있다. 천리안위성 기상영상기의 정규운영 1년간의 가시채널 디텍터의 노화도는 6 % 이내로 측정되었고, 이는 일반적인 정지궤도위성 센서의 노화도인 6 % 내외 값 변화량에 견주어 잘 운용되고 있음을 시사한다. 본 논문에는 천리안위성 기상영상자료의 품질 및 매개변수의 변화 경향도 함께 제시하였으며, 달을 이용한 기상영상기 노화 분석과 보정에 관한 내용을 싣고 있다.

IT security service provides customers with the capability of protecting the networked information asset and infrastructures, and the scope of security service is expanding from a technology-intensive task to a comprehensive protection system for IT environment. To improve the quality of this service, a research model which help assess the quality is required. Several research models have been proposed and used in various service areas, but few cases are found for IT security service. In this work, a research model for the IT security quality has been proposed, based on research models such as SERVQUAL and E-S-QUAL. With the proposed model, factors which affect the service quality and the best quality measure have been identified. And the feasibility of using quantitative measures for quality has been examined. For analysis, structural equation modeling and various statistical methods such as principal component analysis were used. The result shows that satisfaction is the most significant measure affected by the proposed quality factors. Two quality factors, fulfillment and empathy, are the main determinants of the service quality. This leads to a strategy of quality improvement based on factors of emotion and perception, not of technology. The quantitative measures are considered as promising alternative measures, when combined with other measures. In order to design reliable quantitative measures, more work should be done on target processing time and users' expectation. It is hoped that work of this research will provide efficient tools and methods to improve the quality of IT security service and help future research works for other IT service areas.

UHD content is characterized by higher bandwidth requirements to provide seamless playback. The existing HTTP adaptive streaming scheme periodically requests video segment of lower quality than the available bandwidth in the steady state. In the steady state, the On-Off pattern is repeated due to the difference of the available bandwidth and the encoding rate of the content. And the repeated Off interval is causing the problem that can not efficiently use the available bandwidth. In the wireless environment where the delay and loss rate are higher with large bandwidth fluctuations, this problem is exacerbated because the available bandwidth is estimated inaccurately. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a segment scheduling scheme for efficient bandwidth utilization of UHD contents streaming in wireless environment. Proposed scheme is a group segment that simultaneously reqeusts multiple segments in one request message in order to reduce frequency of OFF interval. Through simulation, Our scheme improves bandwidth utilization.
