According to the service attributes, D2D communications establish 1-1, or 1-n channels and require the differentiated device discovery technology. This paper proposes a sector-based device discovery mechanism for 1-n D2D communication scenario in LTE-Advanced networks that a disaster happened. Our proposal is a mechanism that can extend the coverage in a disaster situation which a number of devices(survivors) need to be discovered in a short time. In the single cell environment, a larger discovery coverage can be obtained, and in the multi-cell, it is possible to mitigate the interference with adjacent links due to sector-based coverage control. Through a set of simulations, we have confirmed that our proposal has better performance in the number of devices discovered and the interference than the legacy broadcast device discover mechanism.

In this paper, we propose a discovery protocol for finding nearby mobile applications and services in a device-to-device communications system. The device-to-device communication technology enables proximity-based services such as mobile social networks and mobile marketing. For realizing these proximity-based services, it is essential to design a discovery protocol which pinpoints the devices with mobile applications of interest among hundreds and thousands of devices in proximity. In the infrastructure-less networks such as ad hoc networks, we can design the discovery protocol that periodically broadcasts a short discovery code containing the compressed information of the mobile applications. In this paper, we design the discovery protocol with the discovery code generated by using a hash function and a Bloom filter. We also mathematically analyze the performance of the proposed protocol.

Ubiquitous Web Services is able to be specified future Web Services technology for connecting with various application services in any device and network environments. The devices, in ubiquitous environment, have dynamic characteristic such as location and statuse. So, we must support methods of dynamic service discovery in ad-hoc network. There are many related works at transaction, security, QoS, semantic and Web Services composition with various fields. Recently, the studies are interested in the Ubiquitous by development of computing and network technology. However, they are an early stage. For this reason, in this paper, we propose a WSUN(Web Services on Universal Networks) for Ubiquitous Web Services. It is a SOA based framework. And this paper extracts necessity of WSUN environment from scenario. The framework is composed of US Broker(Universal Service Broker). It is designed for satisfying the conditions and supports dynamic service discovery using a US Registry (Universal Service Registry). Consequently. clients are able to discover and use Universal Service by protocol stack of the US Broker for Web Services. And it is a strong point which supports interoperability between heterogeneous networks.

The DDS (Data Distribution Service) is a data-centric communication technology that provides an efficient communication service that supports a dynamic plug & play through an automatic setting of participants' location information for each data (Topic) by using DDS discovery technique. This paper proposes the hierarchical-structured DDS discovery technique (SPDP-TBF) suitable for the large-scale distributed systems by comparing and analyzing the existing DDS discovery techniques in terms of performance and problem areas. The proposed SPDP-TBF performs the periodic discovery of the involved participants only by having separate hierarchical managers which take charge of the registration and search (of participants) so that a participant sends its information to the related participants only, and it enhances the effectiveness of the message transfer. Moreover, the proposed SPDP-TBF provides the improved scalability by performing the hierarchical discovery through hierarchical manager nodes so that it can be applied to the large-scale distributed system.

In this paper, we propose an efficient service discovery scheme that combines peer-to-peer caching advertisement and node ID-based selective forwarding service requests. P2P caching advertisement quickly spreads available service information and reduces average response hop count since service information store in neighbor node cache. In addition, node ID-based service requests can minimize network transmission delay and can reduce network load since do not broadcast to all neighbor node. Proposed scheme does not require a central lookup server or registry and not rely on flooding that create a number of transmission messages. Simulation results show that proposed scheme improved network loads and response times since reduce a lot of messages and reduce average response hop counts using adaptive selective nodes among neighbor nodes compared to traditional flooding-based protocol.

최근 유비쿼터스 환경 실현을 위해서 무선 센서 네트워크에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. IEEE 802.15.4 에 기반한 ZigBee 에 관한 연구는 이미 많은 진행이 되어 있다. 최근에는 IPv6 기술이 이슈화 되면서 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에도 IPv6 주소를 사용 할 수 있을 것으로 기대되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 IPv6 주소를 갖는 센서가 서비스를 제공하기만 하는 기존의 패러다임에서 벗어나 센서가 서비스를 찾는 모델을 제시한다. 그래서 IPv6 주소를 갖는 센서 네트워크의 보다 효율적인 서비스 디스커버리를 위해 객체 타입을 IPv6 주소의 일부분으로 정의해 준다. 이러한 객체타입을 이용한 IPv6 기반의 센서 네트워크의 효율성을 본 논문에서 검증한다.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅환경에서는 다양한 서비스가 존재한다. 사용자들은 수많은 서비스들을 사용하기에 앞서 이들이 어디에 있는지, 어떻게 사용해야 하는지를 알아야 한다. SLP, Jini, 그리고 UPnP 같은 대부분의 현존하는 서비스 디스커버리 (Service Discovery) 기술들은 키워드 매치 방법으로 서비스를 검색한다. 이 같은 방식에서는 사용자가 자신이 이용하고자 하는 서비스에 대한 정확한 명칭을 알고 있어야 서비스를 검색할 수 있다. 그러나 유비쿼터스 환경에서는 매우 다양한 서비스가 존재하고, 사용자들 대부분은 해당 서비스의 전문가가 아니기 때문에 정확한 키워드를 선택하여, 원하는 서비스를 찾는데 어려움이 있다. 시맨틱 웹 분야에서 새롭게 떠오른 온톨로지는 특정 분야에서 사용되는 정보의 구조 혹은 용어에 관한 내용을 사용자들이 공유할 수 있도록 정리해놓은 것이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 온톨로지의 특성을 이용하여, 사용자에게 이용 가능한 서비스에 대한 정보들을 제공하여 사용자가 다양한 서비스를 쉽게 찾아 쓸 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방식은 에이전트간의 온톨로지 교환을 통해서 이루어지며, 서비스 블록(Service Block)이라고 불리는 공간 안에서 수행된다. 또한 서비스 컨트롤러(Service Controller)를 이용하여 서비스를 쉽게 사용할 수 있도록 UI 를 제공한다. 본 시스템을 위하여 JENA2, JADE, Aglet, OWL, 그리고 RDQL 이 사용되었다.

In Smart-cities, various types of integrated services must be linked to provide services to applications. Therefore, flexibility must be ensured between services so that various services can be efficiently provided. In order to secure the flexibility among services, it is very important to have a function to dynamically discover and invoke a desired service by searching for a semantic service by reflecting a recognized context through real-time context-aware in smart-cities. To date, quite a number of semantic service discovery techniques have been developed. However, they have not been verified as suitable for use in the smart-city domain. In this study, we tried to verify the existing ones to use a suitable one. We tested most of existing semantic service discovery techniques, but we found that none of them is suitable to our research. Therefore, we developed our own semantic service discovery technique. This paper introduces our work and presents the performance evaluation results that demonstrate that our developed works well and show good performance. For the performance evaluation, the experimental system was actually constructed and the real performance was measured. In the experiment, we implemented the semantic service discovery scenario that dynamically searches and calls the services needed to provide fire accident management services in smart cities.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of the integrated search services for integrated libraries operated by local governments in Korea. The target of analysis was integrated libraries operated by 25 local governments in Seoul, and the analysis elements were selected from service functions in 12 areas related to integrated search. The results of the study are as follows. First, the integrated library is an association of public libraries and small libraries in autonomous districts and provides integrated search services. The provided integrated search service function, types of bibliographic information, and facets are not diverse. Second, the records in the search results were mostly item types, not title types. Third, enrichment information supplementing book information consists of book introductions, related information, book-related keywords, and loan-related information. Fourth, integrated search shows the form of integrated OPAC based on integrated catalog DB rather than discovery-type search. It concentrates on providing an integrated search for catalog DBs distributed in public libraries or small libraries in the autonomous district. Fifth, most integrated libraries provide similar service types. Based on these results, improvement plans were proposed for domestic public libraries to expect discovery-type integrated search services.
