For the implementation of large scale GRID systems, the performance scalability in resource scheduling is clearly to be addressed. In this research, we analyzed existing scheduling frameworks from the viewpoint of the performance and propose a novel resource scheduling framework called resource parameter based scheduling. Proposed scheduling framework consists of three components. The first is the resource parameter graph that expresses resource information via inter-resource relation and the composition base on the hierarchical structure. The second component is the resource parameter tree to be used for the implementation of the memory-based index of resource information. The third component is the resource information repository which mostly consists of static data to be used for the general resource information services. This paper presents the details of the framework.

There exist virtual machine scheduling delays in virtualized environment in which virtual machines share physical resources. Many resource management systems have been proposed to provide better application QoS through monitoring and analyzing application performance and resource utilization of virtual machines. However, those management systems don't consider virtual machine scheduling delays, result in incorrect application performance evaluation and QoS violations In this paper, we propose an application behavior analysis considering the scheduling delays, and a virtual machine priority allocation scheme based on the analysis to improve the application response time by minimizing the overall virtual machine scheduling delays.

In this paper, we design and verify the MAC chip of the two-stage AWG-based WDM-PON which considers 128 ONUs and 32 wavelengths. Each wavelength with the capacity of 1Gbps is allocated to ONU for downstream transmission but each wavelength for upstream transmission can be shared by four ONUs. Therefore, MAC protocol is required to avoid the collision and use the network resource efficiently among ONUs which are sharing the same wavelength. To design a request/permit-based MAC protocol, we define a unit-chip module called sub-MAC. The WDM-PON with 128 ONUs can be implemented by using 32 sub-MAC modules. The sub-MAC consists of one control unit, one receipt unit and four transmission units. The state transition diagram of the module is described by the internal/external control signals among the functional units. The function of the sub-MAC module is verified through logic simulation using ModelSIM.

In the virtualized server systems, a scheduler in a hypervisor is responsible to assign physical resources for virtual machines. However, the traditional scheduler is hard to provide optimized resource allocation considering the amount of I/O requests. Especially, the drawback hinders performance of software load balancer which runs on virtual machines to distribute I/O requests from the clients. In this paper, we propose a new architecture to improve the performance of software load balancer using multiprocess. Our architecture aims to improve hardware resource utilization and overall performance of the server systems which utilize virtualization technology. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed architecture for the various cases.

This paper proposes an interactive VOD system to serve truly interactive VCR services using multicast delivery, client buffer and web-caching technique which implements the distributed proxy in Head-End- Network(HNET). This technique adopts some caches in the HNET that consists of a Switching Agent(SA), some Head-End-Nodes(HEN) and many clients. In this model, HENs distributively store the requested video under the control of SA. Also, client buffer dynamically expands to support various VCR playback rate. Thus, interactive services are offered with transmitting video streams from network, HENs and stored streams on buffer. Therefore this technique makes the load of network occur In the limited area, minimizes the additional channel allocation from server and restricts the transmission of duplicated video contents

Recently, according to the rapid increase of Web users, various kinds of Web applications have been being developed. Hence, Web QoS(Quality of Service) becomes a critical issue in the Web services, such as e-commerce, Web hosting, etc. Nevertheless, most Web servers currently process various requests from Web users on a FIFO basis, which can not provide differentiated QoS. This paper presents a load balancing method to provide differentiated Web QoS in clustering web server. The first is the kernel-level approach, which is adding a real-time scheduling process to the operating system kernel to maintain the priority of user requests determined by the scheduling process of Web server. The second is the load-balancing approach, which uses IP-level masquerading and tunneling technology to improve reliability and response speed upon user requests. The third is the dynamic load-balancing approach, which uses the parameters related to the MIB-II of SNMP and the parameters related to load of the system such as memory and CPU.

Mobile IP Low Latency Handoffs(l) allow greater support for real-time services on a Mobile IP network by minimizing the period of time when a mobile node is unable to send or receive IP packets due to the delay in the Mobile IP Registration process. However, on Mobile IP network with AAA servers that are capable of performing Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting(AAA) services, every Registration has to be traversed to the home network to achieve new session keys, that are distributed by home AAA server, for a new Mobile IP session. This communication delay is the time taken to re-authentication the mobile node and to traverse between foreign and home network even if the mobile node has been previously authorized to old foreign agent. In order to reduce these extra time overheads, we present a method that performs Low Latency Handoffs without requiring further involvement by home AAA server. The method re-uses the previously assigned session keys. To provide confidentiality and integrity of session keys in the phase of key exchange between agents, it uses a key sharing method by gateway foreign agent that performs a trusted thirty party. The proposed method allows the mobile node to perform Low Latency Handoffs with fast as well as secure operation.

In recently years, with the growth of social media and the development of mobile devices, the data have been significantly increased. Hadoop has been widely utilized as a typical distributed storage and processing framework. The tasks in Mapreduce based on the Hadoop distributed file system are allocated to the map as close as possible by considering the data locality. However, there are data being requested frequently according to the data analysis tasks of Mapreduce. In this paper, we propose a hot-data replication mechanism to improve the processing speed of Mapreduce according to data access patterns. The proposed scheme reduces the task processing time and improves the data locality using the replica optimization algorithm on the high access frequency of hot data. It is shown through performance evaluation that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing scheme in terms of the load of access frequency.

Cloud computing is one of the distributed computing environments and utilizes several computing resources. Cloud environment uses a virtual machine to process a requested job. To balance a workload and process a job rapidly, cloud environment uses a provisioning technique and assigns a task with a status of virtual machine. However, a scheduling method for cloud computing requires a definition of virtual machine availabilities, which have an obscure meaning. In this paper, we propose Fuzzy logic driven Virtual machine Provisioning scheduling using Resource Evaluation(FVPRE). FVPRE analyzes a state of every virtual machine and actualizes a value of resource availability. Thus FVPRE provides an efficient provisioning scheduling with a precise evaluation of resource availability. FVPRE shows a high throughput and utilization for job processing on cloud environments.
