Grid computing has been developed for resolving large-scaled computing problems through geographically distributed heterogeneous resources. In order to guarantee effective and reliable job processing, grid computing needs resource scheduling model. So, we propose a resource performance measurement scheduling model which allocates job to resources with resource performance measurement. We assess resources using resource performance measurement formula, and implement the resource performance measurement scheduling model in DEVS simulation modeling.

Inexpensive high performance computer systems combined with high speed networks and machine independent communication libraries have made cluster computing a viable option for parallel applications. In a heterogeneous cluster environment, efficient resource management is critically important since the computing power of the individual computer system is a significant performance factor when executing applications in parallel. This paper presents a dynamic task manager, called DWM (dynamic work manager). It makes a heterogeneous cluster system fully utilize the different computing power of its individual computer system. We measure the performance of DWM in a heterogeneous cluster environment with several kernel-level benchmark programs and their programming complexity quantitatively. From the experiments, we found that DWM provides competitive performance with a notable reduction in programming effort.

The clustering environment with heterogeneous workstations provides the cost effectiveness and usability for executing applications in parallel. Load balancing is considered a necessary feature for a cluster of heterogeneous workstations to minimize the turnaround time. Previously, static load balancing that assigns a predetermined weight for the processing capability of each workstation, or dynamic approaches which execute a benchmark program to get relative processing capability of each workstation were proposed. The execution of the benchmark program, which has nothing to do with the application being executed, consumes the computation time and the overall turnaround time is delayed. In this paper, we present efficient methods for task distribution and task migration, based on the relative load index. We designed and implemented a load balancing system for the clustering environment with heterogeneous workstations. Turnaround times of our methods and the round-robin approach, as well as the load balancing method using a benchmark program, were compared. The experimental results show that our methods outperform all the other methods that we compared.

In the near future, people will wish to access many kinds of heterogeneous networks to use their services anytime and anywhere. Owing to the heterogeneity of networks, there must be many kinds of protocols to guarantee secure services. The mobile device can depend in a middleware for accessing services in the heterogeneous networks and the middleware helps the mobile device to communicate with services without blowing concrete protocols. If a secure channel is necessary, the middleware may access a private key in the mobile device to perform a security protocol. In this paper, we focus on the security of a private key in the mobile device against malicious middlewares. To do so, we introduce two models for a user to protect his/her private key against malicious middlewares by generating authentication data(e.g., digital signatures) without keeping the private key in the mobile device.

This paper proposes a G-BLAST(BLAST using Grid Computing) system, an integrated software package for BLAST searches operated in heterogeneous distributed environment. G-BLAST employed 'database splicing' method to improve the performance of BLAST searches using exists computing resources. G-BLAST is a basic local alignment search tool of DNA Sequence using grid computing in heterogeneous distributed environment. The G-BLAST improved the existing BLAST search performance in gene sequence analysis. Also G-BLAST implemented the pipeline and data management method for users to easily manage and analyze the BLAST search results. The proposed G-BLAST system has been confirmed the speed and efficiency of BLAST search performance in heterogeneous distributed computing.

The spread of Internet and the appear of Downsizing, SI(System Integration) is chaning centralized computing to distributed computing. Also distributed computing is rapidly changing to Ubiquitous computing escape from hard wire connected network. CORBA(Common Object Request Broker Architecture) is a middleware that used for smoothness communication between application program and operation system in a different environment. However distributed computing environment is not safe from the danger, the attack like virus, worm is too intellectual and variety. In this paper, we design a new DB security model and suggest efficiency of it in Ubiquitous environment base on CSS(CORBA Security Service) that present ed from OMG(Object Management Group).

Resource management in grid computing environment is essential for integration and interaction among heterogeneous resources. This paper discusses resource management methods of centralized and decentralized broker-based modeling for solving complex problems of resource management and presents design and development of the decentralized broker-based resource management modeling in grid computing environment. This model comprises a global resource broker and a local resource broker, and we derive reduction of communication and functional dispersion of Job management using a local resource broker. The simulation experiment shows the improvement of resource utilization and average response time and proves that this model improves utilization of resources and replies to user requests promptly.

유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅의 확산과 사용자의 이동성 증가는 사용자에게 적합한 서비스를 제공해주기 위해서 미리 설정된 특정 서비스나 정책으로는 구현하기 어렵게 되었음을 의미한다. 또한 사용자의 서비스 영역은 미리 정의된 환경으로 제한되지 않고 사용자가 이동하는 모든 영역으로 확대되고 있다. 따라서 기존의 홈네트워크와 같은 특정 기술 및 서비스 시스템을 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅에 적용하는 것에는 한계가 존재한다. 서비스 영역의 확장과 융합, 사용자의 생활권을 포함하는 산업적인 부분에까지 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅은 확산됨에 따라서 다각적인 IT산업 분야에서 새로운 연구가 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 새로운 산업IT요구에 따라 다양한 서비스 영역으로 적응적인 시스템의 구현과 정보보호 및 서비스 구현에 대한 동적이며 적응적인 정책의 구현이 시급한 실정이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 서비스의 확장과 융합에 따라 발생될 수 있는 정책적인 문제점을 분석하고 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅을 위한 정책을 제안하고자 한다. IT 기술을 다양한 산업 분야로 확장하기 위해서는 지능적인 서비스에 대한 구현 방안이 고려돼야 할 것이다. 그리고 지능적 서비스를 위한 정책의 운영, 상황에 따른 추론 기술 및 서비스 관리 기술에 대한 연구가 병행되어야 한다. 단순히 기존 홈네트워크에서 적용되던 특정 상황에 따른 서비스의 구현이나 한정된 상황 정보(Context)에 대한 관리 기술만으로는 고도화된 산업IT기술을 실현하기 어렵다. 따라서 확장성 및 효율성을 증대하기 위한 방안으로 이기종 환경 네트워크 시스템에서 발생 가능한 보안 문제 해결을 위한 multi-resolution 기술과 온톨로지 기반의 상황 정보 관리 기술을 제안한다.
