Existing streaming mechanisms have no consideration for the characteristics of streaming applications because they only consider network stability. In this paper, in order to overcome limitations of the previous work on video streaming, we propose a new video streaming mechanism called "HAViS(Hybrid Approach for Video Streaming)". The proposed mechanism includes more sophisticated features that consider both network and user requirements. Therefore, the HAViS mechanism improves the network stability by adjusting the sending rate of video stream based on the network state and it also provides the smooth playback by preventing the buffer underflow or overflow. Moreover, it is designed to take into consideration the streaming video content. Through the simulation, we prove that the HAViS mechanism efficiently uses the buffer resources and provides improved network stability and smooth playback.

WiMedia UWB technology is a fully distributed data communication technology developed for the application demanding a high data transmission rate in the wireless PAN area. In general, devices can send data either by reserving time slots or by using prioritized CSMA/CA. If the PCA protocol of prioritized CSMA/CA is used, they are suffered congestion as the number of devices increases. In this paper, we propose a Deterministic Access Protocol(DAP) in WiMedia WPANs. A DAP is a method to transmit data in the non-reserved DRP period without competition as each device informs the beacon order information in the beacon period and the queue information. In addition, the problem that the devices with a lower beacon slot number have more transmission opportunities is addressed by introducing the reference point. Simulation results are given to demonstrate that a DAP can improve the throughput and reduce the packet loss rate.

In this paper, we extend the multiple time scale control framework to the window-based congestion control, in particular, such as the TCP. This is performed by interfacing the TCP with a large time scale control module which adjusts the aggressiveness of the bandwidth consumption behavior exhibited by the TCP as a function of large time scale Self-Similar network state. i.e., conformation that exceeds the horizon of the feedback loop as determined by the RTT. How to effectively utilize such an information-due to its probabilistic nature, dispersion over the multiple time scales, and affection on the top of the existing window-based congestion controls-is a non-trivial problem. The evaluation performance of the multiple time scale TCP is facilitated by a simulation of the bench-mark environment which is based on the physical modeling of a self-similar traffic. We explicate our methodology for discerning and evaluating the impact of changes in transport protocols in the protocol stack under the self-similar traffic conditions. We discuss issues arising in the comparative performance evaluation under heavy-tailed workloads.

철도 신호제어시스템은 철도의 선로변에 위치하면서 열차의 안전운행을 책임지는 매우 중대한 시스템이다. 이러한 신호제어장치들은 각자의 고유의 기능을 수행하면서 다른 제어장치들과 링크되어 하나의 신호제어시스템으로 구성되어진다. 요즘 철도신호시스템에 사용되는 각 장치들이 전자화되어감에 따라 철도신호장치들간 정보전송을 위한 네트워크에 대한 중요성이 증대되었다. 철도신호시스템과 같은 고신뢰성이 요구되는 시스템에서 실시간 요구조건과 신뢰도를 만족시킬 수 있는 네트워크 기술에 대한 필요성 또한 증대되고 있다. 가장 널리 쓰이는 기술인 이더넷은 프로토콜 자체의 랜덤 특성으로 인해 실시간 요구사항을 만족하지 못하였으나 최근 들어 스위치드 이더넷으로 진화하면서 산업용 제어시스템에 이더넷 기술이 적용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 스위치드 이더넷의 이론적 해석을 통해 철도신호시스템에 적용 가능성을 확인하였고, 네트워크에 결함발생 시 결함검지 및 회복 알고리즘이 포함된 높은 신뢰성을 가진 이더넷 기반 네트워크 알고리즘과 모의시험을 통한 그 성능을 분석하였다.

Ad hoc sensor network is characterized by decentralized structure and ad hoc deployment. Sensor networks have all basic features of ad hoc network except different degrees such as lower mobility and more stringent energy requirements. Existing protocols provide different tradeoffs among some desirable characteristics such as fault tolerance, distributed computation, robustness, scalability and reliability. wireless protocols suggested so far are very limited, generally focusing on communication to a single base station or on aggregating sensor data. The main reason having such restrictions is due to maximum lifetime to maintain network activities. The network lifetime is an important design metric in ad hoc networks. Since every node does a router role, it is not possible for other nodes to communicate with each other if some nodes do not work due to energy lack. In this paper, we suggest an experimental ad-hoc on-demand distance vector routing protocol to optimize the communication of energy of the network nodes.The load distribution avoids the choice of exhausted nodes at the route selection phase, thus balances the use of energy among nodes and maximizing the network lifetime. In transmission control phase, there is a balance between the choice of a high transmission power that lead to increase in the range of signal transmission thus reducing the number of hops and lower power levels that reduces the interference on the expense of network connectivity.

The voice traffic is one of the most important real-time objects in WATM(Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode) networks. In this paper, we propose a new MAC(Medium Access'Control) protocol for the efficienttransmission of voice traffic over WATM networks in the multimedia environment and compare the performanceto existing similar protocols. The new protocol separates the reservation slot period for voice and that for data toguarantee some level of QoS(Quality of Service) in voice traffic. This is denoted by a slot assignment functiondepending on the frame size. According to the characteristics of voice traffic which is repeatedly in silent states,the protocol allocates voice reservation request slots dynamically with respect to the number of silent(off state)voice sources and also sends the first block of talkspurt restarted after silent period with a reservation requestslot to reduce the access delay.The simulation results show that the proposed protocol has better performance than Slotted Aloha in bandwidthefficiency, and can serve a certain level of QoS by the given slot assignment function even when the number ofvoice terminals varies dynamically. This means we can observe that the new MAC protocol is much better thanthe NC-PRMA(None Collision-Packet Reservation Multiple Access) protocol.

최근 멀티미디어 인터넷의 확산으로 인해 SIP를 비롯한 음성 및 화상 패킷 전송에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있으며, 이에 대해 인터넷을 통한 음성통신서비스가 전개되고 있다. 또한, 노트북, 핸드폰과 같은 무선 기기에 이러한 음성통신서비스를 제공함으로써 이를 효율적으로 연동하고 제어하기 위한 다양한 표준들이 나타나고 있다. 본 논문에서는 급속하게 발전되고 있는 VoIP 기술 중 세션 제어를 위한 기본 프로토콜 표준인 SIP를 살펴보고, 무선 환경에 이를 적용함으로써 SIP단말이 홈 망을 나간 후 다시 홈 망으로 들어왔을 때의 패킷 손실 및 중단 시간을 이동 단말의 속도에 따라 측정함으로써 무선 환경에서의 음성 트래픽 성능이 어느 정도의 결과를 산출할 수 있는지를 측정한다. 실험 결과 이동 단말이 좀 더 빠르게 움직일 때 더 적은 패킷 손실률이 나왔음을 볼 수 있다.

In many automated systems, such as manufacturing systems and process plants, a fieldbus is a very important component for the exchange of various and sometimes crucial information. Some of the information has a tendency to rapidly lose its value as time elapses after its creation. Such information or data is called real-time data that includes sensor values and control commands. In order to deliver these data in time, the fieldbus network should be tailored to have short delay with respect to the individual time limit of various data. Fine-tuning the network for a given traffic requires the knowledge on the relationship between the protocol parameters such as timer values and the performance measure such as network delay. This paper presents a mathematical performance model to calculate communication delays of the Profibus-FMS network when the timer value and the traffic characteristics are given.

유무선 통합망 환경에서 TCP는 무선망에서의 통신오류 밀 핸드오프를 혼잡으로 인한 패킷 손실로 간주하여 혼잡제어 메카니즘을 동작시키기 때문에 네트워크의 전반적인 효율을 저하시킨다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 방안으로 무선망에서의 TCP 성능을 개선하기 위한 연구가 다양하게 진행되어 오고 있다. 그 중에서 Snoop 프로토콜은 종단간의 의미 구조를 유지하면서 무선망의 패킷 손실을 지역 재전송을 통하여 최소화하는 방식으로 통신오류에는 좋은 성능을 보여주지만, 대량의 무선 데이터 유입시 buffer overflow가 발생할 가능성이 높다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 버퍼관리 기법을 이용하여 buffer overflow 상황을 미연에 방지하여 불필요한 혼잡제어 메카니즘을 호출하는 것을 방지하면서 네트워크의 전반적인 효율을 향상시키는 방안을 제안하였다.
