An IPTV has emerged as a widespread system when a realtime network and broadcasting system have progressed. Interestingly, it can also be organized with IPTV STBs and FC-AL for a high-quality TV content-sharing architecture. It is, however, not easy to configure a large community network with the FC-AL since it only has a 7-bit address space with supporting up to 127 users in the FC-AL single loop. We, therefore, propose an extendible FC-AL-based IPTV network architecture using a FC switch device. In this article, our suggested architecture shows a superb startup delay, such as less than 20msec. In addition, it demonstrates outstanding extendibility, such that the number of accomodable users increases almost linearly according to adding loops. Lastly, it reveals exceptional time-shifting hours, i. e., which supports more than 140 hours with 1000 users.

In the current mobile environment that is indispensable to our everyday lives, various forms of new business models are created including personalized services such as Google's "Google NOW" and Apple's "Siri". These services would not have been possible without technologies on the effective integration of various services and models. The requirements for effective integration of services include, 1) the efficient data sharing among multiple services, 2) the data-driven asynchronous execution of services, and 3) the simple extensible interaction method for the services. In this paper, we propose a mobile service architecture that utilizes the blackboard architecture to satisfy the aforementioned requirements to enable effective integration of various services, sharing and management of data between services, and asynchronous execution of services.

Although 32-bit architectures are becoming the norm for modern microprocessors, 16-bit ones are still employed by many low-end processors, for which small size and low power consumption are of high priority. However, 16-bit architectures have a critical disadvantage for embedded processors that they do not provide enough encoding space to add special instructions coined for certain applications. To overcome this, many existing architectures adopt non-orthogonal, irregular instruction sets to accommodate a variety of unusual addressing modes. In general, these non-orthogonal architectures are regarded compiler-unfriendly as they tend to requires extremely sophisticated compiler techniques for optimal code generation. To address this issue, we proposed a compiler-friendly processor with a new addressing mode, called the dynamic implied addressing mode(DIAM). In this paper, we will demonstrate that the DIAM provides more encoding space for our 16-bit processor so that we are able to support more instructions specially customized for our applications. And we will explain the advanced architecture which has improved performance. In our experiment, the proposed architecture shows 11.6% performance increase on average, as compared to the basic architecture.

International standards for systems safety have been established in various areas of industry. Such standards recommend that safety design activities be carried out early on in the beginning of systems development. Hazard analysis should be done in close interaction with the conceptual design of the system. This paper focuses on how to verify whether the safety goals are met while considering system design issues. The architecture of the underlying system was first modeled using SysML, a systems modeling language, and then hazard analysis was performed based on architectural information to obtain a system failure model. Thereafter, an integrated model was developed by combining the SysML failure model and the architectural model, and then safety designs were added to prevent system failure. Finally, a simulation of the developed model was performed to see if a system functions even when some components are failing.

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) has led to paradigm shifts in the information management area by combining it with SOA and Mashup. System developers now have more chances to access various high-quality functions through API opened on the web. But external resources are controlled by service providers so that it raises the component's uncertainty in system management which is related to external resources. In the cloud environment, components related to external resources causes negative effects on system's maintainability by making them dependant on service providers. This study proposes a way to enhance maintainability by using stable external resources. For this work, we suggest the N+1-tier model in which an external resource tier is added to the N-tier model. After that, we analyze how adding an external resource tier affects the decreasing complexity of maintainability and improving maintainability on web application.

Self-healing is one of the techniques that assure dependability of mission-critical system. Self-healing consists of fault detection and fault recovery and fault detection is important first step that enables fault recovery but it causes overhead. We can detect fault based on model, the detection tasks that notify system's behavior and compare normal behavior model and system's behavior are heavy jobs. In this paper, we propose architecture-based multi-level self-adaptive monitoring method that complements model-based fault detection. The priority of fault detection per component is different in the software architecture. Because the seriousness and the frequency of fault per component are different. If the monitor is adapted to intensive to the component that has high priority of monitoring and loose to the component that has low priority of monitoring, the overhead can be decreased and the efficiency can be maintained. Because the environmental changes of software and the architectural changes bring the changes at the priority of fault detection, the monitor learns the changes of fault frequency and that is adapted to intensive to the component that has high priority of fault detection.

In the latest intelligent computing environments, the self-adaptive software, as new software paradigm, which modifies its own behavior in response to changes in its operating environment is needed. To develop the self-adaptive software, it is necessary to analyze and design the context of software as well as the structure and the behavior of software. We need more efforts for self-adaptive software development than for traditional software development because we need more activities and technologies like context modeling and adaptation to develop the self-adaptive software. In this paper, we present the product line architecture for self-adaptive software and templates of artifacts to improve the efficiency of development through a reuse methodology. The artifacts of the architecture support the systematic reuse activities of core assets by expressing the commonality and variability of product line.

According to the E-Government Readiness Index announced by UN in 2012, the Republic of Korea ranked top again following the last time. However, according to the national competitiveness index announced by IMD, that of the Republic of Korea has still ranked in the world's top 20 for three successive years. In particular, the area of government efficiency took the 25th place in 2012, descending three steps compared to that in 2011, and the area of infrastructure related to informatization has been ranking 20th for three years. This phenomenon can prove that the Republic of Korea's informatization is not producing good outcome, and the investment in informatization is not creating good effects. This phenomenon was analyzed in terms of a life cycle of informatization in this study. As the result, it was revealed that structural problems remain in each step, the linking of information in each step is insufficient, reasonable trace management is absent ,and information management depending on systematic plan is lacking. To solve these problems, improvement measures through architecture consideration were suggested.
