The more mobile devices consuming web services, the more QoS-aware selection of mobile web services, we need. A QoS(Quality of Service) contract is an agreement between the web service provider and the mobile user that specifies the level of the service quality. Web services users can be assured of the level of the service quality specified by the QoS contract. We propose a broker-based framework for QoS-aware mobile web services selection in this work. Under this architecture, the mobile users can request the web services through the service broker on the wireless networks. The service broker utilizes agents to monitor the web services quality and manages the service quality by notifying the service provider and mobile user of the service contract violation. Reliability, response time, and cost were the metrics used for QoS monitoring. Futhermore mobile users can select a web service best suited for his/her needs through the service broker.

기존의 인터넷 기반 데이터 서비스는 'Best-effort' 정책으로 멀티미디어 서비스를 위한 트래픽 제어(traffic control) 기능을 제공하지 못한다. 그러므로 실시간 데이터 전송을 기반으로 제공되는 VOD(Video-on-Demand) 서비스는 사용자가 원하는 QoS(Quality of Service)를 제공할 수 없다. 따라서 인터넷 상에서 트래픽 제어 기능을 갖춘 중개자를 두어 VOD 서비스를 제공하는 방법에 대해 제안한다. 중개자의 주요 기능은 비디오 서버와 클라이언트 사이에 비디오 데이터의 버퍼링 기능을 이용하여 실시간 트래픽 제어를 수행한다. 이런 기능을 가진 중개자를 에이전트라 부르고, 에이전트에 대한 설계 및 구현에 대해 기술한다.

RMO(Region Monitor Object)는 결함전파나 객체군에 주어진 요구사항의 위반에 의해 발생하는 오류를 처리하는 실시간객체로써 여러 실시간객체의 상태를 감시 및 분석하여 오류를 감지하고, 증상을 진단한 후 알맞은 복구 및 재구성을 실행하다, 이를 위하여 RMO는 응용 실시간객체를 감시할 수 있는 권한을 갖는다. RMO의 권한을 지원해주는 구조는 결함허용 중개자를 이용한다. 결함허용 중개자(FTB 또는 Fault Tolerance Broker)는 RMO가 응용 실시간객체를 감시할 때에 응용의 설계와 응용의 위치에 투명하게 수행될 수 있게 중개자 역할을 한다. 제안하는 감시 구조에는 결함허용 중개자가 응용 실사간객체마다 스터브로 붙는 스터브 방식과 각 노드의 커널에 모듈로 존재하는 커널 모듈 방식이 있다. 본 논문은 스터브 방식에서 RMO가 응용 실시간객체를 감시하는 구조를 제시하고 구현한다. 결함허용 중개자 스터브는 응용 실시간객체와 같은 주소 공간에 존재하면서 응용 실시간객체에서 발생하는 메세지를 가로채고 소속자료에 접근한다. RMO는 결함허용 중개자 스터브가 제공하는 인터페이스를 통해서 응용 실시간객체에 대한 감시 정보를 얻는다. 제안한 감시 구조는 실시간객체 모델인 dRTO(dependable RTO) 모델에 기반하여 설계하였고 실시간 커널인 dKernel 상에서 구현 및 실험하였으나 다른 모델이나 커널에도 적용될 수 있다.

A service broker supporting customers plays an important role in internet marketplaces. Recently. several intelligent brothers have been developed for electronic commerce, outline shopping mall, and electronic marketplaces. While these systems provide interesting shopping experiences, they fall short in fully exploiting the capabilities, such as the service integration and automatic execution required by internet market places. In this respect, we propose a workflow-based service broker system. Dependent services in our approach are modeled as workflow processes, which are automatical1y processed by a workflow engine. In the proposed system all data exchanges are realized through XML providing platform independent, extensible, open. and interoperable architecture.

분산 시스템에서 사용자가 시스템에 로그인 상태에서 자신의 시스템에 존재하지 않는 자원을 이용하기 위한 방안으로 권한위임이 필수적이다. 이러한 권한위임은 다양하게 요구되는 정보보호 응용 서비스의 가용성을 증대시킨다. 본 논문에서는 권한위임을 처리하기 위해서 권한위임 인증서를 생성하여 안전하게 인증서를 중개자에게 전달해야한다. 개시자와 중개자 최종 목적지까지 다단계 권한위임이 발생하는 연결고리에서 PKI 기반 X.509의 공개키를 이용한 효율적이고 추적 및 검증이 가능한 프로토콜을 제안한다.

UDDI server is the web services registry enabling users to register and search for web services. However, the existing UDDI servers do not provide any information about web services qualify. We designed and developed a UDDI broker system which actively monitors and analyses the qualify of web services. The analysis results are presented to users in statistical figures and graphs. With this information a user can select a web service that meets his/her needs. Availability, performance, and stability were the metrics used for the service qualify measurement and analysis.

본 논문에서는 개방형 플랫폼 기반의 영상콘텐츠 제작 서비스를 위한 비즈니스 모델을 제안한다. 이는 중개형 플랫폼 구축 전략 관점에서 성격이 다른 두 고객층인 자신의 영상 자료로 영상콘텐츠를 제작하고 싶어 하는 수요자와 제작한 영상 콘텐츠 템플릿을 제공하는 공급자를 대상으로 온라인 상에서 양면시장 설립에 부합되며, 또한 교차(간접) 네트워크의 효과를 기대할 수 있다. 그리고 협업과 공유 및 맞춤 서비스를 제공함으로써 두 고객층에 상호 이익을 만족시킬 수 있는 개방형 플랫폼 기반의 비즈니스 서비스 모델이라고 할 수 있다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 Web 기반의 중개형 플랫폼 서비스 운영 및 구축을 위한 시스템 구성 등을 제안한다.

Interdisciplinary convergence research is widely seen as a collaborative research between different disciplines, which is often driven by common agenda or problems in pursuit of a particular common objective. Thus, the purpose of interdisciplinary cooperation in convergence research is to bring each discipline's unique perspective together with the academic expertise of researchers in order to share common problems that cannot be solved effectively without research partnership. We present empirical evidence on how interdisciplinary research relationships are formed to facilitate research networking in convergence relations. In particular, we used network analysis to investigate how interdisciplinary linkages and convergence research networks has formed over time. We found that the convergence research networks were implemented by the interdisciplinary convergence research support program as intended. We did find that research field with high indegree and outdegree in a network played critical roles on the dynamics and degree of interdisciplinarity. Finally, we could find evidence that the role of liaison brokers triggered relational dynamics in interdisciplinary research collaboration.

In this paper, we investigate industrial product intermediary's transformation strategy by exploiting advantages afforded by web based information technologies. Our motivation for this research stems from exploring intermediary's responding strategy to cope with supplier's threatening to disintermediation. From transaction cost perspective, internet can induce both the vertical quasi-integration (electronic hierarchy) and outsourcing (electronic market). Our rationale on directing one of these bi-directional movements is specified on intermediary's value adding on the supply chain. As such, we investigated supply chain performance, IT effects on customer's requirement of channel functions, and channel power structure. Propositions to suggest contingent e-transforming strategic alternatives are logically derived from dyadic nature of supply chain characteristics such as efficiency versus customer services, and supplier dominant versus easy replaceability of suppliers. The contingent e-transformation framework developed from intermediary's perspective is reviewed through longitudinal industry case analysis. Implications from the industry case analysis give us insights for the effectiveness of the framework to combine supply chain characteristics with intermediary's e-transformation.

Effective acquisition technology is an important factor determining the competitiveness of companies(Roxas et al., 2011). Since the importance of technology transfer has been increased, there has been a growing interest in company, government, university and research institutes (Bozeman et al., 2015). Despite the national efforts for activating technology transfer, a lot of technology is still in universities and R&D center(Ockwell et al., 2009). The barriers of technology transfer are a main reason to inhibit the technology transfer. In order to be lower technology transfer barriers, it is necessary to derive the technology transfer broker based on social network analysis. However, most studies related to technology transfer broker had been focused on empirical study(Bozeman et al., 2015). Therefore, it is needed to suggest the method to grasp the opportunity that can lead to technology innovation based on analyzing and visualizing the network of technology transfer. The method in this study provides the company with the connectable path, technology transfer broker and strategy to classify the technology actor within the network. Finally, the method is applied to Global MVP for verifying the feasibility of method.
