Multi-client online games usually employ multi-serve architectures. For group play, if the user response time deviation between the clients in a group is large, the fairness and attractions of the game will be degraded. In this paper, given new clients, we propose a method for assigning the clients to servers to minimize the deviation of client-server distance which plays a major role in the user response time. This method also supports client matching for group play and server load balancing. We formulate the client-server assignment problem as an IP one, and present a GA(Genetic Algorithm)-based algorithm to solve it. We experimented our method under various settings and analyzed its features. To our survey, little research has been previously performed on client-server assignment under consideration of client matching, distance deviation minimization and server load balancing.

Since the power consumption of data centers is large and computer serves take a large portion of it, there have been much research on the power saving of servers in various ways recently. Among the units of severs CPU is one of major power consuming units. In this paper, a method of client-server assignment for minimizing the CPU power consumption of servers in a game server cluster is proposed. We model the client-server assignment problem as an optimization problem, and find a solution to the problem using a simulated annealing-based technique. One of major features of our method is to select a proper operating frequency according to the amount of load on a server. The selection of a lower frequency in case of low load will result in reducing power consumption. To our survey, little research on client-server assignment in consideration of power consumption has been carried out.

Recently, interest in game streaming is high in cloud-based gaming. In game streaming, remote game servers perform graphics rendering and stream the resulting scene images to clients' device on the Internet. We model the client-server allocation (CSA) problem for balancing the GPU load between servers in a game streaming environment as an optimization problem, and propose a simulated annealing-based method. The features of our method are that the method takes into account the constraints on network delay and has the ability to automatically adjust the frame rate of game sessions if necessary.

웹(WWW)기술은 기존 클라이언트 서버환경의 정보 시스템을 그대로 활용하면서 TCP/IP프로토콜을 이용하여 인터넷기반의 분산시스템 환경을 제공한다. 웹 어플리케이션을 개발할 경우 기존의 어플리케이션 개발방법과 더불어 하이터미디어 형식으로 개발되어 지기 때문에 하이퍼어플리케이션 개발방법론의 적용이 요구되어진다. 그러나 단지 정보획득의 목적으로 사용되던 기존에 제안된 하이퍼미디어 개발방법론들을 웹 어플리케이션 개발에 그대로 적용하기는 미흡하다. 따라서 본문에서는 웹 어플리케이션 개발 과정중 논리적인 업무 프로세싱작업을 지원하면서 주요작업이 되는 하이퍼미디어 사용자 인터페이스 설계단계를 확장 지원하는 정보 구조 모델 방법론과 개발 프로세싱 절차를 제안한다.

This paper deals with a case study on the development of computerized scheduling system for core products. We propose a heuristic algorithm which is based on the sequencing rules and the allocation rules to satisfy the due date for each product, and develop a scheduling system for the manufacturer of core products. The system operates under a client/server circumstance. The important information constitutes a database, and it can be retrieved whenever it is needed. The benefits of the scheduling system are the exclusion of hand operations of data, the reduction of execution time for production planning and the reduction of average inventories.

A video adaptation system translates the source video stream into appropriate video stream while satisfying the network and client constraints and maximizing the video quality as much as possible. This paper proposes a semi-dynamic video adaptation scheme, in which several intermediate video streams and the information for the measuring of video quality are generated statically. The intermediate video streams are generated by reducing the resolution of the video stream by a power of two several times, and they are stored as the intermediate video streams on the video server. The statically generated information for the input video stream consists of the degrees of smoothness for each frame rate and the degree of frame definition for each pixel bit rate. It helps to dynamically generate the target video stream according to the client's QoS at run-time as quickly as possible. Experimental result shows that the proposed adaptation scheme can generate the target video stream about thirty times faster while keeping the quality degradation as less than 2% comparing to the target video stream that is totally dynamically generated, although the extra storages for the intermediate video streams are required.

When digital libraries are developed by the traditional client/sever system using a single agent on the distributed environment, several problems occur. First, as the search method is one dimensional, the search results have little relationship to each other. Second, the results do not reflect the user's preference. Third, whenever a client connects to the server, users have to receive the certification. Therefore, the retrieval of documents is less efficient causing dissatisfaction with the system. I propose a new platform of mobile multiagents for a personal digital library to overcome these problems. To develop this new platform I combine the existing DECAF multiagents platform with the Voyager mobile ORB and propose a new negotiation algorithm and scheduling algorithm. Although there has been some research for a personal digital library, I believe there have been few studies on their integration and systemization. For searches of related information, the proposed platform could increase the relationship of search results by subdividing the related documents, which are classified by a supervised neural network. For the user's preference, as some modular clients are applied to a neural network, the search results are optimized. By combining a mobile and multiagents platform a new mobile, multiagents platform is developed in order to decrease a network burden. Furthermore, a new negotiation algorithm and a scheduling algorithm are activated for the effectiveness of PDS. The results of the simulation demonstrate that as the number of servers and agents are increased, the search time for PDS decreases while the degree of the user's satisfaction is four times greater than with the C/S model.

안드로이드 시장이 급성장함에 따라 안드로이드 기반 어플리케이션에 대한 수요가 많아지고 있다. 그로 인해 3D 그래픽적 기능을 요구하는 어플리케이션에 대한 요구도 늘어났다. 그러나 안드로이드 단말기에서는 3D 처리능력이 데스크 탑과 비교하여 성능과 서비스에 한계가 있다. 그렇기 때문에 VNC(Virtual Network Computing)를 사용하여 고성능의 그래픽을 요구하는 프로그램을 실행할 수 있게 된다. VNC 란 클라이언트에서 데스크 탑으로 접속하여 원격으로 제어하고 그 결과를 그래픽으로 확인하는 프로그램이다. 그러나 기존의 Android VNC 는 해상도가 낮고, 이미지 전송 속도가 느리기 때문에 3D 렌더링 이미지 처리가 불가능했다. 또한 Android VNC 는 인터페이스가 불편하여 입력 오류가 많아 사용이 불편했다는 단점 등이 지적되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 이를 개선하기 위한 Android Turbo VNC 를 제안한다. Android Turbo VNC는 libjpeg-turbo 코덱을 적용하여 3D 이미지 부분에서 기존의 Android VNC 에 비하여 약 80~120%의 이미지 개선과 이미지 압축률을 4 배정도 높여 CAD 와 같은 고성능의 그래픽을 요구하는 프로그램의 사용을 가능하게 한다. 그리고 Android Turbo VNC 에서는 기존 Android VNC 의 불편한 UI 를 개선하였다. 클라우드 서버에서는 CAD, Document, Game, Video, General 총 5 가지의 프로그램을 서비스하여 그에 맞는 테마 별 UI 를 제공한다. libjpeg-turbo 코덱의 적용을 통해 Android-Turbo VNC 는 수십 장의 설계 도면을 굳이 들고 다니지 않더라도 하나의 테블릿 PC 안에서 보는 것이 가능하게 된다. 테마별 UI 중 CAD 테마는 3D CAD 를 사용하는 산업현장에서 적극적으로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
