This paper investigate the problems of standard container port handling capacity in establishing national port development plan in Korea. Considering container port developing, it's not easy to adopt container port service quality parameters such as lay time constraint of very large container ships by using the standard guideline of container port handling capacity. A simple methodology that connects vessel waiting to service time(w/s) and berth occupancy to costs has been used to evaluate the performance of a container terminal. But the total handling capacity have to be calculated by the performance of the handling system and number of equipments and layout of terminal by using computer simulation that represents of reality events needs to be performed by probabilistic techniques. A simulation model of estimation of container terminal capacity is introduced in order to establish a hub terminal for very large container ships that focus the port's quality of service and also suggest as tool for policy maker to justify a required port investment.

The number of industry wireless networks based on IEEE 802.11 WLAN technology deployed in large outdoor work sites, such as freight container terminal, is increasing these days. Wider service coverage, frequent movements of stations and high requirement on service reliability are main characteristics of these networks compared to the conventional IEEE 802.11 networks used in home, office and school. While the importance of these networks Bets higher, we can hardly find previous studies including concrete analysis on these networks based on actual experiments. We carried out several field experiments at a freight container terminal to analyze its IEEE 802.11 network and found out some problematic situations, such as over 50% retransmission rates and frequent disruption of communication link while a station is moving. We explain why these problematic situations happen and suggest some solutions, such as application of mesh technology, smart handoff based on location and movement pattern and adjustment of signal strength and channel allocation. Methods and tools used in the experiments are also detailed in the paper which may be helpful for similar future studies.

This study analyzes the optimal service levels of exclusive container terminals in terms of the optimal berth occupancy rate and the ships' waiting ratios, based on the number of berths. We develop a simulation model using berth throughput data from pier P, Busan New Port, a representative port in Korea, and apply the simulation results to different numbers of berths. In addition to the above results, we analyze the financial data and costs of delayed ships and delayed cargoes for the past three years from the viewpoints of the terminal operation company (TOC), shipping companies, and shippers to identify the optimal service level for berth occupancy rates that generate the highest net profit. The results show that the optimal levels in the container terminal are a 63.4% berth occupancy rate and 10.6% ship waiting ratio in berth 4,66.0% and 9.6% in berth 5, and 69.0% and 8.5% in berth 6. However, the results of the 2013 study by the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries showed significantly different optimal service levels: a 57.1% berth occupancy rate and 7.4% ship waiting ratio in berth 4; 63.4% and 6.6% in berth 5; and 66.6% and 5.6% in berth 6. This suggests that optimal service level could change depending on when the analysis is performed. In other words, factors affecting the optimal service levels include exchange rates, revenue, cost per TEU, inventory cost per TEU, and the oil price. Thus, optimal service levels can never be fixed. Therefore, the optimal service levels for container terminals need to be able to change relatively quickly, depending on factors such as fluctuations in the economy, the oil price, and exchange rates.

The Satellite Mobile Communication System holds several advantages, such as wide coverage that guarantees the communication in a huge area. It is suitable in the ocean and forest and especially in emergency situation. However, the licensed frequency is not always occupied within all coverage and all the time. The actual utilization rate is relatively low compared to other wireless communications such as cellular systems. There are a large amount of white spaces in its coverage. Therefore, it is necessary to consider introducing additional services such as data communication, in order to increase the spectrum utilization as well as the revenue of the Satellite service provider. In this paper, we first analyze the possibility to implement new services in the licensed band of satellite mobile phone by its provider. Then we address the most significant issue for the implementation of current service, which is how to accurately detect the satellite mobile terminals. Finally, we suggest two new possible solutions namely, eigenvalue detection based methods to find out the existence of transmitted signal from the satellite mobile terminals.

In order to increase the promotion of multimedia processing techniques in MPEG standard, MPEG Multimedia Middleware (M3W) which supports middleware interface for multimedia processing is set up. In this paper, multimedia protection and management service interfaces based on MPEG Multimedia Middleware (M3W) are introduced. The service interfaces are based on component models of M3W and support normative IPMP messages. The proposed interfaces are composed of Tool interfaces and Trust management interfaces: Tool interfaces provide the functionality supporting terminal and tool based on the governed decoder model and Trust management interfaces provide the supporting functionality such as license managing and authentication required in DRM devices. As an application of the proposed interfaces, a JAVA based player simulator is shown. The proposed interfaces can be easily implemented under various device and application environments as an ISO/IEC 23004-2 standard middleware platform.

인터넷이 급속도로 발전해 감에 따라 그 활용 분야가 확장되고 보편화되어 가고 있다. 그 중 최근 대두되고 있는 분야가 바로 통신 서비스 분야이다. 이를 위해 등장한 것이 VoIP인데 IP 위로 음성 데이터를 전송하는 것을 목적으로 한다. VoIP를 지원하기 위한 프로토콜로는 크게 ITU-T에서 제안한 H.323과 IETF에서 제안한 SIP를 들 수 있다. 인터넷을 이용한 통신 서비스를 위해서는 음성 데이터를 패킷 망에서 전송하는 기능 외에 터미널의 이동성을 지원하고, QoS를 보장할 수 있어야 한다. 이러한 측면에서 볼 때, 상기한 두 프로토콜은 음성 데이터를 패킷 망에서 전송하기 위한 다양한 기능과 서비스를 제공하고 있는 반면 호스트의 이동성 및 QoS 보장을 위한 방안에 있어서는 미비한 것이 현재 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점의 해결을 위해, Mobile IP 위에서 동작하도록 확장된 자원 예약 프로토콜을 기반으로 하여 VoIP를 구현함으로써 호스트의 이동성과 QoS를 보장하도록 하는 방안에 대해 제안하고자 한다.
