In this paper, we applied a group scheduling algorithm to core nodes in an optical burst switching (OBS) network and measured its performance by simulation. For the case of core nodes with multi-channel input/output ports, performance of the group scheduling has been compared to that of the immediate scheduling. Since the group scheduling has a characteristic of scheduling a group of bursts simultaneously in a time window using information collected from corresponding burst header packets arrived earlier to a core node, simulation results show that the group scheduling outperforms the immediate scheduling in terms of both burst loss probability and channel utilization and the difference gets larger as the load increases. Another node configuration in which wavelength converters are equipped at the output ports has also been considered. In this case, even though both performance metrics of the group scheduling are almost the same as those of the immediate scheduling in the offered load range between 0.1 and 0.9, the group scheduling has lower wavelength conversion rate than the immediate scheduling by at least a factor of seven. This fact leads us to the conclusion that the group scheduling makes it possible to implement more economical OBS core nodes.

인터넷 사용자의 증가와 데이터 전송양이 폭발적으로 증가하면서, 네트워크에도 고속화 및 다기능화가 요구되고 있다. 또한, IPv4의 주소 부족 문제를 해결하기 위해 IPv6의 표준화가 진행 중인데, IPv4와 IPv6는 서로 다른 주소 체계를 사용하므로 상호 연동하기 위한 방안이 제공되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 IPv4-IPv6 간 연동을 위한 메커니즘인 변환 방식과 터널링 방식에 모두 이용되고, 데이터의 고속 처리를 위해 프로토콜 듀얼 스택 중 3계층과 4계층을 하드웨어로 설계하였다. 특히, 3계층은 IP 기반의 고속 네트워크를 위해 듀얼 스택으로 구현함으로써 IPv4, IPv6 패킷을 단일 노드에서 처리할 수 있는 장점을 지닌다. 본 논문에서 제안한 네트워크 프로세서는 Verilog HDL을 이용하여 설계하였으며, 실제 네트워크 상의 패킷 정보를 볼 수 있는 Ethereal 프로그램을 이용하여 구한 테스트 벡터로 시뮬레이션 및 검증을 하였다.

In this paper, we newly propose a performance enhanced CSMA/CD MAC(Medium Access Control) protocol for the Ethernet which changes its operation mode dynamically according to the network status, not fixed it as one of p-persistent mode and non-persistent mode. Dynamic mode change occurs independently on each node, and uses the consecutive success count and the fail count of the frame transmission. The simulation result shows that the dynamic mode change maintains the enhanced network utilization and transmission delay characteristics. Also we show the implementation simplicity of our MAC protocol through its conceptual design using the Ethernet commercial chip as it stands.

TinyOS 기반의 센서 네트워크는 현실 세계에 존재하는 물리적인 아날로그 값을 디지털 값으로 수치화하여 이 값을 통해 여러 산업과 생활 지원 서비스에 활용이 가능하다. 본 무선 멀티 컨트롤러는 제어 노드에 있는 센서 보드의 빛, 가속도, 자기력계 등 센서를 통해 감지되는 물리적인 데이터를 수집하여 디지털 신호로 변환한다. 디지털화 된 신호는 무선 네트워크를 통해 패킷의 형태로 컴퓨터와 연결된 모트로 전송되고, 이는 다시 컴퓨터로 전송된다. 실제 제어의 대상이 되는 사용자 컴퓨터는 전송된 데이터 정보를 통해 인터페이스를 제어하는 방식을 사용한다.

The IEEE 802.11b WLAN supports multiple transmission rates and the rate is chosen in an adaptive manner by an auto rate control algorithm. This auto rate control algorithm deeply affects the total system performance of the IEEE 802.11b WLAN. In this paper, we examine the WLAN performance with regard to the auto rate control algorithm especially the ARF scheme. The experimental results indicate that the ARF scheme works well in the face of signal noise due to node location. However, the ARF scheme severely degrades system performance when multiple nodes contend to obtain the wireless channel and the packet is lost due to signal collision. In addition, TCP prevent the performance degradation due to ARF scheme by retaining number of active nodes. However, some applications, such as transporting multimedia data, adopt the UDP. Therefore, the TCP cannot be an optimal solution for all WLAN applications.

In this paper, interoperability in heterogeneous wireless mesh network, and mesh nodes for providing efficient IP mobility technique offers multi-hop ARP. Heterogeneous wireless mesh networks to MANETs based on a wireless mesh network backbone and non-MANET architecture is based on a client wireless mesh network and the two mobile networks, combined with a hybrid wireless mesh network are separate. In two different hybrid wireless mesh network routing protocols used to connect the two protocols in the protocol conversion at the gateway to parallel processing problems seriously overload occurs. All of the network reliability and stability are factors that reduce. Therefore, for efficient integration with L3 routing protocols, design techniques to build ARP multi-hop go through the experiment to increase the number of mesh nodes, the packet forwarding rate and an increased hop number of the node was to ensure reliability and stability.

The group management system with Wireless Sensor Network and android application is proposed in this paper. The proposed system was composed of personal devices with sensor nodes of WSN, manager device of android platform, and the web server. The sensor node used by each group member send a data packet to the manager device every 2 seconds. The leader device displays and transmits entire information to the web server. The web server represents these information through web page. Therefore, guardians can assure their group member's safety and security on the web page. The RSSI value of each sensor node converted by computed log-normal path loss model into distance value and displays on the manager device and the web page.

This paper proposed that an MPLS-based VPN using next-generation If switches and appropriate set of traffic engineering algorithms is the best way to implement QoS-capable IP VPNs. While ATM-based solution would not rely scalable the number of connections becomes too large, MPLS-based VPNs’ efficiency could be confirmed network delay time through performance evaluation. And we evaluated the performance about the If VPN based on proposed MPLS, at the result of evaluation. We figured out that delay increased more slowly in case of VPN based on MPLS comparing with the VPN based on ATM which has rapid delay increasement. Therefore we confirm that the VPN based on MPLS has high speed of packet processing and high degree of network efficiency through the performance evaluation.

ZigBee is one of wireless communication standards and many applications based on Zigbee have been developing for commercial applications. Most of those applications require links to Internet like Zigbee service gateways. However, ZigBee service gateway should provides following functions to be effectively utilized itself: translation of messages between diverse ZigBee application profiles and message formats used in Internet, addition/removal of a new ZigBee service without stopping existing services according to addition/removal of a Zigbee node, and no transmission of unwanted packets to ZigBee network. Therefore, this paper proposes a new type of ZigBee Service Gateway, called ZiGate to provide the functions. The proposed ZiGate is capable of re-configurating message translation modules required in case of addition/removal of nodes and doesn't transmit unnecessary packets to the ZigBee networks by synchronizing itself with ZigBee network. And ZiGate provides translation modules between messages defined in Zigbee application profiles and both text-based and binary-based messages used in Internet. In this paper we implements the ZiGate and evaluates it on the test bed. This evaluations show that the proposed ZiGate works efficiently.

As the research on home network technologies, sensor network technologies, and ubiquitous network technologies makes rapid progresses, wireless ad-hoc network have attracted a lot of attention. A wireless ad-hoc network is a temporary network formed by a collection of wireless mobile nodes without the aid of my existing network infrastructure or centralized administration, and it is suitable for ubiquitous computing environments. In this paper, we suggest an interconnection scheme between the wireless ad-hoc network environment based on multiple path source routing protocol and a Mobile-IP based network environment. This scheme reduces the overhead of route re-establishment and re-registration by maintaining multiple paths between the mobile host in wireless ad-hoc network and the base station in mobile-IP network. Also it puts the base station in charge of function that performs translation between wireless ad-hoc network packets and Mobile-IP packets, reducing the load of mobile hosts. In this paper, our simulations show that our scheme outperforms existing interconnecting schemes with regards to throughput and end-to-end delay Also we show that our scheme outperforms multi-paths approach using disjoint routes with regards to routing overhead.
