Performance testing for ATM network deals with evaluation of maximal throughput of network by measuring and analyzing of various performance parameters. However, because of the absence of the methodology and framework for performance testing, the results of performance measurements for same implementation under test were much relied on tester. In this paper, the concept of ATM performance testing is described in both cell and frame level and a framework of ATM performance testing is suggested by describing of testing environment for performance measurement and requirements of performance evaluation. For this, we define performance measuring method and parameters for each case.

This paper propose a new frame level rate control algorithm for improving video quality and decreasing quality variation of an entire video sequence in a very low bit rate environment. In the proposed scheme, the allocated bits to a GOP are distributed to each frame properly according to the frame characteristics as well as the buffer status and the channel bandwidth. The H.264 standard uses various coding modes and optimization methods to improve the compression performance, which makes it difficult to control the generated traffic accurately. In this paper, proper prediction models for low bit rate environments are lust proposed, and a target distortion is determined using the models. According to the target distortion, the bit budget is allocated to each frame. It is shown by experimental results that the new algorithm can generate the PSNR performance better than that of the existing rate control algorithm.

According to increased multimedia data(i.e., MPEG video stream) in mobile application, protecting data becomes an important problem in the multimedia data delivery. SECMPEG is a selective encryption approach for protecting multimedia data. However, the computational overhead of SECMPEG's security level 3 is quite large because it encrypts the whole I-frames whose size is relatively larger than P/B-frames. Therefore, we need to analyze the characteristics of MPEG2 standard and derive an effective encryption of the I-frames. In this paper, we propose a slice-level, selective encryption approach by using the error-propagation characteristics of I-frames by a receiver. Our experimental results show that the proposed approach can reduce the execution time of SECMPEG's security level 3 by a factor of 30 without degradation of the security.

이 논문은 MPEG 비디오 스트림에서 급격하거나 점진적인 장면전환을 검출하는 효과적인 방법을 제안하고 있다. 이 방법에서는 MPEG 압축 영역에서 DC계수를 통해 DC 영상을 복원한 다음 이전 영상과의 그레이레벨 값과의 차이를 구하여 평균값을 가지고 있고 현재 프레임의 그레이 레벨값과 비교하여 임계값이상의 차이가 나면 장면전환이 이루어졌다는 것을 검출하는 알고리즘이다. 을 이용하여 임계값을 구하여 실시간으로 적용함으로 높은 적중률을 가질 수 있게 된다. DC계수는 MPEG에서 가장 많은 정보를 포함하고 있으므로 속도 상승을 위해 AC계수의 값을 계산하지 않는다. 실험결과 고정 임계값을 적용한 다른 방법보다 높은 적중률을 나타났다.

This paper proposes a new basic unit level rate control algorithm which generates the output bits corresponding to the target bits. The H.264 standard uses various coding modes and optimization methods to improve the compression performance, which makes it difficult to control the generated traffic accurately. In the proposed scheme, the allocated bits to a frame are distributed to all basic units properly to encode each basic unit according to the bit budget. After encoding the frame, the encoding parameters are adjusted according to the difference between the target and the resulting values. It is shown by experimental results that the new algorithm can generate output bit rates accurately corresponding to the target bit rates with the PSNR performance better than that of the existing rate control algorithm.

오늘날 모든 물체에 컴퓨터가 내장되어 언제 어디서나 사용자에게 적절한 서비스를 제공하는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 개념이 대두되고 있다. 그래서 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경은 사용자 중심의 환경이나 주변 상황으로부터 획득한 컨텍스트를 분석하기 위해서 상황 인식(Context-awareness) 시스템이 필요하다. 이 시스템은 센서로부터 취득한 컨텍스트, 즉 하위 레벨의 컨텍스트로 부터 통합, 추론, 그리고 학습을 통해서 상위 레벨의 컨텍스트를 생성해야 한다. 그러나 기존의 상황 인식 시스템은 다양한 타입의 처리할 수 없고 사용자의 선호도나 흥미도를 고려하지 않은 제한점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 미들웨어를 위한 다양한 센서들로부터 다양한 타입의 컨텍스트를 처리할 수 있는 생성할 수 있는 프레임워크를 제안한다. 이 프레임워크는 변화하는 주변 환경에 따라 사용자에게 다양한 서비스를 제공할 수 있도록 센서된, 통합된, 추론된, 그리고 학습된 컨텍스트를 생성할 수 있도록 설계하였다.

Emerging technologies, such as multimedia and mobile computing, require that middleware platforms can support high adaptability in order to provide more flexible services in heterogeneous environments. To support high quality of service in distributed wired/wireless environments, it will be necessary for applications and middleware to be aware of changes in users requirements as well as environmental conditions, also to be able to adapt their behaviour as such changes. According to the needs of adaptability supporting in middleware, we structure a component-based, mobile agents framework in base level and meta level by using reflection. We propose concepts of meta agents and meta-service agents that are able to reflect changes made by mobile agents to the system. At the meta level of our framework, meta agents monitor execution of mobile agents and it is possible to provide dynamic adaptation of users requirements, deployment of application services and service customization with meta agents and meta-service agents.

DSC-HDTV image compression algorithm removes spatial, temporal, and amplitude redundancies of an image by using transform coding, motion-compensated predictive coding, and adaptive quantization, respectively. In this paper, leak processing method which is used to recover image quality quickly from scene change and transmission error and adaptive quantization using perceptual weighting factor obtained by HVS are proposed. Perceptual weighting factor is calculated by contrast sensitivity, spatio-temporal masking and frequency sensitivity. Adaptive quantization uses the perceptual weighting factor and global distortion level from buffer history state. Redundant bits according to adaptation of HVS are used for the next image coding. In the case of scene change, DFD using motion compensated predictive coding has high value, large bit rate and unstabilized buffer states since reconstructed image has large quantization noise. Thus, leak factor is set to 0 for scene change frame and leak factor to 15/16 for next frame, and global distortion level is calculated by using standard deviation. Experimental results show that image quality of the proposed method is recovered after several frames and then buffer status is stabilized.

지그비에서는 Trust Center 역할을 정의하고 이를 통한 키 분배를 통해 안전한 통신을 한다. 그러나 현재 표준에서 사용하는 TCA 는 모든 트래픽이 Trust Center 로 집중됨으로써 부하 및 지연이 발생된다. 또한 표준에서 사용하는 보안 프로토콜은 서비스의 중요도와 상관없이 암 복호화를 수행한다. 본 논문에서는 지그비 네트워크에서 효율적인 TCA 및 MAC 프레임 구조 설계하였다. 제안하는 TCA 는 Trust Center 간의 키 분배를 통해 이전의 키 정보를 재사용한다. 또한 MAC 프레임에 추후 적용 가능할 서비스들을 위해 차등적 보안 레벨을 적용하여 에너지 효율성을 높이고, 통신 지연시간을 줄였다.
