Because of a security problem and not enough IPv4 address space, the home network has been made up of private network, and it has been separated from Internet. This fact prevents people in Internet from controlling and monitoring home appliances. So, this paper designs and Implements the UPnP Proxy System which offers functions for users to control and monitor home appliances. When users are in the outside of the home network, they do not know which devices were connected in the home network because the advertisement messages of UPnP devices would not be delivered to the outside of the home network. Also, users cannot access devices directly, and their control messages are not delivered into the home network. So, this paper designs and implements the UPnP Proxy System to solve these problems. The merit of the system is that users can control and monitor home appliances in realtime using presentation web documents with the HTTP push technology.

Since different kinds of home network technologies coexist, seamless connections between different kinds of network protocols are essential for home computing environments. Several kinds of home network middleware have been developed and OSGi(Open Service Gateway Initiative) was initiated mainly for interoperability support with service distribution between various middleware environments. Framework, OSGi service platform, has weaknesses of passive service bundle management, user management and device management. Therefore, this paper resolves passive management parts which are critical weaknesses of OSGi Specification Version 3 and proposes SBM (Service Bundle Manager) to effiently manage various service bundles. Additionally, we verify practical effects of SBM through experiments.

TCP typically offers reasonable end-to-end performance to users regardless of the bandwidth and error characteristics of particular network technology, The robustness of TCP has contributed to its success in the internet environment. The role of communications is already well established in the office environment. With the advent of cheap, affordable broadband communications and the increasing complexity of consumer goods, it seems natural to extend the network into homes. In-home networking means a high-speed communication among the digital appliances within a home. Introduction of application over high-speed home network using TCP/IP protocol is increasing. The integrated environment of internet and home network is demanding as well. We have validated TCP model over high speed home network environment, investigated the throughput behavior of TCP over IEEE 1399 home networks, and evaluated a potential solution for high performance of TCP over IEEE 139t home networks. The simulation model has produced several interesting results in the performance of TCP over IEEE 1394 home network.

네트워크 단위로 이동성을 제공하는 네트워크 이동성(NEtwork Mobility, NEMO)프로토콜에서 방문 네트워크(Visited Network)는 이동네트워크의 홈 네트워크(Home Network)를 통해 이동 네트워크(Mobile Network)를 인증한다. 안전한 인증이 이루어지기 위해서 홈 네트워크의 인증 서버와 이동 네트워크간의 사용할 키가 필요하게 된다. 그러나 두 엔터티간 키 협정을 위해 메시지를 주고받는 것은 서비스 에러나 공격에 취약하고 대역폭이나 밧데리 등이 제한적인 무선 환경에서는 적절하지 않다. 많은 키 결정 알고리즘에서 사용되는 공개 키 기반 알고리즘은 이런 무선 환경에 적절하지 않다. 또한 비밀키 선분배 방식은 인증 서버가 자신이 인증해야할 모든 노드와의 키 쌍을 가지고 있어야 한다는 정에서 확장성 문제를 지닌다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해, 본 논문에서는 회귀분석을 이용하여 쉽게 노드가 가지고 있는 키를 계산하고, 비밀키 인증서를 이용하여 간편하고 빠르게 인증을 수행할 수 있는 새로운 키 선분배 및 인증 메커니즘을 제안한다.

Recently, we should control various devices such as TV, audio, DVD player, video player, and set-top box simultaneously to manipulate home theater system. To execute the function the user want in this situation, user should know functions and positions of the buttons in several remote controllers. Normally, people feel difficult due to these realistic problems. Besides, the number of the devices that we can control shall increase, and people will confuse more if the ubiquitous home environment is realized. Therefore, user adaptive interface that provides the summarized functions is required. Moreover there can be a lot of mobile and stationary controller devices in ubiquitous computing environment, so user interface should be adaptive in selecting the functions that user wants and in adjusting the features of UI to fit in specific controller. To implement the user and controller adaptive interface, we modeled the ubiquitous home environment and used modeled context and device information. We have used Bayesian network to get the degree of necessity in each situation. Behavior selection network uses predicted user situation and the degree of necessity, and it selects necessary functions in current situation. Selected functions are used to construct adaptive interface for each controller using presentation template. For experiments, we have implemented ubiquitous home environment and generated controller usage log in this environment. We have confirmed the BN predicted user requirements effectively as evaluating the inferred results of controller necessity based on generated scenario. Finally, comparing the adaptive home UI with the fixed one to 14 subjects, we confirmed that the generated adaptive UI was more useful for general tasks than fixed UI.

Advances in technologies of networking, chip integration, and embedded system have enabled sensor networks applicable to a wide range of areas. Sharing some common characteristics, sensor networks are thus diversified in features depending on their applications. An intelligent and digital home can be one area to establish a particular feature of sensor network. This paper proposes a composite sensor and control network, and discusses its applying to the next generation intelligent and digital home. Development results of the network and a test-bed as a virtual test environment are also presented. The proposed network can not only be efficiently applying to achieve new home intelligences but also provide a sound solution to maintenance and operations of home network or devices.

In this paper, we propose and analyze a novel synchronization scheme for ubiquitous home network system. In ubiquitous home network system, synchronization method is very important because many consumer electronic devices send the data simultaneously to each other through infrastructure such as access point. We employ digital watermarking sequence to improve synchronization performance without system overhead. The performance of proposed scheme is analyzed in terms of correlation performance. The results of the paper can be applied to design of various applications for ubiquitous home network systems.

FTTH상용화, IEEE802.11n 무선랜 기술의 상용화 등과 같은 초고속 전송기술의 발전에 따라 홈네트워킹 환경 또한 급격하게 변화하고 있다. 100Mbps를 초과하는 많은 홈네트워킹 기술들의 개발로 인해 홈게이트웨이에 보다 넓은 대역의 LAN 인터페이스를 요구하게 되었고, xDSL이나 케이블모뎀 기반의 가입자망과의 대역폭 차이는 고성능의 QoS 기능을 요구하게 되었다. 이러한 통신환경을 토대로 홈게이트웨이의 기능에 대한 요구사항을 분석하고 홈게이트웨이용 스위칭 칩의 개발규격을 도출하였다. 그리고 새로운 네트워크 기반의 비즈니스 모델을 개발하고자 하는 통신사업자의 요구사항과 QoS나 IPv6등의 다양한 네트워크 요구사항을 등을 유연하게 수용할 수 있으며, 칩의 기능과 성능을 수정하 또는 추가할 수 있는 네트워크 프로세서 기반의 기가빗 스위치 칩을 개발하였다. 개발 칩은 패킷 프로세서로 Layer 4까지 의 패킷헤드를 처리하고, 2기가빗이더넷 + 6패스트이더넷 포트를 갖도록 설계하였으며, FPGA를 이용하여 스위칭 칩의 기본적인 전송기능과 성능, Flow별 패킷 분류 및 패킷 필터링, 스케쥴링 기능 등의 시험을 통하여 설계한 칩의 기능과 성능을 확인하였다.

Generally home networks are based on wired network and wireless network. This makes customers be capable of using electric home appliances and full-duplex multimedia services and controlling the machines without any restrictions of place or time. Now that the scope of home security is being extended, the home networks can be formed with not only personal computer but also home automation, electric home appliances, and etc. But this causes many of attacks of invasion and damages. Therefore in this paper we suggest the SSIP(Secure Session Initiate protocol) model for solving those problems. The SSIP model is able to provide an efficient authentication and reduce the time of session re-establishment and set-up by adding ability of SIP authentication to Cluster-to-Cluster environment performed on home gateway.

인터넷 기반의 산업들이 발전하고, 이를 사용하는 사용자들이 점점늘어나고, 네트워크상에서 전송되는 정보가 일반문자 데이터에서 영상이나 음성과 같은 멀티미디어 데이터까지 확장되면서 점점 더 많은 정보를 요구하게 되고, 네트워크의 대역폭에 대한 부족함을 느끼게 되었다. 따라서, 점점 더 많은 대역폭을, 여러 사람들이 공유하면서 사용할 수 있는 환경에 대한 요구가 증대되었으며, 그 결과의 하나로 국내에서는 전 국가적인 사업으로 초고속 정보 통신망을 구축하기에 이르렀다. 전문가들은 네트워크와는 별도로 정보통신 및 정보 가전기기 분야에서, 기술의 급속한 발전으로, 상호호환성을 가지면서, 쉽게 다양한 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 집안에서의 네크워크, 소위 홈 네트워킹에 관심을 가지게 되었고, 가까운 시일내에 가정내의 모든 기기 들과, 집 외부의 네트워크간에 연결이 가능해질 것으로 보인다.
