  • Mobile Node usually communicate with CN bia only it's own HA but Nested Mobile Networks correspond with CN bia all HA involved with them. when Mobile Network of a MR moves from its home link to a foreign link in the stationary network. then Mobile Network of another MR moves from its home link in stationary network to foreign link in previous mobile network. CN send Packet destined to the latter MR via both Home Agent of the former MR and the latter MR. There are two problem in this scenario. One is inefficient routing path that bypass via several HA. the other is waste of transmission resource and delay of Registration process which change of Nested Mobile Network Architecture cause Mobile Router. so We propose MRA(Mobile Relay Agent) to support effective routing by local mobility management.

  • Network human-robot interface is an important research topic. In home application, users access the robotic system directly via voice, gestures or through the network. Users explore a system by using the services provided by this system and to some extend users are enable to participate in a service as partners. A service may be provided by a robot, a group of robots or robots and other network connected systems (distributed sensors, information systems, etc). All these services are done in the network environment, where uncertainty such as the unstable network connection, the availability of the partners in a service, exists. Moreover, these services are controlled by several users, accessing at different time by different methods. Our research aimed at solving this problem to provide a high available level, flexible coordination system. In this paper, a multi-agent framework is proposed. This framework is validated by using our new concept of slave agents, a responsive multi-agent environment, a virtual directory facilitator (VDF), and a task allocation system using contract net protocol. Our system uses a mixed model between distributed and centralized model. It uses a centralized agent management system (AMS) to control the overall system. However, the partners and users may be distributed agents connected to the center through agent communication or centralized at the AMS container using the slave agents to represent the physical agents. The system is able to determine the task allocation for a group of robot working as a team to provide a service. A number of experiments have been conducted successfully in our lab environment using Issac robot, a PDA for user agent and a wireless network system, operated under our multi agent framework control. The experiments show that this framework works well and provides some advantages to existing systems.

  • This paper mentions a centralized approach based on SNMP protocol and distributed approach based on mobile agent in network management s system. And it presents a few Quantitative models for systematically evaluating those two different approaches. To do this, we propose model m that is applicable under a uniform network environment, and compare network execution times of each paradigms based on parameters from s simulation. The model is then refined to take into account non-uniform networks. We show that it can reduce overall network execution times b by determining the best interaction patterns to perfo$\pi$n network management operations from this model. We believe that the model proposed h here should help us to decide appropriate paradigms and interaction patterns for developing network management applications.

  • The video game Tetris is one of most popular game and it is well known that its game rule can be modelled as MDP (Markov Decision Process). This paper presents a DQN (Deep Q-Network) based game agent for Tetris game. To this end, the state is defined as the captured image of the Tetris game board and the reward is designed as a function of cleared lines by the game agent. The action is defined as left, right, rotate, drop, and their finite number of combinations. In addition to this, PER (Prioritized Experience Replay) is employed in order to enhance learning performance. To train the network more than 500000 episodes are used. The game agent employs the trained network to make a decision. The performance of the developed algorithm is validated via not only simulation but also real Tetris robot agent which is made of a camera, two Arduinos, 4 servo motors, and artificial fingers by 3D printing.

  • 내부 네트워크의 IP관리를 위해 많은 네트워크 관리 방안 및 솔루션들이 기 구축되어 운영 중이고, 이를 위해 내부 네트워크에 연결된 모든 단말에 특정 Agent를 설치하여 IP를 관리하고 있어 단말(PC, IPT전화기 등)의 OS에 따른 기종별 Agent의 호환문제 및 단말에 기 설치 운영중인 응용프로그램과의 충돌문제가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 네트워크 IP관리를 위해 Agent가 필요 없는 네트워크 관리 방식을 제안한다. 네트워크 Switch장비 Firmware의 포트차단 설정을 이용한 기법으로 Agent의 설치없이 Switch장비의 Firmware를 이용하여 네트워크의 접근제어가 가능함을 제안한다. 이를 위하여 인가되지 않은 IP를 Switch장비의 Firmware로 차단하여 네트워크의 접근제어가 가능함을 증명하였다.

  • The mobile agent, which handles a given task while migrating between the sensor nodes, moves including the execution commands and task processing results. This increases the size of the mobile agent, causing the network to load, leading to the migration time delay and the loss of migration reliability. This paper presents the method of lightening the mobile agent using distributed object technology and the algorithm for exploring and providing the optimal migration path that is actively performed in the event of network traffic, and it proposes a method to ensure the reliability of the mobile agent migration by applying them. In addition, through the comparative analysis experiments based on agent size and network traffic for the migration time of mobile agent equipped with active rules in sensor network-based mobile agent middleware environment, applying the proposed methods proves to ensure the autonomy and migration reliability of the mobile agent.

  • The home network environment can be defined as a network environment, connecting digital home devices such as computer systems, digital appliances, and mobile devices. In this kind of home network environments, there will be numerous local/remote interactions to monitor and control the home network devices and the home gateway. Such an environment may result in communication bottleneck. By applying the mobile agents that can migrate among the computing devices autonomously and work on behalf of the user, remote interactions and network traffics can be reduced enormously. The mobile agent authentication is necessary to apply mobile agent concept to the home network environments, as a prerequisite technology for authorization or access control to the home network devices and resources. The existing mobile agent systems have mainly used the public key based authentication scheme, which is not suitable to the home network environments, composed of digital devices of limited computation capability. In this paper, we propose a shared key based mobile agent authentication scheme for single home domain and expand the scheme to multiple domain environments with the public key based authentication scheme. Application of the shared key encryption scheme to the single domain mobile agent authentication enables to authenticate the mobile agent with less overhead than the public key based authentication scheme.

  • This paper proposes fault diagnosis and correction algorithms using agent collaboration, and a management model for managing network configuration faults. This management model is composed of three processes-fault detection, fault diagnosis and fault correction. Each process, based on RBR, operates on using rules which are consisted in Rule-based Knowledge Database. Proposed algorithm selves the complex fault problem that a system could not work out by itself, using agent collaboration. And the algorithm does efficiently diagnose and correct network configuration faults in abnormal network states.

  • In the course of Internet proliferation, many network-related technologies are examined for possible growth and evolution. The use of Internet-based technologies in private networks has further fuelled the demand for network-based applications. The most promising among the new paradigms is use of mobile agents. The mobile agent is capable of migrating autonomously from node to node in the network, to perform some computation on behalf of the user. The mobile agent paradigm is attractive alternative to traditional client-server programming for a significant class of network-centric applications. It also however, suffers from a major drawback, namely, the potential for malicious attacks, abuse of resources pilfering of information, and other security issues. These issues are significantly hampering the acceptance of the mobile-agent paradigm. This paper describe the design & implementation of secure mobile agent gateway that split and merge the agent cede with security policy database. This mechanism will promote the security in mobile agent systems and mobile agent itself.
