본 논문은 센서 네트워크에서 효율적인 에너지 분산을 위한 동적인 다중 라우팅 기법을 제안한다. 센서 노드는 수집된 데이터의 처리에 사용되는 에너지에 비해서 데이터를 전송하는데 대부분의 에너지를 소비한다. 또한, 환경적인 영향 및 에너지의 고갈로 인한 센서 노드의 고장이 전체 네트워크의 통신에 영향을 주지 않아야 한다. 따라서 본 논문은 일정 노드에 수집된 데이터의 전송이 가중되어 센서 네트워크 노드의 활용성이 떨어지는 것을 지양하기 위해서 이웃 노드의 잔존 에너지량을 고려하고 데이터의 이동을 위해 싱크까지의 방향성 벡터 정보를 사용한 에너지 분산 라우팅 기법을 제안한다.

This paper is concerned with scheduling in Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) using a Fuzzy Logic (FL) approach. Four fuzzy input variables: machine allocated processing time, machine priority, machine available time and transportation priority are defined. The job priority is the output fuzzy variable, showing the priority status of a job to be selected for the next operation on a machine. The model will first select the machines and then assign operations based on a multi-criteria scheduling scheme. System/machine utilization, minimizing mean flow time and balancing machine usage will be covered. Experimental and comparative tests indicate the superiority of this fuzzy based scheduling model over the existing approaches.

A clustering scheme for ad hoc networks is aimed at managing a number of mobile devices by utilizing hierarchical structure of the networks. In order to construct and maintain an effective hierarchical structure in ad hoc networks where mobile devices may move at high mobility, the following requirements must be satisfied. The role of each mobile device for the hierarchical structure is adaptive to dynamic change of the topology of the ad hoc networks. The role of each mobile device should thus change autonomously based on the local information. The overhead for management of the hierarchical structure is small. The number of mobile devices in each cluster should thus be almost equivalent. This paper proposes an adaptive multihop clustering scheme for highly mobile ad hoc networks. The results obtained by extensive simulation experiments show that the proposed scheme does not depend on mobility and node degree of mobile devices in the ad hoc network, which satisfy the above requirements.

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) offers several advantages in dynamic routing, flexible programmable control and custom application-driven network management. However, the programmability of the data plane in traditional SDN is limited. A network operator cannot change the ability of the data plane and perform complex packet processing on the data plane, which limits the flexibility and extendibility of SDN. In the paper, AP-SDN (Action Program enabled Software-Defined Networking) architecture is proposed, which extends the action set of SDN data plane. In the proposed architecture, a modified Open vSwitch is utilized in the data plane allowing the execution of action programs at runtime, thus enabling complex packet processing. An example action program is also implemented which transparently encrypts traffic for terminals. At last, a prototype system of AP-SDN is developed and experiments show its effectiveness and performance.

In vehicular networks, diverse safety information can be shared among vehicles through internet connections. In vehicle-to-internet communications, vehicles on the road are wirelessly connected to different cloud networks, thereby accelerating safety information exchange. Onboard sensors acquire traffic-related information, and reliable intermediate nodes and network services, such as navigational facilities, allow to transmit safety information to distant target vehicles and stations. Using vehicle-to-network communications, we minimize delays and achieve high accuracy through consistent connectivity links. Our proposed approach uses intermediate nodes with two-hop separation to forward information. Target vehicle detection and routing of safety information are performed using machine learning algorithms. Compared with existing vehicle-to-internet solutions, our approach provides substantial improvements by reducing latency, packet drop, and overhead.

MANET에서의 전통적인 라우팅 프로토콜은 일반적으로 두 종류로 나눠지는데 proactive 라우팅 프로토콜과 on-demand 라우팅 프로토콜이다. 라우팅 정보의 proactive 전파와 reactive 발견 사이에는 필수적인 trade-off 가 존재한다. 모든 시나리오들을 충족하는 라우팅 프로토콜이 존재하지 않는 것은 분명하다. 그래서 최적의 라우팅 프로토콜을 발견하기 위한 연구가 계속되고 있으며 IETF의 MANET 워킹그룹은 여러 다른 프로토콜을 제안 중에 있고 그 중에 하나가 on-demand 라우팅 프로토콜의 AODV를 계승한 DYMO(Dynamic MANET On-demand)이다. DYMO는 경로 축적 메커니즘을 채택하였다. 경로 발견 과정에서 노드들은 라우팅 메시지를 포워딩하기 전에 그들 자신의 라우팅 정보도 패킷에 추가할 수 있다. 결국 소스와 목적지 사이의 모든 노드들의 라우팅 정보가 교환되는 것이다. 이 논문에서는 이 경로 축적 메커니즘의 사용 유무에 따라 다양한 속도와 트래픽 부하에서 DYMO의 성능이 어떻게 변하고 최적의 환경은 무엇인지 연구해보고자 한다.

With an increase in the relevance of next-generation integrated networking environments, the need to effectively utilize advanced networking techniques also increases. Specifically, integrating Software-Defined Networking (SDN) with Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is critical for enhancing network flexibility and addressing challenges such as security vulnerabilities and complex network management. SDN enhances operational flexibility by separating the control and data planes, introducing management complexities. This paper proposes a reinforcement learning-based network path optimization strategy within SDN environments to maximize performance, minimize latency, and optimize resource usage in MEC settings. The proposed Enhanced Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO)-based scheme effectively selects optimal routing paths in dynamic conditions, reducing average delay times to about 60 ms and lowering energy consumption. As the proposed method outperforms conventional schemes, it poses significant practical applications.

적대적이고 급변하는 애드혹 네트워크에서 각 노드들은 항상 적대적인 공격자들로부터 위조나 변조의 공격을 받을 수 있어서 통신 내용과 경로의 보안성이 필요하다. AnonDSR 기법은 보안성을 유지하면서 익명성을 효율적으로 보장하는 것으로 알려져 있지만 기존 기법에 비해 암호키를 설립하는 추가적인 절차를 수행하므로 통신 수행시간이 길어지는 문제가 발생한다. 제안 기법에서는 암호키 설립 단계와 통신경로를 설정하는 단계를 동시 수행하고 데이터 전송시에는 공유키로 암호화를 추가적으로 수행해서 보안 강도를 높인다. 결과적으로 제안기법은 AnonDSR 에 비해 매번 통신 수행시간이 최대 31% 향상되고 보안성도 강화된다.

A wireless sensor network is the combination of a large number of deployed sensors over an area. Communication between the sensors is the most important factor for a successful sensor network. It is mandatory that long distance and multi-hop communication will occur between sensors. Generally sensors relay the sensed data of a particular territory to the command center via a base station. For the non uniformed deployment of sensors many sensors may deploy in hostile areas surrounded by full of obstacles or in other condition it may be out of the direct communication range of the base station. It seems a critical problem for routing data to and from those sensors to the base station. This paper proposes a route management scheme using a dynamic load balancing approach based on residual energy of each agent sensors.

In this paper, label assignment schemes considering the IP flow model for the efficient MPLS traffic engineering are proposed and evaluated. Based on the IP flow model, the IP flows are classified into transient flows and base flows. Base flows, which last for a long time, transmit data in high bit rate, and be composed of many packets, have good implications for the MPLS traffic engineering, because they usually cause network congestion. To make use of base flows for the MPLS traffic engineering, we propose two base flow classifiers and label assignment schemes where transient flows are allocated to the default LSPs and base flows to explicit LSPs. Proposed schemes are based on the traffic-driven label triggering method combined with a routing tabel. The first base flow classifier uses both flow size in packet counts and routing entries, and the other one, extending the dynamic X/Y flow classifier, is based on a cut-through ratio. Proposed schemes are shown to minimize the number of labels, not degrading the total cut-through ratio.
