As home network system begins serving in earnest, the recent fruits of research in home service robot show that the new epoch that human and intelligent robots are living, communicating and interacting together at home, may come true in the near future. In the other hand, it is generally known that the multiagent system, performing distributed process together with other different devices in a home network system, is better than single robot or single home server for adapting themselves to home environment and completing their mission because the characteristic of home environment is 'open'. Therefore, in this paper we suggest the framework model to define agents, which is needed lot the home with a home network system, and the communication protocol architecture between agents. For this, we focus our attention on an agent comprising the set of many agent instances rather than the single intelligent or ability of a robot or home server, and also suggest the way of adaptation for agent systems to their environments and interaction with human in the manner of cooperation and negotiation among agents or agent instances in each agent.

The intelligent home network system integrates various devices in the home into one communication network to provide information sharing, control, and operation environment between devices. This intelligent home network system operates around a home server. Home appliances in the era of the 4th industrial revolution will have numerous home servers in logical areas as the intelligent home network in the home accelerates. Therefore, the need for systematic management of home servers is emerging. We propose an agent system for efficient intelligent smart home server management. The agent system monitors the home server and operating environment for home server management of the intelligent smart home network. By referring to this monitored information, the service module of the home server is managed, and the home server is dealt with whether it is normal or not. In addition, by referring to the information collected by the service agent created in the group management server while migrating the home server, it is possible to deal with integrated meter reading, crime prevention, and topics. And when a new service is applied to the home server, it is registered in the management server and distributed to the home server through the agent, so that the intelligent smart home network can be efficiently managed.

Using home network system including home server, home service robot, a variety of device, it is generally known that application of Multi Agent System for performing variously distributed process that can be occur in home environment, is efficient method. In this system, it is intelligent service robot that a key of human interface and physical service offer Therefore, using application of established multi agent system, we can defined Multi Agent Robot System. In 'open' home environment, between all agent data interaction and cooperation are needed for Multi Agent System offer to user that more efficient service. For this, we focus our attention on define as agent that can autonomic drive and offer to user that physical service robots and, design, suggest the simulator can display that between robot agents communication or between other agents, like home server, and robot agents communication information to user interface.

The architecture for RFID-based home network and an intelligent agent for efficiently managing home network are proposed in this paper. The agent consists of six modules-Agent Manager, Data Collector, Execution Controller, Data Storage, Data Queue and User Interface. Agent Manager manages the tasks of modules, and Data Collector collects the data from home appliances through the RFID readersm Execution Controller determines the operations home appliances according to the conditions of the home environment and transfers the operations to the appliances through the RFID readers. Moreover, Data Storage keeps the data which is necessary for the operations of the agent, and Data Queue temporarily stores the data which is collected from home appliances. Lastly, User Interface provides the graphical user interface in which an individual can directly control and monitor the home network. The proposed intelligent agent autonomously learns the circumstances of a home network by analyzing the data about the state of home appliances, and controls home appliances according to the preference of the user. Therefore, the user can live in the best-suited home environment without direct appliance control if he/she performs home networking through the agent.

In the Mobile IP, the movement of Mobile Host(MH) causes packets to be transmitted through a long route. A Correspond Node(CN) first communicate with a Home Agent(HA) when a Mobile Host moved from one subnet to another subnet. The HH-MIP algorithm reduces an inefficient transmission of packets by regarding a Foreign Agent(FA) near a mobile host as a Temporary Home Agent(THA). However, The algorithm costs the unnecessary signaling by measuring the distance of route between a FA and a THA for handover in the case that a Mobile host comes from a THA which a current FA never communicated. To solve this problem, we propose a scheme called Hierarchical Home Agent Handover in Mobile IP(HHH-MIP) algorithm. Our HHH-MIP algorithm only searches tables in a router by using the hierarchical structure between a FA and a THA. The simulation results show that the HHH-MIP algorithm reduces the additional signaling cost.

In this paper, a home network access agent, which controls and monitors networked appliances at home using various terminals regardless of user's location, is designed and implemented. The proposed access agent integrates wire and wireless network on a home gateway (or home server) and is accessed with consistent messages using various terminals such as a web terminal, a PDA and a cellular phone. Also, in order to verify the operation and availability of the agent, a user interface for the various terminals is designed and a home network testbed which is accessed and controlled by the terminals is implemented.

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.

In this paper, we design an authentication model based mobile PKI (Public Key Infrastructure). The authentication mood consists of Root-CA Home-network agent and Foreign-network agent. CA will going to gave the delegation ticket to Home-Agent or Foreign-Agent when they request. The authentication mode information security is various characteristic more then high speed, mobile network and low cost more then previous structure of assure information security.

인터넷의 확산과 All-IP망으로의 망의 진화에 대한 논의가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 더불어 IPv6[1]망에서의 이동성 지원을 위하여 IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force)에서 Mobile IPv6[5]를 제안했다. Mobile IPv6의 기본 발상은 Routing Table의 조작에 의해 다른 링크로 이동한 호스트에게 Packet를 전달 할 수 있게 하는 것이다.(Triangle Routing[4]. 본 논문에서는 Mobile IPv6을 구성하는 요소 중 Home Agent의 기본 구조를 제시했다. Home Agent는 크게 새로운 Message를 인식하고 만들어 보내는 Analyzer와 Sender 그리고 Logic이 들어 있는 Handler, 실제적인 Routing Table를 조작하는 System Manager로 구성된다.
