Presently, optical burst switching (OBS) technology is under study as a promising solution for the backbone of the optical Internet in the near future because OBS eliminates the optical buffer problem at the switching node with the help of no optical/electro/optical conversion and guarantees class of service without any buffering. To implement the OBS network, there are a lot of challenging issues to be solved. The edge router, burst offset time management, and burst assembly mechanism are critical issues. In addition, the core router needs data burst and control header packet scheduling, a protection and restoration mechanism, and a contention resolution scheme. In this paper, we focus on the burst assembly mechanism. We present a novel data burst generation algorithm that uses hysteresis characteristics in the queueing model for the ingress edge node in optical burst switching networks. Simulation with Poisson and self-similar traffic models shows that this algorithm adaptively changes the data burst size according to the offered load and offers high average data burst utilization with a lower timer operation. It also reduces the possibility of a continuous blocking problem in the bandwidth reservation request, limits the maximum queueing delay, and minimizes the required burst size by lifting up data burst utilization for bursty input IP traffic.

The deployment of mobile femtocellular networks can enhance the service quality for the users inside the vehicles. The deployment of mobile femtocells generates a lot of handover calls. Also, numbers of group handover scenarios are found in mobile femtocellular network deployment. The ability to seamlessly switch between the femtocells and the macrocell networks is a key concern for femtocell network deployment. However, until now there is no effective and complete handover scheme for the mobile femtocell network deployment. Also handover between the backhaul networks is a major concern for the mobile femtocellular network deployment. In this paper, we propose handover control between the access networks for the individual handover cases. Call flows for the handover between the backhaul networks of the macrocell-to-macrocell case are proposed in this paper. We also propose the link switching for the FSO based backhaul networks. The proposed resource allocation scheme ensures the negligible handover call dropping probability as well as higher bandwidth utilization.

최근 인터넷 서비스는 최선형 서비스 제공 위주에서 실시간 멀티미디어 서비스들의 QoS 보장을 함께 지원하는 차등화된 서비스 형태로 발전하고 있다. 또한, 기존의 SONET/SDH 전송망에서 다중 기가비트 파장을 제공하는 WDM 기술이 차세대 인터넷의 중심 기술로 부상하고 있다. WDM 백본망은 Ingress와 Egress 쌍 간에 여러 lightpath를 제공하므로 각각의 광 품질에 따라 각기 다른 광 경로를 설정하여 차등화된 광 서비스를 제공할 수 있으나, 현재의 WDM 백본망은 종단간 QoS 서비스 보장을 위한 어떠한 지원도 제공하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 실시간 멀티미디어 서비스들을 IP over WDM 백본망에 적용하기 위해, 파장을 레이블로 사용하여 QoS 제공 기능과 트래픽 분산 기능을 용이하게 수행하는 GMPLS 기술을 차등화 서비스 기술과 같이 접목하여 새로운 형태의 차등화된 광 QoS 서비스(DOS) 제공 방안을 기술 한다.

Ethernet passive optical network (EPON) is the next-generation technology mitigating the bottleneck between high-capacity local area networks (LANs) and a backbone network. The bottleneck is aggrevated depending on burstiness and long range dependence (LRD) of traffic characteristics as well as amount of outgoing traffic from the high-capacity LANs. The proposed scheme decreases average packet delay for data upstreaming by considering such traffic characteristics to dynamically allocate bandwidth to multiple optical network units (ONUs). In addition, it can appropriately support delay-sensitive traffic such as constant bit ratio (CBR) traffic by making maximum cycle time fix regardless of the number of ONUs. The comprehensive simulation results indicate that the proposed scheme acheives up to 77% and 82% lower than previous schemes in terms of average packet delay and average queue size while it limits the maximum cycle time to twice of the basic cycle time.

We present a new MDA-based Mobile-IPv6 multicast routing algorithm for wirelese service operators to offer Mobile-IP over IMT-2000 service under IMT-2000 network by taking advantage of the existing infrastructure for IMT-2000 multimedia application services. The extended IMT-2000 system architectures use an PDSNs (i.e. IWFs), and the home network (i.e. Internet) backbone and intermediate network are composed of ATM entities. A key feature of the new protocol is the use of MDA(Multicast Delivery Agent) to reduce delivery path length of the multicast datagram. We show that proposed protocol is efficient in terms of various performance measures such as multicast traffic load, multicast related handoff, and average routing length when we implement it using the Mobile-IPv6. Particularly, the number of tunneling and average routing length of datagram are reduced relatively, the multicast traffic load is also decreased.

Routing technologies considering QoS-based hypermedia services have been seen as a crucial network property in next generation optical Internet (NGOI) networks based on IP/dense-wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM). The huge potential capacity of one single fiber. which is in Tb/s range, can be exploited by applying DWDM technology which transfers multiple data streams (classified and aggregated IP traffics) on multiple wavelengths (classified with QoS-based) simultaneously. So, DWDM-based optical networks have been a favorable approach for the next generation optical backbone networks. Finding a qualified path meeting the multiple constraints is a multi-constraint optimization problem, which has been proven to be NP-complete and cannot be solved by a simple algorithm. The majority of previous works in DWDM networks has viewed heuristic QoS routing algorithms (as an extension of the current Internet routing paradigm) which are very complex and cause the operational and implementation overheads. This aspect will be more pronounced when the network is unstable or when the size of network is large. In this paper, we propose a flooding-based unicast and multicast QoS routing methodologies(YS-QUR and YS-QMR) which incur much lower message overhead yet yields a good connection establishment success rate. The simulation results demonstrate that the YS-QUR and YS-QMR algorithms are superior to the previous routing algorithms.

Wireless mesh networks contain multi-hop routing protocols between wireless nodes and are connected to the Internet through a gateway. These networks perform a role as a backbone and are scalable for main applications. We propose the design of QoS supporting mechanisms for wireless mesh networks using software defined networking. Our proposed scheme is cost-effective and features adaptive QoS mechanisms for wireless router's resource constraints. The QoS mechanisms use software defined networking technology with Openflow protocol based on diffserv and intserv models with MPLS mechanism and RSVP respectively. A performance evaluation model is suggested to verify the validity of the proposed scheme using several QoSmetrics of the wireless mesh networks.

Agrometeorological information is essential in many agricultural decisions if it reaches the user in a timely and appropriate manner. Agriculture is the backbone to local, regional, and global economic development. Thus, strengthening agrometeorological application to diverse agricultural sectors will benefit economic development. This paper discusses three distinct organizational minions that all share the same need for improved information technology. The World Meteorological Organization's (WMOs) Commission for Agricultural Meteorology (CAgM) has global responsibility for improved agrometeorological services of Members to aid agricultural production and to conserve natural resources. The United States Department of Agriculture, World Agricultural Outlook Board, publishes monthly World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates, considered to be a benchmark for both government and industry in production and trade decisions. The National Drought Policy Commission (NDPC), created by an act of the United States Congress, formulated a national drought policy based on preparedness rather than on crisis management. All three organizations recognize the need for IT applications in agricultural meteorology and have been active in implementing this technology. The development of information technology offers new means of dissemination of agrometeorological products. World Agrometeorological Information Service (WAMIS) has taken advantage of the global Internet application to offer WMO Members a dedicated web server to host agrometeorological bulletins and training modules.

Nowadays, transmission bandwidth for network traffic is increasing and the type is varied such as peer-to-peer (PZP), real-time video, and so on, because distributed computing environment is spread and various network-based applications are developed. However, as PZP traffic occupies much volume among Internet backbone traffics, transmission bandwidth and quality of service(QoS) of other network applications such as web, ftp, and real-time video cannot be guaranteed. In previous research, the port-based technique which checks well-known port number and the Deep Packet Inspection(DPI) technique which checks the payload of packets were suggested for solving the problem of the P2P traffics, however there were difficulties to apply those methods to detection of P2P traffics because P2P applications are not used well-known port number and payload of packets may be encrypted. A proposed algorithm for identifying P2P heavy traffics based on flow transport parameters and behavioral characteristics can solve the problem of the port-based technique and the DPI technique. The focus of this paper is to identify P2P heavy traffic flows rather than all P2P traffics. P2P traffics are consist of two steps i)searching the opposite peer which have some contents ii) downloading the contents from one or more peers. We define P2P flow patterns on these P2P applications' features and then implement the system to classify P2P heavy traffics.
