Requirements for device networks differ greatly from those of data(business) networks. Consequently, any control network technology which uses a fieldbus protocol is, in general, different from IP network protocol TCP/IP. One needs to integrate fieldbus protocol and TCP/IP to realize distributed control over IP network or internet. This paper suggests a basic concept that can be applied to distributed control over IP network or internet. Specifically, LonWorks technology that uses LonTalk protocol is reviewed as device network. LonWorks technology provides networked intelligent I/O and controllers which make it a powerful, expandable solution. It is also addressed that many hardwired PLCs can be replaced by LonWorks devices. Connecting these remote LonWorks networks to the Internet can provide a powerful, integrated, distributed control system.

With the current advances in optical WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) networking technologies and the increasing demand for network bandwidth the Next Generation Internet is expected to be a network that runs IP(Internet Protocol) directly over WDM-based optical networks. The network control architecture for the IP over WDM networks is different from that of traditional Internet since the underlying WDM devices have more constraints than electronic IP routers such as the lack of optical buffers and wavelength continuity property etc. In this paper we introduce several architectural models for implementing IP over WDM networks and propose an integrated network control framework for the IP over WDM networks. This framework leverages the traffic engineering control architecture for the MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) networks and is mainly developed for the IP over packet-switched WDM networks. We also report several preliminary simulation results of contention resolution schemes in the packet-switched WDM networks.

Requirements for device control networks differ greatly from those of data (business) networks. Consequently, any control network which uses a filedbus protocol is, in general, different from If network protocol TCP/IP. One then needs to integrate both fieldbus protocol and TCP/IP to realize distributed control over IP network or internet. LonWorks technology provides networked intelligent I/O and controllers which make it a powerful, expandable solution. Connecting these remote Lon Works networks to the Internet can provide a powerful, integrated, distributed control system. This paper suggests a basic concept that be applied to distributed control over IP network or internet.

BACnet(Building Automation and Control networks) is a standard data communication protocol designed specifically for building automation and control systems. BACnet provides BACnet/IP Protocol for data communication through the internet. BACnet device transmits BACnet broadcast messages and BACnet/IP messages using conventional IP technologies. Specially, BBMD(BACnet Broadcasting Management Device) is used to deliver BACnet broadcast messages. In this study, we propose a mechanism of fault tolerant BBMD in the BACnet/IP protocol. The Fault Tolerant BBMD mechanism(FTBM) improves the connectivity of BACnet/IP networks by inheriting the operation of BBMD in the networks. The FTBM is implemented with added functions to the original BACnet/IP protocol so that it can be applied together with original BACnet/IP devices. We also prove the FTBM's backward compatibility with original BACnet/IP protocol using experimental analysis.

The Internet telephony service is one of the commercially successful Internet application services. VoIP technology makes the service come true. VoIP deploys H.323 or SIP as the standard protocol for the distributed multimedia services over the Internet in which QoS is not guaranteed. VoIP carries the packetized voice over the RTP/UDP/IP protocol stack. The data transmission trouble is caused by UDP when the service is provided in private networks and some ISP-provided Internet access networks in the private address space. The Internet telephony users in such networks cannot listen the voices of the other parties in the public Internet or PSTN. Making the problem more difficult, the Internet telephony service considered in this paper gets the incoming voice packets of every session through only one UDP port number. In this paper, three schemes including the terminal proxy, the gateway proxy, and the protocol translation are suggested to solve the problems. The design and implementation of the NAT proxy server based on gateway proxy scheme are described in detail.

High speed all optical network is a viable option to satisfy the exponential growth of internet usage in the recent years. Optical networks offer very high bit rates and, by employing technologies like internet protocol over wavelength division multiplexing(IP-over-WDM), these high bit rates can be effectively utilized. However, failure of a network component, carrying such high speed data traffic can result in enormous loss of data in a few seconds and persistence of a failure can severely degrade the performance of the entire network. Designing IP-over-WDM networks, which can withstand failures, has been subject of considerable interest in the research community recently. Most of the research is focused on the failure of optical links in the network. This paper addresses the problem of designing IP-over-WDM networks that do not suffer service degradation in case of a single link failure. The paper proposes an approach based on the framework provided by a recent paper by M. Kurant and P. Thiran. The proposed approach can be used to design large survivable IP-over-WDM networks.

Latency, an identified element of Internet protocol (IP) mobility protocol execution, can reduce handover performance in mobile networks. Although the performance can be improved by applying an effective network-based IP mobility scheme in place of the traditional host-based alternatives, the existing inter-domain extensions of network-based IP mobility continue to suffer from an extended handover latency. This paper proposes a new inter-domain network-based IP mobility scheme based on node movement prediction. The proposed scheme accelerates the handover by preparing the future domain of the mobile node in a proactive manner. Analytical and simulation-based evaluations confirm improved performance of the proposed scheme in terms of handover latency and packet loss compared with existing schemes.

Since Internet Protocol (IP) is the most important protocol in Next Generation Networks (NGNs), 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) utilizes Session Initial Protocol (SIP) based on IP as the base protocol for negotiating sessions in IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). Different from traditional circuit-switched network, in IMS, the media traffic and signaling are delivered through IP transport. The media traffic may affect the signaling efficiency in core network, due to traffic collisions and best effort packets delivery. This paper proposes a novel path-migration mechanism for enhancing the traffic efficiency in integrated NGN-IMS. The simulation results show that the interference and traffic collision can be reduce by applying proposed path-migration mechanism and the signaling efficiency in core network can be improved with higher system capability and voice quality.
