Recently, there is an increasing demand for ultra-low-latency (ULL) services such as factory automation, autonomous driving, and telesurgery that must meet an end-to-end latency of less than 10 ms. Fifth-generation (5G) New Radio guarantees 0.5 ms one-way latency, so the feasibility of ULL services is higher than in previous mobile communications. However, this feasibility ensures performance at the radio access network level and requires an innovative 5G network architecture for end-to-end ULL across the entire 5G system. Hence, we survey in detailed two the 3rd Generation Partnership Party (3GPP) standardization activities to ensure low latency at network level. 3GPP standardizes mobile edge computing (MEC), a low-latency solution at the edge network, in Release 15/16 and is standardizing time-sensitive communication in Release 16/17 for interworking 5G systems and IEEE 802.1 time-sensitive networking (TSN), a next-generation industry technology for ensuring low/deterministic latency. We developed a 5G system based on 3GPP Release 15 to support MEC with a potential sub-10 ms end-to-end latency in the edge network. In the near future, to provide ULL services in the external network of a 5G system, we suggest a 5G-IEEE TSN interworking system based on 3GPP Release 16/17 that meets an end-to-end latency of 2 ms.

Ultra-low latency networking is a technology that reduces the end-to-end latency related to transport time-sensitive or mission-critical traffic in a network. As the proliferation of the fourth industrial revolution and 5G mobile communications continues, ultra-low latency networking is emerging as an essential technology for supporting various network applications (such as industrial control, tele-surgery, and unmanned vehicles). In this report, we introduce the ultra-low-latency networking technologies that are in progress, categorized by application area, and examine their up-to-date standard status.

본 논문에서는 5G 시스템과 IEEE 시간 민감형 네트워킹(TSN)에 대해서 소개 분석하고 초저지연 네트워크를 지원하기 위하여 5G-TSN에서 시간 민감형 통신을 위한 새로운 이동성 관리 방안을 제안한다. 시간 민감형 네트워킹(TSN)은 이더넷 기반의 저지연, 높은 신뢰성, 결정형 통신을 제공할 수 있는 핵심 요소 기술로써 산업 자동화와 산업용 사물인터넷(IIoT) 분야의 유망한 미래 기술이다. TSN 지원 단말이 TSN 비서비스 영역에서 TSN 서비스 영역으로 이동했을 때, 단말은 관련 이동성 관리가 적절히 수행되지 못하기 때문에 신속하게 TSN 서비스를 받을 수 없다. TSN 서비스 영역의 이동성 상황의 경우, 제안하는 방안은 기존 5G 이동통신망에서의 방안과 비교하여 TSN 서비스 및 초저지연 통신을 즉시 제공받기 위해서 TSN 서비스 사용 가능성을 네트워크에 알리고, 초기 등록을 동작시킨다.

Virtualization allows multiple commodity operating systems to share on a single physical machine. Resource allocation among virtual machines is a key to determine virtual machine performance. To satisfy time-sensitive task on a domain, hypervisor needs to observe the resource requirements and allocates proper amount of CPU resources in a timely manner. In this paper, we propose a realtime credit scheduler for latency sensitive application on virtual machines. The key idea is to register a time event in the Xen hypervisor. Experiment result shows that the proposed scheme is superior to Credit scheduler.

Industrial networks has been developing various technologies from fieldbus technology to industrial Ethernet and time-sensitive networking. The industry expects that the 5G mobile network will solve the diverse and highly specific industrial site requirements. Accordingly, 3GPP has been developing standard functions to provide ultra-high reliability, ultra-high speed, ultra-connection, and ultra-low latency services, and 3GPP Rel-16 began developing ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability communication functions for 5G mobile networks to support vertical industries. In this paper, we show the related standardization trends and requirements to apply industrial IoT service scenarios to 5G mobile networks, and in particular, we introduce 5G system features and extended 5G system architecture to provide time sensitive communication and time synchronization services.

지난 10년간 CPU의 속도는 메모리의 속도에 비해 급속한 속도로 발전하였다 그 결과 데이터 베이스 시스템을 포함한 다른 컴퓨터 응용분야에서 메모리의 접근이 병목현상을 일으키게 되었다. 메모리의 접근 속도를 줄이기 위해 캐시 메모리가 도입되었다 하지만 캐시 메모리는 원하는 데이타가 캐시에 옮겨져 있어야 메모리 접근 속도를 줄일 수 있다. 때문에 응용프로그램에서 데이타를 어떤 순서로 액세스 하느냐에 따라 캐시의 활용도가 달라지고 응용프로그램의 성능이 달라지게 된다. 이 시점에서 현재 컴퓨터에서 B+-트리가 T-트리보다 더 빠르다는 사실이 알려졌다. B+-트리가 T-트리보다 캐시를 더 효율적으로 사용하기 때문이다. 또한 B+-트리를 개선하여 캐시를 더욱 효율적으로 사용하는 CSB+-트리(Cache Sensitive B+-tree)가 제안되기도 하였다 본 논문의 목표는 T-트리가 캐시를 효율적으로 사용하도록 새로운 T-트리 구조를 개발하는 것이다. CSB+-트리와 같이 시스템의 L2 캐시를 최대한 활용하며 기존 T-트리가 가지는 장점을 가지는 새로운 CST-트리(Cache Sensitive T-트리)를 설계 개발하고, 실험을 통해 기타 다른 인덱스 구조에 비교하여 CST-트리의 우수성을 보인다.

센서네트워크가 넓은 영역에서의 환경 감시 혹은 u-City에서의 정보전송 등에 이용될 경우 노드 개수는 많이 증가하게 된다. 이 때 발생하는 문제점 중 하나는 역방향 전송 지연시간이 급격하게 늘어난다는 점이다. 이 논문 에서는 대규모 센서네트워크에서 역방향 패킷의 지연시간을 최소화할 수 있는 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 지그비 방식과 비교할 때 에너지 소비는 지그비와 거의 비슷하면서도 지연시간을 90% 이상 줄일 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Pub/Sub (Publish/Subscribe) paradigm is a simple and easy to use model for interconnecting applications in a distributed environment. In general, subscribers register their interests in a topic or a pattern of events and then asynchronously receive events matching their interest, regardless of the events' publisher. In order to build a low latency lightweight pub/sub system for Internet of Things (IoT) services, we propose a GQSFPS (Group Quorum System-based Fog Pub/Sub) system that is a core component in the event-driven service oriented architecture framework for IoT services. The GQSFPS organizes multiple installed pub/sub brokers in the fog servers into a group quorum based P2P (peer-to-peer) topology for the efficient searching and the low latency accessing of events. Therefore, the events of IoT are cached on the basis of group quorum, and the delay-sensitive IoT applications of edge devices can effectively access the cached events from group quorum fog servers in low latency. The performance of the proposed GQSFPS is evaluated through an analytical model, and is compared to the GQPS (grid quorum-based pud/sub system).

The study about VR (Virtual Reality) has been done from the 1960s, but technical limits and high cost made VR hard to commercialize. However, in recent, high resolution display, computing power and 3D sensing have developed and hardware has become affordable. Therefore, normal users can get high quality of immersion and interaction. However, HMD devices which offer VR environment have high latency, so it disrupts the VR environment. People are usually sensitive to relative latency over 20ms. In this paper, as adding the Electromyogram (EMG) sensors to typical IMU sensor only system, the latency reduction method is proposed. By changing software and hardware components, some cases the latency was reduced significantly. Hence, this study covers the possibility and the experimental verification about EMG sensors for reducing the latency.

Sensor nodes have various energy and computational constraints because of their inexpensive nature and ad-hoc method of deployment. Considerable research has been focused at overcoming these deficiencies through faster media accessing, more energy efficient routing, localization algorithms and system design. Our research attempts to provide a method of improvement MAC performance in these issues. We show that traditional carrier-sense multiple access(CSMA) protocols like IEEE 802.11 do not handle the first constraint adequately, and do not take advantage of the second property, leading to degraded latency and throughput as the network scales in size, We present more efficient method of a medium access for real-time wireless sensor networks. Proposed MAC protocol is a randomized CSMA protocol, but unlike previous legacy protocols, does not use a time-varying contention window from which a node randomly picks a transmission slot. To reduce the latency for the delivery of event reports, it carefully decides a fixed-size contention window, non-uniform probability distribution of transmitting in each slot within the window. We show that it can offer up to several times latency reduction compared to legacy of IEEE 802.11 as the size of the sensor network scales up to 256 nodes using widely used simulator ns-2. We, finally show that proposed MAC scheme comes close to meeting bounds on the best latency achievable by a decentralized CSMA-based MAC protocol for real-time wireless sensor networks which is sensitive to latency.
