In this paper, we have presented a quantitative performance effect of CCP(Call Control Processor) when SAAL(Signalling ATM Adaptation Layer) function is distributed from CCP to SIMs(Subscriber Interface Modules) in an ATM switching system with distributed architecutre. For the performance analysis, SLAM II simulation language is used and subscriber signalling messageand inter-processor communication messages according to Q.2931 based local call processing procedure are taken into consideration in the proposed queuing network model. The results of simulation are compared with in case of processing SAAL function on CCP. It is observed that the processing utilization of CCP reach 24,000 BHCA and 25,700 BHCAwhen SAAL function load amounts to 10% and 20% of the processing time of the total message, respectively. These values shows that the processing utilization of CCP is alleviated about 7% in comparison with 2,000 BHCA in case that SAAL function is carried out on CCP. Consquently, it is shown that we have to consider seriously how to distribute the functions concerning call processing in a large cale ATM switching system architecture accomodating a number of SIMs.

This paper proposes a new method to optimize energy consumption in a wireless modem by setting up a transmission power value according to the distance between nodes and circumstance in the MAC layer of IEEE 802.15.4. The proposed method can dynamically find an optimal transmission power range using the binary search scheme and minimize overhead caused by multiple message transmissions when determining the optimal transmission power. The determined transmission power is used for transmitting data packets and can be modified dynamically depending on the changes in a network environment when exchanging data packets and acknowledgement signals. The results of the simulations show 30% reduction in energy consumption while 2.5 times increase in data transmission rate per unit of energy comparing with IEEE 802.15.4 standard.

The wireless sensor networking standard DASH7 operates in low-power communication with a better transmission quality in active RFID networks. The DASH7 security standard supports public key cryptography. At present, the DASH7 standard uses the message authentication code in the network layer for authentication and integrity. However, its security standard is still in an incubation stage with respect to the implementation of a crypto exchange over a DASH7 network. Effective key management is an important factor for privacy and security. If organizations are not careful about where and how keys are stored, they leave the encrypted data vulnerable to theft. In this regard, we present a key management system designed for efficient key management through public key infrastructure authentication as well as a non-repudiation feature for the DASH7 standard. We analyze the performance of the proposed system on a basis of various performance criteria such as latency and throughput.

The home network has been revitalized due to the emergence of the high-speed broadband network and explosive increases of the home network services. Especially multicast based high-definition (HD) IPTV service is on high demand from both Internet service provider (ISP) and users. In order to provide high quality HD IPTV service without packet loss and delay, the ISP utilizes various network QoS mechanisms. Due to the misleading fact, that the home gateway is considered as an end terminal in terms of the ISP's viewpoint, the ISPs can not guarantee the end-to-end QoS within the scope of the current home network architecture. Therefore, an independent QoS guaranteed mechanism should be considered within the home network domain. As the home gateway manages both private home and public access network within the home network, we propose and implement a novel QoS mechanism for the multicast based HD IPTV service over the home gateway. In order to provide QoS guaranteed HD IPTV service, the proposed mechanism classifies the packets, manages home network bandwidth resources, and executes call admission control using the channel join message. Also, we utilize layer 2 multicast packet forwarding scheme to improve the overall performance of the home network services. Through the experiments of implementing the multicast based HD IPTV services, we will verify the efficiency of the proposed mechanism.

Buyer-seller watermarking protocol is defined as the practice of imperceptible altering a digital content to embed a message using watermarking in the encryption domain. This protocol is acknowledged as one kind of copyright protection techniques in electronic commerce. Buyer-seller watermarking protocol is fundamentally based on public-key cryptosystem that is operating using the algebraic property of an integer. However, in general usage, digital contents which are handled in watermarking scheme mostly exist as real numbers in frequency domain through DCT, DFT, DWT, etc. Therefore, in order to use the watermarking scheme in a cryptographic protocol, digital contents that exist as real number must be transformed into integer type through preprocessing beforehand. In this paper, we presented a new watermarking scheme in an encrypted domain in an image that is based on the block-DCT framework and homomorphic encryption method for buyer-seller watermarking protocol. We applied integral-processing in order to modify the decimal layer. And we designed a direction-adaptive watermarking scheme by analyzing distribution property of the frequency coefficients in a block using JND threshold. From the experimental results, the proposed scheme was confirmed to have a good robustness and invisibility.

The security key management function is a key element to secure network environment, and many protocols include IPSec, HIP, etc. demand this function. There are two solutions to provide the key management function in the network layer, one is a method for storing security key material in the directory, and the other is a method for storing security key material in DNS. In this paper we present an implementation of key management system by LDAP. We deployed the open source solutions for directory service(OpenLDAP), cryptographic algorithm (FLINT/C), IPSec(FreeS/WAN), and verified the key management system by the encrypted message exchange and the interoperability test by un daemon.

In this paper, we describe overhead problems which result from the supporting NEMO in PMIPv6 networks, and propose a novel binding scheme for the network-based mobility management with new network-layer message which solves the problems of the additional tunnel. Our proposed binding scheme can reduce handover latency without mobility-related procedure by the hosts. A performance evaluation shows that the proposed scheme works more efficiently than the scheme which is proposed by the IETF NETLMM WG in terms of packet loss, handover latency and average packet throughput.

In wireless ad-hoc network, the detection of link breakage and re-establishing the route path causes lots of network overhead and results in communication delay. In the LBN method, the node causing a link breakage actively sends a message to neighbors so that they can instantly start re-establishing process of new path. In this paper we describe the result of network simulation we performed using NS2 to show the effectiveness of LBN method.

광대역 무선 접속 표준을 관장하는 IEEE 802.16 워킹 그룹은 IEEE 802.16 표준을 2004년에 발표하였으며 이 IEEE 802.16 표준안에는 현재 WiMAX(Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access)라 불리는 고정 및 저속 이동 접속에 대한 광대역 무선 통신 지원 기술이 포함되어 있다. 특히 여러 기술 중 보안 관점에서 IEEE 802.16 표준은 MAC 계층 안에 PKM(Privacy Key Management)라고 불리는 Security Sub-layer를 가지고 있다. PKM은 PKMv1과 PKMv2로 구분되며, 먼저 PKMv1은 기본적인 인증 및 기밀성 기능을 제공하고 IEEE 802.16 표준에 기본적으로 적용되어있다. 하지만, IEEE 802.16 표준 이후 많은 연구들이 PKMv1의 보안성에 대하여 의문을 제기하였고 이에 따라 IEEE 802.16 표준안의 확장 개선안으로서 완전한 이동성을 바탕으로 하는 2005년 발표된 IEEE 802.16e 표준안에서는 향상된 보안 기능을 제공하는 PKMv2를 제공하며 기존 표준안의 부족한 점을 보완하기 위하여 시도하였다. 이러한 PKMv2는 EAP(Extensible Authentication Protocol) 인증, AES(Advanced Encryption Standard) 기반 기밀성 제공 알고리즘, CMAC/HMAC(Cipher/Hashed Message Authentication Code)을 사용한 메시지 인증 기능 제공 등 보다 다양한 보안 기능을 제공하였다. 그러나 IEEE 802.16e 표준안의 보안 기능은 SS(Subscriber Station)과 BS(Base Station)간의 통신구간 보안에 초점을 맞추어서 네트워크 도메인간의 보안 문제나 핸드오버시 보안과 같은 네트워크 구조적 보안 취약성을 여전히 가지고 있다. 하지만 표준안에서 정의하고 있는 SS와 BS 구간 보안 역시 완전한 솔루션을 제시하고 있지는 않다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 취약성을 고찰하고 그에 따른 대응방안을 제시하였다.
