This paper proposes an algorithm that enables mobile nodes to implement self-regulated movements in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs). It is important for mobile nodes to maintain a certain level of network-based stability by harmonizing these nodes' movements autonomously due to their limited transmission range and dynamic topology. Entropy methods based on relative position are suggested, as a means for mobile nodes to regulate their local movements. Simulations show that an early warning mechanism is suitable to maintain movement-based stability. Isolation can be reduced by 99%, with an increased network cost of 12% higher power consumption, using the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a home-networking service using mobile phone and ZigBee module. Recently, ZigBee is widely used for various applications due to its characteristics. Especially, it is generally adopted for home network services. We propose a new home network service model using mobile phones. In the proposed architecture, the mobile phones are connected to conventional home network appliances using ZigBee dongle. Also, several servers are implemented for service management. We implement the whole components of the proposed architecture and show the validity of the proposed method. With the proposed service structure, it is expected to provide various ubiquitous services for the user.

Base on the development of mobile communication, the future mobile communication systems were expected to provide higher quality of multimedia services for users than today's systems. Therefore, many technical factors are needed in this systems. Especially these secrecy and the safety would be obtained through the introduction of the security for mobile communication. In this paper, we presents weaknesses and propose required properties in mobile communication. Based on those proposed properties, we propose a new 'call set-up' and 'hand-off' protocol for authentication and key distribution. Also we compare between the proposed scheme and conventional schemes.

Inthis paper, we present an efficient migration strategy of mobile agent for data mining application. The purpose of the proposed algorithm is to set up the best migration plan of mobile agent with regard to minimizing network execution time .In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, we designed a performance evaulation model for three paradigms from data mining, i.e. RPC, mobile agent and mobile agent with locker pattern, and we then evaluated the algorithm by simulation.

In this paper, we propose a method to apply a decentralized control algorithm for passive velocity field control using virtual flywheel system to cooperative 3-wheeled mobile robots, and these subsystem are under nonholonomic constraints. The considered robotic systems convey a common rigid object in a horizontal plain. Moreover we will proof the passivity and robustness for cooperative mobile robotic systems with decentralized passive velocity field control. Finally, The effectiveness of proposed control algorithm is examined by numerical simulation for cooperation tasks with 3-wheeled mobile robot systems.

The popularization of streaming networks and mobile devices brings a new kind of network called mobile peer-assisted streaming network. In this network, service provider not only offers downloading services, but also pre-pushes resources to users for caching. Users can download their demanded resources while working as servers for uploading the cached data. Also the mobile characteristic makes high package losing probability in this network. So we study how the service provider pre-pushes or the user downloads resources efficiently and effectively while considering the package losing in this paper. We build utility models for service provider and user, and solve the models using Bellman's theory to achieve Nash Equilibrium which shows the service provider's optimal pre-pushing speed and user's optimal downloading speed. The numerical simulation demonstrates the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed pre-pushing and downloading scheme by comparing to the traditional scheme.

A method to detect Trojan horses in messaging and Bluetooth in mobile phones by means of monitoring the events produced by the infections is presented in this paper. The structure of the detection approach is split into two modules: the first is the Monitoring module which controls connection requests and sent/received files, and the second is the Graphical User module which shows messages and, under suspicious situations, reports the user about a possible malware. Prototypes have been implemented on different mobile operating systems to test its feasibility on real cellphone malware. Experimental results are shown to be promising since this approach effectively detects various known malware.

In this paper, we propose an extended Kalman filter(EKF)-based simultaneous localization and mapping(SLAM) method using laser corner pattern matching for mobile robots. SLAM is one of the most important problems of mobile robot. However, existing method has the disadvantage of increasing the computation time, depending on the number of landmarks. To improve computation time, we produce the corner pattern using classified and detected corner points. After producing the corner patterns, it is estimated that mobile robot's global position by matching them. The estimated position is used as measurement model in the EKF. To evaluated proposed method, we preformed the experiments in the indoor environments. Experimental results of proposed method are shown to maintain an accuracy and decrease the computation time.

In this paper, we propose an output feedback tracking control method for the wheeled mobile robots with kinematic disturbances. The kinematic disturbances should be compensated to avoid the performance degradation. Also, the unavailable velocity of the mobile robot should be estimated. These should be estimated together by designing the nonlinear observer. Based on these estimates, the output feedback controller can be designed. The stability of the mobile robot control systems using the proposed method is rigorously analyzed and the simulation results are also provided to validate the proposed method.

In order to navigate the mobile robots safely in unknown environments, many researches have been studied to devise navigational algorithms for the mobile robots. In this paper, we propose a navigational algorithm that consists of an obstacle-avoidance behavior module, a goal-approach behavior module and a radial basis function network(RBFN) supervisor. In the obstacle-avoidance behavior module and goal-approach behavior module, the fuzzy-artificial immune networks are used to select a proper steering angle which makes the autonomous mobile robot(AMR) avoid obstacles and approach the given goal. The RBFN supervisor is employed to combine the obstacle-avoidance behavior and goal-approach behavior for reliable and smooth motion. The outputs of the RBFN are proper combinational weights for the behavior modules and velocity to steer the AMR appropriately. Some simulations and experiments have been conducted to confirm the validity of the proposed navigational algorithm.
