In this work we propose a universal pricing machine, which incorporates a universal pricing framework for the future IEEE802.16 WiMAX service with multiple classes of service. A multimedia service is provided by a QoS provisioning scheme in the WiMAX network and universal pricing means that it can compute the price for any type of service in a unified framework. In the proposed pricing framework we incorporate multiple types of services such as the real time and nonreal time services that are supposed to be provided in the WiMAX network. To that purpose, let us first carry out an analysis on the current pricing scheme of Korean WiMAX service which incorporates only the data size. From that analysis we propose a new pricing scheme for the future WiMAX service that provides different service classes in the network. Via numerical experiment, we verify the implication of the work.

In recent years, technology is rapidly changing to support new service consumption and distribution models in multimedia service systems and hybrid delivery of media services is a key factor for enabling next generation multimedia services. This phenomenon can lead to rapidly increasing network traffic and ultimately has a direct and aggravating effect on the user's quality of service (QOS). To address the issue, we propose a novel system architecture to provide smart hybrid media services efficiently. The architecture is designed to apply the software-defined networking (SDN) method, detect changes in traffic, and combine the data, including user data, service features, and computation node status, to provide a service schedule that is suitable for the current state. To this end, the proposed architecture is based on 2-level scheduling, where Level-1 scheduling is responsible for the best network path and a computation node for processing the user request, whereas Level-2 scheduling deals with individual service requests that arrived at the computation node. This paper describes the overall concept of the architecture, as well as the functions of each component. In addition, this paper describes potential scenarios that demonstrate how this architecture could provide services more efficiently than current media-service architectures.

In broadband convergence network(BcN), heterogeneous broadband wired & wireless subnetworks and various terminal equipments will be interconnected. In order to provide end-to-end realtime multimedia services on such heterogeneous networking environment, as a result, two major problems should be resolved: i) Multimedia session establishment & negotiation that adjusts the differences in the capability of multimedia data processing at the end terminal nodes, ii) quality of service(QoS)-guaranteed connection establishment or resource reservation with connection admission control(CAC) in each heterogeneous subnetworks along the path. The session layer signaling(e.g., SIP/SDP) should be extended for QoS negotiation, and must be tightly cooperating with network layer signaling or resource reservation with CAC function. In this paper we propose a session and connection management architecture for the QoS-guaranteed realtime multimedia service provisioning on BcN, with Q-SIP/SDP, resource reservation protocol with traffic engineering extension, and CAC functions. The detailed interaction scenario and related algorithms for QoS-guaranteed realtime multimedia session, resource reservation and connection establishment are explained and analyzed. From the experimental implementation of the proposed scheme on a small scale BcN testbed, we verified that the proposed architecture is applicable for the realtime multimedia service provisioning. We analyze the network performance and QoS parameters in detail.

In this paper we propose a Differentiated Services Based Admission Control and Routing Algorithm for IPv6 (ACMRA). The basic DiffServ architecture lacks an admission control mechanism, the injection of more QoS sensitive traffic into the network can cause congestion at the core of the network. Our Differentiated Services Based Admission Control and Routing Algorithm for IPv6 combines the admission control phase with the route finding phase, and our routing protocol has been designed in a way to work alongside DiffServ based networks. The Differentiated Services Based Admission Control and Routing Algorithm for IPv6 constructs label switched paths in order to provide rigorous QoS provisioning. We have conducted extensive simulations to validate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed admission control and routing algorithm. Simulation Results show that the Differentiated Services Based Admission Control and Routing Algorithm for IPv6 provides an excellent packet delivery ratio, reduces the control packets' overhead, and makes use of the resources present on multiple paths to the destination network, while almost each admitted flow shows compliance with its Service Level Agreement.

The key issue in providing fast and reliable access on cloud services is the effective management of resources in a cloud system. However, the high variation in cloud service access rates affects the system performance considerably when there are no default routines to handle this type of occurrence. Adaptive techniques are used in resource management to support robust systems and maintain well-balanced loads within the servers. This paper presents an adaptive resource management for cloud systems which supports the integration of intelligent methods to promote quality of service (QoS) in provisioning of cloud services. A technique of dynamically assigning cloud services to a group of cloud servers is proposed for the adaptive resource management. Initially, cloud services are collected based on the excess cloud services load and then these are deployed to the assigned cloud servers. The assignment function uses the proposed proportional ordering which efficiently assigns cloud services based on its resource consumption. The difference in resource consumption rate in all nodes is analyzed periodically which decides the execution of service assignment. Performance evaluation showed that the proposed dynamic service assignment (DSA) performed best in throughput performance compared to other resource allocation algorithms.

컴퓨팅 서비스가 언제 어디서나 이용 가능한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경을 구축하기 위해 해결해야하는 문제 중 하나는 다양한 특성의 서비스들을 어떻게 효과적으로 제공하고 이를 관리하느냐는 점이다. 기존에 제안된 유비쿼터스 서비스 제공 시스템은 특정 종류의 서비스만을 지원하는데 중점을 두고 있다. 또한 상황과 서비스의 관계 표현 방법이 복잡해 다양한 사용자가 생활하는 복잡한 공간에서 서비스를 제공하는데 어려움이 있다. 본 논문은 이런 문제에 대한 해결 방안으로 Personal Kiosk (PK) 모델을 제안한다. PK는 모바일 단말기를 통해 사용자가 언제 어디서나 유용한 서비스를 사용할 수 있게 해주는 것을 목표로 하는 유비쿼터스 서비스 모델이다. 현재 단계의 PK는 로컬지역을 대상으로 연구되고 있다. 본 논문은 로컬지역에 PK 모델을 구현하기 위해 필요한 실내에서의 정밀한 위치인식기법과 효과적인 서비스 발견기법을 설명하며 이를 바탕으로 사용자의 위치, 권한, 시간정보를 이용해 개인화된 서비스를 제공하는 방법을 설명한다. PK 모델은 서비스를 이용하기 위해 소모되는 사용자의 노력과 시간을 크게 감소시켜 보다 편리한 모바일 서비스 환경을 구축할 수 있게 한다.

Tactical networks are evolving into an All-IP based network for network centric warfare(NCW). Owing to the flexibility of IP based network, various military data applications including real-time and multi-media services are being integrated in tactical networks. Because each application has diverse Quality-of-service(QoS) requirements, it is crucial to develop a QoS provisioning method for guaranteeing QoS requirements efficiently. Conventionally, differentiated services(DiffServ) have been used to provide a different level of QoS for traffic flows. However, DiffServ is not designed to guarantee a specific requirement of QoS such as delay, loss, and bandwidth. Therefore, it is not suitable for military applications with a tight bound of QoS requirements. In this paper, we propose a multi-layer network virtualization scheme that allocates traffic flows having different QoS requirements to multiple virtual networks, which are constructed to support different QoS policies such as virtual network functions(VNFs), routing, queueing/active queue management(AQM), and physical layer policy. The experiment results indicate that the proposed scheme achieves lower delays and losses through multiple virtual networks having differentiated QoS policies in comparison with conventional networks.
