VoIP(Voice over Internet Protocol) 서비스는 기존의 음성전화 서비스(Public Switched Telephone Network, PSTN)와 달리 IP 프로토콜을 이용한 저렴한 통신비용 등의 장점이 있는 음성통신 기술로써, 기존의 아날로그 음성전화 서비스를 대신하는 서비스이며, 새로운 인터넷 융합서비스로 많은 사용자가 이용하고 있다. 하지만 VoIP 서비스가 인터넷망을 이용함으로 IP Spoofing, DoS (Denial of Server) / DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service), 등의 여러 가지 보안의 문제점을 가지고 있다. VoIP 서비스에서 DDoS 공격은 Proxy 서버 등에 대량의 공격 메시지를 보냄으로써 서버의 자원을 고갈시켜 정상적인 서비스를 하지 못하게 한다. DoS, DDoS 공격 중 Invite Flooding 공격은 1분에 수천 개의 Invite 메시지를 보내 회선의 자원을 고갈시키는 공격이다. 특히 IP/Port 위조하여 공격 경우 공격 패킷 탐지하기 어려우므로 차단할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 VoIP의 DoS/DDoS 중 하나인 Invite Flooding 공격 시 SIP Proxy Server에서 메시지 분산시키는 방법과 MAC Address와 사용자 번호 등 IP 이외의 고정적인 사용자 정보를 확인하여 공격을 탐지하고, 공격 Agent에 감염된 Phone을 공격차단서비스로 보내 복구시키는 방법을 제안한다.

The General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) is being deployed by GSM network operators world-wide, and promises to provide users with “always-on” data access at bandwidths comparable to that of conventional fixed-wire telephone modems. However, many users have found the reality to be rather different, experiencing very disappointing performance when, for example, browsing the web over GPRS. In this paper, we examine the causes, and show how unfortunate interactions between the GPRS link characteristics and TCP/IP protocols lead to poor performance. A performance characterization of the GPRS link-layer is presented, determined through extensive measurements taken over production networks. We present measurements of packet loss rates, bandwidth availability, link stability, and round-trip time. The effect these characteristics have on TCP behavior are examined, demonstrating how they can result in poor link utilization, excessive packet queueing, and slow recovery from packet losses. Further, we show that the HTTP protocol can compound these issues, leading to dire WWW performance. We go on to show how the use of a transparent proxy interposed near the wired-wireless border can be used to alleviate many of these performance issues without requiring changes to either client or server end systems.

In this paper, we propose a handover scheme for seamless mobile multicast service in next generation access networks. For this, we drew optimum handover scheme when applying MIP(mobile IP), FMIP(Fast MIP), HMIP(Heterogeneous MIP), PMIP(Proxy MIP) to XG-PON1. And, we analyze handover scheme for seamless mobile multicast service in XG-PON1. The prosed handover scheme remove tunnel convergence and reduces handover delay, packet delivery cost.

With the recent increase in the types of services provided by Internet companies, collection of various types of data has become a necessity. Data collectors corresponding to web services profit by collecting users' data indiscriminately and providing it to the associated services. However, the data provider remains unaware of the manner in which the data are collected and used. Furthermore, the data collector of a web service consumes web resources by generating a large amount of web traffic. This traffic can damage servers by causing service outages. In this study, we propose a website search engine that employs a system that controls user information using blockchains and builds its database based on the recorded information. The system is divided into three parts: a collection section that uses proxy, a management section that uses blockchains, and a search engine that uses a built-in database. This structure allows data sovereigns to manage their data more transparently. Search engines that use blockchains do not use internet bots, and instead use the data generated by user behavior. This avoids generation of traffic from internet bots and can, thereby, contribute to creating a better web ecosystem.

Due to the large sizes of streaming media, previous delivery techniques are not providing optimal performance. For this purpose, video proxy server is employed for reducing the bandwidth consumption, network congestion, and network traffic. This paper proposes a fast distributed network file system using state transition model in the media streaming system for efficient utilization of video proxy server. The proposed method is composed of three steps: step 1. Training process using state transition model, step 2. base and decision probability generation, and step 3. storing and deletion based on probability. In addition, storage space of video proxy server is divided into each segment area in order to store the segments efficiently and to avoid the fragmentation. The simulation results show that the proposed method performs better than other methods in terms of hit rate and number of deletion. Therefore, the proposed method provides the lowest user start-up latency and the highest bandwidth saving significantly.

Deploying advanced home networking technologies and modern home-networked devices in residential environments provides a playground for new home applications and services. Because home multimedia entertainment is among the most essential home applications, this paper presents an appealing home media content sharing scenario: home-networked devices can discover neighboring devices and share local media content, as well as enormous amounts of Internet media content in a convenient and networked manner. This ideal scenario differs from traditional usages that merely offer local media content and require tedious manual operations of connection setup and file transfer among various devices. To achieve this goal, this study proposes a proxy gateway architecture for home multimedia content distribution. The proposed architecture integrates several functional mechanisms, including UPnP-based device discovery, home gateway, Internet media provision, and in-home media content delivery. This design addresses several inherent limitations of device heterogeneity and network interoperability on home and public networks, and allows diverse home-networked devices to play media content in an identical and networked manner. Prototypical implementation of the proposed proxy gateway architecture develops a proof-of-concept software, integrating a BitTorrent peer-to-peer client, a UPnP protocol stack, and a UPnP AV media server, as well as media distribution and management components on the OSGi home gateway platform. Practical demonstration shows the proposed design and scenario realization, offering users an unlimited volume of media content for home multimedia entertainment.

The internet telephony service is one of the successful internet application services. VoIP is the key technology for the service to come true. VoIP uses H.323 or SIP as the standard protocol for the distributed multimedia services over the internet environment, in which QoS is not guaranteed. VoIP carries the packetized voice by using the RTP/UDP/IP protocol stack. The UDP-based internet services cause the data transmission problem to the users behind the internet firewall. So does the internet telephony service. The users are not able to listen the voices of the counter-parts on the public internet or PSTN. It makes the problem more difficult that the internet telephony service addressed in this paper uses only one UDP port number to send the voice data of all sessions from gateway to terminal node. In this paper, two schemes including the usage of dummy UDP datagrams, and the protocol conversion are suggested. The implementation of one of the schemes, the protocol conversion, and the performance evaluation are described in detail.

A wireless Internet proxy server cluster has to Distillation and Caching functions in order that a user on wireless internet can use existing wired internet service. Distillation function works to distill HTML documents and included images according to the defined preference by a user. When a user requests repeatedly, Caching function decreases response time by reusing original and distilled images or HTML documents. In this paper, we proposed enhanced distillation and caching functions. We performed experiments using 16 PCs and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed system compared to the existing system.

In the next generation wireless mobile network, various methods are studied to offer interworking and mobility between various radio networks. To offer these harmoniously, network adaptation methods based on IP is generalized, and specifications of host-based mobility method with Mobile IPv4 and Mobile IPv6 to offer IP's mobility are defined in IETF specially. However, it is insufficient to satisfy quality of service that should be offered in wireless mobile network environment. Alternatively studies about Network-Based Mobility of Proxy Mobile IPv4, Proxy Mobile IPv6 etc. are preceded. This paper presents optimum plan that can offer mobility in the next generation radio transfer communication network by comparing and analyzing IP mobility methods divided by Host-based Mobility and Network-based Mobility.
