  • In this paper, we introduce a method of graphic offloading computing using a GPU virtualization technology in order to provide high demanding software like 3D software as an on-line software service. When the offloading software is executed on server's software virtualization environment, its graphic works are processed on a client's GPU using GPU virtualization, while on the other its data works are processed on server's CPU. To do that, we propose a method of rendering graphics information on client side GPU using API Remoting method. Also, we show the better performance than server based rendering method when we serve offloading software which include dynamical 3D graphics that display images are frequently changed through on-line. Moreover, we describe a method to virtualize offloading software by a process level and manage client's configuration information in order to decrease server's load when we provide software service to multiple clients.

  • Server consolidation and virtualization have become an integral part of IT planning to reduce TCO cost and ensure the high availability for customer, enlarge the flexibility to computing resource in today' enterprise data centers. In spite of having the variety advantages of server consolidation and virtualization, they cause many problems such as the software licensing issues, virtual server sprawl, network complexity issues, hardware start-up costs, and failover costs. In particular, software licensing problem brings about the serious results in operating of data center and also presents a significant challenge to virtualization because many vendors have realized that licensing policies applicable to physical systems are not compatible with virtual machines. So, the IT planers must be considering this problem before they conducts the server consolidation and virtualization. In this paper, we proposed the efficiency strategy of SW licensing for server consolidation and virtualization analyzing the N-Datacenter case in Korea. As a result, we suggest the two strategies as technical and management/contract aspect. First, as the technical aspect, we propose i) the adaptation of suitable licensing for virtualization, ii) differentiation of license according to the characteristics of server, iii) the core distribution of licenses to minimizing. Second, as the management/contract aspect, we suggest following three things. i) The existing license agreement is changed to the right licensing for virtualization. ii) The license agreement is contracts the active focused. iii) When a new contract should be added to virtualization provisions.

  • Network virtualization technologies have played efficient roles in deploying cloud, Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and 5G network. We have conducted a survey on network virtualization technologies, such as software-defined networking (SDN), network functions virtualization (NFV), and network virtualization overlay (NVO). For each of technologies, we have explained the comprehensive architectures, applied technologies, and the advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, this paper has provided a summarized view of the latest research works on challenges and solutions of security issues mainly focused on DDoS attack and encryption.

  • When replacing hardware due to obsolescence, discontinuation, and expansion of software-equipped electronic equipment, software changes are required in the past, but if virtualization technology is applied, it can be applied without software changes. In this regard, we studied in order to apply virtualization technology in the development of naval multi-function radar signal processing, we studied hardware and OS independency for Docker and performance comparison between Docker and virtual machine. As a result, it was confirmed that hardware and OS independence exist when using Docker and that high-speed processing is possible compared to the virtual machine.

  • Virtualization technology supports the execution of software unrelated to the hardware environment through the decoupling of software and hardware. Additionally, it enables network slicing, allowing one physical device to be divided and used by a function or service by supporting sharing with isolation. Virtualization enables flexible platform use, allowing a variety of services to be launched without changes or additions to the hardware platform. We describe virtualization technology trends in satellite/mobile communication systems. Basic concepts and technical definitions are included, and the current status of research and development by domestic and foreign organizations, including the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute, is analyzed. Finally, future prospects and implications are discussed.

  • Cloud computing has recently become a significant technology trend in the IT field. Among the related technologies, desktop virtualization has been applied to various commercial applications since it provides many advantages, such as lower maintenance and operation costs and higher utilization. However, the existing solutions offer a very limited performance for 3D graphics applications. Therefore, we propose a novel method in which rendering commands are not executed at the host server but rather are delivered to the client through the network and are executed by the client's graphics device. This method prominently reduces server overhead and makes it possible to provide a stable service at low cost. The results of various experiments prove that the proposed method outperforms all existing solutions.

  • Recently, software has taken up an increasing share of the weapons system. The software development environment is also becoming very diverse. In the field of weapons software, software technical documents, source codes, and execution files are standardized as defense standards material. Through defense standards, the software file lists and development environments for creating software execution files are required to be documented. However, additional efforts to rebuild the software development environment are needed to recreate the software execution file based on defense standards material after the end of R&D. Therefore, in this study, we propose an improvement method for the quality of software standards material using virtualization technology. This is expected to reduce efforts to rebuild the software development environment and solve problems caused by discontinuation of the development environment.

  • In the fourth industrial revolution era triggered by the popularization of smart phones, Human daily life and all industrial sites are becoming software and intelligent. With the universal software education for all students nationwide from 2018, Demand is surging, and hardware is interlocked using software technology and Arduino. However, expensive control boards and dozens of different electronic components have to be prepared separately and problems are occurring. In addition, if the same training is repeated, Significantly many parts are lost or destroyed. Being prepared to start a new class is also becoming a very serious problem. In this study, we implement VR technology based on virtualization technology of Arduino board and various electronic parts. In addition, 3D graphics realistic Arduino kit and various electronic components are provided in API form. In this paper, we propose a method of interworking software and virtual hardware on virtualization base.

  • In recent years, dense small cell network has been deployed to address the challenge that has resulted from the unprecendented growth of mobile data traffic and users. It has proven to be a cost efficeient solution to offload traffic from macro-cells. Software defined heterogeneous wireless network can decouple the control plane from the data plane. The control signal goes through the macro-cell while the data traffic can be offloaded by small cells. In this paper, we propose a framework for cell virtualization and user association in order to satisfy versatile requirements of multiple tenants. In the proposed framework, we propose an interference graph partioning based virtual-cell association and customized physical-cell association for multi-homed users in a software defined small cell network. The proposed user association scheme includes 3 steps: initialization, virtual-cell association and physical-cell association. Simulation results show that the proposed virtual-cell association outperforms the other schemes. For physical-cell association, the results on resource utilization and user fairness are examined for mobile users and infrastructure providers.
