  • SM 프로젝트는 SI 프로젝트와 달리 고객의 요청 사항(CSR)이 있을 때 마다 개발 계획을 세우고 관리를 하여야 하며 동시에 고객의 개발 요청 내용 외에도 운영업무에 대한 계획도 같이 세워 져야 한다. 하지만 대부분의 SM 프로젝트에서는 한 두 사람의 경험이나 판단으로 계획이 작성, 할당되며 운영업무에 대한 계획의 정확도도 떨어져 업무 load balancing 이 잘 되지 않는다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제 해결을 위해 효과적인 SM 프로젝트에서의 EFFROT ESTIMATION 프로세스를 제안하여 업무 load balancing 을 이루는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

  • Pervasive enhancement and required enforcement of the Internet of Things (IoTs) in a distributed massively multiplayer online architecture have effected in massive growth of Big-Data in terms of server over-load. There have been some previous works to overcome the overloading of server works. However, there are lack of considered methods, which is commonly applicable. Therefore, we propose a combing Sparse Auto-Encoder and Load-Balancing, which is ProGReGA for Big-Data of server loads. In the process of Sparse Auto-Encoder, when it comes to selection of the feature-pattern, the less relevant feature-pattern could be eliminated from Big-Data. In relation to Load-Balancing, the alleviated degradation of ProGReGA can take advantage of the less redundant feature-pattern. That means the most relevant of Big-Data representation can work. In the performance evaluation, we can find that the proposed method have become more approachable and stable.

  • Critical issues such as connection congestion, long transmission delay, and packet loss become even worse during epidemic, disaster, and so on. In this study, a link load balancing method is proposed to address these issues on the data plane, a plane of the software-defined network (SDN) architecture. These problems are NP-complete, so a meta-heuristic approach, discrete particle swarm optimization, is used with a novel hybrid cost function. The superiority of the proposed method over existing methods in the literature is that it provides link and switch load balancing simultaneously. The goal is to choose a path that minimizes the connection load between the source and destination in multipath SDNs. Furthermore, the proposed work is dynamic, so selected paths are regularly updated. Simulation results prove that with the proposed method, streams reach the target with minimum time, no loss, low power consumption, and low memory usage.

  • Long-Term Evolution employs a hard handover procedure. To reduce the interruption of data flow, downlink data is forwarded from the serving eNodeB (eNB) to the target eNB during handover. In cellular networks, unbalanced loads may lead to congestion in both the radio network and the backhaul network, resulting in bad end-to-end performance as well as causing unfairness among the users sharing the bottleneck link. This work focuses on congestion in the transport network. Handovers toward less loaded cells can help redistribute the load of the bottleneck link; such a mechanism is known as load balancing. The results show that the introduction of such a handover mechanism into the simulation environment positively influences the system performance. This is because terminals spend more time in the cell; hence, a better reception is offered. The utilization of load balancing can be used to further improve the performance of cellular systems that are experiencing congestion on a bottleneck link due to an uneven load.

  • Panel line is an important process occupying the largest work amount in shipbuilding. In this research product simulation has been carried out to establish the optimal production scheduling. For this purpose a web-based panel line simulator was developed using an object modeling technology and C# language. The balance of work-load and increase in the productivity by the improvement of production facilities and process are the key factors for a good scheduling. In this study SPRT(Shortest Remaining Process Time) rule was applied for the work-load balancing and a good result achieved. To increase the productivity in the stiffener welding stage which is a bottleneck; process, more welding heads and higher welding speed were tested using the developed simulator. The simulation results showed that either more welding head or higher welding speed decreased the total work time. Use of both, however, deteriorated the productivity because of the bottleneck in the following stage. This result points out that the improvement of production facilities and/or process should be evaluated with their influences on the leading and following processing stage.

  • This paper introduces a load-balancing algorithm focusing on distributing web requests evenly into the web cluster servers. The load-balancing algorithms based on conventional periodic load-information update mechanism are not suitable for dynamic page applications, which are common in Cyber Foraging services, due to the problems caused by periodic synchronized load-information updating and the difficulties of work load estimation caused by embedded executing scripts of dynamic pages. Update-on-Finish algorithm solves this problem by using non-periodic load-update mechanism, and the web switch knows the servers' real load information only after their reporting and then distributes new loads according to the new load-information table, however it results in much communication overhead. Our proposed mechanism improve update-on-finish algorithm by using K-Percents-Finish mechanism and thus largely reduce the communication overhead. Furthermore, we consider the different capabilities of servers with a threshold Ti value and propose a load-balancing algorithm for servers with various capabilities. Simulation results show that the proposed K-Percents-Finish Reporting mechanism can at least reduce 50% communication overhead than update-on-finish approach while sustaining better load balancing performance than periodic mechanisms in related work.

  • Typically a wireless sensor network consists of a number of nodes that sense surrounding environment and collaboratively work to process and route the sensing data to a sink or gateway node. We propose an architecture with support of multiple routers in IPv6-based Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network (6LoWPAN). Our architecture provides traffic load balancing and increases network lifetime as well as self-healing mechanism so that in case of a router failure the network still can remain operational. Each router sends its own Router Advertisement message to nodes and all the nodes receiving the messages can select which router is the best router with the minimum hop-count and link information. We have implemented the architecture and assert our architecture helps in traffic load balancing and reducing data transmission delay for 6LoWPAN.

  • This paper proposes a new fault restoration method which adopts the recloser as top agent to release the problems of the data concentration and fault processing delay of the existing DAS(distribution Automation System) under the ubiquitous distribution system. In proposed method, top agent collects the data based on the multi-casting communication with the tie switches of the interconnection point, and then selects a closed switch(tie switch) to transfer the sound outage load to other feeders based on the heuristic search strategy step by step until the load transfer work is finished. Here, a new heuristic rule is developed which can guarantee the relational load balancing and line loss from the collected voltage data. Finally, the several faults are simulated for typical multi-section and multi-interconnection distribution system to prove the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, in particular, for each simulation cases, the load balancing index and line loss index of the obtained solution from the proposed method is compared with those of all of feasible solutions.

  • To realize high-speed intrusion detection by accommodating many regular expression (regex)-based signatures and growing network link capacities, we propose the Service TimE-Aware Load-balancing (STEAL) algorithm. This work is motivated from the observation that utilization of a many-core network intrusion detection system (NIDS) is influenced by unfair computational distribution among many-core NIDS nodes. To avoid such unfair computational distribution, STEAL is designed to dynamically distribute a large volume of traffic among many-core NIDS nodes based on packet service time, which is represented by the deep packet time in many-core NIDS nodes. From experiments, we show that compared to the commonly used load-balancing algorithm based on arrival rate, STEAL increases the number of received packets (i.e., decreases the number of dropped packets) in many-core NIDS. Specifically, by integrating an open source NIDS (i.e. Bro) with STEAL, we show that even under attack-dominant traffic and with many signatures, STEAL can rapidly improve the performance of many-core NIDS to realize high-speed intrusion detection.

  • In distributed systems like cluster systems, in order to get more performance improvement, the initial task placement system precisely estimates and correctly assigns the resource requirement by the process. The resource-based initial job placement scheme needs the prediction of resource usage of a task in order to fit it to the most suitable hosts. However, the wrong prediction of resource usage causes serious performance degradation in dynamic load balancing systems. Therefore, in this paper, to resolve the problem due to the wrong prediction, we propose a new load metric. By the new load metric, the resource-based initial job placement scheme can work without priori knowledge about the type of process. Simulation results show that the dynamic load balancing system using the proposed approach achieves shorter execution times than the conventional approaches.
