  • Source routing is the routing scheme that arranges the whole path from source to target at the origin node that may suit the requirements from the upper layer applications' perspective. The centralized control in SDN (Software-Defined Networking) networks enables the awareness of the global topology at the controller. Therefore, augmented source routing schemes can be designed to achieve various purposes. This paper proposes a source routing scheme that conducts the top-K QoS-aware paths discovery in SDN. First, the novel non-invasive QoS over LLDP scheme is designed to collect QoS information based on LLDP in a piggyback fashion. Then, variations of the KSP (K Shortest Paths) algorithm are derived to find the unconstrained/constrained top-K ranked paths with regard to individual/overall path costs, reflecting the Quality of Service. The experiment results show that the proposed scheme can efficiently collect the QoS information and find the top-K paths. Also, the performance of our scheme is applicable in QoS-sensitive application scenarios compared with previous works.

  • The goal of Medical multimedia server is to develop computer hardware and software which would enable electronic access, storage, transmission, and display of patient data and images. Since the current network only provides so called "best-effort" services, it is impossible to satisfy QoS guarantee that is required for real time application services for emergency room, operating room etc. Accordingly, world-wide research is being made for a variety of services to provide QoS. he goal of DiffServ is to offer scalable differentiated service in Internet which are made possible by traffic classification and conditioning only performed at an edge(or a boundary) node. In case DiffServ was deployed in the Medical multimedia network, it is difficult to estimate how the QoS mechanism would affect totally the network performance. Therefore, we need to verify by simulation the design of algorithm which provide a variety of differentiated services. In QoS for Medical multimedia network, a simulator is designed and implemented using OPNET to investigate the performance of DiffServ QoS support mechanism. The developed DiffServ simulator may generate packets according to random, and bursty traffic models in order to incorporate diverse traffic conditions in the Medical multimedia network environment. Based on our simulation results, we confirmed that service differentiation is possible by using the EF(Expedited Forwarding) class in DiffServ networks.

  • Since so many potentials of services, applications, marketing and regulation, it is difficult to decide the fair pricing scheme of network services. However, these considerations are not particular to the operation of a communications network, which is closely related to technological constraints for QoS guarantee. In this paper, the power spectral analysis of MPEG video based on the P-MMBBP model is discussed in the manner of the QoS degradation to the packet delay. As a consequence of the QoS-degradation, a new fair-pricing scheme with the discount factor is proposed. As a result, the proposed scheme shows good characteristics to guarantee the fairness of the charging in the Internet wide-area network.

  • There exist virtual machine scheduling delays in virtualized environment in which virtual machines share physical resources. Many resource management systems have been proposed to provide better application QoS through monitoring and analyzing application performance and resource utilization of virtual machines. However, those management systems don't consider virtual machine scheduling delays, result in incorrect application performance evaluation and QoS violations In this paper, we propose an application behavior analysis considering the scheduling delays, and a virtual machine priority allocation scheme based on the analysis to improve the application response time by minimizing the overall virtual machine scheduling delays.

  • On providing MPEG-2 video service through the ATM network, it is necessary for network provider to have the ATM QoS objectives in order to guarantee quality of service required by end users at the application layer. In this paper, the degradation of QoS caused by cell losses at application layer is assessed quantitatively by GIQ model considering AAL layer and is evaluated qualitatively by MOS from the viewpoint of the end users in order to analyze the relation between CLR and QoS of MPEG-2 video. From the simulation and empirical results, we know that CLR and $GIQ_{mean}$ for guaranteeing QoS of MOS grade 5(Excellent) are $CLR{\le}4{\times}10^7$ & $GIQ_{mean}{\ge}99.4%$ and those for guaranteeing QoS of MOS grade 4(Good) are $CLR{\le}2{\times}10^6$ & $GIQ_{mean}{\ge}99.705%$.

  • 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.

  • 그리드 컴퓨팅은 컴퓨팅 자원을 비용편익 측면에서 가장 효율적으로 만들 수 있는 능력을 가지고 있으며, 클러스터링 등의 기술로는 해결하기 어렵거나 시간이 오래 지체되어지는 대량의 컴퓨팅 능력을 요구하는 어려운 문제들을 풀기에 더 없이 좋은 방법 중에 하나이다. 이러한 그리드 컴퓨팅을 효율적으로 수행하기 위해서 지리적으로 분산되어 있는 고성능 컴퓨팅 자원을 실시간으로 상호 연결하기 위해 Grid Application이 필요하게 되었고 이에 미국의 ANL(Argonne National Laboratory)를 주축으로 하여 여러 대학의 연구진에 의해 Globus가 만들어지게 되었다. 그러나. 이러한 Globus상에서 Grid Application을 실행시켜 일정의 Job을 네트워크를 통하여 주고받을 때, QoS가 보장되지 않는 문제점이 발견되었다. 그리하여 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 GARA(Globus Architecture for Reservation and Allocation)가 ANL에 의해서 개발 되었고, 본 논문은 이러한 GARA의 성능을 테스트 하기 위하여 Testbed를 구성하여 GARA의 자원 예약 명령을 통해 자원을 예약을 수행하고, 그에 따른 적용 결과 및 추후 연구방향에 대하여 논하였다.

  • 팍스시스템은 의료 영상을 디지탈화한 시스템이다. PACS데이터는 초창기 CR(Computed Radiography)의 경우 10MB내외의 데이터를 발생하였으나 의료장비의 발전으로 인해 DB(Digital Radiography)는 20MB이상의 데이터를 발생하였다. 또 CT(Computed Tomography)의 경우 0.5MB데이터를 100Slice내외의 데이터를 발생하였으나, 현재는 Cardiac/PET 등의 CT는 Multi Frame을 지원하며 300~5000Slice이상의 데이터를 발생하게 됨에 따라 네트워크에 상당한 트래픽이 발생하여 병원 진료 환경에 심각한 영향을 초래한다. 또한, 스마트 폰, 태블릿 pc등의 발전으로 인해 많은 사용자들은 실시간 또는 멀티미디어와 같은 데이터 표현 방식으로 팍스 데이터를 보길 원할 것이며, 팍스 시스템 또한 그러한 요구조건을 만족시키기 위해 발전하고 있다. 병원에서 사용하는 네트워크는 인터넷 서비스의 모토인 best effort방법을 일반적으로 사용한다. 이러한 데이터 전송방식은 진료에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 팍스 데이터의 전송에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 특히 네트워크의 트래픽이 제한적인 환경에서 높은 대역폭을 요구하는 멀티미디어 팍스 데이터를 다수의 사용자들이 전송받기 원하면 지연시간으로 인해 원활한 진료진행을 방해 받을 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 네트워크 개발자들은 QoS라는 개념을 도입하였고, 여러 계층에서 QoS를 보장하기 위한 연구가 진행되였다. 일반적으로, 네트워크에서 QoS를 지원하기 위한 여러가지 형태의 연구들을 조사하고, 분산 시스템을 제어하기 위한 DDS 미들웨어에 대한 연구를 기반으로 병원 네트워크에서 적용 방안을 설계하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증함으로써 새로운 형태의 병원 네트워크를 제안하고자 한다.

  • The sensor node's performance is expected to be improved and the price will be largely decreased. As USN-applied field is expanded, multiple application services are expected to be provided through one USN soon. Multiple applications be required a periodic data reporting, consecutive information monitoring, event-driven data and query-based data as the data pattern that USN is delivered. Accordingly, the mechanism which can assure QoS according to each data characteristic is required. In this paper, A proposed protocol apply the duty cycle of S-MAC protocol variably and flexible according QoS level. This method largely reduces the delay on the delay-sensitive traffic, while keeping the energy efficiency.

  • Most of the existing broadband access networks based on DSL, cable modem, and Ethernet support the best-effort internet access service, and adopt the flat rate pricing mechanism. It is almost impossible to provide the differentiated communication services, in current broadband access networks, for the different users and/or the different application services. Currently, however, the advances in multimedia, communication, and security technologies push the interactive and/or streaming multimedia services and VPN services to be widely deployed over Internet, and they require more QoS-sensitive services than the best-effort service. Though various QoS technologies such as RSVP-based IntServ and DiffSern were already developed and under standardization in Internet world, it is impractical to replace the existing QoS-unaware access networks with the QoS-enabled ones at a time to deploy QoS-sensitive services. In this paper, after analyzing current broadband access network architectures and the status of QoS support, we propose a practical approach to support multimedia QoS in the broadband access networks. The approach will be based on the integration of the differentiated pricing and the DiffServ technology. And it will be a step-wise approach to support backward compatibility with the legacy broadband access networks as much as possible.
