We design and implement explicit mobile multicast, named XMIP, by enhancing explicit multicast for a great number of small group multicast communications. XMIP is a straightforward multicast mechanism without maintaining multicast states due to the inheritance from the explicit multicast based on a unicast routing. This research modifies and extends the functionality of each mobility agent of IETF Mobile IP for interworking XMIP XMIP Packets captured by an extended home agent are forwarded to each extended foreign agent through nested tunnels, named X-in-X tunnels, made by the binding table of the extended home agent. X-in-X tunneling mechanism can effectively solve the serious traffic concentration problems of Mobile IP multicast specifications. Finally heterogeneous mobile networks as an XMIP testbed including CDMA2000 1X EV-DO and WLAN are actually established, and a multi-user instant messenger system for small group communications is developed for verifying the feasibility of the proposed protocols.

IETF's Mobile IP protocol allows Mobile Node(MN) to keep connection to Correspondent Node(CN) no matter what the MN changes its point of attachment to the Internet. However, the protocol incurs triangle routing problem, because all packets for the MN are routed through its Home Agent(HA). Route optimization mechanism is proposed by IETF in order to resolve triangle routing problem, but it requires that any node in the Internet should also implement route optimization mechanism. In this paper, we propose a new route optimization algorithm. With the algorithm, routers between HA and CN are considered as Intermediate Agent(IA), and packets transmitted by CN are not forwarded to HA but intercepted by IA and tunneled to MN directly.

The study aim to test the effect of voice agent's preceding utterance type on the user experience in the smart home contexts by conversation types. Based on two types of conversation (task-oriented vs. relationship-oriented conversations) and two types of utterance (preceding vs. response utterances), four different scenarios were designed for experimental study. A total of 62 participants were divided into two groups by utterance type, and exposed to two scenarios of the conversation types. Likeability, psychological reactance, and perceived intelligence were measured for the user experience of conversational agent. The result showed main effects of likeability in task-oriented conversations, and of psychological reactance in preceding utterances. The interaction effect demonstrated that preceding conversation improved the likeabilitty and perceived intelligence in the task-oriented conversations.

In this paper, we describes the design of software architecture supporting for healthcare context information service platform based on multi agent in home environment. In this platform, the DOGF supports the execute object and healthcare sensors and device's logical services grouping. JADE framework can support mobility in heterogeneous environment. The multi agents on platform order to support a healthcare context information service it will be able to divide. An agent collects an environment information from distributed devices. Another an agent follows mobile-device specific and it does a different service. And an agent where it manages like this. The mobile-proxy&agent is an interface part between DOGF and JADE, support data interchange or mobility pattern. For DOGF and JADE to provide healthcare context information service, we describes the design of multi agent software platform and multi agent classification by services. Finally we showed the system environments which is physical environments and prototype based on platfonn for healthcare context information services.

Mobile IP Low Latency Handoffs(l) allow greater support for real-time services on a Mobile IP network by minimizing the period of time when a mobile node is unable to send or receive IP packets due to the delay in the Mobile IP Registration process. However, on Mobile IP network with AAA servers that are capable of performing Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting(AAA) services, every Registration has to be traversed to the home network to achieve new session keys, that are distributed by home AAA server, for a new Mobile IP session. This communication delay is the time taken to re-authentication the mobile node and to traverse between foreign and home network even if the mobile node has been previously authorized to old foreign agent. In order to reduce these extra time overheads, we present a method that performs Low Latency Handoffs without requiring further involvement by home AAA server. The method re-uses the previously assigned session keys. To provide confidentiality and integrity of session keys in the phase of key exchange between agents, it uses a key sharing method by gateway foreign agent that performs a trusted thirty party. The proposed method allows the mobile node to perform Low Latency Handoffs with fast as well as secure operation.

Mobile IP Low Latency Handoffs allow greater support for real-time services on a Mobile W network by minimizing the period of time when a mobile node is unable to send or receive IP packets due to the delay in the Mobile IP Registration process. However, on Mobile IP network with AAA servers that are capable of performing Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting(AAA) services, every Registration has to be traversed to the home network to achieve new session keys, that are distributed by home AAA server, for a new Mobile IP session. This communication delay is the time taken to re-authenticate the mobile node and to traverse between foreign and home network even if the mobile node has been previously authorized to old foreign agent. In order to reduce these extra time overheads, we present a method that performs Low Latency Handoffs without requiring funker involvement by home AAA server. The method re-uses the previously assigned session keys. To provide confidentiality and integrity of session keys in the phase of key exchange between agents, it uses a key sharing method by gateway foreign agent that Performs a ousted thirty party. The Proposed method allows the mobile node to perform Low Latency Handoffs with fast as well as secure operation

In this paper, we propose a novel hierarchical distributed intrusion detection system, named HNHDIDS(Home Network Hierarchical Distributed Intrusion Detection System), which is not only based on the structure of distributed intrusion detection system, but also fully consider the environment of secure home networks service. The proposed system is hierarchically composed of the one-class support vector machine(support vector data description) and local agents, in which it is designed for optimizing for the environment of secure home networks service. We support our findings with computer experiments and analysis.

Due to the growth of economy and the advancement of IT, the life expectancy has been prolonged and the interests in health have greatly increased. Recently the request for systems that enable measuring the bio-signals of patients in the non medical organizations, such as home, and transmitting them to medical staffs at remote sites for monitoring them. In this paper, we present an agent-based u-health system for patients or suspects with heart diseases. Our system consists of portable devices for measuring bio-signals and agents that perform data collection, data storage, automatic detection of abnormal status in patients, and HL7-based data exchange in a cooperative way. The main features of the system are : the agent-based architecture facilitates the addition of new service modules as well as the modification of existing ones; an intelligent agent is provided which automatically detects situations in which the bio-signals of patients are abnormal; the medical data standard is supported so that the communication with other systems is very easy. To our survey, there have been few previous systems which support all those features in a seamless way.

차세대 인터넷은 유.무선이 혼합된 초고속의 네트워크 구조에서 사용자가 시간과 장소에 관계없이 실시간 멀티미디어 서비스를 제공받을 수 있는 환경으로 변화될 것이다. 이 변화에 잘 대응하기 위해서는 이동하는 사용자에게 효율적으로 멀티캐스팅을 지원할 필요가 있다. Mobile IP 기반의 이동 네트워크 환경에서 멀티캐스팅을 지원하기 위만 연구는 크게 HA(Home Agent)기반 방식과 FA(Foreign Agent)기반 방식으로 연구되어 왔다. HA기반 방식은 데이터 전송 경로의 비최적화, 비효율적인 데이터 중복 전송의 문제를 가지고, FA기반 방식은 빈번한 멀티캐스트 전송 트리의 재구성으로 인한 오버헤드의 문제를 내포하고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 MH(Mobile Host)의 잦은 핸드오프(handoff) 문제를 해결하고, 멀티캐스트 전송 트리의 재구성으로 인한 오버헤드를 줄이는 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 계층적 트리 구조의 도메인을 구성하고 MFA(Multicast Forwarding Agent)와 홉 카운터로 정의된 MFA의 서비스 범위를 사용한다. 또한, MFA를 Root FA들 중에서 선택함으로써 멀티캐스트 전송 트리 재구성의 회수를 줄여 Mobile IP를 이용하는 MH에게 효과적인 멀티캐스팅을 제공한다.

무선 네트워크를 통해 인터넷에 접속하는 사용자들이 늘어나면서 이동 호스트들에게 무선 서비스를 제공하는 HA(home agent)나 FA(foreign agent)의 부하 또한 증가하고 있다. 특히 지역적 등록방법(regional registration)에서처럼 하나의 GFA(gateway foreien agent)가 도메인내의 모든 이동 호스트들을 담당할 경우 부하의 집중으로 인해 혼잡이나 지연 등의 문제가 발생하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 이 논문에서는 모든 FA들이 GFA의 기능을 가지는 분산된 네트워크 환경을 제안하고 이러한 환경에서 signaling 비용을 미리 계산하여 비용이 적은 쪽으로 위치등록을 수행함으로써 전체 signaling 비용을 줄이는 새로운 위치 관리 방법을 제안한다. 그리고 제안하는 방법이 효율적임을 증명하기 위해 signaling 비용 계산을 위한 비용함수를 제시하고 성능 평가를 통해 제안하는 방법이 유저의 이동 특성과 네트워크 환경에 따라 전체 signaling 비용을 줄이는 것을 보여준다.
