We propose an Agent-based Fault Tolerant Object Group model based on the agent technology and FTOG model with replication mechanism for effective object management and fault recovery. We define the five kind of agents - internal processing agent, registration agent, state handling agent, user interface agent, and service agent - that extend the functions of the FTOG model. The roles of the agents in the proposed model are to reduce the remote interactions between distributed objects and provide more effective service execution. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed model, we implemented the Intelligent Home Network Simulator (IHNS) which virtually provides general home networking services. Through the simulations, it is validated that the proposed model decreases the interactions of the object components and supports the effective fault recovery, while providing more stable and reliable services.

In the non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating solution using thiomalic acid as a complexing agent and aminoethanethiol as a reducing agent, analysis of each component constituting the plating solution is essential for the analysis of the reaction mechanism. And component analysis in the plating solution is important for monitoring component changes in the plating process and optimizing the management method. Capillary Electrophoresis (CE) method is rapid, sensitive and quantitative and could be readily applied to analysis of Auⁿ⁺ ion, complexing agent and reducing agent in electroless Au plating solution. In this study, the capillary electrophoresis method was used to analyze each component in the electroless Au plating solution in order to elucidate the complex bonding form and the plating mechanism of the non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating bath. The purpose of this study was to establish data for optimizing the monitoring and management method of plating solution components to improve the uniformity of precipitation and stability. As a result, it was confirmed that the analysis of thiomalic acid as a complexing agent and Auⁿ⁺ ions and the analysis of aminoethanethiol as a reducing agent were possible by capillary electrophoresis. In the newly developed non-cyanide-based electroless Au plating solution, it was confirmed that Auⁿ⁺ ions exist in the form of Au⁺ having a charge of +1, and that thiomalic acid and Au⁺ are combined in a molar ratio of 2 : 1. In addition, it was confirmed that aminoethanethiol can form a complex by combining with Au⁺ ions depending on conditions as well as acting as a reducing agent.

본 논문에서는 SNMP를 이용한 Nerwork Management System(NMS)이 Network을 사용하는 Application에 영향을 주지 않도록 하는 Polling 전략과 Model을 설계하였다. 제안된 System은 Network의 각 Client 정보를 처리하는 Agent와 Data 수집 및 제어를 담당하는 Server로 구성된다. Agent는 SNMP Agent 부분과 Network 상태를 Monitoring 하는 SubManager로 구성되어, Server는 SNMP Agent와의 Polling 및 Polling 정책을 결정하는 부분으로 구성된다. 제안 Model은 SNMP를 이용한 NMS를 도입할 경우, 기존 Network Service에 영향을 주지 않도록 하는 것이 목적이다. 제안된 System에 대한 성능평가를 위해 실존하는 Network을 대상으로 SNMP의 Polling 및 Service의 부하량을 측정하였다.

인터넷 우편 시스템은 기존의 우편시스템을 인터넷이라는 공용 망을 이용해서 재구성함으로서 우체국 업무의 효율성은 물론, 사용자의 편이에도 상당한 도움이 될 것이다. 인터넷 우편 시스템은 크게 3가지로 Front Agent(웹 기반의 사용자 인터페이스), End Agent(우체국), Management Agent(관리부) 나뉘어 지는데 본 논문에서는 EndAgent를 중심으로 서술하였다.

PURPOSES : This study aims at proposing the methodology for benefit evaluations in pavement maintenance methods and timings using KoPMS(Korean Pavement Management System) software which was developed for efficient pavement management. METHODS : This study classified pavement sections into 4 clusters considering AADT(Annual Average Daily Traffic) and ESAL(Equivalent Single-Axle Load) using cluster analysis and used the deterioration models in each cluster. Increased user costs due to pavement deterioration as time goes by and agent costs for maintenance were estimated. Based on deterioration model and KoPMS software, Methodology for benefit evaluation was proposed in pavement maintenance methods and with/without implementation using real pavement section data. RESULTS : This study verified that considering agent costs only would be constrained to decide pavement maintenance methods and timings, and ascertained that decision making with agent and user costs would be effective. In addition, this study revealed that pavement maintenance methods and timings can be affected by AADT and ESAL and frequent pavement maintenances can be more efficient for benefits in pavement sections with more AADT and ESAL. Also this study found that user costs would be more affected to decision making than agent costs. Moreover, Delay of conducting pavement maintenance caused increased vehicle operating costs and environmental costs because of poor conditions of pavements. CONCLUSIONS : This study proposed LCCA and benefit estimation methodology of pavement with considering agent and user costs. The results of this study can be used for baseline data of efficient pavement asset management.

As the logistic environment of digital contents is rapidly changing, the protection of the digital rights for digital content has been recognized as one of critical Issues. Digital Right Management(DRM) has taken much interest Internet Service Provider(ISP), authors and publishers of digital content as an interested approach to create a trusted environment for access and use of digital resources. This paper propose an interested digital rights protection scheme using license agent to address problems facing contemporary DRM approached : static digital rights management, and limited application to on-line environment. We introduce a dynamic mission control technology to realize dynamic digital rights management. And we incorporate license agent to on- and off-line monitoring and tracking. The proposed system prevent illegal access and use by using PKI security method, real time action monitoring for user, data security for itself.

As distributed systems become used in wider area of applications, many works has been done to invent more efficient way to manage the distributed systems. The client-server based distributed system management by using SNMP or CMIP has many problems such as scalability, interoperability, flexibility, and so on. Recently, it is evident that managing distributed systems using mobile agents have popularity, and the Java language helps the trend. However, the improvement of performance has to be analyzed when the mechanism of mobile agent is applied In this paper, we discuss a more efficient way to make use of the mobile agent mechanism for managing distributed systems, and propose an Agent-On-Demand (AOD) method. The core of the method is not to use the previous method that mobile agents doing management job is dispatched to the managed nodes by a manager application, but to make agents requested by the managed nodes and then the manager application send the requested agents to that nodes. This process is done through Hierarchical State Threshold (HST). Also we present a performance model for Java RMI and mobile agent, and compare the AOD method with the previous work in terms of network overhead and execution time.

As the development of recent science and technology, high-performance computing resources is needed to solve complex problems. To reach these requirements, it has been actively studied about grid computing that consist of a huge system which bind a heterogeneous high performance computing resources into on which are geographically dispersed. However, The current research situation which are the process to obtain the best results in the limited resources and the scheduling policy to accurately predict the total execution time of the real-time task are very poor. In this paper, in order to overcome these problems, we suggested a grid computing-based risk management system which derived from the system structure and the process for improving the efficiency of the system, grid computing-based working methodology, risk policy module which can manage efficiently the problem of the work of resources(Agent), scheduling technique and allocation method which can re-allocate the resource allocation and the resources in problem, and monitoring which can manage resources(Agent).

Over the last few years knowledge management has become more and more impotant part of the in healthcare practices. Therefore the healthcare organisatiions have also begun to apply knowlege management strategies. To address this issue of the lack of true knowledge management in healthcare enterprises, we propose a framework for common Healthcare Knowledge Management. This framework is made up of two suites of applications and services, i.e. the intelligent agent-based knowledge management application suite and the strategic visualisation, planning and coalition formation service suite.
