Ad-Hoc network technology is a mobile internet technology of the future that will be used widely not only in Mobile Network but also in Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) and Ubiquitous Network For this to occur, distributed routing protocol design, loop prevention for link information reduction in overhead for control messages and route restoration algorithm must be improved or complemented. Security techniques that can guarantee safe com-munication between Ad-Hot nodes net also be provided. This study proposes and evaluates a new authentication mechanism for MANET. The mechanism segregates the roles of certification authority to keep with the dynamic mobility of nodes and handle rapid and random topological changes with minimal over-head. That is, this model is characterized by its high expandability that allows the network to perform authentication service without the influence of joining and leaving nodes. The efficiency and security of this concept was evaluated through simulation.

This study categorizes and identifies the characteristics of the living areas of rural dwellers through cluster analysis using mobile floating population data. As a result, rural areas in Korea were classified into 34 rural living areas, and 5 types of rural living areas were derived. Although the 'Suburban in Mega City Areas' and 'Suburban in Regional City Areas' derived through this study have advantages in terms of accessibility to large cities, they are important for rural space management as they can undermine the unique values of rural areas due to urban expansion. In addition, 'Unclassified areas' have low accessibility in the national space, and there is a need to provide their own settlement environment. The population of rural areas in Korea exhibited a phenomenon of widespread migration. This means that rural residents who depend on metropolitan areas are provided with SOC beyond administrative boundaries. Therefore, there is a need to move away from establishing a homogeneous regional plan that does not consider population movement. Through this study, it was possible to understand the rural living area formed by the population movement occurring in the rural area. This is different in that the existing studies classified the national space based on the interconnectedness between regions, beyond the limitations of categorizing regions with homogeneous characteristics based on endogenous indicators. At this point in time when the need for a rural space plan is emphasized, it is important to understand the living area of rural dwellers and to design an appropriate rural plan. Therefore, the establishment of a rural plan suitable for the region using the results of this study can increase the efficiency of the project for revitalization of the rural area and contribute to the creation of an attractive national space.

This study aims to classify the pursuit benefits of smart-phone users, to find smart-phone market segments by pursuit benefits, and to analyze the relative importances of smart-phone attributes according to the smart-phone market segments. As a result, we found that smart-phone users are pursuing the network benefit as well as the two traditional benefits (the utilitarian benefit and the hedonic benefit). According to the levels of these three pursuit benefits, smart-phone users can be classified into four segments : All Benefits Cluster, Utilitarian-Network Benefits Cluster, Hedonic-Network Benefits Cluster, and Non-Network Benefits Cluster. We also verified that, according to the four smart-phone user segments by the pursuit benefits, there exist significant differences in relative importances of the seven smart-phone attributes : hand-set price, hand-set brand, hand-set speed, applications, tariff, mobile internet quality, and number of same service users.

3GPP LTE-Advanced (Third Generation Partnership Project Long Term Evolution-Advanced) as a next generation mobile communication standard introduced small base stations such as femto cells or pico cells, and D2D (Device-to-Device) communications between mobiles in the proximity in order to satisfy the needs of rapidly growing wireless data traffic. A diverse range of topics has been studied to solve various interference situations which may occur within a single cell. In particular, an introduction of a small base station along with D2D communication raises important issues of how to increase the channel capacity and frequency efficiency in HetNets (Heterogeneous Networks). To this end, we propose in this paper methods to manage the interference between the macro cell and other small cells in the HetNet to improve the frequency efficiency. The proposed CCN (Cluster Coordinator Node)-assisted ICI (Inter-Cell Interference) avoidance methods exploit the CCN to control the interference in HetNet comprising of an MeNB (Macro enhanced Node-B) and a large number of small cells. A CCN which is located at the center of a number of small cells serves to avoid the interference between macro cell and small cells. We propose methods of resource allocation to avoid ICI for user equipments within the CCN coverage, and evaluate their performance through system-level computer simulations.

적은 비용으로 고성능 컴퓨팅 시스템을 구축하는 방법중의 하나로 클러스터링이라는 방법이 도입되어 그에 관련된 많은 연구와 방법들이 적용되고 있다. 하지만 베어울프와 같은 대표적인 기존의 고성능 연산 클러스터링의 방법은 주로 동일한 운영체제 환경에서 플러스터링 노드들의 통신에서는 MPI나 PVM등의 병렬처리용 라이브러리에 국한되어 있다. 이러한 방법은 서로 이질적인 네트워크 환경에서 특정 기능의 모듈을 동적으로 확장하거나 적용하는 것에 대해서는 사용자나 관리자의 많은 수동적인 노력을 필요로 하고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 네트워크상에서의 자바 기반의 이동 에이전트를 이용하여 서로 다른 이질적인 시스템들에 대한 확장과 이동이 용이하고 실시간 노드들의 정보를 수집하여 제안한 클러스터링 알고리즘을 적용하여 병렬처리 가능한 작업들의 분배 및 처리할 수 있는 이동 에이전트 기반의 클러스터링 시스템을 연구하였다.

이동 Ad Hoc 네트워크는 무선 채널 특성으로 인해 많은 보안상 위협에 노출될 수 있으므로 인증, 무결성, 기밀성 등의 보안 서비스를 제공하기 위한 키 관리 메커니즘이 요구된다. 그런데 Ad Hoc 네트워크는 중앙 집중적인 관리 노드의 부재, 동적인 위상 변화, 통신 자원의 제약 등의 특성을 고려하여 키 관리 메커니즘을 설계하도록 요구하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 클러스터 기반의 Ad Hoc 네트워크에서 ID 기반의 임계치 암호화 기법을 사용하여 공개키의 사전 분배 가정을 제거함으로써 토폴로지의 확장성과 유연성을 반영하고, 분산적이며 확장성있는 키분배 서비스가 가능하게 하였다. 또한 클러스터간에 교환되는 메시지의 무결성을 보장하기 위한 클러스터 MAC키 협상 방안, 헤드와 클러스터 내 특정 멤버간의 보안 채널 구축 통신하고자 하는 클러스터 멤버 호스트간에 안전하게 세션키를 생성, 분배하는 메커니즘 등을 제안하였다.

센서 네트워크에서 고려해야 하는 중요한 사항중 하나는 제한된 자원을 가진 센서 네트워크에서 주어진 에너지 소모를 최소화 하여서 네트워크 수명을 연장하는 것이다. 그러나 기존에 제안된 프로토콜은 유동성을 지닌 여러 개의 싱크가 존재할 경우에는 비효율 적인 문제가 발생하였으며 그러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 여러 가지 프로토콜이 제안 되었다. 본 논문에서는 기존에 제안된 그리드 형태를 이용한 클러스터 기반의 라우팅 프로토콜인 CBPER(Cluster-based -Power-Efficient Routing)을 기반으로 이 프로토콜이 가지는 영구적인 그리드 형성시 발생할 수 있는 void grid 문제를 해결하고자 한다.

MANET(Mobile Ad-hoc Network) is a self-configuration network or wireless multi-hop network based on inference topology. The proposed ATICC(Adaptive Time Interval Clustering Control) algorithm for hierarchical cluster based MANET. The proposed ATICC algorithm is time interval control technique for node management considering the attribute of node and network traffic. ATICC could be made low the network traffic. Also it could be improving the network life time by using timing control method.

The proposed zone-based self-organized clustering broadcasts neighbor information to only a zone with the same ID. Besides, the zone-based self-organized clustering with unique IDs can communicate securely even if the state transition of nodes in zone-based self-organized clustering is threatened by corrupted nodes. For this security, the Byzantine agreement protocol with proactive asynchronous verifiable secret sharing (AVSS) is considered. As a result of simulation, an efficiency and a security of the proposed clustering are better than those of a traditional clustering. Therefore, this paper describes a new and extended self-organized clustering that securely seeks to minimize the interference in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs).

The paper presents an efficient method of extracting line segment in a local map of a robot's surroundings. The local map is composed of 2-D grids that have both the occupancy and orientation probabilities using sonar sensors. To find the shape of an object in a local map from orientation information, the orientations are clustered into several groups according to their values. The line segment is , then, extracted from the clusters based on Hough transform. The proposed technique is illustrated by experiments in an indoor environment.
