  • The introduction of virtualization technology in the broadcasting field is actively progressing broadcasting service automation and intelligence based on the effective operation of IT resources throughout the broadcasting industry ecosystem. In recent years, there is increasing interest in increasing the flexibility of various broadcasting resources and increasing the efficiency of interworking with other networks through network virtualization of the broadcasting network infrastructure. The fundamental transformation from the broadcasting network to the IP paradigm is facing a situation where it is necessary to solve various problems for the effective interworking of Internet-based service platforms and 5G networks and the development of new convergence services. In other words, for organic and effective interworking with the next-generation broadcasting network represented by ATSC 3.0, a mobile communication network represented by 5G, and the Internet, a number of difficulties must be solved. In this paper, the basic technology and status for the convergence of ATSC 3.0 broadcasting network and mobile communication network represented by 5G was examined, and a plan for the ATSC 3.0 broadcasting network and 5G network to interwork with each other as a network was described.

  • RTEMS is a real-time operating system using a GPLv2-based license, and is used in the aerospace industry, such as satellites. It is difficult to build a development environment for these special-purpose systems because of problems related to the hardware platform. This can be resolved by applying virtualization technology. However, increased execution time and performance degradation due to virtualization overhead can change timing behavior of real-time application, and needs to be minimized. In this paper, we aim to implement the network device driver of RTEMS for the standardized virtual network device called virtio in order to effectively utilize RTEMS in a virtualized environment. In addition, we describe the process of submitting implemented driver to the RTEMS community for contributing open source software and reflecting the various requirements of the community.

  • With the advent of 5G and B5G (Beyond 5G) networks, network virtualization technology that can overcome the limitations of existing networks is attracting attention. The purpose of network virtualization is to provide solutions for efficient network resource utilization and various services. Existing heuristic-based VNE (Virtual Network Embedding) techniques have been studied, but the flexibility is limited. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a GNN-based network slicing classification scheme to meet various service requirements and a RL-based VNE scheme for optimal resource allocation. The proposed method performs optimal VNE using an Actor-Critic network. Finally, to evaluate the performance of the proposed technique, we compare it with Node Rank, MCST-VNE, and GCN-VNE techniques. Through performance analysis, it was shown that the GNN and RL-based VNE techniques are better than the existing techniques in terms of acceptance rate and resource efficiency.

  • Along with the growth of u-Healthcare, we propose a security enhancement based on network separation for CloudHIS with for handling healthcare information to cope with cyber attack. To protect against all security threats and to establish clear data security policies, we apply desktop computing servers to cloud computing services for CloudHIS. Use two PCs with a hypervisor architecture to apply physical network isolation and select the network using KVM switched controller. The other is a logical network separation using one PC with two OSs, but the network is divided through virtualization. Physical network separation is the physical connection of a PC to each network to block the access path from both the Internet and the business network. The proposed system is an independent desktop used to access an intranet or the Internet through server virtualization technology on a user's physical desktop computer. We can implement an adaptive solution to prevent hacking by configuring the CloudHIS, a cloud system that handles medical hospital information, through network separation for handling security enhancement.

  • Current Internet is designed by lots of service providers with different objects and policies which make the direct deployment of radically new architecture and protocols on Internet nearly impossible without reaching a consensus among almost all of them. Network virtualization is proposed to fend off this ossification of Internet architecture and add diversity to the future Internet. As an important part of network virtualization, virtual network embedding (VNE) problem has received more and more attention. In order to solve the problems of large embedding cost, low acceptance ratio (AR) and environmental adaptability in VNE algorithms, cognitive method is introduced to improve the adaptability to the changing environment and a cognitive virtual network embedding algorithm based on weighted relative entropy (WRE-CVNE) is proposed in this paper. At first, the weighted relative entropy (WRE) method is proposed to select the suitable substrate nodes and paths in VNE. In WRE method, the ranking indicators and their weighting coefficients are selected to calculate the node importance and path importance. It is the basic of the WRE-CVNE. In virtual node embedding stage, the WRE method and breadth first search (BFS) algorithm are both used, and the node proximity is introduced into substrate node ranking to achieve the joint topology awareness. Finally, in virtual link embedding stage, the CPU resource balance degree, bandwidth resource balance degree and path hop counts are taken into account. The path importance is calculated based on the WRE method and the suitable substrate path is selected to reduce the resource fragmentation. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can significantly improve AR and the long-term average revenue to cost ratio (LTAR/CR) by adjusting the weighting coefficients in VNE stage according to the network environment. We also analyze the impact of weighting coefficient on the performance of the WRE-CVNE. In addition, the adaptability of the WRE-CVNE is researched in three different scenarios and the effectiveness and efficiency of the WRE-CVNE are demonstrated.

  • Recently, world-wide research activities on new network architectures and protocols are being actively progressed. Furthermore, research activities on testbed and related technologies for supporting those activities are being actively performed. In domestic study, research on the OpenFlow protocol based future Internet testbed implementation and research on its virtualization for supporting independent research experiments are being performed at the same time. The network virtualization is a technology which maximizes the testbed utilization without interfering each other for the individual research when many researchers share the testbed. In this paper, we implemented a Enhanced FlowVisor by extending basic FlowVisor by adding QoS functions which are admission control and minimum bandwidth guarantee. On the testbed, we performed a real-time video streaming experiment for verifying the performance of the Enhnaced FlowVisor on the OpenFlow protocol based future internet testbed. The result shows that the Enhanced FlowVisor can provide reliable and stable QoS to the individual researches without disturbing each other traffic on virtualized networks of the future Internet testbed.

  • Development of Internet has been successfully inspired with extensive deployment of the network technology and application. However, increases in Internet usage had caused a lot of traffic overload in these days. Thus, we need a continuous research and development on the network virtualization for effective resource allocation. In this paper, we propose a minimal cost virtual network mapping algorithm using Piecewise Linear Cost Function. We exploited an algorithm with Linear Programming and D-VINE for node mapping, and Shortest Path Algorithm based on linear programming solution is used for link mapping. In this way, we compared and analyzed the average cost for arrival rate of VN request with linear and tree structure. Simulation results show that the average cost of our algorithm shows better efficiency than ViNEyard.

  • A new architecture coiled the Storage Area Network(SAN) was developed in response to the requirements of high availability of data, scalable growth, and system performance, In order to use SAN more efficiently, most SAN operating system support storage virtualization concepts that allow users to view physical storage devices attached to SAN as a large volume virtually. A logical volume manager plays a key role in storage virtualization. It realizes the storage virtualization by mapping logical addresses to physical addresses, In this paper, we design and implement an efficient and flexible mapping method for logical volume manager. Additionally, to aid flexible mapping, we also design and implement free space management method, The mapping method in this paper supports a snapshot that preserves a volume image at certain time and on-line reorganization to allow users to add or remove storage devices to SAN even while the system is running.
