Based on a complex event processing technique, an abuse pattern monitoring method is developed to provide an real-time detection. CEP is a technique to find complex event pattern in a massive information system. In this study, the events occurred by game-play are observed to be against the rules using CEP. User abuse patterns are pre-registered in CEP engine. And CEP engine monitors user abuse after aggregating the game data transferred by game logging server.

The on-line games in the past were played by only two persons exchanging data based on one-to-one connections, whereas recent ones (e.g. MMORPG: Massively Multi-player Online Role-playings Game) enable tens of thousands of people to be connected simultaneously. Specifically, Korea has established an excellent network infrastructure that can't be found anywhere in the world. Almost every household has a high-speed Internet access. What made this possible was, in part, high density of population that has accelerated the formation of good Internet infrastructure. However, this rapid increase in the use of on-line games may lead to surging traffics exceeding the limited Internet communication capacity so that the connection to the games is unstable or the server fails. expanding the servers though this measure is very costly could solve this problem. To deal with this problem, the present study proposes the load distribution technology that connects in the form of local clustering the game servers divided by their contents used in each on-line game reduces the loads of specific servers using the load balancer, and enhances performance of sewer for their efficient operation. In this paper, a cluster system is proposed where each Game server in the system has different contents service and loads are distributed efficiently using the game server resource information such as CPU utilization. Game sewers having different contents are mutually connected and managed with a network file system to maintain information consistency required to support resource information updates, deletions, and additions. Simulation studies show that our method performs better than other traditional methods. In terms of response time, our method shows shorter latency than RR (Round Robin) and LC (Least Connection) by about 12%, 10% respectively.

When a dynamic method is applied at the time of occurrence of an client's connection request for most of the online gaming server engine, the gaming server is processing a session connection, it's initialization. Yet, such a method will cause a lot of loading and bottle-neck in the gaming server at the same time. Therefore we propose the object polling scheme to minimizes a memory fragmentation and loading of the initialization on the client using a static allocation method for an efficient On-lin gaming serverin this paper. We implement the gaming server applying to our proposed scheme, and we show an improvement in our proposed scheme by performance analysis in this paper.

CEP(Complex Event Processing) is a technique to find complex event pattern in a massive information system. Based on CEP technique, an abuse pattern monitoring method has been developed to provide an real-time detection. In the method, the events occurred by game-play are observed to be against the rules using CEP. User abuse patterns are pre-registered in CEP engine. And CEP engine monitors user abuse after aggregating the game data transferred by game logging server. This article provides the performance analysis results of the abuse pattern monitoring method using real game DB. We results that the method proposed in previous study is effective to monitor abusing users.

In this paper, an application layer protocol between sewer and client is proposed for mobile on-line contents in heterogeneous distributed environments. The proposed protocol guarantees the global state consistency in the distributed environments and controls the flow of communication. The protocol reduces the overhead of handsets for flow control and does not need to maintain state information for contents. CPs, by using the proposed sealable protocol, can easily develop their contents as application processes.

This paper measures and compares the traffic of a series of Massively Multi-player On-line Role Playing Game (MMORPG). The purpose of this analysis is to characterize the MMORPG traffic and compare the traffic characteristics of those games caused by the game structure difference between 2D and 3D environment. The target game is 'Lineage I' and 'Lineage II' which represent world's largest MMORPGs in terms of the number of concurrent users. We collect about 280 giga bytes and 1 tera bytes of packet headers, respectively. We compare packet size, packet inter-arrival time and bandwidth usage of these two games. The MMORPG traffic consists of two kinds of packets: client-generated upstream packets and server-generated downstream packets. We observe that the upstream packet size of payload has grown from 9 bytes to 19 bytes, while the average payload size of downstream packets has grown from 37 bytes to 318 bytes. This asymmetry of growing rate is caused by 3D game structure. Packet inter-arrival time becomes shorter from average 2 milliseconds to 58 microseconds. Bandwidth consumption per client has grown from 4 kbps to 20 kbps. We find that there is a linear relationship between the number of users and the bandwidth usage in both case.

Due to the spread of COVID-19, many local governments are burdened with the influx of large-scale tourists. As a climate that values Work-Life-Balance has emerged, interest in individual life and satisfaction is rapidly increasing. In addition, due to the popularity of the metaverse field, many people are increasingly interested in related content. In particular, "Animal Crossing: New Horizons" sold more than 15 million copies in 2020, and is enjoying exchanges of interior design, fishing, and collecting insects here. In line with this trend, this study introduces the development of online fishing games based on Jeju infrastructure. This paper focuses on implementation and development, and in particular, it introduces differentiated games through character animation optimized for developing a topographic model that maximizes the beauty of Jeju Island's topography based on the Unity 3D engine.

Concurrency control is one of the important factors to maintain consistent conditions of a game because most participants of the game should be shared information to play the game through a distributed network system. replay delay times should establish in every event and the received event should be saved and performed simultaneously for Concurrency Control. However, it is not easy to practice the event with same speed in environment having various moving speed. Therefore, expansion have to be provided. In other words, one of the most important factors of a game's efficiency is the process of bandwidth and delay. the process of concurrency control method based on scalable prediction for Multi-platform games would minimize the loss rate of a event and then would improve the interaction capacity of a game. It also might get reliability between clients. This paper analyzes some problems in terms of a layout of a game that integrates a cable and a wireless system. In addition, this paper provides methods to expand bandwidth and delay that might be an obstacle of a On-line game and to ensure reliability between a server and a client.

본 논문은 대규모 네트워크 온라인 게임에서 게임 진행 중에 발생할 수 있는 부하를 최소화 할 수 있고 추후 확장이 용이한 온라인 게임 서버의 구조에 대해 설명한다. 본 논문에서 설명하는 게임 서버는 게임 서버가 제공해야 하는 기능별로 로그인 서버, 존 서버, 사용자 관리 서버, 그리고 DB 에이전트로 구성된다. 각 서버들은 상호 연관관계를 최소화하여 어느 한 서버에 고장이 발생하였을 때 전체 게임에 발생할 수 있는 문제를 최소화 할 수 있고 추후 확장이 용이한 구조이다.
