Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) deal with variety of healthcare services with diverse Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. However, QoS handling is a challenging problem in such networks. In general, QoS related problems can be addressed from different layers in the networking protocol suite. Design of an efficient QoS aware Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol can address this problem in MAC layer. This paper analyzes the QoS requirements of WBAN, identifies the requisites of QoS handling system, and outlines the trends that are being followed for its advancement with focus on QoS issues at MAC layer. We review some prior works, compare them, and analyze the current research concerned with problem of providing QoS in WBAN. We also explore some open issues and discuss them.

IPTV는 방통융합의 대표적인 매체로 자리 매김하며 2008년 상용서비스를 시작으로 계속 진화하고 있다. 그러나, 초기 서로 다른 방식으로 IPTV 서비스를 시작함으로 인해 상호운용성 문제가 대두 됨에 따라, TTA를 통해 IPTV 분야의 표준화가 시작되어 현재도 다양한 IPTV 분야의 기 제정된 표준의 개정 작업 및 신규 분야의 표준화를 계속 추진하고 있다. 이렇듯 표준화가 진행됨에 따라, IPTV 단말의 사업자 간의 이동성을 보장하기 위한 노력이 계속되고 있으며, 그 중 하나로 IPTV 단말 프로비저닝 절차 표준화가 추진되어 현재까지 2번의 개정 작업을 통해 표준안의 보완/수정 작업 등이 진행되어 2차 개정판이 완료되었다. 이에 TTA에서는 해당 표준을 구현한 STB 등 단말과 서버에 대한 표준적합성 시험을 위한 시험규격을 개발하였다. IPTV 단말 프로비저닝 절차 표준에서는 단말의 네트워크 접속부터 펌웨어/소프트웨어 업그레이드, IPTV 서비스를 탐색하기 위한 정보 전달을 위한 절차를 정의하고 있으며, 각 절차별 데이터 형식 및 프로토콜을 검증하기 위한 시험항목을 개발하였으며, 표준안 검증 및 시험 서비스 제공을 위한 시험환경을 구축하였다.

Radio wave is the valuable resources in $21^{st}$ century. It will be widely used in various applications such as DMB, USN, telematics, and home network as well as mobile and wireless communications. Cognitive Radio technology is devised to maximize the utilization of radio resources by sensing near-by spectrum and dynamic and allocating free resources dynamically and adaptively. Wireless links for the secondary user need to be frequently switched to idle frequencies during the transmission of multimedia data in the cognitive radio based system. This may cause delay and information loss, and QoS degradations occur inevitably. The efficient frequency allocation scheme is necessary to support the seamless multimedia service to the secondary user while maintaining QoS of the primary user. This paper suggests a frequency selection scheme which considers other parameters such as cell load, data rate, and available bandwidth than just received signal strength during the frequency selection process. The performance of our proposed scheme is analyzed by simulation.

The national 2G-3G roaming is emerging as one of essential and important issues In Korea in connection with the recent granting of 3G licenses. Accustomed to the current seamless coverage and superb quality of 2G networks, many subscribers have very high expectations of an equal or better service provisioning by 3G networks. However, it is very unlikely for 3G operators to successfully build their networks as comprehensive as the current 2G networks in the beginning of network implementation and commercial launch. Therefore,3G operators are seriously considering the national 2G-3G roaming in Korea. In this paper. 1 would like to discuss and present a technical implementation scheme and problems that need to be solved fer successfully realizing the national 2G-3G roaming.

하둡은 대표적인 빅데이터 처리 프레임워크로 널리 사용되고 있지만 하둡 어플리케이션은 고성능컴퓨팅 환경에서 하둡 분산파일시스템이 아닌 러스터 병렬 파일시스템 위에서도 수행될 수 있다. 그러나 이를 위해서 추가적으로 러스터 병렬파일시스템을 구축하고 관리하는 것은 시간 소모적인 업무가 될 수 있다. 본 연구는 러스터 병렬파일시스템의 오토 프로비저닝을 위한 암바리 서비스의 설계 방안에 대해서 제안한다. 암바리는 하둡 클러스터의 프로비저닝, 관리, 모니터링을 위한 운영 관리 프레임워크이며 운영자의 필요에 따라서 확장할 수 있는 서비스 프레임워크를 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 암바리를 통해서 러스터 병렬파일시스템을 오토 프로비저닝하고 관리하기 위한 확장 서비스를 설계하였으며 서비스를 위한 컴포넌트와 각 컴포넌트별 중요한 기능 사항에 대해서 논하였다.

The pervasive game environments have activated explosive growth of the Internet over recent decades. Thus, understanding Internet traffic characteristics and precise classification have become important issues in network management, resource provisioning, and game application development. Naturally, much attention has been given to analyzing and modeling game traffic. Little research, however, has been undertaken on the classification of game traffic. In this paper, we perform an interpretive traffic analysis of popular game applications at the transport layer and propose a new classification method based on a simple decision tree, called an alternative decision tree (ADT), which utilizes the statistical traffic characteristics of game applications. Experimental results show that ADT precisely classifies game traffic from other application traffic types with limited traffic features and a small number of packets, while maintaining low complexity by utilizing a simple decision tree.

Next generation wireless network is evolving toward IP-based network that can various provide multimedia services. A challenge in wireless mobile Internet is support of quality of service over wireless access networks. DiffServ architecture is proposed for evolving wireless mobile Internet. In this paper we propose an algorithm for optimal buffer partitioning which requires the minimal channel capacity to satisfy the QoS requirements of input traffic. We used a partitioned buffer with size B to serve a layered traffic at each DiffServ router. We consider a traffic model with a single source generates traffic having J $(J\geq2)$ quality of service (QoS) classes. QoS in this case is described by loss probability $\varepsilon_j$. for QoS class j. Traffic is admitted or rejected based on the buffer occupancy and its service class. Traffic is generated by heterogeneous Markov-modulated fluid source (MMFS).

This paper addresses how to be connected with end-to-end shortcut using ATM Switched Virtual Connection (SVC) in ATM-based Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Networks. Without additionally existing ATM Ships-in-the-Night (SIN) mode, when the stream is continuously transmitted at the same destination with the lapse of determined aging time, the connection is changed with end-to-end shortcut connection using ATM signaling. An ATM direct short circuit is performed an IP and ATM effective integration. An ATM shortcut has a number of advantages, like higher throughput, shorter end-to-end delay, reduced router load, better utilization of L2 Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities, and route optimization. In particular between other MPLS domains, this can be efficiently improved the performance of networks.

In this paper, we propose the burst error reduction (BER) algorithm for VoIP service in the wireless LAN network. In end point device, this BER algorithm can be achieved packet loss bounded QoS provisioning using interleaving in buffering and FEC (Forward Error Correction) through transmitting voice packet. BER algorithm can reduced the voice packet loss rate 5.5%-60% in VoIP network using wireless LAN.

ATM based MPLS(Multiprotocol Label Switching) is discussed for its provisioning QOS commitment capabilities, Traffic engineering and smooth migration for BcN in Korea. At this time, due to the comprehensive nature of ATM protocol, ATM has been adapted as the backbone system for carrying Internet traffic[1,2,3,4]. This paper presents preventive congestion control mechanisms for detecting HTR(Hard-To-Reach) LSP(Label Switched Path) in ATM based MPLS systems. In particular, we have introduced a HTR LSP detection method using network signaling information in an ATM layer. MPLS related studies can cover LSP failures in a physical layer fault, it can not impact network congestion status. Here we will present the research results for introducing HTR LSP detection methods and control mechanisms and this mechanism can be implementing as SOC for high speed processing a packet header. We concluded that it showed faster congestion avoidance abilities with a more reduced system load and maximized the efficiency of network resources by restricting ineffective machine attempts.
