고용량 멀티미디어 및 대용량 콘텐츠와 같은 트래픽이 급속도로 증가하고 사용자들의 다양한 요구사항이 발생함에 따라 기존의 단일 클라우드 서비스 환경의 자원 부족 문제가 대두되고 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해 협업 클라우드 환경이 제안되었는데, 이는 이종의 클라우드 서비스 환경을 통합하여 부족한 자원 문제를 해결하고, 클라우드 서비스 제공자들의 이익을 최대화시키는 것에 목적을 두고 있다. 본 논문에서는 협업 클라우드 환경에서 각 데이터 센터내의 자원을 최적으로 분배하고 입력되는 사용자 요청 패턴을 반영할 수 있는 수익 함수 모델을 제안하고 이에 따라 각 서비스 제공자들의 이익이 증가함을 보인다.

Pollinators play important roles for crop production as well as maintenance of wild plants' reproduction. Pollinator dependency in Korean agriculture have increased, but the degradation of habitat quality pose significant threats to pollination in agroecosystem. Provisioning flower habitat is one of the major activities to increase pollinator abundance and richness. We tested the effect of flower habitat supplementation on the pollinator, pest and natural enemy abundance in pepper field. Results showed that Hymenopteran pollinators were more abundant in the pepper plots close to the flower habitat. Among natural enemies, the similar pattern from pollinators was observed to parasitoids in the family of Eulophidae, but not to those of Ichneumonidae. There were no statistically significant differences of insect pests like aphids and thrips, as well as pepper production among plots in the pepper field. Even limited spatial scale, this study showed supplementing the flowering plant habitat to the agricultural landscape could conserve and boost pollinators and natural enemies, and possibly resulting better fruit production by pollination service.

With the advancement in the Internet of things Technology (IoT) cloud computing, billions of physical devices have been interconnected for sharing and collecting data in different applications. Despite many advancements, some latency - specific application in the real world is not feasible due to existing constraints of IoT devices and distance between cloud and IoT devices. In order to address issues of latency sensitive applications, fog computing has been developed that involves the availability of computing and storage resources at the edge of the network near the IoT devices. However, fog computing suffers from many limitations such as heterogeneity, storage capabilities, processing capability, memory limitations etc. Therefore, it requires an adequate task scheduling method for utilizing computing resources optimally at the fog layer. This work presents a comprehensive review of different task scheduling methods in fog computing. It analyses different task scheduling methods developed for a fog computing environment in multiple dimensions and compares them to highlight the advantages and disadvantages of methods. Finally, it presents promising research directions for fellow researchers in the fog computing environment.

네트워크 기능 가상화와 소프트웨어 정의 네트워킹의 융합은 현재의 네트워크를 대체할 새로운 매커니즘으로써 대두되고 있다. 특히 서비스 기능 체인은 네트워크에 유연성을 효율적으로 부여할 수 있다는 장점으로 인해 부각되고 있다. 그러나 서비스 기능 체인은 그 특유의 체인형 구조로 인해 생존성에 큰 약점을 갖고 있기도 하다. 이에 기존 방법들은 별도의 백업 가상 네트워크 기능을 배치하는데, 이는 자원 효율적이지 못하다. 본 논문에서는 추가적인 백업 가상 네트워크 기능 배치 없이 서비스 기능 체인의 생존성을 보장하는 백업 시스템을 제안한다.

Background: The understanding of ecosystem services can be quantified and qualitative to assess the impacts of changes in the ecosystem to support human well-being. In the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, sustainable use of ecosystem services has attracted the interest of a range of decision-makers. However, although there is a concern for biodiversity, natural ecosystem, and their services, linking ecosystems with conservation planning remains challenging. Results: This study assessed the first qualitative ecosystem services provided by the Mundok wetland with decision makers of the West/Yellow Sea region. Furthermore, this study applied the Rapid Assessment Wetland Ecosystem method to support natural resources management, improving living conditions. We identified that cultural and supporting services index are highly provided, but preparing a plan to increase the provisioning and regulating services in Mundok wetland is necessary. Conclusions: The assessment results can provide helpful information for ecosystem services assessment, habitat conservation, conservation planning, and decision-making at local level.

This paper investigates a non Markovian M/G/1 queue with retrial policy, different kind of service rates as well as unsatisfied clients which is inspired by an example of a transmission medium access control in wireless communications. The server tends to work continuously until it finds at least one client in the system. The server will begin its maintenance tasks after serving all of the clients and if the system becomes empty. Provisioning periods in regular working periods and maintenance service periods should be evenly divided. Using supplementary variable technique, the amount of clients in the system as well as in the orbit were found. Further few performance measures of the system were demonstrated numerically.

Recent advancements in cloud service virtualization technologies have witnessed a shift from a Virtual Machine-centric approach to a container-centric paradigm, offering advantages such as faster deployment and enhanced portability. Container orchestration has emerged as a key technology for efficient management and scheduling of these containers. However, with the increasing complexity and diversity of heterogeneous workloads and service types, resource scheduling has become a challenging task. Various research endeavors are underway to address the challenges posed by diverse workloads and services. Yet, a systematic approach to container orchestration for effective cloud management has not been clearly defined. This paper proposes the DRA-Engine (Dynamic Resource Allocation Engine) for resource scheduling in container orchestration. The proposed engine comprises the Request Load Procedure, Required Resource Measurement Procedure, and Resource Provision Decision Procedure. Through these components, the DRA-Engine dynamically allocates resources according to the application's requirements, presenting a solution to the challenges of resource scheduling in container orchestration.

This paper proposes a configuration automation technique to minimize service interruption time in the event of a corporate network access layer switch failure. The automation is achieved without the need for a separate external system, as the network setting information is stored in a container inside the switch, enabling rapid recovery without requiring separate storage. This approach ensures the continuity of network services and demonstrates the efficiency of configuration automation. The proposed technique improves corporate network stability by providing a quick response in the event of a failure.

Digital platforms characterized by network effects enable provisioning of various types of services and provide a mechanism for linking producers and consumers. Identifying the key Quality of Service attributes of such platforms is vital for their continued success and growth. In this paper, a set of quality attributes for platforms is first extracted from different extant quality models. Then actual user feedback data from three platform providers are analysed and mapped against the set of quality attributes to determine the key attributes that are relevant. These findings are corroborated with qualitative data from interviews of different stakeholders. The results show that service quality characteristics are important to the success of platforms. Functional characteristics of platforms assume importance where the digital contributions of the platform is higher. Apart from these, 'fitness for use' as a major determinant of quality is also important in digital platforms.
