As a standard of WMNs, IEEE 802.11s supports two kinds of MAC algorithm: a mandatory EDCA used by IEEE 802.11e and an optional MCCA. While EDCA classifies traffic according to four Access Categories (AC) and offer differentiated service using a classified priority, MCCA can guarantee the specific bandwidth of users with a TDMA-style bandwidth reservation scheme between mesh routers. In case that a flow is VBR traffic of a multimedia application, MCCA has disadvantage that the reserved bandwidth does not be used entirely, though it guarantees required bandwidth of users and fairness using bandwidth reservation with neighbors' node. In this paper, we showed a problem that is wastes the reserved bandwidth when MCCA is enabled and proposed a new scheduling algorithm to prevent waste of bandwidth and to improve network utilization effectively, named Resource Sharing Round Robin (RSRR) scheduling. Finally we showed simulation results that performance of a proposed RSRR is better than the legacy MCCA through NS-2 simulation.

차세대 인터넷에서 DiffServ 네트워크는 서비스 품질(QoS: Quality of Service) 제공을 위한 확장성이 높은 구조를 제시하고 있다. 차세대 네트워크에서는 음성이나 비디오 전송 같은 많은 응용들을 지원하기 위하여 QoS 보장 서비스가 필요하다. 차세대 인터넷에서 QoS 제공을 위하여 RSVP(Resource Reservation Protocol), MPLS(Multi-Protocol Label Switching), DiffServ 및 QoS 라우팅 등의 기법이 개발되고 표준화되고 있다. 원격 교육 역시 주로 인터넷이 주도하고 있다는 면에서는 QoS의 문제를 피해 갈 수 없는 것이다. 그러나, 국내에서는 이러한 QoS 능력을 안전하게 제공하기 위한 기법에 대한 연구가 거의 없는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 QoS를 안전하게 제공하기 위한 보안 기법을 DiffServ 네트워크를 중심으로 제시하고 원격교육에 적용시의 문제들을 고려하고자 한다.

The efficient network resource management is one of the important topics in a real-time system. In this paper, we present a practical network resource management framework, control-theoretic packet scheduler (CPS) system. Using our framework, an operating system can schedule both input and output streams accurately and efficiently. Our framework adopts very portable feedback control theory for efficiency and accuracy. The CPS system is able to operate independent of the internal network protocol state, and it is designed to schedule packet streams in fine-grained time intervals to meet the resource requirement. This approach simplifies the design of the CPS system, and leads us to obtain the intended output bandwidth. We implemented our prototype system in Linux, and measured the performance of the network resource management system under various network QoS constraints. The distinctive features of our principles are as follows: It is robust and accurate, and its operation is independent of internal network protocols.

In the wireless ATM networks, a Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol is required to support an integrated mix of multimedia traffic services. The MAC protocol should be designed in a way that the limited wireless bandwidth can be efficiently utilized maximizing the Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees for various traffic service classes. In this paper, a Dynamic Resource Allocation-based MAC protocol, which satisfies QoS of each traffic service class in the wireless ATM environment, is proposed. The proposed MAC protocol adopts the dynamic channel allocation schemes for a mix of different traffic service classes. The suggested MAC protocol is designed to provide the QoS guarantees for Constant Bit Rate (CBR) or real-time Variable Bit Rate (VBR) traffic through fixed or dynamic reservation. For Available Bit Rate (ABH) traffic, which has the lowest priority among the traffic classes, large improvement in delay by reserving the minimum bandwidth is shown. And for real-time VBR traffic, increase in throughput of transmission is demonstrated because of bandwidth, which is allocated through contention at the initial phase and without contention thereafter.

Providing Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantee requires for each router on the path of a traffic flow not to violate the flow's delay budget allocated to itself. Since the amount of load being offered to the router is determined by the budget, some imbalance in load among routers on the path may be alleviated by means of adjusting the budget. The equal allocation applied to the resource reservation protocol (RSVP) is simple to implement, but it has the drawback of a poor resource utilization. A load balancing method in which the delay budget being allocated to a router depends on its load state was developed to improve the drawback, but it's too complex to apply to the RSVP. This paper proposes an intra-path load balancing method not only applicable to the RSVP but also more effective in improving the drawback. The proposed method first partitions the end-to-end delay bound of a flow to routers by the RSVP and then let them adjust their budgets according to both the bottleneck state of the path and their links' bandwidth availabilities. The results of the simulation applying the proposed method to an evaluation network showed that the proposed method may provide the gain of 4 ${\sim}$ 17 % compared to that in the legacy one in terms of the number of maximally admittable flows.

In this paper, we tried to enable a mobile device as a resource to access to mobile grid networks. By advanced Internet techniques, the use of mobile devices has been rapidly increased. Some researches in mobile grid computing tried to combine grid computing with mobile devices. However, according to intrinsic properties of mobile environments, mobile devices have many considerations, such as mobility management, disconnected operation, device heterogeneity, service discovery, resource sharing, security, and so on. To solve these problems, there are two trends for mobile grid computing: a proxy-based mobile grid architecture and an agent-based mobile grid architecture. We focus on a proxy-based mobile grid architecture with IP-paging, which can easily manage idle mobile devices and grid resource status information. Also, we use SIP(Session Initiation Protocol)to support mobility management, mobile grid services. We manage variation of mobile device state and power by paging cache. Finally, using the candidate set and the reservation set of resources, we perform task migration. The performance evaluation by simulation, shows improvement of efficiency and stability during execution.

본 논문에서는 SM 메시지(Search Message)를 이용하여 효과적인 예약 오류 최소화를 위한 새로운 RSVP(Resource Reservation Protocol) 알고기즘을 제안한다. 기존의 RFC-2205[1]에 제시된 방안은 각각의 예약 요청을 모두 유지해야하기 때문에 과도한 대역폭 낭비와 이로인한 예약 성공 횟수가 감소되는 문제점을 안고 있다. 대역폭 낭비를 줄이기위해 본 논문에서는 SM 메시지를 도입하였다. 수신자는 주기적으로 SM 메시지를 송신자로 전송하여, 전송로 상의 각 라우터의 사용가능한 대역폭을 검사하여 최소 대역폭으로 각 라우터에 블록케이드 값을 생성한다. 각 라우터에서의 병합작업시 SM 메시지를 이용하여 설정된 블록케이드 값을 기준으로 병합작업 여부를 결정한다. 이는 각각의 예약요청을 별도로 유지해야 할 필요가 없어지므로, 기존의 KRP-I 문제의 해결책인 RFC-2205보다 대역폭 낭비를 줄일수 있게되며 이로인해 예약 수락율이 증가하여 보다 많은 예약 성공 횟수를 얻을수 있게된다. 제안한 SM 알고리즘을 모의 실험 해 본 결과, 예약 수락율이 기존의 RFC-2205보다 전체적으로 약 26% 정도 향상되었다.

This paper proposes a protocol for the reliableand QoS-aware multicast transport, which is called the Enhanced Communications Transport Protocol (ECTP). The ECTP has so far been developed and standardized in ITU-T SG17 and ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 6. Differently from the conventional reliable multicast, as shownin the IETF RMT WG, the ECTP additionally provides several distinct features such as tight control of multicast session, tree-based error control, and QoS management. For the tight control of multicast connections, the sender is at the heart of one-to-many group communications, and it is responsible for overall connection management such as connection creation/termination, pause/resumption, and the join and leave operations. for tree-based reliability control, ECTP configures a hierarchical tree during connection creation. Error control is performed within each local group defined by a control tree, which was partly designed like the IETF TRACK approach. Each parent retransmits lost data in response to retransmission requests from its children. For QoS management, ECTP supports QoS negotiation for resource reservation, and it also provides QoS monitoring and maintenance operations. ECTP has been implemented and tested on Linux machine, along with Application Programming Interfaces based on Berkeley sockets. For basic testing of the ECTP functionality, we give some preliminary experimental results for performance comparison of ECTP and TCP unicast transports. In conclusion, we describe the status of ECTP experimentations over APAN/KOREN testbed networks
