There are two traditional scheduling methods known as PQ and WRR in the DiffServ network, however, these two scheduling methods have some drawbacks. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can be adopted in WRR scheduler with making up for weak points of PQ and WRR. The proposed algorithm produces the control discipline by the fuzzy theory to dynamically assigns the weight of WRR scheduler with checking the Queue status of each class. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, We accomplished a computer simulation using NS-2. In result, the proposed algorithm enhances the packet discard rate at the EF class than WRR scheduling method and the AF4 class than PQ scheduling method.

This paper proposes a HAG(Hidden-Node-Aware Grouping) algorithm for IEEE 802.15.4 networks to enhance the performance by eliminating collisions resulted from the hidden node problem without adopting the RTS/CTS packet exchanges. To solve the hidden node problem, the HAG algorithm organizes nodes into disjoint transmission groups by dynamically allocating hidden nodes into separate groups which take turns in a round robin way for their transmission. For dynamic group adjustment, it periodically evaluates the presence of hidden nodes based on subordinate nodes' receipt reports. To accurately measure its behavior, this paper also builds an analytical model to estimate its throughput fluctuation over various network topologies. The mathematical model along with simulation results confirmed that the HAG technique gracefully degraded the throughput of IEEE 802.15.4 networks whereas the standard IEEE 802.15.4 networks suffer severe throughput fallout as hidden nodes become populated.

A cluster of servers is the most promising solution to provide highly scalable and highly available network services with low implementation cost. One of popular solutions is using dispatcher as a request distributor. However this solution has the problem that is can be the bottleneck or single-point of failure point of itself. ONE-IP, the previous work, solves this serious problem by using broadcast message for distributing the request packet in LAN. Using simple scheduling technique, in addition, the overhead due to dispatching the request becomes minimal. However, as ONE-IP using very simple static scheduling algorithm, it would spread the request among servers unevenly and downgrades the cluster performance consequently. In this paper, we propose an improved TCP connection scheduling technique solving this unbalanced distributing problem. Using Round-Robin(RR) scheduling instead of hashing clients IP address, proposed technique can more evenly distribute incoming service requests among the servers. Experiments show average 3.8% improved performance in throughput compared to original ONE-IP technique.

WebRTC has quickly grown to be the world's advanced real-time communication in several platforms such as web and mobile. In spite of the advantage, the current technology in WebRTC does not handle a big-streaming efficiently between peers and a large amount request of users on the Signaling server. Therefore, in this paper, we put our work to handle the problem by delivering the flow of data with dynamical load balancing algorithms. We analyze the request source users and direct those streaming requests to a load balancing component. More specifically, the component determines an amount of the requested resource and available resource on the response server, then it delivers streaming data to the requesting user parallel or alternately. To show how the method works, we firstly demonstrate the load-balancing algorithm by using a network simulation tool OPNET, then, we seek to implement the method into an Ubuntu server. In addition, we compare the result of our work and the original implementation of WebRTC, it shows that the method performs efficiently and dynamically than the origin.
