  • Recently webhard services in various applications have been notably increased. In order to adopt some webhard functions into the existing application platform, however, a lot of manpower and cost is necessary. In this paper, we propose webhard API based on cloud storage for building and extending the webhard functions. The proposed system consists of three layers: application, web-hard server, and storage server in which each layer provides its API independently. It is enable the developer to easily extend the webhard functions to the application by using only HTTP request, which provides no limitation of the programming language. Because our webhard API is running on the virtualized cloud storage, it is possible to easily extend the storages and to reduce the maintenance cost. In this paper, we implement all the webhard API and then show the result of adopting the API to a prototype groupware system.

  • A new architecture called the Storage Area Network(SAN) was developed in response to the requirements of high availability of data, scalable growth, and system performance. In order to use SAN more efficiently, most SAN operating systems support storage virtualization concepts that allow users to view physical storage devices attached to SAN as a large volume virtually. A logical volume manager plays a key role in storage virtualization. In order for mapping managers to process snap-shots and reorganizations, an efficient freespace manager is required, and it affects the overall performance of logical volume. In this thesis, we design and implement a freespace manager for logical volume manager. The freespace manager efficiently allocates physical blocks for logical blocks. Also, it processes space allocation requests for supports snapshots and reorganizations.

  • The interaction between wireless sensors such as Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud is a new paradigm of communication virtualization to overcome resource and efficiency restriction. Cloud computing provides unlimited platform, resources, services and also covers almost every area of computing. On the other hand, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) has gained attention for their potential supports and attractive solutions such as IoT, environment monitoring, healthcare, military, critical infrastructure monitoring, home and industrial automation, transportation, business, etc. Besides, our virtual groups and social networks are in main role of information sharing. However, this sensor network lacks resource, storage capacity and computational power along with extensibility, fault-tolerance, reliability and openness. These data are not available to community groups or cloud environment for general purpose research or utilization yet. If we reduce the gap between real and virtual world by adding this WSN driven data to cloud environment and virtual communities, then it can gain a remarkable attention from all over, along with giving us the benefit in various sectors. We have proposed a Pub/Sub-based sensor virtualization framework Cloud environment. This integration provides resource, service, and storage with sensor driven data to the community. We have virtualized physical sensors as virtual sensors on cloud computing, while this middleware and virtual sensors are provisioned automatically to end users whenever they required. Our architecture provides service to end users without being concerned about its implementation details. Furthermore, we have proposed an efficient content-based event matching algorithm to analyze subscriptions and to publish proper contents in a cost-effective manner. We have evaluated our algorithm which shows better performance while comparing to that of previously proposed algorithms.

  • This paper presents an evaluation framework for prototyping multimedia streaming services including audio and video in a distributed and/or decentralized storage that can evaluate service quality and performance under various network conditions. The evaluation framework focuses on important indicators which measure and improve service quality by applying decentralized storage to multimedia streaming services that can mimic the scalability of the existing server-client software architecture and the issue of a single point of failure. The integrated framework not only measures performance indicators for evaluating the quality and performance of multimedia streaming on open source based multimedia content streaming services, but also adjusts network quality using network virtualization technology for comprehensive evaluations. The experimental results show that the integrated framework has low overhead in building and operating a decentralized storage with multimedia streaming services on a single host computer which validates the scalability of the developed framework.

  • Cloud computing integrates computing resources such as servers, storage, and networks with virtualization technology to provide suitable services according to user needs. Due to the structural characteristics of sharing physical resources based on virtualization technology, threats to availability can occur, so it is essential to respond to availability threats in cloud computing. Existing over-provisioning method is not suitable because it can generate idle resources and cause under-provisioning to degrade or disconnect service. System resources must be allocated in real-time according to the system load to guarantee the cloud system's availability. Through appropriate management measures, it is necessary to reduce the system load and increase the performance of the system. This paper analyzes the work response time according to the allocation or migration of virtual machines and discusses an efficient resource management method considering the system load.

  • The personal workspace consists of user- specified computing environment such as user profile, applications and their configurations, and user data. Mobile computing devices (i.e., cellular phones, PDAs, laptop computers, and Ultra Mobile PC) are getting smaller and lighter to provide personal work-space ubiquitously. However, various personal work-space mobility solutions (c.f. VMWare Pocket ACE[1], Mojopac[2], u-PC[3], etc.) are appeared with the advance of virtualization technology and portable storage technology. The personal workspace can be loaded at public PC using above solutions. Especially, we proposed a framework called ubiquitous personal computing environment (u-PC) that supports mobility of personal workspace based on wireless iSCSI network storage in our previous work. However, previous u-PC could support limited applications, because it uses IRP (I/O Request Packet) forwarding technique at filter driver level on Windows operating system. In this paper, we implement OS-level virtualization technology using system call hooking on Windows operating system. It supports personal workspace mobility and covers previous u-PC limitation. Also, it overcomes personal workspace loading overhead that is limitation of other solutions (i.e., VMWare Pocket ACE, Mojopac, etc). We implement a prototype consisting of Windows XP-based host PC and Linux-based mobile device connected via WiNET protocol of UWB. We leverage several use~case models of our framework for proving its usability.

  • With the rapidly evolving information technologies and the Internet, a network-based storage management system is required that can efficiently save, search, modify, and manage digital contents which are increasing by geometric progression. Recently, the SAN became highlighted as a solution to such issues as the integrated data management for heterogeneous systems, the effective utilization of storage systems, and the limitation of data transfer. SAN allows for effective management and sharing of bulk data by directly connecting the storage systems, which used to be independently connected to servers, to the high-speed networks such as optical channels. In this study, I researched on the technologies, standardization and market trends of storage management systems, and performed comparative analyses of the structures, components, and performances for achieving the integration of diverse system storage systems as well as the virtualization of storage systems.

  • As recent smartphone is used around the world, all of the subscribers of the mobile communication is up to 47.7% about 24 million people. Smartphone has a vulnerability to security, and security-related incidents are increased in damage with the smartphone. However, precautions have been made, rather than analysis of the infection of most of the damage occurs after the damaged except for the case of the expert by way of conventional post-countermeasure. In this paper, we implement a mobile-based malware analysis systems apply a virtualization technology. It is designed to analyze the behavior through it. Virtualization is a technique that provides a logical resources to the guest by abstracting the physical characteristics of computing resources. The virtualization technology can improve the efficiency of resources by integrating with cloud computing services to servers, networks, storage, and computing resources to provide a flexible. In addition, we propose a system that can be prepared in advance to buy a security from a user perspective.
