In the real-time delivery of multimedia data streams over networks, the interruption of continuity in a single media stream and the mismatching of the data within the same time interval in multimedia data streams transfered in paralled on different channels are considered as the most serious synchronization problems. There are several mechanisms proposed to handle these problems. In this paper, these mechanisms are analyzed and compared in various point of view by the computer simulation. According to the simulation results, it has been shown that the method which uses the segmentation and the method which uses the seperate synchronization channel are superior to the method which uses the synchronization marks in view of the real-time transmission and quality of sevice. On the other hand, it can be seen that the method which uses the segmentation is superior to the method which uses the seperate synchronization channel from a channel utilization's point of view.

기존 OSI 세션계층 동기기능은 문자 위주의 단일 미디어 동기만을 다루고 있기 때문에 audio, video, graphic 등의 멀티미디어 정보통신 서비스를 위해서는 새로운 동기 방식과 프로토콜이 필요하다. 본 논문은 이러한 멀티미디어 동기 서비스를 위해서 개념적인 동기층 환경을 설정하고 이 계층에서 사용하는 '멀티채널, 기준미디어 동기' 기법의 동기층 프리미티브와 동기층 프로토콜을 설계, 제안 하였다. 본 멀티미디어 동기층(MS layer)은 상대편 동기층과의 연결을 설정한 후 미디어별로 별도의 채널을 관리하여 미디어별 특성을 효과적으로 이용할 수 있게 하고, 미디어 프레임 번호를 time stamp처럼 이용함으로써 특정 동기점의 삽입 없이도 손쉽게 동기점을 찾아내고 동기 서비스를 제공한다.

Recently, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) require energy performance and guaranteed delivery delay time, contrarily with previous MAC protocols that aim to high throughput mostly. In order to satisfy the new significant requirements, many MAC protocols of WSN employ and try to enhance the duty cycle mechanism which is energy efficient technique in MAC layer. This duty cycle mechanism is oriented by toggling the transceiver conditions composed of wakeup and sleep states. The synchronous MAC protocols perform the period synchronization process. Hence, these are energy efficient in periodic monitoring environment, but are inefficient in where an event is incurred rarely and infrequently. Otherwise, the performance of asynchronous MAC protocols are contrarily with synchronous protocols. In this paper, we design two models consisting Always-busy and Always-idle ti simplify the general network congestion conditions. Through these models, moreover, we analyze two types MAC protocols in terms of energy efficiency and delay performance by analytical results. Additionally, we also evaluate two MAC protocols with two gongestion models that we designed. By the analytical and simulated results, we provide the general and efficient decision method in which protocols are more appropriate in a certain WSN environment.

Recent advances in wireless networks and low-cost, low-power design have led to active research in large-scale networks of small, wireless, low power sensors and actuators, In large-scale networks, lots of timing-synchronization protocols already exist (such as NTP, GPS), In ad-hoc networks, especially wireless sensor networks, it is hard to synchronize all nodes in networks because it has no infrastructure. In addition, sensor nodes have low-power CPU (it cannot perform the complex computation), low batteries, and even they have to have active and inactive section by periods. Therefore, new approach to time synchronization is needed for wireless sensor networks, In this paper, I propose Energy-Efficient Time Synchronization (EETS) protocol providing network-wide time synchronization in wireless sensor networks, The algorithm is organized two phase, In first phase, I make a hierarchical tree with sensor nodes by broadcasting "Level Discovery" packet. In second phase, I synchronize them by exchanging time stamp packets, And I also consider send time, access time and propagation time. I have shown the performance of EETS comparing Timing-sync Protocol for Sensor Networks (TPSN) and Reference Broadcast Synchronization (RBS) about energy efficiency and time synchronization accuracy using NESLsim.

기 제안된 해쉬 기반 RFID(Radio Frequency Identification) 인증 프로토콜들은 리더와 태그간의 인증을 위해 이용하는 정보가 태그에 고정되어 저장되어 있는 값인지, 동적으로 변경되며 저장되는 값인지에 따라 두 가지 유형으로 분류할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 각각 정적 아이디기반과 동적 아이디기반 인증 프로토콜로 분류하고 이들 각각의 장단점에 대해서 살펴본다. 또한 본 논문에서는 전방향/후방향 위치추적, 동기화, 위장 공격의 개념을 포함하는 새로운 보안 모델을 제시하며 이에 근거해 기 제안된 프로토콜들과 제안하는 프로토콜의 안전성을 분석한다. 제안하는 프로토콜은 기 제안된 프로토콜들에 비해 더욱 강화된 사용자 프라이버시를 제공하면서 태그 및 데이터베이스의 연산량 측면에서도 더 효율적으로 태그를 인식할 수 있다.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have emerged as an attractive and key research area over the last decade. Time synchronization is a vital part of infrastructure for any distributed system. In embedded sensor networks, time synchronization is an essential service for correlating data among nodes and communication scheduling. This is realized by exchanging messages that are time stamped using the local clocks on the nodes. Various time synchronization protocols have been proposed aiming to attain high synchronization accuracy, high efficiency and low communication overhead. However, it requires that the time between resynchronization intervals to be as large as possible to obtain a system which is energy efficient having low communication overhead. This paper presents a simple but effective skew compensation algorithm that measures the skew rate of the sensor nodes with respect to the reference node and calibrates itself to compensate for the difference in the frequencies of the nodes. The proposed method can be incorporated with any existing time synchronization protocol for WSNs.

초기의 동기식 프로토콜의 대표적인 S-MAC 과 T-MAC은 듀티사이클 기법을 사용으로 주기적인 활성과 비활성을 반복함으로써 기존의 무선 MAC 프로토콜에 비하여 에너지 소모를 줄였음을 보였다. 하지만 동기식 프로토콜은 동기화를 위한 별도의 제어패킷이 사용됨으로써 에너지 효율성이 떨어지고 설계 면으로서도 복잡하다는 단점을 갖는다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 비동기 프로토콜인 B-MAC과 X-MAC은 CSMA매체 접근 방식과 프리엠블을 통한 전송을 하는 LPL(Low Power Listeing)기법을 사용하여 별도의 제어패킷의 사용 없이 독립적인 듀티사이클 스케줄을 가지고도 통신이 가능하도록 설계됐다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 비동기 프로토콜인 X-MAC을 기반으로 보다 높은 에너지 효율성을 갖는 무선 센서 네트워크를 위한 에너지 효율적인 비동기 방식의 센서 MAC 프로토콜을 설계한다. 이를 위하여서 송신노드와 수신노드에 프리엠블 넘버링 기법과 가상동기화기법을 설계 및 적용하였으며 대표적인 센서 노드인 TelosB센서모트를 이용하여 기존의 X-MAC 프로토콜과 에너지 효율성을 비교 및 검증한다.

Reference Broadcast Synchronization (RBS)는 무선 센서 네트워크 동기화에 가장 널리 사용되는 프로토콜이다. 공통의 브로드케스트 채널이 존재할 경우 RBS는 상당히 높은 동기화 성능을 보인다. 그러나 RBS는 순간 클럭 동기화 (Instantaneous Clock Synchronization) 방식을 사용기 때문에 동기화 시간에 순간적인 시간 간격이 발생하여 시스템의 불안정을 초래할 수 있다. 또한 RBS는 패킷 손실 보상 기능이 없어 무선 채널 환경이 열악한 경우 동기화 성능의 현저한 저하를 초래할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 RBS의 순간 클럭 동기화에 의한 문제점과 패킷 손실이 BRS 동기화에 미치는 영향에 대해서 분석한다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 RBS를 위한 연속 클럭 동기화 방식과 패킷 손실 보상 방식을 제안하고, 모의실험을 통하여 제안 방식의 성능향상에 대해 검증하고자 한다.

Applying Varying Pseudonym (VP) to design of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) authentication protocol outperforms the other existing approaches in several respects. However, this approach is prone to the well-known denial-ofservice (DOS) attack. In this paper, we examine the de-synchronization problems of VP-based RFID authentication protocols, and propose effective solutions to eliminate such weaknesses. We shall show that the proposed solutions indeed improve the security for these protocols, and moreover, these solutions require 0(1) computational cost for identitying a tag and 0(1) key space on the tag. These excellent performances make them very attractive to many RFID applications.

This study was designed to adopt two estrus synchronization protocols in zebu and crossbred heifers and their effects on pregnancy rate after timed artificial insemination (TAI). A number of 120 cyclic heifers were allotted for two different treatment groups and one control group. Heifers under protocol A were injected with GnRH at first day followed by a single dose of $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ at Day 11 and injection of GnRH at the day of AI; and heifers belonged to protocol B were treated with GnRH, two $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ injections at 11 days apart and injection of GnRH at AI. AI was done at fixed time (within 72~96 hours after $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$ injection) in both protocols and pregnancy was confirmed by rectal palpation on 80~120 days of post AI. In control group; local heifers were conceived higher (30%) proportion than that of crossbred heifers (25%; p<0.05). In protocol A, the local breed were conceived higher (38.9%) proportion compared with crossbred (25%; p<0.05). In protocol B, local breed heifers were conceived higher (38.9%) proportion compared with crossbred heifers (33.3%; p<0.05). The overall pregnancy rate in protocol A and protocol B was 33.3% and 36.6%, respectively. The proportion of pregnancy rate of local heifers (38.9%; Protocol A) was significant (p<0.05) in comparison with local heifers (30%) in control group (p<0.05). The overall pregnancy rate between pooled control group (28.3%) and treatment group (35%) was significantly (p<0.05) differ from each other's. Results of present study concluded that estrus synchronization followed by fixed time AI could be applied for higher pregnancy rate in zebu and crossbred heifers.
