This study develops an analytical model for the delay analysis of real-time data in the token-passing service of Foundation Fieldbus(FF). Using the analytical model, this study proposes a network design scheme of FF Two design criteria are introduced in this study; one is the average delay of real-time data, and the other is the maximum allowable delay of real-time data. The network design scheme determines the network parameters that satisfies the performance requirements given by these design criteria.

Token ring systems which control to switch the data stream of networks by passing the token have been widely used to medium access controls in many ring or bus topology LANs. The system could be modeled for analysis as single-server-multi-queue system of the cyclic service method. These concepts could be expanded to multi-token ring systems interconnected with single ring consisting of bridges implemented simply to be stored and transmitted. In the proposal for the performance analysis of the interconnected token ring system, in has been assumed M/G/1 queueing model that frame arrivals are the Poisson process at each station queue and frame sizes are independently and identically distributed. And the average time delays were analyzed mathematically for arbitrary frame transferred from source station to destination area. The time delay of the frame transmission could be explained as the sum of the average time which the token passed from arbitrary position to source station, such as the waiting time in the source station transferring the previous arrival frames, and the propagation time from source station to interdestinated point. These delays were given as the sum of the duration from inner and outer bridge queues, the time delays from inner and outer bridge queues, and the time from outer bridge queue to destination station. These results were investigated by varing parameters effected to total time delays. In the results, those factors to be effected to dominant the total time delays were increased were in the cases of the high arrival rates and the high ration of destination of the other outerring. The system were shown the time delays increased exponentially in spite of the priority service policy. In order to decreasing the number of outerrings and increasing the number of nodes in backbone relatively, so the systems could be decreased the total delay in the interconnected token ring system.

In this paper, we propose an Aggregate Three Color Marker without per flow management which is required for an Edge router to improve End-to-End QoS of Assured Service in DiffServ. Proposed Aggregate Three Color Marker is used with the Adaptive RIO-DC scheme to achieve the minimum rate guarantee without per flow management. Assuming that the admission control for Assured Service has been performed, proposed Aggregate Three Color Marker measures incoming In-profile traffic rate at the output link of an edge router using a token-bucket with a token rate equal to the sum of contracted rates of admitted flows passing the edge router. If there are token losses from the token bucket, out-of-profile packets are promoted to Yellow packets within the aggregate traffic profile. And yellow packets are demoted to out-of-profile packets at the input link to an Edge router fer the purpose of fairness maintenance. In-profile packets and Yellow packets are processed identically at the RIO-DC buffer management scheme in our proposed method. Simulation results show that through using proposed Aggregate Three Color Marker with the Adaptive RIO-DC scheme, the minimum rate guarantee for Assured Service can be achieved without per flow management at multiple DiffServ domains.

In this paper, for the purpose of constructing LAN(Local Area Network) with Token ring type Star-wired ring method, we implemented an in board network adapter and a concentrator using microprocessor. Using cconcentrato's communication controlling function, the concentator prevents a break of communication by by-passing the fault network adapter. Because, in the data transfer period, a concentrator recognized the network adapter at transmit and receiving side to construct single by -pass line and reduces ring latency time at both sides, this method can keep a high throughput in high and low load. Being considered the result of performance evaluation for the method our study employed, high throughput can be obtained.

Digital communication networks have become a core technology in advanced building automation systems. BACnet(${\underline{B}}uilding$ ${\underline{A}}utomation$ and ${\underline{C}}ontrol$ ${\underline{net}}works$) is a standard data communication protocol designed specifically for building automation and control systems. BACnet adopts Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MS/TP) protocol as one of its field level networks. In this study, we introduce a method of implementing bandwidth allocation scheme in the MS/TP protocol. The bandwidth allocation scheme improves the capability of real-time communication of the original MS/TP protocol. The bandwidth allocation scheme introduced in this paper can be easily implemented in the existing MS/TP protocol with a slight modification. In this study, we actually developed the hardware and firmware of MS/TP module in which bandwidth allocation scheme is implemented.

In general, a deadlock in flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs) is caused by a resource limitation and the diversity of routings. However, the deadlock of industrial controllers such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) can occur from different causes compared with those in general FMSs. The deadlock of PLCs is usually caused by an error signal between PLCs and manufacturing systems. In this paper, we propose a deadlock detection and recovery (DDR) algorithm to resolve the deadlock problem of PLCs at design stage. This paper employs the MAPN (modified automation Petri net), MTPL (modified token passing logic), and ECC (efficient code conversion) algorithm to model manufacturing systems and to convert a Petri net model into a desired LD (ladder diagram). Finally, an example of manufacturing systems is provided to illustrate the proposed DDR algorithm.

In this paper, an approximate sojourn time distribution is obtained for cyclic service systems. We consider symmetric and limited service systems in which each queue has an infinite capacity. The combined service time is defined which consists of the frame service time and server waiting time that is approximated by two cases of the uniform and exponential distributions. The approximate sojourn time distribution is obtained from the Pollaczek-Khinchine formula where the combined service time is used for the service time in the M/G/I model. And some numerical examples are given to validate the suggested approximate analysis.

MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification) is a communications standard of MAP (Manufacturing Automation Protocol), which is a Network Protocol for Industrial Automation. In the environment of Mini-MAP, MMS is situated in the application layer and on the LLC (Logical Link Control) layer. In this paper, MMS software is implemented on the basis of ISO DIS 9506. The implemented software was tested with Token Passing Bus Network Interface Unit, which was designed in our laboratory and performs the actions of layer 1 and 2.

In this study, we examined the validity of bandwidth allocation scheme using simulation models. The results from the simulation experiment show that the proposed scheme satisfies the requirements of real-time communication.
