IOV is a technology that supports one or more virtual desktops, and can share a single physical device. In general, the virtual desktop uses the virtual IO devices which are provided by virtualization SW, using SW emulation technology. Virtual desktops that use the IO devices based on SW emulation have a problem in which service quality and performance are declining. Also, they cannot support the high-end application operations such as 3D-based CAD and game applications. In this paper, we propose a physical network separation system using Virtual Desktop Service based on HW direct assignments to overcome these problems. The proposed system provides independent desktops that are used to access the intranet or internet using server virtualization technology in a physical desktop computer for the user. In addition, this system can also support a network separation without network performance degradation caused by inspection of the network packet for logical network separations and additional installations of the desktop for physical network separations.

The current GPU virtualization techniques incur large overheads when executing application programs mainly due to the fine-grain time-sharing scheduling of the GPU among multiple Virtual Machines (VMs). Besides, the current techniques lack of portability, because they include the APIs for the GPU computations in the VM monitor. In this paper, we propose a low overhead and high performance GPU virtualization approach on a heterogeneous HPC system based on the open-source Xen. Our proposed techniques are tailored to the bio applications. In our virtualization framework, we allow a VM to solely occupy a GPU once the VM is assigned a GPU instead of relying on the time-sharing the GPU. This improves the performance of the applications and the utilization of the GPUs. Our techniques also allow a direct pass-through to the GPU by using the IOMMU virtualization features embedded in the hardware for the high portability. Experimental studies using microbiology genome analysis applications show that our proposed techniques based on the direct pass-through significantly reduce the overheads compared with the previous Domain0 based approaches. Furthermore, our approach closely matches the performance for the applications to the bare machine or rather improves the performance.

In this paper, we propose a stack allocation technique of Android Java objects in order to reduce the number of garbage collection which is one of major reason on Android performance degradation when running applications. The proposed technique is to allocate Java objects into stack rather than heap memory. To do so, stacked objects could escape the garbage collection process. We experiment the proposed technique in the latest Android 2.3 version. For the simulation, we take advantage of the well known Java benchmark, Caffeinemark, and our own. The result shows the performance degradation of Dalvik Virtual Machine execution time caused by the stack allocation of Java objects is very slight and the proposed method considerably reduces the frequency of garbage collection. This will increase application performance and give better user interfaces to Android phone users.

Recently, data traffic has exploded due to development of various industries, which causes problems about losing of efficiency and overloaded existing networks. To solve these problems, network slicing, which uses a virtualization technology and provides a network optimized for various services, has received a lot of attention. In this paper, we propose a resource allocation method using credit value. In the method using the clustering technology, an operation for selecting a cluster is performed whenever an allocation request for various services occurs. On the other hand, in the proposed method, the credit value is set by using the residual capacity and balancing so that the slice request can be processed without performing the operation required for cluster selection. To prove proposed method, we perform processing time and balancing simulation. As a result, the processing time and the error factor of the proposed method are reduced by about 13.72% and about 7.96% compared with the clustering method.

자바 언어는 그 객체지향성, 안전성, 유연성으로 인하여 현재 가장 널리 쓰이는 프로그래밍 언어의 하나가 되었으며, 자바 가상머신이 제공해주는 가비지 컬렉터로 인하여 프로그래머는 메모리 관리에 관한 많은 고민이 줄어들었다. 임베디드 환경에서 역시 자바는 강세를 나타내고 있으며 임베디드 환경의 특성을 반영한 가상 머신과 가비지 컬렉션 기법이 요구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 힙이라고 불리는 메모리 영역을 크게 젊은 세대와 늙은 세대의 두 부분으로 나누어서 관리하며 각 세대는 그 특성과 요구사항에 적합하도록 각기 다른 기법을 적용한 가비지 컬렉터를 제안한다. 더불어 효과적인 가비지의 식별을 위한 쓰기 장벽과 2중 필터링 기법을 제안하고 있으며, 일반적인 방법으로 회수가 불가능한 순환적 구조의 가비지를 검출하여 회수하기 위한 이중 검사 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 임베디드 환경의 요구사항인 객체의 빠른 할당, 동작의 실시간성, 모든 가비지의 회수, 단편화 제거, 높은 지역성 등을 모두 만족한다.

본 논문에서는 웹 서버의 부하가 급증하면서 대두된 네트워크 과부하를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 서버분산처리 방식과 RTO(retransmission time out : 재전송타임아웃)간을 조정하는 기법을 이용하였다. 부하 분산을 위한 방법으로는 기존의 NAT 기반의 가상서버 방식과 비슷하나, 기존의 가상서버에서 서버들을 선택하는 스케줄링 방법을 이용하지 않고 네트워크 주소(IP)룰 통한 서버 분산방법을 선택하였다. 이를 위해 Linux 기반의 PC에 라우터론 구축하였고 여기에 실제 IP를 할당하였으며, 라우터를 경유하여 연결된 두개의 서버에는 가상 IP를 할당 내부접속용과 외부접속용으로 나누어 서버 분산이 이루어지게끔 하였다. 이러한 서버 분산은 학교라는 즉. 웹서버의 접속이 내부접속 비율과 외부접속 비율 어느 한쪽으로도 크게 기울지 않는 네트워크 환경을 고려한 것이다. 네트워크의 성능 평가에 있어 가장 기본이 될 수 있는 응답시간은 전송거리와 트래픽량에 비례한다. 이에 외부접속용 서버와 내부접속용 서버 각각에 RTO 값을 다르게 적용시킴으로써 전체적인 Delay의 변화를 확인해 볼 수 있다. 이는 전송거리가 길 경우 생길 수 있는 패킷 손실을 고려한 것으로 패킷 손실로 인하여 재전송이 이루어질 경우 재전송 time이 RTO를 통하여 이루어지며 이러한 RTO의 적절한 값은 전체적인 응답시간에 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것에 기인한 것으로 RTO값을 전송거리가 긴 외부접속용 서버에는 전송거리가 짧은 내부접속용 서버에 비해 길게 적응시킴으로써 전체적인 응답시간의 개선을 유도하였다

In this paper, a dynamic power management system is proposed to reduce energy consumption for multiple clients in cloud computing environments. The proposed system monitors both keyboard and mouse input from the user, available memory, and CPU usage in the virtual machine. If the system detects no keyboard and mouse input for a certain amount of time and both available memory and CPU usage reach predefined threshold value, the manager in the virtual machine orders the client to shutdown the client machine, which results in significant power save. The developed system is applied to the real university computer lab and the performance of the system is evaluated.

In the wireless sensor networks, a sensor node has limited resources such as battery or memory. Hence, the routing protocol used in the wireless sensor networks is required efficient use of resources. In this paper, the VAP(Virtual Address Protocol), ensures the shortest transmission path for data transmission between the sink node and sensor node, is proposed. The VAP is assigned each node virtual address and sub address related with its neighboring nodes. The shortest transmission path to the destination node will be choose by comparing to each other address of its neighboring node. The comparison with other existing routing protocol shows that transmission path and usage of memory resource are minimized. Also transmission delay time of data was reduced.

Through the NFV (Network Function Virtualization), companies such as network service providers and carriers have sought to dramatically reduce CAPEX / OPEX by improving the speed of new service provisioning and flexibility of network construction through the S/W-based devices provided by NFV. One of the most important considerations for establishing an NFV network to provide dynamic services is to determine how to dynamically allocate resources (VNFs), the basic building blocks of network services, in the right place. In this paper, we analyzed the latest research trends on VNF node, link allocation, and scheduling in nodes that are required to provide arbitrary NS in NFV framework. In this paper, we also propose VNF scheduling problems that should be studied further in RA (Resource Allocation).

In order to satisfy the desired QoS level associated with each existing connection, ATM networks require traffic policing during a connection. Users who respect the contract should receive the function of transparent traffic policing without any interruption. However, contract violations should be detected and mediated immediately. So we propose a CAM type policing controller to allow user cell streams to minimize additional delay. The proposed policing scheme controls policing actions including traffic shaping by suitably spacing cells on each virtual circuit. This policing action is based on parallel processing of multiple cell stream which arrive in ATM multiplexed virtual circuits. We have developed an analytical model of the proposed policing scheme to examine the amount of cell loss and delay, which depends on traffic load, the size of policing buffers and minimum spacing cell time.
