The routing algorithm many used in the wireless sensor network features the clustering method to reduce the amount of data transmission from the energy efficiency perspective. However, the clustering method results in high energy consumption at the cluster head node. Dynamic clustering is a method used to resolve such a problem by distributing energy consumption through the re-selection of the cluster head node. Still, dynamic clustering modifies the cluster structure every time the cluster head node is re-selected, which causes energy consumption. In other words, the dynamic clustering approaches examined in previous studies involve the repetitive processes of cluster head node selection. This consumes a high amount of energy during the set-up process of cluster generation. In order to resolve the energy consumption problem associated with the repetitive set-up, this paper proposes the Round-Robin Cluster Header (RRCH) method that fixes the cluster and selects the head node in a round-robin method The RRCH approach is an energy-efficient method that realizes consistent and balanced energy consumption in each node of a generated cluster to prevent repetitious set-up processes as in the LEACH method. The propriety of the proposed method is substantiated with a simulation experiment.

Database sharing system (DSS) refers to a system for high performance transaction processing. In DSS, the processing nodes are locally coupled via a high speed network and share a common database at the disk level. Each node has a local memory and a separate copy of operating system. To reduce the number of disk accesses, the node caches database pages in its local memory buffer. In this paper, we propose a dynamic transaction routing algorithm to balance the load of each node in the DSS. The proposed algorithm is novel in the sense that it can support node-specific locality of reference by utilizing the primary copy authority assigned to each node; hence, it can achieve better cache hit ratios and thus fewer disk I/Os. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm avoids a specific node being overloaded by considering the current workload of each node. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, we develop a simulation model of the DSS, and then analyze the simulation results. The results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing algorithms in the transaction processing rate. Especially the proposed algorithm shows better performance when the number of concurrently executed transactions is high and the data page access patterns of the transactions are not equally distributed.

OXC는 정적인 점대점 광전송망에서 동적인 그물형 전광통신망으로 진화하기 위하여 망에 도입되어야 할 새로운 광네트워크 장비이다. OXC는 링크 단위의 스위칭을 하는 FXC 파장 단위의 스위칭 기능이 있으나 파장 변환 기능이 없는 WSXC, 그리고 파장 변환 기능이 있는 WIXC로 구분할 수 있으며, 이들간의 hybrid 도 가능하다. OXC 하드웨어의 중심을 이루는 것은 광스위치이다. MEMS 기술, 열광학 효과를 이용한 광도파로 기술, 전반사를 이용하는 bubble 스위치 기술 등을 사용하여 개발이 진행되고 있다. 현재까지는 이 중 3D MEMS 기술이 대용량 스위치를 구성할 가능성이 있는 기술로 받아들여지고 있다. OXC를 구성하는데 있어서 또 다른 핵심적인 기술에는 파장변환 기술이 있다. 광전 파장변환기와 전광 파장변환기 방식이 현재 연구되고 있으며 초기에는 광전변환 방식이 OXC 시스템에 적용될 가능성이 높다. 전광 파장변환기의 시스템 적용을 위해서는 좀 더 많은 연구가 필요할 것으로 보인다. OXC를 사용하는 전광통신망에서 광스위치 기술 이상으로 많은 논란이 되는 것은 망의 운용 문제이다. 현재 가장 많이 언급되는 모델은 오버레이 모델과 피어 모델이다. 오버레이 모델은 클라이언트/서버 개념에 기반한 모델인 반면 피어 모델은 광 네트워크 장비와 기존 장비를 대등한 관계로 정의한 모델이다. 각각의 모델에 대해서는 표준화 단체에 따라 약간씩 다른 입장을 취하고 있지만 상호 간에 수용 또는 타협할 점이 많다고 볼 수 있다. OXC를 포함하는 전광 통신망을 운용할 때에는 동적 연결 설정 및 해제를 위한 새로운 신호 방식이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 ITU-T 및 OIF에서 UNI와 NNI등의 인터페이스와 여기에 사용되는 신호 방식을 논의하고 있다. 그 외에도 전광 통신망 운용에 필요한 라우팅 및 파장할당 방법과 OXC를 이용한 그물형 망에서의 보호 및 복구에 대한 연구도 활발히 진행되고 있다.

IEEE 802.11 표준은 채널 상태에 따라 다양한 전송 속도를 지원하며, 무선랜 환경에서 이러한 특성을 활용하는 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 그러나, 모바일 애드 혹 네트워크 환경에서 다중전송속도를 활용하는 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 본 논문은 모바일 애드 혹 네트워크에서 동적으로 다중전송속도를 활용하여 채널 효율을 높이는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 MAC 계층과 네트워크 계층 중간에 위치하며 각 계층에 독립적으로 동작한다. 라우팅 프로토콜에서 결정한 다음 홉에 더불어, 제안 기법은 더 빠른 전송 속도를 갖는 중계 경로를 탐색한다. 또한, 패킷의 크기에 따라 경쟁 부하를 고려하여 선택적으로 전송 경로를 변경한다. 모의 실험을 통한 성능 평가는 제안 기법의 우수한 성능을 입증한다.

In this paper, new data centric storage that is dynamically adapted to the change of work load is proposed. The proposed data centric storage distributes the load of hot spot area by using multilevel grid technique. Also, the proposed method is able to use existing routing protocol such as GPSR (Greedy Perimeter Stateless Routing) with small changes. Through simulation the proposed method enhances the lifetime of sensor networks over one of the state-of-the-art data centric storages. We implement the proposed method based on a operating system for sensor networks, and evaluate the performance through running based on a simulation tool.

The key of USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology is low power wireless communication technology and proper resource allocation technology for efficient routing. The distinguished resource allocation method is needed for efficient routing in sensor network. To solve this problems, we propose an algorithm that can be adopted in USN with making up for weak points of PQ and WRR in this paper. The proposed algorithm produces the control discipline by the fuzzy theory to dynamically assign the weight of WRR scheduler with checking the Queue status of each class in sensor network. From simulation results, the proposed algorithm improves the packet loss rate of the EF class traffic to 6.5% by comparison with WRR scheduling method and that of the AF4 class traffic to 45% by comparison with PQ scheduling method.

This paper presents a fast and scalable re-routing algorithm that adapts to dynamically changing networks. The proposed algorithm integrates Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm with the genetic algorithm. Dijkstra's algorithm is used to define the predecessor array that facilitates the initialization process of the genetic algorithm. After that, the genetic algorithm re-searches the optimal path through appropriate genetic operators under dynamic traffic situations. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm produces routes with less traveling time and computational overhead than pure genetic algorithm-based approaches as well as the standard Dijkstra's algorithm for large-scale networks.

MPLS(Multiprotocol Label Switching) is regarded as a core technology for migrating to the next generation Internet. In this paper, we propose an dynamic flow admission control supporting DiffServ(Differentiated Services) to provide QoS in MPLS networks. Our proposed model dynamically adjusts the amount of admissible traffic based on transmittable capacity over one outgoing port. It then transmits the Packets while avoiding congested area resulting traffic loss. Ingress LSRs find out the congested area by collecting network state information at QoS state update for QoS routing table. Our Proposed model manages the resource efficiently by protecting the waste of resources that is a critical Problem of DiffServ and makes much more flows enter the network to be served.

TCP(Transmission Control Protocol)는 흐름제어와 오류제어 그리고 혼잡제어 등을 통해 목적지까지 효율적으로 데이터를 전송하는 프로토콜이다. 최근 라우터 성능 및 라우팅 알고리즘 등의 발달로 인해 패킷이 비순차적으로 전송되는 패킷 재배치(packet reordering)가 빈번한 발생하여 TCP 성능 저하의 주요 원인이 되고 있다. 패킷 재배치가 TCP 로 하여금 불필요한 재전송(Spurious Retransmission) 및 혼잡제어를 수행하도록 하기 때문이다. 본 논문에서는 TCP 의 신속 재전송(Fast Retransmission)의 중복 응답 임계값(dupthresh)를 동적으로 조절함으로써, 불필요한 재전송 및 혼잡제어의 발생횟수를 효율적으로 줄이는 TCP-DAD(TCP Dynamically Adjusted Dupthresh)기법을 제안한다. 본 논문은 NS-2를 이용한 시뮬레이션을 통해 TCP-DAD 가 다른 TCP 메커니즘보다 평균적으로 약 34%의 성능 향상을 보임을 증명하였다.

A multicast tree includes several, possibly a large number of, paths connecting source-receiver pairs, and network failure may disable part of the multicast tree. Reconstruction of the entire multicast tree to recover from a component failure is highly undesirable, because some group members have to suffer service disruptions even though the communication paths to/from them are not affected by the failure. To limit reconfiguration region and to maximize the likelihood of successful reconfiguration, we propose and evaluate a pre-planned reconfiguration policy for QoS multicast sessions. Specifically, we equip a reconfiguration path (RP) with each end-to-end path that connects a source-receiver pair in the multicast tree, and reserve resources in advance along the RPs. Efficient resource-sharing techniques are applied to reduce the amount of resources reserved for RPs but not used in the absence of failures. This way, we prevent uncontrolled competition among different multicast sessions which may simultaneously try to recover from failures. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme using simulation on randomly-generated networks. We use the shortest-path routing for QoS multicast sessions, and simulate both source-based and shared multicast trees. The evaluation results indicates that successful pre-planned reconfiguration can be achieved for all group members with reasonable overhead. Our scheme is also shown to adapt well to dynamic changes of group membership.
