In this paper, we propose an extension method of the BR2K technique for enhancing the robustness of blockchain application services. The BR2K (Blockchain application, Replication & Recovery technique using Kubernetes) technique was recently developed to support the robustness of blockchain services through service replication and rapid restart. The proposed technique extends the existing BR2K technique to provide a state version, which is meta-information about the service state, and a method for safely managing it, and use the state version to determine the timing for service state recovery. Also, the technique provides systematic service state backup for service recovery and joining of new service nodes by utilizing the version information and the service registry which acts as a service recovery center in the BR2K technique. Based on this, it is possible to support new service nodes to join the replication service with consistency. As a result, new service nodes can be quickly added to the BR2K service in operation, enhancing the robustness of the BR2K service. In addition, the extended method is applied to the pilot blockchain application service and tested in a Kubernetes environment composed of virtual machines to confirm the validity of service replication consistency and rapid service recovery in the event of node failures.

In this paper, we propose a technique for blockchain service replication and recovery using kubernetes(BR2K) that robustly executes blockchain services based on replication and supports systematic recovery in case of the service failure. Blockchain services are being developed and applied in various fields such as administration, finance, and medical systems based on the features of blockchain, such as decentralization, high security, and data integrity. In such areas where service continuity is important, it is necessary to provide robustness for execution of blockchain services, and a recovery plan for service failure is also required. To this end, BR2K provides an execution replication technique that systematically supports the sustainable execution of blockchain application services. Also, it introduces a robust container registry based on the blockchain service registry, systematically supporting the recovery of service failures by using it. In addition, Truffle, a blockchain service development framework, is extended to utilize the Kubernetes container management tool, and BR2K provides a technique for rapidly deploying blockchain services using the extended framwork.

With the rapidly increasing demand of traffic applications, the need to support seamless and robust multimedia services in the Vehicular Ad hoc Network is growing. Fast handover for the MIPv6 (FMIPv6) developed to solve the MIPv6's problem as well as Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) for basic mobility protocol have been developed to support seamless handover in mobile environment. However, MIPv6 and FMIPv6 are useless for Quality-of-Service (QoS) services such as multimedia applications due to the long handover latency and the packet loss problem. In this paper, we propose a seamless and robust handover scheme that supports multimedia services in Vehicular Ad hoc Network using oCoA and background DAD. Through performance evaluation, we show that the proposed scheme is more proper for Vehicular Ad hoc Network than other schemes.

In this paper, we propose a robust execution scheme for Ethereum blockchain application services which provide continuous services and support recovery even in the case of failures of those services. As of now, blockchain services are rapidly expanding to all industries and being combined with various infrastructure services of public institutions. But if these services fail in disastrous situations such as earthquakes, floods and terrors or various hacking attacks, the aftermath is very serious and its side effects are difficult to assess. To resolve this issue, we develop the service registry as a smart contract of the Ethereum blockchain, which provides useful information on the services to users even in disasters. With the help of the service registry, we also present a method of replicating services on the basis of the ETCD distributed storage system. The proposed scheme is confirmed by the test service developed by the proposed techniques.

ABR서비스는 ATM 망의 이용률을 증대시키고, 매우 버스트한 트래픽 응용을 지원하기위해 설계되었다. ATM 포럼에서는 망에서 소스의 셀 전송률을 조절하고 셀 손실을 최소화하기 위한 ABR 서비스 표준으로 폐쇄루프와 전송률기반의 폭주 제어 알고리즘을 채택하였다. 이러한 폭주 제어 알고리즘 중에서 대표적인 것이 ERIVCA(Explicit Rare Indication for Congestion Avoidance) 이다. 본 논문에서는 ERIVCA 의 견고성, 공평성 LAN/WAN 환경에 대해서 성능을 시험하고. 그 결과로 성능을 향상시키기 위해 개선된 최대-최소 구조를 제공한다. 또한 제안된 구조에 대한 시뮬레이션을 하여 기존 ERIVCA 알고리즘의 성능과 비교 분석한다.

이동통신시스템에서 RNC의 MCP는 호 처리를 담당하는 부분으로, 신뢰도와 실시간성이 요구된다. MCP는 높은 견고성을 갖도록 구현되지만 다소간의 오류 율(Fault late)은 존재할 수밖에 없으므로 프로세서를 이중화하여 활성화된 프로세서가 장애를 일으키더라도 대기중인 프로세서가 연속적인 서비스를 제공할 수 있어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이동통신에서 프로세서 이중화 시스템을 설계하고자 한다.

In this paper, we introduce InfoDID, a robust user information management service based on DID that manages user information reliably. Since blockchain technology provides an environment in which data can be handled transparently on a decentralized basis, various services using blockchain are currently being developed As the importance of user's personal information has recently emerged, the DID technology is receiving attention. The technology allows a user to control his or her information through decentralized identifiers, and various information management services are being tried based on the technology. Using blockchain-based DID technology, InfoDID reliably controls personal information requested frequently, helping users to provide their information to other services more conveniently. In addition, to support service continuity, InfoDID uses BR2K technique that provides robust execution of blockchain application services, so that even partial service failures can be systematically recovered. To facilitate this operation, we present a replication status monitoring tool that can continuously check the replication states of blockchain application services running in association with the BR2K technique such as InfoDID.

In order to efficiently provide IP based Wireless Broadband services in Mobile WiMAX, schemes for more efficiently utilizing a limited bandwidth in radio links are needed. Robust Header Compression (ROHC), a standard header compression scheme proposed by IETF, Bi-directional Optimistic (O) mode provides higher compression efficiency and robustness compared with Payload Header Suppression (PHS) which is an optional header compression scheme for mobile WiMAX [1, 2]. However, if consecutive packet losses occur because of a Shadow Region of Mobile WiMAX or bit errors, header decompression failure rate of the ROHC O mode increases due to inconsistency of the compression information between the Compressor and the Decompressor. Therefore, a complementary mechanism is needed. In this paper, we propose an approach for the dynamic adjustment of an optimistic parameter, which has an effect on both the compression efficiency and the robustness, for improving the performance of ROHC O mode. We also analyze the performance of the proposed approach using an OPNET simulator.
