방송과 초고속인터넷 서비스를 동시에 제공할 수 있는 HFC(Hybrid Fiber Coaxial) 망은 상/하향이 비대칭 구조이며, 하향속도에 비해 상향속도가 1/10 수준이어서 상향 트래픽이 과다하게 생성될 경우 인터넷속도 지연이 발생한다. 지연에 민감한 VoIP 서비스의 품질보장 방안으로는, DOCSIS(Data Over Cable System Interface Specification) 1.1 기반의 상향 스케쥴링 기능을 이 용한 VoCM(Voice Over Cable Modem)이 있다. 그러나 별도의 VoCM을 사용해야 하며 아날로그 전화기를 사용해 IP 기반의 VoIP 단말을 사용할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 일반 CM(Cable Modem)에 DOCSIS 1.1 Config File을 이용하여 VoIP 품질을 보장할 경우 별도의 트래픽 대역을 항상 점유해야 하는 단점이 있다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 효율적 대역폭 이용과 단말장비에 종속적이지 않은 방안을 제안하고 일반 CM을 통한 유무선 환경하에서 Dynamic QoS(Quality Of Service)를 제공할 수 있는 PCMM(Packet Cable MultiMedia) 적용 방안 및 시험결과에 대해 고찰하고자 한다.

As a standard of WMNs, IEEE 802.11s supports two kinds of MAC algorithm: a mandatory EDCA used by IEEE 802.11e and an optional MCCA. While EDCA classifies traffic according to four Access Categories (AC) and offer differentiated service using a classified priority, MCCA can guarantee the specific bandwidth of users with a TDMA-style bandwidth reservation scheme between mesh routers. In case that a flow is VBR traffic of a multimedia application, MCCA has disadvantage that the reserved bandwidth does not be used entirely, though it guarantees required bandwidth of users and fairness using bandwidth reservation with neighbors' node. In this paper, we showed a problem that is wastes the reserved bandwidth when MCCA is enabled and proposed a new scheduling algorithm to prevent waste of bandwidth and to improve network utilization effectively, named Resource Sharing Round Robin (RSRR) scheduling. Finally we showed simulation results that performance of a proposed RSRR is better than the legacy MCCA through NS-2 simulation.

This paper proposes an efficient and differentiated MAC scheduling algorithm for Bluetooth systems. The proposed algorithm guarantees QoS (Quality of Service) requirement of each master-slave pair or application. Conventional MAC scheduling algorithms for Bluetooth take priority of each pair into consideration and demonstrate relatively reasonable performance. However, their performances may depend on traffic characteristic, or they are limited by overheads for signaling. In this paper, we propose a new MAC scheduling algorithm superior to the conventional algorithms from the viewpoints of throughput, delay, and supporting QoS. Our proposed algorithm is evaluated via computer simulations under various environments and compared with the conventional scheduling algorithms. Simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm shows better performance than the existing algorithms, and can support the QoS demand of each pair.

In this paper, a packet scheduling scheme that supports real-time traffic having multi-level delay constraints in OFDMA systems is proposed. The proposed scheme pursues to satisfy the delay constraint first, and then manage the residual radio resource in order to enhance the overall throughput. A parameters named tolerable delay time (TDT) is newly defined to deal with the differentiated behaviors of packet scheduling according to the delay constraint level. Assuming that the packets violating the delay constraint are discarded, the proposed scheme is evaluated in terms of the packet loss probability, throughput, channel utilization. It is then compared with existing schemes for real-time traffic support such as the Exponential Scheduling (EXP) scheme, the Modified Largest Weighted Delay First (M-LWDF) scheme, and the Round robin scheme. The numerical results show that the proposed scheduling scheme performs much better than the aforementioned scheduling schemes in terms of the packet loss probability, while slightly better in terms of throughput and channel utilization.

In order to control the flow of traffics in ATM networks and optimize the usage of network resources, an efficient control mechanism is necessary to cope with congestion and prevent the degradation of network performance caused by congestion. In this paper, Buffered Leaky Bucket which applies the same control scheme to a variety of traffics requiring the different QoS(Quality of Service) and Neural Networks lead to the effective buffer utilization and QoS enhancement in aspects of cell loss rate and mean transfer delay. And the cell scheduling algorithms such as DWRR and DWEDF for multiplexing the incoming traffics are enhanced to get the better fair delay. The network congestion information from cell scheduler is used to control the predicted traffic loss rate of Neural Leaky Bucket, and token generation rate and buffer threshold are changed by the predicted values. The prediction of traffic loss rate by neural networks can enhance efficiency in controlling the cell loss rate and cell transfer delay of next incoming cells and also be applied for other traffic controlling schemes. Computer simulation results performed for random cell generation and traffic prediction show that QoSs of the various kinds of traffcis are increased.

In this paper, we propose WRR cell scheduling algorithm that improve current smoothing scheme. In proposed cell scheduling algorithm, using the number of practical input cell in each VC and variable thats indicate weight and state of queue, we could service VC of buffer efficiently that input cells over weight value and input cells smaller than weight value. And, we could service multimedia data by providing remained bandwidth after that allocate to real time traffic with non-real time traffic. In this result, the number of serviceable average cells were increased and length of buffer was decreased. Through the computer simulation, we evaluated the performance of proposed algorithm. According to the results, the proposed algorithm showed good performance.

Diff-Serv(DS) is a mechanism by which network service providers can offer differing levels of network service to different traffic, in so providing quality of service(QoS) to their customers. Because this mechanism has been deployed just for fixed hosts with the Token Bucket mechanism according to AggF(Aggregate Flow) instead of each flow, DS can not suggest effective usability of traffic resources. In this paper, we use WFQ mechanism for traffic conditioner and scheduling method monitoring the AggF and the results will be used to control the next flows coming in TC. So it will control traffic rate dynamically and suggest efficient usability of bandwidth.

Every MAC (Medium Access Control) sub-layers of IEEE 802.11x, including IEEE 802.11e, defines Connection-based and CF (Contention Free)-based service functions in common. In this paper, a New-CF method is proposed. In the proposed method, conventional Round Robin method, which is used as a polling method by IEEE 802.11x PCF (Point Coordination Function) or IEE 802.11e HCCA, is modified to give weights to channels with heavier traffic load and to provide those weighted channels with more services. Based on NS-2 simulations, it is verified the proposed method shows better throughput in general, particularly under unbalanced traffic load conditions.

Recently there are increasing needs for Internet and various kinds of contents. These traffics for various contents need more amount of data to provide high-quality information and require various QoS depending on the characteristics of contents. However, current Internet service supports BE (Best Effort) service only, therefore IntServ (Integrated Service) scheme and DiffServ (Differentiated Service) scheme are represented to support QoS in IP layer. Moreover, while wireless Internet is getting popular, MAC(Medium Access Control) is also becoming important. This is due to the fact that wireless access, resource allocation and packet scheduling, which are done in another layers before, are performed in MAC layer in many new wireless systems. This paper describes new scheme that provides QoS taking into account the traffic characteristics over Mobile IPv6 network based on IEEE 802.11e EDCF and evaluates the performance through computer simulation.

고속의 입력 큐를 가진 스위치는 출력 큐를 가진 스위치보다 더 경제적이며 단순하다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 입력 큐를 가진 스위치는 성능을 크게 저하시키는 HOL Blocking이라는 문제를 가지고 있다. 입력 큐 스위치는 랜덤 어세스 입력 큐와 셀 스케쥴링 알고리즘을 사용한다면 휠씬 좋은 성능을 얻을 수 있다. 많은 입력 큐 ATM 스위치의 Self-Firing셀 스케쥴러가 제안되어 왔으나, 여러 가지 입력포트와 분포에서 측정된 성능이 서로 크게 차이가 난다는 점에서 공정하지 못한 것이었다. 본 논문에서 우리는 어떠한 트애픽 분포에서도 공정성을 가지는 셀 스케쥴러를 제안하며, 제안한 스케쥴러가 비록 트래픽이 비균일 분포일지라도 공정성이 유지되는 것을 모의 실험을 통하여 증명한다.
