A mobile computing environment is one that support user's mobility through the wireless communication technology. Users access the database and get results what they want by running mobile transactions. To run the mobile transaction correctly and to maintain the consistency I database, we need a concurrency control method to schedule transactions, a caching method to manage the cache, and a recovery method to construct a fault tolerant system. A mobile computing system is based on the existing distributed system, but we can't use recovery methods of the existing distributed system directly because of the user's mobility and the features of wireless media. So this paper presents a recovery mechanism to construct a fault tolerant mobile computing systems. Especially. we develop and analyze a recovery algorithm for server failure among types of failure which can arise in mobile computing environments.

The WiscKey database, which optimizes overhead by compaction of the LSM tree-based Key-Value database, stores the value in a separate file, and stores only the key and value addresses in the database. Each time an fsync system call function is used to ensure data integrity in the process of storing values. In previously conducted studies, workload performance was reduced by up to 5.8 times as a result of performing the workload without calling the fsync system call function. However, it is difficult to ensure the data integrity of the database without using the fsync system call function. In this paper, to reduce the overhead of the fsync system call function while performing workloads on the WiscKey database, we use NVDIMM caching techniques to ensure data integrity while improving the performance of the WiscKey database.

Broadcast-based data delivery has attracted a lot of attention as an efficient way of disseminating data to very large client populations. The main motivation of broadcast-based information systems (BBISs) is that the number of clients that they serve can grow arbitrarily large without any effect on their performance. The performance of BBISs depends mainly on client caching strategies and on data broadcast scheduling mechanisms. This paper addresses the former issue and proposes a new client cache management scheme, named 2Q-CFP, that is suitable to BBISs. This paper also evaluates the performance of 2Q-CFP on the basis of a simulation model. The performance results indicate that 2Q-CFP scheme shows superior performances over GRAY, LRU and CF in the average response time.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a critical Internet infrastructure that provides name to address mapping services. In the past decade, Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks have targeted the DNS infrastructure and threaten to disrupt this critical service. While the flooding DoS attacks may be alleviated by the DNS caching mechanism, we show in this paper that flooding DoS attacks utilizing name error queries is capable of bypassing the cache of resolvers and thereby impose overwhelming flooding attacks on the name servers. We analyze the impacts of such DoS attacks on both name servers and resolvers, which are further illustrated by May 19 China's DNS Collapse. We also propose the detection and defense approaches for protecting DNS servers from such DoS attacks. In the proposal, the victim zones and attacking clients are detected through monitoring the number of corresponding responses maintained in the negative cache. And the attacking queries can be mitigated by the resolvers with a sample proportion adaptive to the percent of queries for the existent domain names. We assess risks of the DoS attacks by experimental results. Measurements on the request rate of DNS name server show that this kind of attacks poses a substantial threat to the current DNS service.

The speed of hard disk which is based on mechanical operation is more slow than processor. The growth of processor speed is rapid by semiconductor technology, but the growth of disk speed which is based on mechanical operation is not enough. Buffer cache in main memory and disk cache in disk controller have been used in computer system to solve the speed gap between processor and I/O subsystem. In this paper, an efficient buffer cache and disk cache management scheme was proposed to restrict duplicated disk block between buffer cache and disk cache. The performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated by simulation.

현재 지리정보 기술의 세계적인 추세는, ISO 나 OGC 등의 국제 표준기구에서 제시하고 있는 상호 운용성을 지원하기 위한 3계층 구조의 인터넷 GIS로 나아가고 있다. 특히 OGC 에서는 인터넷 환경에서 표준 인터페이스를 통해 다양한 데이타 소스의 지리정보를 접근하여 기존의 웹 브라우저로 표현하는 구조의 웹 매핑 테스트베드를 제시하고 있다. 3계층 구조의 인터넷 GIS에서의 문제점은 각 계층간의 통신 횟수와 데이타 전송량이 많고, 미들웨어 컴포넌트에서의 데이터 변환으로 인해 속도가 저하되는 것이다. 데이타 전송량과 데이타 변환량으로 인한 문제점은 미들웨어 계층에서 공간 데이터를 캐슁함으로써 해결될 수 있다. 본 논문의 핵심 아이디어는 미들웨어 컴포넌트들 사이에 공유 캐쉬를 두고, 여러 클라이언트들이 공통적으로 접근하는 데이타를 중심으로 캐쉬를 관리하는 것이다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 기법은 질의 영역에 대해 확장된 영역을 캐슁함으로써, 하나의 클라이언트 입장에서 근접한 영역의 질의에 대한 사용자 응답 시간을 줄일 수 있다. 또한 캐쉬 교체를 위해 접근 빈도수 중심의 교체 함수를 취함으로써 여러 클라이언트들에 대해 데이타의 재사용성을 높일 수 있다.

The wide spread of the Internet service has brought in web GIS development. But, there are problems of the user access latencies, the network traffic, and the server overload in Internet Geographic Information System because spatial data are transferred in large volumes. In this paper, I propose a cache algorithm on client side to solve the above problems. The proposed algorithm demonstrates the performance improvement over known studies by utilizing unit time and spatial proximity. In addition, this paper conducts a performance evaluation to measure the improvement in algorithm efficiency and analyzes the results of the performance evaluation. When spatial data queries are conducted, according to our performance evaluation, hit rate has been improved over the existing algorithms.

For several years, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies have been improving. However, some hurdles remain that slow down the distribution of VR and AR devices, such as head-mounted display (HMD), and related consumer content. One issue is VR motion sickness, which has been experienced by users using 360 degree VR content via HMD. This paper discusses the related international standardization work that classifies the factors causing VR sickness, and proposes the process for VR sickness level evaluation. Among the factors causing VR sickness, many research institutes regard minimizing MTP (Motion-to-Photon) latency as the key enabler to mitigate VR sickness. Thus, this paper introduces research trends of MTP latency measurement and MTP latency mitigation. This paper categorizes the research on MTP latency measurement into 2 categories of hardware-based approach and software code-level approach. The 2 approaches have different pros and cons depending on use-case, purpose, and architecture of each multimedia system. The pros and cons are addressed in this paper. Additionally, the research on mitigating MTP latency with diverse strategies such as proactive computing, caching, and edge server technology is explained, and compared to conventional technologies, shows improved performance.

The interest in the service of 3D mobile contents becomes larger due to the technological advance of production and services of mobile contents and the appearance of the exclusive mobile phone for 3D game. Therefore, the researches about the efficient mobile services of large 3D contents are wanted in the circumstances of the narrow bandwidth and the burden of the connection charge of wireless mobile communications. In this paper, we suggest a strategy of caching for looking up and downloading the 3D marine characters efficiently and a system model for mobile service of 3D marine characters. The suggested system is designed for serving efficiently the high-quality 3D characters through the wireless mobile communications using the database on the 3D marine objects of cyber aquarium constructed for the services through the wired internet.
