  • Picture Archiving and Communication Systems(PACS) provide an integration of digital imaging information in a hospital, which encompasses various imaging equipment, viewing workstations, database archive systems, and a high speed fiber optic network. One of the most important requirements for integration is the standardization of communication protocols to connect devices from different vendors. Since 1985, the ACR-NEMA standard provides a hardware interface, a set of software commands, and a consistent set of data formats for point-to-point interconnection of medical equipment. However, it has been shown to be inadequate for PACS networking environments, because of its point-to-point nature and its inflexibility to allow other services and protocols in the future. Based on previous experience of PACS developments in The University of Arizona, a new communication protocol for PACS networks has been suggested to the ACR-NEMA Working Group VI. The defined PACS protocol is intended to facilitate the development of PACS's capable of interfacing with other hospital information systems. Also, it is intended to allow the creation of diagnostic information data bases which can be interrogated by a variety of distributed devices. A particularly important goal is to support communications in a multivendor environment. The new protocol specifications are defined primarily as a combination of the International Organization for Standardization / Open Systems Interconnection (ISO/OSI) protocols and the data format portion of ACR-NEMA standard. This paper addresses the specification and implementation of the proposed PACS protocol into network node. The protocol specification, which covers Presentation, Session, Transport, and Network layers, is summarized briefly. The implementation has natural extentions to Global PACS environments. The protocol implementation is discussed based on our implementation efforts in the UNIX Operating System Environment. At the same time, results of performance evaluation are presented to demonstrate the implementation of defined protocol. The testing of performance analysis is performed on the PACS prototype node.

  • As the IoT (Internet of Things) era is activated, a lot of information including personal information is being transmitted through IoT devices. For information protection, it is important to perform cryptography communication, and it is required to use a lightweight security protocol due to performance limitations. Currently, most of the encryption methods used in the security protocol use RSA and ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography). However, if a high performance quantum computer is developed and the Shor algorithm is used, it can no longer be used because it can easily solve the stability problems based on the previous RSA and ECC. Therefore, in this paper, we designed a security protocol that is resistant to the computational power of quantum computers. The code-based crypto ROLLO, which is undergoing the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) post quantum cryptography standardization, was used, and a hash and XOR computation with low computational consumption were used for mutual communication between IoT devices. Finally, a comparative analysis and safety analysis of the proposed protocol and the existing protocol were performed.

  • In order to enhance standardization and interoperability of local level systems, AHU control network was designed with basement(8 point) and basis story(15 point) and then the network was constructed by power line communication. Each devices of AHU system were programed with neuron C of $L_{ON}W_{ORKS}$ as an open protocol. As a result of a study, each devices of the network were controlled with self dispersion process by $L_{ON}W_{ORKS}$ protocol and wiring could be reduced by power line communication.

  • Service and technology for the future hyper-connected society, which is every information receive through the mobile internet, will be an Internet of Things. Thus, it is mandatory to derive key standardization work item and establish strategy for the global business with the standardization of device and service platform by the application service. In this study, by analyzing the domestic and international market trends, state of technical development, and standardization of technology, we identified the open platform is the stepping stone for achieving the goal which is establishing the virtuous circulation of IoT ecosystem. Also, we defined emphasized key standardization work item for achieving the open platform are network, server, access authentication, billing system, and software platform. After that, we proposed future strategy direction of standardization. This research could be contribute to the IoT service diffusion by realizing IP communication among low power wireless terminals and implementing light-weight standard internet protocol.

  • This mobile oriented Ad-hoc network yet steps on development level, related issues and standardization are progressing. This paper presented ad-hoc network's overview and overall property, followed by routing scheme that must be setup for communication between each nodes. Among several routing scheme proposed for standardization, ZRP that is foaled by this paper, is hybrid type algorithm, and only includes advantages of others This paper presented running process and implementation method, result that is made from network simulation, shows analysis of each parameter values's change. Each parameters changed with many differences according to Zone radius and communication node's location from simualtion that was performed changing a number of nodes and a velocity of nodes.

  • As the Internet-related products are launched in a variety of ways, if the products are not produced according to the world standardization model of the Internet, communication with the standardized products will not be smoothly performed. This study was carried out in order to improve the competitiveness of export by launching the global standardization promotion strategy of the Internet of things, to grasp the internet standardization trends of each country and to release the following products. This research work presents a strategic driving model that can enhance interoperability among heterogenous IoT devices. Therefore, this research proposed case by case strategic standard approach based on level of technologies.

  • Recently, the huge growth of mobile data traffic has driven the earlier commercialization of LTE network and the evolution of LTE-Adv has been accelerated because of this trend of mobile traffic surges. Thus it has enabled the global connectivity and roaming capability due to continual standardization activities. The 3rd generation mobile communication system has been improved through incorporating technologies of HSDPA, MBMS and HSUPA etc continuously. Also, OFDMA/SC-FDMA-based LTE standardization has been under way. In this paper, the architectures of LTE network and protocol have been introduced and their inherent operation mechanisms have also been explored in order to give some insights about the LTE/LTE-Adv networks while their architectures are considered as most prominent candidate for worldwide standard by ITU-R and mobile operators for international communication networks.

  • As the broadband network are being deployed recently, the IPTV (Internet Protocol TV) has appeared and become a most representative service that incorporates audio, video, etc. In spite of the long-period efforts, however, no standardized method exists to measure and evaluate the quality of video that is experienced through TV in the customer's premises. Therefore, before developing a method to measure and evaluate the quality of experience (QoE) for video that is the ultimate goal, this paper reviews the outcomes from the past standardization activities and drive a few important implications that would be reflected to the method to measure and evaluate QoE for video.
