The technology of Software Defined Radio (SDR) is a possible solution to interwork flexibly between various wireless transport protocols. Ubiquitous network, like u-health service network, includes sensor devices or nodes which do not facilitate all the same transport protocols to access network. As such this may be in such unreachable situations as poverty of all required AP (Access Point)’s, faults or contention in a path of particular protocol communication, etc. This paper presents research results of modeling and simulation to analyze transport performance of multi-protocol ubiquitous network which includes SDR-based interwork nodes and congestion-controlled AP’s. Focusing mainly on dynamics of overall transport performance rather than protocol execution procedures, this paper employs the Zeigler’s DEVS (Discrete Event Systems Specification) methodology and DEVSim++simulation environment to experiment.

Recently, various systems have been developed to support ship navigation safety. In order to verify the usefulness of such a system, it is most ideal to try it on a real vessel, but there are many difficulties. As an alternative, usability verification methods applied with modelling and simulation (M&S) techniques are required such as FMSS, which is closest to reality, is very expansive to construct, and there needs the specialized operator. For this reason, this paper proposes a method to verify the navigation safety support system by modeling and simulation techniques based on the Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) formalism. As a first step, we designed the navigation simulation architecture based on the SES/MB framework, and details on modelling ship core equipment and navigator agents based on the DEVS. Through this, we are able to implement the navigation simulation system for vessels, and evaluate the effectiveness of navigation safety support elements such as collision avoidance, etc. using developed scenarios.

Recently, many researches have been under way to develop systems (services) to support the safety navigation of ships, and in these studies, common difficulties have been encountered in assessing the usefulness and effectiveness of the developed system. To solve these problems, we propose the DEVS-based ship navigation modeling and simulation technique. Following the preceding study, we analyze the COLREG rules and reflected to officer and helmsman agent models for decision making. Also we propose estimation and interpolation techniques to adopt the motion characteristics of the actual vessel to simulation. In addition, we implement the navigation simulation system to reflect the designed proposed methods, and we present five-scenarios to verify the developed simulation system. And we conduct simulations according to each scenario and the results were reconstructed. The simulation results confirm that the components modelled in each scenario enable to operate according to the navigation relationships.

반도체 제조시설의 효율성을 위해 대부분의 현장에서는 물류 자동화 시스템 (AMHS, Automated Material Handling System)을 도입하여 운영하고 있다. OHT(Overhead Hoist Transfer)는 반도체 공정에서 주로 활용되는 Monorail 컨베이어 형태의 자동 반송 시스템의 일종으로 작업물을 들고 제조라인 위에 설치된 레일을 따라 자율적으로 이동하는 방식으로 운영된다. 도체 물류 시스템의 계층적인 구조적 특징과 고가의 재료를 다루고, 외부유출이 어려운 실제 공정 현장, 실험 환경의 시간, 공간적 구축 등의 현실적 특징 때문에 반도체 제조 공정의 자동화 물류시스템에 대한 모델링 및 시뮬레이션을 통한 연구의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 OHT를 효율적으로 제어하기 위해 DEVS(Discrete Event System Specifications) 형식론을 기반으로 OHT 시스템 모델링 및 시뮬레이션 설계 방법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 반도체 제조 시스템의 전반적인 물류 과정에 대해 분석하고, DEVS 형식론에 대해 연구하며, 이를 바탕으로 반도체 물류 시스템을 위한 모델링 및 시뮬레이션을 설계하였으면, 실험을 통해 제안된 모델리 반도체 물류 시스템 시뮬레이션을 수행할 수 있음을 보인다.

As the VoIP service quality is getting better and many shortcomings are being overcome, users are getting interested in this service. Also, there are several additional features that provide a convenience to users such as presence service, instant messaging service and so on. But, as there are always two sides of rein, some security issues have users hesitate to make use of it. This paper deals with one of the issues, the VoIP spam problem. We took into account the signal pattern of voice message in spam call and we have constructed voice signal models of normal call, normal call with noise and spam call. Each voice signal case is inserted into our spam decision algorithm which detects the spam calls based on the amount of information in the call signal. We made use of the DEVS-$Java^{TM}$ for our modeling and simulation. The contribution of this work is in suggestion of a way to detect voice spam call signal and testing of the method using modeling and simulation methodology.

Recently the CGF/SAF (Computer Generated Force / Semi-Automated Force) technology has been getting attention to deal with the increasing complexity in a DM&S(Defence Modeling and Simulation) environment. OneSAF is one of well-known CGF/SAF systems, however, it is not able to support the DEVS framework which is an advanced discrete event based modeling and simulation environment. Especially, most DM&S systems in Korea has been developed on the basis of the DEVS framework. In this paper, we have proposed the agent-based SAF design methodology and tool for supporting DEVS M&S environment. The proposed SAF modeling tool is divided into two parts; the agent modeling part and SAF modeling part. In the agent modeling environment, the modeler can simply create the agent model by writing down the necessary rules. It also provides the agent testing environment so that the modeler maybe conveniently verify the prescribed agent model. The SAF model is finally created by combing the individual agents based on the pre-defined structure. DM&S engineers will be able to employ our tools and modeling methodology to design the DEVS-based DM&S system to be developed.

The inherent complexity of semiconductor fabrication processes makes it hard to solve well-known job scheduling problems in analytical ways, which leads us to rely practically on discrete event modeling simulations to learn the effects of changing the system's parameters. Meanwhile, unpredictable disturbances such as machine failures and maintenance diminish the productivity of semiconductor manufacturing processes with fixed scheduling policies; thus, it is necessary to adapt job scheduling policy in a timely manner in reaction to critical environmental changes (disturbances) in order for the fabrication process to perform optimally. This paper proposes an adaptive job control framework for a wafer fabrication process in a control system theoretical approach and implements it based on a DEVS modeling simulation environment. The proposed framework has the advantages in view of the whole systems understanding and flexibility of applying new rules compared to most ad-hoc software approaches in this field. Furthermore, it is flexible enough to incorporate new job scheduling rules into the existing rule set. Experimental results show that this control framework with adaptive rescheduling outperforms fixed job scheduling algorithms.

Discrete event modeling is finding ever more application to anlysis and design of complex manufacturing, communication, computer systems, etc. This paper shows how packet network systems may be advantageously represented as DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) models by employing System Entity structure / Model base (SES/MB) framework developed by Zeigler. DEVS models and network structure representations support a strong basis for performance analysis of packet network systems. This approach is illustated in a typical packet network example with several routing strategies.

Proposed in this paper is a modeling and simulation methodology for a virtual manufacturing environment. Based on DEVS formalism[Zeigler 76], the proposed model, so called GKDEVS, is designed to descript the geometrical knematic structure as well as event-driven and continuous state dynamics. In terms of abstract simulation algorithm[Zeigler 84], the simulation method of GKDEVS is proposed for combined discrete-continuous simulation. Using the GKDEVS, and FMS model consisting of a turing machine, a 3-axis machine and a RGV-mounted robot is constructed and simulated.

본 논문은 Zeigler가 제안한 이산 사건 시스템 형식론(DEVS : Discrete Event System Specification)을 기반으로 미시적 교통류 시뮬레이션 시스템의 교통 흐름 분석에 대한 연구를 주목적으로 한다. 도로교통망 모델링 방법은 미시적(microscopic)방법과 거시적(macroscopic)방법으로 분류하는데, 미시적 모형은 개별차량의 행태를 바탕을 둔 모형으로 거시적 모형에 비해 설명력이 뛰어나다는 장점을 가지고 있지만 실제 교통상황에서 관측하고 검증하기가 어렵다는 단점을 갖고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 신뢰성 있는 미시적 교통류 모형의 설계를 위해 DEVS 형식론을 기반으로 개별 차량에 대한 차량 추종 및 차로 변경 모형을 모델링하고 이를 근거로 교통류 시뮬레이션 시스템의 교통흐름 분석을 한다.
