In this paper, to achieve consistency maintenance as well as stable service execution, we build a Fault-Tolerant Object Group framework that provides both of the group management service and the load scheduling service. The group management service supports the object management such as registration and authentication, and provides two schemes for failure recovery using the service priority and the checkpointing. In the load scheduling servile, we improve the effectiveness of service execution through the reasoning process of object loads based on the ANFIS architecture. The effectiveness in the performance of the developed framework is validated through a virtual home-network simulation based on the FTOG framework.

We propose an Agent-based Fault Tolerant Object Group model based on the agent technology and FTOG model with replication mechanism for effective object management and fault recovery. We define the five kind of agents - internal processing agent, registration agent, state handling agent, user interface agent, and service agent - that extend the functions of the FTOG model. The roles of the agents in the proposed model are to reduce the remote interactions between distributed objects and provide more effective service execution. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed model, we implemented the Intelligent Home Network Simulator (IHNS) which virtually provides general home networking services. Through the simulations, it is validated that the proposed model decreases the interactions of the object components and supports the effective fault recovery, while providing more stable and reliable services.

This paper proposes a FTOG(Fault-Tolerant Object Group)-based recovery services through replicated objects. In the distributed system, the fault of the object component may cause an entire system failure, evidently raising the service breakdowns. Therefore, this paper proposes recovery services with the replicated objects in case of fault occurrences. Moreover, applying the FTOG model to a virtual home network simulation, we verify the consistency maintenance and the service reliability of the proposed model.

The failure of network and/or node on which server object is executed is a single point of system failure in the CORBA application. One of the possible ways to overcome such problem is to replicate server objects to several independent nodes. The replicated objects executing same tasks are called object group. In order to provide fault tolerance of server object, this paper proposes and implements new CORBA model that supports the object group based on active replication. The proposed model not only provides interoperability with existing CORBA application but also minimizes additional application interface required to support object group because it uses nop to exchange messages between client and server. And this paper extends IDL structure. Depending to application logic, it makes possible to prevent performance degradation caused by consistency maintenance. At present, this paper supports only active replication. But it can be easily extended to provide warm ancVor cold passive replication without modification of architecture required for active replication.

분산 환경에서의 효과적인 통신 방법인 멀티캐스트 프로토콜이 그동안 많이 연구되었다. 하지만 인터넷 기반 네트워크의 급속한 발달로 실시간 데이터를 요구하는 환경으로 변화함에 따라 실시간 멀티캐스트 프로토콜의 필요성이 대두되었다. 실시간 프로토콜 중 하나인 RFRM(Release-time based Fault-tolerant Real-time Multicast protocol)은 메시지의 신뢰성을 보장하고 뷰의 일관성을 유지하며 고장을 감내한다는 장점이 있지만 한 개의 그룹만을 지원한다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 실시간 멀티캐스트 프로토콜인 RFRM을 확장하여 멀티그룹을 지원하는 뷰 관리기능을 추가하였고, 그 성능을 분석하기 위하여 Erlang/OTP를 사용하여 구현된 결과를 TMO(Time-triggered Message-triggered Object) 모델을 사용한 실시간 시뮬레이션의 결과와 기존의 RFRM의 그룹 연산 성능과 비교하였다.

Large-scale distributed applications based on Internet and client/server applications have to deal with series of problems. Load balancing, unpredictable communication delays, and networking failures can be the example of the series of problems. Therefore. sophisticated applications such as teleconferencing, video-on-demand, and concurrent software engineering require an abstracted group communication, CORBA does not address these paradigms adequately. It mainly deals with point-to-point communication and does not support the development of reliable applications that include predictable behavior in distributed systems. In this paper, we present our design, implementation and performance analysis of the group communication using the CORBA-ORB. JAVA-RML and Socket based on distributed computing Performance analysis will be estimated latency-lime according to object increment, in case of group communication using ORB of CORBA the average is 14.5172msec, in case of group communication using RMI of Java the average is 21.4085msec, in case of group communication using socket the average is becoming 18.0714msec. Each group communication using multicast and UDP can be estimated 0.2735msec and 0.2157msec. The performance of the CORBA-ORB group communication is increased because of the increased object by the result of this research. This study can be applied to the fault-tolerant client/server system, group-ware. text retrieval system, and financial information systems.
