Advancements in automobile industries and the communication technologies caused VANET (Vehicular Ad Hoc NETwork) to evolve to VANET-based clouds before its deployment. It is more likely that VANET clouds will replace the traditional VANET in the deployment phase. It is to be noted that an abrupt deployment is out of question because it would require mass of resources and money to do so; instead incremental deployment is more ideal. In this paper, we aim at the incremental deployment phase of VANET clouds and focus on the well-established public transport networks. Data aggregation is one of the essential aspects in traditional VANET and has been researched for quite long time. However the previously proposed schemes are still controversial. Keeping in mind the time and space prediction of public buses, we leverage these buses as potential aggregators and MG (Mobile Gateways) in VANET clouds. Buses gather cooperative whereabouts information from neighbors, aggregate that information, disseminate it to the neighbor MGs and also send it to the cloud for storage and for services exchange. In our proposed scheme, we believe that the dissemination will be effective and cover most of the urban area since at any instant of time; buses cover most part of the urban areas. Besides, the effective transmission range is higher due to tall buses.

모바일 애드혹 네트워크에서는 모바일 노드의 이동성과 네트워크의 단절성으로 인해 데이터 접근성이 감소하게 된다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 데이터 복제본을 활용하여 데이터 접근성 향상을 위한 많이 기법들이 연구되었다. 하지만, 제안된 기법들은 노드가 가지는 이기적인 특징을 고려하지 않은 기법이기 때문에 실제 모바일 애드혹 네트워크에서 이기적 행동을 하는 노드가 존재할 경우에는 데이터 접근성이 상당히 낮아진다. 최근에 이기적 노드가 존재하는 모바일 애드혹 네트워크에서의 데이터 복제본 할당을 위한 기법이 제안되엇다. 하지만 이 기법은 이기적 노드를 데이터 복제본 할당 기법에서 완전히 배제를 시키기 때문에 이기적 노드를 활용할 수 없다. 그 결과, 데이터 접근성에 안좋은 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 논문은 모바일 애드혹 네트워크에서 이기적 노드가 존재할 경우에 이기적 노드를 활용하기 위해 모든 노드를 이기적 정도와 거리에 따라 측정을 하고, 측정값을 기준으로 노드들을 레벨화 할 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 실험 결과는 제안하는 기법이 기존 기법에 비해 이기적 노드들이 모바일 애드혹 네트워크 상에 존재하는 환경에서 데이터 접근성이 향상됨을 보여준다.

최근 모바일 장치의 증가와 무선 네트워크 환경의 발전은 모바일 애드혹 네트워크에 대한 관심을 증가시키고 있다. 최근까지의 연구는 모바일 애드혹 네트워크에서 데이터 접근성(Accessibility) 향상을 위해 복제의 활용이 효율적임을 증명하고 있다. 복제 기법이 모바일 애드혹 네트워크에서 실제로 활용되기 위해서는 원본과 복제본 사이에 일관성(Consistency)이 확보되어야만 한다. 기존의 연구에서는 일관성 확보를 위해 원본을 가진 노드에게 확인하는 기법을 활용하고 있다. 그러나, 시간제약을 가지는 응용의 경우 원본을 가진 노드에게 확인하는 기법은 효율적이지 못하며, 때로는 심각한 문제를 일으킬 수도 있다. 본 논문에서는 시간제약응용을 위한 캐쉬 무효화 기법을 제안하고 있다. 제안하는 기법을 통해 기존의 일관성 확인 기법에서 일어나는 '롤백(Rollback)' 문제를 해결할 수 있었으며, 접근시간(Access time) 측면에서 성능향상을 얻을 수 있었다. 실험 결과는 본 논문의 접근시간 측면에서의 효율적임을 증명하여 준다.

Wireless sensor networks will be broadly deployed in the real world and widely utilized for various applications. A prerequisite for secure communication among the sensor nodes is that the nodes should share a session key to bootstrap their trust relationship. The open problems are how to verify the identity of communicating nodes and how to minimize any information about the keys disclosed to the other side during key agreement. At any rate, any one of the existing schemes cannot perfectly solve these problems due to some drawbacks. Accordingly, we propose a new pre-distribution scheme with the following merits. First, it supports authentication services. Second, each node can only find some indices of key spaces that are shared with the other side, without revealing unshared key information. Lastly, it substantially improves resilience of network against node capture. Performance and security analyses have proven that our scheme is suitable for sensor networks in terms of performance and security aspects.

The tactical mobile ad-hoc network(MANET) consists of distributed autonomous networks between individual ground nodes, which is effective in terms of network survivability and flexibility. However, due to constraints such as limited power, terrain, and mobility, frequent link disconnection and shadow area may occur in communication. On the other hand, the satellite network has the advantage of providing a wide-area wireless link overcoming terrain and mobility, but has limited bandwidth and high-latency characteristic. In the future battlefield, an integrated network architecture for interworking multi-layer networks through a heterogeneous network gateway (HNG) is required to overcome the limitations of the existing individual networks and increase reliability and efficiency of communication. In this paper, we propose a new HNG architecture and detailed algorithm that integrates satellite network and the tactical MANET and enables reliable data transfer based on flow characteristics of traffic. The simulations validated the proposed architecture using Riverbed Modeler, a network-level simulator.

A routing scheme called MCS-NLTC using a self-configuration marine network model and the diversity and heterogeneity of broadband wireless access technologies is newly proposed. The MCS-NLTC algorithm selects optimal nodes and carriers for every hop in optimal routes based on not conventional hop counts but normalized distances to destination ships (location information of destination ships). Normalized transmission characteristics of applications and carriers are considered to get optimal routes as well. The location information enhances convergence speed to get destinations, which makes the route search time faster. Evaluated performances are compared with those of the schemes based on max-win (OMH-MW), and normalized transmission characteristics (MCS-NTC).

Computing environment is evolving rapidly to ubiquitous environment. It thus makes people access and utilize any resource on the move and makes location of objects rise to the rank of the most important information. However provision of location information is too restrictive in small environments such as a home or building. In this paper we propose a home entertainment system which supports user mobility based on sensor networks and distributed devices. The proposed system estimates a user location by using signal strength received from Bluetooth ad-hoc networks. This estimated location information can tell which device a user can take advantage of while moving. In order to prove possibility of user mobility support, the system is implemented on our UPnP A/V framework home entertainment system to provide content streaming and the result shows that a provision of service for mobile users could be possible in small ubiquitous computing environments.

This paper presents an analytical method for finding the optimum transmission range in mobile ad hoc networks(MANETs). The results are particularly useful for the operation of military networks, as the transmission range affects the traffic throughput of user & routing traffic, delay, and frequency interference. When the conditions of tactical environment are applied in our simulations and the above-mentioned performances are analyzed, we find the OLSR protocol is more excellent. Plus, we compare the results of MANETs performance when applying optimum transmission range and the default transmission range(10km), and analyze the reasonability of the calculation of optimum transmission range proposed by this paper.

Marine data communications still look for a novel data communication system at sea because of the restriction of bandwidths and costs of current carriers. In order to make the most efficient use of the broadband land carriers at sea, this paper proposes a routing scheme (MCS-NTC) at a marine MANET model. The routing scheme optimizes the route by choosing optimal nodes and carriers among the traditional and land carriers based on normalized transmission characteristics of applications and carriers. The performance is compared with the max-win method (OMH-MW) scheme considering the specific values of transmission characteristics. The result shows that our scheme derives more efficient routes than the previous one in terms of the transmission characteristics such as bandwidth, cost, delay, the number of hops and carriers.
