With rapid growth of Mobile Ad-Hoc network(MANET) and P2P service technologies, many attempts for integration of MANET and P2P service and development of such applications are actively introduced recently. The implementation of stable P2P service, however, is very difficult challenge because of the high mobility of mobile users in MANET. In this paper, we propose an efficient mobile P2P service, which shares and manages multimedia data files efficiently in mobile environment, uses distributed caches to store files considering their popularities in order to achieve high performance. The performance of proposed P2P service is evaluated by an analytic model and compared with those of existing DHT based P2P service in peer-to-peer network.

Objectives : This descriptive study was conducted to examine the degree of stress, coping styles, communication with the mother and depression between headache-suffering children and headache-free children and to explore predicted factors for headache occurrence in children. Method : The subjects of this study consisted of 196 headache-free children and 107 headache-suffering children. They were 4th-6th graders of an elementary school in T city. The instruments in this study were David's stressor of children, Lazarus & Folkman's Stress Coping Style, PACI(Parent-Adolescent Communication Inventory) by Barnes & Olsen and Kovac's CDI (Children's depression inventory). Data were collected from May 2 to July 16, 2004. Results : Total stress(t=-3.76, p=.035), school stress(t=-3.02, p=.001), mass media stress(t=-1.39, p=.029) and depression(t=7.62, p=.001) in headache-suffering children were significantly higher than those of headache-free children. Problem-oriented coping skills (t=1.23, p=.023), and the score of communication with the mother(t=2.32, p=.012) in headache-suffering children were lower than those of headache-free children. Logistic regression analysis (stepwise) showed that the most powerful predictor was stressors in school, followed by depression, stressors in mass media and communication with the mother. Conclusions: This study revealed that important factors such as the degree of school stress, depression, the degree of mass media stress, communication with the mother and problem-oriented coping skills should be controlled for reducing of headaches in children.

As the performance of the next-generation broadband wireless networks is dramatically enhanced, various services (i.e., education, video conferencing, online games, etc.) have been provided to users through a smart mobile platform. Since those services are usually provided by using the centralized architecture, it is difficult for a lot of users to provide the scalable communication service with regard to traffic management. To solve these problems, we have proposed an architecture of P2P-based group communication management scheme using smart mobile device. More specifically, we design the group management protocol and algorithm for the group member management and the traffic management. By using these methods, the mobile multimedia streaming service can be provided with scalability. In order to verify the performance of the proposed scheme, we have mathematically analyzed the performance in terms of the average transmission delay and bandwidth utilization.
