This paper describes an integrated network management framework for providing point-to-multipoint reservation service (PMRS) in an ATM network. There are two major issues confronting the network service provider in relation to this service: one is to rapidly confirm the acceptability of the subscriber's reservation at subscription time, and the other is to punctually activate the reserved point-to-multipoint service. To meet these requirements, we developed a service provision model (SPM) and a network resource model of a bandwidth allocation timetable (BATT). We propose a point-to-multipoint routing algorithm composed of ordering and backtracking procedures, which can find the best branch point under the complex network topology and can add more destinations to the existing point-to-multipoint route. We demonstrate the feasibility of the SPM, the BATT, and the point-to-multipoint routing algorithm by implementing our schemes and analyzing their performance under the operational ATM network of KT(Korea Telecom).

In this paper, we propose an efficient VP extension algorithm for ABR multipoint-to-point connection in ATM networks. The VC merging or VP merging is used to implement ABR multipoint-to-point connection. We use the VP merging technique. To solve the scarcity problem of VP resources, we propose an efficient VP extension algorithm. Since the proposed scheme follows the standard VPI/VCI format, it doesn’t require another table according to the VP extension. We compare the proposed scheme with VC merging algorithm. The result shows that the proposed method can provide fair bandwidth allocation among the sources in multipoint-to-point connection.

WPAN(Wireless Personal Area Network) have many advantages such as using low power and cheap price, small size. So it is recently increasing application range such as personal portable device, home network and sensor network so and on. IEEE 802.15.3 basically has the point to point or peer to peer UM(Usage Model). But using devises that need data transmission is increasing in the house and office. Therefor UM of point to multipoint is proposed. In this paper, I proposed Multicast ACK mechanism on the point to multipoint UM. So it is able to transfer data to multiple devices as this Multicast transfer method at a time. Thus, throughput performance is improved. But the problem that increases data transfer delay is appeared because of adding Multicast ACK traffic. We compared the performance between standard and proposed mechanism through a numerical analysis.

Satellite communication systems will play an important role in establishing high-speed information communication network ddue to the characteristics of flexibility of bandwidth, mobile communication, wide coverage, multipoint and broadcasting. Also satellite systems have the capability to supply terrestrial B-ISDN with flexible links for accessing networks as well as trunking networks. Therefore, satellites must provide compatibility to earth-based B-ISDN signalling interface, services and network capability. This paper proposed interworking model between terrestrial B-ISDN and satellite B-ISDN signalling protocol and illustrated basic call-process procedure of satellite B-ISDN signalling protocol supporting point-to-point and point-to-multipoint connection.

In this paper, we introduce a point-to-multipoint minimum cost flow problem with convex and demand splitting. A source node transmits the traffic along the tree that includes members of the point-to-multipoint connection. The traffic is replicated by the nodes only at branch points of the tree. In order to minimize the sum of arc costs, we assume that the traffic demand can be splitted and transmitted to destination nodes along different trees. If arc cost is linear, the problem would be a Steiner tree problem in networks eve though demand splitting is permitted. The problem would be applied in transmitting large volume of traffic from a serve to clients in Internet environments. Optimality conditions of the problem are presented in terms of fair tree routing. The proposed algorithm is a finite terminating algorithm for $\varepsilon$-optimal solution. convergence of the algorithm is obtained under monotonic condition and strict convexity of the cost function. Computational experiences are included.

VoIP(Voice over IP) is the technology to transport voice and video over IP networks such as Internet. Today, VoIP technology is viewed as the right choice for provide voice, video, and data communication over next generation network. We are sure that the multipoint VoIP will help enhancing the various application services in ubiquitous environment. The paper shows multipoint VoIP system implemented with end-point mixing model and introduces various embedded systems such as UFC(Ubiquitous Fashionable Computer), tourist guide terminal and industrial terminal which use the multipoint VoIP.

In this paper, we propose a new consolidation algorithm for point-to-multipoint ABR flow control and compare the performance of the proposed algorithms with that of an existing consolidation algorithm. We first investigate problems of the existing algorithm in consolidating backward RM cells and propose two new consolidation algorithms to resolve these problems. Also, we investigate the performance of the proposed algorithms by simulation. As results, we show that the proposed algorithms exhibit a better performance than the existing algorithm in terms of ACR, queue length, utilization, and fairness.

VoIP (Voice over IP) is a technology to transport video and voice traffic over IP networks such as Internet. Today, the VoIP technology is viewed as the right choice for providing voice, video, and data communication among various terminals over the next generation network. This paper discusses a multipoint VoIP implementation with end-point mixing model which can support multipoint conference without a conference bridge. The multipoint VoIP is implemented with SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), and supports STUN (Simple Traversal of UDP Through NATs) since it works in an asymmetric NAT (Network Address Translator) environment. The characteristics of this paper are as follows. It is possible that all terminals in the hierarchical conference don't receive the duplicated media information because we use the end-point mixing model with the new media processing module. And, the paper solves the problem that the hierarchical conference session should be separated into several sessions when a mixing terminal terminates the hierarchical conference session.

In this paper, we discuss the issues of providing protection for point-to-multipoint connections in both Ethernet and MPLS-TP-based packet transport networks. We introduce two types of per-leaf protection-linear and ring. Neither of the two types requires that modifications to existing standards be made. Their performances can be improved by a collective signal fail mechanism proposed in this paper. In addition, two schemes - tree protection and hybrid protection - are newly proposed to reduce the service recovery time when a single failure leads to multiple signal fail events, which in turn places a significant amount of processing burden upon a root node. The behavior of the tree protection protocol is designed with minimal modifications to existing standards. The hybrid protection scheme is devised to maximize the benefits of per-leaf protection and tree protection. To observe how well each scheme achieves an efficient traffic recovery, we evaluate their performances using a test bed as well as computer simulation based on the formulae found in this paper.

In this paper, a point-to-multipoint wireless communication system based on Bluetooth specifications, which is possibly applied to very large vessels, is implemented and analyzed. Here, a communication network is composed of a slave Bluetooth module connected to the task computer and multiple master Bluetooth modules equipped with a sensor. And exploiting the point-to-multipoint data communication among the Bluetooth modules, a surveillance system that recognizes and controls a variety of emergency situations happened on a large vessel is implemented. It is, therefore, considered that the wireless communication system implemented in this paper is possibly exploited a basic technology for the digital shipbuilding of the next generation.
