The importance of efficient enterprise network management has been emphasized continuously because of the rapid utilization of Internet in a limited resource environment. For the efficient network management, the management policy that reflects the characteristics of a specific network extracted from long-term traffic analysis is essential. However, the long-term traffic data could not be handled in the past and there was only simple analysis with the shot-term traffic data. However, as the big data analytics platforms are developed, the long-term traffic data can be analyzed easily. Recently, enterprise network resource efficiency through the long-term traffic analysis is required. In this paper, we propose the methods of collecting, storing and managing the long-term enterprise traffic data. We define several classification categories, and propose a novel network resource efficiency through the multidirectional statistical analysis of classified long-term traffic. The proposed method adopted to the campus network for the evaluation. The analysis results shows that, for the efficient enterprise network management, the QoS policy must be adopted in different rules that is tuned by time, space, and the purpose.

Recently, hybrid CDN/P2P video streaming architecture is specially designed and deployed to achieve the scalability of P2P networks and the desired low delay and high throughput of CDNs. In this paper, we propose a cooperative video streaming and active node buffer management technique in hybrid CDN/P2P architecture. The key idea of this streaming strategy is to minimize network latency such as jitter and packet loss and to maximize the QoS(quality of service) by effectively and efficiently utilizing the information sharing of file location in CDN's proxy server which is an end node located close to a user and P2P network. Through simulation, we show that the proposed cooperative video streaming and active node buffer management technique based on CDN and P2P network improves the performance of realtime video streaming compared to previous methods.

In this study, the optimal buffer size is calculated for seamless video playback on a mobile device. Buffer means the memory space for multimedia packet which arrives in mobile device for video play such as VOD service. If the buffer size is too large, latency time before video playback can be longer. However, if it is too short, playback service can be paused because of shortage of packets arrived. Hence, the optimal buffer size insures QoS of video playback on mobile devices. We model the process of buffering into a discret-time queueing model. Mean busy period length and mean waiting time of Geo/G/1 queue with N-policy is analyzed. After then, we uses the main performance measures to present numerical examples to decide the optimal buffer size on mobile devices. Our results enhance the user satisfaction by insuring the seamless playback and minimizing the initial delay time in VOD streaming process.

MPLS networks architectures have been prevailed as scalable approach to provide quality of service in the Internet. Many researches have been mainly focused on scalability and multi-path calculation scheme for failure restoration. However, the MPLS network have an scalability problem about traffic, and the existing failure restoration methods are wasted resources, and it has the problem that loss of a packet by a lot of delay occurs in too. Therefore in this paper, we propose a H-MPLS (Hierachical-Multiprotocol Label Switching)network for rapidly failure restorations and effective management of network extended. The proposed H-MPLS Network apply LSP multi-path routing algorithm and consists of several MPLS. After comparing the performance among the existing failure restoration methods with various network models, we use NS simulator in order to analyze the performance. Finally, we present an improvement scheme of the efficiency and scalability.

프레임 릴레이망을 백본으로 한 LAN과 LAN접속으로 형성되는 기업통신망이 현재 활발히 전개되면서 인터넷을 통한 광고, 전자거래가 중요한 서비스로 진행되고 있다. 국내의 프레임 릴레이 서비스 현황을 살펴보면 KT, 데이콤, 일부기업등에서 프레임 릴레이 교환기를 수입하여 주고객인 기업에 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 이들은 사용자 요구에 의해 주로 LAN과 LAN에 접속된 라우터 등의 종단 시스템간 PVC(영구가상회선: Permanant Virtual Circuit)접속을 통하여 다양한 서비스를 제공하면서 독자적인 기업통신체계를 구축하고 있는 실정이다. 이와같이 사용자 요구로 PVC등록시 프레임 릴레이망과 LAN을 연결하는 링크의 QoS(서비스 질: Quality of Service), 트래픽 파라메터는 수동적으로 설정된다. 현재 국내에서는 프레임 릴레이 교환기 개발은 전무하고 단지 그들을 수입하여 운용하는 수준이며 향후 ATM(비동기 전달모드: Asynchronous Transfer Mode)망의 중요 서비스 연동이 될 프레임 릴레이 기술은 심도있게 연구되고 있다. 향후 고속통신을 제공하는 백본망은 기존의 프레임 릴레이망과 ATM망이 공존할 추세이며 점진적으로 프레임 릴레이망은 사라질 것이다. 이때 ATM 망이 기존의 프레임 릴레이망을 백본으로 한 기업통신망 수용시 원할한 서비스 제공을 위해서는 프레임 릴레이망을 백본으로 채택한 기존의 기업통신망을 ATM망에서 수용시 야기되는 문제점의 제시와 이의 해결은 매우 중요하다고 생각된다. FR/ATM(Frame Relay/ATM)연동시 기업통신망 입장에서는 PVC뿐만 아니라 SVC(교환가상회선: Switched Virtual Circuit)호처리가 수용되어야 한다. 이와같이 PVC와 SVC 수용으로 기업통신망은 통신망의 구성 및 관리가 복잡, 다양해지며, 또 그 기업은 관련된 다양하고 수많은 고객과 접속될 수 있어야 한다. 이때 ATM망을 백본으로 한 공중망이 관련 기업의 사설 정보를 관리하도록 한다는 것은 그 서비스의 이용자에게 보안문제를 제기함은 물론 서비스 이용자가 자신의 망에서 동작하는 여러 서비스를 고객 스스로가 관리하는 것이 바람직하다. CNN(고객망관리 : Customer Network Management)은 이러한 고객에 의한 통신망, 공중망에 대한 부분적 관리 및 서비스에 대한 관리가 이루어 질수 있도록 수행하는 기능이다. 본 논문에서는 ATM망이나 프레임 릴레이망과 ATM 망이 공존시 기업통신망관점에서 야기되는 문제점의 제시와 이의 해결 방안을 살펴보았다. 우선 FR/ATM 연동에서 PVC설정뿐만 아니라 SVC 설정 방법의 연구, 이때 고려된 QoS,트래픽 처리과정을 살펴보았다. 또한 망관리 입장에서 기업통신망 관리자와 ATM망 관리자와의 온-라인 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 변화된 통신망 차원서의 확장된 Managed Object(MO)를 근간으로한 체계적인 CNN-NMS(CNM-Network management System)연동을 살펴본후 결론에서는 추후 계속연구 및 조사 되어야 할 항목을 기업통신망 입장에서 서술하여 보았다.

In a cellular network, if there are too many data users in a cell, data may suffer long delay, and system's quality-of-service (QoS) will degrade. Some traditional schemes such as dynamic channel-allocation scheme (DCA) will assign more channels to hot (or overloaded) cells through a central control system (CC) and the throughput increase will be upper bounded by the number of new channels assigned to the cell. In mobile-assisted data forwarding (MADF), we add an ad-hoc overlay to the fixed cellular infrastructure and special channels-called forwarding channels- are used to connect mobile units in a hot cell and its surrounding cold cells without going through the hot cell's base station. Thus, mobile units in a hot cell can forward data to other cold cells to achieve load balancing. Most of the forwarding-channel management work in MADF is done by mobile units themselves in order to relieve the load from the CC. The traffic increase in a certain cell will not be upper bounded by the number of forwarding channels. It can be more if the users in hot cell are significantly far away from one another and these users can use the same forwarding channels to forward data to different cold neighboring cells without interference. We find that, in a system using MADF, under a certain delay requirement, the throughput in a certain cell or for the whole net-work can be greatly improved.

ATM Forum has defined a guaranteed frame rate (GFR) service to serve Internet traffic efficiently. The GFR service provides virtual connections (VCs) for minimum cell rate (MCR) guarantees and allows them to fairly share the residual bandwidth. And ATM Forum has recommended a frame-based generic cell rate algorithm (F-GCRA) as a frame classifier, which determines whether an Am cell is eligible to use the guaranteed bandwidth in a frame level. An ATM switch accommodates cells in its buffer or drops them in a frame level according to current buffer occupancy. A FIFO shared buffer has so simple structure as to be feasibly implemented in switches, but has not been able to provide an MCR guarantee for each VC without buffer management based on per-VC accounting. In this paper, we enhance the F-GCRA frame classifier to guarantee an MCR of each VC without buffer management based on per-VC accounting. The enhanced frame classifier considers burstness of TCP traffic caused by congestion control algorithm so as to enable each VC to use its reserved bandwidth sufficiently. In addition, it is able to alleviate the unfairness problem in usage of the residual bandwidth. Simulation results show that the enhanced frame classifier satisfies quality of services (QoSs) of the GFR service for the TCP traffic.

In this paper, we propose an early spectrum sensing(ESS) as an advance preparation for radio-access trial, which enables multi-mode terminals to access the most appropriate radio-access system in a cloud-conceptual base station system where multiple radio access technologies(RATs) coexist. Prior to a random access to one of RATs, a multi-mode terminal conducts a spectrum sensing over entire frequency bands of whole RATs, then select the RAT with the lowest sensing power, that is likely to have the most available spectrum. Thus, an access failure caused by that the selected RAT has no available radio spectrum could be avoidable in advance. In computer simulation, we consider as various RATs as possible. First, circuit and packet systems are taken into consideration. In addition, the packet systems are classified according to the feasibility of carrier aggregation(CA). In case of terminal, three modes are considered with circuit-only, packet-only, and multi-mode. Subsequently, packet traffic is classified into real-time and non-real-time traffic with three different tolerable delay levels. The simulation includes a call process starting with a call generation and ending up with a resource allocation reflecting individual user's QoS requirements and evaluates the proposed scheme in terms of the successful access probability, system access time, system balancing factor and packet loss probability.

In this paper, we propose an efficient and QoS-aware MAC scheduling algorithm for Bluetooth, which considers both throughput and delay performance of each Master-Slave pair in scheduling decisions, and thus, attempts to maximize overall performance. The proposed algorithm, MTDPP (Modified Throughput-Delay Priority Policy), makes up for the drawbacks of T-D PP (Throughput-Delay Priority Policy) proposed in [6] and improves the performance. Since Bluetooth employs a master-driven TDD based scheduling algorithm, which is basically operated with the Round Robin policy, many slots may be wasted by POLL or NULL packets when there is no data waiting for transmission in queues. To overcome this link wastage problem, several algorithms have been proposed. Among them, queue state-based priority policy and low power mode-based algorithm can perform with high throughput and reasonable fairness. However, their performances may depend on traffic characteristics, i.e., static or dynamic, and they require additional computational and signaling overheads. In order to tackle such problems, we propose a new scheduling algorithm. Performance of our proposed algorithm is evaluated with respect to throughput and delay. Simulation results show that overall performances can be improved by selecting suitable parameters of our algorithm.

Device-to-Device (D2D) communication underlaying macro-small cell networks, as one of the promising technologies in the era of 5G, is able to improve spectral efficiency and increase system capacity. In this paper, we model the cross- and co-tier D2D communications in two-tier macro-small cell networks. To avoid the complicated interference for cross-tier D2D, we propose a mode selection scheme with a dedicated resource sharing strategy. For co-tier D2D, we formulate a joint optimization problem of power control and resource reuse with the aim of maximizing the overall outage capacity. To solve this non-convex optimization problem, we devise a heuristic algorithm to obtain a suboptimal solution and reduce the computational complexity. System-level simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, which can provide enhanced system performance and guarantee the quality-of-service (QoS) of all devices in two-tier macro-small cell networks. In addition, our study reveals the high potential of introducing cross- and co-tier D2D in small cell networks: i) cross-tier D2D obtains better performance at low and medium small cell densities than co-tier D2D, and ii) co-tier D2D achieves a steady performance improvement with the increase of small cell density.
