Providing Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantee requires the reservation of resource needed to accommodate the traffic flow of service for which resource reservation protocol (RSVP) was introduced. However, if any RSVP-capable router on the path fails to accommodate the traffic flow due to lack of resource, the flow is not allowed no matter how much surplus resources other routers on the path have. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a resource reservation method with available resource migration between RSVP-capable routers in which the routers use the recently developed latency optimized fair queuing scheduler. The results of the simulation applying the proposed method to an evaluation network show that it may yield the gain of up to 165% compared to that in the original one in terms of the number of admitted flows.

This paper suggests a multi-agent message transport architecture based on the message-oriented middleware ZeroMQ. Compared with the other middlewares such as CORBA, Ice, and Thrift, ZeroMQ receives a good score in the evaluation of performance, QoS (Quality of Service), patterns, user friendliness, and resources. The suggested message transfer architecture borrowed many basic concepts like agent platform, AMS (Agent Management System), and MTS (Message Transfer System) from FIPA (Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents) standard multi-agent specifications, and the architecture inherited the strength of the architecture from the multi-agent framework SMAF (Smart Multi-Agent Framework). The architecture suggested in this paper is a novel peer-to-peer architecture which is not known to the ZeroMQ community. In the suggested architecture, every MTS agent uses only one ZeroMQ router socket to support peer-to-peer communication among MTS agents. The suggested architecture can support closely collaborating software areas such as intelligent robots as well as the traditional application areas of multi-agent architecture. The suggested architecture has interoperability and scalability with the ZeroMQ devices and patterns.

Providing Quality-of-Service(QoS) guarantee requires the reservation of resource needed to accommodate the traffic flow of service for which resource reservation protocol(RSVP) was introduced. However, if any RSVP-capable router on the path fails to accommodate the traffic flow due to lack of resource, the flow is not allowed no matter how much surplus resources other routers on the path have. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a resource reservation method that can adjust adaptively the delay budget of traffic flow allocated to each RSVP-capable router in which the router uses the recently developed general-time fair queuing scheduler. The results of the simulation applying the proposed method to an evaluation network show that it may yield the gain of up to 90% compared to that in the original one in terms of the number of admitted flows.

Nowadays, the traffic type and behavior are extremely diverse due to the appearance of various services on Internet, which makes the need of traffic identification important for efficient operation and management of network. In recent years traffic identification methodology using statistical features of flow has been broadly studied. We also proposed a traffic identification methodology using payload size distribution in our previous work, which has a problem of low completeness. In this paper, we improved the completeness by solving the PSD conflict using IP and port. And we improved the accuracy by changing the distance measurement between flow and statistic signature from vector distance to per-packet distance. The feasibility of our methodology was proved via experimental evaluation on our campus network.

In the Internet environment in which best-effort services are provided, we need to guarantee end-to-end performance rather than hop performance to provide services with a variety of QoS(Quality of Service) requirements. The end-to-end performance is affected by many factors along the path of traffic flow. Most existing simulation studies are concentrated on a single node or a few nodes. We need much different approach considering the simulation execution time to simulate a large-scale network. In this paper, we derive requirements and present methodologies for the implementation of the simulator to simulate it. Then, we design and implement our simulator using OPNET. Performance evaluation is carried out using the simulator for large-scale KII (National Information Infrastructure in Korea). We use a self-similar traffic model and present some results on the end-to-end performance metric for the networks.

Resazurin-based microtiter assay was used to evaluate the inhibitory effect of fungicides on the respiration of Colletotrichum acutatum s. lat. 20JDS8 sensitive and 20CDJ6 resistant to strobilurin fungicides. The spores of C. acutatum s. lat. 20JDS8 were inoculated into potato dextrose broth (PDB) at densities of 1x10⁴, 1x10⁵ and 1x10⁶ spores/ml, respectively. The relative fluorescence unit (RFU) of all treatments inoculated at each spore density started to rise after 12 hr of incubation, and were 1,965.5, 5,412.5, and 10,061.0, respectively, after 24 hr of incubation. To evaluate the inhibitory effect of fungicide on the respiration of the pathogen, the spores of the pathogen were inoculated into the PDB and treated with the fungicides 0, 6, 12, and 24 hr after incubation, respectively. After keeping the pathogen culturing for another 24 hr, PrestoBlue reagent was treated into the PDB culturing the pathogen. The RFU of each treatment was examined 1 hr after the reagent was treated. When dithianon, isopyrazam, pyraclostrobin, and fluazinam were treated at high concentrations in the stages of spores (immediately after inoculation [0 hr]), spore germination (after incubation for 6 hr), and hyphal growth (after incubation for 12 hr), the respiration of pathogens was inhibited by 90-100%. When the fungicides were treated after culturing the pathogen for 24 hr, the respiratory inhibitory effects were greatly reduced. With pyraclostrobin-resistant C. acutatum s. lat. 20CDJ6, azxoystrobin, trifloxystrobin and kresoxim-methyl, which have the same mode of action, had very little or no respiratory inhibitory effect in all growth stages of pathogens. Based on the above results, it was thought that the resazurin-based microtiter assay could quickly and accurately evaluate the inhibitory efficacy of the fungicides that inhibited respiration.

Simple-relay aided resource allocation (SRARA) schemes are incorporated with throughput guarantee scheduling (TGS) in IEEE 802.16 type TDD-OFDMA downlink to enhance service coverage, where the amount of resources at each relay is limited due to either its available power which is much smaller than base station (BS) power or the required overhead The performance of SRARA schemes is evaluated with both proportional fair (PF) and TGS schedulers at 64 kbps and 128 kbps user throughput requirements. For SRARA with RSs of relatively lower power, a scheme putting total power into only one subchannel shows larger coverage than when both subchnnels are used in a manner of equal power allocation, while the RS with evenly power-allocated two subchannels could provide larger coverage gain for a relatively higher power. In a lower target (64kbps), more improvement comes from relay scheme rather than scheduler design. For a relatively higher level (128 kbps), it comes from scheduler design rather than relay.

Recently, LTE is preparing to make a new leap forward LTE-A all over the world. As LTE privides high speed service, the role of mobile phones seems to change from voice to data service. According to Cisco, global mobile data traffic will increase nearly 11-fold between 2013 and 2018. Mobile video traffic will reach 75% by 2018 from 66% in 2013 in Korea. However, voice service is still the most important role of mobile phones. Thus, controllability of throughput and low BLER is indispensable for high-quality VoIP service among various type of traffic. Although the maximum AMR-WB, 23.85 Kbps is sufficient to a VoIP call, it is difficult for the LTE which can provide tens to hundreds of MB/s may not keep the certain level VoIP QoS especially in the cell-edge area. This paper proposes a new scheduling algorithm in order to improve VoIP performance after analyzing various scheduling algorithms. The proposal is the technology which applies more priority processing for VoIP than other applications in cell-edge area based on two-tier scheduling algorithm. The simulation result shows the improvement of VoIP performance in the view point of throughput and BLER.
