The IETF has defined the Intserv model and the RSVP signaling protocol to improve QoS capability for a set of newly emerging services including voice and video streams that require high transmission bandwidth and low delay. However, since the current Intserv model requires each router to maintain the states of each service flow, the complexity and the overhead for processing packets in each rioter drastically increase as the size of the network increases, giving rise to the scalability problem. This motivates our work; namely, we investigate and devise new control schemes to enhance the scalability of the Intesev model. To do this, we basically resort to the SCORE network model, extend it to fairly well adapt to the three services presented in the Intserv model, and devise schemes of the QoS scheduling, the admission control, and the edge and core node architectures. We also carry out the computer simulation by using ns-2 simulator to examine the performance of the proposed scheme in respects of the bandwidth allocation capability, the packet delay, and the packet delay variation. The results show that the proposed scheme meets the QoS requirements of the respective three services of Intserv model, thus we conclude that the proposed scheme enhances the scalability, while keeping the efficiency of the current Intserv model.

Wireless mesh networks contain multi-hop routing protocols between wireless nodes and are connected to the Internet through a gateway. These networks perform a role as a backbone and are scalable for main applications. We propose the design of QoS supporting mechanisms for wireless mesh networks using software defined networking. Our proposed scheme is cost-effective and features adaptive QoS mechanisms for wireless router's resource constraints. The QoS mechanisms use software defined networking technology with Openflow protocol based on diffserv and intserv models with MPLS mechanism and RSVP respectively. A performance evaluation model is suggested to verify the validity of the proposed scheme using several QoSmetrics of the wireless mesh networks.

The design, management, and operation of network infrastructure have evolved during the last few years, leveraging on innovative technologies and architectures. With such a huge trend, due to the flexibility and significant economic potential of these technologies, software defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV) are emerging as the most critical key enablers. SDN/NFV enhancing the infrastructure agility, thus network operators and service providers are able to program their own network functions (e.g., gateways, routers, load balancers) on vendor independent hardware substrate. They facilitating the design, delivery and operation of network services in a dynamic and scalable manner. In NFV, the management and orchestration (MANO) orchestrates other specific managers such as the virtual infrastructure manager (VIM) and the VNF Manager (VNFM). In this paper, we examine the contents of these NFV MANO systematically and proposes a security system in a virtualized environment.

In this paper, we propose MSS(Multicast Synchronization Server) and QCS(QoS Conversion Server) models that can support IP multicast and QoS(Quality of Service) over the ATM network more efficiently. In the MSS model, it is possible to establish shortcut VCs(Virtual Circuits) among all hosts in the ATM network and to transfer multicast data at high speed. Also the MSS model is more scalable, because the number of inter-cluster VCs needed in the MSS model is less than that of EARTH. In the QCS model, ATM switch is modified to support one QoS service and best effort service through the one point-to-multipoint VC at the same time so required network resources are reduced, and dedicated server is used for QoS conversion to accept heterogeneous receivers more efficiently. In this Paper, the proposed MSS model and QCS model have solved both efficiency problem and scalability problem. It is proved through the comparison of the VCs required in each model.

Due to recent development in wireless communication technologies and mobile information devices, the services on ubiquitous computing technology without time and place restriction have been spotlighted. Moreover, the interest of the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and context-awareness technologies have largely been escalating and their technologies utilization is active in the various applications such as healthcare, farm management and so on. However, the direct adaption of the existing context-awareness technique to the WSN technology has several drawbacks as follows. First, such systems waste precious energy of sensor nodes, due to unnecessary data transmissions. Secondly, since the existing work was designed to support only specific applications, it is required to implement a new context-awareness application for a specific purpose. Therefore, we, in this paper, propose a new real-time monitoring system based on context-awareness in WSNs. Our system not only enhances energy efficiency by reducing data transmissions by doing context-awareness on a sensor node, but also is scalable in terms of supporting new context-awareness functionalities through modularization.

Recently webhard services in various applications have been notably increased. In order to adopt some webhard functions into the existing application platform, however, a lot of manpower and cost is necessary. In this paper, we propose webhard API based on cloud storage for building and extending the webhard functions. The proposed system consists of three layers: application, web-hard server, and storage server in which each layer provides its API independently. It is enable the developer to easily extend the webhard functions to the application by using only HTTP request, which provides no limitation of the programming language. Because our webhard API is running on the virtualized cloud storage, it is possible to easily extend the storages and to reduce the maintenance cost. In this paper, we implement all the webhard API and then show the result of adopting the API to a prototype groupware system.

In this paper we propose a scalable sensor network system that makes mesh network among the sink nodes to solve the scalability problem of existing sensor network which is caused by multi-hop networking between the sensor nodes. In the proposed system, the sink nodes have the wireless networking ability to communicate with another sink nodes in mesh fashion, and with the monitoring nodes which is located in the local area or internet area. Especially, the system includes L4(Application Layer) routing mechanism that provides subscribe/publish service to serve selective transmission of sensor data to the specific monitoring nodes. The collected sensor data is transmitted to the monitoring nodes when the sensor data is matched with the monitoring node's interesting value.

In wireless network, the amount of video streaming packet information in receiver replay buffer can be varied according tothe wireless network condition. By the effect, unforeseeable delay and jitter are generated and then busty video traffics can be made. If the amount of buffer information coming in receiver replay buffer is larger than the amount of a specific buffer information, buffer overflow is generated. Such a problem makes the image skip effect and packet loss, and then causes the quality degradation and replay discontinuity of the video streaming service in destination receiver. To solve the buffer overflow problem, this paper applies the token bucket for the busty traffic to the receiver terminal and analyzes the effect of the token bucket. The simulation result using NS-2 and JSVM shows that the proposed scheme with the token bucket has significantly better performance than the conventional scheme without the token bucket in terms of overflow generation number, packet loss rate and PSNR.

Electronic Navigational Charts(ENCs) are official nautical charts which are equivalent to paper charts with supplementary information. Although their main purpose is to be used for the safe navigation of ships, they also contain much information on coasts and seas which may be interesting to ordinary people. However, there is no easy way to access them because of therir specialized data format, access method and visualization. This paper proposes on implementation of SVG for the access and services of ENCs. SVG(Scalable Vector Graphic) makes it possible to make use of Vector graphics for servicing maps in basic internet browsing environment. Implement of SVG for ENC applications by this research is free of special server side GIS mapping system and client side extra technology. The implementation of SVG for ENC Applications can be summarized as follows: Firstly, SVG provides spatial information to possess searching engine to embody SVG map. Secondly, SVG can provide high-quality vector map graphics and interactive facility without special Internet GIS system. It makes it possible to use services with very low cost. Thirdly, SVG information service targeting on maritime transportation can be used as template, so it can be used dynamically any other purpose such as traffic management and vessel monitoring. Many good characteristics of SVG in mapping at computer screen and reusability of SVG document provide new era of visualization of marine geographic information.
