이동 컴퓨팅 환경에서 미디어 서비스를 할 경우 일반 웹 서비스와는 달리 설러 가지 문제들이 발생한다 예를 들면 무선망의 특성상 네트워크 대역폭이 낮고, 네트워크 단절이 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 무선망의 이런 특성에도 불구하고 이동 컴퓨팅 환경에서 실시간 멀티미디어 서비스를 무선 단말에 원활하게 제공하는 방법으로 two-tiered proxy system을 제안한다. 그리고, 효율적인 캐시 관리 메커니즘과 효과적인 handoff를 지원하기 위한 proxy transfer protocol를 또한 제안한다.

The rapid increase of mobile devices such as smart phone and smart pad have raised the needs for seamless multimedia services during moving at anytime and anywhere. Current 4G mobile devices are equipped with both 4G (LTE) and WLAN (WiFi) interfaces, and mobile services operators provide wireless Internet services using 4G network with a wider coverage and WiFi zone. Generally users prefer to use the Internet services through WLAN rather than LTE in the coverage of WLAN. However, since WLAN has a long L2 handover latency, it is difficult to support seamless services during a handover. In this paper, we proposed an efficient handover scheme based on flow mobility for WLANs to support a seamless service during handovers by using the overlaid 4G network with a wider coverage. Also, we showed the outperformance of the proposed scheme on a testbed.

DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting for Handhold) is a new standard, currently being developed for a portable digital broadcasting, which enhance the multimedia broadcasting service in the Euroapean standard DVB-T (DVB-Terrestrial). Seamless mobility and power saving are essential requirements in the DVB-H system. To support seamless mobility, DVB-H system should provides seamless handover for mobile stations in the MFN (multi frequency network). For seamless handover, the receiver should monitor neighboring cells and it increases the power consumption. And so, power efficient sell searching algorithm for seamless handover is required. In this paper, we propose hypothesis feeling based handover algorithm to enhance the power efficiency by using the fast cell searching, and analyze the performance of handover schemes through the numerical evaluation and simulation.

The development of multimedia applications has followed the development of high-speed networks. By improving the performance of mobile devices, it is possible to provide high-transfer-speed broadband and seamless mobile multicasting services between indoor and outdoor environments. Multicasting services support efficient group communications. However, mobile multicasting services have two constraints: tunnel convergence and handoff latency. In order to solve these problems, many protocols and handoff methods have been studied. In this paper, we propose inter local mobility anchor (inter-LMA) optimized handoff model for mobile multicasting services in proxy mobility IPv6 based (PMIPv6-based) networks. The proposed model removes the tunnel convergence issue and reduces the router processing costs. Further, it the proposed model allows for the execution of fast handoff operations with adaptive transmission mechanisms. In addition, the proposed scheme exhibits low packet delivery costs and handoff latency in comparison with existing schemes and ensures fast handoff when moving the inter-LMA domain.

Recently, as the use of mobile terminal is generalized, the needs of high-speed Internet mobile service is increased. Also users want to receive the multimedia contents what they want through the various terminals in anywhere, anytime via wired and wireless integrated environment. Therefore, various mechanisms that support the mobility are proposed. However, these mechanisms are difficult to support seamless mobility and QoS awareness on the mobile multicast environment. In this paper, we propose a QoS aware handover mechanism that is able to provide the high-quality and real-time services such as mobile IPTV in an integrated environment for these requests of users. Proposed mechanism manages the multicast admission control and multicast handover using the 2-layer multicast information management at the wired and wireless integrated network that extended the service guaranteed methods through the probing based admission control of the wired network to the wireless network based on PMIPv6. We present a performance evaluation results and features analyzed by the simulations using the ㎱-2.

Video adaptation in response to dynamic resource conditions and user preferences is required as a key technology to enable universal multimedia access (UMA) through heterogeneous networks by a multitude of devices in a seamless way. Although many adaptation techniques exist, selections of appropriate adaptations among multiple choices are often ad hoc. To provide a systematic solution, we present a general conceptual framework to model video entity, adaptation, resource, utility, and relations among them. It allows for formulation of various adaptation problems as resource-constrained utility maximization. We apply the framework to a practical case of dynamic bit rate adaptation. Furthermore, we present a description tool, which has been accepted as a part of the MPEG-21 Digital Item Adaptation (DIA), along with a brief overview of the .elated descriptors to support terminal and network quality of service (QoS).

Radio wave is the valuable resources in $21^{st}$ century. It will be widely used in various applications such as DMB, USN, telematics, and home network as well as mobile and wireless communications. Cognitive Radio technology is devised to maximize the utilization of radio resources by sensing near-by spectrum and dynamic and allocating free resources dynamically and adaptively. Wireless links for the secondary user need to be frequently switched to idle frequencies during the transmission of multimedia data in the cognitive radio based system. This may cause delay and information loss, and QoS degradations occur inevitably. The efficient frequency allocation scheme is necessary to support the seamless multimedia service to the secondary user while maintaining QoS of the primary user. This paper suggests a frequency selection scheme which considers other parameters such as cell load, data rate, and available bandwidth than just received signal strength during the frequency selection process. The performance of our proposed scheme is analyzed by simulation.

Mobile computing refers to an emerging new computing environment incorporating both wireless and wired high-speed networking technologies. In the near future, it is expected that mobile users will have access to a wide variety of services that will be made available over highspeed networks. The quality of these services in the high-speed networks can be specified in terms of several QoS paameters. The important QoS parameter in mobile computings is the guarantee for seamless communication which is to provide disruption free service to mobile users. A disruption in service could occur due to active handoffs. This paper proposes an extended staggened muticast approach which provides a probabilistic guarantee for disruption free service. The extended staggerd multicast approach estimates mobility direction and mobility velocity for a user. It is possible that data packets for a mobile host are multicasted to not all neighbor cells but a part of neighbor cells on the basis of these information. Therefore, the extended staggered multicast significantly reduces the static network bandwidth usage also provides a probabilistic guarantee for disruption free service.

In this paper, we study a multicast transport technique for multimedia services of mobile hosts in wireless network environments. To reduce packet loss during hand-off, we propose a Pre-join scheme in overlapped area and a Buffering scheme in crossover routers. To support seamless service in real time multimedia application, these scheme use an optimal path routing which was provided in remote subscription scheme and a prediction scheme of host movements which was considered overlapped area. To evaluate the peformance of our scheme, we compare Bi-direction tunneling of mobile If, Remote subscription, and MoM by using NS-2. As a result, our scheme shows better performance in network overhead, packet loss and bandwidth's use than other schemes.
