This paper presents the ways that can improve the Software Cost Estimation Guidelines in order to replace those that are expected to be abolished at February, 2012, and solve the problems that are being occurred in the current Software Cost Estimation Guidelines. By using multidimensional modeling of OLAP(On-Line Analytical Processing), this paper does three dimensional modeling that considers the product/service view, process view and skill view. Also, it presents the identification method of cost estimation data through the view of each dimension. Furthermore, it defines the software cost estimation process and adapts them into the bottom up estimation and the top down estimation. Finally, it proposes the access of cost estimation data by the multidimensional analysis of OLAP.

Currently the telephone service using Internet grows and the recent introduction of a smart phone is expected to accelerate the trend. In particular, considering the domestic situation that the wireless broadband (WiBro) system deployed over the nation, the telephone service over WiBro can be a solution toward its fast expansion. Unlike telephone service over a conventional telephone network or mobile network, however, internet telephone cannot guarantee it service quality, which can be severer in a wireless environment such as a WiBro network. Therefore, a more strict and systematic management for controlling the quality of internet telephone service over WiBro in a more efficient way. As the first step to establish the management system, this paper proposes a scheme to manage the quality of internet telephone service over WiBro and introduces a software developed for the purpose. The developed software is installed on a user terminal and facilitates efficient service quality management by measuring the quality of internet telephone service over WiBro in terms of VoIP metric, network metric, and wireless metric.

A cloud computing service provider must assure Service Level Agreement (SLA) to provide reliable and consistent quality of service to a user. The SLA is a contract between the user and the service provider that connects to assure constant level such as availability to target provided service. The cloud computing is classified into IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS according to IT resources of the various cloud service. The existing SLA is difficult to reflect quality factors of service because it only considers factors about the physical Network environment. In this paper, we suggest the UDDI-based interchange process with the architecture and the specification language having a XML schema for the SLA specification. The quality requirements of SaaS are defined by a proposed specification language in the cloud environment. It is stored in the repository of a quality specification and exchanged on during the service binding time based on the exchange architecture.

In this paper, to manage the efficient control of IP packet flows crossing multi-provider networks such as Internet, we propose a SDN(Software Defined Networking)-based policy controller. The proposed policy controller leverages the visibility of underlying network and manages both virtual links and ports to inter-connect networking elements. The controller is capable of quickly composing multiple on-demand virtual networks and dynamically managing the composed networks, thus it can provide more flexible and optimized overlay networking environment to end-user applications. More specifically, we first look into the proposed structure and features of policy controller. With two kinds of service applications, we then verify the applicability of the proposed controller by evaluating its service composition time.

The global recession circumstances, cloud computing has emerged as a new paradigm in the business IT sector. This paper focuses on Software as a Service (SaaS) among cloud services. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) has been popularly utilized for examining how users come to accept a new technology, but have not yet been employed to handle issues regarding SaaS adoption. This paper aims at developing an exploratory model that examines important factors affecting SaaS adoption of small and medium sized companies. The proposed exploratory model tests a number of hypotheses which integrate TAM related theories with additional imperative constructs such as marketing effort. Thus, the findings of this study can not only help company users gain insights into SaaS adoption, but also help SaaS providers obtain inspiration in their efforts to discover more effective courses of action for developing their service and improving marketing strategy.

Each cloud service has numerous owners and tenants, so it is necessary to construct a privacy preserving identity management and access control mechanism for cloud computing. On one hand, cloud service providers (CSP) depend on tenant's identity information to enforce appropriate access control so that cloud resources are only accessed by the authorized tenants who are willing to pay. On the other hand, tenants wish to protect their personalized service access patterns, identity privacy information and accessing newfangled cloud services by on-demand ways within the scope of their permissions. There are many identity authentication and access control schemes to address these challenges to some degree, however, there are still some limitations. In this paper, we propose a new comprehensive approach, called Privacy pReserving Identity and Access Management scheme, referred to as PRIAM, which is able to satisfy all the desirable security requirements in cloud computing. The main contributions of the proposed PRIAM scheme are threefold. First, it leverages blind signature and hash chain to protect tenant's identity privacy and implement secure mutual authentication. Second, it employs the service-level agreements to provide flexible and on-demand access control for both tenants and cloud services. Third, it makes use of the BAN logic to formally verify the correctness of the proposed protocols. As a result, our proposed PRIAM scheme is suitable to cloud computing thanks to its simplicity, correctness, low overhead, and efficiency.

In this study, we present how to improve the current seismic disaster information service by utilizing Shake, which can express the effects of earthquakes in the form of isolines. Using ShakeMap software provided by the U.S. Geological Survey, an automated rapid ShakeMap generation system was implemented, and based on this, an earthquake disaster information service improvement model was presented to identify earthquake risk in the form of intensity or peak ground acceleration. In order to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the improved model, the seismic disaster information service app. was developed and operated on a trial basis in Pohang, Gyeongsangbuk-do. As a result of the operation, it was found that more detailed seismic risk information could be provided by providing information using rapid ShakeMap to induce users' safety behavior more effectively.
