In this paper, we consider a network optimization problem arising from the deployment of BcN access network. BcN convergence services requires that access networks satisfy QoS meausres. BcN services have two types of traffics : stream traffic and elastic traffic. Stream traffic uses blocking probability as a QoS measure, while elastic traffic uses delay factor as a QoS measure. Incorporating the QoS requirements, we formulate the problem as a nonlinear mixed-integer Programming model. The Proposed model seeks to find a minimum cost dimensioning solution, while satisfying the QoS requirement. We propose two local search heuristic algorithms for solving the problem, and develop a network design system that implements the developed heuristic algorithms. We demonstrate the computational efficacy of the proposed algorithm by solving a realistic network design problem.

Current Internet and Intranet developments are focusing on network multimedia services involving the transport of real-time multimedia streams. In this paper, we present a real-time MPEG2 Encoding/Decoding systems and a MPEG2 stream player running on client systems based on real-time transport protocol(RTP). The MPEG2 player has been implemented by using JMF and java applet. We have tested our prototype systems with one of possible multimedia sources, camcoder, to verify its functional correctness and measure its performance.

At recent, the Internet is evolving into the directions which is capable of incorporating stream-type services such as voice and video services due to the remarkable growth of WWW service and the development of new multimedia application services. However, the existing Internet can only support a best-effort delivery model and thus it is difficult to satisfy these requirements as well as to provide the QoS beyond a certain degree. Accordingly, it is imperative to develop QoS-based routing algorithm in order to allow flexible routing by the Internet user's QoS demand and to be applied into wide area networks. In this paper, we presented new routing algorithms for next generation Internet services and made performance evaluations. The proposed algorithms allow the routing by the user's QoS demand level in order to provide the diverse Internet application services based on ATM network environment that is expected to play a role as an infrastructure of next Generation Internet Services.

Recently, human based computing environment for supporting users to concentrate only user task without sensing other changes from users is being progressively researched and developed. But middleware deletes steream data processed for reducing process load of massive information from RFID sensor in this computing. So, this kind of middleware have problems when user demands probability or statistics needed for data warehousing or data mining and when user demands very important stream data repeatedly but already discarded in the middleware every former time. In this paper, we designs Sensor Middleware Architecture on Multi Level Spatial DBMS with Snapshot and manage repeatedly required stream datas to solve reusing problems of historical stream data in current middleware. This system uses disk databse that manages historical stream datas filtered in middleware for requiring services using historical stream information as data mining or data warehousing from user, and uses memory database that mamages highly reuseable data as a snapshot when stream data storaged in disk database has high reuse frequency from user. For the more, this system processes memory database management policy in a cycle to maintain high reusement and rapid service for users. Our paper system solves problems of repeated requirement of stream datas, or a policy decision service using historical stream data of current middleware. Also offers variant and rapid data services maintaining high data reusement of main memory snapshot datas.

Techniques for processing continuous queries are required to developing the various types of application services (monitoring services) in ubiquitous environment where the real-time data acquisition from a lot of sensors, analysis, and processing are required. In the previous works of the continuous queries, they have represented all of the continuous queries as the interval queries or region queries, and proposed some methods for processing theses queries. The types of continuous queries, however, are very various, and could be presented by combining the attribute conditions, spatial conditions, and temporal conditions. In this paper, I have classify the types of continuous queries, and have proposed the continuous query model which could be presented by combining those conditions. The contributions of this paper include that it proposes the query model representing the continuous queries and suggests future research directions.

Recently, due to the prevalence of various mobile devices and wireless broadband networks, there has been a significant increase in interest and demand for multimedia streaming services such as the mobile IPTV. In such a wireless broadband network, transmitting a continuous stream of multimedia data is difficult to achieve due to mobile stations (MSs) movement. Providing Quality of Service (QoS) for multimedia video streaming applications requires the server and/or client to be network-aware and adaptive. Therefore, in order to deploy a mobile IPTV service in wireless broadband networks, offering users efficient wireless resource utilization and seamlessly offering user perceived QoS are important issues. In this paper, we propose a new adaptive streaming scheme, called MARC (Mobile-aware Adaptive Rate Control), which adjusts the quality of bit-stream and transmission rate of video streaming based on the wireless channel status and network status. The proposed scheme can control the rate of multimedia streaming to be suitable for the wireless channel status by using awareness information of the wireless channel quality and the mobile station location. The proposed scheme can provide a seamless multimedia playback service in wireless broadband networks in addition to improving the QoS of multimedia streaming services. The proposed MARC scheme alleviates the discontinuity of multimedia playback and allocates a suitable client buffer to the wireless broadband network. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed scheme.

To support multimedia services between network domains with different environments, it is required to map the functionalities in many aspects. In this paper, we implemented interworking gateway which provides protocol conversion and QoS(Quality of Service) adaptation to interwork DAVIC services based on ATM(Asynchronous TRansfer Model )network and Internet AV services. The interworking gateway converts RTSP(Real-Time Streaming Protocol ) message into DSM-CC(Digital Storage Media Command & Control) messages to control the stream that is served in ATM network, and transmits data stream by using RTP(Real-Time Transport Protocol) The interworking gateway provides QoS adaptation functionalities by QoS monitoring and MPEG filtering to meet the variation of network bandwidth.

This paper suggests structures of the Object Descriptor and the Elementary Stream Descriptor that provide multi-view video services in 3-Dimensional Audio Video technical standards of current MPEG-4. First, it defines that the structures of the Object Descriptor and the Elementary Stream Descriptor on established MPEG-4 system, then distributes individually, and analyzes that. But extension of established system is inappropriate for providing multi-view audio video services connected transmissions and receptions. And, this paper suggests a structure of new Object Descriptor able to switch viewpoints that considers the correlation between each viewpoints, when multi-view video is transmitted. By means of that, it is able to switch viewpoints according to a requirement of a user in a multi-view video services, and reduce overheads for transmitting information about necessary viewpoint.

This paper presents the design and implementation of stream control mechanisms which are necessary for the development of an efficient streaming cache server. The streaming protocols used in our implementation are the RTSP/RTP/RTCP standards. The mechanisms support both the on-demand media caching and real-time media splitting applications. The core of the stream control includes the session management, which handles the RTSP/RTCP control session and the RTP transport session, and the cache block management which efficiently manages the RTP-based cache blocks stored in the cache server. The streaming cache server with the proposed stream control mechanism has successfully been implemented on a Linux platform and it works well with the Apple's QTSS server and the QuickTime player for both on-demand and splitting media services.
