  • This thesis describes the key elements for efficient customs clearance system which can facilitate flow of maritime container cargo in the pier area of Busan port, on the basis of considering great changes on international trade environment, development of customs clearance system, variation of commercial container traffic, and diverse views originated from field experience in the distribution industry. To facilitate the flow of maritime containers, reform plan of bonded-transportation and import declaration is proposed to relieve the customs restriction during the days from discharging cargos to taking them into bonded warehouse. Also, various plans to strengthen maritime security, such as customs exam of high-risk export cargos in loading port, pre-declaration of transit container replacement, container tracing system, are proposed to improve Busan port's competitiveness in safety.

  • A transient 3-D numerical simulation was performed to analyze the fire safety in a railway tunnel equipped with a mechanical ventilation system. The behavior of pollutants was studied for the emergency operation mode of ventilation system in case of fire in the center of the rescue station and near the escape route. Various schemes of escape route construction for connection angle($45^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, 135^{\circ}$) and slope($10^{\circ}$) were evaluated for the ventilation efficiency in the fire near the escape route. From the results, it was shown that the mode of the ventilation fan operation which pressurizes the tunnel not under the fire and ventilates the smoke from the tunnel under the fire is most effective for the smoke control in the tunnel in case of the fire occurrence. It was also shown that the blowing of jet fan from the rescue tunnel to the main tunnel should be in the same direction as the flow direction in the main tunnel arising from the traffic and the buoyancy.

  • 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.

  • Stateful inspection devices must maintain flow information. These devices create the flow information also for network attack packets, and it can fatally inflate the dynamic memory allocation on stateful inspection devices under network attacks. The memory inflation leads to memory overflow and subsequent performance degradation. In this paper, we present a guideline to set the flow entry timeout for a stateful inspection device to remove harmful embryonic entries created by network attacks. Considering Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) if utilized by most of these attacks as well as legitimate traffic, we propose a parsimonious memory management guideline based on the design of the TCP and the analysis of real-life Internet traces. In particular, we demonstrate that for all practical purposes one should not reserve memory for an embryonic TCP connection with more than (R+T) seconds of inactivity where R=0, 3, 9 and $1\leqq{T}\leqq{2}$ depending on the load level.

  • In a centralized control structure, the software defined network controller manages all openflow enabled switched in a data plane and controls the telecommunication between all hosts. In addition, the network manager can easily deploy the network function to the application layer with a software defined network controller. For this reason, many methods for network management using a software defined network concept have been proposed. The main policies for network management are related to traffic Quality of Service and resource management. In order to provide Quality of Service and load distribution for network users, we propose an efficient routing method using a naive bayesian algorithm and transmission delay estimation module. In this method, the forwarding path is decided by flow class and estimated transmission delay result in the software defined network controller. With this method, the load on the network node can be distributed to improve overall network performance. The network user also gets better dynamic Quality of Service.

  • Sewage separation which often involves installing a new pipe to separate wastewater flow from stormwater runoff flow can be costly and depends highly on its feasibility in a site. To be able to develop a potentially more economical alternative that can also lessen major road traffic disturbance during this process, a different approach where a smaller sewage separator pipe is installed inside an existing combined sewer pipe was investigated. A small-scale of a box sewer and the proposed sewage separator pipe was constructed in the laboratory to observe and compare the deposition of solids and other solid-associated major pollutants at different flow rates. In addition, three-dimensional flow simulations considering five different scenarios were conducted using Ansys Fluent to observe the effect of the proposed sewage separator pipe to the hydraulic flow if installed inside the combined sewer pipe. Results revealed that the deposition of TSS, TCOD, TN, and TP were reduced by at least 60% when the wastewater was conveyed by the sewage separator pipe instead of the combined sewer pipe. Moreover, the flow simulations conducted showed that there was little to no major disturbance in hydraulic flow and velocity distribution when the sewage separator was installed inside a straight pipe and even at pipe transitions such as intersections, turns, and drop in elevation. Considering the pipe dimensions and the results of the study, the proposed approach can be promising in terms of reduction in pollutant deposition without a major effect on the hydraulic flow. Further investigation and cost-analysis should be done in the future to support these preliminary findings and help alleviate the problems caused by combined sewer overflows by introducing an alternative approach.

  • In this paper, we use a LiDAR sensor and an image camera to detect a left-turning waiting vehicle in two ways, unlike the existing image-type or loop-type left-turn detection system, and a left-turn traffic signal corresponding to the waiting length of the left-turning lane. A system that can efficiently assign a system is introduced. For the LiDAR signal transmitted and received by the LiDAR sensor, the left-turn waiting vehicle is detected in real time, and the image by the video camera is analyzed in real time or at regular intervals, thereby reducing unnecessary computational processing and enabling real-time sensitive processing. As a result of performing a performance test for 5 hours every day for one week with an intersection simulation using an actual signal processor, a detection rate of 99.9%, which was improved by 3% to 5% compared to the existing method, was recorded. The advantage is that 99.9% of vehicles waiting to turn left are detected by the LiDAR sensor, and even if an intentional omission of detection occurs, an immediate response is possible through self-correction using the video, so the excessive waiting time of vehicles waiting to turn left is controlled by all lanes in the intersection. was able to guide the flow of traffic smoothly. In addition, when applied to an intersection in the outskirts of which left-turning vehicles are rare, service reliability and efficiency can be improved by reducing unnecessary signal costs.

  • 최근 네트워크의 속도가 빨라지고 멀티미디어 데이터를 다루기 위한 기술들이 개발됨에 따라 많은 멀티미디어 응용 프로그램들이 인터넷에 등장하고 있다. 그러나 이들 응용프로그램들은 수신자에게 전송되는 영상.음성의 품질이 낮기 때문에 기대만큼 빠르게 확산되지 못하고 있다. 영상.음성의 품질이 낮은 이유는 현재 인터넷이 실시간 응용프로그램이 요구하는 만큼 빠르고 신뢰성 있게 데이터를 전송할 수 없기 때문이다. 현재 인터넷의 내부구조를 바꾸지 않고 품질을 높이기 위해 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있는데 그 중 하나는 동적으로 변화하는 인터넷의 상태에 맞게 멀티캐스트 트래픽의 전송율을 조절하는 종단간의 흐름제어이다. 본 논문은 기존의 흐름제어 기법인 IVS와 RLM의 성능을 개선시키기 위한 두 가지 흐름제어 기법을 소개한다. IVS는 송신자가 주기적으로 측정된 네트워크 상태에 따라 전송율을 일정하게 조절한다. 송신자가 하나의 데이타 스트림을 생성하는 IVS와는 달리 RLM에서는 송신자가 계층적 코딩에 의하여 생성된 여러개의 데이타 스트림을 전송하고 각 수신자는 자신의 네트워크 상태에 맞게 데이타 스트림을 선택하는 기법이다. 그러나 IVS는 송신자가 전송율을 일정하게 증가시키고, RLM은 각자의 네트워크 상태를 고려하지 않고 임의의 시간에 하나 이상의 데이타 스트림을 받기 때문에 성능을 저하시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 TCP-like IVS와 Adaptive RLM이라는 두 가지 새로운 기법을 소개한다. TCP-like IVS는 송신자가 전송율을 동적으로 결정하고, Adaptive RLM은 하나 이상의 데이타 스트림을 받기 위해 적당한 시간을 선택할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 시뮬레이션을 통해 여러 가지 네트워크 구조에서 두 가지 방식이 기존의 방식에 비하여 더욱 높은 대역폭 이용율과 10~20% 정도 적은 패킷손실율을 이룬다는 것을 보여준다.Abstract Nowadays, many multimedia applications for the Internet are introduced as the network gets faster and many techniques manipulating multimedia data are developed. These multimedia applications, however, do not spread widely and are not fast as expected at their introduction time due to the poor quality of image and voice delivered at receivers. The poor quality is mainly attributed to that the current Internet can not carry data as fast and reliably as the real-time applications require. To improve the quality without modifying the internal structure of the current Internet, many researches are conducted. One of them is an end-to-end flow control of multicast traffic adapting the sending rate to the dynamically varying Internet state. This paper proposes two flow-control techniques which can improve the performance of the two conventional techniques; IVS and RLM. IVS statically adjusts the sending rate based on the network state periodically estimated. Differently from IVS in which a sender produces one single data stream, in RLM a sender transmits several data streams generated by the layered coding scheme and each receiver selects some data streams based on its own network state. The more data streams a receiver receives, the better quality of image or voice the receiver can produce. The two techniques, however, can degrade the performance since IVS increases its sending rate statically and RLM accepts one more data stream at arbitrary time regardless of the network state respectively. We introduce two new techniques called TCP-like IVS and Adaptive RLM; TCP-like IVS can determine the sending rate dynamically and Adaptive RLM can select the right time to add one more data stream. Our simulation experiments show that two techniques can achieve better utilization and less packet loss by 10-20% over various network topologies.

  • The COSMOS is an adaptive traffic control systems that can adjust signal timing parameters in response to various traffic conditions. To evaluate the performance of the COSMOS systems, the field study is only practical option because any evaluation tools are not available. To overcome this limitation, a newly integrated interfacing simulator between a microscopic simulation program and COSMOS was developed. In this paper, a detector module and a signal timing module as well as general feature of the simulator were described. A validation test was performed to verify the accuracy of the data flow within the simulator. It was shown that the accuracy level of information from the simulator was high enough for real application. Several practical comments on further studies were also included to enhance the functional specifications of the simulator.

  • Unbalanced traffic load offered to the nodes making up a path in the network guaranteeing quality-of-service has been known as a main cause deteriorating the capability of the path in admitting traffic flows. Several path load balancing methods have been developed to resolve this problem which used a feedback control scheme that adjusts the delay budget of a flow allocated to each node according to the conditions of available resource in the path. Because of no consideration about the probabilistic characteristics of the service quality, it is impossible for them to prevent in advance a bottleneck on the path which leads to a native restriction in the improvement of the capability being deteriorated. This paper proposes a preventive intra-path load balancing method applicable to the RSVP system which is based on the probabilistic characteristics of the quality-of-service of the offered load. The results of the simulation of the proposed method on a simple evaluation network showed that it provides the gain of 4~22% compared to the legacy one in terms of the number of admitted flows.
