As more mobile devices are equipped with multi-core CPUs and are required to execute many compute-intensive multimedia applications, it is important to optimize the systems, considering the underlying parallel hardware architecture. In this paper, we implement and optimize ray-tracing application tailored to a given mobile computing platform with multiple heterogeneous processing elements. In this paper, a lightweight ray-tracing application is specified and implemented in Kahn process network (KPN) model-of-computation, which is known to be suitable for the description of real-time applications. We take an open-source C/C++ implementation of ray-tracing and adapt it to KPN description in the Distributed Application Layer framework. Then, several possible configurations are evaluated in the target mobile computing platform (Exynos 5422), where eight heterogeneous ARM cores are integrated. We derive the optimal degree of parallelism and a suitable distribution of the replicated tasks tailored to the target architecture.

With the increasing number of mobile device users worldwide, utilizing mobile edge computing (MEC) devices close to users for content caching can reduce transmission latency than receiving content from a server or cloud. However, because MEC has limited storage capacity, it is necessary to determine the content types and sizes to be cached. In this study, we investigate a caching strategy that increases the hit ratio from small base stations (SBSs) for mobile users in a heterogeneous network consisting of one macro base station (MBS) and multiple SBSs. If there are several SBSs that users can access, the hit ratio can be improved by reducing duplicate content and increasing the diversity of content in SBSs. We propose a Deep Q-Network (DQN)-based caching strategy that considers time-varying content popularity and content redundancy in multiple SBSs. Content is stored in the SBS in a divided form using maximum distance separable (MDS) codes to enhance the diversity of the content. Experiments in various environments show that the proposed caching strategy outperforms the other methods in terms of hit ratio.

A smart city is a massive internet of things (IoT) environment, where all terminal devices are connected to a network to create and share information. In accordance with massive IoT environments, millions of IoT devices are connected, and countless data are generated in real time. However, since heterogeneous IoT devices are used, collecting the logs for each IoT device is difficult. Due to these issues, when an IoT device is invaded or is engaged in malicious behavior, such as infection with malware, it is difficult to respond quickly, and additional damage may occur due to information leakage or stopping the IoT device. To solve this problem, in this paper, we propose identifying the attack technique used for initial access to IoT devices through MITRE ATT&CK, collect the logs that can be generated from the identified attack technique, and use them to identify the cause of malware infection.

WPANs (Wireless personal area networks) have developed as various forms according to requirements such as data rate, coverage, subscriber volume, and supported mobile velocity. And mobile device with multiple network interfaces is very common. To make these multi-mode devices communicate with any WPAN device at anytime, anywhere, the framework for heterogeneous wireless networks is essential. Therefore, we propose the integration framework to converge heterogeneous WPANs. In this paper, we explain the requirements and detailed design of our framework, and then present the emulation test results.

Recently, the requirement of processing High Definition (HD) video or 3D application on low, mobile devices has been expanded and content data has been increased as well. It is becoming a major issue in Cloud computing where a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) Service needs efficient data processing ability to provide Quality of Experience (QoE) in Cloud computing. In this paper, we propose three kind of Thick-Thin VDI Service which can share and delegate VDI service based on Thick Client using CPU and GPU. Furthermore, we propose and discuss the VDI Service Optimization Method in mixed CPU and GPU Heterogeneous Environment using CPU Parallel Processing OpenMP and GPU Parallel Processing CUDA.

Electronic packaging technology is a technology that easily connects devices to the outside. The fourth industrial revolution is thought to be possible with the advancement of certain devices. The advancement of these devices must be accompanied by innovations in electronic packaging that connects the devices to the outside world, allowing their performances to be implemented at the system level. In this paper, the development trends of 2.5D/3D technology, heterogeneous integration technology, ultrafine interconnection technology, and heat dissipation technology will be examined, and the development direction of these technologies will be discussed.

This paper describes the method of data synchronization among devices for personal cloud services. Existing data synchronization for mobile devices is based on a central server to mobile devices or a PC to a mobile device. However, the purpose of this paper is to share user data in heterogeneous environments, without depending on central server. This technology can be applied to synchronize personal data between a device and a personal cloud storage for personal cloud services. The ad hoc synchronization needs a sync agent service discovery module, a user authentication module, a network adapter, and an application data synchronization module. The method described in this paper is better than existing synchronization technology based on client-server in availability, performance, scalability quality attributes.

As devices have evolved, traditional flip chip bonding and recently commercialized thermocompression bonding techniques have been limited. Laser-assisted bonding is attracting attention as a technology that satisfies both the requirements of mass production and the yield enhancement of advanced packaging interconnections, which are weak points of these bonding technologies. The laser-assisted bonding technique can be applied not only to a two-dimensional bonding but also to a three-dimensional stacked structure, and can be applied to various types of device bonding such as electronic devices; display devices, e.g., LEDs; and sensors.

Recent heterogeneous network management researches on information security, however, deal only with simple management using PKI and could not sufficiently address the different kinds of security problems that could arise in a heterogeneous network. Thus, various security requirements should first be satisfied and a security management protocol should first be developed to achieve a secure heterogeneous network. Hence, in this paper, various secure and effective heterogeneous network management that address security issues, which were merely a consideration in existing studies, are proposed. The proposed scheme for the protection of the user privacy is the central object and static middle objects of the process used to mutual authentication, also if communication between users is required 1-out-2 oblivious transfer to communicate by using secret communication, as well as the effectiveness and security conscious approach. Specially The proposed scheme is designed to enhance security and efficiency related to various services required in heterogeneous network, based on the reliable peripheral devices for TTP. Using Mobile device, which has been applied to electronic commerce transactions in existing schemes, this study also proposed an appropriate management scheme that is suitable for a dynamic environment and setting a temporary group to provide various services.
