최근 클라우드 기반 게이밍에서 게임 스트리밍에 대한 관심이 높다. 게임 스트리밍에서는 원격지의 게임 서버가 그래픽 렌더링 작업을 수행하고 렌더링 결과물인 씬 이미지들을 플레이어 장치에 인터넷을 통해 스트리밍하게 된다. 우리는 다중 게임 서버 기반의 게임 스트리밍 환경에서, 서버간의 GPU 부하 균등을 위한 CSA (Client-Server Allocation) 문제를 최적화 문제로 모델링하고, 그 해를 구하는 시뮬레이티드 어닐링 기반 방법을 제안한다. 우리 방법의 특징은, 네트워크 지연에 대한 제약을 고려한 것과, 필요시 신규 게임 세션의 프레임 레이트를 자동으로 하향 조절하는 기능을 지원하는 것이다.

The WiMedia alliance has specified a distributed medium access control (WiMedia MAC) protocol based on ultra wideband (UWB) for high data rate WPANs (HR-WPANs). The merits of WiMedia MAC such as distributed nature and high data rate make it a favorite candidate in HR-WPAN. Although QoS parameters such as the range of service rates are provided to a traffic stream, the WiMedia MAC is not able to use the QoS parameters and to determine or adjust a service rate using the QoS parameters for the traffic stream. In this paper, we propose a fair and adaptive resource allocation method that allocates time slots to isochronous streams according to QoS parameters and the current traffic load condition in a fully distributed manner. Although the traffic load condition changes, each device independently recognizes the changes and calculates fair and maximum allowable service rates for traffic streams. From the numerical and simulation results, it is proved that the proposed method achieves high capacity of traffic streams and fair QoS provisioning under various traffic load condition.

모바일 멀티미디어 환경에서 초고속의 서비스를 요구하는 다수의 사용자를 수용하려면 마이크로/피코 셀과 같이 셀의 크기를 더욱 줄여서 무선 자원의 재사용성을 증대시켜야 한다. 특히 멀티미디어 트래픽의 전송 중에 핸드오버가 발생한다면, 멀티미디어 트래픽의 QoS가 지연 및 손실에 의하여 영향 받기 때문에 정지 상태와 동일한 QoS를 유지하기 위하여 효율적인 자원 예약 및 할당 방안이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 차세대 이동 통신망에서 멀티미디어 서비스의 효율적인 QoS를 제공하기 위한 방안의 하나로서, 수락 제어, 부하 제어 그리고 패킷 스케쥴러와 밀접한 관련성을 갖는 자원 할당 방법을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안된 방법의 우수성을 평가한다.

분산-큐 이중-버스(DQDB)는 단일 방향 버스 구조를 갖는 망의 고유 특성으로 인해 대역폭 할당에 있어 공정하지 않다. 지금까지 DQDB에서 공정성 제어 연구는 대부분 평형 부하. 대칭형 부하, 비대칭형 부하 형태와 같은 특정 부하 형태를 대상으로 수행하였다. 웹 환경에서 클라이언트-서버 부하 형태는 특정 부하 형태 보다 더 실질적인 트래픽 패턴이다. 본 논문에서는 웹 환경에서 DQDB에 접속된 각 스테이션들에게 대역폭을 공정하게 할당하기 위해, 대역폭 요구 패턴으로부터 직접 접근 임계값을 구하여, 이 값을 기준으로 하여 클라이언트 쪽에서 빈 슬롯을 서버에게 양보함으로써 대역폭을 제어하는 방식을 제안하였다. 그리고 시뮬레이션을 통하여 다른 방식보다 제안한 방식이 더 우수하다는 것을 확인하였다.

To solve the problems of heavy computing load and system transmission pressure in energy internet (EI), we establish a three-tier cloud-edge integrated EI network based on a cloud-edge collaborative computing to achieve the tradeoff between energy consumption and the system delay. A joint optimization problem for resource allocation and task offloading in the threetier cloud-edge integrated EI network is formulated to minimize the total system cost under the constraints of the task scheduling binary variables of each sensor node, the maximum uplink transmit power of each sensor node, the limited computation capability of the sensor node and the maximum computation resource of each edge server, which is a Mixed Integer Non-linear Programming (MINLP) problem. To solve the problem, we propose a joint task offloading and resource allocation algorithm (JTOARA), which is decomposed into three subproblems including the uplink transmission power allocation sub-problem, the computation resource allocation sub-problem, and the offloading scheme selection subproblem. Then, the power allocation of each sensor node is achieved by bisection search algorithm, which has a fast convergence. While the computation resource allocation is derived by line optimization method and convex optimization theory. Finally, to achieve the optimal task offloading, we propose a cloud-edge collaborative computation offloading schemes based on game theory and prove the existence of Nash Equilibrium. The simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm can improve output performance as comparing with the conventional algorithms, and its performance is close to the that of the enumerative algorithm.

Increasing convergence among heterogeneous radio networks is expected to be a key feature of future ubiquitous services. The convergence of radio networks in combination with dynamic spectrum allocation (DSA) could be a beneficial means to solve the growing demand for radio spectrum. DSA might enhance the spectrum utilization of involved radio networks to comply with user requirements for high-quality multimedia services. This paper proposes a simple spectrum allocation algorithm and presents an analytical model of dynamic spectrum resource allocation between two networks using a 4-D Markov chain. We argue that there may exist a break-even point for choosing whether or not to adopt DSA in a system. We point out certain circumstances where DSA is not a viable alternative. We also discuss the performance of DSA against the degree of resource sharing using the proposed analytical model and simulations. The presented analytical model is not restricted to DSA, and can be applied to a general resource sharing study.

In order to ensure the wireless connectivity and seamless service to mobile users, the next generation network system will be an integration of multiple wireless access networks. In a heterogeneous wireless access system, bandwidth allocation becomes crucial for load balancing to avoid network congestion and improve system utilization efficiency. In this article, we propose a new dynamic bandwidth allocation scheme for hierarchical wireless network systems. First, we derive a multi-objective decision criterion for each access point. Second, a bargaining strategy selection algorithm is developed for the dynamic bandwidth re-allocation. Based on the intervenient Stackelberg game model, the proposed scheme effectively formulates the competitive interaction situation between several access points. The system performance of proposed scheme is evaluated by using extensive simulations. With a simulation study, it is confirmed that the proposed scheme can achieve better performance than other existing schemes under widely diverse network environments.

This paper proposes a shortest path allocation algorithm over the processors on the hypercube system based on the message passing techniques with the optimized module allocation. On multiprocessor systems, how to divide one task into multiple tasks efficiently is an important issue due to the hardness of the life cycle estimation of each process. To solve the life cycle discrepancies, the appropriate task assignment to each processor and the flexible communications among the processors are indispensible. With the concurrent program execution on hypercube systems, each process communicaties to others with the method of message passing. And, each processor has its own memory. The proposed algorithm generates a callable tree out of the module, assigns the weight factors, constructs the allocation graph, finds the shortest path allocation tree, and maps them with hypercube.

Real-Time applications on Grid environment have several problems in terms of resource management addressed as follows; (1) dynamic resource allocation to provide QoS objectives, (2) heterogeneous resources that is different scale, or capacity in same unit, and (3) resource availability, and resource needs. This paper describes the techniques of resource manager (RM) handling above problems to support QoS of dynamic real-time applications on Grid. The contributions of this paper to solve problems are as follows: unification of dynamic resource requirements among heterogeneous hosts, control of resources in heterogeneous environments, and dynamic load balancing/sharing. Our heuristic allocation scheme works not only 257% better than random, 142% better than round robin, and 36.4% better than least load in QoS sensitivity, but also 38.6% better than random, 28.5% better than round robin, and 31.6% better than least load in QoS.

A smart grid is a next-generation power grid that can improve energy efficiency by applying information and communication technology to the general power grid. The smart grid makes it possible to exchange information about electricity production and consumption between electricity providers and consumers in real-time. Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is the core technology of the smart grid. The AMI provides two-way communication by installing a modem in an existing digital meter and typically include smart meters, data collection units, and meter data management systems. Because the AMI requires data collection units to control multiple smart meters, it is essential to ensure network availability under heavy network loads. If the load on the work done by the data collection unit is high, it is necessary to allocation new data collection units to ensure availability and improve energy efficiency. In this paper, we discuss the allocation scheme of data collection units for the energy efficiency of the AMI.
