During the last decade, Internet protocol television(IPTV), broadcasting of multimedia services using well understood Internet technologies, is a fast spreading technology for distributing multimedia content to consumers. As IPTV services advance, an increasing user demand and tremendous content volume of multimedia content cause some difficulties in network resource management. In this paper, we propose an improved load balancing algorithm for video-on-demand(VoD) service. Unlike existing algorithms, the proposed algorithm considers user's behaviors for VoD service, and determines the most efficient allocation of VoD requests by estimating expected server load and expected user waiting time.

Efficient bandwidth management is necessary in order to provide high quality service to users in a multimedia wireless/mobile network. In this paper, I propose an on-line load balancing algorithm with preemption. This technique is able to balance the traffic load among cells accommodating heterogeneous multimedia services while ensuring efficient bandwidth utilization. The most important features of my algorithm are its adaptability, flexibility and responsiveness to current network conditions. In addition, my online scheme to control bandwidth adaptively is a cell-oriented approach. This approach has low complexity making it practical for real cellular networks. Simulation results indicate the superior performance of my algorithm.

Migrim(Migration enhanced Grid Middleware) is a communication middleware between embedded devices and multiple servers. In traditional client-server communication, users' requests are sent to and processed by a designated server even though the server may suffer from a heavy load. In addition, the designated server may not have proper information to process the user's request correctly. Proposed connection migration mechanism and transaction migration mechanism are designed to improve the performance and accuracy of request processing. The connection migration is a procedure for delegating a connection to another server, which results in a well-distributed balancing of load among the servers. The transaction migration is a procedure for delegating a transaction to another server, and improves the accuracy of response.

Cloud computing is an emerging technology based on the concept of enabling data access from anywhere, at any time, from any platform. The exponential growth of cloud users has resulted in the emergence of multiple issues, such as the workload imbalance between the virtual machines (VMs) of data centers in a cloud environment greatly impacting its overall performance. Our axis of research is the load balancing of a data center's VMs. It aims at reducing the degree of a load's imbalance between those VMs so that a better resource utilization will be provided, thus ensuring a greater quality of service. Our article focuses on two phases to balance the workload between the VMs. The first step will be the determination of the threshold of each VM before it can be considered overloaded. The second step will be a task allocation to the VMs by relying on an improved and faster version of the meta-heuristic "simulated annealing (SA)". We mainly focused on the acceptance probability of the SA, as, by modifying the content of the acceptance probability, we could ensure that the SA was able to offer a smart task distribution between the VMs in fewer loops than a classical usage of the SA.

This paper considers the scheduling of cell-based handoffs to balance the traffic in a fiber-optic microcelluar system. In the system depending on the order of cell based handoff, periodical balancing of the traffic among microcells can be achieved. The cell based handoff problem is formulated as a dynamic programming and the computational complexity is analyzed. Since the scheduling problem requires real time solution, heuristic algorithms are proposed and the computational results are discussed.

AODV나 DSR과 같은 Reactive 라우팅 방식은 트래픽이 발생되는 시점에서 경로를 탐색하는 방법으로서 최적 메시지 전송 경로가 유효하다면 트래픽의 증가와 과도한 에너지 소비를 고려하지 않고 계속적인 동일 전송 경로의 사용으로 인해 특정 노드에 대하여 에너지 소모가 심화될 뿐만 아니라 전송지연이 발생된다. 본 논문에서는 과중한 트래픽 상태를 분산 시켜 전체 네트워크의 균형적인 에너지 소비를 위하여 Reactive 라우팅 방법에서 특정 노드의 트래픽 상태, 에너지 상태, 라우팅 시간을 고려한 노드 상태 기반 부하 분산 방법(NSLB： Node Status-based Load Balancing Method)을 제안한다.

In this paper, a static synchronous compensator(STATCOM), which in general compensates reactive power, is proposed in order to balance the unbalanced loads. Reference values for the compensation of the unbalanced loads currents are determined by 3-phase circuit analysis result. Also the STATCOM control unit is designed considering the proposed compensation scheme for the unbalanced loads. As a result, the effectiveness of the STATCOM for balancing the load currents is verified by computer simulations.

In order to create security session, security keys are preconfigured between communication objects. For this purpose, Handshake Protocol exists. The pre-master secret key that is used in this process needs to interpreted by a server to create master secret key, whose process requires a big calculation, resulting in deteriorating system's transmission performance. Therefore, it is helpful in increasing transmission speed to reuse secret keys rather than to create them at every connection.

The prototype of forest fire management system on Web was studied. In the architecture of this system, one of the most important concerns is to handle load upcoming to Web Server so that it provides Web service without any delay or failure. In order to solve this problem, the agent is designed on dispatcher in a Web server cluster and implemented to distribute load dynamically by considering the information related to load coming to the Web Server such as the number of connection to the Map Server. The proposed forest fire management system has user-friendly interface with the GIS mapping functionality by selecting Map Objects Internet Map Server (MO IMS) as Map Server and is implemented using Java as programming language.
