HTTP or audio/video streaming services are good candidates for future centralized navigation system and in order to provide stability for such services, service providers use a cluster of web servers. In this paper, we provide the criteria for web server cluster design of vehicular users with consideration of differentiated access per different user classes. Several feasible scenarios are examined and their performance analysis using queueing theory is presented to provide the foundation for web server cluster design using traffic load balancer. Through the thorough analysis, efficient criteria for traffic load balancer design is derived. In order to satisfy users' service requirements, priority services controlled by traffic load balancer are considered and analyzed. We also provide the evaluation of the accuracy of the analytical model through simulation.

In this paper, for continuous media access operations performed by Clustered Continuous Media Storage Server (CCMSS) system, we present the analytical model based on the open queueing network, which considers simultaneously two critical delay factors, the disk I/O and the internal network, in the CCMSS system. And we derive by using the analytical model the stochastic model for the total service delay time in the system. Next, we propose the integrated stochastic admission control model for the CCMSS system, which estimate the maximum number of admittable service requests at the allowable service failure rate by using the derived stochastic model and apply the derived number of requests in the admission control operation. For the performance evaluation of the proposed model, we evaluated the deadline miss rates by means of the previous stochastic model considering only the disk I/O and the propose stochastic model considering the disk I/O and the internal network, and compared the values with the results obtained from the simulation under the real cluster-based distributed media server environment. The evaluation showed that the proposed admission control policy reflects more precisely the delay factors in the CCMSS system.

VoIP service is a transmission of voice data using SIP protocol on IP based network, The SIP protocol has many advantages such as providing IP based voice communication and multimedia service with cheap communication cost and so on. Therefore the SIP protocol spread out very quickly. But, SIP protocol exposes new forms of vulnerabilities on malicious attacks such as Message Flooding attack and protocol parsing attack. And it also suffers threats from many existing vulnerabilities like on IP based protocol. In this paper, we propose a new Virtual Proxy Server system in front of the existed Proxy Server for anomaly detection of SIP attack and stateful management of SIP session with enhanced security. Based on stateful virtual proxy server, out solution shows promising SIP Message Flooding attack verification and detection performance with minimized latency on SIP packet transmission.

In general multi-view system, all the view sequences acquired at the server are transmitted to the client. However, this kind of system requires high processing power of the server as well as the client, thus it is posing a difficulty in practical applications. To overcome this problem, a relatively simple method is to transmit only two view-sequences requested by the client in order to deliver a stereoscopic video. In this system, effective communication between the server and the client is one of important aspects. Therefore, we propose an efficient multi-view system that transmits two view-sequences according to user's request. The view selection process is integrated into MPEG-21 DIA (Digital Item Adaptation) so that our system is compatible to MPEG-21 multimedia framework. Furthermore, multi-view descriptors related to multi-view camera and systems are newly introduced. The syntax of the descriptions and their elements is represented in XML (extensible Markup Language) schema. Intermediate view reconstruction (IVR) is used to reduce such discomfort with excessive disparity. Furthermore, IVR is useful for smooth transition between two stereoscopic view sequences. Finally, through the implementation of testbed, we can show the valuables and possibilities of our system.

As the Internet grows and the mass multimedia data become popular, the storage system migrates from DAS, where the storage and the server are directly connected, to SAN and NAS. SAN connects the storages with a separate network, and NAS provides only file services, connects the storages with IP network. However, SAN and NAS can not fulfill the needs for companies if used separately, thus are asked to be integrated. In this research, we propose an efficient data sharing method which employees the concept of GMC, Croup Master Cache for the integrated environment of SAN and NAS. GMC is based on MCI, Metadata server and Cluster system Integration, but tries to solve the high expansion cost problem with MCI. We introduce the basic concept of GMC, compare the performance of GMC with that of MCI using computer simulation.

To satisfy the requirements for QoS and acceptance ratio of the users using multimedia content service, it is required to control mechanism for QoS assurance and allocation of the stream server' resources based on CoS(Class of Service). To compare performance of the algorithm, we have classified the user by two classes (super class, base class) and control the acceptance ratio of user's requests by user's class information. We have experimented the test of network resources and test of processing time under server/client environment and agent environment. MA-URFA based on agent increases the acceptance ratio of super class and utilization ratio of network resources.

Database servers that are used to provide multimedia information services in World Wide Web(WWW) environment have to support the access control mechanism that allows authorized users to access the constructed databases. In this paper, we define an authorization model as well as authorization policies to enforce the proper access control on databases in the BADA-III object-oriented database server and propose an access evaluation algorithm. Also we implement this model and the algorithm in the BADA-III database server. Considering the service environment of the WWW, we expect that database service providers can simply and effectively protect their data using the proposed model.

In this paper, a centralized protocol model for videoconference service over a wide-area-network is presented. the model is comprised of three distinct components : clients, server and mixer. The server handles all can management functions, and the mixer performs realtime traffic mixing. The control and data are separated, flowing over separated connections in the model. A set of new protocols are defined : call management protocol, media transport protocol, and multimedia synchronization protocol. This paper also presents the functional design of the mixer.

This paper presents an adaptive rate control scheme for streaming-based content sharing service. This scheme delivers multimedia contents from a user device to another device or seamlessly redirects streaming service across heterogeneous user devices. In the proposed scheme, a streaming server adjusts video quality level according to the network and client status. Our scheme is different from other rate control schemes, because the video quality at the server is decided not only based on the available bandwidth, but also based on the device characteristics and bandwidth requirement at the access network. We also propose a bandwidth estimation method to achieve more equitable bandwidth allocations among streaming flows competing for the same narrow link with different Round Trip Times (RTTs). Through the simulation, we prove that our scheme improves the network stability and the quality of streaming service by appropriately adjusting the quality of the video stream. The simulation results also demonstrate the ability of the proposed scheme in ensuring RTT-fairness while remaining throughput efficient.
