RSVP (Resource reSerVation Protocol) is the Internet standard protocol for supporting QoS (Quality of Service) requirements by reserving network resources between the sender and the receiver. Several problems, such as common path identification and resource pre-reservation, should be solved to apply RSVP in wireless mobile environments. To resolve these problems, this paper proposes DBRA (Dynamic Branch Router Approach) based on two designated entities, candidate access routers and a branch router. While several RSVP sessions between a branch router and candidate routers are managed, DBRA makes use of only one RSVP session between the sender and a branch router. Based on a network simulation, the proposed scheme has been compared with MRSVP (Mobile RSVP) and HMRSVP (Hierarchical MRSVP) in terms of the average packet transmission rate, bandwidth utilization and RSVP session failure rate.

We consider an MMPP/G/1/K finite queue with two-level threshold overload control. This model has frequently arisen in the design of the integrated communication systems which support a wide range applications having various Quality of Service(QoS) requirements. Through the supplementary variable method, se derive the queue length distribution.

During the last decade, the multitude of advances attained in terminal computers, along with the introduction of mobile hand-held devices, and the deployment of high speed networks have led to a recent surge of interest in Quality of Service (QoS) for video applications. The main difficulty is that mobile devices experience disparate channel conditions, which results in different rates and patterns of packet loss. One way of making more efficient use of network resources in video services over wireless channels with heterogeneous characteristics to heterogeneous types of mobile device is to use a scalable video coding (SVC). An SVC divides a video stream into a base layer and a single or multiple enhancement layers. We have to ensure that the base layer of the video stream is successfully received and decoded by the subscribers, because it provides the basis for the subsequent decoding of the enhancement layer(s). At the same time, a system should be designed so that the enhancement layer(s) can be successfully decoded by as many users as possible, so that the average QoS is as high as possible. To accommodate these characteristics, we propose an efficient transmission scheme which incorporates SVC-aware dual-channel repetition to improve the perceived quality of services. We repeat the base-layer data over two channels, with different characteristics, to exploit transmission diversity. On the other hand, those channels are utilized to increase the data rate of enhancement layer data. This arrangement reduces service disruption under poor channel conditions by protecting the data that is more important to video decoding. Simulations show that our scheme safeguards the important packets and improves perceived video quality at a mobile device.

최근 스마트폰, 태블릿등과 같은 모바일 인터넷 기기들이 폭증함에 따라 Bluetooth 또는 WiFi P2P와 같은 기존 단말 간 통신 기술에 비해 넓은 전송 범위와 높은 QoS (Quality of Service)를 보장할 수 있는, 새로운 근접 서비스 기반(Proximity-based service)의 단말 간 (Device-to-device: D2D) 통신 기술에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 D2D 기술을 이용한 서비스 및 해당 서비스를 위한 요구사항들과 이를 지원하기 위한 요소기술들, 그리고 IEEE와 3GPP에서 활발히 진행되고 있는 D2D 통신 기술의 표준화 동향을 살펴보고자 한다.

In the paper, we analyze the performances of random access channels in multi-service multi-user OFDMA systems. The resource of the random access channels in OFDMA systems is the nubmer of available sub-channels and PN-codes. For given available sub-channels and PN-codes. we analyze the performances of the random access channels of OFDMA systems according to three resource allocation methods (resource full sharing, resource partial sharing, resource partition) in tenus of the access success probability, the blocking probability, the access delay and the throughput of each service class. Further, we find the feasible region of the access probability of each service class in which the allowable minimum access success probability, the allowable maximum blocking probability and the allowable maximum access delay are satisfied. The results also can be utilized to find proper region of the access probabilities of each service class for differentiated quality of service(QoS)s, and for the system operations.

Since in web service composition, the same service may be offered by different providers with different Quality of Services (QoS) attributes, selection criteria are needed to select which Web Services will be considered for composition. Location of provider can be one of these criteria and intends to decrease the number of remote interactions between providers as well as reducing waiting time of service consumer. Therefore in this paper, we present technique for composing web services according to their location by semantically describing customer's goals and provider's web service capability by means of carefully designed ontology and logical expression.

A new online multi-layer integrated routing (MLIR) scheme that combines IP (electrical) layer routing with WDM (optical) layer routing is investigated. It is a highly efficient and cost-effective routing scheme viable for the next generation integrated optical Internet. A new simplified weighted graph model for the integrated optical Internet consisted of optical routers with multi-granularity optical-electrical hybrid switching capability is firstly proposed. Then, based on the proposed graph model, we develop an online integrated routing scheme called differentiated weighted fair algorithm (DWFA) employing adaptive admission control (routing) strategies with the motivation of service/bandwidth differentiation, which can jointly solve multi-layer routing problem by simply applying the minimal weighted path computation algorithm. The major objective of DWFA is fourfold: 1) Quality of service (QoS) routing for traffic requests with various priorities; 2) blocking fairness for traffic requests with various bandwidth granularities; 3) adaptive routing according to the policy parameters from service provider; 4) lower computational complexity. Simulation results show that DWFA performs better than traditional overlay routing schemes such as optical-first-routing (OFR) and electrical-first-routing (EFR), in terms of traffic blocking ratio, traffic blocking fairness, average traffic logical hop counts, and global network resource utilization. It has been proved that the DWFA is a simple, comprehensive, and practical scheme of integrated routing in optical Internet for service providers.

Today's market share of mobile internet service is growing rapidly in internet due to the rapid advances in wireless mobile networks. To guarantee for QoS of Mobile Nodes in wireless mobile networks, we propose the Proxy MRSVP (PMRSVP) which is efficient resource reservation protocol. The PMRSVP using a modified regional registration restrains excessive message generation from existing protocols that propose an alternative plan of existing best effort service in wireless mobile networks. We show that signaling message generation quantities and resource registration costs of the PMRSVP are lower than MRSVP and Hierarchical MRSVP (HMRSVP) because as Mobile Agent (MA) plays a proxy role instead of Corresponding Host (CH). We evaluate resource reservation cost with registration cost of intradomain and interdomain of the proposed method in the paper by comparing to that of the MRSVP and HMRSVP.

Mobile game apps, which are popular in various mobile devices, tend to be power-hungry and rapidly drain the device's battery. Since a long battery lifetime is a key design requirement of mobile devices, reducing the power consumption of mobile game apps has become an important research topic. In this paper, we investigate the power consumption characteristics of popular mobile games with multiple threads, focusing on the inter-thread. From our power measurement study of popular mobile game apps, we observed that some of these apps have abnormally high-load threads that barely affect the user's gaming experience, despite the high energy consumption. In order to reduce the wasted power from these abnormal threads, we propose a novel technique that detects such abnormal threads during run time and reduces their power consumption without degrading user experience. Our experimental results on an Android smartphone show that the proposed technique can reduce the energy consumption of mobile game apps by up to 58% without any negative impact on the user's gaming experience.
