Recently, use of Smartphones is growing at an extremely rapid pace. Many researchers have recognized the importance of developing Smartphones applications under these circumstances, and they have been conducted many studies to develop apps efficiently. The Smartphones middleware has become a focus of recent research to develop efficient Smartphones apps on a server-client environment in particular. In this study, for enhancing portability, expandability and convenience in the development of apps on the various platforms of Smartphones, We have proposed XML based Open API optimized in the Smartphones middleware. We also evaluated the performance, by applying it in Smartphone middleware environment.

This paper proposes a mechanism for managing overload Introduced by excessive web requests in real-time web service system. The many previous mechanisms statically manage the overload and thus the dynamic characteristics are not reflected. This paper proposes a mechanism that models system load based on control theory approach and includes its dynamic characteristics. We design a controller that is able to meet performance requirement. A feedback control system is implemented applying the proposed mechanism and the stable operation of system is verified through various simulation environments.

본 논문에서는 웹 서버의 부하가 급증하면서 대두된 네트워크 과부하를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 서버분산처리 방식과 RTO(retransmission time out : 재전송타임아웃)간을 조정하는 기법을 이용하였다. 부하 분산을 위한 방법으로는 기존의 NAT 기반의 가상서버 방식과 비슷하나, 기존의 가상서버에서 서버들을 선택하는 스케줄링 방법을 이용하지 않고 네트워크 주소(IP)룰 통한 서버 분산방법을 선택하였다. 이를 위해 Linux 기반의 PC에 라우터론 구축하였고 여기에 실제 IP를 할당하였으며, 라우터를 경유하여 연결된 두개의 서버에는 가상 IP를 할당 내부접속용과 외부접속용으로 나누어 서버 분산이 이루어지게끔 하였다. 이러한 서버 분산은 학교라는 즉. 웹서버의 접속이 내부접속 비율과 외부접속 비율 어느 한쪽으로도 크게 기울지 않는 네트워크 환경을 고려한 것이다. 네트워크의 성능 평가에 있어 가장 기본이 될 수 있는 응답시간은 전송거리와 트래픽량에 비례한다. 이에 외부접속용 서버와 내부접속용 서버 각각에 RTO 값을 다르게 적용시킴으로써 전체적인 Delay의 변화를 확인해 볼 수 있다. 이는 전송거리가 길 경우 생길 수 있는 패킷 손실을 고려한 것으로 패킷 손실로 인하여 재전송이 이루어질 경우 재전송 time이 RTO를 통하여 이루어지며 이러한 RTO의 적절한 값은 전체적인 응답시간에 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것에 기인한 것으로 RTO값을 전송거리가 긴 외부접속용 서버에는 전송거리가 짧은 내부접속용 서버에 비해 길게 적응시킴으로써 전체적인 응답시간의 개선을 유도하였다

Searchable symmetric encryption (SSE) scheme can perform search on encrypted data directly without revealing the plain data and keywords. At present, many constructive SSE schemes were proposed. However, they cannot really resist the malicious adversary, because it (i.e., the cloud server) may delete some important data. As a result, it is very likely that the returned search results are incorrect. In order to better guarantee the integrity of outsourcing data, and ensure the correction of returned search results at the same time, in this paper, we combine SSE with blockchain (BC), and propose a SSE-on-BC framework model. We then construct two concrete schemes based on the size of the data, which can better provide privacy protection and integrity verification for data. Lastly, we present their security and performance analyses, which show that they are secure and feasible.

Parallel computing system components should be harmonized, and this harmonization is kept existent using synchronization time. Synchronization time affects the system in two ways. First, if we have too little synchronization time, some tasks face the problem of harmonization, as they need appropriate time to update and synchronize with the system. Second, if we allocate a large amount of time, stall system created. Random allocation of synchronization time for parallel systems slows down not only the booting time of the system but also the execution time of each application involved in the system. This paper presents a simulator used to test and allocate appropriate synchronization time for distributed and parallel heterogeneous systems. The simulator creates the parallel and heterogeneous system to be evaluated, and lets the user vary the synchronization time to optimize the booting time. NS3-cGEM5 simulator in this paper is formed by HLA-RTI federation integration of the two independent architecture and network simulators - NS3 and cGEM5. Therefore, nodes created on these simulators need synchronizations for harmonized system performance. We tested and allocated the appropriate synchronization time for our sample parallel system composed of one x86 server and three ARM clients.

In this paper, we propose the enhanced network-based mobility management protocol, called enhanced proxy mobile ipv6 (E-PMIPv6), which can provide mobile nodes (MNs) with a fast and efficient mobility service in PMIPv6 domain. The proposed scheme can provide a fast and efficient mobility service to MNs and also the strength of network scalability and stability to an access network by proposing the dynamic virtual hierarchical network architecture. In addition, the pre-authentication procedure for an MN, based on the information of neighbor mobile access gateway (MAG) list in the enhanced-policy server (E-PS), is proposed to support seamless handover by reducing MN's handover latency. Through performance evaluations of numerical analyses and simulations, we have confirmed and verified the superiority of the proposed scheme compared to the conventional proxy mobile ipv6 (PMIPv6).

In this paper, the RFID-based ad-hoc network is presented for the efficient yard management of the container terminal. The loading and unloading work is performed through the ad-hoc communication between YT and GC, YT and TC within the yard without the control of the central server. That makes the efficient operation of the yard with real task correspondence. Using the location information of the RFID tag, we have proposed the routing protocol which is suitable for the yard environment of the container terminal. The performance evaluation has been carried out through the network simulator and gained an effective results.

Many people interested in indoor air quality monitoring since they spend a majority of their time indoors such as homes and offices. This paper proposes the effective indoor air quality monitoring system and it can gauge carbon dioxide, particulate matter and VOCs(Volatile Organic Compounds) which can be harmful to humans. The proposed system is composed of three main modules which are device, web server, and mobile application. In order to evaluate the performance, we tested two cases which are candle and smoke. We monitor the condition of indoor air quality with our mobile application. Also, we developed the information graphics to compare the condition of air quality between indoor and outdoor and this mobile application improves usability.

The last decade has seen a rapid growth in the use of mobile devices all over the world. With an increasing use of mobile devices, mobile applications are becoming more diverse and complex, demanding more computational resources. However, mobile devices are typically resource-limited (i.e., a slower-speed CPU, a smaller memory) due to a variety of reasons. Mobile users will be capable of running applications with heavy computation if they can offload some of their computations to other places, such as a desktop or server machines. However, mobile users are typically subject to dynamically changing network environments, particularly, due to user mobility. This makes it hard to choose good offloading decisions in mobile environments. In general, users' mobility can provide some hints for upcoming changes to network environments. Motivated by this, we propose a mobility model of each individual user taking advantage of the regularity of his/her mobility pattern, and develop an offloading decision-making technique based on the mobility model. We evaluate our technique through trace-based simulation with real log data traces from 14 Android users. Our evaluation results show that the proposed technique can help boost the performance of mobile devices in terms of response time and energy consumption, when users are highly mobile.

One of the potential advantages of computer-based instruction is individualization of instruction. However, this goal has not been fully realized in practice, due largely to limitations of natural language understanding and to combinatorial explosion. It is nonetheless possible to develop CAT(Computer- based Adaptive Testing) Programs which can adapt to students, depending on their performance, by adjusting the length of computer-based tests. The number of questions can be significantly reduced for many individuals, while mastery and nonmastery decisions remain highly accurate. In this paper, We design and implement a Diagnosis System using SPRT(Sequential Probability Ratio Testing). This system supports multimedia object, client/server environment, indvidual feedback, multi-SPRT and maintain student model for individualization of instruction. besides, this system measures coefficient alpha of each problem.
