On the wireless sensor network MAC protocols, one of main issues is energy enciency. Since several asynchronous wireless sensor network MAC protocols with short preamble sampling scheme can be operated without setting the timing synchronization among neighbor nodes, it consumes a little energy for maintaining protocols. However, each node encounters either preamble or data overhearing problem, because each node wakes up in a different time and must check whether the frame is being sent to itself or not. To solve this overhearing problem, we newly propose B-MAC++ that can reduce the overhearing energy consumption by using short preambles with destination address and payload length. from simulation results, we show that the proposed B-MAC++ has advantageous in terms of power consumption efficiency over other asynchronous wireless sensor network MAC protocols.

Main design issues for MAC (Medium Access Control) protocol in underwater sensor networks are long propagation delay caused by the low speed of sound, difficult synchronization, and energy-limited node's life. We aimed to mitigate the problems of strict synchronization and channel inefficiency of TDMA and also the throughput degradation induced by unavoidable collisions in contention based MAC protocols. This proposed protocol improved not only the energy efficiency by adopting a sleep-mode, but also the throughput by reducing collisions and increasing channel efficiency.

Providing security has been always on priority in all areas of computing and communication, and for the systems that are low on computing power, implementing appropriate and efficient security mechanism has been a continuous challenge for the researchers. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system is such an environment, which requires the design and implementation of efficient security mechanism. Earlier, the security protocols for RFID based on hash functions and symmetric key cryptography have been proposed. But, due to high strength and requirement of less key size in elliptic curve cryptography, the focus of researchers has been on designing efficient security protocol for RFID based on elliptic curves. In this paper, an efficient elliptic curve signcryption based security protocol for RFID has been proposed, which provides mutual authentication, confidentiality, non-repudiation, integrity, availability, forward security, anonymity, and scalability. Moreover, the proposed protocol successfully provides resistance from replay attack, impersonation attack, location tracking attack, de-synchronization attack, denial of service attack, man-in-the-middle attack, cloning attack, and key-compromise attack. Results have revealed that the proposed protocol is efficient than the other related protocols as it takes less computational time and storage cost, especially for the tag, making it ideal to be used for RFID systems.

Recently, the explosive popularity of Internet gave birth to researches on Distributed Virtual Environments(DVE). They aim at providing a shared application data environment at realtime for users participating in the same application session across Internet. As more users join the session, and as more multimedia data are shared, because of network resource limitation, it is more difficult to maintain the quality of DVE, such as users' satisfaction level. Previous works mainly tried to solve the scalability, synchronization and data transport issues at the application level, with limited success. We suggest a new network centric solution, that consists of a novel network architecture and protocols upon which any large-scale DVE application can be easily developed. The performance of the proposed scheme, called GAIA, is verified by simulation.

In the context of wireless sensor networks, one of major issues is energy conservation. For low power communication, by utilizing our experimental results for the relation between clock drift and synchronization interval, we designed a new protocol which can support a wide range of duty cycles for applications with very low traffic rate and insensitive delay. The transmission (TX) node in the protocol synchronizes with the reception (RX) node very before transmitting a packet, and it can adaptively estimate the synchronization error size according to the synchronization interval from minutes to hours. We conducted simulations and a testbed implementation to show the efficacy of the proposed protocol. We found that our protocol substantially outperforms other state-of-the-art protocols, resulting in order-of-magnitude increase in network lifetime over a variety of duty cycles.

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.

작업들이 자원을 공유하는 경우 예측하기 어려운 지연시간이 발생한다. 다중 프로세서 시스템에서의 자원공유로 인한 지연시간은 더욱 예측하기 어렵다. 실기간 시스템의 스케줄 가능성 검사를 위해서는 이러한 지연시간을 정확히 예측해야한다. 선점가능한 우선순위 구동 CPU 스케줄링 알고리즘에 의해서 다른 우선순위의 작업과의 동기화는 우선순위 역전 문제를 야기한다. 본 논문에서는 다중 프로세서에서의 동기화 프로토콜을 제안하고 작업의 지연시간을 분석한다. 다른 프로세서에 할당된 작업들이 수행중인 자원을 요구할 때, 자원을 수행하는 작업의 우선순위를 높여줌으로써 자원수행을 빠르게 종료하게 한다. 이로 인해 자원에 의한 지연을 최소화한다. 특히, 높은 우선순위 작업의 경우 더욱 작은 지연시간을 갖게한다. 시뮬레이션을 통한 Shared Memory Protocol [5]과의 비교, 분석 결과 성능의 향상을 보임을 알 수 있다. 다양한 작업집합에 대한 지연시간을 분석하였다.

In resource-constrained, low-cost, radio-frequency identification (RFID) sensor-based mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), ensuring security without performance degradation is a major challenge. This paper introduces a novel combination of steps in lightweight protocol integration to provide a secure network for RFID sensor-based MANETs using error-correcting codes (ECCs). The proposed scheme chooses a quasi-cyclic ECC. Key pairs are generated using the ECC for establishing a secure message communication. Probability analysis shows that code-based identification; key generation; and authentication and trust management schemes protect the network from Sybil, eclipse, and de-synchronization attacks. A lightweight model for the proposed sequence of steps is designed and analyzed using an Alloy analyzer. Results show that selection processes with ten nodes and five subgroup controllers identify attacks in only a few milliseconds. Margrave policy analysis shows that there is no conflict among the roles of network members.

As the size and complexity of software systems increase, the design and specification of overall system structures become more significant issues than the choice of algorithms and data structures. Structural issues include the organization of a system as a composition of components; global control structures; protocols for communication synchronization, and data access etc. In this paper we show why the existing software architectural description method is not satisfied, and suggest the necessity of the new architectural description language md the requirements of the software architectural description language.

We have developed Ethernet based real-time communication systems called "Vnet/IP" for DCS which is the control system for process automation. This paper describes the features and the technologies of the ASIC which is utilized in the communication interface hardware for Vnet/IP. Vnet/IP has been developed for mission-critical communications. Hence it has real-time feature, high reliability and precise time synchronization capability. At the same time, it is able to deal with standard protocols without influence on mission-critical communications. The communication interface hardware has a host interface and dual redundant network interfaces. The host interface can be chosen PCI-bus or R-bus which is the proprietary internal bus developed for the high reliable redundant controller. Each network interface is a RJ45 connection with 1Gbps maximum in compliance with IEEE802.3.
