Adaptation of p-Cycle considering QoS Constraints in WDM Networks

Shin, Sang-Heon,Shin, Hae-Joon,Kim, Young-Tak Korean Institute of Information Scientists and Eng 2003 정보과학회논문지 : 정보통신 Vol.30 No.5

본 논문은 WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 망에서 서비스 품질에 따른 제약조건을 고려하였을 때 장애 복구에 적용될 수 있도록 개선된 p-cycle(preconfigured protection cycle) 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 p-cycle에서는 양방향으로 동일한 대역폭을 가지는 연결만을 고려하기 때문에 단방향 멀티캐스팅이나 양방향으로 서로 다른 대역폭을 사용하는 경우에는 적용하기 어려운 문제점이 있다. 또한 대체 경로의 서비스 품질은 고려하지 않으므로 장애 발생 시 대체 경로에서 서비스 품질을 만족시킬 수 없을 수 있다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 단방향 멀티캐스팅이나 양방향 비대칭 대역폭을 사용하는 광대역 멀티미디어 통신에서 사용되는 단방향 연결의 장애복구를 효율적으로 구현할 수 있도록 P-cycle 기법을 개선하였다. 또한 장애복구를 위한 대체 경로의 P-Cycle에서 서비스 품질을 보장할 수 있도록 하기 위해서 P-cycle 선정을 위한 새로운 절차를 제안한다. 단방향 연결 개념을 사용한 P-cycle을 적용함으로서 비대칭적인 대역폭을 사용하는 통신환경에서 장애 복구를 위해 요구되는 대역폭을 줄일 수 있었으며, 제안된 p-cycle 선정 절차에 의해 구성된 대체 경로가 서비스 품질을 보장할 수 있는지의 여부를 시험하기 위해서 미국 시험망에 적용하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. In this paper, we propose an enhanced p-cycle (preconfigured protection cycle) scheme for WDM mesh networks with QoS constraints. In the previous researches on p-cycle, it is assumed that user's connection has a hi-directional connectivity and the same bandwidth on both direction. Therefore it is difficult to apply p-cycle based link protection to uni-directional connections for multicasting or asymmetric broadband multimedia communications with hi-directional connectivity. And it didn't consider QoS of backup path. We enhanced the p-cycles to accomodate uni-directional connections for multicasting or asymmetric bandwidth communications with hi-directional connectivity. And we propose a selection procedure of p-cycle to assure QoS of backup path. We were able to reduce a required backup bandwidth by applying a uni-directional p-cycle concept to asymmetric broadband multimedia communication environment. The proposed p-cycle selection procedure is applied to the U.S. sample network to evaluate whether the configured p-cycles can support QoS constraint of working path and backup path.

A total of 15 rare plant species, including CR species of Abelia spathulata Siebold & Zucc., Tricularia yakusimensis Masam., Wikstroemia ganpi (Siebold & Zucc.) Maxim., EN species of Jeffersonia dubia (Maxim.) Benth. & Hook.f., Hololeion maximowiczii Kitam., Deutzia paniculata Nakai, VU species of Drosera rotundifolia L., Pogonia japonica Rchb.f., Euphorbia fauriei H.Lev. & Vaniot, LC species of Iris ensata var. spontanea (Makino) Nakai, Lysimachia coreana Nakai, Iris ensata var. spontanea (Makino) Nakai, Utricularia racemosa Wall. and DD species of Veronica pusanensis Y.Lee and Glaux maritima var. obtusifolia Fernald, were observed during the study conducted on the distribution of rare plant species in the Ulsan Busan Yangsan region. Of the 15 taxa, 3 were trees and 12 were herbs. 6 taxa (Tricularia yakusimensis Masam., Hololeion maximowiczii Kitam., Drosera rotundifolia L., Pogonia japonica Rchb.f., Iris ensata var. spontanea (Makino) Nakai, Utricularia racemosa Wall.) were those found in wetlands, 4 taxa (Wikstroemia ganpi (Siebold & Zucc.) Maxim., Jeffersonia dubia (Maxim.) Benth. & Hook.f., Lysimachia coreana Nakai, Iris ensata var. spontanea (Makino) Nakai) on mountain slopes, 3 taxa (Euphorbia fauriei H.Lev. & Vaniot, Veronica pusanensis Y.Lee, Glaux maritima var. obtusifolia Fernald) in the coastal region, and 2 taxa (Abelia spathulata Siebold & Zucc., Deutzia paniculata Nakai) in the valley area. In the case of rare plant species found in wetlands, there has been damage caused by coast elevation, forest road construction and farming, and in the case of other rare plant species, there has been damage caused by developments and other detrimental factors. Wikstroemia ganpi (Siebold & Zucc.) Maxim. and Veronica pusanensis Y.Lee are especially in need of protective measures, since their habitat is decreasing and they are being damaged via picking.
