The recent advance in wireless network technologies has enabled the streaming media service on the mobile devices such as PDAs and cellular phones. Since the wireless network has low bandwidth channels and mobile devices are actually composed of limited hardware specifications, the transcoding technology is needed to adapt streaming media to the given mobile devices. When large scale mobile clients demand the streaming service, load distribution Methods among transcoding servers highly impact on the total number of QoS streams. In this paper, the resource weighted load distribution Method is proposed for the fair load distribution and the more scalable performance in distributed transcoding servers. Our proposed Method is based on the weight of resources consumed for transcoding to classified client grades and the maximum number of QoS streams actually measured in transcoding servers. The proposed policy is implemented on distributed transcoding system. In experiments, we evaluate its fair load distribution and scalable performance according to the increase of transcoding servers.
The localization service which provides the location information of mobile user, is one of important service provided by sensor network. Many methods to obtain the location information of mobile user have been proposed. However, these methods were developed for only one mobile user so that it is hard to extend for multiple mobile users. If multiple mobile users start the localization process concurrently, there could be interference of beacon or ultrasound that each mobile user transmits. In the paper, we propose LME, the localization technique for multiple mobile nodes in mobile wireless sensor networks. In LME, collision of localization between sensor nodes is prevented by forcing the mobile node to get the permission of localization from anchor nodes. For this, we use CTS packet type for localization initiation by mobile node and RTS packet type for localization grant by anchor node. NTS packet type is uevento reject localization by anchor node for interference avoidance.nghe experimental result shows that the number of interference between nodes are increased in proportion to the number of mobile nodes and LME provides efficient localization.
