Several gateway-based congestion control mechanisms have been proposed to support an end-to-end congestion control mechanism of TCP (Transmission Control Protocol). One of promising gateway-based congestion control mechanisms is a RED (Random Early Detection) gateway. Although effectiveness of the RED gateway is fully dependent on a choice of control parameters, it has not been fully investigat...

While traditional vehicle network communication architecture is based on special short-range communication, it is difficult to meet the demand for quality of service of vehicle networking data transmission. The relevant data can be uploaded to the server through the mobile gateway, which can be transmitted to the target vehicle by the decision of the server, which can then extend the data broad...

In pervasive computing environments, information gateways derive specific information, such as a person’s location, from raw data provided by a service, such as a videostream offered by a camera. Here, access control to confidential raw data provided by a service becomes difficult when a client does not have access rights to this data. For example, a client might have access to a person’s locat...

Smart homes have attracted much attention due to the expanding of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and smart devices. In this paper, we propose a smart gateway platform for data collection and awareness in smart home networks. A smart gateway will replace the traditional network gateway to connect the home network and the Internet. A smart home network supports different types of smart devices, such as...

OBJECTIVE The authors investigated whether the transition from licit drug use to marijuana use is determined by particular risk factors, as specified by the gateway hypothesis. They also evaluated the accuracy of the "gateway sequence" (illicit drug use following licit drugs) for predicting a diagnosis of substance use disorder. METHOD Boys who consumed licit drugs only (N=99), boys who consu...

In this paper, we review several typical video transcoding architectures and major applications of video transcoding. We identify issues involved in access video streams through handheld devices and wireless networks. To handle these issues, we propose a video transcoding gateway system for intelligently transcoding pre-encoded video for different user devices and network connections. The main ...

To accomplish network layer integration of terrestrial and satellite IP networks, special exterior gateway protocols are needed. In this work, a new exterior gateway protocol called Border Gateway Protocol – Satellite version (BGP-S) is introduced that enables automated discovery of paths that go through the satellite network. This protocol is designed to work in only one terrestrial gateway in...

When Internet Key Exchange Protocol version 2 (IKEv2) is used for remote VPN access (client to VPN gateway), the gateway assigns the client an IP address from the internal network using IKEv2 configuration payloads. The configuration payloads specified in RFC 4306 work well for IPv4 but make it difficult to use certain features of IPv6. This document specifies new configuration attributes for I...

In recent years, the ZigBee network has been rapid develop in smart home. In order to solve the interconnection problem between the ZigBee network and the internet in the smart home, a wireless home gateway based on embedded is designed and implemented in this paper. The gateway is made up of the main controller S3C2440, the ZigBee module JN5148 and the Wi-Fi module VT6656. It is capable of con...

Although an autonomous mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is useful in many scenarios, a MANET connected to the Internet is more desirable. This interconnection is achieved by using gateways, which act as bridges between a MANET and the Internet. Before a mobile node can communicate with an Internet host it needs to find a route to a gateway. Thus, a gateway discovery mechanism is required. In this ...
