博士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊管理研究所 === 92 === The home automation network (HAN) has become an important research topic for the past few years. Standards and technologies of HAN have been proposed and frequently discussed in both academic and industrial circles. In this thesis, a distributed home automation network architecture is proposed. This architecture consists of three components：residential gateway, room manager, and managed information appliance. Issues and solutions based on this HAN architecture, including remote operation and management, network address translation (NAT), and quality of service (QoS), are discussed. To remotely operate and manage an information appliance on HAN, intelligent agents are used to carry out operation and management functions. As to the management aspect of HAN, the simple network management protocol of the Internet is adopted. As for NAT on HAN, a modified version of Realm Specific IP, called Realm Specific IP for HAN (RSIPH) is proposed. As for QoS, we propose a behavior-oriented service classification for IA and suggest a novel buffer management scheme, called the class-based queuing priority buffer management for HAN (CPBMH), to enforce QoSs on HAN.
