Abstract

Because a quantity wireless internet contents is much less than wired internet contents, it exist high necessities that wired internet contents should be converted into wireless internet contents. The conversion server implemented in this paper, automatically recognizes the type of user agents when they request, retrieves source documents on the web site specified by an URL, generates metaXML documents as an intermediate form, and converts them wireless markup documents appropriate for user agents. The conversion server interoperates with the image converter for image conversion and the clipper which is an authoring tool for clipping existing wired internet documents. We performed experiments about capability of the conversion server transcoding static/dynamic web pages specified by an URL. According to performance results on dynamic web pages, the conversion server showed better throughput when a thread pool in the terror maintains 5 threads compared with 1 and 10 threads.

현재 유선 인터넷 컨텐츠와 비교할 때 무선 인터넷 컨텐츠가 크게 부족하여 유선 컨텐츠들을 무선 인터넷 컨텐츠로 변환시키고자 하는 요구가 높다. 본 연구의 변환 서버는 사용자 단말기로부터 요청을 자동적으로 인식하여 대상 URL 서버상의 원본 문서를 검색하여 이들을 중간 언어인 metaXML 문서로 생성하고 이를 사용자 단말기에 적합한 무선 마크업 언어 문서로 변환 출판한다. 또한, 본 변환 서버는 이미지 변환을 위하여 이미지 변환기와 기존 웹 페이지들의 재구성 저작 도구인 Clipper와 연동하여 동작한다. 대상 URL의 정적/동적 웹 페이지를 처리하는 변환 서버의 처리 능력에 대하여 성능 실험을 수행하였으며, 동적 문서에 대한 변환 실험 결과에 따르면, 변환 서버내 스레드 풀의 스레드 개수를 5개로 유지할 때 변환 서버가 가장 나은 처리량을 나타내었다.
