A Local and International Standardization Survey on LAN Technology

LAN 기술 국내외 표준화 동향

Software Engineering covers techniques, tools, and methodologies needed to develop, acquire, and manage software in high quality, using appropriate resources. Therefore it can be said that the administration target of software engineering activities is the pursuit of high productivity for production of software in good quality. To do this, they should establish the engineering principle based on engineering theory and concept, and form the effective environment of engineering technology through improving development methods/methodology and tools of software engineering. In addition several guidances related to information system planning, acquisition, development, management, maintenance, and evaluation, etc. must be invented on the basis of software engineering to encourage efficiency of public information business yearly increasing fastand to make sure compatibility and interoperability.

LAN(Local Area Network)은 10m부터 3km(fiber를 사용하는 경우, 80km까지 가능)까지의 근거리에 연결된 단말 및 통신 장치들을 1Mbps부터 100bps까지 다양한 범위의 전송 속도로 연결하는 통신망으로서, 현재 IEEE802에서 관련 표준화가 이루어지고 있으며 국내적으로는 유무선 통할에 대비하여 Access 장비에 대한 표준화를 진행할 예정에 있다.
