Abstract
Recently, the ubiquitous network attracts a great deal of attention. The ubiquitous network is an environment from which all information instruments and computers are connected with the network anytime and anywhere. IPv6 (next generation Internet protocol) is core technique for achieving the ubiquitous network. The IPv6 network also brings an integrated environment to ubiquitous instruments, that is, all media information, not only control signal but also multimedia information can be sent thought the network. IPv6 network is expected to be a powerful tool for a remote control system. However, it is not evident how to implement actually the integrated environment to a remote control system. And also it is not clear how the characteristic of the Internet which is based on packet transfer system, affects the control. To examine these issues, we developed a system with which one can operate a remote barreling process machine using IPv6. This paper describes details of the function and an implementation of the system. We also describe the consideration of the evaluation experiment of this system.
