  • NVMe(Non-Volatile Memory Express) SSD(Solid State Drive) is a high-performance storage that makes use of flash memory as a storage cell, PCIe as an interface and NVMe as a protocol on the interface. It supports multiple I/O queues which makes it feasible to process parallel-I/Os on multi-core environments and to provide higher bandwidth than SATA SSDs. Hence, NVMe SSD is considered as a next generation-storage for data-center and cloud computing system. However, in the virtualization system, the performance of NVMe SSD is not fully utilized due to the bottleneck of the software I/O stack. Especially, when it uses I/O stack of the hypervisor or the host operating system like Xen and KVM, I/O performance degrades seriously due to doubled-I/O stack between host and virtual machine. In this paper, we propose a new I/O engine, called Direct-AIO (Direct-Asynchronous I/O) engine, that can access NVMe SSD directly for I/O performance improvements on QEMU emulator. We develop our proposed I/O engine and analyze I/O performance differences between the existed I/O engine and Direct-AIO engine.

  • We present recent results of very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of gamma-ray bright active galactic nuclei (AGNs) using Korean VLBI Network (KVN) at 22, 43, 86, and 129~GHz bands, which are part of a KVN key science program; Interferometric Monitoring of Gamma-ray Bright AGNs (iMOGABA). We selected a total of 34 radio-loud AGNs of which 30 sources are gamma-ray bright AGNs, including 24 sources monitored by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope using the Large Area Telescope on board. The selected sources consist of 24 quasars, 7 BL Lacs, and 3 radio galaxies. In this talk, we summarize recent results of the iMOGABA, including results of single-epoch multi-frequency VLBI observations of the target sources, conducted during a 24-hr session on 2013 November 19 and 20. All observed sources were detected and imaged at all frequency bands with or without a frequency phase transfer technique which enabled to detect and image 12 faint sources at 129 GHz, except for 0218+357 which was detected for only one baseline at all frequency bands.

  • Most of the surface/interface analysis tools have limited depth profiling c capability in terms of the profiling range and the depth resolution. However, M MEIS can profile the surface and subsurface composition and structure q quantitatively and non-destructively with atomic layer depth resolution. I In this presentation, the MEIS system developed at KRISS will be briefly d described with an introduction on the principle of MEIS. Recent MEIS r results on the surface and interface composition and structural change due to i ion bombardment will be presented for preferential sputtering of T:없Os and d damage depth profiles of SHooD, Pt(l11), and Cu(l1D due to Ar+ ion b bombardment. Direct observation of strained Si lattices and its distribution i in the SHool)-SiCh interface and the initial stage of Co growth on Pt(l11) w will be reported. H surfactant effects on epitaxial growth of Ge on Si(ooD w will be discussed with STM results from SND.

  • In order to transmute long-lived radioactive nuclides such as transuranics(TRU), Tc-99, and I- l29 in LWR spent fuel, a preliminary conceptual design study has been performed for the accelerator driven subcritical reactor system, called HYPER(Hybrid Power Extraction Reactor) The core has a hybrid neutron energy spectrum: fast and thermal neutrons for the transmutation of TRU and fission products, respectively. TRU is loaded into the HYPER core as a TRU-Zr metal form because a metal type fuel has very good compatibility with the pyre- chemical process which retains the self-protection of transuranics at all times. On the other hand, Tc-99 and I-129 are loaded as pure technetium metal and sodium iodide, respectively. Pb-Bi is chosen as a primary coolant because Pb-Bi can be a good spallation target and produce a very hard neutron energy spectrum. As a result, the HYPER system does not have any independent spallation target system. 9Cr-2WVTa is used as a window material because an advanced ferritic/martensitic steel is known to have a good performance under a highly corrosive and radiation environment. The support ratios of the HYPER system are about 4∼5 for TRU, Tc-99, and I-129. Therefore, a radiologically clean nuclear power, i.e. zero net production of TRU, Tc-99 and I-129 can be achieved by combining 4 ∼5 LWRs with one HYPER system. In addition, the HYPER system, having good proliferation resistance and high nuclear waste transmutation capability, is believed to provide a breakthrough to the spent fuel problems the nuclear industry is faced with.

  • A series of 2-phenyl-5-nitrobenzimidazoles substituted at the para positon of the 2-phenyl moiety was synthesized & evaluated for their activity to inhibit topoisomerase I. The structure-activity relationship study revealed that neither the electronic nor lipophilic parameters were related to the topoisomerase I inhibition. A strict spatial requirement seems to be present for retention of topoisomerase I inhibition activity.
