Recently, NAND Flash memory structure is evolving from SDR (Single Data Rate) to high speed DDR(Double Data Rate) to fulfill the high performance requirement of SSD and SSS. Accordingly, the proper ways of transferring data that latches valid data stably and minimizing data skew between pins by using PHY(Physical layer) circuit techniques have became new issues. Also, rapid growth of speed in NAND flash increases the operating frequency and power consumption of NAND flash controller. Internal voltage variation margin of NAND flash controller will be narrowed through the smaller geometry and lower internal operating voltage below 1.5V. Therefore, the increase of power budge deviation limits the normal operation range of internal circuit. Affection of OCV(On Chip Variation) deteriorates the voltage variation problem and thus causes internal logic errors. In this case, it is too hard to debug, because it is not functional faults. In this paper, we propose new architecture that maintains the valid timing window in cost effective way under sudden power fluctuation cases. Simulation results show that the proposed technique minimizes the data skew by 379% with reduced area by 20% compared to using PHY circuits.

In this paper. a highly linear and low glitch CMOS current mode digital-to-analog converter (DAC) by self calibration bias circuit is proposed. The architecture of the DAC is based on a current steering 6＋4 segmented type and new switching scheme for the current cell matrix, which reduced non-linearity error and graded error. In order to achieve a high performance DAC . novel current cell with a low spurious deglitching circuit and a new inverse thermometer decoder are proposed. The prototype DAC was implemented in a 0.35${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ n-well CMOS technology. Experimental result show that SFDR is 60 ㏈ when sampling frequency is 32MHz and DAC output frequency is 7.92MHz. The DAC dissipates 46 mW at a 3.3 Volt single power supply and occupies a chip area of 1350${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ ${\times}$750${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

As high-performance quantum computers are expected to be developed, studies are being actively conducted to build a post-quantum security system that is safe from potential quantum computer attacks. When the Grover's algorithm, a representative quantum algorithm, is used to search for a secret key in a symmetric key cryptography, there may be a safety problem in that the security strength of the cipher is reduced to the square root. NIST presents the post-quantum security strength estimated based on the cost of the Grover's algorithm required for an attack of the cryptographic algorithm as a post-quantum security requirement for symmetric key cryptography. The estimated cost of Grover's algorithm for the attack of symmetric key cryptography is determined by the quantum circuit complexity of the corresponding encryption algorithm. In this paper, the quantum circuit of the SCHWAEMM algorithm, AEAD family of SPARKLE, which was a finalist in NIST's lightweight cryptography competition, is efficiently implemented, and the quantum cost to apply the Grover's algorithm is analyzed. At this time, the cost according to the CDKM ripple-carry adder and the unbounded Fan-Out adder is compared together. Finally, we evaluate the post-quantum security strength of the lightweight cryptography SPARKLE SCHWAEMM algorithm based on the analyzed cost and NIST's post-quantum security requirements. A quantum programming tool, ProjectQ, is used to implement the quantum circuit and analyze its cost.

There are many methods for improving TLB (translation lookaside buffer) performance, such as increasing the number of entry in TLB, supporting large page or multiple page sizes. The best way is to support multiple page sizes, but any operating system doesn't support multiple page sizes in user mode. So, we propose the new structure of TLB supporting two pages to obtain the effect of multiple page sizes with high performance and at low cost without operating system support. we propose a new TLB structure supporting two page sizes dynamically and selectively for high performance and low cost design without any operating system support. For high performance, a promotion-TLB is designed by supporting two page sizes. Also in order to attain low power consumption, a banked-TLB is constructed by dividing one fully associative TLB space into two sub-fully associative TLBs. These two banked-TLB structures are integrated into a banked-promotion TLB as a low power and high performance TLB structure for embedded processors. According to the results of comparison and analysis, a similar performance can be achieved by using fewer TLB entries and also power consumption can be reduced by around 50% comparing with the fully associative TLB.

Fast growth of multimedia applications requires new functions for video data processing. such as obj;cted-based video representation and manipulation. which are not supported by 11PEG-l and 11PEG-2. To support these requirements. 11PEG-4 video coding allows users to manipulate every video object easily by decomposing a scene into several video objects and coding each of them independently. However. the large amount of computations and flexible structure of 11PEG-4 video CODEC make it difficult to be implemented by either the general purpose DSP or a dedicated VLSI. In this paper, we propose a hardware architecture using a hybrid of a high performance programmable DSP and an application specific IC to implement a flexible 11PEG-4 video codec requiring the large amount of computations. The application specific IC has the functions of motion estimation and compensation.

A sensitive quantitative method for the determination of matrine alkaloids in human urine was developed based on hollow fiber liquid-phase microextraction (HF-LPME) combined with HPLC. The influence of the different factors on the HF-LPME efficiency including the pH and ion strength of the donar solution, the pH of the acceptor solution, stirring rate and extraction time were examined. The best HF-LPME conditions were as follows: 1-octanol impregnated in the pores of the hollow fiber, 100 mmol/L of $H_3PO_4$ at pH 1.50 as the acceptor solution injected into the lumen of the hollow fiber, 1 mol/L NaOH used to adjust the pH of the donor solution, stirring rate of 600 rpm and extraction time of 60 min. The LPME method was applied successfully to the analysis of matrine and sophocarpine in real urine samples.

All around the world, numerous scientists have been carried out researches of e-Science to improve performance of computations and accessibility of their experimental flexibilities for a long times. However, they still have been in difficulty securing high-performance computing facilities. In case of Aerodynamics, for example, a single experiment costs a tremendous amount of budget and requires a span of more than 6 months even though researchers have been developed diverse improved mathematical methods as well as relied on advanced computing technologies to reduce runtime and costs. In this paper, we proposed a multiple infrastructure-based scientific workflow environments for engineering education in fields of design optimization of aircraft and demonstrated the superiority. Since it offers diverse kind of computing resources, it can offer elastic resources regardless of the number of tasks for experiments and limitations of spaces. Also, it can improve education efficiency by using this environment to engineering education.

This paper is proposed new fuzzy controller for high performance of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM) drive. New fuzzy controller take out appropriate amounts of accumulated control input according to fuzzily described situations in addition to the incremental control input calculated by conventional direct fuzzy controller The structures of the proposed controller is motivated by the problems of direct fuzzy controller. The direct controller generally give inevitable overshoot when one tries to reduce rise time of response especially when a system of order higher than one is under consideration. The undesirable characteristics of the direct fuzzy controller are caused by integrating operation of the controller, even though the Integrator itself is introduced to overcome steady state error in response. Proposed controller fuzzily clear out integrated quantities acrording to situation. This paper attempts to provide a thorough comparative insight into the behavior of IPMSM drive with direct and new fuzzy speed controller. The validity of new fuzzy speed controller is confirmed by response results for IPMSM drive system.

In this work, caffeine and some catechin compounds such as +C, EGC and EGCG were extracted from green tea using quercetin molecular imprinted polymers in solid-phase extraction. For synthesis of MIP, quercetin as the templates, MAA as the monomer, EGDMA as the crosslinker and AIBN as the initiator were used. For extraction of caffeine and catechin compounds from green tea, the solid-phase extractions of a load followed by wash and elution procedures were done with water, methanol and methanol:acetic acid=90:10 (vol.%) as the solvents, respectively. HPLC analysis (C18 column, 5 μm, 250×4.6 mm) with the mobile phase of methanol:water=40:60 (vol.%) at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min was adopted for the quantitative determination. By solid-phase extraction, the resolutions of caffeine and some catechin compounds from green tea were increased. The quercetin-MIP had higher selectivity to +C compounds.
