The general bus system architecture consists of masters, slaves, arbiter, decoder and so on in shared bus. As several masters can't use a bus concurrently, arbiter plays an role in bus arbitration. In compliance with the selection of arbitration method, The efficiency of bus usage can be determined. Fixed Priority, Round-Robin, TDMA, Lottery arbitration are studied in conventional arbitration method. In this paper, we draw the performance analysis of Fixed Priority, Round Robin, TDMA and Lottery bus arbitration policies due to the data traffic concentration and propose the methods of performance improvement.

The conventional bus system architecture consists of masters, slaves, arbiter, decoder and so on in shared bus. As several masters can't use a bus concurrently, arbiter plays an role in arbitrating the bus. The efficiency of bus usage can be determined by the selection of arbitration method. Fixed Priority, Round-Robin, TDMA and Lottery arbitration policies are studied in the conventional arbitration method where the bus transaction cycle, the wait cycle and the priority are primarily considered. In this paper, we propose the arbitration method that considers the wait cycle. Furthermore, we verify the bus transaction cycle and the wait cycle compared with the other arbitration methods through TLM(Transaction Level Model).

In the System on a Chip design, the on chip bus is one of the critical factors that decides the overall system performance. Especially, in the case or reusing the IPs such as processors, DSPs and multimedia IPs that requires higher bandwidth, the bandwidth problems of on chip bus are getting more serious. Recently ARM proposes the Multi-Layer AHB BusMatrix that is a highly efficient on chip bus to solve the bandwidth problems. The Multi-Layer AHB BusMatrix allows parallel access paths between multiple masters and slaves in a system. This is achieved by using a more complex interconnection matrix and gives the benefit of increased overall bus bandwidth, and a more flexible system architecture. However, there is one clock cycle delay for each master in existing Multi-Layer AHB BusMatrix whenever the master starts new transactions or changes the slave layers because of the Input Stage and arbitration logic realized with Moore type. In this paper, we improved the existing Multi-Layer AHB BusMatrix architecture to solve the one clock cycle delay problems and to reduce the area overhead of the Input Stage. With the elimination of the Input Stage and some restrictions on the arbitration scheme, we tan take away the one clock cycle delay and reduce the area overhead. Experimental results show that the end time of total bus transaction and the average latency time of improved Multi-Layer AHB BusMatrix are improved by $20\%\;and\;24\%$ respectively. in ease of executing a number of transactions by 4-beat incrementing burst type. Besides the total area and the clock period are reduced by $22\%\;and\;29\%$ respectively, compared with existing Multi-layer AHB BusMatrix.

Recently, there have been active researches about the VPCS (Virtual Parallel Computing System) based on multiple agents. The PVCS uses personal computers or workstations that are dispersed all over the internet, rather than a high-cost supercomputer, to solve complex problems that require a huge number of calculations. It can be made up with either homogeneous or heterogeneous computers, depending on resources available on the internet. In this paper, we propose a new method in order to distribute worker agents and work packages efficiently on the VPCS based on the IBM Aglets. The previous methods use mainly the master-slave pattern for distributing worker agents and work packages. However, in these methods the workload increases dramatically at the central master as the number of agents increases. As a solution to this problem, our method appoints worker agents to distribute worker agents and workload packages. The proposed method is evaluated in several ways on the VPCS, and its results are improved to be worthy of close attention as compared with the previous ones.

Recently, developing medical devices have a tendency becoming the module for satisfying user's mutual complex needs. Because the most effective method for the observation of patients condition a diagnosis and a treatment is collecting data from various devices and controling operation following it. Module tendency is more popular due to manage easily totally many individual systems. This study implemented communication protocol to control by one control system connecting modular medical devices. Implemented system consist of one master module controlling all module and managing communication and many Slave modules. Communication between each modules introduced SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface) among many synchronous serial communication methods for the exact transmission and receipt of data. All communication executes by packet format. This can detect error. And, this protocol introduced PNP(Plug And Play) function that auto-detect connecting or removing module during running. This protocol exactly transmitted and received in faster speed more than 1Mbps. And in practical application to the ventilator this confirmed to give and take real-time data. And various functions by th central control system is implemented in this protocol.

가스 배관 진단 시스템은 배관 내부에 삽입되어 배관 내에 주입된 가스에 의해 추진되는 시스템으로 배관의 건설, 유지, 보수, 해체 등의 작업을 위한 여러 정보를 수집한다. 배관 진단을 위한 대표적인 센서로는 배관 내부의 찌그러짐(dent)과 주름(wrinkle)의 형태 및 크기를 측정하는 캘리퍼(caliper) 센서와 배관 외부의 파손을 측정하는 MFL(Magnetic Flus Leakage) 센서 그리고 배관 내의 환경 정보를 측정하기 위한 온도 센서와 압력 센서가 있다. 이러한 센서들로 수집된 정보를 활용하기 위해서는 정확한 위치 정보가 필요하므로 IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit)와 주행 거리계를 사용하는 결합 항법 시스템도 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 가스 배관 진단 시스템을 위한 항법 데이터 저장 시스템을 개발한다. 배관 진단 시스템의 특성상 일반적인 측정 센서는 700Hz 이상의 주기로 측정되고 항법 정보는 100Hz 주기 이상으로 측정되며 배관 내 이동 시간은 2시간에서 24시간 이상으로 다양하므로 많은 데이터를 효율적으로 저장할 수 있어야 한다. 따라서 데이터 저장 장치로는 DAT를 사용하게 되며 많은 센서 데이터를 실시간으로 저장하기 위해서 마스터-슬레이브 구조를 갖는 멀티 프로세서 구성을 이용한 항법 데이터 저장 시스템을 설계 제작하였다.

Recently, higher and bigger building is trend of the construction. Accordingly the building material is getting bigger and construction equipments are developed. But operation is still depends on human resource. Therefore there have several problems that are safety, laborious operation, and shortage of worker. In the various construction sites, the automation in construction is introduced to solve these problems. This paper proposed the automation system in construction that installs curtain wall in a high building. The system is expected effects that are reduction of a construction period, retrenchment of the cost and assurance of safety.
