We investigate the effect of the data skew of join attributes on the performance of a pipelined multi-way hash join method, and propose two new hash join methods with load balancing capabilities. The first proposed method allocates buckets statically by round-robin fashion, and the second one allocates buckets adaptively via a frequency distribution. Using hash-based joins, multiple joins can be pipelined so that the early results from a join, before the whole join is completed, are sent to the next join processing without staying on disks. Unless the pipelining execution of multiple hash joins includes some load balancing mechanisms, the skew effect can severely deteriorate system performance. In this paper, we derive an execution model of the pipeline segment and a cost model, and develop a simulator for the study. As shown by our simulation with a wide range of parameters, join selectivities and sizes of relations deteriorate the system performance as the degree of data skew is larger. But the proposed method using a large number of buckets and a tuning technique can offer substantial robustness against a wide range of skew conditions.

Subsea oil and gas exploration is increasingly moving into deeper water depths, and typically, subsea pipelines operate under high pressure and temperature conditions. Owing to the difference in these components, the axial force in the pipe is accumulated. When a pipeline is operated at a high internal pressure and temperature, it will attempt to expand and contract for differential temperature changes. Typically, the line is not free to move because of the plane strain constraints in the longitudinal direction and soil friction effects. For a positive differential temperature, it will be subjected to an axial compressive load, and when this load reaches a certain critical value, the pipe may experience vertical (upheaval buckling) or lateral (snaking buckling) movements that can jeopardize the structural integrity of the pipeline. In these circumstances, the pipeline behavior should be evaluated to ensure the pipeline structural integrity during operation in those demanding loading conditions. Performing this analysis, the correct mitigation measures for thermal buckling can be considered either by accepting bar buckling but preventing the development of excessive bending moment or by preventing any occurrence of bending.

We investigate the effect of the data skew of join attributes on the performance of a pipelined multi-way hash join method, and propose two new harsh join methods in the shared-nothing multiprocessor environment. The first proposed method allocates buckets statically by round-robin fashion, and the second one allocates buckets dynamically via a frequency distribution. Using harsh-based joins, multiple joins can be pipelined to that the early results from a join, before the whole join is completed, are sent to the next join processing without staying in disks. Shared nothing multiprocessor architecture is known to be more scalable to support very large databases. However, this hardware structure is very sensitive to the data skew. Unless the pipelining execution of multiple hash joins includes some dynamic load balancing mechanism, the skew effect can severely deteriorate the system performance. In this parer, we derive an execution model of the pipeline segment and a cost model, and develop a simulator for the study. As shown by our simulation with a wide range of parameters, join selectivities and sizes of relations deteriorate the system performance as the degree of data skew is larger. But the proposed method using a large number of buckets and a tuning technique can offer substantial robustness against a wide range of skew conditions.

The timings of all computational elements in the micropipeline circuits are important. The previous researches on path delay testing using scan methods make little account of the characteristic of the path delay tests that the second test pattern must be more controllable. In this paper, a new scan latch is proposed which is suitable to path delay testing of the micropipelines and has small area overhead. Results show that path delay faults in the micropipeline circuits using the new scan are testable robustly and the fault coverage is higher than the previous researches. In addition, the new scan latch for path delay faults testing in the micropipeline circuits can be easily expanded to the applications such as BIST for stuck-at faults.

본 논문에서는 명령어 수준의 병렬성을 다루는 세 가지 프로세서 모델을 정의하고 각 모델별로 명령어 파이프라인을 운용하는 방법에 다른 실행사이클의 변화를 연구하였다. 본 논문에서 고려한 세가지 모델은1) 긴 명령어 인출시 캐시미스가 발생하면 명령어 파이프라인이 정지되는 전통적인 VLIW 구조, 2) 전통적인 VLIW 구조와 같이 긴 명령어 인출시 캐시미스가 발생하면 명령어 파이프라인이 정지되나 실시간에 긴 명령어를 실행 유니트로 스케줄링할 수있으므로 목적 코드에서 LNOP를 제거할 수 있는 구조 및 3)2)의 구조에서 긴 명령어를 인출하는 과정에서 캐시미스가 발생하더라도 LNOP을 분석 유니트로 제공하여 명령어 파이프라인을 계속 진행시키는 구조의 세 가지이다. 연구결과, 세 번째 구조에서 발생되는 LNOP 의 수는 첫 번째 구조와 두 번째 구조에 비하여 적어서 동일한 응용 프로그램을 처리하는데 필요한 실행사이클의 수가 가장 짧았다. 여러 가지 벤치 마크들에 대한 모의 실험에서도 세 번째 구조가 다른 구조의 프로세서에 비하여 실행사이클의 수가 가장 짧음을 확인할 수 있었다.

In petrochemical complex, Hydrogen Network optimization is surveying the extra Hydrogen and needed Hydrogen of each company and calculating the optimized distribution. This paper compares the case of using the existing pipeline and the case of not using the existing pipeline to show the effect quantitatively and clearly by modeling the both cases and using mathematical programming. As a result, using the existing pipeline can save the pipe cost over 20% and increase the whole network benefit by thirteen billion won.

Generally, dividers have been designed to use iteration, but recently the research on the pipelined divider is underway. It is a difficult point in the known pipelined division unit that a large lookup table is required. In this paper, the cost-effective pipelined divider is proposed, that needs a lookup table smaller than that of the other pipelined divider. The latency of the proposed divider is 3 cycles. We obtain a 30% reduced area than that of P. Hung.

In this research, transformation-based optimization techniques for pipelined designs have been developed. The transformation-based optimization techniques include pipelined architecture transformations and retiming transformations. The new transformation method has the following three features. First, the overall performance of a pipelined system is optimized owing to various transformations including retiming of multiple pipelined blocks. Second, these techniques can be used to search a large solution space by allowing efficient exploration of trade-offs between area and performance. Third, these techniques can be easily extended to a new transformation or algorithm and can be used to optimize memory or bus architectures. Experimental results illustrate that these transformation-based optimization techniques improve area by 21% and performance by 17% on the average for a set of pipelined designs. Especially, the techniques are useful to efficiently explore a large design space.

This paper introduces an efficient CRC logic partitioning algorithm to design pipelined parallel CRC circuits aimed at improving speed performance. Focusing on the cases that the input data width is greater than the polynomial degree, equations are derived to divide the parallel CRC logic and decide the length of the pipeline stage. Through design experiments on different types of parallel CRC circuits, we have found a significant reduction in delay by adopting our approach.

Symmetric block ciper algorithm consists of a chains of operations such as permutation and substitution. There exists four kinds of operation mode, CBC, ECB, CFB, and OFB depending on the operation paradigm. Since the final ciper text is obtained through the many rounds of operations, it consumes much time. This paper proposes a pipelined design methodology which can improve the speed of crypto operations in ECB mode. Because the operations of the many rounds are concatenated in serial and executed concurrently, the overall computation time can be reduced significantly. The experimental result shows that the method can speed up the performance more than ten times.
