The exploitation of locality of reference in shared memory NUMA multiprocessors is one of the improtant problems in parallel processing today. In this paper, we propose a revised hardeare reference counter to help operating system to manage locality. In contrast to the previous one, the value of counter can abe adjusted dynamically and periodically to adapt the page replication policy to the various memory reference patterns of processors. We use execution-driven simulation of real applications to evaluate the effectiveness of our adjustable DELAY counter. Our main conclusijon is that by using the adjustable DELAY counter the t normalized average memory access costs and the variance of them become smaller for most applications than the previous one and more robust memory management policies can be provided for the operating systems.

A counter gear transmits the rotation angle, so the angular velocity ratio of the gear does not necessarily need to be constant in the meshing process. As a pinion has a small number of teeth when combined with an internal gear for counters, tooth interference can occur with the use of an involute curve. This paper introduces circular arcs that represent a tooth profile and fillet for the profile design of a pinion through the combination of arcs with lines. The straight line of a rack tooth represents the profile of a mating internal gear. Thus, the circular arc and line maintain contact during the rotation of the counter gear. This paper presents an analysis of the meshing of the circular arc tooth and rack tooth along with the properties of the counter gear, such as the change in rotational velocity and amount of backlash. The contact ratio of the counter gear is 1 because the tooth contact occurs between circular arcs and line. The initial position of tooth contact, which denotes the simultaneous contact of two teeth, is found. As the rotation of the pinion, only one tooth keeps the contact situation. This meshing property is analyzed by the geometrical constraints of the tooth profile in contact and the results are presented as graphical diagrams in which tooth-arc movements are superimposed.

A digitally-controlled analog-block inevitably undergoes the bang-bang oscillations which may cause a big amplitudes of the glitches if the oscillation occurs at the MSB transition points of a binary counter. The glitch results into the jitter noise for the case of the DLL. In this paper, we devise a new counter code that has the hysteresis in the bit transitions in order to prevent the transitions of the significant counter-bits at the locking state. The maximum clock jitter is simulated to considerably reduce over the voltage-temperature range guaranteed by specifications. The counter is employed to implement the high speed packet-base DRAM and contributes to the maximized valid data-window.

The counter balancing is a technique to control a load which is acting to actuator when the load changes from a resistance state to over running state according to the structural change of the load for the case of lifting or carrying a heavy load in industrial site. Even though this technique is frequently used in industrial site, there is no widely known design procedure and educational equipment in home and abroad. Therefore, in this study a new idea was presented to develop an counter balancing educational equipment. The idea was realized through the process of system modeling and simulation, drawing out of design parameters, manufacturing of a prototype. Finally the usefulness of this developed educational equipment was demonstrated by experiments. It is expected that by using this equipment a big help would be given to students who should understand the counter balancing equipment which is frequently encountered in industrial site.

Experiments were done for the three dimensional unsteady flow in a counter-rotating axial flow fan under peak efficiency operating condition. Flow fields in a counter rotating axial flow fan were measured at cross-sectional planes of the upstream and downstream of each rotor. Cross sectional flow patterns were investigated through the acquired data by the 45$^{\circ}$ inclined hot-wire. Flow characteristics such as tip vortex, secondary flow and tip leakage flow were confirmed through axial, radial and tangential velocity vector plot. It has been found that the radial and tangential velocity components disappeared, while the axial velocity component highly increased as soon as the tip vortex was generated. It has been observed that secondary flow and turbulence intensity which were increased by the front rotor were dissipated passing through the rear rotor. As the result the energy loss of the counter rotating axial flow fan decreased at the downstream of rear rotor. Also, it has been verified that tip vortex pattern of the rear rotor was dampened because the tip vortex generated by front rotor was mixed with that of the rear rotor.

In the case of the general helicopter among rotorcraft, length of the rotor blade for thrust-generation is longer than that of fuselage and tail rotor is required in order to compensate moment of the fuselage. For those reasons, enough space for take-off and landing should be secured and an accessibility for building is low. Also, the accidents caused by tail rotor occur frequently. However, the case of counter-rotating has merits that tail rotor is unnecessary as well as length of the rotor blade can be shortened but has a weakness that the weight of body is increased. In the present study, aerodynamic force measurement on single rotor system equipped with NACA0012 airfoil, which has aspect ratio of 6 and chord length of 35.5 mm, was carried out. And measurement was conducted with blade which has a half size of the former blade by using single motor counter-rotating. Aerodynamic force measurement was acquired by using 6-component balances and coefficients of thrust and power were derived along the pitch angle varying from 0$^{\circ}$ to 90$^{\circ}$ with the increment of 10$^{\circ}$. Those aerodynamic force data will be utilized for the design and production of brand-new counter-rotating rotor blade system which has same thrust with single blade system and provides a good accessibility to building by reducing its blade length.

Extra-corporeal Life Support System (ECLS) is the device used in emergency cases to substitute a extracorporeal circulation in open heart surgery, cardiac arrest or in acute cardiopulmonary failure. To obtain the effect of counter-pulsation on hemodynamic response in the ECLS quantitatively, we developed cardiovascular model which consists of 12 compartment model of heldt et al. and 3 compartment model of Schreiner et al. based on windkessel approximation. We compared coronary perfusion, arterial pulse pressure, cardiac output, and left ventricular pressure-volume diagram according to flow configuration such as counter-pulsation, copulsation, and continous flow. When counter-pulsation was applied, 5% higher coronary perfusion, 26% lower pulse pressure, and 2% higher cardiac output than copulsation condition were calculated. We conclude that counter-pulsation configuration in the ECLS is hemodynamically more stable than copulsation and influences the positive effect to recover ventricles.

Experiments were done for the comparison of performance and flow characteristics between a two stage axial flow fan and a counter-rotating axial flow fm. The fan performance curves were obtained by the Korean Standard Testing Methods for Turbo Fans and Blowers (KS B 6311). The fan flow characteristics were measured using a five-hole probe by the non-nulling method. Each stage of the two stage axial flow fan used for the present study has an eight bladed rotor and thirteen stator blades. The front and the rear rotor of the counter-rotating axial flow fan have eight blades each and are driven by coaxial counter rotating shafts through a gear box located between the rear rotor and the electric motor. Both of the two axial fan configurations use identical rotor blades and the same operating conditions for the one-to-one comparison of the two. Performance characteristics of the two configurations were obtained and compared by varying the blade setting angles and axial gaps between the blade rows. The passage flow fields between the hub and tip of the fans were measured and analyzed for the particular operating conditions of peak efficiency, minimum and maximum pressure coefficients.

A serious problem of the 21st century is the supply of energy resources. Reserves of fossil fuels are facing depletion: renewable energy resources must be developed in this era. Dye sensitized solar cell (DSC) has been very economical and easy method to convert solar energy to electricity. Recently a novel tandem cell structure is proposed to improve photocurrent of DSC. To fabricated a tandem cell, the mesh structure of counter electrode is essential for the improvement in transmittance. In this study, we conducted the experiment to get the characteristic of DSC with mesh counter electrode. Under the standard test condition (AM 1.5, 100mW/$cm^2$), we obtained the maximum efficiency of 3.41% and the transmittance of 72% in the DSC with mesh counter electrode.

In this study, experimental investigations were conducted on NOx emission characteristics with fuel swirl flow in swirl combustor. Many types of vanes, which altered air and fuel swirl angles, were employed to verify the mixing processes. For strong air swirl, fuel counter-swirl resulted in relatively large turbulent intensity, high energy to the high frequency region and narrow width of high temperature region compared with co-swirl condition. These effects of fuel counter-swirl resulted in low NOx emission characteristics at strong air swirl condition. And NOx reduction mechanism was also discussed.
