액세스그리드 프레임워크(AccessGrid Framework)는 지리적인 제한에 관계없이 가상적인 협업 환경을 제공하는 도구이다. 액세스그리드 프레임워크는 기존의 시스템이 갖추지 못한 사용자의 이동성 지원을 추가하고, 유비쿼터스 환경에 적절한 자동화 기능을 제공함으로써 액세스그리드 환경을 확장한다. 이들은 웹 서비스 기반의 기존 구현물인 액세스그리드 툴킷(AccessGrid Toolkit)을 적극적으로 활용하여 개발되었으며, 향후에 불안정한 종속성을 제거하여 개수될 예정이다.

The past several years have witnessed an ever-increasing acceptance and adoption of parallel processing, both for high performance scientific computing as well as for more general purpose applications. Furthermore with increasing needs to perform the complex flow calculations in an efficient manner, the use of the message passing model on distributed networks has emerged as an important alternative to the expensive supercomputers. This work attempts to provide a generic framework to enable the parallelization of all CFD-related works using the master-slave model. This framework consists of (1) input geometry, (2) domain decomposition, (3) grid generation, (4) flow computations, (5) flow visualization, and (6) output display as the sequential components, but performs computations for (2) to (5) in parallel on the workstation clustering. The flow computations are parallized by having multiple copies of the flow-code to solve a PDE on different spatial regions on different processors, while their flow data are exchanged across the region boundaries, and the solution is time-stepped. The Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) is used for distributed communication in this work.

Parallel and distributed simulation is concerned with the efficient execution of large-scale discrete event simulation models on multiprocessors and distributed platforms. After the development of WWW, many efforts in the parallel and distributed simulation have been made for modeling, particularly building simulation languages and creating model libraries that can be assembled and executed over WWW. However, web-based parallel and distributed simulation is restricted by heterogeneous computing environments. Recently, the advent of XML and web services technology has made these efforts enter upon a new phase. Especially, the web services as a distributed information technology have demonstrated powerful capabilities for scalable interoperation of heterogeneous systems. This paper aims to develop and evaluate the parallel and distributed simulation using the web services technology. In particular, a prototype multi-pass simulation framework is implemented using Java-based web services technology. It focuses on the efficiency of multi-pass simulation used for optimization through the distribution of simulation replication to several simulation service providers. The development of parallel and distributed simulation using web services will help solve efficiently large-scale problems and also guarantee interoperability among heterogeneous networked systems.

Recently, the Internet-based distributed/parallel computing using many of idle hosts has been demonstrated its usefulness for processings of a large-scale task and involving several important issues. While executing a large-scale task, the realtime monitoring is required for adaptive strategy of the performance and state change of host. This paper provides the realtime monitoring and visualization on global computing infrastructure called PDP(Parallel Distributed Processing) which is a parallel computing framework implemented with Jana for parallel computing on the Internet.

The Active Appearance Model (AAM) is a class of deformable models, which, in the segmentation process, integrates the priori knowledge on the shape and the texture and deformation of the structures studied. This model in its sequential form is computationally intensive and operates on large data sets. This paper presents another framework to implement the standard version of the AAM model. We suggest a distributed and parallel approach justified by the characteristics of the model and their potentialities. We introduce a schema for the representation of the overall model and we study of operations that can be parallelized. This approach is intended to exploit the benefits build in the area of advanced image processing.

Indexing allows converting raw document collection into easily searchable representation. Web searching by Google or Yahoo provides subsecond response time which is made possible by efficient indexing of web-pages over the entire Web. Indexing process gets challenging when the scale gets bigger. Parallel techniques, such as MapReduce framework can assist in efficient large-scale indexing process. In this paper we propose PDFindexer, system for indexing scientific papers in PDF using MapReduce programming model. Unlike Web search engines, our target domain is scientific papers, which has pre-defined structure, such as title, abstract, sections, references. Our proposed system enables parsing scientific papers in PDF recreating their structure and performing efficient distributed indexing with MapReduce framework in a cluster of nodes. We provide the overview of the system, their components and interactions among them. We discuss some issues related with the design of the system and usage of MapReduce in parsing and indexing of large document collection.

본 논문은 확장성(scalability)과 견고함(robustness)을 강조하는 새로운 형태의 병렬 분산 메타-휴리스틱 프레임워크를 제안하고 있다. PADO (Parallel And Distributed Optimization framework) 라고 이름 지어진 본 프레임워크는 이종의 계산 및 통신 자원들을 활용하여 메타-휴리스틱 알고리즘을 병렬화하고 스케일러블한 속도 향상을 얻을 수 있다. 본 프레임워크는 기존의 시퀀셜(sequential) 최적화 프레임워크에 메타-휴리스틱 알고리즘의 병렬화 기법중 하나인 island 모델을 개선하여 구현하였다. 본 연구는 부분적으로 정렬된 지식 공유 방법(Partially Ordered Knowledge Sharing) 모델을 이용하여 병렬 환경 코디네이션(coordination) 오버헤드를 줄였고 계산 노드에 대한 확장성을 얻었다. 본 프레임워크를 통해 기존의 많은 메타-휴리스틱 알고리즘들을 재사용 할 수 있고 다양한 분야의 최적화 문제에 적용 할 수 있으며 계산량이 많은 메타-휴리스틱 알고리즘을 병렬화를 통해 문제를 푸는 시간을 단축 할 수 있다. 순회 판매원 문제(Traveling Salesman Problem)를 통해 프레임워크의 실효성을 검증하였다.

This paper presents a new Internet-based computational framework for the realistic simulation of multi-scale response of structural systems. Two levels of parallel processing are involved in this frame work: multiple local distributed computing environments connected by the Internet to form a cluster-to-cluster distributed computing environment. To utilize such a computing environment for a realistic simulation, the simulation task of a structural system has been separated into a simulation of a simplified global model in association with several detailed component models using various scales. These related multi-scale simulation tasks are distributed amongst clusters and connected to form a multi-level hierarchy. The Internet is used to coordinate geographically distributed simulation tasks. This paper also presents the development of a software framework that can support the multi-level hierarchical simulation approach, in a cluster-to-cluster distributed computing environment. The architectural design of the program also allows the integration of several multi-scale models to be clients and servers under a single platform. Such integration can combine geographically distributed computing resources to produce realistic simulations of structural systems.

To meet the scalability and performance requirements of data analyses, which often involve voluminous data, efficient parallel or concurrent algorithms and frameworks are essential. We present a high-performance Korean morphological analyzer which employs the MapReduce framework on the graphics processing unit (GPU). MapReduce is a programming framework introduced by Google to aid the development of web search applications on a large number of central processing units (CPUs). GPUs are designed as a special-purpose co-processor. Their programming interfaces are typically formulated for graphics applications. Compared to CPUs, GPUs have greater computation power and memory bandwidth; however, GPUs are more difficult to program because of the design of their architectures. The performance of the Korean morphological analyzer using the MapReduce framework on the GPU is evaluated in comparison with the CPU-based model. The proposed Korean Morphological analyzer shows promising scalable performance on distributed computing with the GPU.
