  • Volunteer computing is a computing paradigm in which the operations of a large-scale application are processed using idle resources of Internet-connected computers. The redundant-work distribution techniques used in the volunteer computing environment cause some problems like delay of the work completion time or inefficiency of the work execution due to continuous requests of the work redistribution because the techniques do not consider the characteristics of works and dynamic resources. To cope with such problems this paper suggests a P2P based regional matchmaking technique which can redistribute works in consideration of the characteristics of the works and the participant resources. The techniques consist of the profiles for works/resources, the module for monitoring the available resources spaces, the protocols for the matching request/reply, the module for match-ratio calculation, and so on.

  • The banking system provides a number of important functions for the economy and is also the lifeblood and financier of the economy in each country. Large amounts of idle money have not been exploited by banks; however, banks still depend on loans, including loans from foreign banks, to meet the growing demand, as such, for banks, the cost of capital is high, the stability and business efficiency are low and banks have not promoted their internal resources to grow steadily. To achieve the goal, this research analyzes the factors affecting the choice of bank for the deposit decisions of customers in Vietnam. The study used a sample data of 250 individuals and SPSS software was used to analyze the data. The results showed that customer policy has a positive effect on customers' deposit decisions in a bank, and this is new evidence regarding behavioral theory in the case of Vietnam. Results further demonstrated that other factors such as employee image, brand, interest rate, relative influencing, and transaction time positively impact the choice of bank for the deposit decisions of customers. However, the bank's promotion strategies had no impact on the choice of bank for the deposit decisions of customers. Besides, employee image is the most influential factor in the deposit decisions, followed by the bank's brand and interest rate.

  • Exponentiation is widely used in practical applications related with cryptography, and as the discrete log is easily solved in case of a low exponent n, a large exponent n is needed for a more secure system. However. since the time complexity for exponentiation algorithm increases in proportion to the n figure, the development of an exponentiation algorithm that can quickly process the results is becoming a crucial problem. In this paper, we propose a parallel exponentiation algorithm which can reduce the number of rounds with a fixed number of processors, where the field elements are in GF($2^m$), and also analyzed the round bound of the proposed algorithm. The proposed method uses window method which divides the exponent in a particular bit length and make idle processors in window value computation phase to multiply some terms of windows where the values are already computed. By this way. the proposed method has improved round bound.

  • The intelligent production plant called smart factories that apply information and communication technology (ICT) are collecting data in real time through various sensors. Recently, researches that effectively applying to these collected data have gained a lot of attention. This paper proposes a method for the tool condition monitoring based on the sound signal generated in machining process. First, it not only detects a fault tool, but also presents various tool states according to idle and active operation. The second, it's to represent the power spectrum of the sounds as images and apply some transformations on them in order to reveal, expose, and emphasize the health patterns that are hidden inside them. Finally, the contrast-enhanced PSD image obtained is diagnosed by using CNN. The results of the experiments demonstrate the high discrimination potential afforded by the proposed sound PSD image + CNN and show high diagnostic results according to the tool status.

  • Software-Defined Networking (SDN), which has emerged to overcome the limitations of existing network architectures, makes routing management simpler and more efficient through a central controller. SR (Segment Routing) is a flexible and scalable way of doing source routing, and defines the information path of the network through a list of segments arranged in the packet header. In an SDN environment, the performance of each router is almost the same, but packets tend to be concentrated on routes that are frequently used depending on routing algorithms. Routers in that path have a relatively high frequency of failure and are more likely to become bottlenecks. In this paper, we propose a routing algorithm that allows the router, which is a resource in the network, to evenly process packets in the SDN with SR, so that the administrator can utilize the resources in the network without idle routers, and at the same time facilitate the management of the router.

  • Along with changes in the industrial structure, revitalizing decrepit or abandoned industrial-age infrastructures are actively under way on a global scale. This study was motivated by an interest in investigating currently idle industrial infrastructures and revitalizing the abandoned passenger ferry terminal in Geoje's Jangseungpo and surrounding areas. The main aims of this study were to examine regional features for the purpose of establishing urban renewal plans and field opinions of the local residents on how to proceed with the restoration of the passenger ferry terminal. To this end, this paper looked into previous case studies of converting decrepit industrial infrastructures into new cultural venues, depending on each region's special circumstances. This paper's findings are as follows: First, as a result of this investigation, the author found that in all cases in Korea and elsewhere revitalization focused on creating modern cultural spaces appropriate for the region while retaining its traditional value. At the same time, they sought sustainable cultural and economic revival. Second, as a result of the investigation on Geoje City's local characteristics, the author found that the surrounding areas' commercial districts were depressed after the terminal's closure. At the time of the investigation, the city government was trying to reopen the terminal as a major port offering multiple international ferry destinations while attracting tourists. Third, as a result of the surveys on the local residents, it was found that more than half of the residents were in agreement with the city government's plan to reopen the terminal and expressed their wishes that they want the terminal to have other uses such as cultural venues. Based on these research results, the author makes proposals, including expanding the passenger ferry terminal and offering cultural spaces within and near the terminal, based on the local residents' opinions and in reflection of local circumstances. As part of this effort, the author also recommends a new brand name and design plan for the new passenger ferry terminal so that Geoje City can improve its local community value.

  • In this paper, we proposed a burst mode AGC loop and preamble detector applicable for VDL(VHF Digital Link) mode-2 using D8PSK modulation scheme and the performance analysis of proposed schemes is described. Generally the AGC scheme can be divided into two types, continuos and burst mode AGC. The continuos mode is performed well only with an analog feedback AGC loop. But the analog feedback AGC loop is not suitable for burst mode since its gain lock time is more than preamble duration, which causes the preamble detector misses preamble. Hence a fast digital AGC loop is required for burst mode. Also the AGC loop has to be designed with full gain during idle time to detect bursts although the signal level is very low. If the time to acquire gain lock is slow, the preamble detector fail to detect burst due to saturation of a lot of preamble samples. The receiver performance might be down even if the burst was detected because the preamble is used to estimate several parameters need to demodulation at receiver. In this paper we analysed relationships between the AGC loop and preamble detector. we present an AGC loop and preamble detector in burst mode.

  • NOW(Network of Workstations) is considered as a platform for running parallel programs by many people. One of the fundamental problems that must be addressed to achieve good performance for parallel programs on NOW is the determination of efficient job scheduling policies. Currently most research on NOW assumes that all the workstations in the NOW have the same processing power. In this paper we consider a NOW in which workstations may have different computing power. We introduce 10 classes of space sharing-based scheduling policies that can be applied to the NOW with heterogeneous computing power. We compare the performance of these scheduling policies by using the simulator which accepts synthetically generated sequential and parallel workloads and generates the response time and waiting time of parallel jobs as performance indices of various scheduling strategies. Through the experiments the case when a parallel program is partitioned heterogeneously in proportion to the computing power of workstations is shown to have better performance than when a parallel program is partitioned into parallel processes of the same size. When the owner returns to the workstation which is executing a parallel process, the policy which just lowers the priority of the parallel process shows better performance than the one which migrates the parallel process to a new idle workstation. Among the policies which use heterogeneous partitioning and process priority lowering, the adaptive policy performed best across the wide range of inter-arrival time of parallel programs but when the load imbalance among parallel processes becomes very high, the modified adaptive policy performed better.

  • OMTP (Open Mobile Terminal Platform) is a global forum made by telecommunications providers to promote user-oriented mobile services and data business. Devised by OMTP, BONDI is a browser-based application or a mobile web run-time platform to help widgets make good use of functions of mobile devices in a secure way. BONDI enables applications programmed with web standard technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, CSS, and AJAX to reach the internal functions of mobile devices. Since BONDI, which is not just a simple network application, can reach the internal resources of devices in standard ways, it enables the application and widgets to be developed regardless of tile OS or platform. Web browser-based widgets are vulnerable to the network environment, and their exeeution speed can be slowed as the operations of the widgets or applications become heavy. However, those web widgets will be continuously used thanks to the user-friendly simple interface and the faster speed in using web resources more than the native widgets inside the device. This study suggested a method to effectively operate and manage the resource of OMTP BONDI web widget and then provided an improved result based on a running performance evaluation experiment. The experiment was carried to improve the entire operating time by enhancing the module-loading speed. In this regard, only indispensable modules were allowed to be loaded while the BONDI widget was underway. For the purpose, the widget resource list, able to make the operating speed of the BONDI widget faster, was redefined while a widget cache was employed. In addition, the widget box, a management tool for removed widgets, was devised to store temporarily idle widgets.

  • A desktop grid, which is a computing grid composed of idle computing resources in a large network of desktop computers, is a promising platform for compute-intensive distributed computing applications. However, due to reliability and unpredictability of computing resources, effective scheduling of parallel computing applications on such a platform is a difficult problem. This paper proposes a new scheduling method aimed at reducing the total execution time of a parallel application on a desktop grid. The proposed method is based on utilizing the histories of execution behavior of individual computing nodes in the scheduling algorithm. In order to test out the feasibility of this idea, execution trace data were collected from a set of 40 desktop workstations over a period of seven weeks. Then, based on this data, the execution of several representative parallel applications were simulated using trace-driven simulation. The simulation results showed that the proposed method improves the execution time of the target applications significantly when compared to previous desktop grid scheduling methods. In addition, there were fewer instances of application suspension and failure.
