Overhead transmission lines are crucial components in power transmission systems. Well-designed maintenance strategy for overhead lines is required for power utilities to minimize operating costs, while improving the reliability of the power system. This paper presents a maintenance priority index (MPI) of overhead lines for a reliability centered approach. Proposed maintenance strategy is composed of a state index and importance indices, taking into account a transmission condition and importance in system reliability, respectively. The state index is used to determine the condition of overhead lines. On the other hand, the proposed importance indices indicate their criticality analysis in transmission system, by using a load effect index (LEI) and failure effect index (FEI). The proposed maintenance method using the MPI has been tested on an IEEE 9-bus system, and a numerical result demonstrates that our strategy is more cost effective than traditional maintenance strategies.

NCW is a new operational concept for modern warfare to improve the ability to conduct combat by connecting command and control system via network. To realize NCW integrating information sharing system between multiple platforms, CDL is considered as a key component for high-speed transmission of ISR data. Accordingly, further studies to enhance the performance of CDL are being performed around the world, and our government has also developed self-reliant CDL, MPI-CDL. However, the maximum data rate and networking performance of current CDL still fall short of the objective to enable multiple systems to share the large ISR data. Therefore, in this paper, we analyze the development flow and international technical trends of CDL, and present an approach for enhancing data rate and networking capacity of the next generation CDL.

In this paper, we analyze the effects of interference canceller on the performance of multitone DS/CDMA system. Although there are various kinds of interference cancellers suggested by different researchers, we adopt a canceller used by Yoon et at.［9］. We consider three kinds of inteferences, that is, multiPath interference(MPI), interchannel interference(ICI) and multiple access interference(MPI). The equations for variances ate derived for the inteferences and thermal noise used for signal to noise ratio calculation. We also consider RAKE reception over multipath channel and three stage interference canceller used for performance improvement. We draw some conclusions that interference canceller is effective in multitone DS/CDMA system and the performance is further improved with the higer order of diversity and larger number of PN chips.

Recently, introduction of the hospital information system has remarkably improved the efficiency of health care services within hospitals. Due to improvement of the hospital information system, the issue of integration of medical information has emerged, and attempts to achieve it have been made. However, as a preceding step for integration of medical information, the problem of searching the same patient should be solved first, and studies on patient identification algorithm are required. As a typical case, similarity can be calculated through MPI (Master Patient Index) module, by comparing various fields such as patient's basic information and treatment information, etc. but it has many problems including the language system not suitable to Korean, estimation of an optimal weight by field, etc. This paper proposes a method searching the same patient using MRI information besides patient's field information as a supplementary method to increase the accuracy of matching algorithm such as MPI, etc. Unlike existing methods only using image information, upon identifying a patient, a highest weight was given to physical information of medical image and set as an unchangeable unique value, and as a result a high accuracy was detected. We aim to use the similarity measurement result as secondary measures in identifying a patient in the future.

Computational analysis of incompressible flows by numerically solving Navier-Stokes equations using multi-block finite volume method is conducted on a parallel computing system. Numerical algorithms adopted in this study $include^{(1)}$ QUICK upwinding scheme for convective $terms,^{(2)}$ central differencing for other terms $and^{(3)}$ the second-order Euler differencing for time-marching procedure. Structured grids are used on the body-fitted coordinate with multi-block concept which uses overlaid grids on the block-interfacing boundaries. Computational code is parallelized on the MPI environment. Numerical accuracy of the computational method is verified by solving a benchmark test case of the flow inside two-dimensional rectangular cavity. Computation in the axial compressor cascade is conducted by using 4 PE's md, as results, no numerical instabilities are observed and it is expected that the present computational method can be applied to the turbomachinery flow problems without major difficulties.

The spray characteristics of air-assisted fuel injection and its effects on the engine combustion was investigated in this study. The atomization characteristics of a Bosch fuel injector inserted into the air-assist adapter were measured using particle motion analysis system. Droplet size decreased with air supplied and fine spray with below $60\mu\textrm{m}$ of SMD was acquired under the conditions of air-assist pressure over 0.5bar. The lean combustion performance of a 1.8L DOHC engine equipped with air-assist adapters was tested on the dynamometer. When the assistant air pressure is 1.0bar, lean limit recorded the highest value, and CO, HC emissions were decreased at the pressure over 1.0bar.

Multiple access interference (MAI) and multi path interference(MPI) degrades the system performance in the DS-CDMA(direct-sequence code-division multiple- access)systems .0 this paper, a generalized construction method fer 2$\^$n/(n=1,2,3) phase preferred pairs(PP) with zero-correlation duration (ZCD) of (0.5N+1) chips is proposed. 2$\^$n/(n=1,2,3) phase ZCD code sets with ZCD and enlarged family sizes are generated by carrying out a chip-shift operation of the preferred pairs . The properties of the proposed codes are effective for the cancellation of MAI and MPI in DS-CDMA Systems.

The high intensity of research and modeling in fields of mathematics, physics, biology and chemistry requires new computing resources. For the big computational complexity of such tasks computing time is large and costly. The most efficient way to increase efficiency is to adopt parallel principles. Purpose of this paper is to present the issue of parallel computing with emphasis on the analysis of parallel systems, the impact of communication delays on their efficiency and on overall execution time. Paper focuses is on finite algorithms for solving systems of linear equations, namely the matrix manipulation (Gauss elimination method, GEM). Algorithms are designed for architectures with shared memory (open multiprocessing, openMP), distributed-memory (message passing interface, MPI) and for their combination (MPI + openMP). The properties of the algorithms were analytically determined and they were experimentally verified. The conclusions are drawn for theory and practice.

We use 162­CPU nodes and a Myrinet network for the cluster

Gadget-2 is a scientific simulation code has been used for many different types of simulations like, Colliding Galaxies, Cluster Formation and the popular Millennium Simulation. The code is parallelized with Message Passing Interface (MPI) and is written in C language. There is also a Java adaptation of the original code written using MPJ Express called Java Gadget. Java Gadget writes a lot of checkpoint data which may or may not use the HDF-5 file format. Since, HDF-5 is MPI-IO compliant, we can use our MPJ-IO library to perform parallel reading and writing of the checkpoint files and improve I/O performance. Additionally, to add reliability to the code execution, we propose the usage of Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) for writing the intermediate (checkpoint files) and final data (output files). The current code writes and reads the input, output and checkpoint files sequentially which can easily become bottleneck for large scale simulations. In this paper, we propose Sim-Hadoop, a framework to leverage HDFS and MPJ-IO for improving the I/O performance of Java Gadget code.
