  • Recent improvements of satellite remote sensing sensors which are represented by hyperspectral imaging sensors and high spatial resolution sensors provide a large amount of data, typically several hundred megabytes per one scene. Moreover, increasing information exchange via internet and information super-highway requires the developments of more active service systems for processing and analysing of remote sensing data in order to provide value-added products. In this sense, an advanced satellite data processing system is being developed to achive high performance in computing speed and efficieney in processing a huge volume of data, and to make possible network computing and easy improving, upgrading and managing of systems. JAVA internet programming language provides several advantages for developing software such as object-oriented programming, multi-threading and robust memory managent. Using these features, a satellite data processing system named as GeoPixel has been developing using JAVA language. The GeoPixel adopted newly developed techniques including object-pipe connect method between each process and multi-threading structure. In other words, this system has characteristics such as independent operating platform and efficient data processing by handling a huge volume of remote sensing data with robustness. In the evaluation of data processing capability, the satisfactory results were shown in utilizing computer resources(CPU and Memory) and processing speeds.

  • Multi-core system is becoming more general with development of microprocessors. Due to this change in performance improvement paradigm, switching conventional single thread applications with multi thread applications. Performance monitoring tools are used to optimize application performance because of complexity in development of multi thread applications. Conventional performance monitoring tools are focused on performance itself rather than user friendliness or real-time support. Real-time performance monitor identify the problem while multi-threaded applications should be performed as well as check real-time operating status of the application. So it can be used as an effective tool compared to non-real-time performance monitor that only with simple performance indicators to find the cause of the problem. In this paper, we propose RMPM(Real-time Multi-core Performance Monitor) which is real-time performance monitoring tool for multi-core system. Observation period is optimized by comparing relation between overhead due to performance evaluation period and accuracy. Our performance monitor shows not only amount of CPU usage of whole system, memory usage, network usage but also aspect of overhead distribution per thread of an application.

  • We have tried to compare two different IDSs which are widespread over the network administrator, Snort and Suricata, in functional and performance aspects. Specifically, we focused on analyzing upon what functions for detecting threat were added newly and what Multi-Threading introduced newly for Suricata has influenced in a performance aspect. As a result, we could discover that there are some features in Suricata which has never existed in Snort such as Protocol Identification, HTTP Normalizer & Parser, and File Identification. Also, It was proved that the gap of PPS(Packets Per Second) becomes wider, as the number of CPU Cores which are working increase. Therefore, we could conclude that Suricata can be an efficient alternative for Snort considering the result that Suricata is more effective quantitatively as well as qualitatively.

  • As security log plays important roles in various fields, the integrity of log data become more and more important. Especially, the stored log data is an immediate target of the intruder to erase his trace in the system penetrated. Several theoretical schemes to guarantee the forward secure integrity have been proposed, even though they cannot provide the integrity of the log data after the system is penetrated. Authentication tags of these methods are based on the linear-hash chain. In this case, it is difficult to run partial validation and to accelerate generating and validating authentication tags. In this paper, we propose a log authentication mechanism, based on Mekle Tree, which is easy to do partial validation and able to apply multi threading.

  • The burgeoning distribution of smartphone web applications based on various mobile environments is increasingly focusing on the performance of mobile applications implemented by JavaScript and HTML5 (Hyper Text Markup Language 5). If application software has a simple functional processing structure, then the problem is benign. However, browser loads are becoming more burdensome as the amount of JavaScript processing continues to increase. Processing time and capacity of the JavaScript in current mobile browsers are limited. As a solution, the Web Worker is designed to implement multi-threading. However, it cannot guarantee the computing ability as a native application on mobile devices, and is not sufficient to improve processing speed. The method proposed in this research overcomes the limitation of resources as a mobile client and guarantees performance by native application software by providing high computing service. It shifts the JavaScript process of a mobile device on to a cloud-based computer server. A performance evaluation experiment revealed the proposed algorithm to be up to 6 times faster in computing speed compared to the existing mobile browser's JavaScript process, and 3 to 6 times faster than Web Worker. In addition, memory usage was also less than the existing technology.

  • WWW에 있어서 데이타베이스 통로는 필수적이다. 데이타베이스를 이용한 대부분의 웹 서비스는 CGI를 통해서 이루어지고 있는데 본 논문에서는 CGI가 갖는 문제점을 근본적으로 해결하기 위한 프레임웍으로서 JAQS(JAva Query Stub)를 제안하고 있다. JAQS를 통하여 이루어지는 서비스는 HTTP의 비연결성(connectionless) 및 무상태성(stateless)을 극복함으로써 상태 및 트랜잭션 관리를 지원할 수 있음은 물론 자바언어로 구현되어 플랫폼 독립적인 구조와 다중쓰레드를 최대한 활용하고 있다. 또한 JAQS와 함께 제안하고 있는 JAQS 관리자를 이용하면 데이타베이스가 분산되어 있는 환경에서도 효율적으로 동작할 수 있는 구조로 이루어져있다.Abstract Database gateway is absolutely vital to web-based services. Most web-based services with DBMS are implemented using CGI(Common Gateway Interface). This paper proposes a framework, dubbed JAQS(JAva Query Stub), as a solution for problems of CGI. JAQS not only supports state/transaction management by overcoming the connectionless and stateless nature of HTTP, but also effectively guarantees platform/DBMS-independence and multi-threading abilities because JAQS is implemented using Java. Also, using the JAQS Manager additionally proposed in this paper, JAQS can operate efficiently even in distributed database environments.

  • Wireless sensor networks are sensing, computing and communication infrastructures that allow us to monitor, instrument, observe, and respond to phenomena in the harsh environment. Generally, the wireless sensor networks are composed of many deployed sensor nodes that were designed to be very cost-efficient in terms of production cost. For example, UC Berkeley's MICA motes have only 8-bit CPU, 4KB RAM, and 128KB FLASH memory space. Therefore, sensor operating systems that run on the sensor nodes should be able to operate efficiently in terms of the resource management. In this paper, we present a dynamic threads stack management scheme for space-constrained and multi-threaded sensor operating systems. In this scheme, the necessary stack space of each function is measured on compile-time. Then, the information is used to dynamically allocate and release each function's stack space on run-time. It was implemented in Nano-Qplus sensor operating system. Our experimental results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing fixed-size stack allocation mechanism.

  • Demand for high resolution video services leads to active studies on high speed video processing. Especially, widespread deployment of multi-core systems accelerates researches on high resolution video processing based on parallelization of multimedia software. Previously proposed parallelization approach could improve the decoding performance. However, some parallelization methods did not consider the entropy decoding and others considered only a partial decoding parallelization. Therefore, we consider parallel entropy decoding integrated with other parallel video decoding process on a multi-core system. We propose a novel parallel decoding method called Integrated Parallelization. We propose a method on how to optimize the parallelization of video decoding when we have a multi-core system with many cores. We parallelized the KTA 2.7 decoder with the proposed technique on an Intel i7 Quad-Core platform with Intel Hyper-Threading technology and multi-threads scheduling. We achieved up to 70% performance improvement using IP method.

  • The object-oriented design methods and their CASE tools are widely used in practice by many real-time software developers. However, object-oriented CASE tools require an additional step of identifying tasks from a given design model. Unfortunately, it is difficult to automate this step for a couple of reasons: (1) there are inherent discrepancies between objects and tasks; and (2) it is hard to derive tasks while maximizing real-time schedulability since this problem makes a non-trivial optimization problem. As a result, in practical object-oriented CASE tools, task identification is usually performed in an ad-hoc manner using hints provided by human designers. In this paper, we present a systematic, schedulability-aware approach that can help mapping real-time object-oriented models to multi-threaded implementations. In our approach, a task contains a group of mutually exclusive transactions that may possess different periods and deadline. For this new task model, we provide a new schedulability analysis algorithm. We also show how the run-time system is implemented and how executable code is generated in our frame work. We have performed a case study. It shows the difficulty of task derivation problem and the utility of the automated synthesis of implementations as well as the Inappropriateness of the single-threaded implementations.
