This paper describes a prototype of 3-phase 3.3kV/220V 6kVA modular semiconductor transformer developed in the lab for feasibility study. The developed prototype is composed of three single-phase units coupled in Y-connection. Each single-phase unit with a rating of 1.9kV/127V 2kVA consists of a high-voltage high-frequency resonant AC-DC converter, a low-voltage hybrid-switching DC-DC converter, and a low-voltage hybrid-switching DC-AC converter. Also each single-phase unit has two DSP controllers to control converter operation and to acquire monitoring data. Monitoring system was developed based on LabView by using CAN communication link between the DSP controller and PC. Through various experimental analyses it was verified that the prototype operates with proper performance under normal and sag condition. The system efficiency can be improved by adopting optimal design and replacing the IGBT switch with the SiC MOSFET switch. The developed prototype confirms a possibility to build a commercial high-voltage high-power semiconductor transformer by increasing the number of series-connected converter modules in high-voltage side and improving the performance of switching element.

Personal general purpose computer(PC) has been evolved from desktop to portable mobile device such as tablet PC and PDA. Technology innovation on semiconductor have made it possible to package a reasonably Powerful Processor and memory subsystem with advanced input/output devices. At last these subsystems are miniaturized into wearable system. Wearable computer has recently gained attention as the post PC in the ubiquitous environment. Wearable computing becomes more and more feasible and receives growing attention throughout industry and the consumer marketplaces. This paper proposed and developed WPS that has multimedia features and network features as a wearable embedded platform. We explain the form, overall architecture, functions and user applications of this WPS. This paper also discusses the form of next generation computer platform with intuitive user interfaces and well designed applications in the future.

Since DSM provides a user a simple shared memory abstraction, the user does not have to be concerned with data movement between hosts. Each node in DSM systems has processor, memory, and connection to a network. Memory is divided into pages, and a page can have multiple copies in different nodes. To maintain data consistency between nodes, two conventional protocols are used : write-update protocol and invalidate protocol. The performance of these protocols depends on the system parameters and the memory access patterns. for adapting to memory access patterns, competitive update protocol updates those copies of a page that are expected to be used in the near future, while selectively invalidating other copies. We present weighted competitive update protocols that consider different communication bandwidth for each connection a of two nodes. Test result by simulation show that the weighted competitive update protocol improves performance.

Cardiac electrophysiology studies often use simulation to predict how cardiac will behave under various conditions. To observe the cardiac tissue movement, it needs to use the high--resolution heart mesh with a sophisticated and large number of nodes. The higher resolution mesh is, the more computation time is needed. To improve computation speed and performance, parallel processing using multi-core processes and network computing resources is performed. In this study, we compared the computational speeds of CPU parallelization and GPU parallelization in virtual heart simulation for efficiently calculating a series of ordinary differential equations (ODE) and partial differential equations (PDE) and determined the optimal CPU and GPU parallelization architecture. We used 2D tissue model and 3D ventricular model to compared the computation performance. Then, we measured the time required to the calculation of ODEs and PDEs, respectively. In conclusion, for the most efficient computation, using GPU parallelization rather than CPU parallelization can improve performance by 4.3 times and 2.3 times in calculations of ODEs and PDE, respectively. In CPU parallelization, it is best to use the number of processors just before the communication cost between each processor is incurred.

This paper introduces the Parallel Advanced Loosely coupled Multiprocessor (PALM) architecture, which is based on HCH(m,p), where m is number of links per a communication processor (CP) and p is the number of application processors (APs) connected to the CP. communication links between a pair of CPs and/or between a CP and an AP, are made of dual-Port RAMs, which provide fast and reliable word-parallel communication between processors. Among the wide spectrum of HCH networks, HCH(m,2) is also known to be a cost optimal topology, such that HCH(m,2) consists of the largest number of APs retaining the minimal number of CPs and communication links. We also implement a testbed based on HCH(2,2). The experiment result shows that the small communication/computation ratio of the PALM system would realize fine-grain parallelism on message-passing MIMD systems.

This paper describes a design of AES-based CCMP(Counter mode with CBC-MAC Protocol) core for IEEE 802.11i wireless LAN security. To maximize the performance of CCMP core, two AES cores are used, one is the counter mode for data confidentiality and the other is the CBC node for authentication and data integrity. The S-box that requires the largest hardware in ARS core is implemented using composite field arithmetic, and the gate count is reduced by about 27% compared with conventional LUT(Lookup Table)-based design. The CCMP core was verified using Excalibur SoC kit, and a MPW chip is fabricated using a 0.35-um CMOS standard cell technology. The test results show that all the function of the fabricated chip works correctly. The CCMP processor has 17,000 gates, and the estimated throughput is about 353-Mbps at 116-MHz@3.3V, satisfying 54-Mbps data rate of the IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g specifications.

Web based simulation service is utilized to computationally analyze various phenomena in real world according to the progress of network and computing technology. In this paper, we present an improvement and utilization of e-AIRS (e-Science Aerospace Integrated Research System). e-AIRS, has been utilized to support web based CFD simulation service since 2008. has some problems such as stable system, pre processing, post processing. To solver this problem, we improved e-AIRS such as distributed service processing, personal simulation job assignment control, and faster data loading. After improvement, although users increase from 110 to 606, the priority of user requirements is changed from stable system to pre/post processor. User requirements and statistics about e-AIRS simulation service for each semester is analyzed to support more stable and comfortable service.

In distributed wireless sensor network, it is difficult to transmit and analyze the entire stream data depending on limited networks, power and processor. Therefore it is suitable to use alternative stream data processing after classifying the continuous stream data. We propose a classification framework for continuous multivariate stream data. The proposed approach works in two steps. In the preprocessing step, it takes input as a sliding window of multivariate stream data and discretizes the data in the window into a string of symbols that characterize the signal changes. In the classification step, it uses a standard text classification algorithm to classify the discretized data in the window. We evaluated both supervised and unsupervised classification algorithms. For supervised, we tested Bayesian classifier and SVM, and for unsupervised, we tested Jaccard, TFIDF Jaro and Jaro Winkler. In our experiments, SVM and TFIDF outperformed other classification methods. In particular, we observed that classification accuracy is improved when the correlation of attributes is also considered along with the n-gram tokens of symbols.
