This paper presents a new high-performance supporting system of the shallow tunnel. In order to perform this research the mechanism of new supporting system is suggested and compared with the conventional existing supporting system. It is found that the new supporting system as pre-support system has several advantages such as improvement of ground before tunnel excavation and increment of capacity of the tunnel support. The construction procedures of this supporting system are also reviewed. In addition, the numerical simulation is carried out to evaluate the new supporting system. It is found that the new high-performance supporting system is very applicable in shallow depth tunnel such as portal area, tunnel in soil and weak zone, and so on.

The data in automation and control systems can be achieved not only from different field devices but also from different OPC (OLE for Process Control) servers. However, current OPC clients can only read and decode the simple data from OPC servers. They will have some problems to acquire structured data and exchange the structured data. In addition to the large network control systems, the OPC clients can read, write, and subscribe to thousands of data points from/to OPC servers. Due to that, the most important factor for building a high performance and scalable industrial control system is the ability to transfer the process data between server and client in the most efficient and fastest way. In order to solve these problems, we propose a means to implement the OPC DA (Data Access) server supporting the OPC complex data, so that the OPC DA clients are able to read and decode any type of data from OPC servers. We also propose a method for caching the process data in large industrial control systems to overcome the limitation of performance of the pure OPC DA system. The performance analysis and discussion indicate that the proposed system has an acceptable performance and is feasible in order for applying to real-time industrial systems today.

There are many methods for improving TLB (translation lookaside buffer) performance, such as increasing the number of entry in TLB, supporting large page or multiple page sizes. The best way is to support multiple page sizes, but any operating system doesn't support multiple page sizes in user mode. So, we propose the new structure of TLB supporting two pages to obtain the effect of multiple page sizes with high performance and at low cost without operating system support. we propose a new TLB structure supporting two page sizes dynamically and selectively for high performance and low cost design without any operating system support. For high performance, a promotion-TLB is designed by supporting two page sizes. Also in order to attain low power consumption, a banked-TLB is constructed by dividing one fully associative TLB space into two sub-fully associative TLBs. These two banked-TLB structures are integrated into a banked-promotion TLB as a low power and high performance TLB structure for embedded processors. According to the results of comparison and analysis, a similar performance can be achieved by using fewer TLB entries and also power consumption can be reduced by around 50% comparing with the fully associative TLB.

As user's demands for high-speed data traffic are recently increased, ABR services are considered as one of important service requirements in ATM networks. Unfortunately, a number of existing ATM switching systems have structural drawbacks as to support ABR services because these switching systems have been developed to support realtime(rt) services such as CBR and rt-VBR services. To support ABR services in the existing ATM switching systems, new traffic control mechanisms for ABR services are required. This paper proposes a method for supporting ABR services in ATM swithcing systems without back-pressure mechanisms and evaluates the performance of the proposed method using simulation.

Nowadays most vehicles are equipped with a variety of electronic devices to improve user convenience as well as its performance itself. In order to efficiently interconnect these devices with each other, Controller Area Network (CAN) is commonly used. However, the CAN requires reconfiguration of the entire network when a new device, which is capable of supporting both of transmission and reception of data, is added to the existing network. In addition, since CAN is based on the collision avoidance using address priority, it is difficult that a new node is assigned high priority and eventually it results in transmission delay of the entire network. Therefore, in this paper we propose a new system component, called CAN coordinator, and design a new CAN framework capable of supporting plug and play functionality. Through experiments, we also prove that the proposed framework can improve real-time ability based on plug and play functionality.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and millimeter-wave frequencies play key roles in supporting 5G wireless communication systems. They expand the field of wireless communication by increasing the data capacities of communication systems and supporting high data rates. However, short wavelengths, owing to the high millimeter-wave frequencies can cause problems, such as signal attenuation and path loss. To address these limitations, research on high directional beamforming technologies continue to garner interest. Furthermore, owing to the mobility of the UAVs, it is essential to track the beam angle accurately to obtain full beamforming gain. This study presents a beam tracking method based on the unscented Kalman filter using hybrid beamforming. The simulation results reveal that the proposed beam tracking scheme improves the overall performance in terms of the mean-squared error and spectral efficiency. In addition, by expanding analog beamforming to hybrid beamforming, the proposed algorithm can be used even in multi-user and multi-stream environments to increase data capacity, thereby increasing utilization in new-radio multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing systems.

The finishing method of concrete floor using automatic surface finisher is one of new technologies in concrete floor construction. The development of high technologies in construction will increase in order to satisfy the demand to construct high quality building. Using this method, it is possible to increase the quality of building as well as to reduce the labor work in site. In this paper, a system which can be used to finish the concrete floor using automatic surface finisher, is presented and its structural capacities are evaluated. The system is composed of rail which guides the surface vibrator and absorbs the volume change of concrete, and a device supporting the rail. From the experimental work for these devices, it was shown that the support and rail had suitable strength to resist the automatic surface finisher. For design purpose, also, effective span of supports was tabulated.

In order to tolerate faults which may occur during the execution of distributed tasks in high-performance parallel computer systems, tasks are duplicated on different processors. In this paper, by utilizing the task duplication based scheduling algorithm, a new task scheduling algorithm which duplicates each task on more than two different processors with the minimum schedule length is presented, and the number of processors required for the duplication is analyzed with the ratio of communication cost to computation time and the workload of the system. A simulation with various task graphs reveals that the number of processors required for the full-duplex fault-tolerant task scheduling with the obtainable minimum schedule length increases about 30% to 75% when compared with that of the task duplication based scheduling algorithm.

Recently, the development of new structural model in fixed partial denture system is required to be started from the conceptual design with low cost, high performance and quality. In this point, a FEM based design of partial denture is used to investigate stress distribution on the durable shape. In this paper, the structural performances of partial dentures were analyzed under three biting forces. The periodontal embedding model is introduced on behalf of the detailed supporting tissue, which is composed of dentin, cortical bone, cancellous bone and periodontal ligament. Using topology optimization, the optimal reinforcement layout of connector was obtained and the detail shape in the fixed partial denture was designed.
