A performance monitor is indispensable to trace and evaluate performance of a program under distributed processing environment. A performance monitor il classified as off-line and on-line according to its output method. An off-line performance monitor analyzes its performance after a program terminates, and an on-line performance monitor analyzes its one while a program runs. Therefore, the on-line function is essential to analyzing and debugging the program fast. JaNeC, distributed processing environment that is implemented in Java, contains an off-line performance monitor for this. However, this performance monitor may not analyze the program running on JaNeC efficiently. Consequently, this paper explains that an on-line performance monitor is designed and implemented for fast analysis and debugging of the program running on JaNeC. This on-line performance monitor is designed to minimize effects on a program to analyze, and provides various forms of graphic output, to analyze the program effectively. In addition, even after a program terminates, it provides interface with the off-line performance monitor, to analyze again.

This paper describes the design and test of an on-line non-invasive network performance monitor (hardware portion) for the SPAX parallel computer. The SPAX parallel computer supports up to 256 intel P6 processors with 4 P6 processors constituting a processign node. The nodes are interconnected with a dual two-level crossbar network calle dXcent-net. Since the performance of the SPAX parallel computer is highly dependent on the proper and efficient operation of the network, an on-line non-invasive network performance monitor (with hardware components) has been developed to aid in the monitoring and tunign of the Xcent-net. Successful testing of a prototype node monitor board and PC interface system shows that our monitor design provides a low-cost practical solution to this problem.

Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) developed a risk monitor called Risk Monster which supports for plant operators and maintenance schedulers to monitor plant risk and to avoid high peak risk by rearranging maintenance work schedule. Risk Monster can update the plant risk continuously according to the change of system/component configuration since Risk Monster reevaluates the plant risk based on the Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) results. A brief description of Risk Monster is provided. The PSA model of UCN 3, 4 nuclear power plant was converted by KAERI to Risk Monster model. Using this Risk Monster model, a feasibility study of the on-line maintenance of an Essential Service Water (ESW) pump was performed. On-line maintenance of one ESW pump has been shown to be acceptably safe, and has economic benefits. In addition, it is not a violation of technical specification to continue plant operation with an out-of-service ESW pump.

Risk Monster는 한국원자력연구소에서 개발한 risk monitor로서 발전운영시 및 정비계획시 원전의 기기 운영 상태 (=Configuration)의 실제 변경이나 계획시 이에 따른 원전의 안전성 (또는 Risk)를 평가 및 감시하는 시스템이다. 안전성은 노심손상 빈도를 가지고 평가하며 이 Risk Monster의 국내 원전에의 활용, 특히 on-line maintenance시의 활용을 모색하였다. 외국에서처럼 국내 원전에서도 risk monitor를 이용한 on-line maintenance를 실시 하여 원전의 경제성 및 안전성을 향상 시켜야 한다.

The traction DC feeder cable is one of the key devices for the safety operation of subway system, but for low voltage DC feeder cable (<3000 V) for subway, little attention has been paid by investigators on its online monitoring technology. With an introduction of cable laying and operation environment for the cable, this paper investigated the on-line monitoring technology of 1500 V DC feeder cable of subway. Firstly, in the text, the fault model of 1500 V DC cable was proposed based on the analysis of the fault type of the DC feeder cable, and then put forward synthetically on-line monitoring discharge signal and DC leakage current signal to assess DC feeder cable insulating state. The results of laboratory experiment prove that the proposed methods are feasible and can be implemented on-line monitor on DC feeder cable of subway.

In this study a fiber optic biosensor has been developed to on-line monitor the concentrations of oxygen and glucose. The oxygen concentrations in solution and gas phase monitored by the fiber optic sensor has been compared with those by a dissolved oxygen electrode and an IR-type $O_2$ analyzer. The fiber optic glucose sensor has been made by immobilizing glucose oxidase on the tip of the optic fiber and used to on-line monitor the concentration of glucose in a fermentation process.

울진 원전 3,4 호기 확률론적 안전성 평가 (PSA) 모델을 risk monitor 모델로 변환하여 한국원자력연구소에서 개발한 risk monitor인 Risk Monster[1]에 설치하였으며 이를 이용하여 필수냉각수 계통(ESW;Essential Service Water) 펌프의 가동중 정비(on-line maintenance)의 가능성 여부를 연구하였다. ESW 펌프를 가동중 정비하더라도 안전성 측면에서 별 문제가 없으며 경제성 여부는 보다 정확한 검토가 요구되나 상당히 있는 것으로 판단된다. 한편 ESW펌프 한대의 고장이 원전 가동중에 미치는 위험도를 분석하였으며 그 결과 ESW펌프 한대의 고장에도 불구하고 원전 계속 가동에는 큰 문제가 없었다.

This study applies an on-line system, which employes an adaptive reconstruction technique to monitor and forecast ocean surface changes. The system adaptively generates an appropriate synthetic time series with recovering missing measurements for sequential images. The reconstruction method incorporates temporal variation according to physical properties of targets and anisotropic spatial optical properties into image processing techniques. This adaptive approach allows successive refinement of the structure of objects that are barely detectable in the observed series. The system sequentially collects the estimated results from the adaptive reconstruction and then statistically analyzes them to monitor and forecast the change in surface characteristics.

The fluorescence sensor is utilized to monitor the complex fluorescence patterns of intra- and extracellular components in cultivation processes. Especially biogenic fluorophores such as proteins and peptides (tryptophan, phenylalanine), coenzymes (FAD, NAD(P)H) and vitamins (riboflavin, pyridoxine) within cells are detected by a fluorescence sensor. In this work a 2-dimensional fluorescence sensor has been used to monitor a production process of itaconic acid by Aspergillus terreus and the on-line monitored spectra data can be con-elated to off-line data measured by a few methods.

We have developed an on-line ultrasonic detector to monitor partial discharge in an operating transformer. The ultrasonic sensor has 150[KHz] resonance frequency and contains a pre-amplifier with 60[㏈] gain. The on-line ultrasonic detector has 50~300[KHz] frequency band-pass filter to remove electrical and mechanical noises from the transformer. This detector has an ultrasonic signal discrimination algorithm which discriminates ultrasonic signals due to partial discharge in a transformer. A moving average method of ultrasonic signal number was employed to effectively monitor the increasing trend of the partial discharge. This paper describes an experience of partial discharge detection in a 154[㎸] operating transformer using an ultrasonic detector. With regards to gas analysis in oil, C2H2 gas was produced with a warning level in this transformer We detected ultrasonic signals on the transformer steel wall, and estimated the position of partial discharge. With further inspection, we found carbonized marks due to partial discharge on the supporting bolt which fastens the windings.
