This paper presents an efficient parallel implementation and its performance evaluations of a SOFM neural netowrk on the multicomputer. We investigate the parallel performance as the size of a neural network N, the number of the patterns L, and the number of the processors p increase. We propose an analytica performance evaluation model for eac of the parallel implementations and verified the validity of the model through experiments. Analytical result show that the number of processors for a maximum speedup of the network decomposition nd the training-set decomposition increases in proportion to .root.N and .root.L, respectively. The performances of the both decompositions depend on the number of training patterns L and the size of the neural network N and, if L.geq.0.423N, the performance of trhe training-set decomposition is proved to be better than that of the network decomposition.

본 논문에서는 Edge computing 환경에서 다수의 노드들로 구성된 네트워크의 디바이스를 효율적으로 관리하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 클라이언트-서버 모델은 모든 데이터와 그에 대한 요청을 중심 서버에서 처리하기 때문에, 다수의 노드로부터 생성된 많은 양의 데이터를 처리하는 데 빠른 응답속도를 보장하지 못한다. Edge computing은 분담을 통해 네트워크의 부담을 줄일 수 있는 IoT 네트워크에 적합한 방법으로, 데이터를 전송하고 받는 과정에서 네트워크의 대역폭을 사용하는 대신 서로 연결된 노드들이 협력해서 데이터를 처리하고, 또한 네트워크 말단에서의 데이터 처리가 허용되어 데이터 센터의 부담을 줄일 수 있다. 여러병렬 기계학습 모델 중 본 연구에서는 Stale Synchronous Parallel(SSP) 모델을 이용하여 Edge 노드에서 분산기계 학습에 적용하였다.

A haptic rendering system is proposed for a puncture task of a virtual vertebra model. To build a mesh model from medical images, Delaunay triangulation is applied and physical models are based on elasticity theory. Also, a redundant actuated 6 DOF parallel type haptic device is designed to display large force and to resolve the singularity problem of parallel type mechanisms. Haptic feeling of puncture task and the performance of the proposed haptic device are tested by two puncture task experiments.

In this paper, we have formulated optimum Accelerated Life Test (ALT) plan for a parallel system with two independent components using masked data with ramp-stress loading scheme and Type-I censoring. Consider a system of two independent and non-identical components connected in parallel. Such a system fails whenever all of its components has failed. The exact component that causes the system to fail is often unknown due to cost and time constraint. For each parallel system at test, we observe its system's failure time and a set of component that includes the component actually causing the system to fail. The stress-life relationship is modelled using inverse power law, and cumulative exposure model is assumed to model the effect of changing stress. The optimal plan consists in finding out the optimum stress rate using D-optimality criterion. The method developed has been explained using a numerical example and sensitivity analysis carried out.

A key issue in spoken language processing has become the integration of speech understanding and natural language processing(NLP). This paper presents a parallel computational model for the integration of speech and NLP. The model adopts a hierarchically-structured knowledge base and memory-based parsing techniques. Processing is carried out by passing multiple markers in parallel through the knowledge base. Speech-specific problems such as insertion, deletion, and substitution have been analyzed and their parallel solutions are provided. The complete system has been implemented on the Semantic Network Array Processor(SNAP) and is operational. Results show an 80% sentence recognition rate for the Air Traffic Control domain. Moreover, a 15-fold speed-up can be obtained over an identical sequential implementation with an increasing speed advantage as the size of the knowledge base grows.

Machine tool chatter is the self-excited vibration generated by chip thickness variation and severely degrades the quality of machined surface. The incidence of chatter is greatly affected by the dynamic characteristics of machine tool structure. Therefore, the cutting dynamics in the parallel machine tool is to be carefully studied considering the dynamic characteristics of parallel mechanism. In this paper, the vibration model of parallel machine tool is derived, in which the legs of the parallel mechanism are considered as spring-damper systems. The chatter stability charts for various machining parameters are examined with the example of the cubic parallel mechanism that is specially designed for machine tool use.

An error analysis is very important for a precision machine to estimate its performances. This study proposes a new parallel device, cubic parallel manipulator. Errors of the proposed cubic parallel manipulator include upper and down universal joint errors, due to the directional changes in the forces in the links, and actuation errors. An error analysis is presented based on an error model formed through the relation between the universal joint errors of the cubic parallel manipulator and the end effector accuracy. The analysis shows that the method can be used in predicting the accuracy of other cubic parallel devices.

This study presents a noble scheme for distributed and parallel simulations with optimized agent placement for simulation instances. The traditional parallel simulation has some limitations in that it does not provide sufficient performance even though using multiple resources. The main reason for this discrepancy is that supporting parallelism inevitably requires additional costs in addition to the base simulation cost. We present a comprehensive study of parallel simulation architectures, execution flows, and characteristics. Then, we identify critical challenges for optimizing large simulations for parallel instances. Based on our cost-benefit analysis, we propose a novel approach to overcome the performance constraints of agent-based parallel simulations. We also propose a solution for eliminating the synchronizing cost among local instances. Our method ensures balanced performance through optimal deployment of agents to local instances and an adaptive agent placement scheme according to the simulation load. Additionally, our empirical evaluation reveals that the proposed model achieves better performance than conventional methods under several conditions.

In this paper, we obtain the estimator of system reliability for the bivariate Pareto model with bivariate type 1 censored data. We obtain the estimators and approximated confidence intervals of the reliability for the parallel system based on likelihood function and the relative frequency, respectively. Also we present a numerical example by giving a data set which is generated by computer.

This paper studies reliability growth model in redundancy allocation of Parallel-series system in which several series system is linked parallelly, The model is generalized by system redundancy of sub-system that have components redundancy. The stage of components in each sub-system is established differently. At the same time by assigned the different number of constraints to the sub-system, this paper deals with rather practical reliability growth model.
