  • In this paper, an efficient storage reclamation algorithm for RISC parallel processing in the object orented programming environments is presented. The memory management for the dynamic memory allocation and the frequent memory access in object oriented programming is the main factor that decreases RISC parallel processing performance. The proposed algorithm can be efficiently allocated the memory space of RISCy computer which is required the frequent memory access, so it can be increased RISC parallel processing performance. The proposed algorithm is verified the efficiency by implementing C language on SUN SPARC(4.3 BSD UNIX).

  • In this paper, a parallel processing system is proposed for improving the processing speed of image related applications. The proposed parallel processing system is fully synchronous SIMD computer with pipelined architecture and consists of processing elements and a multi-access memory system. The multi-access memory system is made up of memory modules and a memory controller, which consists of memory module selection module, data routing module, and address calculating and routing module, to perform parallel memory accesses with the variety of types: block, horizontal, and vertical access way. Morphological filter had been applied to verify the parallel processing system and resulted in faithful processing speed.

  • Recently, hybrid transactional memory (HyTM) has gained much interest from researchers because it combines the advantages of hardware transactional memory (HTM) and software transactional memory (STM). To provide the concurrency control of transactions, the existing HyTM-based studies use a bloom filter. However, they fail to overcome the typical false positive errors of a bloom filter. Though the existing studies use a global lock, the efficiency of global lock-based memory allocation is significantly low in multi-core environment. In this paper, we propose an efficient hybrid transactional memory scheme using near-optimal retry computation and sophisticated memory management in order to efficiently process transactions in multi-core environment. First, we propose a near-optimal retry computation algorithm that provides an efficient HTM configuration using machine learning algorithms, according to the characteristic of a given workload. Second, we provide an efficient concurrency control for transactions in different environments by using a sophisticated bloom filter. Third, we propose a memory management scheme being optimized for the CPU cache line, in order to provide a fast transaction processing. Finally, it is shown from our performance evaluation that our HyTM scheme achieves up to 2.5 times better performance by using the Stanford transactional applications for multi-processing (STAMP) benchmarks than the state-of-the-art algorithms.

  • Nowadays, the number of database applications which need fast transaction processing are increasing. One way to improve the performance of transaction processing is to reside the whole database in main memory As semiconductor memory becomes cheaper and chip densities increase, the research to improve transaction throughput rates of transaction processing system, using main memory databases, has begun In this thesis, how to implement a high performance transaction processing system based on main memory databases, new concurrency control scheme, recovery scheme and storage structure is presented. The objective of the proposed schemes is to improve the transaction processing system performance measured by transaction throughput and response times.

  • This paper proposes a lightweight trace-driven Processing-In-Memory (PIM) simulator, TP-Sim. TP-Sim is a General Purpose PIM (GP-PIM) simulator that evaluates various PIM system performance-related metrics. Based on instruction and memory traces extracted from the Intel Pin tool, TP-Sim can replay trace files for multiple models of PIM architectures to compare its performance. To verify the availability of TP-Sim, we estimated three different system configurations on the STREAM benchmark. Compared to the traditional Host CPU-only systems with conventional memory hierarchy, simple GP-PIM architecture achieved better performance; even the Host CPU has the same number of in-order cores. For further study, we also extend TP-Sim as a part of a heterogeneous system simulator that contains CPU, GPGPU, and PIM as its primary and co-processors.

  • In this paper, we designed an image processing system for the high speed line-scan camera which adopts the new memory model we proposed. As a resolution and a data rate of the line-scan camera are becoming higher, the faster image processing systems are needed. But many conventional systems are not sufficient to process the image data from the line-scan camera during a very short time. We designed the memory controller which eliminates the time for transferring image data from the line-scan camera to the main memory with high-speed SRAM and has a dual-port configuration therefore the DSP can access the main memory even though the memory controller are writing the image data. The memory controller is implemented by VHDL and Xilinx SPARTAN-IIE FPGA.

  • Disturbances in memory are the most common problem in patients with an organic mental syndrome. Other patients with significant psychiatric disorders also often have difficulty with memory. So it is very important in the clinical practice of psychiatry to understand the biological and neurocognitive mechanisms of memory proessing, and to develop the assessment tools with which memory function can be evaluated reliably and validly. Moreover, memory researches provide an important viewpoint from which we can understand the pathophysiological mechanisms of major neuropsychiatric illnesses. This article focuses on our understanding of memory functions in clinical and neurobiological aspects. The relevant material will be presented in four parts : 1) terminologies needed in defining major stages of various types of memory processing : 2) neurochemical and neuroanatomical basis of memory processing : 3) brief bed-side screening tests and more comprehensive neuropsychological tests for the evaluation of memory function : 4) the characteristics of memory dysfunction in several major psychiatric illnesses.

  • This dissertation present a chip with Multi-Access Memory System(MAMS) and parallel processor for 16 Processing Elements of image processing purpose. MAMS is a kind of parallel access memory system and can simultaneously access to random pixel datas with eight types. It is possible to set a interval about pixel datas to access, too. The parallel processor built-in MAMS actually has been realized in 2003 but its performance fell short of a real time process for high-definition images. I designed a improved parallel processing system by means of addition and expansion of Memory Modules and Processing Elements of previous one. It is feasible to perform a Morphological Closing at the speed of 3 times of the previous one and 6 times of serial system.
