Many recent supercomputers employ a kind of switch-based multistage interconnection network architectrues (MINs) for constructing scalabel parallel compters. This paper proposed a new routing method, hybrid wormhole and virtual-cut through routing (HWCR) for the prevention of rapid performance degradation comming from a conflict in links usage at hot traffic situation. This HWCR through (VCT) for the fast removing temporal stagger, result in seamless flow of packet stream. When the blocked link is removed, wormhole routing is resumed. The HWCR method adopted a hierachical buffer scheme for improving the network performance and reducing the cost in BMINs. We could get optimum buffer size and communicatin latency through the computer simulation based on proposed HWCR, and the results were compared to those using wormhole and VCT.

Smart manufacturing is a process of integrating computer-related technologies in production and by doing so, achieving more efficient production management. The recent development of supercomputers has led to the broad utilization of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning techniques useful in predicting specific patterns. Despite the usefulness of AI and machine learning techniques in smart manufacturing processes, there are many fundamental issues with the direct deployment of these technologies related to data management. In this paper, we focus on solving the outlier detection issue in smart manufacturing applications. More specifically, we apply a state-of-the-art outlier detection technique, called Elliptic Envelope, to detect anomalies in simulation-based collected data.

Public research, which requires large computational resources, utilizes the supercomputers of the National Supercomputing Center in the Republic of Korea. The average utilization rate of resources over the past three years reached 80%. Therefore, to ensure the operational stability of this national infrastructure, specialized centers have been established to distribute the computational demand concentrated in the national centers. It is necessary to predict the computational demand accurately to build an appropriate resource scale. Therefore, it is important to estimate the inflow and outflow of computational demand between the national and specialized centers to size the resources required to construct specialized centers. We conducted a logit model analysis using the probabilistic utility theory to derive the preferences of individual users for future supercomputer resources. This analysis shows that the computational demand share of specialized centers is 59.5%, which exceeds the resource utilization plan of existing specialized centers.

The calculation speed of quantum computing is expected to outperform that of existing supercomputers with regard to certain problems such as secure computing, optimization problems, searching, and quantum chemistry. Many companies such as Google and IBM have been trying to make 50 superconducting qubits, which is expected to demonstrate quantum supremacy and those quantum computers are more advantageous in computing power than classical computers. However, quantum computers are expected to be applicable to solving real-world problems with superior computing power. This will require large scale quantum computing with many more qubits than the current 50 qubits available. To realize this, first, quantum error correction codes are required to be capable of computing within a sufficient amount of time with tolerable accuracy. Next, a compiler is required for the qubits encoded by quantum error correction codes to perform quantum operations. A large-scale quantum computer is therefore predicted to be composed of three essential components: a programming environment, layout mapping of qubits, and quantum processors. These components analyze how many numbers of qubits are needed, how accurate the qubit operations are, and where they are placed and operated. In this paper, recent progress on large-scale quantum computing and the relation of their components will be introduced.

The advent of supercomputers contribute greatly in overcoming scientific and academic problems that were previously difficult to solve. However, the supercomputer itself suffers from the problem of being considerable cost. In response, the concept of grid computing, to use the resources of distribute computers connected with each other, was created. This system uses connection oriented protocols to integrate and manage the resources of different types of distributed systems, yet it has the problem of compatibility between protocols of other types. In this paper, a system to manage grid network performance through XML-based SOAP web service which is platform-independent, is proposed.

P2P systems have been studied by many researchers in universities and commercial firms in recent years. In this study. we design and implement a system that makes UP for shortcomings of currently available P2P systems. Gnutella and Napster. The study also includes an efficiency analysis scheme conducted through a series of experimental data. The data sharing system of the study demonstrated duality of roles(client, service) of peers. But, their roles were separated from the existing client-server systems. Also, the study implements mechanism that shows the redundancy of data to communicate efficiently among peers for transferring data. The results of performance measure of the system shows that the amount of information shared by peers increases as the amount of peers increases but with no significant increase in response time. This constant response time is far more stable and faster than current file sharing systems. such as Gnutella and Napster. Business applications such as knowledge management, enterprise information portal management and transfer of data are done by use of supercomputers. They need to extend their systems to equip with more capacity and throughput as the number of clients increases. Moreover, they will face with more complicated problems if integration with new systems exists. If this JDSS is introduced to these business applications. it would easily augment scalability of the system with high performance at less expense.

Grid computing is an emerging technology that enables global resource sharing. In Korea, the $K^*$Grid provides an extremely powerful research environment to both industries and academia. As part of the $K^*$Grid project, we have constructed, together with the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information and a number of domestic universities, a supercomputer Grid test bed which connects several types of supercomputers based on the globus toolkit. To achieve efficient networking in this Grid testbed, we propose a novel method of available bandwidth measurement, called Decoupled Capacity measurement with Initial Gap (DCIG), using packet trains. DCIG can improve the network efficiency by selecting the best path among several candidates. Simulation results show that DCIG outperforms previous work in terms of accuracy and the required measurement time. We also define a new XML schema for DCIG request/response based on the schema defined by the Global Grid Forum (GGF) Network Measurement Working Group (NM-WG).
