The IEEE 1394 High Speed Serial Bus is a versatile, high-performance, and low-cost method of promoting interoperability between all types of A/V and computing devices. IEEE 1394 provides two transfer modes: asynchronous mode for best effort service and isochronous mode for best effort service with bandwidth reservation. This paper shows the bus performance and compared the transfer odes first at the link level and then at the application level. For the application level performance, we analyze the bus systems with fixed and adaptive interfaces, applied between the upper layer and the 1394 layer, using polling systems. Also we verifies the analysis models with simulation studies. Based on our analysis, we conclude that the adaptive interface reduces the bus access time and so increases the bus utilization.

Cyclic-Reservation Multiple-Access(CRMA) is an access scheme for high-speed local and metropolitan area networks based on folded-bus or dual-bus configurations. CRMA provides high throughput and fairness independent of the network speed or distance. This paper describes a simulation-based quantitative analysis of the performance gains obtained by introducing slot reuse in CRMA. Generally, a longer cycle length means a longer access delay and a lower throughput. There-fore, it is desirable to develop a scheme such that the cycle length is the shortest. In this paper, we will study the problem of reducing the total number of empty slots generated within every cycle. However, it has been shown that the problem is NP-complete under the constraint that all empty slots used by a station in a cycle are required to be consecutive. We present the algorithm that improves previous novel approach by using previous node information. We compare our slots reuse scheme with several slot reuse algorithms such as region scheme (FMR), address schemes, novel approach in terms of the following two important performance criteria: average cycle length and average slot utilization ratio. As compared with the one proposed in novel algorithm, the new scheme makes the cycle length much shorter. Besides, the resulting slot utilization and the access delay are better than those of the other two schemes.

NUMA 구조는 원격 메모리에 대한 접근이 불가피한 구조적 특성 때문에 상호 연결망이 성능을 좌우하는 큰 변수가 된다. 기존에 대중적으로 사용되던 버스는 물리적 확장성 및 대역폭에서 대규모 시스템을 구성하는 데 한계를 보인다. 이를 대체하는 고속의 지점간 링크를 사용한 링 구조는 버스가 가지는 확장성 및 대역폭의 한계라는 단점을 개선하였으나, 많은 클러스터가 연결되는 경우에는 전송 지연시간이 증가하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스누핑 프로토콜이 적용된 링 구조에서 클러스터 개수 증가에 따른 지연시간 증가의 문제점을 보완하기 위해 계층적 링 구조로의 확장을 제안하고, 이 구조에 효과적인 캐쉬 일관성 프로토콜을 설계하였다. 전역 링과 지역 링을 연결하는 브리지는 캐쉬 프로토콜을 관리하며 이 프로토콜에 의해 지역 링의 부하를 줄일 수 있도록 트랜잭션을 필터링하는 역할도 담당함으로써 시스템의 성능을 향상시킨다. probability-driven 시뮬레이터를 통해 계층적 링 구조가 시스템의 성능 및 링 이용률에 미치는 영향을 알아본다. Abstract Since NUMA architecture has to access remote memory, interconnection network performance determines performance of NUMA architecture. Bus, which has been used as popular interconnection network of NUMA, has a limit to build a large-scale system because of limited physical scalability and bandwidth. Ring interconnection network, composed of high-speed point-to-point link, made up for bus's defects of scalability and bandwidth. But, it also has problem of increasing delay as the number of clusters is increased. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical expansion of snoop-based ring architecture in order to overcome ring's defects of increasing delay. And we also design an efficient cache coherence protocol adopted to this architecture. Bridge, which connects local ring and global ring, maintains cache coherence protocol and does snoop-filtering which reduces local ring and cluster bus utilization. Therefore bridge can improve performance of this system. We analyze effects of hierarchical architecture on the performance of system and utilization of point-to-point links using probability-driven simulator.

Today, the utilization of communication devices is being increased including information terminals, cell phones, handheld personal digital assistants (PDA) caused by the development of information and communication technology. The development of information and services is speeding up, whereas most communication devices have provided a inefficient hierarchical menu and sequential searching structure. In this study, the Adaptive User Interface is applied to the Bus Information Terminal(BIT) which is one of communication equipment installed in the bus stop. It will be based on analysis of unspecified individuals' preferences and user's directly personalization in the BIT prototype. We expect the results of this study to be possible to provide users with efficient and convenient information acquisition and contribute to the development of public transport use by improving the accessibility and usability of BIT.

In this paper, characteristics and types of vehicle accidents involving buses that differ from common passenger cars are analyzed. When heavy vehicles are involved in collision accidents, the external impulse conveyed through bus tire from road surface cannot be ignored, so the conventional rigid-body impact model cannot be applied. As a solution, an analysis model which directly considers the tire impulse or considers the bus as moving barrier has been proposed. Also, as there are many instances in which the location of contact point or coefficients related to rotational motion cannot be estimated, utilization of point-mass collision model has been sought. By applying the proposed analysis model to an actual accident case and comparing with the result of the conventional analysis which does not consider the tire impulse, it is shown that the velocity of bus and other values close to the actual amount can be obtained.

This study analyzed the characteristics of Physical Environment of existing free shuttle bus Interior centered on elderly people who frequently use free shuttle buses. The purpose of this study is to provide basic data that can be used for improvement of existing free shuttle buses. In the case of the old type, in terms of accessible design, the middle entrance is not normally opened except the wheelchair occupant, so that the entrance of the front wheel is always used. Therefore, most elderly people go to the back seat and travel distance is twice longer. In addition, many stairs caused frequent inconveniences for boarding. In the case of the new type, it is planned to be a low-floor type, and various types of safety rods and handles, pictograms for enhancing the information convenience are well-equipped, and the measured value of the overall design characteristic is high. However, in the case of mental stability, it was confirmed that the seat of the bus is colored with a cold color system and is in a different relationship with the warm color which can feel mental stability. Overall, both old and new shuttle buses lack audiovisual feedback on bus routes and route guidance in terms of Supportive design. Also, since the cleaning tools and other miscellaneous items were left in the room, it became an obstacle to space utilization in terms of adaptable design. In terms of safety, both shuttle buses did not come into view with fire extinguishers shaded by miscellaneous items. Therefore, immediate action is unlikely in case of emergency. This problem should be resolved quickly.

In this paper, we researched on the improved method for transferring noise which is generated from power island. In general case, the power island has a drawback where the noise transfer increase because of the structural resonance in each power bus. Thus, this paper suggests two improved methods that reduces the noise transfer. First method is to suppress the structural resonance by varying the source of the noise. The second method is to utilize the EGI in order to minimize the EGI in order to minimize the transfer of the noise when the resonance occurs. The simulation analysis shows that the relocation of the noise source dramatically minimized the resonance in power bus and the utilization of EGI has effectively reduced the noise transfer.

The purposes of this study are two folds: a) to introduce conjoint choice model to research the choice behavior of theme park users, and b) to suggest the strategies to strengthen the competitiveness of theme parks. The major four theme parks in Seoul metropolitan areas were selected as study areas. A leading polling agency was employed to select 432 respondents by probability sampling and to conduct face-to-face interview. Both alternative generating and choice set generating fractional factorial design were conducted simultaneously to meet the necessary and sufficient conditions for calibration of the conjoint choice model. Dummy coding was used to represent the attribute levels, and the alternative-specific model was calibrated. The goodness-of-fit of the model was quite satisfactory($\rho$$^2$=0.47950), and most parameters values had to expected sign and magnitude. Car was preferred transport mode to shuttle bus for visiting theme parks ; however the most ideal attribute levels only were estimated significantly. Most attribute levels of shuttle bus were estimated significantly except the Dream Land, which is the least attractive park among study areas. Simulation results showed that the shuttle bus was a mode worth providing to switch the current car dominant visiting pattern of theme parks, which will be one the effective strategies to attract more patrons, especially for potential users adjacent to parks. Several ideals were suggested for future researches, in terms of utilization of more general utility function and new base alternative, and inclusion of more salient attributes such as constraints in the model.

To evaluate the performance of a multiprocessor system, a discrete event model of memory interference in the system employing multiple-bus interconnection networks is proposed. An analytic model of the system is presented and then simulator models are implemented for cross-verifying the analytic results and simulation results. The simulator model takes as input the number of processors, the number of memory modules, the number of buses and the local memory miss ratio. The model produces as output the memory bandwidth, the processor, memory module and bus utilization and the bus contention ratio. Using the model in the design of the system, it is possible to evaluate the system performance by analyzing the interaction of the input parameters.

This paper presents a new method of Fuzzy Particle Swarm Optimization (FPSO)-based Congestion Management (CM) by optimal rescheduling of active powers of generators. In the proposed method, generators are selected based on their sensitivity to the congested line for efficient utilization. The task of optimally rescheduling the active powers of the participating generators to reduce congestion in the transmission line is attempted by FPSO, Fitness Distance Ratio PSO (FDR-PSO), and conventional PSO. The FPSO and FDR-PSO algorithms are tested on the IEEE 30-bus and Practical Indian 75-bus systems, after which the results are compared with conventional PSO to determine the effectiveness of CM. Compared with FDR-PSO and PSO, FPSO can better perform the optimal rescheduling of generators to relieve congestion in the transmission line.
