Cyberinfrastructure is a research infrastructure that provides an environment in which research communities can get access to distributed resources and collaborate at unprecedented levels of computation, storage, and network capacity. The Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) is a global collaborative project of computing or data centers that enables access to scientific data generated by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments at CERN. This case study analyzes the WLCG as a model of cyberinfrastructure in research collaboration. WLCG provides a useful case of how cyberinfrastructure can work in providing an infrastructure for collaborative researches under data-intensive paradigm. Cyberinfrastructure plays the critical role of facilitating collaboration of diverse and widely separated communities of researchers. Data-intensive science requires new strategies for research support and significant development of cyberinfrastructure. The sustainability of WLCG depends on the resources of partner organizations and virtual organizations at international levels, essential for research collaboration.

The thesis presents a dual audio decoder which can decode both AC-3 and MPEG-2 bitstream. The MPEG-2 synthesis processi s optimized via FFT to establish the common data path with AC-'3s. A dual audio decoder consists of a DSP core which performs the control-intensive part of each algorithm and a common synthesis filter which perfomrs the computation-intensive part. All the components of the dual audio decoder have been described in VHDL and simulated with a SYNOPSYS tool. The software modeling of the DSP core was used for functional validation. After being synthesized using 0.6 .mu.m-3ML technology standard cell, the dual audio decoder was simulated at gate-level with a COMPASS tool for hardware validation.

Physiological signals provide important clues in the diagnosis and prediction of disease. Analyzing these signals is important in health and medicine. In particular, data preprocessing for physiological signal analysis is a vital issue because missing values, noise, and outliers may degrade the analysis performance. In this paper, we propose PhysioCover, a system that can recover missing values of physiological signals that were monitored in real time. PhysioCover integrates a gradual method and EM-based Principle Component Analysis (PCA). This approach can (1) more readily recover long- and short-term missing data than existing methods, such as traditional EM-based PCA, linear interpolation, 5-average and Missing Value Singular Value Decomposition (MSVD), (2) more effectively detect hidden variables than PCA and Independent component analysis (ICA), and (3) offer fast computation time through real-time processing. Experimental results with the physiological data of an intensive care unit show that the proposed method assigns more accurate missing values than previous methods.

The cylindrical object are widely used as mechanical parts in the manufacturing process. In order to handling those objects using a robot or an automated machine automatically, the pose of the object must be known. The pose can be described by two rotation angles; one angle about the x axis and the other about the y axis. In the many previous researches these angles were obtained by the computationally intensive algorithm, that is, fitting the data as a polynomial and doing pseudo inverse. So that, this method required high performance microprocessor. In this paper in order to avoid complex computation, a new method based on a genetic algorithm is proposed and analyzed through a series of simulations. This algorithm utilized the geometry of the cylindrical shape. The simulation results show that this method find the pose angles very well In most cases, but the computation time is randomly changed because the genetic algorithm is basically one of the random search method.

With the application and development of biomedical techniques such as next-generation sequencing, mass spectrometry, and medical imaging, the amount of biomedical data have been growing explosively. In terms of processing such data, we face the problems surrounding big data, highly intensive computation, and high dimensionality data. Fortunately, cloud computing represents significant advantages of resource allocation, data storage, computation, and sharing and offers a solution to solve big data problems of biomedical research. In order to improve the efficiency of resource management in cloud computing, this paper proposes a clustering method and adopts Radial Basis Function in order to compress comprehensive data sets found in biology and medicine in high quality, and stores these data with resource management in cloud computing. Experiments have validated that with such a data-compression-based resource management in cloud computing, one can store large data sets from biology and medicine in fewer capacities. Furthermore, with reverse operation of the Radial Basis Function, these compressed data can be reconstructed with high accuracy.

The marginal likelihood has become an important tool for model selection in Bayesian analysis because it can be used to rank the models. We discuss the marginal likelihood for Poisson regression models that are potentially useful in small area estimation. Computation in these models is intensive and it requires an implementation of Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. Using importance sampling and multivariate density estimation, we demonstrate a computation of the marginal likelihood through an output analysis from an MCMC sampler.

반도체 공정 기술의 발전으로 인한 개략 배선 지연시간의 증가는 고성능 시스템의 설계를 어렵게 하고 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 배선에 파이프라인 요소를 삽입하는 방법이 있으나 시스템의 타이밍을 변화시켜 시스템의 기능성을 보장할 수 없다. LIP(Latency Insensitive Protocol)는 임의의 파이프라인 요소의 삽입에 대해 기능성을 보장하지만 처리량이 저하된다. 처리량 저하를 줄이기 위해서는 평면계획 단계에서 처리량을 고려하여 블록을 배치하여야 한다. 이러한 평면계획을 가능하게 하기 위해서 새로운 처리량 계산 방법을 제안하고 평면계획의 비용함수에 적용하였다. 실험 결과, 기존의 휴리스틱 처리량 평가 방법을 적용한 평면계획에 비해 처리량이 평균 16.97% 향상되었다.

This paper studies a single-user Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) system where mobile device (MD) includes an application consisting of multiple computation components or tasks with dependencies. MD can offload part of each computation-intensive latency-sensitive task to the AP integrated with MEC server. In order to accomplish the application faultlessly, we calculate out the optimal task offloading strategy in a time-division manner for a predetermined execution order under the constraints of limited computation and communication resources. The problem is formulated as an optimization problem that can minimize the energy consumption of mobile device while satisfying the constraints of computation tasks and mobile device resources. The optimization problem is equivalently transformed into solving a nonlinear equation with a linear inequality constraint by leveraging the Lagrange Multiplier method. And the proposed dual Bi-Section Search algorithm Bi-JOTD can efficiently solve the nonlinear equation. In the outer Bi-Section Search, the proposed algorithm searches for the optimal Lagrangian multiplier variable between the lower and upper boundaries. The inner Bi-Section Search achieves the Lagrangian multiplier vector corresponding to a given variable receiving from the outer layer. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has significant performance improvement than other baselines. The novel scheme not only reduces the difficulty of problem solving, but also obtains less energy consumption and better performance.

움직임 추정은 동영상 압축에서 가장 많은 연산량을 차지하는 부분으로 막대한 연산량을 줄이기 위한 많은 고속 탐색 기법이 제안되어 왔다. 움직임 추정에서 가장 많은 연산량을 차지하는 SAD (sum-of-absolute difference) 계산의 경우, 연산량을 줄이기 위해 SAD 계산 중간에 지금까지 계산된 중간값이 지금까지 찾아진 최소 SAD를 넘을 경우 더 이상의 SAD 계산을 중단하고 다음 탐색으로 넘어가는 조기 중단 기법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 대표적인 고속 탐색 기법인 3단계 탐색기법을 변형하여 조기 중단이 자주 일어나도록 탐색 위치의 탐색 순서만을 적응적으로 재배열하는 움직임 추정 기법을 제안하였다. 모의 실험 결과, 제안하는 움직임 추정 기법은 추가 연산량이 거의 없이 기존의 3단계 탐색 기법에 비해 동일한 성능을 유지하면서 연산량을 17~30% 감소시켰다.

Trackers, especially long-term (LT) trackers, now have a more complex structure and more intensive computation for nowadays' endless pursuit of high accuracy and robustness. However, computing efficiency of LT trackers cannot meet the real-time requirement in various real application scenarios. Considering heterogeneous CPU-GPU platforms have been more popular than ever, it is a challenge to exploit the computing capacity of heterogeneous platform to improve the efficiency of LT trackers for real-time requirement. This paper focuses on TLD, which is the first LT tracking framework, and proposes an efficient parallel implementation based on OpenCL. In this paper, we firstly make an analysis of the TLD tracker and then optimize the computing intensive kernels, including Fern Feature Extraction, Fern Classification, NCC Calculation, Overlaps Calculation, Positive and Negative Samples Extraction. Experimental results demonstrate that our efficient parallel TLD tracker outperforms the original TLD, achieving the 3.92 speedup on CPU and GPU. Moreover, the parallel TLD tracker can run 52.9 frames per second and meet the real-time requirement.
