In these days, internet environment are very quickly development as well on-line service have been using a online for the mission critical business around the world. As the amount of information to be processed by computers has recently been increased there has been cluster computing systems developed by connecting workstations server using high speed networks for high availability. but cluster computing technology are limited for a lot of IT resources. So, grid computing is an expanded technology of distributed computing technology to use low-cost and high-performance computing power in various fields. Although the purpose of Grid computing focuses on large-scale resource sharing, innovative applications, and in some case, high-performance orientation, it has been used as conventional distributed computing environment like clustered computer until now because grid middleware does not have common sharable information system. In order to use grid computing environment efficiently which consists of various grid middleware, it is necessary to have application-independent information system which can share information description and services, and expand them easily. This paper proposed new database architecture and load balancing for high availability through Grid technology.

This paper presents a four-noded quadrilateral $C^0$ strain plate element for the analysis of thick laminated composite plates. The element formulation is based on: 1) the third-order shear deformation theory; 2) assumed strain element formulation; and 3) interrelated edge displacements and rotations along element boundaries. Unlike the existing displacement-type composite plate elements based on the third-order theory, which rely on the $C^1$-continuity formulation, the present plate element is of $C^0$-continuity, and its element stiffness matrix is evaluated explicitly. Because of the third-order expansion of the in-plane displacements through the thickness, the resulting theory and hence elements do not need shear correction factors. The explicit element stiffness matrix makes the present element more computationally efficient than the composite plate elements using numerical integration for the analysis of thick layered composite plates.

Due to the recent advancement of networking and high-performance computing technologies, scientists can easily access large-scale data captured by scientific measurement devices through a network, and use huge computational power harnessed on the Internet for their analyses of scientific data. However, visualization technology, which plays a role of great importance for scientists to intuitively understand the analysis results of such scientific data, is not fully utilized so that it can seamlessly benefit from recent high-performance and networking technologies. One of such visualization technologies is SAGE (Scalable Adaptive Graphics Environment), which allows people to build an arbitrarily sized tiled display wall and is expected to be applied to scientific research. In this paper, we present a multi-application controller for SAGE, which we have developed, in the hope that it will help scientists efficiently perform scientific research requiring high-performance computing and visualization. The evaluation in this paper indicates that the efficiency of completing a comparison task among multiple data is increased by our system.

In this paper, we proposed a methodology for portable disease diagnosis platform using high performance computing. The proposed methodology consists of gathering clinical data, diagnosis and feature selection algorithm, implementation of diagnosis platform. For the algorithm verification, a clinical data which is obtained from 401 people(314 normal subjects and 87 liver cancer patients) using a microarray consists of 1,146 aptamers were used. As the result, we could diagnosis liver cancer with 97.5% accuracy using the 32 selected aptamers. Based on these results, we designed and implemented a portable disease diagnosis platform which has 32 bio-signals as inputs.

The high-speed network permits Grid computing to handle large problem of management areas and share various computational resources. As there are many resources and changes of them in Grid computing, the resources should be detected effectively and matched correctly with tasks to provide high performance. In this paper, we propose a mechanism that maximizes the performance of Grid computing systems. According to a priority, grade and site of heterogeneous resources, we assign tasks to those resources. Initially, a volunteer's priority and ranking are determined by static information like as CPU speed, RAM size, storage size and network bandwidth. And then, the rank of resources is decided by considering dynamic information such as correctness, response time, and error rate. We find that overall Grid system performance is improved and high correctness using resource reallocation mechanism is achieved.

With the development of computing technology, the convergence of ICT with existing traditional industries is being attempted. In particular, with the recent advent of 5G, connectivity with numerous AuT (autonomous Things) in the real world as well as simple mobile terminals has increased. As more devices are deployed in the real world, the need for technology for devices to learn and act autonomously to communicate with humans has begun to emerge. This article introduces "Device to the Edge," a new computing paradigm that enables various devices in smart spaces (e.g., factories, metaverse, shipyards, and city centers) to perform ultra-reliable, low-latency and high-speed processing regardless of the limitations of capability and performance. The proposed technology, referred to as EdgeCPS, can link devices to augmented virtual resources of edge servers to support complex artificial intelligence tasks and ultra-proximity services from low-specification/low-resource devices to high-performance devices.

We developed a pilot-job based large-scale distributed computing system to support HTC and MTC, called HTCaaS (High-Throughput Computing as a Service), which helps scientists solve large-scale scientific problems in areas such as pharmaceutical domains, high-energy physics, nuclear physics and bio science. Since most of these problems involve critical data that affect the national economy and activate basic industries, data privacy is a very important issue. In this paper, we implement a privacy enhanced data security mechanism to support HTC and MTC in a large-scale distributed computing system and show how this technique affects performance in our system. With this mechanism, users can securely store data in our system.

Lustre is a scalable, distributed file system, which is popular in the field of high-performance computing. Recently, the advent of SSD has enabled high-performance storage hardware, but software development requires further improvement. In this paper, we analyzed performance of the Lustre system using SSD via extensive experimentation. We compared performance of Lustre on SSDs and HDDs in terms of file read/write throughputs and metadata access latencies. Our experimental results showed that 1) SSDs improve metadata access performance due to fast random read/write access of SSD characteristics, and 2) SSD are benefited to a greater extent under multiple threads and large numbers of small sized files.

Java has been increasingly used in programming for real-time systems. However, some of Java's features such as automatic memory management and dynamic compilation are harmful to time predictability. If these problems are not solved properly then it can fundamentally limit the usage of Java for real-time systems, especially for hard real-time systems that require very high time predictability. In this paper, we propose to exploit multicore computing in order to reduce the timing unpredictability that is caused by dynamic compilation and adaptive optimization. Our goal is to retain high performance comparable to that of traditional dynamic compilation, while at the same time, obtain better time predictability for Java virtual machine (JVM). We have studied pre-compilation techniques to utilize another core more efficiently, preoptimization on another core (PoAC) scheme to replace the adaptive optimization system (AOS) in Jikes JVM and the counter based optimization (CBO). Our evaluation reveals that the proposed approaches are able to attain high performance while greatly reducing the variation of the execution time for Java applications.

The computational environment in which engineers perform their designs has been rapidly evolved from coarse serial machines to massively parallel machines. Although the recent development of high-performance computers are available for a number of years, only limited successful applications of the new computational environments in computational structural engineering field has been reported due to its limited availability and large cost associated with high-performance computing. As a new computational model for high-performance engineering computing without cost and availability problems, parallel structural analysis models for large scale structures on a network of personal computers (PCs) are presented in this paper. In structural analysis solving routine for the linear system of equations is the most time consuming part. Thus, the focus is on the development of efficient preconditioned conjugate gradient (PCG) solvers on the proposed computational model. Two parallel PCG solvers, PPCG-I and PPCG-II, are developed and applied to analysis of large scale space truss structures.
