SD memory cards are widely used in portable digital devices, and most of them exploit NAND flash memory as their storage, so that they have a feature of storing users' important data safely with low costs. In case of using NAND flash memory as storage, however, there is no method to store users' data if memory capacity is insufficient when transferring a large volume of data. This paper proposes a virtual SD memory card system. It used a SD memory card device driver to process data requested from a host by exploiting external storage rather than by exploiting flash memory as a memory core for storing data to the SD memory card. For experiment, it used the FPGA-based SD card slave controller IP on the SMC controller with a S3C2450 ARM CPU to test.

Operational Transformation (OT) algorithms for real-time collaborative editing systems are becoming increasingly important due to the increased demand for collaborative data processing. The operational transformation algorithm is a technique for real-time concurrency control and consistency maintenance with non-locking technique, and many studies have been conducted to overcome three issues of convergence, causality-prevention, and intention-prevention. However, previous work has the disadvantage of wasting memory by storing all operations that occurred during an edit operation in the history buffer to solve this problem. Therefore, we propose a memory-saving real-time collaborative editing system that maintains a constant memory space and concurrency control through a method of applying the valid-time to each user-generated operation in order to reduce memory waste. This system prevents long-term memory occupation of client-generated operations, thus it reduces the space and time complexity even with low-rate of collaboration work, so that the performance degradation avoids.

The main memory DBMS is operated which the contents of the table that resides on a disk at the same time as the drive is in the memory. However, because the main memory DBMS stores the data and transaction log file using the disk file system, there are a limit to the speed at which the CPU accesses the memory. In this paper, I evaluated the performance through analysis of the application side difference the technology that has been implemented in Altibase system of main memory DBMS and Sybase of disk-based DBMS. When the application performance of main memory DBMS is in comparison with the disk-based DBMS, the performance of main memory DBMS was outperformed 1.24~3.36 times in the single soccer game, and was outperformed 1.29~7.9 times in the soccer game / special soccer. The result of sale transaction response time showed a fast response time of 1.78 ~ 6.09 times.

On modern operating systems such as Linux, virtual memory is a general way to provide a large address space to applications by using main memory and storage devices. Recently, storage devices have been improved in terms of latency and bandwidth, and it is expected that applications with large memory show high-performance if next-generation storage devices are considered. However, due to the overhead of virtual memory subsystem, the paging system can not exploit the performance of next-generation storage devices. In this study, we propose several optimization techniques to extend memory with next-generation storage devices. The techniques are to allocate block addresses of storage devices for write-back operations as well as to configure the system parameters, and we implement the techniques on Linux 3.14.3. Our evaluation through using multiple benchmarks shows that our system has 3 times (/24%) better performance on average than the baseline system in the micro(/macro)-benchmark.

In this paper, we have designed and simulated a new file transmission method. This method restricts memory copy and context switching happened in traditional file transmission. This method shows an improved performance than traditional method in network environment. When the UNIX/LINUX system that uses the existing file transfer technique transmits a packet to the remote system, a memory copy between the user and kernel space occurs over twice at least. Memory copy between the user and kernel space increase a file transmission time and the number of context switching. As a result, the existing file transfer technique has a problem of deteriorating the performance of file transmission. We propose a new algorithm for solving these problems. It doesn't perform memory copy between the user and kernel space. Hence, the number of memory copy and context switching is limited to the minimum. We have modified the network related source code of LINUX kernel 2.6.0 to analyzing the performance of proposed algorithm and implement new network system calls.

Dynamic storage allocation (DSA) is a field fairly well studied for a long time as a basic problem of system software area. Due to memory fragmentation problem of DSA and its unpredictable worst case execution time, real-time system designers have believed that DSA may not be promising for real-time application service. Recently, the need for an efficient DSA algorithm is widely discussed and the algorithm is considered to be very important in the real-time system. This paper proposes an efficient DSA algorithm called QSB (quick semi-buddy) which is designed to be suitable for real-time environment. QSB scheme effectively maintains free lists based on quick-fit approach to quickly accommodate small and frequent memory requests, and the other free lists devised with adaptation upon a typical binary buddy mechanism for bigger requests in harmony for the .improved performance. Comprehensive simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms QHF which is known to be effective in terms of memory fragmentation up to about 16%. Furthermore, the memory allocation failure ratio is significantly decreased and the worst case execution time is predictable.

In this paper, we propose an efficient memory architecture for coeff_token encoding in H.264/AVC standard. The VLCTs used to encode the coeff_token syntax element are implemented with the memory. In general, the size of memory must be reduced because it affects the cost and operation speed of the system. Based on the analysis for the codewords in VLCTs, new memory architecture is designed in this paper. The proposed memory architecture results in about 24% memory saving, compared to the conventional memory architecture.

NiTiCu alloys can produce a large force per unit volume and operate with a simple mechanism. For this reasons, it has been widely studied for application as a micro actuator. So in this study, one-way and two way shape memory effects of Ti-42.5at%Ni-2.0at%Cu alloys are studied. In the case of one-way shape memory effects, shape memory recoverable stress and strain of this alloys were measured by means of tension and compression tests under constant temperature. The strains by tension and compression stress were perfectly recovered by heating at any testing conditions also shape memory recoverable stress increased to 116 MPa in tension tests and to 260 MPa in compression tests. In the case of two-way shape memory effects, transformation temperatures from thermal cycling under constant uniaxial applied tension and compression loads linearly increased by increasing external loads and their maximum recoverable strain is 3.8% at 100MPa tensile condition and 2.2% at 125 MPa compression condition.

With the recent proliferation of memory-intensive workloads such as deep learning, analyzing memory access characteristics for efficient memory management is becoming increasingly important. Since read and write operations in memory access have different characteristics, an efficient memory management policy should take into accountthe characteristics of thesetwo operationsseparately. Although some previous studies have considered the different characteristics of reads and writes, they require a modified hardware architecture supporting read bits and write bits. Unlike previous approaches, we propose a software-based management policy under the existing memory architecture for considering read/write characteristics. The proposed policy logically partitions memory space into the read/write area and the write area by making use of reference bits and dirty bits provided in modern paging systems. Simulation experiments with memory access traces show that our approach performs better than the CLOCK algorithm by 23% on average, and the effect is similar to the previous policy with hardware support.
