Traditional software testing typically uses many physical resources to manually build various test environments, resulting in high resource costs and long test time due to limited resources, especially for small enterprises. Cloud computing can provide sufficient low-cost virtual resources to alleviate these problems through the virtualization of physical resources. However, the provision of various test environments and services for implementing software testing rapidly and conveniently based on cloud computing is challenging. This paper proposes a multilayer cloud testing model based on cloud computing and implements a hybrid cloud testing system based on virtual machines (VMs) and networks. This system realizes the automatic and rapid creation of test environments and the remote use of test tools and test services. We conduct experiments on this system and evaluate its applicability in terms of the VM provision time, VM performance and virtual network performance. The experimental results demonstrate that the performance of the VMs and virtual networks is satisfactory and that this system can improve the test efficiency and reduce test costs through rapid virtual resource provision and convenient test services.

자동차, 선박, 기계부품 등의 분야에서 고성능 컴퓨터를 활용한 공학 시뮬레이션 기술은 이미 널리 활용되고 있으며, 바이오, 나노뿐 아니라 금융 분야까지 확대되고 있는 추세이다. 공학 시뮬레이션을 수행하기 위해서는 CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics), 기계구조, 병렬수치해석 등에 대한 고급 지식이 요구되는데, 이로 인해 산업체에서의 활용이 활발하지 못한 것이 현실이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 하나의 대안으로 공학 시뮬레이션 프로세스의 자동화 기술이 등장했으며, 열유체, 피로내구, 진동, 충돌 등의 분야에서 특정제품이나 기술에 대한 시스템이 제안되었다. 국내에서는 에어포일(airfoil), 팬(fan), 기어(gear) 등의 제품이나 주조 기술에 대해 공학 시뮬레이션 자동화가 시도되었다. KISTI에서는 축류팬(axial fan) 시뮬레이션 자동화에 대해 프로토타입 시스템을 구축하였으며, 현대차에서는 자동차 부품에 대한 시뮬레이션 자동화 시스템을 구축하여 활용하고 있다. 미국 OSC(Ohio Supercomputer Center)의 경우 용접기술에 대한 시뮬레이션 자동화 시스템을 웹상에 구축하여 서비스를 오픈하였으며, 현재 전 세계 200여 기업이 이용하고 있다. 공학 시뮬레이션 자동화 기술이 보다 발전하기 위해서는 시뮬레이션 결과의 신뢰성, 적용 가능 분야 및 제품의 확대, 데이터보안 등이 확보되어야 한다.

The super computer calls usually as the super computer in case the computing power of the computer is 20 G flops (GFLOPS) or greater. In the past, the computer equipped with the vector processor (the instrument processing the order having the logic operation and maximum value or minimum value besides the common computer instruction) processing the scientific calculation with the super high speed was installed as the super computer. Recently, cyber attack focuses on supercomputer because if it is being infected, then it will affect hundreds of client PC. Therefore, our research paper analyzed super computer security issues and biometric countermeasure to develop the level of security on super computer.

Current state and perspective of DNS of turbulence and turbulent combustion are discussed with feature trend of the fastest supercomputer in the world. Based on the perspective of DNS of turbulent combustion, possibility of perfect simulations of IC engine is shown. In 2020, the perfect simulation will be realized with 30 billion grid points by 1EXAFlops supercomputer, which requires 4 months CPU time. The CPU time will be reduced to about 4 days if several developments were achieved in the current fundamental researches. To shorten CPU time required for DNS of turbulent combustion, two numerical methods are introduced to full-explicit full-compressible DNS code. One is compact finite difference filter to reduce spatial resolution requirements and numerical oscillations in small scales, and another is well-known point-implicit scheme to avoid quite small time integration of the order of nanosecond for fully explicit DNS. Availability and accuracy of these numerical methods have been confirmed carefully for auto-ignition, planar laminar flame and turbulent premixed flames. To realize DNS of IC engine with realistic kinetic mechanism, several DNS of elemental combustion process in IC engines has been conducted.

The IEEE 802.15.6 standard is introduced to satisfy all the requirements for monitoring systems operating in, on, or around the human body. In this paper, analytical models are developed for evaluating the performance of the IEEE 802.15.6 CSMA/CA-based medium access control protocol for wireless body area networks (WBAN) under unsaturation condition. We employ a three-dimensional Markov chain to model the backoff procedure, and an M/G/1/K queuing system to describe the packet queues in the buffer. The throughput and delay performances of WBAN operating in the beacon mode are analyzed in heterogeneous network comprised of different user priorities. Simulation results are included to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed analytical model.

The universe is well known to be consists of dark energy, dark matter and the standard model (SM) particles. The dark matter dominates the density of matter in the universe. The dark matter is thought to be linked with dark photon which are hypothetical hidden sector particles similar to photons in electromagnetism but potentially proposed as force carriers. Due to the extremely small cross-section of dark matter, a large amount of data is needed to be processed. Therefore, we need to optimize the central processing unit (CPU) time. In this work, using MadGraph5 as a simulation tool kit, we examined the CPU time, and cross-section of dark matter at the electron-positron collider considering three parameters including the center of mass energy, dark photon mass, and coupling constant. The signal process pertained to a dark photon, which couples only to heavy leptons. We only dealt with the case of dark photon decaying into two muons. We used the simplified model which covers dark matter particles and dark photon particles as well as the SM particles. To compare the CPU time of simulation, one or more cores of the KISTI-5 supercomputer of Nurion Knights Landing and Skylake and a local Linux machine were used. Our results can help optimize high-energy physics software through high-performance computing and enable the users to incorporate parallel processing.

A virtual screening is the process of reducing an unmanageable number of compounds to a limited number of compounds for the target of interest by means of computational techniques such as molecular docking. And it is one of a large-scale scientific application that requires large computing power and data storage capability. Previous applications or softwares for molecular docking such as AutoDock, FlexX, Glide, DOCK, LigandFit, ViSION were developed to be run on a supercomputer, a workstation, or a cluster-computer. However the virtual screening using a supercomputer has a problem that a supercomputer is very expensive and the virtual screening using a workstation or a cluster-computer requires a long execution time. Thus we propose a service-based virtual screening system using Grid computing technology which supports a large data intensive operation. We constructed 3-dimensional chemical molecular database for virtual screening. And we designed a resource broker and a data broker for supporting efficient molecular docking service and proposed various services for virtual screening. We implemented service based virtual screening system with DOCK 5.0 and Globus 3.2 toolkit. Our system can reduce a timeline and cost of drug or new material design.

Progresses in numerical prediction of weather and climate have been in parallel with those of computing resources, especially the development of supercomputers. Advanced techniques in numerical modeling, computational schemes, and data assimilation cloud not have been practically achieved without the aid of supercomputers. With such techniques and computing powers, the accuracy of numerical forecasts has been tremendously improved. Supercomputers are also indispensible in constructing and executing the synthetic Earth system models. In this study, a brief overview on numerical weather / climate prediction, Earth system modeling, and the values of supercomputing is provided.

A vector algorithm for calculating the stiffness matrices of reinforced concrete shell elements is presented. The algorithm is based on establishing vector lengths equal to the number of elements. The computational efficiency of the proposed algorithm is assessed on a Cray Y-MP supercomputer. It is shown that the vector algorithm achieves scalar-to-vector speedup of 1.7 to 7.6 on three inelastic problems.
