Knowledge of the technology, characteristics, and market trends of the latest CPUs used in smartphones, computers, and supercomputers and the research trends of leading US university experts gives an edge to policy-makers, business executives, large investors, etc. To this end, we describe three topics in detail at a level that can help educate the non-majors to the extent possible. Topic 1 comprises the design and manufacture of a CPU and the technology and trends of the smartphone SoC. Topic 2 comprises the technology and trends of the x86 CPU and supercomputer, and Topic 3 involves an optical network chip that has the potential to emerge as a major semiconductor chip. We also describe three techniques and experiments that can be used to implement the optical network chip.

마이크로프로세서 기술의 발전으로 멀티코어 저전력 x86 및 ARM CPU 기반의 마이크로서버가 출현하였다. 초기 마이크로서버는 기존 서버보다 작은 크기에 단순 집적도를 높인 구조에서 내 외부 스위치와 스토리지, 관리, 내부 연결망까지 기존의 랙 시스템을 대체 할 마이크로서버가 시장에 출시되고 있다. 특히 마이크로서버 시장에 ARM 프로세서의 가세로 x86 프로세서와 치열한 경쟁이 예상되고 있다. 본고를 통하여 마이크로서버의 특징과 시장, 제품 등에 관해서 살펴보도록 한다.

As processor technology advances, it has accelerated ISA extensions and increased the complexity of micro-architectures, leading to a continued rise in the importance of processor validation techniques. Recently, various fuzzing techniques have been introduced to discover undocumented instructions, and this study highlights the shortcomings of existing undocumented instruction fuzzing techniques and presents our observation on error cases in the latest processors from Intel and AMD. In particular, we analyzes the causes of false positives resulting from the fuzzer incorrectly judging CPU instruction length and proposes the length determination technique based on instruction execution information to improve accuracy.

In this paper, the method of controlling the clock that is inputted on the hardware from the application, and the hardware design method are to be proposed. When the hardware is synthesized to the Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA), the input clock is fixed, and when the input clock is changed, the synthesis process must be passed again to require more time. To solve this problem, the Mixed-Mode Clock Manager(MMCM) module is mounted to control the MMCM module from the application. The controlled MMCM module controls the input clock of the module. The experiment was process the Neural Network algorithm in the x86 CPU and SIMT based processor mounted the FPGA. The results of the experiment, SIMT-based processors, the time that is processed at a frequency of 50MHz was 77ms, 100MHz was 34ms. There was no additional synthesis time due to a change of the clock frequency.

Many public organizations have been adopting and operating various servers. These servers run on Windows, Unix, and Linux operating systems that generally use less than 10% of their capacity. For migrating a public organization to cloud computing, we must first virtualize the server environment. This article proposes a strategy for server virtualization that the National IT Industry Promotion Agency (NIPA) has done and describes the effects of a public organization migrating to cloud computing. The NIPA Computer Center planned an effective virtualization migration on various servers. This project of virtualization migration was conducted with the existing policy of separate x86 servers and Unix servers. There are three popular approaches to server virtualization: a virtual machine model, a paravirtual machine model, and virtualization at the operating system layer. We selected a VMware solution that uses the virtual machine model. We selected servers for virtualization in the following manner. Servers were chosen that had the highest rate of service usage and CPU usage and had been operating for five years or more. However, we excluded servers that require 80% or greater rates of CPU usage. After adopting the server virtualization technique, we consolidated 32 servers into 3 servers. Virtualization is a technology that can provide benefits in these areas: server consolidation and optimization, infrastructure cost reduction and improved operational flexibility, and implementation of a dual computing environment.
