This paper proposes a method for improving a branch predictor for the extendable instruction set computer (EISC) processor. The original EISC branch predictor has several shortcomings: a small branch target buffer, absence of a global history, a one-bit local branch history, and unsupported prediction of branches following LERI, which is a special instruction to extend an immediate value. We adopt a G-share branch predictor and eliminate the existing shortcomings. We verified the new branch predictor on a field-programmable gate array with the Dhrystone benchmark. The newly proposed EISC branch predictor also accomplishes higher branch prediction accuracy than a conventional branch predictor.

Modulus of elasticity, modulus of rigidity, damping ratio, and natural frequency of three varieties of boxthorn (Lycium chinense Mill) (Cheongyang #2, Cheongyang gugija, and Cheongyang native) branches were analyzed. Modulus of elasticity and modulus of elasticity and modulus of rigidity of the boxthorn branch was determined using standard formula after simple beam bending and torsion test, respectively, using an universal testing machine. Damping ratio and natural frequency of branches were determined using a system consisted of an accelerometer, a PC equipped with A/D converter, and a software for data analysis. Relationship between the elastic modulus and branch diameter in overall varieties and branch types showed a good correlation (r -0.81). There was, however, no correlation between torsional rigidity and branch diameter. The internal damping results were highly variable and the overall range of the damping ratio of the boxthorn branch was 0.014-0.087, which indicated that the branch was a lightly damped structure. The natural frequency of the boxthorn branch was in the range of 89-363 rad/s for the overall varieties and branch types. A good correlation (r 0.82) existed between the natural frequency and branch diameter in overall varieties and branch type.

The purpose of this paper is to survey the educational effects of gender sensitivity in engineering courses based on the cognition of students and faculty. For the research of nationwide scale, the data from engineering courses managed by WISET Chungbuk branch, Deakyung Gangwon Branch, Gyungnam Branch, Junbuk Branch, and Chungnam Branch were selected. The results were divided into 5 categories: gender sensitivity, interests in major, interests in job related to major, the efforts for employment of major field, the efforts for success after employment. As results, students realized lectures were important for gender sensitivity ability improvement. This means that the educational effects of the engineering courses were proved. But the courses could not change students' thought of interests in job related to major, the efforts for employment of major field, the effects for success after employment.

현대적인 프로세서들은 그 성능을 높이기 위해서 분기 예측과 같은 투기적인 방식으로 가용한 ILP 즉 명령어 수준의 병렬성을 추구한다. 전통적으로, 분기 방향은 2-단계 예측기를 사용하여 아주 높은 비율의 정확도로 예측이 가능하고, 분기 타겟 주소는 BTB를 사용하여 예측한다. 간접 분기를 제외한 모든 분기들은 그 자신의 타겟 주소가 유일하기 때문에 BTB로 거의 정확하게 예측되지만, 간접 분기는 그 타겟 주소가 동적으로 수시로 달라지기 때문에 예측하기가 매우 어렵다. 일반적으로, 분기 방향을 예측하는 기술을 간접 분기의 타겟 주소를 예측하는데 적용하여 전통적인 BTB 보다 훨씬 좋은 정확도를 얻고 있다. 본 논문에서는 간접 분기 명령과 이와 데이터 종속적인 관계를 갖고 있는 이 간접 분기 명령 보다 훨씬 앞서 수행되는 명령어의 레지스터 내용을 결합하여 간접 분기의 타겟을 예측하는 전혀 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방식의 효율성을 검증하기 위해 심플스칼라 시뮬레이터 상에서 제안된 예측기를 구현하고 SPEC 벤치마크를 시뮬레이션하여, 수시로 바뀌는 간접분기의 타겟을 거의 완벽하게 예측할 수 있음을 보이고, 기존의 다른 어떤 방법보다도 우수한 결과임을 보인다.

The purpose of this study is to analyse types and forms of branch-road in traditional korean villages. To do this, this study has selected and measured 87 branch-road cases of five traditional villages. An analysis of the case study has revealed the following results : 1. Branch-roads have four formations : 3 way, 4 way, multi-way and others. 2. Branch-roads comprise 64 percent of 3 way, 18 percent of 4 way, 8 percent of multi-way and 9 percent of others, respectively. 3. Topographic conditions have mostly affected the formation of branch-roads. 3 way of branch - roads are easily found in flat village. 4 way are multi-way of branch-road are found in semi-hilly and hilly village 4. 3 way of branch-roads have three types: T-type, Y-type, and y-type. 5. T-types are easily found in flat village, but Y-type and y-type are found in semi-hilly and hilly village. 6. Each angle of T-type is 171,99,90, respectively. It has turned out 8 degree is slightly deviated form the square. 7. Y-type of branch-road has an asymmetric form, comprising 145, 128, 87 degree of the angle, compared to 150, 150, 60 degree of symmetric one. 8. Average angles of y-type that are mostly found in hilly village are 175, 113, 72. Angle differences from each spot are 62 and 41 degree. It is assumed that 39 degree is a slope of least effort to walk. 9. 4 way of branch-roads have not only "＋" type but various types of K, Y and Y, Y and y, T and y and a foot of bird. 10. It is assumed that multi-way of branch-roads, mostly found on the middle and bottom of the hilly slope, has naturally formed to connect up and down, left and right.and right.

본 논문은 분기 예측을 지원하는 임베디드 코어 자동 생성 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 동적 분기 예측모듈에 히스토리/분기방향 flag가 추가된 BTAC(Branch Target Address Cache)를 포함하여 타겟 어플리케이션의 수행 속도를 향상 시킬 수 있도록 하였다. 시뮬레이션으로부터 해당 어플리케이션의 분기 정보를 추출하고 이를 토대로 BHT(Branch History Table)와 BTAC의 entry를 결정한다. 제안된 분기 예측의 효율성을 검증하기 위해서 동적 분기 예측 모듈을 포함하는 ARM9TDMI 코어를 SMDL로 기술하고 코어를 생성하였다. 실험 결과는 entry의 수에 따라 면적은 60%까지 증가하였고 어플리케이션의 수행 사이클과 BTAC의 miss rate는 평균 1.7%, 9.6%씩 감소하였다.

This study was conducted to analyze if there is a difference between the head hospital and branch hospital by comparing the profitability and operating expenses to patient revenue of oriental medicine hospitals affiliated with universities in order to find whether opening branch hospitals is an appropriate method to increase profitability. Profit indices used for the comparison of head hospital and branch hospital include ratio of operating profit on medical revenue, net-income on medical revenue, net profit to total assets, and operating profit to total assets; and cost indices included ratio of labor costs, material costs and administrative costs. In comparison of profit indices of head hospitals and branch hospitals, head hospitals displayed negative(-) in all four profit index averages while branch hospitals displayed positive(+), showing that branch hospitals have higher profitability. In particular, in the case of head hospitals, ratio of net profit to total assets was -13.6%, while that of branch hospitals was 12.9%, which was higher than 3.1%, the average of Korean oriental medicine hospitals in 2011. As a result of difference analysis between groups of head hospitals and branch hospitals, profit indices of ratio of operating profit on medical revenue, net-income on medical revenue, and ratio of net profit to total assets were found to vary by hospitals, but there was no statistically significant difference between head hospitals and branch hospitals(p<0.1). Only the ratio of operating profit to total assets of head hospitals and branch hospitals indicated significant difference between the two groups, showing that ratio of operating profit to total assets of branch hospitals is larger than that of head hospitals. Meanwhile, the cost indices of ratio of labor costs, material costs and administrative costs in the difference test results did not show significant difference between the head hospital and branch hospital(p<0.1). Thus, it cannot be said that a certain oriental medicine hospital's profitability is high or low depending on whether it is head hospital or a branch as profitability varies depending on the management environment of the hospital. Therefore, oriental medicine hospitals affiliated with universities would need to make efforts to increase their profitability as an individual hospital rather than focusing on whether they are head hospital or a branch.

조건부 분기 명령어는 분기 벌칙을 야기함으로써 명령어 수준의 병렬도 향상에 제약을 가한다. 고성능 슈퍼스칼라 프로세서의 등장으로 인해, 정확한 분기 예측의 중요성은 더욱 높아지고, 이를 위해 동적 분기 예측의 일종인 2단계 적응적 분기 예측(2-level adaptive branch prediction) 방식이 개발되었다. 그러나 2단계 적응적 분기 예측이 상당히 높은 예측 정확도를 보여주고 있음에도 불구하고, 정확도에 따른 비용이 기하급수적으로 증가하는 등의 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 2단계 적응적 분기 예측의 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 세트 연관 캐쉬를 이용한 캐쉬 상관 분기 예측기(cached correlated branch predictor)를 제안하고, 기존의 방식에 비해 예측의 정확도는 증가하고, 비용은 줄어든 것을 시뮬레이션을 통하여 확인한다. 세트 연관 예측기의 경우 전역과 지역 방식의 가장 좋은 예측 실패율은 각각 5.99%, 6.28%이며, 이는 종래의 2단계 적응적 분기 예측 방식에서의 가장 좋은 결과인 9.23%, 7.35%에 비해 각각 54%, 17% 향상된 결과이다.
