This thesis proposes an automatic instruction extension system that utilizes retargetable compiler, based on MDL, to design an ASIP optimized for application. The proposed system uses information gathered from the application program to find all possible expandable instruction candidates. Expandable instruction candidates acquire the realization characteristics through hardware library. The system chooses instruction set and optimizes processor structure satisfying constraints on the bases of hardware characteristics and increase in execution speed. To confirm the efficiency of the proposed system, automatic instruction extension system was performed using various benchmark applications. The proposed system acquired optimized instruction set and processor structure, which are expanded from the commercial version of ARM9TDMI. Experimental results show that number of execution cycle has been reduced by 33.5% when compared to conventional version of ARM9TDMI, while area has been slightly increased.

In this paper, a study on optimization of three dimensional multi-layered metallic disk array structure(MDAS) excited by circular waveguides was performed to shape efficient flat-topped element patterns(FTEP) of ${\pm}$20$^{\circ}$ beam width. Each radiating element of the MDAS is composed of input, transition and radiation circular waveguides and finite metal disks stacked on radiation circular waveguide. It has an array structure of a hexagonal lattice appropriate for the conical beam scanning. The analytic algorithm for the MDAS was proposed and the code was also programmed using it. Optimal design parameters of the MDAS were determined through the optimal simulation process to obtain ${\pm}$20$^{\circ}$ FTEP. Also, bandwidth characteristics for FTEP and reflection coefficients of the MDAS were investigated and, as the results, it was shown that the MDAS could shape good FTEPs of ${\pm}$20$^{\circ}$ beam width in main planes at least within a 5.6 % frequency band.

Wheel for passenger car support the car weight with tires, and they transmit rolling and braking power into the ground. Whittling away at wheel weight is more effective to boost fuel economy than lighting vehicle body structure. A shape of hole in disk is optimized for minimizing the weight of steel wheel. Pro/ENGINEER program is used for formulating the design model, and ANSYS package is selected for analyzing the design model. It has difficulties to interface these commercial software directly. For Combining both programs, response surface methodology is applied to construct approximation functions for maximum stresses and maximum displacements are obtained by full factorial design of five levels. This steel wheel is modeled in 14-inch diameter of rim, and wide parameter of hole in disk is only selected as design variable for reducing the weight of steel whee. PLBA(Pshenichny-Lim-Belegundu-Arora) algorithm, which used the second-order information in the direction finding problem and uses the active set strategy, is used for solving optimization problems.

Determination of ultrasonic frequency and experimental design approach to optimization of ultrasonic soil-washing process for remediation of diesel contaminated soil were investigated. Ultrasonic frequencies of 35, 72, and 100 kHz were used for determination of optimal frequency. $MINITAB^{(R)}$ program was used for experimental design of optimal washing condition. The optimal ultrasonic frequency was 35 kHz. Even though the number of cavitation bubble is little, however cavitation bubbles involving larger energy compared with high frequency was generated. Therefore, the removal efficiency at low frequency was higher than at high frequency. However the input energy has to be considered when the process is applied. The statistical tests from a factorial experiment shows that the application of ultrasound and mechanical mixing are the most important factor for design of an ultrasonic soil washing process. The lab-scale experiments are required to get the optimal condition of ultrasound and mechanical mixing for application of ultrasonic soil washing process.

In this paper, we design an 8-bit eSuse OTP (one-time programmable) memory in consideration of EM (electro-migration) and eFuse resistance variation based on a $0.18{\mu}m$ generic process, which is used for an analog trimming application. First, we use an external program voltage to increase the program power applied an eFuse. Secondly, we apply a scheme of precharging BL to VSS prior to RWL (read word line) activation and optimize read NMOS transistors to reduce the read current flowing through a non-programmed cell. Thirdly, we design a sensing margin test circuit with a variable pull-up load out of consideration for the eFuse resistance variation of a programmed eFuse. Finally, we increase program yield of eFuse OTP memory by splitting the length of an eFuse link.

Cable drum schedule is the final step for the electrical equipment of the power plant, and is assigned cables to efficiently cable drum. In this paper, we have implemented an automated program which cables are scheduled in accordance with the capacity of the cable drum for each cable code. Proposed cable drum schedule was applied to the dynamic programming algorithm to effectively solve the optimization problem, and the implemented program is conducted so as to verify the proposed model. The experiment results show that implemented program eliminates the errors that can occur existing method, so we were able to reduce the design time of cable drum schedule. Cables for the electrical equipment of the power plant is designed to at least 2 million units or more. Thus the automation program to provide applies, it is considered that the design time of the cable drum schedule can be greatly reduced without serious error.

As there are so many uncertainties associated with using the determinism analysis method in the design of rubble mound breakwater, it is impossible for a designed construction to provide ultimate stability. First of all, due to the uncertainty of Load and Resistance, a safety level concerning the destruction mode of construction must be given. Then, the optimization design should be processed. After all, we can say that it is a more reasonable design method than the design used by the stability rate. In this study, an established design process is accomplished using Hudson's equation and an economic analysis with the breakwater's section is also conducted. Hudson's equation is compared to Van der Meer's equation. These results are utilized to drop a damage rate, increase the stability of construction, and determine the optimization section of the breakwater.

본 논문에서는 충돌하중 하에서 스페이스 프레임을 사용하는 경주용 차량의 프레임에 작용하는 응력을 분석한다. 충돌 시 운전자의 안전을 확보하고 변형을 최소한으로 줄이며, 최적화 설계를 통하여 중량을 감소시키고 취약부분을 파악한다. 탄소강의 물성치를 바탕으로 트러스 구조로 설계된 차량 프레임의 유한요소모델을 만들고, ANSYS 프로그램을 사용하여 정면, 측면, 후면 방향의 충돌로 인하여 프레임에 작용하는 응력을 해석한다. 정면 및 후면충돌에서는 운전석에 가해지는 영향이 적지만, 측면충돌에서는 영향을 많이 받아 가장 취약한 부분이다. 이러한 취약부분의 보강을 통하여 프레임의 안전성 설계를 증진시키고 시뮬레이션 해석의 결과를 실제 프레임 제작에 활용한다.

This paper proposes an optimal design software for the open-chain dynamic systems whose governing equations are expressed as differential equation. In this software, an input module and an automatic creation module of the equation of motion are developed to contrive the user's convenience. To analyze the equation of motion of the dynamic systems, variable-order and variable-stepsize Adams-Bashforth-Moulton predictor-corrector method is used to improve the efficiency. For the optimization and the design sensitivity analysis, ALM(augmented lagrange multiplier)method and adjoint variable method are adopted respectively. An output module with which the user can compare and investigate the analysis and the optimization results through tables and graphs is also provided. The developed software is applied to three typical dynamic response optimization problems, and the results compare very well with those available in the literature, demonstrating its effectiveness.

This study is conserned for the optimum design of reinforced concrete slab-beam-column structures with multi-storys and multi-bays by Direct Method. Flexural and shear strength, sectional size, and steel ratio etc., were considered as the design-constraints and the cost function was taken as to objective function. They became high degree nonlinear problems. Using SLP as an analytical method of nonlinear optimal problems, an optimal algorithm was developed in this study and the algorithm was applied to the optimization of reinforced concrete structure system of 5 storys. The result converged to a optimal solution with 3 to 5 iterations, and proved that economical design could be possible when compared with conventional designs.
