멀티미디어와 인터넷의 대중화가 야기한 급격한 데이터의 증가는 테라(Tera)바이트 이상의 대용량 저장공간과 대용량 정보의 효율적인 공유를 지원하는 스토리지 시스템을 요구하고 있으며 이를 위하여 SAN 기반의 스토리지 클러스터링 시스템들이 많이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 환경에서 하드웨어 또는 소프트웨어 RAID(Redundant Array of Independent Disks)는 대용량 정보의 고성능의 입출력과 신뢰성을 위해서 필수적이 되었다. 범용적인 RAID로는 RAE-0, RAID-1, RAID-5가 주로 사용되고 있으며 각각의 레벨은 장단점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 RAID-0와 RAID-1이 갖는 문제점들의 보완을 위하여 변형된 RAID 레벨인 RAID-SM을 제안한다. RAID-SM은 기존의 RAID-1이 가지는 데이터의 가용성을 유지하면서 추가적인 비용 없이 RAID-0의 우수한 입출력 성능을 얻기 위한 RAID-1의 변형된 방식이다. RAID-SM의 구현을 위하여 디스크상의 데이터의 배치 및 데이터 맵핑 탕식을 정의하고 RAID-SM에서의 I/O방법을 기술한다. 제안하는 RAID-SM은 멀티미디어나 GIS 데이터와 같은 읽기 연산 집약적인 시스템을 대상으로 하는 안정적인 레이드 방식이며 RAID-SM의 장점 및 성능은 본 논문에서의 실험을 통한 결과로서 제시한다.

The extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometric (EFPI) optical fiber sensor shows good sensitivity and resolution, and has many advantages over optical fiber sensors of other types. However, this EFPI optical fiber sensor has a disadvantage that the distinction of measuring directions is difficult due to the measurement method by using only fringe counting. In this paper, the transmission-type extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometric (TEFPI) optical fiber sensor was developed, which has been improved by the additional function and whose measuring system is different from that of the conventional EFPI optical fiber sensor. Then the application result of the TEFPI optical fiber sensor to the strain and temperature measurement was explained in detail.

In this paper, a structural analysis for the pressurized water reactor(PWR) spent nuclear fuel disposal canister which is deposited under the 500m deep underground is carried out to predict the creep deformation of the canister while the underground water and swelling bentonite pressure are applied on the canister. Usually the creep deformation may be caused due to the Pressure and the high heat applied to the canister even though additional external loads are not applied to the canister. These creep deformations depend on the time. In this paper, oかy the underground water and bentonite swelling Pressure are considered for the creep deformation analysis of the canister, because the heat distribution inside canister due the spent fuel is not simple and depends on time. A proper creep function is adopted for the creep analysis. The creep analysis is carried out during $10^8$ seconds. The creep analysis results show that the creep strains are very small and these strains occur usually in the lid and bottom of the canister not in the cast iron insert. A much smaller strain is found in the cast iron insert. Hence, the creep deformation doesn't affect the structural safety of the canister, and also the creep stress which shows the stress relaxation phenomenon doesn't affect the structural safety of the canister.

The shell due to the effect of initial normal pressures on the shell surface was based on the assumption that the directions of the pressures are always normal to the undeformed shell surface, and that the change in the surface area of the shell is negligible. But the fact that the pressure are always normal to the deforming surface leads "follower force". The follower effect in the analysis can significantly alter the solution for natural frequency and buckling load as compared to the case when the direction of the pressures are assumed to be normal to the uniform shell surface. The expression for the part of strain energy contribution from normal pressure due to the effect of follower force was derived and added to the element stiffness matrix of axisymmetric shell. In the case of increasing external pressure, the natural frequencies decrease until one of them reaches zero. Theoretically the smallest applied load that reduces the frequency of any mode to zero, will have same magnitude as that of the buckling load. In order to determine the bucking load of the shell a few sets of frequencies are computed and the results considering the follower effects are well with the exact solution while the case without that are quite different. But in case of hemispherical dome, there are little difference in buckling pressure between with and without the effect of follower force.

Recently, competition between companies has intensified and so has the necessity of creating a new business value inventions has increased. A numbers of Business organizations are beginning to realize the importance of business process management. Processes however can often not go the way they were initially designed or non-efficient performance process model could be designed. This can be due to a lack of cooperation and understanding between business analysts and system developers. To solve this problem, business process mining which can be used as the basis of the business process re-engineering has been recognized to an important concept. Current process mining research has only focused their attention on extracting workflow-based process model from competed process logs. Thus there have a limitations in expressing various forms of business processes. The disadvantage in this method is process discovering time and log scanning time in itself take a considerable amount of time. This is due to the re-scanning of the process logs with each new update. In this paper, we will presents a modified FP-Tree algorithm for FP-Tree based business processes, which are used for association analysis in data mining. Our modified algorithm supports the discovery of the appropriate level of process model according to the user's need without re-scanning the entire process logs during updated.

Torsional behavior of concrete pavement slabs due to temperature and moisture effects is constrained by self weight and friction etc, and causes stress as the result. The stress due to humidity variation in the slab is difficult to calculate while that due to temperature variation can easily be calculated by a commercial structural analysis program. Thus, the slab behavior can be predicted more accurately if the humidity effect is converted to equivalent temperature and is used as an input of structural analysis. In this study, a concrete pavement slab was constructed and strains of the slab due to environmental loadings were measured for long-term period. Thermal strains were subtracted from the measured strains by using thermal expansion coefficient of the concrete measured in a laboratory. Shrinkage strains, the remained strains, was supposed as additional thermal strains to calculate imaginary temperature with equivalent effect of the shrinkage by dividing the shrinkage with the thermal expansion coefficient. An existing shrinkage model was modified by considering the self weight and friction to be used in another model which can convert differential shrinkage between top and bottom of the slab to equivalent temperature difference. Addition research efforts on tensile stress reduction according to steady increase in the compressive strains are warranted for more accurate stress calculation.

Recently, processor performance has been improved dramatically. Unfortunately, as the process technology scales down, energy consumption in a processor increases significantly whereas the processor performance continues to improve. Moreover, peak temperature in the processor increases dramatically due to the increased power density, resulting in serious thermal problem. For this reason, performance, energy consumption and thermal problem should be considered together when designing up-to-date processors. This paper proposes three modified filter cache schemes to alleviate the thermal problem in the filter cache, which is one of the most energy-efficient design techniques in the hierarchical memory systems : Bypass Filter Cache (BFC), Duplicated Filter Cache (DFC) and Partitioned Filter Cache (PFC). BFC scheme enables the direct access to the L1 cache when the temperature on the filter cache exceeds the threshold, leading to reduced temperature on the filter cache. DFC scheme lowers temperature on the filter cache by appending an additional filter cache to the existing filter cache. The filter cache for PFC scheme is composed of two half-size filter caches to lower the temperature on the filter cache by reducing the access frequency. According to our simulations using Wattch and Hotspot, the proposed partitioned filter cache shows the lowest peak temperature on the filter cache, leading to higher reliability in the processor.

This paper presents the results of an experiment comparing the current circular CFT columns and circular CFT columns that were additionally confined by carbon fiber sheets (CFS) under axial loading. The main experimental parameters are the numbers of CFS layers and the diameter-to-thickness ratio. 10 specimens were prepared according to the experimental parameter plans, and axial compression tests were conducted. From the tests, the failure procedure, load-axial deformation curve, maximum axial strength, and deformation capacity of the CFT columns and confined CFT columns were compared. The test results showed that the maximum axial strengths of CFT columns additionally confined by CFS are increased higher than those of the current CFT columns, and that local buckling can be delayed due to the confinement effect of CFS.

The needs for enlargement of width of existing embankment have been increasing due to heavy traffic and large amount of transporting goods. In this study, it was intended to derive formula for estimating vertical stress induced by additional embankment. Theoretical background for handling plain strain problem was investigated. It can be seen that stress function considered in the analysis was justifiable for compatibility and boundary condition. Notes for using derived formula were also considered.
