In this study, micro electrochemical machining method was introduced for accomplishment the fabrication technology of functional parts and smart structures using the Ni-Ti shape memory alloy. From the experimental result, the micro part which has very fine surface could be achieved by use of micro electrochemical process with point electrode method. Concretely, the optimal performance of micro electrochemical process in Ni-Ti SMA was obtained at the condition of approximately 100% of current efficiency and high frequency pulse current. That is, much finer surface integrity and shape memory effect can be obtained at the same condition mentioned above.

Generally, since memory chips should be tested all, considering its volume, the reduction in test time for detecting faults plays an important role in reducing the overall production cost. The parallel testing of chips in one ATE is a competitive solution to solve it. In this paper, NOC is proposed as test interface architecture between DUTs and ATE. Because NOC can be extended freely, there is no limit on the number of DUTs tested at the same time. Thus, more memory can be tested with the same bandwidth of ATE. Furthermore, the proposed NOC-based parallel test method can increase the efficiency of channel usage by packet type data transmission.

New charge pump circuits with low area and high power efficiency are proposed and verified in this paper. These pump circuits do not suffer the voltage stress higher than $V_{DD}$ across their pumping capacitors. Thus they can use the thin-oxide MOSFETs as the pumping capacitors. Using the thin-oxide capacitors can reduce the area of charge pumps greatly while keeping their driving capability. Comparing the new pump (NCP-2) with the conventional pump circuit using the thick-oxide capacitors shows that the power efficiency of NCP-2 is the same with the conventional one but the area efficiency of NCP-2 is improved as much as 71.8% over the conventional one, when the $V_{PP}/V_{DD}$ ratio is 3.5 and $V_{DD}$=1.8V.

Over the past several decades, embedded system and flight control computer technologies have been evolved to meet the diverse needs of the mobile device market. Current embedded systems are at the heart of technologies that can take advantage of small-sized specialized hardware while still providing high-efficiency performance at low cost. One of these key technologies is multiple memory banks. For example, a dual memory bank can provide two times more memory bandwidth in the same memory space. This benefit take lower cost to provide the same bandwidth. However, there is still few software technologies to support the efficient use of multiple memory banks. In this study, we present a technique to efficiently exploit multiple memory banks by software support. Specifically, our technique use an interference graph to optimally allocate data to different memory banks by an optimizing compiler. As a result, the execution time can be improved upto 7% with the proposed technique.

최신 GPU는 프로세서 내부에 포함된 다수의 코어를 활용하여 높은 병렬처리가 가능하다. GPU의 높은 병렬성을 활용하는 기법 중 하나인 GPGPU 구조는 GPU에서 대부분의 CPU의 작업을 처리가 가능하게 해주며, GPU의 높은 병렬성과 하드웨어자원을 효과적으로 활용할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 벤치마크 프로그램을 활용하여 CTA(Cooperative Thread Array) 할당 개수 변화에 따른 메모리 효율성과 성능을 분석하고자 한다. 실험결과, CTA 할당 개수 증가에 따라 다수의 벤치마크 프로그램에서 성능이 향상되었지만, 일부 벤치마크 프로그램에서는 CTA 할당 개수 증가에 따른 성능 향상이 발생하지 않았다. 이러한 이유로는 벤치마크 프로그램에서 생성된 CTA 개수가 적거나 동시에 수행할 수 있는 CTA 개수가 정해져 있기 때문으로 판단된다. 또한, 각 벤치마크 프로그램별로 메모리 채널 정체에 따른 메모리 스톨, 내부연결망 정체에 따른 메모리 스톨, 파이프라인의 메모리 단계에서 발생하는 스톨을 분석하여 성능과의 연관성을 파악하였다. 본 연구의 분석결과는 GPGPU 구조의 병렬성 및 메모리 효율성 향상을 위한 연구에 대한 정보로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

A RVLC(Reversible Variable Length Code) with an efficient table memory is proposed in this paper. In the conventional decoding methods, the weight of symbols and code values are used for the decoding table. These methods can be applied for Huffman decoding. In VLC decoding, many studies have been done for memory efficiency and decoding speed. We propose an improved table construction method for general VLC and RVLC decoding, which uses the transition number of bits within a symbol with an enhanced weight decomposition. In this method, tile table for RVLC decoding can be implemented with a smaller memory

Ultra wideband (UWB) system is one of the promising solutions for future short-range communication which has recently received a great attention by many researchers. In this paper, we proposed 128-point low power FFT structure based on the memory for UWB systems. The proposed structure can improve implementation area and power consumption efficiency as it consists of one of the butterfly PE and a little memory.

This paper presents the experimental results on the 3-electrode DC-PDP which has a common electrode to improve the PDP life cycle. The measured DC characteristic proves the effectiveness of common electrode absorbing about half of discharge currents. The waveforms for pulse memory operation of3-electrode PDP without crosstalk could also be determined from the I-V characteristics. The pulse memory drives of 8*8 cell array show the frequency response fo memory margin and the luminance efficiency of 3-electrode PDP are quite different from genrally known characteristics of 2-electrode DC-PDP.

In this paper, we develop a nonmonotone spectral memory gradient method for unconstrained optimization, where the spectral stepsize and a class of memory gradient direction are combined efficiently. The global convergence is obtained by using a nonmonotone line search strategy and the numerical tests are also given to show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

고해상도 비디오에 대한 압축 성능 향상을 위해 내부 연산 비트 깊이를 증가시키는 IBDI (Internal Bit Depth Increase) 기법은 괄목할 만한 부호화 효율 증가 이득을 얻을 수 있었지만, 참조 영상을 저장하기 위해 소요되는 내부 메모리가 증가하는 문제가 발생한다. 따라서 IBDI 기법의 부호화 효율은 유지하면서 내부 메모리 증가 문제를 해결하기 위해 메모리 압축 기법이 제안되었다. 기존 메모리 압축 기법은 영상의 각 수행블록마다 일정량의 부가정보를 이용하여 메모리 압축을 수행함으로써, 부호화 효율은 유지하면서 내부 메모리를 성공적으로 줄일 수 있었다. 하지만 각각의 수행블록마다 발생하는 부가정보에 의해 메모리 압축 성능이 제한되는 한계가 존재한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존 메모리 압축 방법의 한계를 극복하기 위해, 발생하는 부가정보량을 크게 줄일 수 있도록 선택적 수행블록 병합을 이용한 메모리 압축 방법을 제안하였다. 제안 방법을 통해 부호화 효율을 기존 메모리 압축 방법과 동일하게 유지하면서 메모리 압축에 의해 발생하는 부가정보량은 크게 감소하는 이득을 얻을 수 있었다.
