A 3D model based face recognition system is generally inefficient in computation time because 3D face model consists of a large number of vertices. In this paper, we propose a novel 3D face representation algorithm to reduce the number of vertices and optimize its computation time.

A load-sharing algorithm must deal with load imbalance caused by characteristics of a network and heterogeneity of nodes in Internet-based clustering systems. This paper has proposed the Efficient Load-Sharing algorithm. Efficient-Load-Sharing algorithm creates a scheduler based on the WF(Weighted Factoring) algorithm and then allocates tasks by an adaptive granularity strategy and the refined fixed granularity algorithm for better performance. In this paper, adaptive granularity strategy is that master node allocates tasks of relatively slower node to faster node and refined fixed granularity algorithm is to overlap between the time spent by slave nodes on computation and the time spent for network communication. For the simulation, the matrix multiplication using PVM is performed on the heterogeneous clustering environment which consists of two different networks. Compared to other algorithms such as Send, GSS and Weighted Factoring, the proposed algorithm results in an improvement of performance by 75%, 79% and 17%, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to establish a method for in vitro culture of C parvum isolated in Korea by determination of suitable cell model to complete development of this parasite. The result obtained were summerized as follows: 1. To determine the most suitable cell line, six types of cell line were examined by microscopy. All cell lines were infected with C parvum and showed the highest infection score in HmLu cells. 2. The staining methods including DMSO-modified acid-fast(A-F) stain, hematoxylin-eosin(H & E) stain and immunofluorescence antibody(IFA) stain were applied to examine the infection of C parvum in cell culture. These staining methods were possible to examine the infection of C parvum in cell culture. The most sensitive one was IFA staining technique. 3. Developmental stages of C parvum in HmLu cell were observed. After the initial 8 hour incubation period, some trophozoites were observed. The meronts and gametes were appeared at 24-48 hour post inoculation(PI), and oocysts were observed firstly at 48-72 hour PI. 4. In H & E stain, the parasite appeared as basophilic within parasitophorous vacuole membrane(PVM) and lying in cytoplasm at near the nucleus of the host cells. It was able to distinguish the type I, type II meronts and gametes. 5. In DMSO-modified acid-fast stain, specific stained parasites were appeared firstly after 48 hour PI. The parasites were showed with different degrees of staining bright red color within PVM. 6. The endogenous stages of parasites in HmLu cell recovered at 48, 96, 120 and 144 hour after inoculation were reacted with rabbit immunized serum in immunofluorescence antibody and avidin-biotin complex peroxidase staining technique.

This paper investigated the separation of magnetic signal from a ferro-magnetic object. The magnetic signals were ILM(induced longitudinal magnetization) and IVM(induced vertical magnetization), which were induced by earth magnetic field and PLM(permanent longitudinal magnetization) and PVM(permanent vertical magnetization), which were due to a permanent magnetization of the object, respectively. Magnetic signal separation was based on the fact that magnetization vector could be analyzed according to longitudinal and vertical directions. Also the influence of non-uniform magnetic field from a rectangular coil on the separation was examined. A military vessel with a size close to rectangular coil has more errors on the magnetic signal separation.

Since there are various networks and heterogeneity of nodes in Internet, the existing load-sharing algorithms are hardly adapted for use in Internet-based clustering systems. Therefore, in Internet-based clustering systems, a load-sharing algorithm must consider various conditions such as heterogeneity of nodes, characteristics of a network and imbalance of load, and so on. This paper has proposed an expanded-WF algorithm which is based on a WF (Weighted Factoring) algorithm for load-sharing in Internet-based clustering systems. The proposed algorithm uses an adaptive granularity strategy for load-sharing and duplicate execution of partial job for fault-tolerance. For the simulation, the to matrix multiplication using PVM is performed on the heterogeneous clustering environment which consists of two different networks. Compared to other algorithms such as Send, GSS and Weighted Factoring, the proposed algorithm results in an improvement of performance by 55%, 63% and 20%, respectively. Also, this paper shows that It can process the fault-tolerance.

3 차원 볼륨 데이터를 시각화(visualization)하기 위해서는 많은 계산 량과 메모리 량을 필요로 한다. 단일컴퓨터에서 순차 알고리즘을 이용하여 데이터를 시각화하고 분석하는 것은 실시간 응용 프로그램에는 부적합하다. 기존의 병렬 볼륨 렌더링에서의 데이터 분할 방법은 대부분 정적 로드 밸런싱(static load balancing)에 기반하고 있다. 동적 로드 밸런싱에 기반한 기존의 방법들은 불륨 데이터의 정규성(regularity)을 이용할 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 3 차원 볼륨 데이터에 대하여 로컬 태스크 큐(local task queue) 기법에 기반한 새로운 로드밸런싱 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 계산에 참여할 노드(node)들을 PVM(parallel virtual machine)의 동적 프로세스 그룹(dynamic process group: DPG)을 이용하여 정적으로 그룹화(grouping)한다. 각각의 DPG들은 로컬 태스크 큐를 기반으로 단위 서브-블록에 대하여 동적 로드 밸런싱을 수행한다. 최적화된 레이 캐스팅 알고리즘들을 분산 환경에 새롭게 적용함으로써 로드 밸런싱으로 생길 수 있는 오버 헤드를 최소화하였다.

In the present study a domain decomposition scheme using the substructuring method is developed for the computational efficiency of the finite element analysis of metal forming processes. in order to avoid calculation of an inverse matrix during the substructuring procedure, the modified Cholesky decomposition method is implemented. As obtaining the data independence by the substructuring method the program is easily paralleized using the Parallel Virtual machine(PVM) library on a work-station cluster connected on networks. A numerical example for a simple upsetting is calculated and the speed-up ratio with respect to various number of subdomains and number of processors. The efficiency of the parallel computation is discussed by comparing the results.

Among the optimization method, GA (genetic algorithm) is a very powerful searching method enough to compete with design sensitivity analysis method. GA is very easy to apply, since it dose not require any design sensitivity information. However, GA has been computationally not efficient due to huge repetitive computation. In this study, parallel computation is adopted to Improve computational efficiency, Paralleled GA is introduced on a clustered LINUX based personal computer system.

적은 비용으로 고성능 컴퓨팅 시스템을 구축하는 방법중의 하나로 클러스터링이라는 방법이 도입되어 그에 관련된 많은 연구와 방법들이 적용되고 있다. 하지만 베어울프와 같은 대표적인 기존의 고성능 연산 클러스터링의 방법은 주로 동일한 운영체제 환경에서 플러스터링 노드들의 통신에서는 MPI나 PVM등의 병렬처리용 라이브러리에 국한되어 있다. 이러한 방법은 서로 이질적인 네트워크 환경에서 특정 기능의 모듈을 동적으로 확장하거나 적용하는 것에 대해서는 사용자나 관리자의 많은 수동적인 노력을 필요로 하고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 네트워크상에서의 자바 기반의 이동 에이전트를 이용하여 서로 다른 이질적인 시스템들에 대한 확장과 이동이 용이하고 실시간 노드들의 정보를 수집하여 제안한 클러스터링 알고리즘을 적용하여 병렬처리 가능한 작업들의 분배 및 처리할 수 있는 이동 에이전트 기반의 클러스터링 시스템을 연구하였다.
