  • 본 논문에서는 GIS 관련 연산을 실시간에 효율적으로 처리하기 위한 분산공유메모리 기반 병렬처리 시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문의 분산공유메모리 시스템은 메시지전달 방식의 분산메모리 MIMD 컴퓨터 상에 소프트웨어 기반 분산공유메모리 모듈을 탑재함으로써 구현되었다. 또한 GIS 연산의 기본이 되는 공간 객체를 공유의 기본 단위로 설정하고, GIS 데이타의 특성을 반영하여 읽기전용 공유데이타 타입을 추가하였으며, 네트워크 오버헤드를 줄이기 위하여 복수의 객체를 한번에 읽어오는 bulk access가 가능하도록 하였다. 본 시스템에서는 GIS 데이타의 효율적인 분배를 위하여 부하균등화 기법으로 guided self scheduling을 사용하였다. 실험결과 본 시스템은 네트워크 캐쉬의 효율적인 활용을 통하여 소프트웨어 기반 분산메모리 시스템의 오버헤드에도 불구하고 MPI 기반 메시지전달 방식에 비하여 향상된 성능을 얻을 수 있었다.Abstract In this paper, we propose a distributed shared memory(DSM) based parallel processing system to process GIS related computations efficiently in real time. The system is based on a software DSM module implemented on top of a distributed MIMD computer. In the DSM system, spatial object, which is a fundamental structure to represent GIS data, is used as a basic unit for sharing, and a read-only shared data type is added to reflect the characteristics of GIS data. In addition, a bulk access to multiple shared data is made possible to reduce the network overhead. A guided self scheduling method is devised for efficient load balancing in distributing GIS data to parallel processors. The experimental results show that the DSM system performs better than an MPI based message-passing system through the efficient utilization of network cache in spite of the system's software overhead.

  • The islanding detection for distributed resources (DR) becomes an important and emerging issue in power system protection since the distributed generator installations are rapidly increasing and most of the installed systems are interconnected with distribution network. In order to avoid the negative impacts from islanding operations of DR on protection, operation and management of distribution system, it is necessary to effectively detect the islanding operations of DR and rapidly disconnect it from distribution network. Generally, it is difficult to detect islanding operation by monitoring only one system parameter This paper presents a new logic based islanding detection method for distributed resources(DR) which are interconnected with distribution network. The proposed method detects the islanding operation by monitoring four system parameter: voltage variation, phase displacement, frequency variation, and the variation of total harmonic distortion(THD) of current; therefore, it effectively detects island operation of DR unit operating in parallel with the distribution network. We also verified the efficiency of the proposed algorithm using the radial distribution network of IEEE 34 bus model.

  • The paper describes a new approach to the organization of an artificial brain for mobile multi-robot systems, where individual robots are not considered as independent entities, but rather forming together a universal parallel and distributed machine capable of processing both information and physical matter in distributed worlds. This spatial machine, operating without any central control, is driven on top by distributed mission scenarios in WAVE-WP language. The scenarios can be written on a variety of levels, and any mixture of them, supporting the needed system flexibility and freedom ...

  • In this study, a parallel performance of CUPID-code has been investigated for both Ethernet and Infiniband network system to examine the effect of cache memory and network-speed. Bi-conjugate gradient solver of CUPID-code has been parallelised by using domain decomposition method and message passing interface (MPI). It is shown that the parallel performance of Ethernet-network system is worse than that of Infiniband-network system due to the slow network-speed and a small cache memory. It is also found that the parallel performance of each system deteriorates for a small problem due to the communication overhead, but the performance of Infiniband-network system is better than Ethernet-network system due to a much faster network-speed. For a large problem, the parallel performance depends less on network system.

  • In order to create an environment for Apache Hadoop for parallel distributed processing system of Bigdata, by connecting a plurality of computers, or to configure the node, using the configuration of the virtual nodes on a single computer it is necessary to build a cloud fading environment.

  • This study proposes a distributed parallel processing system, called the Fast Analysis System for remote sensing daTa(FAST), for large-scale satellite image processing and analysis. FAST is a system that designs jobs in vertices and sequences, and distributes and processes them simultaneously. FAST manages data based on the Hadoop Distributed File System, controls entire jobs based on Apache Spark, and performs tasks in parallel in multiple slave nodes based on a docker container design. FAST enables the high-performance processing of progressively accumulated large-volume satellite images. Because the unit task is performed based on Docker, it is possible to reuse existing source codes for designing and implementing unit tasks. Additionally, the system is robust against software/hardware faults. To prove the capability of the proposed system, we performed an experiment to generate the original satellite images as ortho-images, which is a pre-processing step for all image analyses. In the experiment, when FAST was configured with eight slave nodes, it was found that the processing of a satellite image took less than 30 sec. Through these results, we proved the suitability and practical applicability of the FAST design.

  • Simulated annealing is an attractive, but expensive, heuristic method for approximating the solution to combinatorial optimization problems. Attempts to parallel simulated annealing, particularly on distributed memory multicomputers, are hampered by the algorithm's requirement of a globally consistent system state. In a multicomputer, maintaining the global state S involves explicit message traffic and is a critical performance bottleneck. To mitigate this bottleneck, it becomes necessary to amortize the overhead of these state updates over as many parallel state changes as possible. By using this technique, errors in the actual cost C(S) of a particular state S will be introduced into the annealing process. This paper places analytically derived bounds on this error in order to assure convergence to the correct optimal result. The resulting parallel simulated annealing algorithm dynamically changes the frequency of global updates as a function of the annealing control parameter, i.e. temperature. Implementation results on an Intel iPSC/2 are reported.

  • We discuss the direct methods (Gauss-Jordan and Gaussian eliminations) to solve linear systems on distributed memory parallel computers. It will be shown that the so-called row-cyclic storage gives rise to the best performance among the standard three (row-cyclic, column-cyclic and cyclic-cyclic) data storages. We also show that Gauss-Jordan elimination, rather than Gaussian elimination, is highly efficient for the direct solution of linear systems in parallel processing, though Gauss-Jordan elimination requires a larger number of arithmetic operations than Gaussian elimination. Numerical experiment is performed on HITACHI SR12201 with the standard libraries MPI and BLAS.

  • There is a growing demand on remotely sensed and GIS data services in modern society. However, conventional WEB applications based on client/server pattern can not meet the criteria in the future . Grid computing provides a promising resolution for establishing spatial information system toward future applications. Here, a new architecture of the distributed environment for remotely sensed data processing based on the middleware technology was proposed. In addition, in order to utilize the new environment, a problem had to be algorithmically expressed as comprising a set of concurrently executing sub-problems or tasks. Experiment of the algorithm was implemented, and the results show that the new environmental can achieve high speedups for applications compared with conventional implementation.
