In this paper, a simple digital control scheme for the single/parallel module buck converters is proposed using a digital state feedback control method. The discrete state feedback controller structure for the robust tracking control is derived by using the error state. The proposed control system can precisely achieve the interleaved current sharing and the output regulation, and can achieve the systematical controller design for a given converter specification using the pole placement technique. For a design example, the single module buck converter is simulated using the MATLAB Simulink software and two 100W parallel module buck converters with a TMS320F2812 DSP is implemented.

PLC(programmable logic controller) system is widely used for the control of factory. PLC system receives ladder diagram which is drawn by the user to implement hardware logic, converts the ladder diagram into sequence program which is executable in the PLC system, and executes the sequence program indefinitely unless user breaks. The sequence program processes the data of on/off signal, and endures 1 scan delay and missing of pulse-type signal shorter than a scan time. So, data dependency doesn't exist. By applying theis characteristics to multiprocessor architecture, we design parellel PLC functionally and evaluate performance upgrade. Parallel PLC consists of central processing module, N general processing unit, and a shared memory by master-slave type. Each module executes allocated sequence program by the control of central processing module. We can expect performance upgrade by parallel processing, and reliability by relocation of sequence program when error occurs in processing module.

This paper proposes parallel operation method of single phase UPS module considering the battery SOC. A master module performs output voltage control and current sharing algorithm considering battery SOC of each UPS modules. The slave modules control output current by current reference from master module. The applied parallel operation method is verified by the PSIM simulation.

The purpose of this study was to develop a cooler/heater using a thermoelectric module combined with a parallel flow type oscillating heat pipe with R-142b as a work ing fluid. The experiment was performed for 16 thermoelectric modules (6 A/15 V, size: 40${\times}$40${\times}$4 mm), varying design parameters of the heat pipe (inclination angle, working fluid charging ratio, etc) . Experimental results indicate that the optimum charging ratio and the inclination angle of the parallel flow type oscillating heat pipe were 30% by volume and 30%, respectively. The maximum cooler/heater capacity were 479W (COP : 0.47) and 630W (COP : 0.9), respectively.

The purpose of this study was to develop a cooler/heater using a thermoelectric module combined with a parallel flow type pulsating heat pipe with R-142b as a working fluid. The experiment was performed for 16 thermoelectric modules (6A/15V, size: $40\times40\times4mm$), varying design parameters of the heat pipe (inclination angle, working fluid charging ratio, etc.). Experimental results indicate that the optimum charging ratio and the inclination angle of the parallel flow type pulsating heat pipe were $30\%$ by volume and $30^{\circ}$, respectively. The maximum cooler/heater capacity were 479 W (COP: 0.47) and 630 W (COP: 0.9), respectively.

A new phase shift PWM parallel-input/series-output modularized dual converter is proposed in this paper. This converter is operated with a fixed duty ratio and its output voltage is regulated by phase shift between each module. Since the operating duty ratio of each module is fixed it is sufficient to implement a simple open loop drive circuitry for each module and the cost of total system can be much reduced. The operation of the converter is analyzed in this paper and verified by computer simulation.

This paper describes localization of autonomous underwater vehicles(AUV), which can be used when some navigation sensor data are an outlier. In that situation, localization through existing navigation algorithms causes problems in long-range localization. Even if an outlier sensor data occurs once, problems of localization will continue. Also, if outlier sensor data is related to azimuth (direction of AUV), it causes bigger problems. Therefore, a parallel localization module, in which different algorithms are performed in a normal and abnormal situation should be designed. Before designing a parallel localization module, it is necessary to study an effective method in the abnormal situation. So, we propose a localization method through machine learning. For this method, a learning model consists of only Fully-Connected and trains through randomly contaminated real sea data. The ground truth of training is displacement between subsequent GPS data. As a result, average error in localization through the learning model is 0.4 times smaller than the average error in localization through the existing navigation algorithm. Through this result, we conclude that it is suitable for a component of the parallel localization module.

In general, for a large power system like DC distribution system for buildings, several power converters are modularized for parallel operation. However, in parallel operation, inconsistency of parameters in each module causes circulating current in the whole system. Circulating current is directly related to loss, and, therefore, it is most important for the safety of the power system to supply the suitable current to each module. This paper proposes a control method to reduce circulating current caused during parallel operation. Accordingly, the validity of parallel operation system including response characteristics and normal state was verified by simulation and experiment result.

This paper proposes the configuration of photovoltaic(PV) module considering the environment conditions of the PV system. The PV system is consisted of the series-parallel connection of the PV module. When shadows or changes of the radiation or an electrical characteristic in the solar cell are happened to PV system, the serious power loss will occur. If the PV module connected in series has the shadows, the output current is restricted to current of shaded PV module. Also if shadow is occurred to the parallel connection PV module, the output voltage is limited to voltage of shaded PV module. These problems are caused power loss. Therefore, this paper proposes the method that makes the output power of the PV module equalize by reconfiguration of PV module using the switching considering these environment conditions. A validity of the method proposed in this paper proves through comparing with performance of conventional PV module.

This paper is concerned with development of a communication module of POFS(Parallel Operating File System), which is the parallel file system to be operated on SPAX computer. SPAX is multiprocessor computer with clustering SMP architecture and being developed by ETRI. The operating system for SPAX is MISIX based on the Chorus microkernel. POFS has client/server architecture basically so that it is important to design a communication module. The communication module is so easily affected by network environment that bad design is the major reason that decreases the portability and performance of the parallel file system. This paper describes the structure and performance of the communication of the POFS. the theme is issued in the course of designing and developing POFS. The communication module of POFS was designed to support the portability and the architecture of parallel file system.
