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.

Increasing the operation rate of components and stabilizing the operation through timely management of the core parts are crucial for improving the efficiency of the railroad maintenance industry. The demand for diagnosis technology to assess the condition of rolling stock components, which employs history management and automated big data analysis, has increased to satisfy both aspects of increasing reliability and reducing the maintenance cost of the core components to cope with the trend of rapid maintenance. This study developed a big data platform-based system to manage the rolling stock component condition to acquire, process, and analyze the big data generated at onboard and wayside devices of railroad cars in real time. The system can monitor the conditions of the railroad car component and system resources in real time. The study also proposed a machine learning technique that enabled the distributed and parallel processing of the acquired big data and automatic component fault diagnosis. The test, which used the virtual instance generation system of the Amazon Web Service, proved that the algorithm applying the distributed and parallel technology decreased the runtime and confirmed the fault diagnosis model utilizing the random forest machine learning for predicting the condition of the bearing and wheel parts with 83% accuracy.

Purpose: Conventional image reconstruction uses simplified physical models of projection. However, real physics, for example 3D reconstruction, takes too long time to process all the data in clinic and is unable in a common reconstruction machine because of the large memory for complex physical models. We suggest the realistic distributed memory model of fast-reconstruction using parallel processing on personal computers to enable large-scale technologies. Materials and Methods: The preliminary tests for the possibility on virtual manchines and various performance test on commercial super computer, Tachyon were performed. Expectation maximization algorithm with common 2D projection and realistic 3D line of response were tested. Since the process time was getting slower (max 6 times) after a certain iteration, optimization for compiler was performed to maximize the efficiency of parallelization. Results: Parallel processing of a program on multiple computers was available on Linux with MPICH and NFS. We verified that differences between parallel processed image and single processed image at the same iterations were under the significant digits of floating point number, about 6 bit. Double processors showed good efficiency (1.96 times) of parallel computing. Delay phenomenon was solved by vectorization method using SSE. Conclusion: Through the study, realistic parallel computing system in clinic was established to be able to reconstruct by plenty of memory using the realistic physical models which was impossible to simplify.

Cloud computing emerges as a new computing paradigm which targets reliable and customizable services. The term builds on decades of research in virtual machine, distributed and parallel computing, utility computing, and more recently networking, web service, and software as a service. In this paper, we provide a seamless connection migration of web services. This is useful for cloud computing environment in which many client terminals have mobility. With the wireless internet facility, those mobile users can move place to place during internet communication. Therefore, we provide solutions to the two major problems in current virtualization based migration: communication failure problems and connection re-establishment. Communication channel flushing by zero window notification helps to resolve the communication failure problems and TCP port inheritance prevents connection re-establishment errors during socket reconstruction. Thus, our web service migration facility is now able to preserve open network connections, and even for server sockets. This is a highly transparent approach, in that we did not Introduce additional messages for channel flushing and did not make any modification to the TCP protocol stack. Experimental results show that the overhead due to connection migration of web services is almost negligible when compared with time to take the conventional web service migration.

Virtualization technology has been widely applied in the area of computer security research that provides a new method for system protection. It has been a hotspot in system security research at present. Virtualization technology brings new risk as well as progress to computer operating system (OS). A multi-level perception security model using virtualization is proposed to deal with the problems of over-simplification of risk models, unreliable assumption of secure virtual machine monitor (VMM) and insufficient integration with virtualization technology in security design. Adopting the enhanced isolation mechanism of address space, the security perception units can be protected from risk environment. Based on parallel perceiving by the secure domain possessing with the same privilege level as VMM, a mechanism is established to ensure the security of VMM. In addition, a special pathway is set up to strengthen the ability of information interaction in the light of making reverse use of the method of covert channel. The evaluation results show that the proposed model is able to obtain the valuable risk information of system while ensuring the integrity of security perception units, and it can effectively identify the abnormal state of target system without significantly increasing the extra overhead.

Scheduling user-submitted cloud tasks to the appropriate virtual machine (VM) in cloud computing is critical for cloud providers. However, as the demand for cloud resources from user tasks continues to grow, current evolutionary algorithms (EAs) cannot satisfy the optimal solution of large-scale cloud task scheduling problems. In this paper, we first construct a large- scale multi-objective cloud task problem considering the time and cost functions. Second, a multi-objective optimization algorithm based on multi-factor optimization (MFO) is proposed to solve the established problem. This algorithm solves by decomposing the large-scale optimization problem into multiple optimization subproblems. This reduces the computational burden of the algorithm. Later, the introduction of the MFO strategy provides the algorithm with a parallel evolutionary paradigm for multiple subpopulations of implicit knowledge transfer. Finally, simulation experiments and comparisons are performed on a large-scale task scheduling test set on the CloudSim platform. Experimental results show that our algorithm can obtain the best scheduling solution while maintaining good results of the objective function compared with other optimization algorithms.

Multithreaded models improve the efficiency of parallel systems by combining inner parallelism, asynchronous data availability and the locality of von Neumann model. This model executes thread code which is generated by compiler and of which quality is given by the method of generation. But multithreaded models have the demerit that execution model is restricted to a specific platform. On the contrary, Java has the platform independency, so if we can translate from threads code to Java bytecode, we can use the advantages of multithreaded models in many platforms. Java executes Java bytecode which is intermediate language format for Java virtual machine. Java bytecode plays a role of an intermediate language in translator and Java virtual machine work as back-end in translator. But, Java bytecode which is translated from multithreaded models have the demerit that it is not secure. This paper, multhithread code whose feature of platform independent can execute in java virtual machine. We design and implement translator which translate from thread code of multithreaded code to Java bytecode and which check secure problems from Java bytecode.

Dalvik is a virtual machine (VM) that is designed to run Java-based Android applications. A trace-based just-in-time (JIT) compilation technique is currently employed to improve performance of the Dalvik VM. However, due to runtime compilation overhead, the trace-based JIT compiler provides only a few simple optimizations. Moreover, because each trace contains only a few instructions, the trace-based JIT compiler inherently exploits fewer optimization and parallelization opportunities than a method-based JIT compiler that compiles method-by-method. So we propose a new method-based JIT compiler, named DEX2C, in order to improve performance by finding more opportunities for both optimization and parallelization in Android applications. We employ C code as an intermediate product in order to find more optimization opportunities by using the GNU C Compiler (GCC), and we will detect parallelism by using the Intel C/C++ parallel compiler and the AESOP compiler in our future work. In this paper, we introduce our DEX2C compiler, which dynamically translates Dalvik bytecodes (DEX) into C code with method granularity. We also describe a new method-based JIT interface in the Dalvik VM for the DEX2C compiler. Our experiment results show that our compiler and its interface achieve significant performance improvement by up to 15.2 times and 3.7 times on average, in Element Benchmark, and up to 2.8 times for FFT in Smartbench.
