GOMS model is a cognitive modeling method of human performance based on Goal, Operators, Methods, Selection rules. GOMS model was originally designed for desktop environment so that it is difficult for GOMS model to be implemented into the mobile environment. In addition, GOMS model would be inaccurate because the original GOMS model was based on serial processing, excluding one of most important human information processing characteristics, parallel processing. Therefore this study was designed to propose a modified GOMS model including mobile computing and parallel processing. In order to encompass mobile environment, an operator of 'look for' was divided into 'visual move to' and 'recognize' whereas 'point to' and 'click' were combined into 'tab.' The results showed that newly introduced operators were necessary to estimate more accurate mobile computing behaviors. In conclusion, modified-GOMS model could predict human performance more accurately than the original GOMS model in the mobile computing environment.

A Parallel Processing model by considering a spatiotemporal parallelism is presented for the training procedure of the MLP neural network. We tried to design the flexible Parallel Processing model by simultaneously applying both of the training-set decomposition for a temporal parallelism and the network decomposition for a spatial parallelism. The analytical Performance evaluation model shows that when the problem size is extremely large, the speedup of each implementation depends, in the extreme, on whether the problem size is pattern-size intensive or pattern-quantify intensive.

The Active Appearance Model (AAM) is a class of deformable models, which, in the segmentation process, integrates the priori knowledge on the shape and the texture and deformation of the structures studied. This model in its sequential form is computationally intensive and operates on large data sets. This paper presents another framework to implement the standard version of the AAM model. We suggest a distributed and parallel approach justified by the characteristics of the model and their potentialities. We introduce a schema for the representation of the overall model and we study of operations that can be parallelized. This approach is intended to exploit the benefits build in the area of advanced image processing.

The existing GOMS model overestimates the performance time of mouse activities because it describes them in a serial sequence. However, parallel movements of eye and hand(eye-hand coordination) have been dominant in mouse activities and this eye-hand coordination is the main factor for the overestimation of performance time. In this study, therefore, the revised CGOMSL model was developed to implement eye-hand coordination to the mouse activity to overcome one of the limitations of GOMS model, the lack of capability for parallel processing. The suggested revised CGOMSL model for drag activity, as an example for one of mouse activities in this study, begins visual search processing before a hand movement but ends the visual search processing with the hand movement in the same time. The results show that the revised CGOMSL model made the prediction of human performance more accurately than the existing GOMS model. In other words, one of the limitations of GOMS model, the incapability of parallel processing, could be overcome with the revised CGOMSL model so that the performance time should be more accurately predicted.

This paper is to propose an analytical queuing model for parallel processing of sequential program with nested loops. The analytical results are compared with the results from the implemented multiprocessor system composed of four intel 8088 microprocessor, eight 2KB shared common memories, and a hardware token ring. At results, this study shows that the processed results are almost similar in proposed analytical model and real system. Proposed analytical model can be applied to evaluate parallel processing of sequential program with nested loops.

Military wargame simulation models must support the HLA in order to facilitate interoperability with other simulations, and using parallel simulation engines offer efficiency in reducing system overhead generated by propelling interoperability. However, legacy military simulation model engines process events using sequential event-driven method. This is due to problems generated by parallel processing such as synchronous reference to global data domains. Additionally. using legacy simulation platforms result in insufficient utilization of multiple CPUs even if a multiple CPU system is under use. Therefore, in this paper, we propose conversing the simulation engine to an object model-based parallel simulation engine to ensure military wargame model's improved system processing capability, synchronous reference to global data domains, external simulation time processing, and the sequence of parallel-processed events during a crash recovery. The converted parallel simulation engine is designed and implemented to enable parallel execution on a multiple CPU system (SMP).

This paper presents three multiprocess models for parallel protocol implementation, that is, (1)channel communication model, (2)fork-join model, and (3)event polling model. For the specification of parallelism for each model, a parallel programming language, Par. C System, is used. to measure the performance of multiprocess models, we implemented the Internet Protocol Suite(IPS) Internet Protocol (IP) for each model by writing the parallel language on the Transputer. After decomposing the IP functions into two parts, that is, the sending side and the receiving side, the parallelism in both sides is exploited in the form of Multiple Instruction Single Data (MISD). Three models are evaluated and compared on the basis of various run-time overheads, such as an event sending via channels in the parallel channel communication model, process creating in the fork-join model and context switching in the event polling model, at the sending side and the receiving side. The event polling model has lower processing delays as about 77% and 9% in comparison with the channel communication model and the fork-join model at the sending side, respectively. At the receiving side, the fork-join model has lower processing delays as about 55% and 107% in comparison with the channel communication model and the event polling model, respectively.

This paper presents the linear model of the measurement system with Phasor Measurement Units (PMU's) and the parallel processing technique to determinate state vectors of a power system. The conventional model of the PMU measurement system is in a dilemma that it is not applicable to optimal PMU placements and it needs more PMU to apply this model. In order to improve this defect, in this paper, the extended linear model which adaptable to optimal PMU placements considering the feature of zero injection bus is proposed. Because the proposed model is expressed as over-determined measurement equation, the efficient algorithm is needed. This paper proposed the partitioning scheme and the process algorithm for parallel determinating state vectors of a power system efficiently. The performance of the proposed linear model and the parallel processing algorithm is evaluated with IEEE sample systems.

In this paper, we propose a parallel processing model for the efficient selection of Prime Implicants of Logic Functions. This model consists of simple parallel processing nodes, connections between them, Max Net (a part of Hamming Net) and quasi essential Prime Implicant selection standard in simplified cost form. Through these, this model selects essential Prime Implicants in a certain period of time regardless of the number of given Prime Implicants and minterms and also selects quasi essential Prime Implicants in short time.

The performance issues of screening large database compounds and multiple query compounds in virtual screening highlight a common concern in Chemoinformatics applications. This study investigates these problems by choosing group fusion as a pilot model and presents efficient parallel solutions in parallel platforms, specifically, the multi-core architecture of CPU and many-core architecture of graphical processing unit (GPU). A study of sequential group fusion and a proposed design of parallel CUDA group fusion are presented in this paper. The design involves solving two important stages of group fusion, namely, similarity search and fusion (MAX rule), while addressing embarrassingly parallel and parallel reduction models. The sequential, optimized sequential and parallel OpenMP of group fusion were implemented and evaluated. The outcome of the analysis from these three different design approaches influenced the design of parallel CUDA version in order to optimize and achieve high computation intensity. The proposed parallel CUDA performed better than sequential and parallel OpenMP in terms of both execution time and speedup. The parallel CUDA was 5-10x faster than sequential and parallel OpenMP as both similarity search and fusion MAX stages had been CUDA-optimized.
