본 논문은 SIMT구조의 GPGPU에서 적은 core수로 고성능을 달성하기 위한 구조를 제안하고 설계하였다. 모바일기기에 적용하기 위한 GPGPU는 소모전력대비 성능을 높이기 위한 구조가 필수적이다. 소모전력을 줄이기 위해서 core수가 줄어든 대신 성능을 높이기 위해 thread를 관리하기 위한 warp scheduler의 size를 4로 하여 일반적인 GPGPU의 32 보다 크게 줄였다. Warp size를 적게 되면 pipeline의 idle cycle수를 줄일 수 있고 cache 메모리 접근시 miss penalty를 줄이기 위한 memory latency 적용이 효율적이다. 설계된 GPGPU는 부동소수점 연산을 포함하는 테스트 프로그램으로 연산 성능을 측정하고 28nm CMOS공정으로 소비전력을 측정하여 전력당 성능지수로 104.5GFlops/Watt를 얻었다. 본 논문의 결과는 Nvidia의 Tegra K1과 비교하였을 때 약 4배 우수한 전력당 성능지수를 보였다.

에너지 절감형 서버 클러스터에서는 에너지 절감을 고려하지 않는 기존 서버 클러스터에 비해 서비스 품질을 보장하면서 전력소비를 절감하는 것을 목표로 하며, 현재의 부하를 처리하는 데 필요한 최소수의 서버들만 ON 하도록 고정 주기 또는 가변 주기로 서버들의 전원모드를 조정한다. 이에 대한 기존 연구들은 전력을 절감하거나 열을 낮추는데 노력해왔지만 에너지 효율성을 잘 고려하지 못했다. 본 논문에서는 기존 자율학습기반의 서버 전원 모드 제어 방법의 단위전력당 성능과 QoS를 높이기 위한 에너지 효율적인 클러스터 관리기법을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 다중임계기반의 자율학습 방법과 전력소모 예측 방법을 결합한 서버 전원 모드 제어이다. 일반적인 부하 상황에서는 다중임계 학습기반의 서버 전원 모드 제어를 적용하고, 급변하는 부하 상황에서는 예측기반의 서버 전원 모드 제어가 적용된다. 일반적 상황과 급변하는 상황의 구별은 현재의 사용자 요청과 관찰된 과거 몇 분의 사용자 요청의 비율에 따라 이루어진다. 또한, 동적종료 기법을 추가로 적용해 서버가 OFF 하는 데 소요되는 시간을 단축한다. 제안 방법은 16대 서버로 구성된 클러스터 환경에서 3가지 부하 패턴을 이용하여 실험을 수행한다. 다중임계 학습, 예측, 동적종료를 함께 이용한 실험에서 단위전력당 성능(유효응답 수)과 표준화된 QoS 측면에서 가장 우수한 결과를 보여준다. 제안하는 방법과 파라미터 로드된 단일임계 학습을 비교할 때 뱅킹 부하패턴, 실제 부하패턴, 가상 부하패턴에서 단위전력당 유효응답 수가 각각 1.66%, 2.9%, 3.84% 향상되고, QoS 관점에서는 각각 0.45%, 1.33%, 8.82% 향상되었다.

In this experimental study we proposed the double dielectric barrier discharge (DDBD) reactor to produce as high an electric field as possible. The experiment are conducted for applied voltage from 15 to 20[kV], $1~4[\ell/min]$ of gas flow rate and 120[Hz] and 240[Hz] of pulse rate. Superposition discharge(SPD) generated in DDBD which combined the surface discharge with the silence discharge was the most effective to reduce the $NO_x$. In the decomposition efficiency per watt, the low pulse rate gave better efficiency than the high pulse rate. However in DeNOx rate, the high pulse rate gave better performance than the low pulse rate. $NO_x$ removal rate and efficiency increased with increasing the applied voltage in all reactors.

In this experimental study we Proposed the double dielectric barrier discharge (DDBD) reactor to produce as high an electric field as possible. The experiment are conducted for applied voltage from 15 to 20[tV], flow gas rage at 2[1/min] and pulse rate at 120[pulses/s] and 240[pulses/s]. SPD connection of DDBD which combine the surface discharge with the silence discharge was most effective to reduce the NOx. In the decomposition efficiency per watt, the low pulse rate gave hotter efficiency than that of the high pulse rate. However in DeNOx rate, the high pulse rate gave better performance than that of the low pulse rate. NOx removal rate increased with increasing the applied voltage in all reactors.

The effects of dark-control (D) and continuous green light (GL) exposure of incubated meat-type breeder eggs (Hybro) on embryonic growth from 5 to 15 days of age, hatching time, hatchability per cent and chick hatching weight were investigated in three consecutive experiments at 33, 38, and 41 weeks of age. A total of 798 eggs were used in this study. Eggs were set in an incubator on trays either in the D or under two tubes of 20-watt green fluorescent light during the first 18 days of incubation. Eggs from both treatments were transferred to the dark hatching compartment at 19 days of incubation. The light intensity was in the range of 1,340 to 1,730 lux at the surface of the eggs. GL incubation of eggs significantly (p<0.01) increased weight (expressed as an absolute value) and daily weight gain of embryos at 11 and continued to 15 days of age, hatchability per cent by 4.8%, reduced dead embryos per cent and chick weight at hatch by 37 and 2%, respectively and accelerated hatching time by about 24 h when compared with the D-control incubation. Chicks hatched at 504 h of incubation had significantly (p<0.01) higher body weight, expressed as an absolute value or as a percentage of egg weight, than those hatched earlier at 456 h of incubation. It was concluded that the GL incubation of meat breeder eggs reduced incubation period and chick weight at hatch and increased embryonic growth and hatchability per cent.

In this paper, multi-string power balancing system for streetlight was developed. Accordingly, the components of the system was developed, unit converters, MPPT control unit, a bank of Li-ion battery and controls the charging and discharging. Loss by improving the efficiency of the system through the parallel operation of the unit converter output will be reduced. And by improving the efficiency of the system through the unit converter parallel operation, output losses will be reduced. Charging and discharging efficiency of the device used in a typical solar streetlight is calculated based on the maximum power input. Because of the variation of the input power has a weakness. In this paper, flexible to changes in the input, and a system was developed to minimize the cost per watt. Measure the performance of the unit module from the system, the result was more than 91%. And the charging capacity 12 V/105 Ah, module power 180 W, respectively. Should expect to be able to improve performance through continuous monitoring in the future.

Conventional optimization designs of wireless networks mainly focus on spectral efficiency (SE) as a performance metric. However, as diverse media services are emerging, a green wireless network, which not only meets the quality of experience (QoE) requirements for users and also improves energy efficiency (EE), is the most appropriate solution. In this paper, we firstly propose the unit QoE per Watt, which is termed QoE efficiency (QEE), as a user-oriented metric to evaluate EE for wireless networks. We then analyze which is the kind of wireless resource given priority to use under different scenarios to obtain an acceptable QEE. Particularly, power, delay and data-rate related to QoE are separately addressed for several typical services, such as file download, video stream and web browsing services. Next, the fundamental tradeoffs are investigated between QEE and SE for wireless networks. Our analytical results are helpful for network design and optimization to strike a good balance between the users perceived QoE and energy consumption.

A study is presented of improved road light design for drivers and pedestrians with the use of a ray- or reverse ray-tracing method. Many existing road lights are unsuitable for drivers and pedestrians because of serious problems such as glare effect or randomicity of illuminated areas. This situation has arisen because in customary design methods the emphasis has been on simple factors such as luminance or electrical power. However a high luminance or electrical power consumption, alone, do not guarantee bright and good road lighting. So we have applied a ray-tracing method to the design of a road light reflector with the goals of ensuring that illuminated objects on the road can be seen more clearly and that the illuminating light is more comfortable for the eyes of drivers and pedestrians. We have set design targets for factors such as the uniformity of lighting on the road area per road light, the shading angles and the continuous luminance uniformity on long lengths of road. For set heights of the eyes of drivers and pedestrians eyes we have calculated a design guideline for the achievement of the above design targets. Then we designed a road light reflector using the reverse ray-tracing approach. Also we have achieved the same luminance on the road with almost half the power consumption, through the reduction of lighty loss. In an ideal design optimum parameters are suggested to be a shading angle of 75 degrees and a luminance uniformity of 0.5 on the road area. This reflector performance is achievable with a 250 watt power consumption ceramic discharge metal light source.

With the development of photovoltaic industry, the cost of photovoltaic power generation has become the significant issue. And the metallization process has decided the cost of original materials and photovoltaic efficiency of the solar cells. Nowadays, double printing process has been introduced instead of one-step printing process for front contact of polycrystalline silicon solar cells, which can effectively improve the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of silicon solar cells. Here, the relative cheap Cu paste has replaced the expensive Ag paste to form Ag/Cu composite front contact of silicon solar cells. The photovoltaic performance and the cost of photovoltaic power generation have been investigated. With the optimization on structure and height of Cu finger layer for Ag/Cu composite double-printed front contact, the silicon solar cells have exhibited a photovoltaic conversion efficiency of 18.41%, which has reduced 3.42 cent per Watt for the cost of photovoltaic power generation.
