This paper determines the allocation of computers and data files to minimize the sum of processing and communication costs which occur in processing jobs at each node. The problem of optimally configuring a distributed computer system belongs to the class of NP-Complete problems and the object function of this paper is nonlinear function and is hard to solve. This paper seeks the solution of distributed processing system by Tabu Search. Firstly, it presents the method of generating the starting solution proper to the distributed processing system. Secondly, it develops the method of searching neighborhood solutions. Finally, it determines the Tabu restriction appropriate to the distributed processing system. According to the experimental results, this algorithm solves a sized problems in reasonable time and is effective in the convergence of the solution. The algorithm developed in this paper is also applicable to the general allocation problems of the distributed processing system.

The mouse bioassay has been used widely for the monitoring of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) in many countries. However, this method shows low sensitivity and high limit of detection (LOD), as well as it cannot confirm toxic profiles. Recently, LC-MS/MS method was studied for the quantitative of PSTs, however, the method has any problems with unstable retention times by ionization suppression caused by high salt concentration in shellfish extracts. To establish an alternative method for PSTs analysis, we tried to original LC-MS/MS methods adding desalting operation using amorphous graphitized polymer carbon solid-phase extraction cartridges. The method validation was conducted to determine linearity, limit of detection, limit of quantification (LOQ), accuracy, and precision in quantifying PSTs. The correlation coefficients for all tested PSTs maintained over 0.999. The LODs and LOQs for all PSTs were about 0.19-1.05 ㎍/kg and 0.58-3.18 ㎍/kg, respectively. The accuracies for PSTs were 95.4-107.7% for saxitoxin group, 97.1-100.9% for gonyautoxin group, 99.0-100.8% for N-sulfocarbamoyl toxin group, and 96.8-104.6% for decarbamoyl toxin group. These results indicate that the modified LC-MS/MS method was appropriate for analyzing the PSTs in shellfish and tunicates.

With the growing popularity of smart devices, various location based services have been providing to users. Recently, some location based social applications that combine social services and location based services have been emerged. The demands of a k-nearest neighbors(k-NN) query which finds k closest locations from a user location are increased in the location based social network services. In this paper, we propose an approximate k-NN query processing method for fast response time in a large number of users environments. The proposed method performs efficient stream processing using big data distributed processing technologies. In this paper, we also propose a modified grid index method for indexing a large amount of location data. The proposed query processing method first retrieves the related cells by considering a user movement. By doing so, it can make an approximate k results set. In order to show the superiority of the proposed method, we conduct various performance evaluations with the existing method.

The purpose of this study was to compare the amount of the vertical pin opening of dentures processed by the conventional compression method & the injection-processing method. The articulating ribbon and T-Scan system were used to determine the changes in tooth contacts and the correlation between the changes in tooth contacts and the amount of the vertical pin opening after processing was analyzed statistically. The obtained results were as follows. 1. The amounts of the vertical pin opening were 0.75mm, 0.31mm for conventional compression method and injection-pressing method, respectively. The difference between the two methods was highly significant on the basis of t test statistics(p<0.05). 2. The total number of contact points recorded by articulating ribbon after processing was decreased to 48%, 72%, of that before processing for conventional compression method and injection-pressing method, by T-Scan system, 39%, 53%, respectively. 3. The mean values for the number of contacts points per tooth recorded by articulating ribbon after processing were 1.6 for the second molar, 2.2 for the first moalr, 0.4 for the second premolar, 0.6 for the first premolar in conventional compression method, and 2, 3.2, 1.2, 0.8 in injection-pressing method. 4. The correlation between the reduction of contact points and the amount of the pin opening after processing was not significant. 5. The mean values for the number of contact points per tooth recorded by T-Scan system after processing were 1.25, 1.4, 0.7, and 0.55 at the second molar, the first molar, the second premolar, and the first premolar in conventional compression method, and 1.45, 2.1, 1.0, 0.75 in injection method, respectively. 6. The correlation between the number of contact points by using articulating ribbon and T-Scan system after processing was not significant in both methods.

In this paper, we developed an analyzing method of the motional characteristics of sperm, using image processing technology. Without the aid of a dedicated image-processor, this processing of a personal computer(PC) and a simple image processing board. The image processing board is used for acquiring images from a microscopic imaging source. The PC processes the images from the board and computes the parameters of motional characteristics of sperms. The algorithm of the site detection of sperms and the 'Match Matrix Method' is noteworthy. After comparing the results of our method with those of the manual method, and with those of the method using a dedicated image-processor, we concluded that our method is useful and reliable.

In this paper, we propose the new method to decrease the navigation error by measurement time synchronization error in RLG Trapping signal processing. There are two methods to eliminate the dither motion in RLG. One is the stripping signal processing method. Another is the trapping signal processing method. This two methods have various error sources in measurement output. We perform the error modelling and analysis for the measurement time synchronization error between angular rate from RLG and acceleration from accelerometer in the trapping signal processing method. And we verify the navigation performance through simulation and experiment. Results of simulation and experiment show that the proposed method is very effective in decreasing the navigation error.

A fiber processing method, which might be an alternative for conventional refining process, was introduced. The method consists of repetitive, gentle, mechanical impacts on fibers, followed by fiber uncurling process. This method was very effective for OCC and BCTMP for increasing WRVs (water retention value) while keeping fiber lengths from shortening. For OCC and BCTMP, gentle mechanical impacts on fibers using Hobart mixer increased breaking lengths and tear strengths simultaneously at fast drainage level, and straightening fibers using kady mill increased those strength properties further. For SwBKP and HwBKP, only mechanical impacts using the Hobart mixer were effective on increasing tensile and tear strength at fast drainage, but there were no further increase by kady mill treatment. The strength increases of BCTMP by this alternative fiber processing method were exceptionally high. An extensive engineering development should be followed to actualize this fiber processing mechanism in an energy-effect way.

The fiber oriented condition inside fiber reinforced composite material is a basic factor of mechanical properties of composite materials. It is very important to meausure the fiber orientation angle for the determination of molding conditions, mechanical characteristics, and the design of composite materials. In the work, the fiber orientation distribution of simulation figure plotted by PC is measured using image processing in order to examine the accuracy of intersection counting method. The fiber orientation function measured by intersection counting method using image processing is compared with the calculated fiber orientation function. The results show that the measured value of fiber orientation function using intersection counting method is lower than the calculated value, because the number of intersection between the scanning line and the fiber with smaller fiber aspect ratio is counted less than with larger fiber aspect ratio.

Strange attractor can be used as a presentation method for signal processing. Fractal dimension is well known method that extract features from attractor. Even though the method provides powerful capabilities for speech processing, there is drawback which should be solved in advance. Normally, the size of the raw signal should be long enough for processing if we use the fractal dimension method. However, in the area of connected-digits problem, normally, syllable or semi-syllable based processing is applied. In this case, there is no evidence that we have sufficient data or not to extract characteristics of attractor. This paper discusses the relationship between the size of the signal data and the calculation result of fractal dimension, and also discusses the efficient way to be applied to connected-digit recognition.

Parallel processing is able to be used effectively on computationally intense power system problems. But this technology is not still available is not only parallel computer but also parallel processing scheme. Testing these algorithms to ensure accuracy, and evaluation of their performance is also an issue. Although a significant amount of parallel algorithms of power system problem have been developed in last decade, actual testing on parallel computer architectures lies in the beginning stages because no clear cut paths. This paper presents Jacobian modeling method to supply the base being able to treat power flow by newton's method by the computer. This method is to assign and to compute teared blocks of sparse matrix at each parallel processors. The testing to insure accuracy of developed method have been done on serial computer by trying to simulate a parallel environment.
