The emerging Spin-Transfer Torque RAM (STT-RAM) is a promising component that can be used to improve the efficiency as a result of its high storage density and low leakage power. However, the state-of-the-art STT-RAM is not ready to replace SRAM technology due to the negative effect of its write operations. The write operations require longer latency and more power than the same operations in SRAM. Therefore, a hybrid cache with SRAM and STT-RAM technologies is proposed to obtain the benefits of STT-RAM while minimizing its negative effects by using SRAM. To efficiently use of the hybrid cache, it is important to place write intensive data onto the cache. Such data should be placed on SRAM to minimize the negative effect. Thus, we propose a technique that optimizes placement of data in main memory. It drives the proper combination of advantages and disadvantages for SRAM and STT-RAM in the hybrid cache. As a result of the proposed technique, write intensive data are loaded to SRAM and read intensive data are loaded to STT-RAM. In addition, our technique also optimizes temporal locality to minimize conflict misses. Therefore, it improves performance and energy consumption of the hybrid cache architecture in a certain range.

Considering the applicability of Kuz-Ram model, which has been used extensively for predicting rock fragmentation size distribution by blasting, to domestic open-pit limestone mine, a total of 21 blasting tests have been executed at an open-pit limestone mine in eastern Gangwon of South Korea. A comparative analysis of field measured value and Kuz-Ram predicted value showed that there are a considerable amount of error in the predicted values regardless of application of various correction parameters for rock factor and uniformity factor; up to 56.45% in mean fragmentation size and 37.52% in uniformity index. Also the problem of applying different correction parameters has been derived even though a similar blasting pattern has been adopted for a same blasting bench. The authors therefore suggest that Kuz-Ram model needs to be modified for a proper application to domestic open-pit limestone mine.

RAM analysis determines the range of resources to be invested by presenting the development goals of the weapon system. If the RAM analysis is not performed properly, it can cause a huge increase in business costs. While the cumulative cost ratio in the concept study is less than 1% of the total cost, 65-70% of the total lifecycle cost is determined and can't be reduced later. Therefore, RAM analysis is crucial in precedent study. When calculating the target RAM value by writing an existing OMS/MP, new functions and the future missions are hardly considered and reflected. Therefore, this paper proposes a method to establish OMS/MP by deriving arguments based on Delphi and Bayesian theory focusing on unmanned combat vehicle.

The flash translation layer(FTL) of SSD maps the logical page number requested from the host to the actual recorded flash memory page number. It is very important to reduce the amount of RAM used to manage the mapping information. In the existing demand-based FTLs, two-level method is applied in which mapping information is also recorded in flash memory pages and only their addresses are managed as a table in RAM. As the capacities of SSDs are growing to tens of terabytes, the amount of RAM for mapping table becomes too large. In this paper, ML-FTL was proposed as a method of managing mapping information in three levels to reduce the amount of RAM required drastically. From an evaluation, the increase in overhead was minimal compared to the conventional two-level method by properly utilizing cache.

A RAM-based neural network is a weightless neural network based on binary neural network(BNN) which is efficient neural network with a one-shot learning. RAM-based neural network has multiful information bits and store counts of training in BNN. Supervised learning based on the RAM-based neural network has the excellent performance in pattern recognition but in pattern categorization with unsupervised learning as unsuitable. In this paper, we propose a unsupervised learning algorithm in the RAM-based neural network to perform pattern categorization. By the proposed unsupervised learning algorithm, RAM-based neural network create categories depending on the input pattern by itself. Therefore, RAM-based neural network for supervised learning and unsupervised learning should proof of all possible complex models. The training data for experiments provided by the MNIST offline handwritten digits which is consist of 0 to 9 multi-pattern.

In this paper, algorithm and testable circuit to find all PSF(Pattern Sensitive Fault ) occured in RAM were proposed. Conventional test circuit and algorithm took much time in testing because consecutive test for RAM cells or f-dimensional memory struciure was not employed. In this paper, methodology for parallel RAM-testing was proposed by compensating additional circuit for test to conventional RAM circuit. Additional circuits are parallel comparator, error detector, group selector circuit and a modified decoder used for parallel testing. And also, the constructive method of Eulerian path to obtain efficient test pattern was performed. Consequently, If algorithm proposed in this paper Is used, the same operations as 32sxwor4 lines will be needed to test b x w=n matrix RAM. Circuit simulation was performerd, and 10 bits x :If words testable RAM was designed.

The objective of this paper is to provide a model for effective implementation of costing RAM management in the design and procurement of production facility considering the system cost-performance trade-off. This research proposes a two-step approach of costing RAM design and test of system RAM for production facility. In Step 1, a static model is proposed to find an initial system configuration to meet the required performance based on system RAM and LCC and analyzes the trade-off relationships between various factors of RAM and LCC. In the second Step, we developed time and failure truncated models for system reliability test and analysis. For the computational purpose, we developed computer programs and have shown the sample results. By the sample test run, the proposed model has shown the possibilities to provide a good method to analyze system performance evaluation for both design and operational phase, This model can be applied to a wide variety of systems not only for costing RAM of the production facilities but also for the other kinds of equipment.

The influences of ram pressure on the performances of tilting-pad journal bearings are investigated experimentally. The test rig consists of a single tilting-pad and a rotating journal. Film thicknesses and pressure distribution of the lubricating film are measured continuously for several values of coordinate of the pivot position and journal speed. The findings of the investigation are as follows: (]) According as the journal speed increases the ram pressure increases, maximum pressure decreases and the pivot position which maximize the minimum film thickness shifts toward the leading edge. (2) The ram pressure makes it possible to generate the converging wedge and the positive pressure between the pad and the journal even when the pad is supported at the points between the leading edge and the center of the pad. (3) The influence of the ram pressure on the performance of tilting pad bearings is significant and must be considered in the design of these bearings.
