The dining philosophers problem(DPP) is that five philosophers sit around a round table and eat spaghetti(or noodles) together, where they must have a pair of chopsticks(two) on both sides of them to eat, and if all philosophers have one chopstick on the right, no one can eat because the deadlock occurs. Deadlocks are a problem that frequently occur in parallel systems, and most current operating systems(OS) cannot prevent it. This paper proposes a silver bullet that causes no deadlock in an OS where all processors of 2≤n≤∞ have multiple parallel processing capabilities. The proposed method is a group round-robin method in which ⌊n/2⌋ odd processors form a group and perform simultaneously, and shift right to the next processor when execution ends. The proposed method is to perform two times for even processors, three times for odd processors per one round-robin. If the proposed method is performed n times, even-numbered processors perform n/2 times and odd-numbered processors perform (n-1)/2-times.

Packet scheduling is an essential function to guarantee a quality of service by differentiating services in the Internet. Scheduling algorithms that have been suggested so far can be devided into Round-Robin methods and Fair Queueing methods Round-Robin methods have the advantage of high-speed processing through simple implementations, while Fair Queueing methods offer accurate services. Fair queueing algorithms, however, have problems of computational overheads and implementation complexity as their schedulers manage the states of every flow. This paper suggests a new method in which each flow performs the calculation in a distributed way to decide the service order. Our algorithm significantly reduces the scheduler's computational overheads while providing the same level of accuracy with the previous Fair Queueing algorithms.

Recently, the existing embedded real-time operating systems(RTOSs) are being developed in terms of various modified versions in every application fields. Major characteristics and difference of these OSs lie in their distinct development of mechanisms which can be used in various environment and task-scheduling function which can control time-limited contingencies. In this paper, we design and implement round/robin scheduling algorithm based on time-sharing with equal-priority for multiple tasks which are provided preemptive and priority task allocation function in $\mu{C/OS-II}$ version 2.03. We propose the most important event-ready list structure in $\mu{C/OS-II}$; kernel, and provide the running result for multiple tasks with equal priority for the proposed structure.

SoC(System on a Chip) has several masters, slaves, arbiter and decoder in bus architecture. Master initiates the data transactions like CPU, DMA and DSP and slave responses the data transactions like SRAM SDRAM and register. Furthermore, as multiple masters can't use a bus concurrently, arbiter plays an role in bus arbitration. In compliance with the selection of arbitration method, SoC performance can be changed definitely. Fixed priority, round-robin, TDM arbitration are used in general arbitration method, In this study, we compose TLM algorithm and analyze general arbitration methods through TLM simulation. Consequently, we propose the hybrid bus arbitration policy and verify the performance, compared with the other arbitration methods.

Virtualization technologies are being adopted and broadly utilized in many fields and at different levels. In cloud computing, achieving load balancing across large distributed virtual machines is considered a complex optimization problem with an essential importance in cloud computing systems and data centers as the overloading or underloading of tasks on VMs may cause multiple issues in the cloud system like longer execution time, machine failure, high power consumption, etc. Therefore, load balancing mechanism is an important aspect in cloud computing that assist in overcoming different performance issues. In this research, we propose a new approach that combines the advantages of different task allocation algorithms like Round robin algorithm, and Random allocation with different threshold techniques like the VM utilization and the number of allocation counts using least connection mechanism. We performed extensive simulations and experiments that augment different scheduling policies to overcome the resource utilization problem without compromising other performance measures like makespan and execution time of the tasks. The proposed system provided better results compared to the original round robin as it takes into consideration the dynamic state of the system.

This paper introduces implementation of a traffic distributed processing system on the Web Sever Networking. The study used two software packages （Packet Capture and Round-Robin Test Package） to check packet quantity from Virtual Network Structure (data generator, virtual server, Serve. 1, 2, 3), and could find out traffic distribution toward Server 1, 2, and 3. The functions of implemented Round-Robin Load Balancing Monitoring System include Round-Robin testing, system monitoring, and graphical indication of data transmission/packet quantity (figures ＆ diagram). As the result of the study shows, Round-Robin Algorithm ensured definite traffic distribution, unless incoming data loads differ much. Although error levels were high in some cases, they were eventually alleviated by repeated tests for a long period of time.

In this paper, we propose a delay reduction method for frame-based packet transmit scheduling algorithm. A high-speed network such as ATM network has to provide some performance guarantees such as bandwidth and delay bound. Framing strategy naturally guarantees bandwidth and enables simple rate-control while having the inherently bad delay characteristics. The proposed delay reduction method uses the same hierarchical frame structure as HRR (Hierarchical Round-Robin) but does not use the static priority scheme such as round-robin. Instead, we use a dynamic priority change scheme so that the delay unfairness between wide bandwidth connection and narrow bandwidth connection can be eliminated. That is, we use FIFO (First-In First-Out) concept to effectively reduce the occurrence of worst-case delay and to enhance delay distribution. We compare the performance for the proposed algorithm with that of HRR. The analytic and simulation results show that HFIFO inherits almost all merits of HRR with fairly better delay characteristics.

PQ(Priority Queue) and WRR(Weighted Round Robin) are the most famous schedulers, however, these schedulers have both points of advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can be adopted in my kind of scheduling type with making up for weak points of PQ and WRR. The proposed algorithm includes a fuzzy theory in the scheduler to assign priorities dynamically in the DiffServ network. This algorithm produces the control discipline by the fuzzy theory to assign priorities of the Queue effectively with checking the Queue status of each class dynamically under the discipline.

Input queued switch is useful for high bandwidth switches and routers because of lower complexity and fewer circuits than output queued. The input queued switch, however, suffers the HOL-Blocking, which limits its throughput to 58%. To overcome HOL-Blocking problem, many input-queued switch controlled by a scheduling algorithm. Most scheduling algorithms are implemented based on a centralized scheduler which restrict the design of the switch architecture. In this paper, we propose a simple scheduler called Pipelined Round Robin (PRR) which is intrinsically distributed by each input port. We presents to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheduler.

양자 컴퓨터의 발전과 쇼어 알고리즘을 통한 ECC(Eliptic Curve Cryptography)에 대한 다항 시간의 솔루션을 제공함으로써 블록체인의 안정성이 위협받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Round-Robin을 기반으로 하는 알고리즘을 제안함으로써 블록 생성에 대한 공정성을 제공하며 양자 내성 전자 서명인 CRYSTALS-DIlithium을 적용함으로써 근미래에 다가올 양자 위험성에 대비하였다. TPS 측면에서는 DIlithium의 큰 키 크기와 큰 서명 크기에 의해 ECDSA에 비해 낮은 성능을 보여주었지만, Latency 측면에서는 더욱 높은 성능을 보여주며, 이는 실시간성이 중요한 IoT와 같은 분야에서 더욱 높은 효용성을 보여줌을 알 수 있다.
