In cluster computers, it is essential to Implement the single I/O space(SIOS) supporting integrated I/O substructure to efficiently process I/O intensive applications. SIOS service provides with global I/O address space to directly access peripherals and hard disks in its own or remote nodes from any node in the cluster computer In this thesis, we propose the implementation method of SIOS in Linux clusters by using only freewares. This method is implemented at device driver level that uses Enhanced Network Block Device(ENBD) and file system level that uses S/W RAID and NFS. The major strengths of this method are easiness of implementation and almost no cost due to using freewares. In addition, since freewares used are open sources, it is possible to apply this method to other platforms with only slight modification. Moreover, experiments show that I/O throughputs are up to 5.5 times higher in write operations and approximately 2.3 times higher in read operations than those of CDD method that uses the device driver developed at kernel level.

One of very important features that are necessarily supported by clustered parallel computer systems is a single I/O system image in which users can access both the local and remote I/O resources transparently. In this paper, we propose an efficient disk sharing technique supporting a single disk I/O system image architecture. The design separates the I/O subsystem of a cluster into the file system and a set of virtual hard disk drivers. The virtual hard disk driver deals with a hard disk in the remote node as a local hard disk. All services provided by it are performed in the device driver level without any modification of file systems. Users can, therefore, access all the disks in the cluster regardless of their locations. Our virtual hard disk driver is implemented under the linux, and also tested in a linux cluster system. We find by experiments that it can successfully support a single disk I/O space, and at the same time it shows better performance than NFS. We are sure that this paper can be a guideline for single I/O space of other devices to be easily constructed.

We present the results of time monitoring observations of $^{28}SiO$ v = 1, 2, J = 1-0, $^{29}SiO$ v = 0, J = 1-0 and $H_2O$ $6_{16}-5_{23}$ maser lines toward radio Source I in Orion KL. The observations have been performed from 2009 June to 2013 April using the 21m single dish radio telescopes of the Korean VLBI Network. Both SiO and $H_2O$ maser lines were simultaneously obtained at 20 epochs. In particular, the third outburst of $H_2O$ maser emission (the first: 1985, the second: 1998) was detected and the flux density variation curve was obtained. The maximum flux density flared up to an order of $10^5$ Jy during 2012 May-July at peak velocity of 7.33 km $s^{-1}$. Hirota et al. (2011) reported that the bursting maser features are located at 8" from Source I and coincident with the interacting region between the outflow from Source I and a dense ambient gas, Orion Compact Ridge. In the case of SiO masers arising from close to the Source I, the peak emission of the v = 1, J = 1-0 maser line appeared in 2010 April. We are investigating the possible relation between this SiO maser peak emission and the third $H_2O$ maser flaring.

The virtual memory system in 4.4 BSD operating systems exploits a clustering scheme to reduce disk I/Os in paging out (or flushing) modified pages that are intended to be replaced in order to make free rooms in memory. Upon the page out of a victim page, the scheme stores a cluster (or group) of modified pages contiguous with the victim in the virtual address space to swap disk at a single disk write. However, it fails to find large clusters of contiguous pages if applications change pages not adjacent with each other in the virtual address space. To address the problem, we propose a new clustering scheme called Multiple-Object Clustering (MOC), which together stores multiple clusters in the virtual address space at a single disk write instead of paging out the clusters to swap space at separate disk I/Os. This multiple-cluster transfer allows the virtual memory system to significantly decrease disk writes, thus improving the page-out performance. Our experiments in the FreeBSD 6.2 show that MOC improves the execution times of realistic benchmarks such as NS2, Scimark2 SOR, and nbench LU over the traditional clustering scheme ranging from 9 to 45%.

A fire fighting characteristic by a single evaporating droplet in the case of a fire of military enclosure space was studied experimentally. Transient cooling of solid surface by water droplet evaporation has been investigated through controlled experiments using a heated brass cylinder. Quantitative predictions of droplet evaporation time and in-depth transient temperature distribution in solid have been made. The particular interest was in the removal of thermal energy from the heated cylinder by evaporative cooling. A $10{\mu}1$ single droplet is deposited on a horizontal brass surface with initial temperatures in the range of $90^{\circ}C{\sim}130^{\circ}C.$ The results can be summarized as follows; Evaporating droplet was divided into three different configuration. Evaporation time was predicted as a function of initial surface temperature ($t_c=492.62-6.89T_{s0}+0.0248T_{s0}^2).$ The contact temperature was predicted as a function of initial surface temperature( $T_{i}$=0.94 $T_{s0}$+1.4), The parameter ${\beta}_o$ was predicted as a function of initial surface temperature( ${\beta}_0$ : 0.O0312 $T_{s0}+0.932$)>)>)

The single-crystal structure of fully dehydrated partially $Li^+$-exchanged zeolite Y, ${\mid}Li_{50}Na_{25}{\mid}[Si_{117}Al_{75}O_{384}]$-FAU, was determined by single-crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group $Fd\bar{3}m$ at 100(1) K. Ion exchange was accomplished by flowing stream of 0.1 M aqueous $LiNO_3$ for 2 days at 293 K, followed by vacuum dehydration at 623 K and $1{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr for 2 days. The structure was refined using all intensities to the final error indices (using only the 801 reflections with ($F_o$ > $4{\sigma}(F_o)$) $R_1/R_2=0.043/0.140$. The 50 $Li^+$ ions per unit cell are found at three different crystallographic sites. The 19 $Li^+$ ions occupy at site I' in the sodalite cavity: the $Li^+$ ions are recessed 0.30 ${\AA}$ into the sodalite cavity from their 3-oxygens plane (Li-O = 1.926(5) ${\AA}$ and $O-Li-O=117.7(3)^{\circ}$). The 20 $Li^+$ ions are found at site II in the supercage, being recessed 0.23 ${\AA}$ into the supercage (Li-O = 2.038(5) ${\AA}$ and $O-Li-O=118.7(3)^{\circ}$). Site III' positions are occupied by 11 $Li^+$ ions: these $Li^+$ ions bind strongly to one oxygen atom (Li-O = 2.00(8) ${\AA}$). About 25 $Na^+$ ions per unit cell are found at four different crystallographic sites: 4 $Na^+$ ions are at site I, 5 at site I', 12 at site II, and the remaining 4 at site III'.

The positions of $PbI _2$ molecule synthesized into the molecular-dimensioned cavities of $\mid K_6 (Pb _4I_2)(PbI_2) _{0.67}-(H_2O)_2\mid [Si _{12}Al _{12}O _{48}]$-LTA have been determined. A single crystal of $\mid Pb _6\mid [Si _{12}Al _{12}O _{48}]$-LTA, prepared by the dynamic ion-exchange of $\mid Na _{12}\mid [Si _{12}Al _{12}O _{48}]$-LTA with aqueous 0.05 M $Pb _(NO _3)_2$ and washed with deionized water, was placed in a stream of flowing aqueous 0.05 M KI at 294 K for three days. The resulting crystal structure of the product $( \mid K_6 (Pb _4I_2)(PbI_2) _{0.67}(H_2O)_2\mid [Si _{12}Al _{12}O _{48}]$-LTA, a = 12.353(1) $\AA$) was determined at 294 K by single-crystal X-ray diffraction in the space group Pm3 m. It was refined with all measured reflections to the final error index $R_1$ = 0.062 for 623 reflections which $F_o$ > 4$\sigma$($F_o$). 4.67 $Pb ^{2+}$ and six $K^+$ ions per unit cell are found at three crystallographically distinct positions: 3.67 $Pb ^{2+}$ and three $K^+$ ions on the 3-fold axes opposite six-rings in the large cavity, three $K^+$ ions off the plane of the eight-rings, and the remaining one $Pb ^{2+}$ ion lies opposite four-ring in the large cavity. 0.67 $Pb ^{2+}$ ions and 1.34 $I^-$ ions per unit cell are found in the sodalite units, indicating the formation of a $PbI _2$ molecule in 67% of the sodalite units. Each $PbI _2$ (Pb-I = 3.392(7) $\AA$) is held in place by the coordination of its one $Pb ^{2+}$ ion to the zeolite framework (a $Pb ^{2+}$ cation is 0.74 $\AA$ from a six-ring oxygens) and by the coordination of its two $I^-$ ions to $K^+$ ions through six-rings (I-K = 3.63(4) $\AA$). Two additional $I^-$ ions per unit cell are found opposite a four-ring in the large cavity and form $Pb _2K_2I^{5+}$ and $Pb _2K_2I^{3+}$ moieties, respectively, and two water molecules per unit cell are also found on the 3-fold axes in the large cavity.

A new bis(dicyclohexylammonium) chromate dihydrate complex, $[(C_6H_{11})_2NH_2]_2[CrO_4]{\cdot}2H_2O$, (I), has been synthesized and its structure analyzed by FT-IR, EDS, elemental analysis, ICP-AES, and single crystal X-ray diffraction methods. The Cr(VI) complex (I) is tetragonal system, I${\bar{4}}$2d space group with a = 12.5196(1), b = 12.5196(1), c = $17.3796(3){\AA}$, a = ${\beta}$ = ${\gamma}$ = $90^{\circ}$, V = $2724.09(6){\AA}^3$, Z = 4. The crystal structure of complex (I) consists of tetrahedral chromate $[CrO_4]^{2-}$ anion, two organic dicyclohexylammonium $[(C_6H_{11})_2NH_2]^+$ cations and two lattice water molecules. The chromate anion and protonated dicyclohexylammonium cation is mainly constructed through the ionic bond. The cyclohexylammonium rings of the dicyclohexylammonium cation take the chair form and vertical configuration with each other. The N-H${\cdot}$O and O-H${\cdot}$O hydrogen bond networks between the $N_{dicyclohexylammonium}$, $O_{water}$ and $O_{chromate}$ atom lead to self-assembled molecular conformation and stabilize the crystal structure.

The Korean VLBI Network (KVN) as a world-first multi-frequency VLBI system is operated at four bands of 22, 43, 86, and 129 GHz simultaneously. The performances of both single dish and VLBI network were already confirmed through single dish researches and VLBI evaluation test observations. The VLBI common use of the KVN at 22/43 GHz bands has been started from this autumn. The combined network of KVN and Japanese VERA (KaVA) will start the common use from the first half of next year. Here we present several observational results in the fields of star forming regions, late-type stars, and active galactic nuclei using the KVN and KaVA. The fringes of 44 GHz $CH_3OH$ (Class I) masers were detected from 26 sources for the first time using the KVN and imaging observations are under performing. Simultaneous observations of SiO and $H_2O$ masers toward about 1000 evolved stars showed the different maser properties between SiO and $H_2O$ masers according to the evolutionary stages of AGB and post-AGB stars. The catalog of correlated flux densities were established from a 43 GHz (Q-band) survey of 637 extragalactic sources. At 22 GHz (K-band), flux density measurement and fringe survey for new sources were performed toward a large number of sources. In addition, the large program of KVN and/or KaVA under planning is introduced.
