The location estimation using sensor network has been considerably researched. The methods taking the differences of the forms of location estimation between indoors and outdoors into consideration have been studied. While it is possible for outdoor location to be estimated because outdoor location estimation has a consistent distribution during unit period through the value of RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indication) on outdoor location estimation, Indoor location estimation is difficult since multi-path and interference indoors are higher than those outdoors and indoor location estimation can be affected by other factors. In this paper, we revise the information of RSSI changed by multi-path and interference through the Moving Average method and K-means algorithm and propose the method of estimation for the value of RSSI with reliability in the group of signals received during unit period. We also suggest the way to put some weights on fixed nodes in network using a snooping node on location estimation and then evaluate the efficiency of location awareness as compared with the existing method by implementing proposed method on system through the reconfiguration of network.

Since CC-NUMA architecture has to access remote memory, the interconnection network determines the performance of the CC-NUMA system. Bus which has been used as a popular interconnection network has many limits in a large-scale system because of the limited physical scalability and bandwidth. The dual ring interconnection network, composed of high-speed point-to-point links, is made to resolve the defects of the bus for the large-scale system. However, it also has a problem, in that the response latency is rapidly increased when many nodes are attached to the snooping based CC-NUMA system with the dual ring. In this paper, we propose a ring architecture with repeater nodes in order to overcome the problem of the dual ring on a snooping based CC-NUMA system, and design a repeater node adapted to this architecture. We will also analyze the effects of proposed architecture on the system performance and the response latency by using a probability-driven simulator.

We also analyze the effects of chordal ring architecture on the system performance and the response latency by using probability driven simulator.
