  • 본 논문은 서버를 구성할 수 있는 방식 중의 하나인 Cold-standby 방식을 이용하여 리눅스를 기반으로 한 고가용의 웹 서버 설계 및 구현에 대해 그 방안을 제시하고자 한다. Cold-standby 방식은 프라이머리 서버와 필요시 그 기능을 대신하는 백업 서버로 구성되며, 서비스를 제공하는 프라이머리 서버에 결함이 발생하여 서비스를 제공할 수 없을 경우 백업 서버가 그 역할을 대신하는 동작 방식이다. 프라이머리 서버에서 백업 서버로의 스위칭은 리눅스에서 오픈 소스로 제공하는 heartbeat 기법을 이용하여 프라이머리 서버의 결함발생시 백업 서버로의 스위칭이 가능하며, 프라이머리 서버의 과중한 트래픽으로 인해 발생할 수 있는 오버헤드를 줄이기 위해 실제 서비스를 처리하는 리얼 서버들을 클러스터링하였다. 또한 mon 기법을 이용하여 리얼 서버들의 상태를 모니터링함으로써 리얼 서버들의 추가 및 삭제가 용이하며, 웹 서버를 위한 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어 기법의 고가용을 제공함으로써 클라이언트에 대하여 안정성 및 신뢰성을 보장한 고가용의 서비스를 제공하는 웹 서버를 구현하였다.

  • The k-out-of-n system with mixed redundancy is defined as k-out-of-n system which both includes warm-standby and cold-standby components. In case that operating components in the system fail and the system needs quick transition of standby components to operation state, the k-out-of-n system with mixed redundancy is useful for decreasing system failure rate and operational cost. Reliability-Redundancy Optimization Problem (RROP) involves selection of components with multiple choices and redundancy levels for maximizing system reliability with constraints such as cost, weight, etc. A solution methodology by using harmony search algorithm for RROP of the k-out-of-n system with mixed redundancy to maximize system reliability was suggested in this study.

  • A k-out-of-n standby system is considered where all of its components are s-independent and classified either working or cold standby connected with imperfect switches. The probability density function of the life length for this system is established in closed form, when the underlying components have constant failure rates. Also the reliability function of the system is derived. Finally, the reliability functions for one, two and three out of four systems are deduced for perfect or imperfect switches and identical or non-identical constant failure rates for working and standby components.

  • This paper is to investigate the approximate confidence limits of the reliability performances (such as failure rate, reliability function and average life) for a cold standby series system. The Bayesian approximate upper confidence limit of failure rate is obtained firstly, and next Bayesian approximate lower confidence limits for reliability function and average life are presented. The expressions for calculating Bayesian lower confidence limits of the reliability function and average life are also obtained, and an illustrative example is examined numerically by means of the Monte-Carlo simulation. Finally, the accuracy of confidence limits is discussed.

  • The reliability is defined as a probability that a system will operate properly for a specified period of time under the design operating conditions without failure and it has been considered as one of the major design parameters in the field of industries. Reliability-Redundancy Optimization Problem(RROP) involves selec tion of components with multiple choices and redundancy levels for maximizing system reliability with constraints such as cost, weight, etc. However, in practice both active and cold standby redundancies may be used within a particular system design. Therefore, a redundancy strategy(active, cold standby) for each subsystem in order to maximize system reliability is considered in this study. Due to the nature of RROP, i.e. NP-hard problem, A Parallel Particle Swarm Optimization(PPSO) algorithm is proposed to solve the mathematical programming model and it gives consistently better quality solutions than existing studies for benchmark problems.

  • In this paper we derive estimations of the parameters included in the distribution of the lifetime of k-out-of-m cold standby system with imperfect switches. Maximum likelihood and Bayes procedures are followed to get such estimations. Numerical studies, using Monte Carlo simulation method, are given in order to explain how we can utilize the theoretical results derived, and to compare the performance of the two different methods used. The criterion of comparisons is the mean squared errors associated with each estimate.

  • This paper deals with the effectiveness analysis of an engineering system, which has two units of different strengths in parallel and one unit as a cold standby unit. Failure times for all the units have negative exponential distribution whereas their repair times have general distribution. Single server caters the need for the system. The effectiveness analysis of the system is done by using regenerative point technique. The different measures of effectiveness such as mean sojourn time, mean time to system failure, availability, busy period, etc, are derived. Cost factors also taken into consideration.

  • As the functions and structure of the system are complicated and elaborated, various types of structures are emerging to increase reliability in order to cope with a system requiring higher reliability. Among these, standby systems with standby components for each major component are mainly used in aircraft or power plants requiring high reliability. In this study, we consider a standby system with a multi-functional standby component in which one standby component simultaneously performs the functions of several major components. The structure of a parallel system with multifunctional standby components can also be seen in real aircraft hydraulic pump systems and is very efficient in terms of weight, space, and cost as compared to a basic standby system. All components of the system have complete operation, complete failure, only two states, and the system has multiple states depending on the state of the component. At this time, the multi-functional standby component is assumed to be in a non-operating standby state (Cold Standby) when the main component fails. In addition, the failure rate of each part follows the Weibull distribution which can be expressed as increasing type, constant type, and decreasing type according to the shape parameter. If the Weibull distribution is used, it can be applied to various environments in a realistic manner compared to the exponential distribution that can be reflected only when the failure rate is constant. In this paper, Markov chain analysis method is applied to evaluate the reliability of multi-functional multi-state standby system. In order to verify the validity of the reliability, a graph was generated by applying arbitrary shape parameters and scale parameter values through Excel. In order to analyze the effect of multi-functional multi-state standby system using Weibull distribution, we compared the reliability based on the most basic parallel system and the standby system.

  • 고가용도 클러스터 시스템에서 가동되는 인터넷 기반 소프트웨어의 복잡도가 증가됨에 따라 소프트웨어의 설계, 구현, 또는 그 밖의 여러 가지 원인과 관련된 결함으로 인하여 시스템 서비스의 오동작 또는 수행 중단으로 이어지는 사례가 늘어나고 있다. 특히 대량 트랜잭션을 처리하는 인터넷 기반 컴퓨팅 소프트웨어는 빈번한 통신 두절과 데이터 유실로 인하여, 이들이 탑재된 클러스터 시스템의 결함 발생이 더욱 심각할 가능성이 높다. 본 연구는 소프트웨어 재활 결함 허용 기법을 활용하여, 별도의 추가되는 하드웨어 없이도 가용도를 개선할 수 있다는 '소프트웨서 재활 기법을 적용한 다중계 시스템 가용도 분석'에 관한 논문에서 언급된 문제점들에 대한 해결 방안을 제시하였으며, 구체적으로는 1) 주서버의 고장 발생시 여분서버로의 작업전이(switchover) 상태를 클러스터 시스템 모델링에 포함시켰으며, 2) 작업전이 상태와 재활(rejuvenation) 상태에서 머무는 시간을 지수분포 대신에 k-stage Erlangian 분포를 사용하여 확정시간(deterministic time)을 표현할 수 있도록 하였다. 즉 본 논문에서는 고가용도 cold standby 클러스터 시스템의 운영 상태에 대한 상태전이도(state transition diagram)에서, 임의의 상태에서 머무는 시간분포가 memoryless 성질을 만족하지 않아도 되는 semi-Markov 프로세스 문제를 해결하였다.

  • The purpose of this study is to demonstrate and analyze the function of a Smart Plug before and after it is applied on the electrical appliances by controlling standby power usage. The research measures and analyzes the amount of electrical energy used while activating the Smart Plug with two types of appliances in a university facilities. The smart plugs were applied into a Group 1 appliances (Multi-function device, computer, laptop, Air con) which completely hinder the standby power, and a Group 2 appliances (Refrigerator, cold and hot water dispenser) which does not completely hinder the standby powers due to the characteristics of the function. First, the total standby power saving of all electrical appliances (Group 1 and Group 2) using the Smart plug was measured as 4.59%. Second, the energy saving of the Group 1 products was analyzed as 26.43%. Third, the standby power saving of the air conditioners from mid October to early December was measured as 31.06%, during the seasons when air conditioning was not actively in use. The research indicates that all specified appliances did have better energy efficiency with the Smart plug regardless of the amount of energy usage.
