Purpose: To evaluate the radiographic characteristics of the tarsometatarsal osteoarthritis with hallux valgus deformity and report the clinical results of the operative treatment. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of 20 patients, 22 feet who had been operated for non-traumatic tarsometatarsal osteoarthritis with hallux valgus (TMT group) and control group of hallux valgus patients without tarsometatarsal osteoarthritis (26 patients, 28 feet) from April 2004 to July 2011. Radiographic characteristics were compared between the groups, using hallux valgus angle, $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ intermetatarsal angle, metatarsal length ratio, metatarsus adductus angle, talonavicular coverage angle, talus-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angle, calcaneal pitch angle and medial cuneiform height. Pre- and postoperative difference of $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ metatarsal declination angle and distance between the $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ metatarsal head were evaluated. The clinical results were evaluated by American Orthopaedics Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot scale and visual analogue scale (VAS). Results: Metatarsal length ratio was significantly larger in TMT group (p<0.001). Metatarsus adductus angle, talonavicular coverage angle, talus-$1^{st}$ metatarsal angle on lateral radiograph, calcaneal pitch angle and medial cuneiform height were different from control group (p<0.001, p<0.001, p=0.001, p=0.010, p=0.006). Postoperative declination of the $2^{nd}$ metatarsal and distance between the $1^{st}-2^{nd}$ metatarsal head were increased (p=0.009, p=0.001). The AOFAS and VAS score were improved (p<0.001, p<0.001). Conclusion: Non-traumatic osteoarthritis of the tarsometatarsal joints seems to be associated with long 2nd metatarsal length, metatarsus adductus and flatfoot deformity. Spur excision may be successful to relieve symptoms when the arthritis was diagnosed in early stage.

Purpose: Calcaneal lengthening osteotomy is one option for the treatment of symptomatic flexible flatfoot in adults. The aim of the study was to evaluate the short term clinical and radiologic results and analyze its complications. Materials and Methods: Twelve feet who had undergone calcaneal lengthening osteotomy without flexor digitorum longus transfer between December 2009 and July 2011 were included. The mean age was 40.6 years (23~75 years). The mean followup was 17.3 months (13~25 months). Clinical outcome were assessed using American Orthopadics Foot ans Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain. Four radiologic parameters were measured from weightbearing radiographs to evaluate the difference between preoperatively and postoperatively measures. To analyze the complications, calcaneocuboid joint subluxation and degenerative change were measured postoperatively. Results: The mean AOFAS score improved from 55.3 points preoperatively to 82.2 points at lastest follow-up (p=0.000). The mean VAS improved from 6.3 points preoperatively to 3.2 points postoperatively (p=0.002).All radiologic parameters, the mean talonavicular coverage angle on AP view, the mean talo-1st metatarsal angle on AP and lateral view and the mean calcaneal pitch angle, significantly improved after calcaneal lengthening osteotomy. Nine feets (75%) were shown the degenerative change in the calcaneocuboid joint at latest follow-up radiographs. Conclusion: Calcaneal lengthening osteotomy for the symptomatic flexible flatfoot in adults produced significant improvement in clinical and radiologic parameters, but calcaneocuboid joint osteoarthritis occurred postoperatively remained a major problem.

공정기술 발달로 인해 칩 내부 집적도가 크게 증가하면서 내부 연결망이 멀티코어 프로세서의 성능 향상을 제약하는 주된 원인이 되고 있다. 내부 연결망에서의 지연시간으로 인한 프로세서 성능 저하 문제를 해결하기 위한 방안 중 하나로 3차원 적층 구조 설계 기법이 최신 멀티코어 프로세서를 설계하는데 있어서 큰 주목을 받고 있다. 3차원 적층 구조 멀티코어 프로세서는 코어들이 수직으로 쌓이고 각기 다른 층의 코어들은 TSV(Through-Silicon Via)를 통해 상호 연결되는 구성으로 설계된다. 2차원 구조 멀티코어 프로세서에 비해 3차원 적층 구조 멀티코어 프로세서는 내부 연결망의 길이를 감소시킴으로 인해 성능 향상과 전력소모 감소라는 장점을 가진다. 하지만, 이러한 장점에도 불구하고 3차원 적층 구조 설계 기술은 증가된 전력 밀도로 인해 발생하는 프로세서 내부 온도 상승에 대한 적절한 해결책이 마련되지 않는다면 실제로는 멀티코어 프로세서 설계에 적용되기 어렵다는 한계를 지니고 있다. 본 논문에서는 3차원 멀티코어 프로세서를 설계하는데 있어서 온도 상승 문제를 해결하기 위한 방안 중 하나인 플로어플랜 기법을 다양하게 적용해 보고, 기법 적용에 따른 프로세서의 성능, 전력효율성, 온도에 대한 상세한 분석 결과를 알아보고자 한다. 실험 결과에 따르면, 본 논문에서 제안하는 온도를 고려한 3가지 플로어플랜 기법들은 3차원 멀티코어 프로세서의 온도 상승 문제를 효과적으로 해결함과 동시에, 플로어플랜 변경으로 데이터 패스가 바뀌면서 성능이 저하될 것이라는 당초 예상과는 달리, 온도 하락으로 인해 동적 온도 제어 기법의 적용 시간이 줄어들면서 성능 또한 향상시킬 수 있음을 보여준다. 이와 함께, 온도 하락과 실행 시간 감소로 인해 시스템에서의 전력 소모 또한 줄일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. As the process technology scales down and integration densities continue to increase, interconnection has become one of the most important factors in performance of recent multi-core processors. Recently, to reduce the delay due to interconnection, 3D architecture has been adopted in designing multi-core processors. In 3D multi-core processors, multiple cores are stacked vertically and each core on different layers are connected by direct vertical TSVs(through-silicon vias). Compared to 2D multi-core architecture, 3D multi-core architecture reduces wire length significantly, leading to decreased interconnection delay and lower power consumption. Despite the benefits mentioned above, 3D design technique cannot be practical without proper solutions for hotspots due to high temperature. In this paper, we propose three floorplan schemes for reducing the peak temperature in 3D multi-core processors. According to our simulation results, the proposed floorplan schemes are expected to mitigate the thermal problems of 3D multi-core processors efficiently, resulting in improved reliability. Moreover, processor performance improves by reducing the performance degradation due to DTM techniques. Power consumption also can be reduced by decreased temperature and reduced execution time.

범용 그래픽 처리 장치의 메모리 설계를 위한 그래픽 처리 장치의 메모리 특성 분석

최홍준,김철홍,Choi, Hongjun,Kim, Cheolhong 한국스마트미디어학회 2014 스마트미디어저널 Vol.3 No.1

소비전력 증가와 같은 문제점들로 인하여, 마이크로프로세서만으로는 컴퓨팅 시스템의 성능을 향상시키기 점점 어려워지고 있다. 이와 같은 상황에서, 대용량 병렬 연산에 특화된 그래픽 처리 장치를 활용하여 중앙 처리 장치가 담당하던 범용 작업을 수행하게 하는 범용 그래픽 처리 장치 기술이 컴퓨터 시스템의 성능을 개선시킬 수 있는 방안으로 주목을 받고 있다. 하지만, 그래픽스 관련 응용프로그램과 범용 응용프로그램의 특징은 매우 상이하기 때문에, 그래픽 처리 장치가 범용 응용프로그램을 수행하는 경우에는 많은 제약 사항으로 인하여 자신의 뛰어난 연산 자원을 활용하지 못하는 실정이다. 일반적으로 그래픽스 관련 응용프로그램에 비해 범용 응용프로그램은 메모리를 매우 많이 요청하기 때문에 범용 그래픽 처리 장치 기술을 효율적으로 활용하기 위해서는 메모리 설계가 매우 중요하다. 특히, 긴 접근 시간을 요구하는 외부 메모리 요청은 성능에 큰 오버헤드이다. 그러므로 외부 메모리로의 접근 횟수를 줄일 수 있는 다중 레벨 캐쉬 구조를 효율적으로 활용할 수 있다면, GPU의 성능은 크게 향상 될 것이 분명하다. 본 논문에서는 다중 레벨 캐쉬 구조에 따른 그래픽 처리 장치의 성능을 다양한 벤치마크 프로그램을 통하여 정량적으로 분석하고자 한다. Even though the performance of microprocessor is improved continuously, the performance improvement of computing system becomes hard to increase, in order to some drawbacks including increased power consumption. To solve the problem, general-purpose computing on graphics processing units(GPGPUs), which execute general-purpose applications by using specialized parallel-processing device representing graphics processing units(GPUs), have been focused. However, the characteristics of applications related with graphics is substantially different from the characteristics of general-purpose applications. Therefore, GPUs cannot exploit the outstanding computational resources sufficiently due to various constraints, when they execute general-purpose applications. When designing GPUs for GPGPU, memory system is important to effectively exploit the GPUs since typically general-purpose applications requires more memory accesses than graphics applications. Especially, external memory access requiring long latency impose a big overhead on the performance of GPUs. Therefore, the GPU performance must be improved if hierarchical memory architecture which can reduce the number of external memory access is applied. For this reason, we will investigate the analysis of GPU performance according to hierarchical cache architectures in executing various benchmarks.

Purpose: Stiffness in the first metatarsophalangeal joint after surgery for hallux valgus has been reported. The goal of this study was to test the efficacy of releasing plantar aponeurosis for improving the range of extension in the first metatarsophalangeal joint that was limited after hallux valgus surgery. Materials and Methods: Thirteen patients (1 man, 12 women [17 feet]; median age, 54.4 years; range, 44~69 years) with limited first metatarsophalangeal joint extension after hallux valgus surgery, who underwent an additional procedure of plantar aponeurosis release between March 2015 and August 2015, were included. Subsequently, the passive range of extension in the first metatarsophalangeal joint was evaluated via knee extension and flexion positions. Hallux valgus angle, inter-metatarsal angle, distal metatarsal articular angle, and talo-first metatarsal angle were measured on weightbearing dorsoplantar and lateral radiographs of the foot preoperatively. Results: The mean range of extension for the first metatarsophalangeal joint improved significantly, from $2.5^{\circ}$ to $40.9^{\circ}$ in the knee extension position (p<0.00). The mean extension range for the first metatarsophalangeal joint also improved, from $18.2^{\circ}$ to $43.2^{\circ}$ in the knee flexion position (p<0.00). In all patients, congruence of the first metatarsophalangeal joint was recovered. Conclusion: Plantar aponeurosis release is an effective additional procedure for improving the extension range of the first metatarsophalangeal joint after hallux valgus surgery.

지난 수십 년 동안 프로세서의 성능은 크게 발전하여 왔다. 하지만, 공정 기술의 발달에 기인한 프로세서의 급속한 성능 향상은 최근 들어 몇 가지 문제점들에 직면하고 있다. 반도체 공정 기술이 크게 발전하면서 회로 집적도가 급속도로 높아짐에 따라서 단위 면적당 소모되는 전력량의 증가와 그에 따른 열섬 현상이 대표적인 문제점으로 인식되고 있다. 이와 같은 최근 상황에서, 최신의 프로세서를 설계할 때에는 전력 효율성 향상과 온도 제어 기술이 반드시 함께 고려되어야만 한다. 본 논문에서는 프로세서에서 소비되는 전력의 상당 부분을 차지하고 있는 명령어 캐쉬의 전력 효율성을 향상시키기 위해 사용되는 대표적인 기법 중 하나인 필터 캐쉬 구조에서 발생하는 필터 캐쉬의 온도 상승 문제를 해결하기 위한 기법을 제안함으로써 저전력과 저온도 유지를 동시에 해결하고자 한다. 제안하는 변형 필터 캐쉬 구조는 세 가지로 분류된다. 프로세서가 명령어를 요청 시 필터 캐쉬와 메인 캐쉬를 선택적으로 접근하도록 하는 바이패스 필터 캐쉬 구조, 동일한 크기의 필터 캐쉬를 하나 더 추가하여 기존의 필터 캐쉬와 추가한 필터캐쉬를일정시간동안 번갈아 접근하도록하는 중복필터캐쉬구조, 그리고기존의필터캐쉬를두 개의독립된 필터 캐쉬로 분할하여 요청 명령어에 따라선택적으로 접근되도록 하는 분할필터 캐쉬 구조이다. 본논문에서는 제안된 변형 필터 캐쉬 기법들의 효율성을 정확하게 측정하기 위하여 Wattch 시뮬레이터와 Hotspot을 사용하여 모의실험을 수행한다. 모의실험결과, 본 논문에서 제안하는 세 가지 기법 중 분할 필터 캐쉬 구조가 저온도 필터 캐쉬유지에 가장 적합한 구조임을 확인할 수 있다. Recently, processor performance has been improved dramatically. Unfortunately, as the process technology scales down, energy consumption in a processor increases significantly whereas the processor performance continues to improve. Moreover, peak temperature in the processor increases dramatically due to the increased power density, resulting in serious thermal problem. For this reason, performance, energy consumption and thermal problem should be considered together when designing up-to-date processors. This paper proposes three modified filter cache schemes to alleviate the thermal problem in the filter cache, which is one of the most energy-efficient design techniques in the hierarchical memory systems : Bypass Filter Cache (BFC), Duplicated Filter Cache (DFC) and Partitioned Filter Cache (PFC). BFC scheme enables the direct access to the L1 cache when the temperature on the filter cache exceeds the threshold, leading to reduced temperature on the filter cache. DFC scheme lowers temperature on the filter cache by appending an additional filter cache to the existing filter cache. The filter cache for PFC scheme is composed of two half-size filter caches to lower the temperature on the filter cache by reducing the access frequency. According to our simulations using Wattch and Hotspot, the proposed partitioned filter cache shows the lowest peak temperature on the filter cache, leading to higher reliability in the processor.
