The absolute value management method is widely used in the most of the earth retaining construction, which evaluates the safety by comparing measurement result and management criteria. Therefore, the management criteria is the standard to evaluate the safety of the site, and in other words, the criteria is a direct factor of the evaluation. That means that the safety of the site can not be acquired if the management criteria is not proper, even though the measurement system is perfectly set. However, many of field technicians do not have rely on the current management criteria, and they even recognize the necessity of the revision. Therefore, in this study, the necessity of the revision was studied. Also, the optimum criteria selection and the application were performed based on the test results of earth retaining deflection and probabilistic theory. The absolute value management method was used for this study. The details are tabulated.

This paper present a new dynamic HRA (Human Reliability Analysis) method and its application for Quantifying the human error probabilities in implementing an accident management action. For comparisons of current HRA methods with the new method, the characteristics of THERP, HCR, and SLIM-MAUD, which are most frequently used methods in PSAs, are discussed. The action associated with the implementation of the cavity flooding during a station blackout sequence is considered for its application. This method is based on the concepts of the quantified correlation between the performance requirement and performance achievement. The MAAP 3.0B code and Latin Hypercube sampling technique are used to determine the uncertainty of the performance achievement parameter. Meanwhile, the value of the performance requirement parameter is obtained from interviews. Based on these stochastic distributions obtained, human error probabilities are calculated with respect to the various means and variances of the timings. It is shown that this method is very flexible in that it can be applied to any kind of the operator actions, including the actions associated with the implementation of accident management strategies.

In order to make interactive computing systems, including information systems, usable it is important to bring users into the design process. This article surveys and introduces several major system design approaches that are widely accepted as approaches from a users' perspective. A user model developed by the author is introduced following these existing approaches. This user model is developed from actual users' understanding of their goals and strategies to solve their information needs by using Dervin's Sense-Making Theory with Sense-Making Timeline Interviews. This user model reveals a different timeline from the default menu presentation orders that originally comes with the software. Steps for developing a user model from the Sense-Making Timeline Interviews are suggested for further application and guidelines in developing user models for system design and evaluation.

IDEF(Integrated Definition) method, a standard methodology of CALS process modelling, was applied to the weapon system R&D process to provide information modelling by analysing about goal, input, output and constraints in the R&D process. The information to be managed in R&D institutes was identified by using SmartER which is the automation program of IDEF1/1X and obtained information modelling for TO-BE model. The work process of weapon system R&D consists of the concept study phase, the exploration development phase, the system development phase, the prototype manufacturing phase, and the report writing of R&D results phase. The information modelling of weapon system R&D is the R&D work process with information sharing by means of IWSDB Since IDEF is suitable for large scale system development like weapon system R&D, further studies on IDEF would be required to achieve the goal of defense CALS.

The construction industry concentrates their efforts on construction information technology (IT) including construction CALS. However, the actual circumstances for construction IT focuses on building hardware and it neglects importance of business process reengineering (BPR) for construction tasks. A systematic process modeling method and a computerized model by process concept need for building construction BPR. This study develops a generalized BPR procedure for construction projects, and then suggests a new process modeling method for construction BPR that consists of object-related process model (ORPM). Finally, this study develops a web-based ORPM Builder (ORPMB) based on the ORPM methodology, and the applicability of the developed system is verified by a case study with practical construction processes.

The purpose of this study was to present the 6 sigma technique in construction projects, and to review the possibility of 6 sigma introduction. DMAIC (Design, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodology was used to increase the utilization of TIMS (Technology Information Management System). The results of this study were as follows. The introduction of the 6 sigma technique was very effective in the construction industry, but there were many difficulties in its application because of the characteristics of construction. As the 6 sigma technique emphasizes management based on data, it is essential to accumulate historical data and to achieve the standardization of the construction business process. Furthermore, it is necessary to apply 6 sigma for the competitiveness of the construction industry, and the development of suitable 6 sigma methodology for the construction industry is required.

The size and length of road tunnels have been gradually expanded as industry developed. Consequently, the risk has been increased. The decision making process for ventilation system for road tunnels involves a large amount of information on economic feasibility, construction methods, and safety etc. In situation where systematically structured decision making process is unavailable, almost decisions about ventilation systems are made based on engineers' private knowledge and experiences. Procedure and criteria to choose the best optimized ventilation system among many alternatives are proposed, breaking away from the economic dependency-oriented decision making. This paper presents a Multi-Attribute Utility Theory and AHP based function with which planners can calculate overall utility of each alternative. It is anticipated that the effective use of the proposed methodology for decision making on ventilation systems ould be able to reduce the likelihood of the occurrence of potential safety risks as well as increase the overall ventilation performance.

In recent years, we recognize a new paradigm in the development process：From object oriented development, to the development process which has focused on the use of standard components. In recent years a lot of research related to the component-based development has been done, especially in business domain. but still there are many open and unresolved problems in this area. such as established development process for a distributed environment, formal process, infrastructure for COTS, development and management tool considering maintenance to guarantee a proper treatment of components. It also required a service and an application integration for component. In this paper, we propose cooperative information systems (CIS) that supports component based development. It must address for component based systems to achieve their full potential. We identify a set of CIS organized 3-tier which is a presentation layer, business logic layer and data control layer. We also discuss the specific roles and activities for the layers. we also define the behavior and managed information for business logic layer as core level. As an illustration of the CIS, we present a successful considerations which is widely helpful to user when they make decision in component development and assemble. Also, we expect to component reusability and efficiency in business domain.

A secure entrance system is complicated because it should have various functions like monitoring, logging, tracing, authentication, authorization, staff locating, managing staff enter-and-leave, and gate control. In this paper, we built and applied a secure entrance system for a domestic nuclear plant using Aspect Oriented Programming(AOP) and design pattern. Using AOP has an advantage of clearly distinguishing the role for each functional module because building a system separated independently from the system's business logic and security logic is possible. It can manage system alternation flexibility by frequent change of external environment, building a more flexible system based on increased code reuse, efficient functioning is possible which is an original advantage of AOP. Using design pattern enables to design by structuring the complicated problems that arise in general software development. Therefore, the safety of the system can also be guaranteed.

The purpose of this study is to review research trends and issues of coastal geomorphology in general of Korea, which is divided into two periods; the former and later periods of 1990s when The Korean Geomorphological Society was established. In this study, coastal geomorphology in general refers to the landforms except tidal flats and coastal terraces. The descriptive statistics of research papers published in 5 major geography journals since 1990s were computed and these papers were classified according to their main subjects. The methodology for coastal landform study was analyzed by sub-fields of landform change and sediment analysis. The study of coastal geomorphology in Korea started from around 1970s and has progressed significantly in terms of the scope and the number of papers published since 1990s. There is few paper published in 1990s on coastal geomorphology in general, but so many research has achieved and came to be the major part of coastal geomorphology study since 2000s. Further methodology is necessary for morphodynamics study in the future.
