Currently, different medical institutions have been carrying out the e-healthcare system project. The system includes electronic medical record and prescription delivery system, and, the Medical Treatment law permits electronic signature for medical record management, which reduced the relevant costs and enabled sharing medical record. And medical solution using online certificates is expanding its application. In that light, the role of certificates became more important than ever. However, in contrast to active effort made to manage personal certificates, certificates related to medical solutions and other types of work are not being managed properly. Most work-related certificates are saved in office computers, which makes them vulnerable to various security threats. Although certificate servers can be used as a solution to this problem, hospitals must build the server separately and, therefore, small and medium-size hospitals can be reluctant to bear the burden. This study proposed a way to design and implement an effective and secure certificate management system by save the certificate file as a BLOB, using existing resources without needing to build a separate certificate server, at minimized costs.

In this paper, studied condenser operating management which is affecting power plants efficiency considering the cost of poor quality. Sea water temperature and condenser pressure have clear correlation in S power plants. As the sea water temperature changes, condenser pressure changed -1.7~+20 mmHg from design condenser pressure(38.1 mmHg). Use the heat rate correction curve from manufactory company, realized that efficiency and cost of poor quality changed 0.0201%, 12,830 won/h at Unit #1,2 but 0.0155%, 9,832 won/h when condenser pressure 1 mmHg rise. Also, checked that it is changed depend on seasonal corresponding operation, plant ageing and the point of preventive maintenance like overhaul maintenance. This study said if we considered complying with management range and planning overhaul maintenance, then it could help reducing operating maintenance losses minimum 2.5 billion won per 1 year (case : Unit #1, forty days maintenance).

This paper presents a method for analyzing the size and economic sensitivity of a new renewable hybrid generation system according to changes in the component replacement costs based on HOMER (Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewables). The design of a hybrid system can be optimized by reducing the size of a sensitive component based on sensitivity analysis using the change in cost of a component. Sensitivity analysis can also provide information on what combinations are necessary for the optimal hybrid system. As an example, sensitivity analysis was performed on the residential load provided by HOMER, and the effects of component replacement costs on the system size and cost were quantitatively analyzed.

WDM-PON has been receiving much attention as a key technology to FTTH. As the cost of WDM-PON heavily depends on the number of transceivers implemented at ONU, one of its shortcomings comes from the fixed provision of wavelength resource, which is tightly coupled with costly transceivers. In this paper, we propose a cost-effective WDM-PON architecture for dynamic resource provision. The proposed architecture is based on hierarchical grouping of multiple ONUs into a logical group and hierarchical sharing the resource. For high utilization of dynamic resource, the dynamic resource allocation algorithm is also proposed. We analyze the system efficiency in term of dynamism of system resource and system cost. We also verify that the proposed resource allocation algorithm achieves a high dynamism on resource allocation, and at the same time maintains the fairness between ONUs.

In the second part of the paper, a design strategy for an apartment complex constructed at a railway depot is proposed for vibration reduction purposes. Various design parameters such as the vehicle operating speeds, artificial land behavior, housing support structure, and apartment sub-structures are individually examined to reduce the transmission of vibrations through building structures. Building construction on an artificial land should be subjected to regulations that require the application of a vibration reduction scheme based on the mechanics that govern the vibration transmission phenomena. The implementation of these parameters at an early design stage will provide a quiet living environment for residents who may be exposed to excessive noise and vibration.

Allocative efficiency measures the extents to which the technically efficient units falls shorts of achieving minimal cost. By using this measure manager can make decision about how to redistribute organizational resources to improve price efficiency. Allocative and overall efficiency are derived on the basis of budget line and cost minimization concept. The purpose of this study is to introduce the concept of allocative efficiency and propose two modified DEA models. Examples are provided to illustrate the similarities and the application procedure of the two model. By providing example and tracing the data application procedure, we found the same results but some cautions are needed to interpret the valuation.

The cost on transmission and erection of the precast prestressed concrete members largely depends on the weight of them. Optimum process is performed on a U-beam section to control the prestressing force, to reduce the self-weight, and to meet the required strength and stability. The strength, deflection, and concrete stress at the top and bottom of the section considered are required to check according to each construction step in this process. The weight of the original rectangular concrete beam could be reduced up to 39∼50％ from this method. Two full scale prototype U-beams were proposed and tested in this study. It was found that the U-beams in the test showed good performance in strength and serviceability within the limits of ultimate strength design method.

This paper proposes efficient digital hardware design method by using fixed weight of pre-trained neural network. For this, arithmetic operations of PEs(Processing Elements) are represented with matrix-vector multiplication. The relationship of fixed weight and input data present bit-level array structure architecture which is consisted operation node. To minimize the operation node, this paper proposes node elimination method and setting common node depend on bit pattern of weight. The result of FPGA simulation shows the efficiency on hardware cost and operation speed with full precision. And proposed design method makes possibility that many PEs are implemented to on-chip.

Rolling stock is the method of railway transportation. Especially, in the subway system which has short headways particularly during the rush hours, even one train's trouble on the main line might influence the whole line. Accordingly, to prevent a train trouble on the main line, high expense is used for the maintenance parts, workforce and facilities, etc. according to the preventive maintenance program. Therefore, in designing a EMU, emphasis should be put on the minimization of trouble and its extending influence on the mainline with the priority of safety and reliability. Seoul subway line 5 is the line that complements the first stage Seoul subway(lines 1,2,3 and 4) and is built deeply with many curved sections causing lots of dust. Studies were made to find out the importance of car design, selection of specifications and continuous maintenance on the basis of the analysis and countermeasure of the line 5 EMU inverter trouble case.

Uncertainties are unavoidable in engineering applications. In this paper we propose an alpha reliable multi-variable network design problem under demand uncertainty. In order to decide the optimal capacity enhancement, three performance measures based on 3E(Efficiency, Equity, and Environmental) are considered. The objective is to minimize the total budget required to satisfy alpha reliability constraint of total travel time, equity ratio, and total emission, while considering the route choice behavior of network users. The problem is formulated as the chance-constrained model for application of alpha confidence level and solved as a lexicographic optimization problem to consider the multi-variable. A simulation-based genetic algorithm procedure is developed to solve this complex network design problem(NDP). A simple numerical example ispresented to illustrate the features of the proposed NDP model.
