In this paper, we propose a design of automated electronic sanction system for management of six sigma projects. The proposed system performs diverse operations such as registering and choosing enterprise-wide enhancement project, managing schedules of the project, verifying the validity of the project, and thus managing the whole life cycle of the project. Each six sigma project is stored in the database repository for facilitation of its later use. The proposed system has been effectively applied in a Korean company, and thus, through the proposed system, we expect the effects of innovation-related and enhancement-related activities which six sigma is fundamentally pursuing.

Nuritkum Square Project is a IT Complex which is being constructed in Digital Media City. The project consists of several buildings and is a Design-build, so that the systematic construction management from design to construction stage is more important for a successful project. This study introduces the practical tasks of construction management during the project and analyze some of main tasks to increase understanding construction management in the design-build project. Based on experience of construction management in this project, we examine managerial problems which frequently occur in this kind of project, and suggest how to improve construction management in Korea.

Capstone design course has been opened in order to improve students' practical project in undergraduate courses. This paper presents the efficient operation method for capstone design course. The proposed capstone design is operated such as outside outsourcing institute of industry, that is, the industry suggests the topics and fourth grade students work on this project during this year, and third grade students take over same project and proceed to improve in next year, so it is the continuous operating. Based on this system, industry can get the desired project outputs, and the university can give practical team project experience for students, so a mutual benefit between the industry and university can be possible. The proposed operating system is actually applied to the department of computer engineering, the questionnaire surveys are performed to participated students and corporate mentors, and then the operating results of the proposed system are analyzed.

The Risks in undertaking a construction project comes from many sources and often involves many participants in the project. This study has identified various kinds of risks, assessed the risk factors quantitatively and suggested risk management method for response pertinent in Design Build(Turn Key)type of projects in Korean context. A questionnaire was designed comprising of 145 possible risks in all types of construction projects. The population from owner, consultant and contractor groups was asked to indicate the risks applicable in DB projects. 25 numbers of critical risks in DB projects were identified and further analyzed for reveling inherent relationship between them through factor analysis. Factor analysis revealed 8 risk factors in DB projects. Construction site related, contract related and design related risk factor consisted about 72% of total risk weight. It has been found out about 6%, while considering the mutual dependency, it is about 10% of total cost of DB project. Therefore, It is suggested that 6% to 10% of construction amount as contingency has to be made provision for risk responses in the DB projects.

The production process of construction industry is different from thing of the general manufacturing, likewise various participants make temporary teamwork for success of the project through sharing of information. But, the each role of participants is Individually changed to step in construction process stage and moreover it has complicated, entangled interests. The CM(so it called Construction Management as an abbreviation word) system was inducted for the effective management and operation of construction project. The key of the CM success depends on the cooperative relationship relation to major participants. There are lots of studies and efforts for the performance measures of the CM, however existing performance index is only measured as the viewpoint of project owner. Therefore it needs to make up for balanced view through combination of the four-way view of participants. In this study, we should search for cooperative relationship of project participants, and then we should suggest to define the difference of project in their viewpoints.

As the recent paradigm of education changes to become learner-centered, there is an increasing interest in project based class as one of new teaching models. Universities are accepting this change and aiming at fostering human resources of next generations, who are able to create creative changes, and studies are being actively conducted to that end. This study suggested a learner-centered teaching model which minimizes intervention of teachers in conducting projects of main text contents in designed subjects. This study suggested support system for the suggested model project-based class, team organization method, various interaction methods of learners, and team work monitoring method of teachers. And the suggestions were designed and realized through project management applications using smart phones which are being used by a rapidly growing number of people recently.

The object of this study is to examine the managerial characteristics of the Korean building projects. The study in this paperproposes to investigate the factors that affect process quality not only in the construction phase but also in all three phases (design, construction, and operation) of the whole life cycle of a building project. A questionnaire survey is conducted to investigate the differences in the perceptions of graduate students, professors, designers and practitioners with regard to process quality in building projects. Analyzing these factors helps in revising and improving the Korean existing quality control system and programs. The findings indicate that cooperation of designer's professionals, level of management leadership in promoting quality, ability to operate the facility within design limits are important factors. Theparticipation percentage of "quality" treated in any course/seminar shows only 45%. It is recommended that college programs include courses that treat the administrative aspects involved in the building project and that continuing education programs rover quality training.

A government agency has been announced to increase 23,663 hundred million wons by cost of design change which occurred in the pre-construction and construction phase. As design change is a phenomenon to occur by means of a characteristic of the building design that standardization is difficult, even if it is said that a perfect design is done in design phase, design change is prevented, and it is going to decrease, and there is a limit. Because there are some causes in all of the construction project, it is change order of client, relative system, unfit design and field condition, etc. In this study, we are suggested logic and basic model of the decision making support process model that it should selecting the optimal alternative through complex and quantitative analyzed: that is cost, performance and constructability as respect Owner or CMr is executing project under the CM delivery system construction project which it occurred design change.

Design quality in constructed project is a primary consideration to achieve overall project objectives. It is not easy to evaluate the design quality because various factors are involved in the design process. This paper presents a new approach to improve the evaluation process of design quality In the construction project The evaluation model is developed to satisfy the requirement for implementing the ISO 9000 Quality Assurance Standards in the design process. It is assumed that design changes are resulted from the poor management of design quality. The model relates design changes to design quality management items. It assigns weight ratio to each design quality item to evaluate quantitatively Design Quality Index (DQI) is calculated to assess design quality based on the Objectives Matrix. A case study is performed to illustrate the practical implementation of the design quality evaluation.

In this paper, a curriculum-based electronic design project with a improved training kit is discussed. Students can raise the practical ability for comprehension and analysis of electronic circuits by the design and assembly of electronic components and measurement practice and learning the process closely. The products of this paper can be utilized as hands-on training for increasing confidence in the improving education for creative practical electronic design ability.
