Using the tangible programming tools, which combines physical objects (e.g. robot) and educational programming language, may help to encourage learners' creative thinking as well as to enhance problem solving ability. That is, learners can have opportunities to simulate problem solving processes through the physical objects, such as robots. Therefore, they can minimize an fixation about problem solving process. These experience is effective to induce creative thinking that is useful to find new solutions and change environment actively. Therefore, we developed a robot based programming teaching and learning curriculum and implemented it in college level introductory programming courses. The result shows that the robot based programming learning has a positive effect in all three factors of learners' creative problem solving potential, especially in a cognitive factor. The cognitive factor includes general problem solving abilities as well as factors that explain creativity, such as divergent thinking, problem recognition, problem representation. These result means that the developed robot based programming teaching and learning curriculum give positive effect to creative problem solving abilities.

Since the high readable source codes help us to understand and modify the program, it is much easy to maintain them. The readability of source code is not only affected by the complexity of algorithms such as control structures but also affected by the coding styles such as naming and indentation. Although various coding standards have been presented for promoting the readability of source codes, it has been usually lost or ignored in a programming course. One of the reasons is that the coding standard is not a hard-and-false rule since it does not contribute to the performance of software. In this paper, we propose a simple automatic system, namely StyleJigsaw, which checks the style of the source codes written by C/C++ or Java. In this system, the coding style score is calculated and visualized as a jigsaw puzzle. To measure the educational effectiveness of StyleJigsaw, several experiments have been conducted on a class students in C++ programming course. According to the experimental results, the coding style score increased about 8.0 points(10.9%) on average using StyleJigsaw. Further, according to a questionnaire survey targeting the students who attended the programming course, about 88.5% of the students responded that StyleJigsaw was of help to learn the coding standards. We expect that the StyleJigsaw can be effectively used to encourage the students to obey the coding standards, resulting in high readable programs.

Many automated dynamic test data generation technique have been proposed. The techniques evaluate fitness of test data through executing instrumented Software Under Test (SUT) and then generate new test data based on evaluated fitness values and optimization algorithms. Previous researches and experiments have been showed that these techniques generate effective test data. However, optimization algorithms in these techniques incur much time to generate test data, which results in huge test case generation cost. In this paper, we propose a technique for reducing the time of evaluating a fitness of test data among steps of dynamic test data generation methods. We introduce the concept of Fitness Evaluation Program (FEP), derived from a path constraint of SUT. We suggest a test data generation method based on FEP and implement a test generation tool, named ConGA. We also apply ConGA to generate test cases for C programs, and evaluate efficiency of the FEP-based test case generation technique. The experiments show that the proposed technique reduces 20% of test data generation time on average.

During the past decades,several automatic indexing systems have been developed such as single term indexing.phrase indexing and thesaurus basedidndexing systems.Among these systems,single term indexing has been known as superior to others despte its simpicity of extracting meaningful terms.On the other hand,thesaurus based one has been conceived as producing low retrival rate ,mainly because thesauri do not usually have enough index terms.so that much of text data fail to be indexed if they do not match with any of index terms in thesauri.This paper develops a thesaurus based indexing system THINS that yields higher retrieval rate than other systems.by doing syntactic analysis of text data and matching them with index terms in thesauri partially.First,the system analyzes the input text syntactically by using the machine translation suystem MATES/EK and extracts noun phrases.After deleting stop words from noun phrases and stemming the remaining ones.it tries to index these with similar index terms in the thesaurus as much as possible. We conduct an experiment with CACM data set that measures the retrieval effectiveness with CACM data set that measures the retrieval effectuvenss of THINS with single term based one under HYKIS-a thesaurus based information retrieval system.It turns out that THINS yields about 10 percent higher precision than single term based one.while shows 8to9 percent lower recall.This retrieval rate shows that THINS improves much better than privious ones that only yields 25 or 30 percent lower precision than single term based one.We also argue that the relatively lower recall is cause by that CRCS-the thesaurus included in CACM datea set is very incomplete one,having only more than one thousand terms,thus THINS is expected to produce much higher rate if it is associated with currently available large thesaurus.

Recently, many users discuss and argue with others using replying comments. This implies that a series of comments can be a new source of information since various opinions can be appeared in the dispute. It is important to understand the implicit dispute structure immanent in the comment set. In this paper, we examine the characteristics of disputes using replying comments in the Internet forum sites using a set of test articles with the comments collected from SketicalLeft and Agora, which are famous Internet forum sites in Korea. And we propose a new method for detecting and visualizing the dispute sections and relations from a large set of replying comments. To show the performance of our method, we measured precision, recall, and F-measure. According to the experimental results, the F-measures of the detection of the comments in dispute are about 0.84 (SketpcialLeft) and 0.83 (Agora); those of the detection of the commenter pairs in dispute are 0.75 (SketpcialLeft) and 0.82 (Agora), respectively. Since our method exploits the temporal order of commenters to detect the disputes, it is not dependent on the host language nor on the typos in comments. Also, our method can help the readers to grasp the structure of controversy hidden in the comment set through the visualized view.

The Semantic Web and its related technologies have been opening the era of information sharing via the Web. There are, however, several huddles still to overcome in the new era, and one of the major huddles is the issue of information integration, unless a single unified and huge ontology could be built and used which could address everything in the world. Particularly in the e-business area, the problem of information integration is of a great concern for product search and comparison at various Internet shopping sites and e-marketplaces. To overcome this problem, we proposed an ontology-driven mapping algorithm between heterogeneous product classification and description frameworks. We also peformed a comparative evaluation of the proposed mapping algorithm against a well-Down ontology mapping tool, PROMPT.

최근 분산 컴퓨팅 환경은 급진적으로 광역화되고, 이질적이며, 연합형태의 광역 시스템 구조로 변화하고 있다. 이러한 환경은 네트워크상에 광범위한 서비스를 제공하는 통신 네트워크 기반에서 구현된 수많은 객체로 구성된다. 더욱, 지구상에 존재하는 모든 객체들은 이름이나 속성에 의해 중복된 특성을 갖는다. 이러한 같은 특성을 갖는 객체들은 중복 객체로 정의된다. 그러나 기존의 네이밍이나 트레이딩 메커니즘은 독립적인 위치 투명성이 결여로 중복된 객체들의 바인딩 서비스 지원이 불가능하다. 서로 다른 시스템 상에 존재하는 중복된 객체들이 동일한 서비스를 제공한다면, 각 시스템의 부하를 고려하여 클라이언트의 요청을 분산시킬 수 있다. 이러한 이유로 본 논문에서는 광역 컴퓨팅 환경에서 중복된 객체들의 위치 관리뿐만 아니라 시스템들간의 부하 균형화를 유지하기 위해서 최소부하를 갖는 시스템에 위치한 객체의 선정하여 동적 바인딩 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 새로운 모델을 설계하고 구현하였다. 이 모델은 네이밍 및 트래이딩 기능을 통합한 서비스에 의해 중복된 객체들에 대한 단일 객체 핸들을 얻는 부분과, 얻어진 객체핸들을 사용하여 위치 서비스에 의해 하나 이상의 컨택 주소를 얻는 부분으로 구성하였다. 주어진 모델로부터, 우리는 Naming/Trading 서비스와 위치 서비스에 의한 전체 바인딩 메커니즘의 처리과정을 나타내고, 통합 바인딩 서비스의 구성요소들에 대만 구조를 상세하게 기술하였다. 끝으로 우리의 모델을 구현하기 위해, 윈도우 운영체제와 Solaris 2.5/2.7에서 사용되는 CORBA 사양을 따르는 VisBroker 4.1과 자바 언어, SQL Server 2000 그리고 LSF를 이용하였다. 그리고 구현 환경과 구성요소에 대한 수행 화면을 보였다.ool)을 사용하더라도 단순 다중 쓰레드 모델보다 더 많은 수의 클라이언트를 수용할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구팀에서 수행중인 MoIM-Messge서버의 네트워크 모듈로 다중 쓰레드 소켓폴링 모델을 적용하였다.n rate compared with conventional face recognition algorithms. 아니라 실내에서도 발생하고 있었다. 정량한 8개 화합물 각각과 총 휘발성 유기화합물의 스피어만 상관계수는 벤젠을 제외하고는 모두 유의하였다. 이중 톨루엔과 크실렌은 총 휘발성 유기화합물과 좋은 상관성 (톨루엔 0.76, 크실렌, 0.87)을 나타내었다. 이 연구는 톨루엔과 크실렌이 총 휘발성 유기화합물의 좋은 지표를 사용될 있고, 톨루엔, 에틸벤젠, 크실렌 등 많은 휘발성 유기화합물의 발생원은 실외뿐 아니라 실내에도 있음을 나타내고 있다.>10)의 $[^{18}F]F_2$를 얻었다. 결론: $^{18}O(p,n)^{18}F$ 핵반응을 이용하여 친전자성 방사성동위원소 $[^{18}F]F_2$를 생산하였다. 표적 챔버는 알루미늄으로 제작하였으며 본 연구에서 연구된 $[^{18}F]F_2$가스는 친핵성 치환반응으로 방사성동위원소를 도입하기 어려운 다양한 방사성의 약품개발에 유용하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다.었으나 움직임 보정 후 영상을 이용하여 비교한 경우, 결합능 변화가 선조체 영역에서 국한되어 나타나며 그 유의성이 움직임 보정 전에 비하여 낮음을 알 수 있었다. 결론: 뇌활성화 과제 수행시에 동반되는 피험자의 머리 움직임에 의하여 도파민 유리가 과대평가되었으며 이는 이 연구에서 제안한 영상정합을 이용한 움직임 보정기법에 의해서 개선되

This paper presents a method to simulate noise propagation by a computer for outdoor environment. Sound propagated in 3 dimensional space generates reflected waves whenever it hits boundary surfaces. If a receiver is away from a sound source, it receives multiple sound waves which are reflected from various boundary surfaces in space. The algorithm being developed in this paper is based on a ray sound theory. If we get 3 dimensional geometry input as well as sound sources, we can compute sound effects all over the boundary surfaces. In this paper, we present two approaches to compute sound: the first approach, called forward tracing, traces sounds forwards from sound sources. while the second approach, called geometry based computation, computes possible propagation routes between sources and receivers. We compare two approaches and suggest the geometry based sound computation for outdoor simulation. Also this approach is very efficient in the sense we can save computational time compared to the forward sound tracing. Sound due to impulse-response is governed by physical environments. When a sound source waveform and numerically computed impulse in time is convoluted, the result generates a synthetic sound. This technique can be easily generalized to synthesize realistic stereo sounds for virtual reality, while the simulation result is visualized using VRML.

In recent competitive business environment each enterprise has to be agile and flexible. For these purposes run-time monitoring ofservices provided by an enterprise and early decision making through this becomes core competition of the enterprise. In addition, in order to process various innumerable events which are generated on enterprise systems techniques which make filtering of meaningful data are needed. However, the existing study related with this is nothing but discovering of service faults by monitoring depending upon API of BPEL engine or middleware, or is nothing but processing of simple events based on low-level events. Accordingly, there would be limitations to provide useful business information. In this paper, through situation detection an extended complex event model is presented, which is possible to provide more valuable and useful business information. Concretely, first of all an event processing architecture in an enterprise system is proposed, and event meta-model which is suitable to the proposed architecture is going to be defined. Based on the defined meta-model, It is presented that syntax and semantics of constructs in our event processing language including various and progressive event operators, complex event pattern, key, etc. In addition, an event context mechanism is proposed to analyze more delicate events. Finally, through application studies application possibility of this study would be shown and merits of this event model would be present through comparison with other event model.

The purpose of the study was to investigate whether there are differences in confrontation naming ability, generative naming ability, hearing handicap, and depression in community-dwelling elderly by age group, and whether there is any correlation among them, and to find out what factors explain the two naming abilities (confront and generative) of the elderly. Sixty-five community-dwelling elderly people participated: 65~74 years were classified into young-old; 75~84 years into old-old; and 85 years and over into oldest-old. K-BNT-15 for the confrontation naming ability, animal naming test for the generative naming ability, K-HHIE for the subjective hearing handicap, and GDS for the subjective depression were administered. First, there was a statistically significant difference in confrontation naming and depression levels according to age groups. Second, there was a positive correlation between chronological age and subjective depression level and between subjective hearing handicap level and subjective depression level, and a negative correlation between education level and subjective depression level. Third, the confrontation naming score was explained by age, and the generative naming score was explained by subjective depression level. The results show that naming abilities, subjective hearing handicap, and subjective depression level are not simply the result of normal aging and that a convergence approach is needed in various fields to solve the issue.
