This paper describes a new technique known as specification-based regression testing that is used for the revalidation of concurrent programs after changes are made to specifications. This type of regression testing requires sequencing constraint that specify precedence relations on the synchronization events. In order to extract sequencing constraint automatically, we use Message Sequence Charts(MSCs) that are considered partial and nondeterministic specifications. We show how to identify which sequencing constraint is affected by the modifications made to a specification rather than creating new sequencing constraint from scratch to reduce the cost of regression testing. We also describe how to determine that each affected sequencing constraint is satisfied by a program being tested.

In optical scanning holography, 3-D holographic information of an object is generated by 2-D active optical scanning. The optical scanning beam can be a time-dependent Gaussian apodized Fresnel zone plate. In this technique, the holographic information manifests itself as an electrical signal which can be sent to an electron-beam-addressed spatial light modulator for coherent image reconstruction. This technique can be applied to 3-D optical remote sensing especially for identifying flying objects. In this paper, we first briefly review optical scanning holography and analyze the resolution achievable with the system. We then present mathematical expression of real and virtual image which are responsible for holographic image reconstruction by using Gaussian beam profile.

실세계에서 발생하는 많은 문제들은 주어진 제약조건들을 만족하는 범위내에서 해를 찾는 제약만족문제(CSP)의 개념으로 설명될 수 있으며, 이러한 문제들의 해결을 위해 인공지능 및 OR 분야에서 활발한 연구가 계속 되어왔다. 본 연구는 대표적 논리언어인 prolog에서 유한이산 도메인 및 수치 제약조건의 해결을 위한 제약해결기에 대한 연구이다. 본 연구에서 구현된 제약해결기에서는 포워드체킹(FC)을 사용하여 조합적 문제를 효과적인 도메인 여과를 통해 탐색공간 및 탐색시간을 축소시키며, 또한 최적화 문제의 해결에 있어서도 그 문제에 주어진 목적함수와 FC의 장점을 조화 시킴으로써 최적해를 더욱 효과적으로 발견한다.

실시간 감시(monitor) 및 제어(control) 시스템의 데이터베이스는 계속적으로 감지기(sensors)에 의해 갱신된다. 연속적인 데이터의 변화에 의한 제약조건(constraints) 위반은 시스템에 심각한 문제를 발생시킨다. 이러한 시스템의 감시 및 제어를 능동적(active)으로 제공하기 위한 기능의 보편적인 형태로 능동규칙(Active rules)을 사용한다. 능동규칙은 정의된 사건(event)이 발생하면, 데이터베이스 상태의 변화에 대한 조건(condition)에 의해 행동(action)을 수행한다. 무결성(integrity) 제약조건을 능동규칙으로 선언함으로써 데이터베이스의 상태를 감시 및 제어하는 것이다. 일반적으로 사용되어온 능동규칙은 제한적인 시간상 무결성 제약조건 검사를 허용하고 있으며, 최근 능동규칙을 사용하여 시간상 연속적인 데이터베이스의 변화에 대한 제약조건 및 트리거(trigger)를 제공하기 위한 연구의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 이 논문은 사건 빈도와 연합된 시간상에 연속적인 데이터베이스 상태 변화의 확장된 시간조건 상술을 지원하는 시간능동 규칙을 제안한다.

We propose a framework for representing and processing uncertain knowledge on the basis of constraint satisfaction. A system of equations and/or inequalities can be considered as a set of constraints that should be solved, and each constraint in the set is transformed into a corresponding logical formula which can be solved through a constraint solving program. Most of rule-based systems, for instance, use a simple probabilistic theory in order to maintain uncertain knowledge, therefore uncertain knowledge can be represented and processed in the constraint satisfaction program quite efficiently.

Evolutionary algorithms, which are frequently used in an automatic calibration of watershed runoff simulation models, are unconstrained optimization algorithms. An additional method is required to impose constraints on those algorithms. The purpose of the study is to modify the SCE-UA (shuffled complex evolution-University of Arizona) to impose constraints by a penalty function and to improve performance of the automatic calibration module of the SWMM (storm water management model) linked with the SCE-UA. As indicators related to peak flow are important in watershed runoff event simulation, error of peak flow and error of peak flow occurrence time are selected to set up constraints. The automatic calibration module including the constraints was applied to the Milyang Dam Basin and the Guro 1 Pumping Station Basin. The automatic calibration results were compared with the results calibrated by an automatic calibration without the constraints. Error of peak flow and error of peak flow occurrence time were greatly improved and the original objective function value is not highly violated in the automatic calibration including the constraints. The automatic calibration model with constraints was also verified, and the results was excellent. In conclusion, the performance of the automatic calibration module for watershed runoff event simulation was improved by application of the penalty function to impose constraints.

강의시간표 문제(Lecture timetabling Problem)는 일주일을 기본으로 하는 특정 시간대 별로 학생(Course-class), 교수, 그리고 강의실과 같은 자원에 대한 스케줄링 문제로서 각각의 자원에 대하여 적절한 조합으로 제약조건들 사이의 충돌을 최소화하여 자원을 배치하는 할당문제이다. 강의시간표 문제는 수천 명 학생들에 대하여 개개인의 시간표를 작성해야 하므로 기하급수적으로 증가하는 탐색공간에 대하여 최악의 경우 탐색 시간이 지수적으로 증가하는 NP-complete Problem이다. 이러한 거대하고 복잡한 강의시간표 문제는 계층적으로 분할하여 기능별로 처리하면서 제약조건을 협상하도록 하는 각 모듈 단위의 에이전트를 구성하므로 좀 더 작고 단순한 문제로 변환될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 방대한 탐색 공간과 과잉-제약조건(Over-constraint)문제의 하나인 강의시간표 작성 문제를 분산제약조건 만족 문제 특성을 이용하고 다중 에이전트 구조를 사용하여 해결하는 강의시간표 자동화 시스템 설계를 제안한다.

Purpose of this study is understanding of group modeling process focusing on constraints with geological field trip applied on social-construction of scientific model. This study was carried out on 12 students of 3 groups who participate in the study 'S' gifted education center. Students were conducted to theme of 'How was formation of Mt. Gwanak?' on 2 field trip classes and 3 modeling classes. Semi-structured interviews, all discourse of field trip and modeling classes, records of personal and group activity were analyzed to constraints based on theoretical background proposed by Nersessian (2008). Results as follows. First, sources of constraints are scientific knowledge, contents observed by students during field trips and additional materials things to be explained by model during modeling class with geological field trip applied on social-construction of scientific model. Second, there are 3 types of constraints to affect making group modeling. It is that shared constraint which used commonly by all the group members. It called selected constraint that used during the initial modeling and later were reflected on for use in the group modeling. And it is that generated constraints, which were not in the initial modeling but were used later in the group modeling. This study suggests that not only the constraints can help to understand of making group model through how they used but also show that example of learning with geological field trip on social-construction of scientific model to contribute school science.

Many techniques have been proposed to store and query XML data efficiently. One way achieving this goal is using relational database by transforming XML data into relational format. It is important to transform schema to preserve the content, the structure and the constraints of the semantics information of the XML document. Especially, key constraints are an important part of database theory. Therefore, the proposal technique has considered the semantics of XML as expressed by primary keys and foreign keys. And, the proposal technique can preserve not only XML data constraints but also the content and the structure and the semantics of XML data thru transformation process. Transforming information is the content and the structure of the document(the parent-child relationship), the functional dependencies, semantics of the document as captured by XML key and keyref constraints. Because of XML schema transformation ensures that preserving semantic constraints, the advantages of these transformation techniques do not need to use the stored procedure or trigger which these data ensures data integrity in the relational database. In this paper, there is not chosen the ID/IDREF key which supported in DTD, the inheritance relationship, the implicit referential integrity.

공간 질의 제약조건 검증을 위해서는 다양한 공간객체와 이에 대응하는 복잡한 공간 연산자를 고려한 최적화가 필요하다. 그러나 이에 대한 연구가 아직은 미진한 상태이고, 공간 데이터베이스 시스템의 공간 술어는 기존의 단순 비교 술어와 비교할 때 수행시 많은 시간이 소비되기 때문에 기존의 질의 최적화 기법을 공간 최적화 기법에 적용하기에는 부적합하므로 공간 술어가 포함된 제약 조건이나 질의에 대해 효과적인 최적화 기법의 확장이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 공간 제약조건 검증시 최적의 수행계획을 얻기 위하여 먼저 중복되는 공간 연산을 제거하고 공간 연산을 위한 선택인자와 복잡도를 계산하여 산출된 랭킹을 기반으로 재배치 기법을 사용하는 공간 제약조건 최적화 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 선택인자와 데이터베이스 접근시간 뿐만 아니라 공간 연산의 복잡도까지 반영하므로 최적화된 수행계획을 얻을 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있으며, 향후 공간 질의의 최적화 기법에도 적용이 가능하다.
