The rough design information is only available from BIM(Building Information Model) based schematic design. So, it is difficult to obtain sufficient information for generating BOQ. Like 2D design, there are some problems that the results are depend on what the choice of cost estimator. However, the most research of BIM based cost estimation are focus on quantity takeoff, the consideration of work item for generating BOQ is insufficient. Therefore, this paper present automatic inference process of work items in a BOQ using ontology. The proposed process and ontology is validated through applying tiling construction. If the proposed process is utilized, it is expected the basis of developing generation method for consistent BOQ by resolving intervention of cost estimator's arbitrary decision.

Recently, one of the most challenging Problems is to compose web services dynamically, that is, on demand. In particular, when a functionality that cannot be directly realized by existing services is required, existing services may be combined together to fulfill the request. This paper is to implement the dynamic composition of web services using existing workflow technologies. Workflow systems play a major role in E-businesses. However, due to the composition of web services using workflows differs from the design of traditional workflow systems, two problems need to be solved. (1) how to efficiently discover web services and (2) how to facilitate the interoperability of heterogeneous web services. In this paper, we present a matching algorithm for web service discovery and propose an approach based on the use of ontologies to facilitate the integration of web services. Finally, we have built a prototype system to illustrate how to the dynamic composition of web services are achieved.

Recently, enterprise systems require the necessity of integration for data sharing and cooperation. As a methodology for integration, Service-Oriented Architecture for service integration and Master Data for integration of data, which is used for service, were appeared. This paper suggests a method that operates BP(Business Process) efficiently. We make XMDR(eXtended Meta Data Registry) as knowledge-repository to support the BP and construct data hubs to operate it. XMDR manages MDM(Master Data Management) to integrate the data, resolves heterogeneity between the data and provides relationship to the business efficiently. This is composed of MDR(Meta Data Registry), ontology and BR(Business Relations). MDR describes relationship between meta data to solve structured heterogeneity. Ontology describes semantic heterogeneity and relationship between data. BR describes relationship between tasks. XMDR data hub supports the management of master data and interaction of different process effectively.

We in this paper propose a semantic search system based on Korean medicine ontology. Semantic search augments search results and improves search accuracy by understanding which concept denotes terms which users is trying to find. Our semantic search system also provides these semantic search capabilities. Moreover, search scenarios which is meaningful in Korean medicine are designed and implemented by analyzing the semantics of Korean medicine ontology. Therefore, our system can help users find the useful search results with respect to Korean medicine by providing the more meaningful information as well as the connected information in ontology.

네트워크 환경과 컴퓨팅 기술이 발전하고 모바일 디바이스의 수가 증가함에 따라 상황 인식 서비스(Context-Aware Service)의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 최근 몇 년 동안, 상황 인식 서비스(Context-Aware Service)를 실현하기 위한 여러 연구가 진행되었지만, 해결해야 할 문제점들이 남아있다. 기존의 접근 방법들은 상황에 적합한 서비스나 추천 알고리즘을 도입함에 있어서 특정 응용(Application)이나 영역(Domain)에 종속적이고 유연성이 떨어진다는 문제가 있다. 또한 온톨로지 추론 엔진에 서비스 제공을 위한 대부분의 정보 표현과 추론을 전가하기 때문에 실제 서비스에 활용할 수 있는 정도의 성능을 기대하기 어려우며 확장성(Scalability)이 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 서비스 요청과 서비스 처리 계층으로 계층을 분리하고 두 계층에서의 온톨로지 추론 엔진과 관계형 데이터베이스의 역할을 명확히 정의함으로써 이와 같은 문제점들을 해결하는 실용적(Practical)인 상황 인식 서비스 전달 프레임워크(Context-Aware Service Delivery Framework)를 제시하고. 시나리오를 통해 서비스 프로세스를 설명한다. 제시된 프레임워크는 현재 프로토타입의 개발을 진행 중이다.

본 논문에서는 위키피디아의 '틀(temp late)'을 기조로 하여 작성된 온톨로지인 OntoCloud의 신뢰도를 보장하고 공유 및 재사용을 가능하게 하기 위하여 또 다른 어휘집합체인 워드넷(WordNet)과의 매핑을 한다. 온톨로지 매핑 기술은 온톨로지 개발 기술의 한 방법으로, 서로 비슷한 도메인을 대상으로 이미 구축되어진 서로 다른 다수의 온롤로지를 연결시킴으로서 하나의 풍부한 정보를 가지고 있는 연결망을 구축하는 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 OntoCloud와 워드넷을 두개의 온톨로지로 정의하고 각 온톨로지의 개념에 대한 정의문 비교 방법을 통해서 두개의 온톨로지에 존재하는 유사한 개념을 연결한다. 이렇게 매핑된 정보들은 OntoCloud 개념을 워드넷 어휘로 연결함으로써 개념에 대한 직관적인 이해를 돕고, 워드넷에 연결된 다른 시소러스 (예: SUMO, CoreNet 등)와 간접적으로 연결할 수 있는 틀을 마련한다. 또한 온톨로지의 상하위 계층정보를 자동으로 보강하는 등의 OntoCloud 유지보수에 활용될 수 있다. 본 논문의 실험에서는 두개의 서로 다른 온톨로지의 정의문에 사용된 어휘의 겹침 정도로 두개의 개념의 유사성을 판별하는 방법을 보인다. 본 논문에서 제시한 방법으로 약 73%의 개념 매핑에 성공하였으나, 추후 매핑 프로세스의 전처리 과정(약자 처리 및 복합명사 대응 모듈)을 추가하고 온톨로지의 구조적 특성을 활용하여 유사 개념 자동 매핑 기술을 향상시키고자 한다.

While standardization and its applications for registering and sharing information resources about B2B transactions such as business documents are relatively well developed, it is not easy to register and share business process resources because there are many ways to define complex business processes using different specification(definition) languages. In practice, there are several competing business process specification languages applicable under service-oriented architecture (SOA) such as ebXML BPSS, WS-BPEL, BPMN and so on. A systematic way has to be prepared to register/share diverse and heterogeneous specifications represented using those languages. This paper demonstrates the usefulness of sharing B2B business processes by prototyping a business process registry called ebRR4BP. First of all, we designed a metadata ontology to support the registration of diverse B2B business processes. To implement the proposed metadata ontology using ebXML registries, a mapping scheme to ebXML Registry Information Model is also suggested. The ontology and mapping scheme will be a foundation for supporting common interchange of business process metadata among B2B resistries.

Global warming caused by excessive greenhouse gas emission is causing climate change all over the world. In Korea, greenhouse gas emission from residential buildings accounts for about 10% of gross domestic emission. Also, the number of deteriorated multi-family housing complexes is increasing. Therefore, the goal of this research is to establish the bases to manage energy consumption continuously and methodically during MR&R period of multi-family housings. The research process and methodologies are as follows. First, research team collected the data on project characteristics and energy consumption of multi-family housing complexes in Seoul. Second, an ontology-based breakdown structure was established with some primary characteristics affecting the energy consumption, which were selected by statistical analysis. Finally, a predictive model of energy consumption was developed based on the ontology-based breakdown structure, with application of CBR, ANN, MRA and GA. In this research, PASW (Predictive Analytics SoftWare) Statistics 18, Microsoft EXCEL, Protege 4.1 were utilized for data analysis and prediction. In future research, the model will be more continuous and methodical by developing the web-base system. And it has facility manager of government or local government, or multi-family housing complex make a decision with definite references regarding moderate energy consumption.

This paper presents a method for the multilingual product retrieval agent through XML and the semantic networks in e-commerce. Retrieval for products is an important process, since it represents interfaces of the customer contact to the e-commerce. Keyword-based retrieval is efficient as long as the product information is structured and organized. But when the product information is expressed across many online shopping malls, especially when it is expressed in different languages with cultural backgrounds, buyers' product retrieval needs language translation with ambiguities resolved in a specific context. This paper presents a RDF modeling case that resolves semantic problems in the representation of product information and across the boundaries of language domains. With adoption of UNSPSC code system, this paper designs and implements an architecture for the multilingual product retrieval agents. The architecture is based on the central repository model of product catalog management with distributed updating processes. It also includes the perspectives of buyers and suppliers. And the consistency and version management of product information are controlled by UNSPSC code system. The multilingual product names are resolved by semantic networks, thesaurus and ontology dictionary for product names.

Knowledge-based services are largely dependent upon human-driven works. Therefore, considering human characteristics is required when modeling processes for knowledge-based services. As an emerging technology for Business Process Management, Human Interaction Management and its supportive process management can be an alternative to deal with human-driven processes. However, current HIM does not suggest concrete method for modeling conditions that are essential to realize supportive process management. And the condition modeling of HumanEdj, the only HIM software implemented, reveals the problem of complexity. As a solution, this paper suggests a fact-oriented ontological approach to process modeling. The approach uses human-friendly form of facts for condition modeling.
