In selecting the best project in multi-criteria decision making problems, the imperfect information of consequence and the vague preference of the decision maker(DM) would make the decision analysis more complex together with the conflict of several criteria. In this context, a method is proposed to deal the fuzzy information mentioned before instead of reducing it to a single representative value. And, based on the given imprecise information, projects are ranked completely or partially according to DM's vague preference. The procedure consists, for each pair of projects, of calculating the degree of supporting over all criteria and the degree of opposing with respect to each criterion for their outranking relation. Together with weights for each criterion, these indices produce fuzzy outranking relations for each pair of projects. And a complete or partial ranking of projects is obtained according to outranking degrees considering the interdependence among projects.

The current load combination criteria for design of nuclear power plant structures(NPP) are not based on the probability-based design concept but rely on the conventional design concept. In this paper, a load combination criteria for design of NPP containment structures are proposed based on a FEM-based random vibration analysis. More accurate reliability analyses under various dynamic loads such as earthquake loads were made possible by incorporating the FEM and random vibration theory, which is different from the conventional reliability analysis method, In this paper, the toad factors for the design of NPP structures in Korea are proposed by considering appropriate load combination criteria for design.

Laboratory experiments are performed for staple fibre -nonwoven geotextiles which have been widely used in Korea to investigate the filter characteristics of soil/geoteztile system under alternating flow conditions. It is experimentally examined the effects of various design factors such as alternating hydraulic gradient, alternating period, vertical load, gradation and density of foundation soil on the filter structure, vertical permeability and soil retention of soil/geoteztile systems. Based on the experimental results, alternating flow filtration criteria- retention criteria and permeability criteria-for staple fibre-nonwoven geotextiles made in Korea are suggested.

Korean Ministry of National Defense has criteria for military facilities but most were made with the focus on design criteria of facilities and especially in the case of information and communication, only overall criteria with the level of conceptual design are suggested without details. By comparing the design standards of ICAN and I3A that are applied in US Department of Defense, this study will suggest the desirable design standard of Korean military on command/control facilities and general/administrative facilities.

The Evaluation system of Excellent Construction Technology has been operated for 15 years from 1990 in Korea. 443 technologies have been certified as Excellent Construction Technology(ECT) and those ECTs are adapted over 20,000 times into the construction projects. As a result of investigation, new technology evaluation system became a stable stage because new technology evaluation system has assigned about 433 and also applied more than 20,000 times in construction sites in 2004. However, it was indicated to a large problem that there aren't still detail criteria of cost assessment for using ECTs. Therefore, we analyzed the status and problems of the cost of using ECTs and suggested some useful ideas which are reviewed by various aspects. Specially we suggested specified criteria for the cost assessment of using ECTs. It is based on the scheduled construction cost and determined the rate $({\bullet}{\cdot})$ of using ECTs. To adapt ECTs into construction projects nationwide not only it is very important to certify better new technologies but also it is required to make the criteria of cost assessment for using ECTs.

The building section is providing immediate causes for global climate change problems since it takes about 50% of carbon emission, 20~50% of waste discharge, 33% of energy consumption, 40% of resource use, and 17% of water consumption. So, many countries over the world have developed and implemented green building certification systems to assess sustainable performances of buildings since the early 1990s. In korea, the green building certification system to induce the diffusion of sustainable buildings was first introduced in 2002 and developed as an improved version of the G-SEED(Green Standard for Energy and Environmental Design) system in 2013 after major revisions of related legislations. This research conducts a survey targeting residents on an apartment building that was certified as green building and examines the importance of assessment criteria on apartment buildings to certify green buildings using the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) method. And it proposes a new direction on certification assessment standards from the resident's prospective. As a result, assessment criteria such as indoor environment, ecological environment, energy & environment pollution, and maintenance management among 7 main ones turned out important on assessing the G-SEED system for apartment buildings, while criteria such as material & resource, water circulation management, and land use & transportation did relatively unimportant.

This paper describes a software algorithm for automatic diagnosis of arrhythmia using the criteria of Minnesota code manual. This algorithm provides more accurate and more objective information to medical doctor by standardizing the criteria of diagnosis of arrhythmia. Because this algorithm doesn't need complicated mathematic processing, it carries out the real-time automatic diagnosis that is very important in clinic. The Decision-Table technology suggests the proper results for the given conditions. So it can express clearly the complicated medical problems those are not solved by the mathematical methods. The Decision-Tables have very simple structure. Therefore, it is very easy to correct or expand the system by adding or correcting some rules.

The absence, in the biomass, of glutamic-oxalacetic and glutamic-pyruvic transaminases and the prevalance of gamma-glutamic transpeptidase were taken as basic criteria to differentiate between Erwinia carotovora var. carorovora from E. carotovora var, citrullis and E. toxica. For further identification, detection of cholesterol in the biomass confirmed the toxica species whereas the absence of glucose confirmed the citrullis variety.

To investigate the characteristics of high-ozone occurrences in the Greater Seoul Area(GSA), three high-ozone episodes were selected, for which the ozone warning for concentration above 120 ppb might be issued. The selection was on the basis of morning wind directions and speeds, and daily maximum ozone concentrations measured between 1990 and 1997. The episodes chosen to meet selection criteria were seven days in July 1992, nine days in July 1994, and three days in August 1994, as respectively characterized by southwesterly, easterly, and calm winds in the morning. However, more than 80% of high-ozone days in the GSA were associated with calm winds and the concomitant accumulation of local emission in the morning, rather than being due to transport of ozone or its precursors. This is believed to be the primary reason why ozone concentrations in the GSA varied in a completely different manner even between adjacent monitoring stations. Several premises for initiating research studies for resolving these local variations of ozone concentrations in the GSA are also discussed.

At present, the problem to secure seismic resistance capacity is one of the most important issue in school buildings. However, the range of facilities to consider retrofit or the proper direction of seismic retrofit haven't provided in details. Therefore in this study, a series of school buildings were chosen as established time, and the structure composition and the seismic performance of the school buildings were investigated to get the comprehensive features of seismic resistance capacity in school buildings. At result, it was presented that the member capacities were less than criteria and structure system was showed the brittle behavior at the collapse prevention level at the school buildings before 1990 year. At the school buildings after 1990 year, though it is hard to get general features for various compositions, it was presented that they have problems for seismic performance evaluation in some buildings at life safety level, specially in the direction of X axis. So, considering the introduction process of seismic criteria in Korea, the school buildings before 2005 year should be examined for seismic resistance capacity and the seismic performance should be examined as well as member capacity to resist seismic.
