In line with the recent wave of the 4th Industrial Revolution, the environment for defense R&D is transforming into a center of high-tech military technology. In particular, developed countries are strengthening control of technology exports and technology transfer to protect advanced defense science and technology. For this reason, the budget demand for securing the ability to develop independently high-tech weapons and core technologies suitable for the future battlefield environment is increasing, and increasing efficiency in R&D investment has been highlighted for efficient distribution of limited budgets. This study examined the efficiency of the defense basic R&D project using the non-parametric approach, DEA. The R&D budget, R&D researcher, and R&D period were selected as the input variables, and the number of papers and patents were used as output variables. The efficiency of basic R&D projects was analyzed through CCR, BCC models, and SE. Lastly, based on the efficiency measurements, the cause of the inefficiency of R&D projects was suggested, and ways to improve efficiency were suggested. This study is expected to be used as useful information that can be applied to project performance management through efficiency analysis of basic defense R&D projects and be reflected in the project planning stage through feedback.

Purpose : This is study of whether 3-D conformal radiotherapy for carcino-mas of the ethmoid sinus were better than those treated with conventional 2-D plan, Materials and Methods : The 3-D conformal treatment Plans were compared with conventional 2-D plans in 4 patients with malignancy of the ethmoid sinus. Isodose distribution, dose statistics, and dose volume histogram of the planning target volume were used to evaluate differences between 2-D and 3-D plans. In addition. the risk of radiation exposure of surrounding normal critical organs are evaluated by means of point dose calculation and dose volume histogram. Results : 3-D conformal treatment plans for each patient that the better tumor coverages by the planning target volume with improved dose homo-geneity, compared to 2-D conventional treatment Plans in the same Patient. On the other hand, the radiation dose distributions to the surrounding nor-mal tissue organs, such as the orbit and optic nerves are not significantly reduced with our technique, but a substantial sparing in the brain stem and optic chiasm for each patient. Conclusion : Our findings represented the potential advantage of 3-D treatment planning for dose homogeniety as well as sparing of the normal tissue surrounding the tumor. However, further investigational studies are required to define the clinical benefit.

This paper deals with the problem of synthesis of the 3-dimensional Grasp Planning. In previous studies the genetic algorithm has been used to find optimal grasping points, but it had a limitation such as the determination time of grasping points was so long. To overcome this limitation we proposed a new algorithm which employs the Neural Network. In the Neural network we chose input parameters based on the shape of the object and output parameters resulted from optimization with the GA method. In this study the GRNN method is employed, it has been trained by the result value of optimization method and it has been tested by known object. The algorithm is verified by computer simulation.

The sustainable development of local communities is faced with limitation due to poor infrastructure and lack of cooperation among stake-holders. To overcome such circumstances and thus to ensure balanced development of the local communities, the central government is driving construction of innovative cities mainly through transfer of public institutions to local cities. In this study, to contribute to the development of plans for the future agropolis' associated with the transfer of public institutions, efficient organization mechanisms of the agropolis such as basic structure and spatial allocation was examined through analyses of advanced cases(Sophia Antipolis, St. Hyacinthe Science Part Food Valley, Stoneleigh Park) of foreign countries. The analyses showed that the organization of agropolis were consisted of three main components; 1) agricultural and food industry complex conducting R&D, 2) service facilities(information, trade, consulting and advertisement) supporting agricultural and food industries and rural enterprise center in charge of a variety of events including exhibition, rural experience, education, and contest, 3) silver facilities such as hospital and town providing medical service and residence. Based on the results, inventories of facilities which are necessary in 'the future agropolis' and their spatial allocation were suggested.

This paper describes interactive computer procedures for design the forming sequences in cold forging. This system is implemented on the personal computer and its environment is a commercial AutoCAD system. The programming language. AutoLISP, was used for the configuration of the system. Since the process of metal forming can be considered as a transformation of geometry, treatment of the geometry of the part is a key in process planning. To recognize the part section geometry, the section entity representation, the section coordinate-redius representation and the section primitive geometru were adopted. This system includes six major modules such as input module, forging design module, forming sequence design module, die design module, FEM verification module and output module which are used independently or in all. The sequence drawing wigh all dimensions, which includes the dimensional tolerances and the proper sequence of operations, can generate under the environment of AutoCAD. The acceptable forming sequences can be verified further, using the FE simulation.
