  • The core idea of the critical regionalism could be summarized as a self-conscious synthesis between universal civilization and world culture. After World War II, it has been applied to architecture for overcoming the problem of Industrial Capitalism and uniformity of 20th century Modern Architecture. Naturally, religious architecture cannot also be an exception in this cultural trend, thus we can also apply the critical regionalism to the Korean Catholic Church Architecture with the basic premise that the Traditional Western and Modern Style Church Architecture should be regarded as universal civilization, and the Traditional Korean Architecture and endemicity as one of world culture. In the context, this article attempts to analyze the regionality of Korean Modern Catholic Church Architecture constructed between the 19th century and 1980's, and how it has been differently transformed with the view of the critical regionalism. Its analysis will be carried out within three types; transformation of the Traditional Korean Architecture and the influence of Japanese Modern Architecture, representation of the Traditional Korean Architecture, and abstraction of the Traditional Korean Architecture with each advantages and disadvantages.

  • Most of the multiplayer games available online are based on a client-server architecture because this architecture gives better administration control to the game providers than peer-to-peer architecture. In this architecture, the server is responsible for all the communication between the connected clients. The weakness of this architecture is its bandwidth requirement and scalability. Peer-to-peer architectures have then been proposed to solve these issues. In this paper, we propose a hybrid client-server architecture in which the game state is partially shared by the mobile terminal to achieve consistency among different players. Like a peer-to-peer architecture, this architecture uses client-side capacities to reduce bandwidth requirements for the server and improves consistency in wireless networks. Client events have different timeliness and consistency requirements according to their nature in the game world. These requirements lead to tasks with different priorities on CPU processing. In the proposed architecture, either the server or the client applies consistency mechanism according to the priority level. Simulation experiments show that the bandwidth of the server in this architecture is smaller than that of the client-server architecture. As a result, the server in the proposed architecture can accommodate more clients with enhancing the scalability.

  • The study is about a finite field multiplying unit, which performs a calculation t-times as fast as the Mastrovito's multiplier architecture, suggesting and using the 2-times faster multiplier architecture. Former studies on finite field multiplication architecture includes the serial multiplication architecture, the array multiplication architecture, and the hybrid finite field multiplication architecture. Mastrovito's serial multiplication architecture has been regarded as the basic architecture for the finite field multiplication, and in order to exploit parallelism, as much resources were expensed to get as much speed in the finite field array multipliers. The array multiplication architecture has weakness in terms of area/performance ratio. In 1999, Parr has proposed the hybrid multipcliation architecture adopting benefits from both architectures. In the hybrid multiplication architecture, the main hardware frame is based on the Mastrovito's serial multiplication architecture with smaller 2-dimensional array multipliers as processing elements, so that its calculation speed is fairly fast costing intermediate resources. However, as the order of the finite field, complex integers instead of prime integers should be used, which means it cannot be used in the high-security applications. In this paper, we propose a different approach to devise a finite field multiplication architecture using Mastrovito's concepts.

  • This research scrutinizes the concept of 'Juchegeonchuk' (self-reliance ideology in architecture), which is a key concept to understand the architecture and urbanism of North Korea in the 1970's and 80's. In the 1970's and 80's, Kim Jong-il began to appear in politics in earnest after Kim Il-sung appointed Kim Jong-il as Kim Il-sung's successor to the next generation. There have been many previous studies about 'Juchesasang' (self-reliance ideology) in various fields, except in architecture. On the other hand, the in-depth research into Juchegeonchuk, which was a method to strengthen Juchesasang, was not good enough in architecture. In this sense, this research investigates the concept of Juchegeonchuk based on the Geonchugyesullon (The Art of Architecture), which embodied the thought of architecture and culture of Kim Jong-il published in 1992. This research scrutinizes the idea of Juchegeonchuk on The Art of Architecture, and its representation in architecture and urbanism in Pyeongyang based on the idea of Juchegeonchuk. It enables to find a new interpretation of North Korea's architecture introduced by Kim, Jong-il in the late 20th century.

  • Architecture is not only coming out of the making of a building room but also contributing to the making of an urban room. "The inside is not a contradiction of the outside...architecturally opened". (De Carli, 1967) The urban room is felt as a sense of rapport between building and city because architecture makes the building room closed simultaneously open toward the city. Architecture exists between both rooms. There is the possibility of integrating, by the conception of interior, architecture and urbanism and thus, the possibility of giving a theoretical ground to Interior Architecture/Design; "all architecture is interior architecture". (Ottolini, 1996) It is in line with the idea of the "Fusing: Landscape/Urbanism/Architecture". (Holl, 2009) The paper deals with, through literature review, a possibility of the fusing: Interior/Architecture/Landscape/Urbanism. The first site explores the meaning of the urban place as a thing, which gives a possibility of combining the building interior and the urban interior. The second site illustrates the idea of the urban interior for dwelling. The urban interior is definitely a place of dwelling to keep human inhabitancy, which takes place in a united interior of the building interior and the urban interior. The third site clarifies the idea of the urban interior. While the building interior gives human being with the private stage, the urban interior provides him with the public stage of city life. The two different interiors constitute an interior world for his trajectory of dwelling. The last site traces the conceptual development of the urban interior. The trace comes to a conclusion that architecture, landscape, and urbanism can be unified by the conception of interior and the urban interior is an object of "Interior Architecture/Design". This paper is theorized as a twofold singular of the building interior and the urban interior. Ultimately, it is relevant to the theoretical principle of fusing interior/architecture/landscape/urbanism, and aims at offering a departing point to consider the urban interior as an object of "Interior Architecture/Design" and for the future studies of the urban interior.

  • Improving the competitiveness of software products in the market involves procuring the means to design software architecture that deliver qualities necessitated by stakeholder requirements within allocated budget, thereby improving the cost-effectiveness of the end product. Currently, software architecture evaluation methods are used to predict and review qualities inherent in software architecture designs and to choose a candidate architecture that delivers desired qualities. Existing software architecture evaluation methods, however, fail to address the cost considerations dependent on the architecture chosen for product implementation. In this paper we suggest a cost estimation method for software architecture which adapts the cost drivers in the software cost estimation model COCOMO II to support cost estimation during architecture evaluation. The suggested method can be performed in coordination with existing software architecture evaluation efforts and supplements existing architecture evaluation techniques with guidelines for identifying and evaluating cost drivers in candidate software architectures without incurring extra overhead. The accuracy of the cost estimation using the suggested method is verified through application of the method to the architecture candidates used in RPS (Robot Patrol System), a surveillance embedded system.

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the rightness of establishing the Essential Act of Landscape Architecture in Korea and to present the legal phase, the legislative system and the construction of a contents at the expected enactment of it. It is necessary to point out the problems of the various fields of landscape architecture and to propose the solutions of them. The contents of the study are as follows, 1 . The number of the regulations related to landscape architecture is a good reason for which the field of landscape architecture is worth being included to the positive law. 2. The problems by items(ordinance, engineer, contract, planning, design and supervision, construction, maintenance, plant and planting, material, aesthetics and sight, environmental conservation and ecology, right and penal regulations) to the domestic related regulations being at issue and the remedies for it shall be considered at the enactment of the Essential Act of Landscape Architecture. 3. The number of the domestic regulations being related to landscape architecture which have a term of\` the Essential Act∼\`is 5. 4. The Essential Act of Landscape Architecture is the separate Essential Act welch defines the scope of landscape architecture as construction works and controls the business essentially. 5. The meaning and character of the Essential Act of Landscape Architecture was examined and the reasons for that essential act were recognized in point of the legal, landscape architectural and educational systems. 6. The creation of new official landscape architectural organization is a reason to justify the enactment of the Essential Act of Landscape Architecture. 7. The legal phase, the legislative system and the construction of a contents of the Essential Act of Landscape Architecture ware presented and this act shall conform to such as the legal system of the Architectural Act, the Essential Act of the Construction Industry and so on. The result of this study will be the basic materials for the creation of the Essential Act of Landscape Architecture.

  • This study is on historiography of Modern Architecture since its beginning to present. As a critical review of the history of the writing history of Modern Architecture, this study tends to be a meta-history and criticism of historical text. This study try to analyse historiographical project of Modern architecture at specific phase since the beginning of modern architecture. The historiography of Modern architecture shows that writing a history is making a discourse of Modern architecture as a imaginative representation to define and justify Modernism in architecture. The analysis of canonic text since early 20th century proves that the history of writing history of Modern architecture played a critical role not only to shape of our ideal but the practice of architecture with a ideology construction in retrospect. With a name of truth or morality they made myths about the modernity in architecture. So we can find deep 'Hagelean Unconscious' in writing history of Modern architecture not even the first generation of historians but the second generation who were influenced by earlier writer in spite of their intention of revision and overcoming, which is in itself the key concept of Hegel's philosophy of History. Under this kind of 'operative' discourse our view point of Modern architecture were confined and the historiography of Modern architecture itself was narrowly defined as a kind of melodrama that a few architect and work of art matters. The rise of critical history fundamentally has changed the way of seeing and writing the history of Modern architecture. but it has also a new kind of dilemma as regard to writing history and involving practice. This review of historiography traces the texts of historians as like Pevsner, Giedion, Banham, Rowe, Tafuri, Frampton, and Curtis relating to different discours making. When we consider Benjamin's famous concept of constellation, writing history necessarily is a kind of montage making in time and we always need to recognize the historicity of historiography.

  • Since 1970s' many hospitals have been built due to the economic growth and change of social policy in Korea. But, we had no sufficient data and design guidelines of planning and designing to get good design solutions. From the first paper on the healthcare architecture issued in 1974, many researches have been performed. Researches could be one of the efforts to solve the problems and satisfy the needs of those periods. Researches could reflect the characteristics of healthcare architecture of those periods. So in this paper 267 papers issued between 1974-2009 were analyzed to get the characteristics patterns of research periodically. This paper aims to provide a basic data for studying of history of healthcare architecture in Korea.

  • The purpose of this study was to get a possibility of maintenance architecture, which present instead of contemporary architecture through interrelation between Organic architecture and Gaia theory. Through this study to fine a interrelation part between Organic architecture and Gaia Theory as general case, and through the Gaia theory, Organic architecture being progress as new design experiment exposition. After modern time, we can have presentation of main subject which corresponds to mechanical rationalism and rising Organic architecture from Organic Holism. Organic architecture is get close to biological or ecological access to nature and environment so from and inner order could apply to architecture after that better circumstances and maintenance(sustain architecture) development could possible, although the point became more importance. In this point, Jim E. Lovelock's Gagia theory which try to proscript relationship(element of enviroment) of earth, this is pretty big deal and we can find a connection with Organic architecture in the theory.
