  • As software projects become larger and more complex, we need to take a more systematic approach to quality assurance. One plausible approach is the use of SQA (software quality assurance) methodology. Since this SQA methodology was not available, our study presents a SQA methodology. This methodology has a repository in which a set of quality assurance tasks with their related techniques and deliverables is defined and from which one can select only appropriate tasks based upon characteristics of project. This study further suggests a rule-based approach for supporting task selection process.

  • Purpose: Patients with head and neck cancer (HNC) who undergo dental procedures during radiotherapy (RT) face an increased risk of developing osteoradionecrosis (ORN). Accordingly, new tools must be developed to extract critical information regarding the dose delivered to the teeth and mandible. This article proposes a novel approach for visualizing 3-dimensional planned dose distributions on panoramic reconstruction computed tomography (pCT) images. Materials and Methods: Four patients with HNC who underwent volumetric modulated arc therapy were included. One patient experienced ORN and required the extraction of teeth after RT. In the study approach, the dental arch curve (DAC) was defined using an open-source platform. Subsequently, pCT images and dose distributions were generated based on the new coordinate system. All teeth and mandibles were delineated on both the original CT and pCT images. To evaluate the consistency of dose metrics, the Mann-Whitney U test and Student t-test were employed. Results: A total of 61 teeth and 4 mandibles were evaluated. The correlation coefficient between the 2 methods was 0.999, and no statistically significant difference was observed (P>0.05). This method facilitated a straightforward and intuitive understanding of the delivered dose. In 1 patient, ORN corresponded to the region of the root and the gum receiving a high dosage (approximately 70 Gy). Conclusion: The proposed method particularly benefits dentists involved in the management of patients with HNC. It enables the visualization of a 3-dimensional dose distribution in the teeth and mandible on pCT, enhancing the understanding of the dose delivered during RT.

  • 한국의 병원 구조에서는 우리 실정에 맞게 QA를 조직하고 운영하여야 한다. QA 실은 원장 직속 기구로 두고, QA 위원회의 자문을 받는다. 의료 보험과 QA의 근원지 국가들에서는 보험 심사실이 없고, 심사 업무를 QA실에서 하고 있다. 심사실과 QA 실이 이미 따로 설치된 병원에서는 이들을 통합하고, QA 실을 신설하고자 하는 병원은 심사실을 QA 실로 전환시킨다. 심사 간호사회가 이를 적극적으로 찬성하고, 이를 수용 할 준비를 하고 있다.

  • Female customers form a major customer group for Internet shopping and their trust on Internet stores seems to be significantly related with their transactions. This paper focuses on female customers' trust on Internet stores, hypothesizing that online service quality has a positive impact on trust and that trust, in turn, together with service quality has a positive effect on loyalty. We investigate trust from three dimensions(benevolence, integrity, and ability) and at the same time, unlike existing research, treat service quality to have five dimensions (intangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy) as known in SERVQUAL(Parasuraman et al., 1988). Survey data is obtained from the female college student sample. Our research model is justified in terms of construct validity, internal consistency, and goodness of fit. Research hypotheses are tested using SEM(Structural Equation Modeling). The results are as follows: First, assurance and empathy dimensions of service quality have significant impacts on benevolence/integrity dimension of trust. Second, out of the five service quality dimensions, only assurance has a positive effect on ability dimension of trust. Third, assurance dimension of service quality and ability dimension of trust are positively related with customer loyalty. The most important factors for female customers' loyalty are found to be assurance(service quality) and ability(trust). The significance of assurance is in line with findings from existing research. But its relationship with the trust dimensions is uncovered in this research, and the only dimension that impacts on ability is assurance. We find that female customers build trust about internet stores based on their ability rather than on their benevolence/integrity and that the female customers' perception on the internet stores' ability can be improved by higher service quality from the aspect of assurance. Importantly enough, these findings offer practical guidelines to Internet stores to boost female customers' loyalty.

  • 본 연구는 프랑스의 품질인증 가이드라인과 한국의 품질인증 평가준거를 비교하고, 이러닝 품질관리에 대한 표준화된 이러닝 품질인증 평가준거를 적용한 품질인증 제도에서 품질인증에 성공한 사례와 실패한 사례를 비교분석함으로써 이러닝 품질인증 평가준거에 대한 주요 평가영역과 평가항목을 구별하였다. 이를 근거로 프랑스의 품질인증 평가항목에서 반영해야할 이러닝 품질인증 평가준거, 평가영역, 평가항목에 대한 일반화 모형을 개발하였다. 이는 우리나라는 물론 AUF와 관련이 있는 아프리카나 아시아 국가들에게 그들이 응용할 수 있는 평가준거를 제시한 것이다. 본 연구의 결과는 이러닝 품질인증 제도를 시행하려는 전 세계의 기관들이 활용할 수 있을 것이며, 동시에 이러닝 품질인증 평가를 받고자 하는 이러닝 관련 기업이나 기관들에게 중요한 활용자료가 될 것이다.

  • The purpose of the research is to analyze the status and problems of the e-Learning quality assurance system on e-Learning contents and service provider(institutes) in the field of enterprise education. In addition, the research is to suggest the direction and strategies for revising and developing the system. The research put emphasis on two systems of the e-Learning quality assurance(contents, service provider) which directly influence financial support of government. This study depended mostly on literature review, supplemented by expert panel meetings. In the case of the quality assurance system on e-Learning contents, the followings are suggested; (1)admitting the contents made of the combination of modules in the approved module set, (2)making easier the qualifying of modified contents for maintenance, (3)revising evaluation criteria, (4)providing substantial feedback. In the field of service provider, the followings are requested; (1)differentiating of qualifying system by industry and scale of company, (2)extending the qualifying cycle, (3)improving the feedback and sharing system.

  • This paper investigates the relation between the Process capability index(PCI) and the quality assurance level under various conditions. The effect of the off-targetness of the process mean, deviation from the nomality, the estimation error, and tile measurement error on the quality assurance level is evaluated. Various distributions such as the Student-t, the chi-square, the gamma, the Weibull, and the log-normal distributions are considered to evaluate the deviation from the nomality. The quality levels under abnormal conditions turn out to be severely different from that under the standard condition. We provide tables and graphs of the quality assurance level on various abnormal conditions. In order for the industry users to use the PCI properly, they should refer to the tables and graphs, especially when they are not certain about the standard assumptions on which the PCI depends.

  • It is anticipated that quality assurance for the Ka band Communication Payload System(COPS) development program of the communication, Ocean & Meteorological Satellite(COMS) may be a core technical factor to be concerned in order to avoid any failure, and to assure its final performance during the mission lifetime in space. Those can be managed and verified and assessed by performing the Quality Assurance (QA) and risk management which helps to prevent and to reduce the critical fails. This paper introduces the Product Assurance (PA) system and procedures for controlling and monitoring sub-contractors which were participated in Ka band Communication Payload System (COPS) development. Also this paper shows Quality Assurance (QA) procedures and detailed their processes for assured the product performed by local companies from site survey for selecting companies to delivery of their equipment.
