How can an automated essay scoring (AES) program, which provides feedback for essays, be a formative tool for improving ESL writing? In spite of the increasing demands for English writing proficiency, English writing instruction has not been effective for teaching and learning because of a lack of timely and accurate feedback. In this context, AES as a possible solution has been gaining the attention of educators and scholars in ESL/EFL writing education because it can provide consistent and prompt feedback for student writers. This experimental study examined the impact of different types of feedback for a college ESL writing program using the Criterion AES system. The results reveal the positive impact of AES in a college-level ESL course and differences between the teacher's feedback and the AES feedback. The findings suggest that AES can be effectively integrated into ESL writing instruction as a formative assessment tool.

Background: Collisions involving workers and mobile machines continue to be a major concern in underground coal mines. Over the last 30 years, these collisions have resulted in numerous injuries and fatalities. Recently, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) proposed a rule that would require mines to equip mobile machines with proximity detection systems (PDSs) (systems designed for automated collision avoidance). Even though this regulation has not been enacted, some mines have installed PDSs on their scoops and hauling machines. However, early implementation of PDSs has introduced a variety of safety concerns. Past findings show that workers' trust can affect technology integration and influence unsafe use of automated technologies. Methods: Using a mixed-methods approach, the present study explores the effect that factors such as mine of employment, age, experience, and system type have on workers' trust in PDSs for mobile machines. The study also explores how workers are trained on PDSs and how this training influences trust. Results: The study resulted in three major findings. First, the mine of employment had a significant influence on workers' trust in mobile PDSs. Second, hands-on and classroom training was the most common types of training. Finally, over 70% of workers are trained on the system by the mine compared with 36% trained by the system manufacturer. Conclusion: The influence of workers' mine of employment on trust in PDSs may indicate that practitioners and researchers may need to give the organizational and physical characteristics of each mine careful consideration to ensure safe integration of automated systems.

The importance and cost of avionics system in the integration of an aircraft is continuously increasing. And we can expect enlarged software portion in the system integration for the more intelligent, reliable, and automated avionics system. Both military and commercial avionics community have moved toward commercial-off-the-shelf(COTS) equipment and open systems architecture not only to increase affordability but also to reduce acquisition cost, shorten development time and risk. The same concept is applied in developing avionics test system used for the avionics system integration test. In this paper, we present important topics in the development of avionics system including real-time operating system, interconnect data bus, software development methodology, software development process, and system integration test.

현재 국방시뮬레이션 분야에서 통합시험을 위해 각각의 실 장비 및 모의기(Simulator)들 자체 로깅정보는 자동화가 되어있다. 통합시험시스템의 특이사항은 시험일지로 작성하고 있지만, 자동화가 되어 있지 않아 여전히 운용자의 수기작성 또는 파일작성에 의존하고 있어, 기록 내용 부실 및 동일 내용 반복작성 등 비효율적인 면이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 자동 시험일지 기록 프로그램을 제안하고자 한다. 자동 시험일지 기록프로그램은 프레임워크 기반 기술을 활용해 시험일지에 기록해야 할 정보를 운용통제컴퓨터와 운용자로부터 수신 받아 일지를 기록해준다. 자동 시험일지 기록프로그램이 운용자의 반복적인 시험내용을 안정적으로 기록할 수 있게 한다. 또한, 시험 운용인원이 제한적이어도 운용자가 통합시험에만 집중할 수 있도록 효율성을 높여주었다.

데이터 베이스 스키마 통합은 정보 시스템에서 매우 중요한 이슈이다. 스키마 통합은 시간과 노력이 상당히 많이 필요하기 때문에 그동안 많은 연구들은 자동화된 스키마 통합 시스템을 구축하기 위해 노력했다. 하지만 지금까지의 연구에서는 XML을 소스 스키마로 사용하고 여전히 많은 부분을 데이터 베이스 관리자의 개입이 필요하도록 남겨두었다. 예를 들면, 스키마 통합 시 발생하는 관계명 명칭 충돌과 같은 문제는 데이터 베이스 관리자가 직접 개입하여야 해결할 수 있었다. 이 논문에서는 스키마 통합 시 발생하는 관계명 명칭 충돌을 해결하기 위해 관계명을 자동으로 생성해주는 알고리즘을 소개한다. 이 알고리즘은 인터넷 연어(Collocation) 사전과 영어 예문을 기반으로 한다. 사전 데이터를 기반으로 하여 추출한 예문들을 자연어처리 과정을 통해 분석한 후 두 엔티티 사이의 관계명을 생성한다. 반자동화된 스키마 통합 시스템을 구축하여 이 알고리즘을 테스트해보았으며 그 결과 약 90%의 정확도를 나타냈다. 이 알고리즘을 적용하면 스키마 통합 시에 데이터 베이스 관리자의 개입을 최소화할 수 있으며 이는 자동화된 스키마 통합 시스템을 구축하는 데에 큰 도움이 될 것이다.

에너지 자원의 고갈과 환경오염으로 인하여 건축조명 분야에서는 주광을 이용하여 에너지를 절약하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 광센서 조장제어시스템은 실내로 입사되는 주광에 따라 인공조명을 자동으로 제어하는 에너지 절약형 시스템으로 쉐이딩 시스템에 의해 주광유입이 차단되어 그 적용성이 미비하다. 자동롤러쉐이딩 시스템은 태양의 변화에 따라 롤러쉐이드의 높이를 자동으로 제어하는 시스템으로 광센서 조광제어시스템과 통합되어 사용될 때, 불쾌한 직사일광은 차단하고 실내로 유용한 주광을 유입함으로써 에너지 절감과 쾌적한 시환경을 제공할 수 있다. 본 연구는 광센서 조광제어시스템과 자동롤러쉐이딩 시스템의 통합을 위하여, 각 시스템의 제어 소프트웨어를 개발하였고 이를 통합하였다.

A competitive automated manufacturing system integrates the various control processes and data used in service of products. design, manufacturing, and, sale. CIM is a way to achieve such integration through computers and computational techniques in manufacturing, planning, and design. Developing effective CIM architectures is hampered by integration problems. The key to resolving these problems lies in a better understanding of manufacturing function and how it is related to other manufacturing functions. Integration of CIM environment requires coordinated solutions to data management problems for individual application system as well as for exchange of data between these applications. This requires a common framework for data management throughout the CIM environment. This paper discusses the design paradigm as a framework for this purpose. Designing an organizational structure to meet those goals invloves 1) analyzing the functions through functional decomposition, 2) developing a data model to coordinate functions. As a result, we propose an object-oriented design methodology for manufacturing information system.

This paper presents the prototype framework for automated integration of CMOS current-mode fuzzy logic circuits using an intelligent module approach. The library of modules representing the standard fuzzy logic operators was built. These modules were finally used to synthesized sophisticated fuzzy logic units. Fuzzy unit designs were made based upon the results of a newel methodology of the current mirror-based fuzzy logic function synthesis. This methodology is actually incorporated into the presented framework. As an example, the membership function unit was synthesized, simulated, and the final layout was generated using the presented framework. Finally, the fuzzy logic controller unit (FLC) was generated using the proposed framework. Simulation as well as measurement results show unquestionable advantages of the proposed fuzzy logic function integration system over the classical design methodology with respect to the area, relative error and performance.
