This paper describes a methodology for automating the material handling equipment (MHE) evaluation and selection processes by combining knowledge-based rules and fuzzy multi-criteria decision making approach. The methodology is proposed to solve the MHE selection problems under fuzzy environment. At the primary stage, the most appropriate MHE type among the alternatives for each material flow link is searched. Knowledge-based rules are employed to retrieve the alternatives for each material flow link. To consider and compare the alternatives, multiple design factors are considered. These factors include both quantitative and qualitative measures. The qualitative measures are converted to numerical measures using fuzzy logic. The concept of fuzzy logic is applied to evaluation matrices used for the selection of the most suitable MHE through a fuzzy linguistic approach. Thus, this paper demonstrates the potential applicability of fuzzy theory in the MHE applications and provides a systemic guidance in the decision-making process.

ATM/B-ISDN 신호 프로토콜과 같은 통신 프로토콜의 상호운용성을 시험하기 위한 시험경우를 생성하는 알고리즘이 제안되었다 1]. 현재까지 상호운용성 시험경우 도출을 자동화하거나 이에 대한 커버리지를 분석한 경우는 없다. 본 논문은 1]에서 제안한 알고리즘을 프로그램으로 구현하여 TCP 연결설정 프로토콜에 적용하고 결과를 분석한다. 이 과정에서 (1) TCP 연결설정 프로토콜의 3방향 핸드 쉐이킹 부분을 다루지 못했던 기존의 알고리즘을 개선하고, (2) 개선된 알고리즘을 프로그램으로 구현하여 TCP 연결설정 프로토콜의 상호운용성 시험경우를 도출하고, (3) 생성된 상호운용성 시험경우를 트랜지션 커버리지 관점에서 분석하고, (4) 향상된 트랜지션 커버리지를 얻기 위하여 알고리즘 확장 방안을 제시한다.Abstract A test derivation method suitable for testing interoperability for the class of communication protocols like the ATM/B-ISDN signaling protocol was proposed 1]. Up to now, there is no work on automating derivation of the interoperability test suite and analyzing its coverage. In this paper, we implement the algorithm proposed by 1], apply it to the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), and analyze its results. In this process, we (1) improve the algorithm that is not applicable to the TCPs three-way handshaking, (2) implement the improved algorithm as a program and derive an interoperability test suite automatically from a given pair of TCP FSMs, (3) analyze generated interoperability test suite in view of transition coverage, and (4) present a method in order to extend the algorithm for better transition coverage.

Global Environment Laboratory at Yonsei University in Seoul ($37.57^{\circ}N$, $126.95^{\circ}E$) has carried out the ozone layer monitoring program in the framework of the Global Ozone Observing System of the World Meteorlogical Organization (WMO/GAW/GO3OS Station No. 252) since May of 1984. The daily measurements of total ozone and the vertical distribution of ozone amount have been made with the Dobson Spectrophotometer (No.124) on the roof of the Science Building on Yonsei campus. From 2004 through 2006, major parts of the manual operations are automated in measuring total ozone amount and vertical ozone profile through Umkehr method, and calibrating instrument by standard lamp tests with new hardware and software including step motor, rotary encoder, controller, and visual display. This system takes full advantage of Windows interface and information technology to realize adaptability to the latest Windows PC and flexible data processing system. This automatic system also utilizes card slot of desktop personal computer to control various types of boards in the driving unit for operating Dobson spectrophotometer and testing devices. Thus, by automating most of the manual work both in instrument operation and in data processing, subjective human errors and individual differences are eliminated. It is therefore found that the ozone data quality has been distinctly upgraded after automation of the Dobson instrument.

In this paper, a prototype tele-operative system with a mobile base was developed in order to automate cultivation of house melon. A man-machine interactive hybrid decision-making system via tele-operative task interface was proposed to overcome limitations of computer image recognition. Identifying house melon including position data from the field image was critical to automate cultivation. And it was not simple especially when melon is covered partly by leaves and stems. The developed system was composed of 5 major modules: (a) main remote monitoring and task control module, (b) wireless remote image acquisition and data transmission module, (c) three-wheel mobile base mounted with a 4 dof articulated type robot manipulator (d) exchangeable modular type end tools, and (e) melon storage module. The system was operated through the graphic user interface using touch screen monitor and wireless data communication among operator, computer, and machine. Once task was selected from the task control and monitoring module, the analog signal of the color image of the field was captured and transmitted to the host computer using R.F. module by wireless. A sequence of algorithms to identify location and size of a melon was performed based on the local image processing. Laboratory experiment showed the developed prototype system showed the practical feasibility of automating various cultivating tasks of house melon.

Simulations have been used to evaluate the efficiency of logistics or manufacturing systems and predict the outcomes of the systems. New simulation models are needed to evaluate new alternative plants and layouts during the resource design process. Although it is easy to handle minor changes in parameters by modifying a simulation model, it takes considerable time and effort for simulation modelers to alter the layout, which involves changes in many simulation sub-models. Therefore, this study proposes a method to transfer information in AutoCAD layout to the simulation model automatically. This study also defines a standard document as an Excel Form, and suggests a method to transfer information on the basic layouts, processes, resources, and workers to a simulation model automatically. A simulation tool, called Tecnomatix Plant Simulation 9.0, was used for this study. The proposed approach in this study was applied to a semiconductor wafer factory for a case study.

In this study, I propose a method to automate the method to diagnose the quality of big data. The reason for automating the quality diagnosis of Big Data is that as the Fourth Industrial Revolution becomes a issue, there is a growing demand for more volumes of data to be generated and utilized. Data is growing rapidly. However, if it takes a lot of time to diagnose the quality of the data, it can take a long time to utilize the data or the quality of the data may be lowered. If you make decisions or predictions from these low-quality data, then the results will also give you the wrong direction. To solve this problem, I have developed a model that can automate diagnosis for improving the quality of Big Data using machine learning which can quickly diagnose and improve the data. Machine learning is used to automate domain classification tasks to prevent errors that may occur during domain classification and reduce work time. Based on the results of the research, I can contribute to the improvement of data quality to utilize big data by continuing research on the importance of data conversion, learning methods for unlearned data, and development of classification models for each domain.

Crack sealing is a maintenance technique commonly used to prevent water and debris penetration and reduce future degradation in pavement. In recent years, several systems for automatically routing and sealing pavement cracks have been developed in the highway construction and maintenance area. Automating pavement crack sealing can improve safety, productivity and quality, and reduce road user cost as well. The reduction in crew size and the increase in productivity of the automated sealing process will be translated directly into significant potential cost savings. The main objective of this study is to illustrate conceptual models for the development of the automated pavement crack sealer which meets domestic road condition and regulation, and to discuss its technical feasibilities. Conclusions are made concerning the applicability and the value of cantilever-typed pavement crack which is selected as the most feasible alternative in both economical and technical aspects.

Research on smart farms centering on greenhouse cultivation is actively under way due to the decrease in agriculture population and aging, but in the case of vegetables such as vegetables, outdoor cultivation is 70%. Therefore, there is a need to improve productivity and prevent soil contamination by automating, cultivating, and intelligentizing the outdoor cultivation of agriculture crops. In this paper, we show the case of establishing a outdoor production system using the Internet of things and define the environmental variables in the outdoor production system. By measuring soil temperature, water content, electrical conductivity and acidity through sensors, LoRa communication module transmits the information to the outdoor production system. The outdoor production system controls the amount of fertilizer and the volume of water based on this sensor data. We have developed a system that manages a wide range of crops using LoRa technology, which is a suitable communication method for cultivating crops, and manages production volume and sales performance.
