  • The architectural design requires collaboration among various participants, such as architects, clients and engineers in the stages of the design process. Rapid development of information technology enables effective and prompt exchange and sharing of digital architectural information, otherwise should have been exchanged and managed by traditional ways. However, the core technology for supporting this demands has not been fully investigated so far. This paper aims to show the possibility of adopting network based architectural design information sharing system through surveying and analyzing the state-of-the-art network technology and its uses in architectural information exchange among various design actors. To realize these aims, this paper 1) investigates and analyzes the current status of network technology in the architectural and construction practice, 2) suggests systematic information exchange and sharing mechanism for architectural products and drawings data, and 3) demonstrates network based prototypical architectural information system.

  • Along with the change of national accounting, the importance of systematic management of assets is emphasized and the awareness that the concept termed Asset Management should be introduced to the construction field too to manage facilities. The present study is a basic study for the introduction of the concept Asset Management and proposed accounting guidelines(proposal) for public building maintenance cost that can clarify maintenance cost accounting. Existing literatures and current accounting standards were examined and the actual states of maintenance cost accounting of public buildings in A metropolitan city were examined to draw problems. For the practice guidelines(proposal), the types and contents of government office building maintenance expenditures were analyzed and items that must be treated as OPEX and CAPEX were presented. Expert interviews were conducted to verify the reliability of the items presented. The practice guidelines(proposal) were applied to the public buildings in A metropolitan city to identify situations of changes in asset values and review the effects of the practice guidelines(proposal) on increases in asset values. When applied to practices, the practice guidelines(proposal) suggested in the present study are considered to increase building asset values and provide consistent financial information to help stakeholders' decision making.

  • The construction industry remains serious accidents, injuries, and fatalities due to it's unique, dynamic, and temporary nature. On workplace sites, Safety pre-task planning is one of the efforts to minimize injuries and help construction personnel to identify potential hazards. However, the working conditions are complicated. Many activities, including tasks or job steps, are executing at the same time and place. It may lead to an increase in the risks from simultaneous tasks. This paper contributes to addressing this issue by introducing a safety risk interaction analyzing framework. To accomplish this objective, accident reports of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) are investigated. The pairs of task incompatibility, which have time-space conflicts and lead to incidents, are found. Ontology technology is applied to build the risk database, in which the information is acquired, structuralized. The proposed system is expected to improve pre-task planning efficiency and relieve the burdens encountered by safety managers. A user scenario is also discussed to demonstrate how the ontology supports pre-task planning in practice.

  • Since its adoption by the transportation sector in the early 1990s, partnering has been broadly used with the traditional delivery method by many agencies with significant reported benefits. During the same era, a number of transportation agencies (DOTs) started experimenting with a wide variety of alternative project delivery methods (APDMs) aimed at improving the delivery of highway construction projects. The effect of collaborative working strategies such as partnering, together with the APDMs have become somehow interrelated posing a potential challenge on how to effectively integrate partnering as a concept in the APDMs. The salient question has been if the collaborative nature of these APDMs has affected how partnering is being used by state DOTs. Through an extensive literature review, analysis of 32 CMGC RFPs/RFQs and review of three CMGC case studies, the study found that there is limited information in state DOT documents that show procedures on the usage of partnering with CMGC projects. Majority of DOTs are relying on the inherent nature of the CMGC contract to promote healthy collaborative practices and there is the need to consider partnering during preconstruction and construction separately to cater for any personnel change over. The study also revealed that partnering may become less important at the construction phase due to overlap between partnering and CMGC practices. In support of this finding, a CMGC partnering model was developed that can be adopted by DOTs. This paper contributes to both research and practice by expanding the existing knowledge on partnering on APDMs.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to construct, develop, and apply a nursing information system (NIS) using NANDA-NOC-NIC linkage in medical-surgical nursing units. Methods: This study consisted of three phases which were the construction of the database, development of the NIS, and application of the NIS. To construct the database, a questionnaire and nursing record review by an expert group were used. Collected data were analyzed by the SPSS/WIN 13.0 program. Results: In first phase, the database was made up of 50 nursing diagnoses, 127 nursing outcomes and 300 nursing interventions. In the second phase, NIS was developed according to its flow diagram and then tested. In the third phase, the developed NIS was applied to 130 inpatients. Nursing diagnoses frequently used were acute pain, delayed surgical recovery, and deficient knowledge (specify). Nursing outcomes for a nursing diagnosis of 'acute pain' were identified as pain control, pain level and comfort level. Nursing interventions for the nursing outcome 'pain control' were pain management, patient controlled analgesia assistance and medication management. Conclusion: The results of this study will facilitate the use of the newly proposed NIS in nursing practice and provide a guideline for evidence-based nursing.

  • By 'National GIS Plan', various strategies and programs have been carried out for the professional training in the fields of geospatial information. The e-learning can make it possible to develop and manage the adaptable curriculums, to maximize the effect of the practical exercises, and to establish the cooperative systems with the industries. In this study, curriculums of the geospatial fields were developed and suggested for the cyber universities. These curriculums were divided into three stages, fundamentals, applications, and advances, and into three tracks, system development and construction, mapping and geospatial data construction, and practice and application, based on the current demands in geospatial industries. Owing to be the modularized structure, proposed curriculums would be easily adapted and updated to the change of the new demands.

  • After being introduced, Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been actively applied to the cost estimation of construction projects, and various studies on BIM based quantity take-off have been carried out. In practice, however, these calculations take considerable time, because BIM based quantity take-off is further conducted along with 2D-based quantity take-off. Studies on the quantity take-off using BIM spatial objects have been carried out on early stages of projects, but how this method differs from the existing quantity take-off method and how accurate it is in comparison have rarely been verified. Therefore, by comparing 2D based quantities with quantities through BIM spatial objects, this study analyzed the accuracy of quantity take-off using BIM spatial objects. To this end, the properties of BIM spatial objects and quantity calculable spatial types were analyzed, and existing 2D-based quantities and quantities extracted from BIM spatial objects were compared through a case study. As a result, the quantity of spatial objects found to be more by about 7.13% in 0.05% and therefore, this difference should be considered during quantity take-off using BIM spatial objects. Through the results of this study, we can improve the accuracy of quantity take-off using BIM spatial objects in the early stage of a construction project.

  • Network Intrusion Detection (NID), an important topic in the field of information security, can be viewed as a pattern recognition problem. The existing pattern recognition methods can achieve a good performance when the number of training samples is large enough. However, modern network attacks are diverse and constantly updated, and the training samples have much smaller size. Furthermore, to improve the learning ability of SVM, the research of kernel functions mainly focus on the selection, construction and improvement of kernel functions. Nonetheless, in practice, there are no theories to solve the problem of the construction of kernel functions perfectly. In this paper, we effectively integrate the advantages of the radial basis function kernel and the polynomial kernel on the notion of the game theory and propose a novel kernel SVM algorithm with game theory for NID, called GTNID-SVM. The basic idea is to exploit the game theory in NID to get a SVM classifier with better learning ability and generalization performance. To the best of our knowledge, GTNID-SVM is the first algorithm that studies ensemble kernel function with game theory in NID. We conduct empirical studies on the DARPA dataset, and the results demonstrate that the proposed approach is feasible and more effective.
