Since Duncan(1956) first proposed an economic design of $\bar{X}$-control charts, most of the succeeding works on economic design of control charts assumed the exponential failure model like Duncan. Hu(1984), however, assumed a more versatile Weibull failure model to develop an economic design of $\bar{X}$-control charts and Banerjee and Rahim(1988) further improved Hu's design by changing the assumption of fixed-length sampling intervals to variable-length ones. In this article we follow the approach of Banerjee and Rahim(1988) but include a pair of warning limits inside the control limits in order to search for a failure without stopping the process when the sample mean falls between warning and control limits. The computational results indicate that the proposed model gives a lower cost than Banerjee and Rahim's model unless the early failure probability of a Weibull distribution is relatively large. The reduction in cost is shown to become larger as the cost of production loss outweighs the cost of searches for a failure.

Pubilc utility industries including the electric utility industry are facing a new stream of privatization com-petition with the private sector and deregulation. The necewssity to solve now and in the future power supply and demand problems has been increasing through the sophisticated generation expansion plan(GEP) approach con-sidering not only KEPCo's supply-side resources but also outside resources such as non-utility generation(NUG) demand-side management (DSM). Under the environmental situation in the current electric utility industry a new approach is needed to acquire multiple resources competitively. This study presents the development of a modified electric generation expansion analysis system(EGEAS) model with avoided cost based on the existing EGEAS model which is a dynamic program to develope an optimal generation expansion plan for the electric utility. We are trying to find optimal GEP in Korea's case using our modified model and observe the difference for the level of reliabilities such as the reserve margin(RM) loss of load probability(LOLP) and expected unserved energy percent(EUEP) between the existing EGEAS model and our model. In addition we are trying to calculate avoided cost for NUG resources which is a criterion to evaluate herem and test possibility of connection calculation of avoided cost with GEP implementation using our modified model. The results of our case study are as follows. First we were able to find that the generation expansion plan and reliability measures were largely influenced by capacity size and loading status of NUG resources, Second we were able to find that avoided cost which are criteria to evaluate NUG resources could be calculated by using our modified EGEAS model with avoided cost. We also note that avoided costs were calculated by our model in connection with generation expansion plans.

We develop a probability model to evaluate information security investment portfolios. We assume that organizations install portfolios of information security countermeasures to mitigate the damage such as loss of the transaction being processed, damage of hardware and data, etc. A queueing model and Its expected value analysis are used to derive the lost cost of transactions being processed, the replacement cost of hardwares, and the recovery cost of data. The net present value for each portfolio is derived and organizations can select the optimal information security investment portfolio by comparing portfolios.

In space qualified DC-DC converters, optimization of the following electrical characteristics is of greater interest in comparison with other specifications; power loss/efficiency, output voltage ripple and volume/weight. The main goal of this paper is to present an appropriate solution for optimizing the above mentioned characteristics. For this purpose, a comprehensive power loss model of a DC-DC converter is fully developed. Proper models are also demonstrated for assessment of the output voltage ripple and the utilized transformer volume as the bulkiest component in a DC-DC converter. In order to provide a test bed for evaluation of the proposed models, a 50W push-pull DC-DC converter is designed and implemented. Finally, a novel cost function with three assigned weight functions is proposed in order to have a trade-off among the power loss, the output voltage ripple and the utilized transformer volume of the converter. The cost function is optimized for applications in which volume has the highest priority in comparison with power loss and ripple. The optimization results show that the transformer volume can be decreased by up to 51% and this result is verified by experimental results. The developed models and algorithms in this paper can be used for other DC-DC converter topologies with some minor modifications.

글로벌 기업들은 글로벌 생산 네트워크를 구축하여 세계 시장의 수요에 대응하고 있다. 그러나 해외 공장 설립 및 운영 시 현지 노동자들의 임금문제, 낮은 생산의욕 및 도난사고로 인한 피해가 속출하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 글로벌 기업의 해외 공장에서 원자재를 IP Camera와 RFID Box를 이용하여 관리함으로써, 실시간적인 재고 파악과 원자재의 도난 또는 멸실되는 상황을 방지할 수 있는 원자재 유실 방지 모델을 제안하였다. 이 모델은 원격지에 있는 재고의 관리가 가능하여 보다 비용 효율적인 생산관리를 실현할 수 있게 해주며, 불합격품 거래로 인한 브랜드 이미지 손실과 수익 저하를 방지할 수 있도록 해준다.

The traffic volume on the road shows various trends reflecting regional characteristics for monthly and hourly, and economic loss affecting users varies according to the selected period for the maintenance of road pavements. Therefore, in this study, the user cost (or delay cost) for monthly and hourly on the work zone near the Maesang Bridge Section on Poseung-Gu, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do was calculated using the time series models and VISSIM, and based on the result, the effect of user cost reduction according to the selection of best maintenance period was examined. The analysis result showed that the month of the lowest user cost occurred due to the maintenance of target section was January (10,293,258 KRW/Day×1km) and the month of the greatest user cost occurred was November (13,337,495 KRW/Day×1km).

This paper presents the development of a decision model to examine the optimal repair action for a deteriorating system. In order to make a reasonable decision, it is necessary to perform an analysis of the uncertainties embedded in deterioration and to evaluate the repair actions based on the expected future cost. Focusing on the power law failure model, the uncertainties related to deterioration are analyzed based on the Bayesian approach. In addition, we develop a decision model for the optimal repair action by applying a repair cost function. A case study is given to illustrate a decision-making process by analyzing the loss incurred due to deterioration.

In China, the oil and natural gas resources of Bohai Bay are mainly marginal oil fields. It is necessary to build both ice-resistant and economical offshore platforms. However, risk is involved in the design, construction, utilization, maintenance of offshore platforms as uncertain events may occur within the life-cycle of a platform under the extreme ice load. In this study, the optimum design model of the expected life-cycle cost for ice-resistant platforms based on cost-effectiveness criterion is proposed. Multiple performance demands of the structure, facilities and crew members, associated with the failure assessment criteria and evaluation functions of costs of construction, consequences of structural failure modes including damage, revenue loss, death and injury as well as discounting cost over time are considered. An efficient approximate method of the global reliability analysis for the offshore platforms is provided, which converts the implicit nonlinear performance function in the conventional reliability analysis to linear explicit one. The proposed life-cycle optimum design formula are applied to a typical ice-resistant platform in Bohai Bay, and the results demonstrate that the life-cycle cost-effective optimum design model is more rational compared to the conventional design.

본 논문에서는 강교의 실용적인 생애주기비용 (LCC) 최적설계를 위한 일반화된 정식화와 LCC 설계시스템 모델을 제안하였다. 강교 최적설계를 위한 LCC는 초기비용, 직접 복구 (rehabilitation) 비용과 인적 혹은 물적 손실비용의 직접비용, 도로이용자비용, 그리고 사회-경제 손실비용을 포함한 간접비용의 현재가치의 합으로 정식화하였다. 특히 본 논문에서는 교량이 속해 있는 도로의 네트워크를 고려한 도로이용자비용과 사회-경제 손실비용 산정을 위한 새로운 모델을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 LCC 정식화 모델은 실제 강박스 거더교와 강상판형교의 LCC 최적설계 문제에 적용하였고, 다양한 경우에 대한 LCC의 효율성에 대해 비교 고찰하였다. LCC를 고려한 강교량의 최적설계는 설계시방서에 기초한 설계방법뿐만 아니라 초기비용 절감을 위한 최적설계 방법과 비교할 때 더욱 합리적이고, 경제적이며, 안전한 설계를 유도할 수 있으리라 판단된다.
