  • Evaluating methods for software asset have been made based on subjective evaluation criteria. In this study, we try to evaluate the usability of complex assets obtained from the previous measurement of the complexity of the asset management system. The evaluation used a scale provided by measuring logical complexity to measure the complexity of the asset, and evaluated the relationship with the usability of the software asset by measuring the index related to reusability. Therefore, it can be seen that HVs maintain a constant ratio according to the composition of various assets for the two types of assets and maintain the applied consistency. Therefore, it can be determined that an asset optimized in terms of usability can be applied consistently in the architectural design process while securing as much diversity as possible.

  • Recently, in designing military equipment, considerable attention has been paid to maintaining operations, including reliability, maintenance, and maintenance time of equipment, from the early stages of development. Therefore, both users and developers stress the importance of design considering the maintenance time. This study evaluated the specific methodologies for predicting the realistic maintenance time, such as the access complexity of equipment, other than the standard maintenance time provided by the conventional method mil-hdbk-470a at the beginning of the design, and applied the time conversion factor using a measure of the maintenance complexity. In addition, the actual maintenance time reflecting the actual maintenance time of the developed equipment and the time-conversion factor applied was compared/verified to confirm the reliability of the data. In a study to set a target for repair and the repair of equipment design in the future, it is expected that the maintenance time of equipment that fails to measure the maintenance time for the initial actual equipment will be reflected as a more realistic time. Moreover, activities, such as research and design reflection activities, will be performed to reduce the maintenance time, operational maintenance cost, etc.

  • In this study, we present the architecture design of data control system in water hazard information platform with analyzing the complexity of the data processing. Generally, data control systems in data collection and analysis platforms base on the constant data-algorithm data processing meaning that data processing between data and algorithm is fixed. But the number of data processing in data control system is rapidly increasing because of increasing of complexity of system. To hold down the number of data processing, dynamic data-algorithm data processing is able to be applied to data control system. After comparison each data-algorithm data processing method, we suggest design method of the data control system optimizing water hazard information platform.

  • In simulation-based circuit optimization, many simulation runs may be wasted while evaluating infeasible designs, i.e. the designs that do not meet the constraints. To avoid such a waste, this paper investigates the use of support vector machine (SVM) classifiers in predicting the design's feasibility prior to simulation and the optimal selection of the SVM parameters, namely, the Gaussian kernel shape parameter ${\gamma}$ and the misclassification penalty parameter C. These parameters affect the complexity as well as the accuracy of the model that SVM represents. For instance, the higher ${\gamma}$ is good for detailed modeling and the higher C is good for rejecting noise in the training set. However, our empirical study shows that a low ${\gamma}$ value is preferable due to the high spatial correlation among the circuit design candidates while C has negligible impacts due to the smooth and clean constraint boundaries of most circuit designs. The experimental results with an LC-tank oscillator example show that an optimal selection of these parameters can improve the prediction accuracy from 80 to 98% and model complexity by $10{\times}$.

  • The delay-insensitive Null Convention Logic (NCL) asynchronous design as one of innovative asynchronous logic design methodologies has many advantages of inherent robustness, power consumption, and easy design reuses. However, transistor-level structures of conventional NCL gate cells have weakness of low speed, high area overhead or high wire complexity. Therefore, this paper proposes a new high-speed NCL gate cells designed at transistor level for high-speed, low area overhead, and low wire complexity. The proposed NCL gate cells have been compared to the conventional NCL gates in terms of circuit delay, area and power consumption.

  • It is necessary to construct equipment catalog in ship outfitting design and offshore plant design. The three-dimensional CAD data of equipment take on different level-of-detail depending on the purpose. Equipment suppliers provide CAD data with high complexity while ship designers need CAD data with low complexity. Therefore, it is necessary to simplify CAD data. However, it takes much time to simplify them manually. To resolve the issue, a system for automatically simplifying the 3D CAD data of equipment was developed. This paper presents the architecture of the system and the implementation details. In addition, experiment result using the prototype system is explained.

  • Contemporary architecture is showing its deconstruction and departure from modern architecture based on rationality, such as reductionism or virtualism. This means a shift from a mechanistic and ecological world view to an organic and ecological view, from a deterministic reason to a reason for a possible secret static. This study examines the potential of fractals, a scientific theory of complexity that is emerging as a new paradigm in the 21st century, as an appropriate alternative to contemporary complexity architecture. The method and scope of this study were understood and its features were identified through literature and data research and prior study review. Based on the organic nature of fractal geometry, we analyzed the works of contemporary architects(Frank Gehry, Bernard Tschumi, Steven Holl, Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Daniel Libeskind, Zvi Hecker, Ito Toyo) and studied the possibility of architectural design using the principle of fractal. As a result, fractal geometry, similar to the patterned order of nature, has an infinite set of organizational functionalities in architecture and can be applied in various aspects of design analysis. Architectural designs based on the fractal theory will require more research and development to realize dynamic design representation using digital computers.

  • Generally, the goal of seismic retrofit design of an existing structure using energy dissipation devices is to determine the optimum design parameters of a retrofit device to satisfy a specified limit state with minimum cost. However, the presence of multiple parameters to be optimized and the computational complexity of performing non-linear analysis make it difficult to find the optimal design parameters in the realistic 3D structure. In this study, genetic algorithm-based optimal seismic retrofit methods for determining the required number, yield strength, and location of steel slit dampers are proposed to retrofit an asymmetric soft first-story structure. These methods use a multi-objective and single-objective evolutionary algorithms, each of which varies in computational complexity and incorporates nonlinear time-history analysis to determine seismic performance. Pareto-optimal solutions of the multi-objective optimization are found using a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II). It is demonstrated that the developed multi-objective optimization methods can determine the optimum number, yield strength, and location of dampers that satisfy the given limit state of a three-dimensional asymmetric soft first-story structure. It is also shown that the single-objective distribution method based on minimizing plan-wise stiffness eccentricity turns out to produce similar number of dampers in optimum locations without time consuming nonlinear dynamic analysis.

  • Efficient arithmetic design is essential to implement error correcting codes and cryptographic applications over finite fields. This article presents an efficient $AB^2$ multiplier in GF($2^m$) using a polynomial representation. The proposed multiplier produces the result in m clock cycles with a propagation delay of two AND gates and two XOR gates using O($2^m$) area-time complexity. The proposed multiplier is highly modular, and consists of regular blocks of AND and XOR logic gates. Especially, exponentiation, inversion, and division are more efficiently implemented by applying $AB^2$ multiplication repeatedly rather than AB multiplication. As compared to related works, the proposed multiplier has lower area-time complexity, computational delay, and execution time and is well suited to VLSI implementation.

  • This paper presents an efficient hardware architecture of demodulating fingers to demodulate the multi-path propagating signals in MC-CDMA Mobile System. We design a new architecture of demodulating fingers which share the single arithmetic unit to reduce the hardware complexity. This arithmetic unit performs MAC(Multiplication and Accumulation) operations of all demodulating fingers. The proposed architecture is suitable for Is-95 based CDMA PCS system. Three demodulating fingers for MC-CDMA which demodulate 7 channels contain about 42K logic gates. Our proposed system is shown to be very useful for Multi-Code CDMA system in which several channels are demodulated simultaneously.
