Numbers of research on ontology construction and its application are being done for knowledge and information processing using computers. But, the current ontology development methods and ontology construction tools are using in restricted field on propose. Therefore, proper ontology development processes and ontology construction tools on ontology characteristic are needed. In this paper, we propose ontology construction process(OntoProcess) that non-experts in specific field are able to construct ontology through conceptualization of knowledge and formalization of concepts from language resource. Beside, some problems may be occurred while numbers of people are working together to construct ontology: i)duplicated concept definition in conceptualization process of knowledge and ii)decreasing efficiency of ontology construction by short understanding about formal language and tool operation in formalization process. To solve the problems, we propose an ontology construction process for multiple developers (OntoProcess) using meta ontology. We develop an ontology construction system(OntoCS) based on proposed processes, and we show the efficiency of proposed processes and system from ontology construction experiment.

Web crawler, which is mainly used to collect text on the web today, is difficult to maintain and expand because researchers must implement different collection logic by collection channel after analyzing tags and styles of HTML documents. To solve this problem, the web crawler should be able to collect text by formalizing HTML documents to the same structure. In this paper, we designed and implemented WCTT(Web Crawling system based on Tag path and Text appearance frequency), a web crawling system that collects text with a single collection logic by formalizing HTML documents based on tag path and text appearance frequency. Because WCTT collects texts with the same logic for all collection channels, it is easy to maintain and expand the collection channel. In addition, it provides the preprocessing function that removes stopwords and extracts only nouns for keyword network analysis and so on.

Data semantics is an well recognized issue in areas of information systems research. It provides indispensable information for management of data, It describes what data mean, how they are created, where they can be applied to, to name a few. Because of these diverse nature of data semantics, it has been described from different perspectives of formalization. This article proposes to formalize data semantics by the processes that data are created or transformed, A scheme is proposed to describe the structure that data are created and transformed, which is called Bill of Data. Bill of Data is a directed graph, whose leaves are primary input data and whose internal nodes are output data objects produced from input data objects. Using Bill of Data, algorithms are developed to compare data semantics.

This study was designed to test the relationship between effectiveness of nursing organizations and structural and managerial variables of nursing organizations that are described in the Robbins Organizational theory model. The data were collected through self reported questionnaires from 605 nurses working in, and 782 patients hospitalized in, five tertiary hospitals in Seoul. Results showed that according to MANOVA there was a significant difference in nurses job satisfaction and patient satisfaction among the five hospitals. According to cluster analysis of the structural and managerial variables of nursing organizations, the five hospitals were divided into two clusters and there was no significant difference in nurses job satisfaction or patient satisfaction between the two clusters. According to canonical correlation analysis the formalization and centralization of structural variables were shown to be predicting variables for nurses job satisfaction, and the managing job design and managing Change of managerial variables were shown to be predicting variables for nurses job satisfaction.

The verification phase of knowledge base is an important part for developing reliable expert systems, especially in nuclear industry. Although several strategies or tools have been developed to perform potential ewer checking, they often neglect the reliability of verification methods. Because a Petri net provides a uniform mathematical formalization of knowledge base, it has been employed for knowledge base verification. In this work, we devise and suggest an automated tool, called COKEP (Checker Of Knowledge base using Extended Petri net), for detecting incorrectness, inconsistency, and incompleteness in a knowledge base. The scope of the verification problem is expanded to chained errors, unlike previous studies that assumed error incidence to be limited to rule pairs only. In addition, we consider certainty factor in checking, because most of knowledge bases have certainty factors.

As technology innovation has become a competitive weapon in the globalized era, firms are engaged in the development of new products to gain competitiveness in the marketplace. One of the main phenomena in a firm's effort to enhance technology development activities is the formation of technology strategy, i.e. the formalization of technology development activities within the firm. This paper explores the practice and management of technology innovation in the Korean manufacturing sector. Based on a survey of over 100 manufacturing firms in Korea, it identifies the contemporary practice of technology planning, and also characterizes the types of relationships that exist among participating interest groups for technology strategy formulation within a firm.

Many empirical research surveys have su, pp.rted that Organizational Citizenship Behavior(OCB) is influenced by or closely related with leadership styles. The primary purpose is to test the moderating effects of structural factors (formalization, centralization) and personal factors(growth needs, sex, age, tenure, rank, occuption, school carrer) between 2 leadership styles and 2 OCB factors. For the analytical purpose of this article, Fisher's Z-transformation and SGC(split groups correlations) methods were introduced. Generally 2 leadership styles are found to influence on altruism and conscientiousness respectively. Out of 36 cases, only 2 cases were significant in moderating effects. Based on empirical results, there is no moderating effects in conscientiousness. But altruism is found to more closely related with employee-centered leadership in low centralized group than in high centralized group, and more closely related with job-centered leadership in low growth-needs group than in high growth-needs group.

This study is on relations between minimalism, which is one of important theme in the contemporary design, and East-oriented speculatiov. Minimalism, one inclination of neo-modernism is characterized by Essentialism. That is connected with East-oriented thinking, especially Taoism. The paradigm of contradiction and paradox replaces the paradigm of rationality and the law of cause and effect. Minimal tendency is appeared at Modernism in 60's and Neo-modernism in 90's. The differences are originated with their manner on simplicity. Minimal tendency in Modernism is characterized by 'less is more' and that in Meo-modernism is by 'more with less'. The minimizing strategy is not considered as means as in modern age but as purpose in neo-modern age. This paper explains minimal architectural space as spatial problem and recognitions on that, not as the figurative problem. Conclusively the relationships between minimalism and eastern ideas are represented through the boundary and extensity of space, void and solid, de-formalization and Essentialism.

Many empirical research surveys have supported that Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) is influnced by or closely related with leadership styles. The first purpose of this study is to review the relationship between 2 leadership styles(employee-centered style, job-centered style) and 2 OCB factors(altruism, conscientiousness) as a criterion variable, and the second and primary purpose is to test the moderating effects of structural factors(formalization, centralization) and personal factors(growth needs, sex, age, tenure, rank, occupation, school career) between 2 leadership styles and 2 OCB factors. For the analytical purpose of this article, Fisher's Z-transformation and SGC(split groups correlations) methods were introduced. Generally 2 leadership styles are found to influence on altruism and conscientiousness respectively. Out of 36 cases, only 2 cases were significant in moderating effects. Based on empirical results, there is no moderating effects in conscientiousness. But altruism is found to more closely related with employee-centered leadership in low centralized group than on high centralized group, and more closely related with job-centered leadership in low growth-needs group than in high growth-needs group.

We present an early result of a research for formalization of the characteristics and effectiveness of manufacturing performance measurement systems (PMS). Recently manufacturing PMS has been a focus of broad research efforts due to its practical role playing in managers' decision making process. There have been so many suggestive researches that explain the troubles with old cost accounting-based PMS and describe the desirable properties of PMS in strategic management of manufacturing operations. The lack of empirical investigation in this area, however, has left us unsure about what are the real characteristics that distinguish one PMS from another. In this paper, we propose a conceptual framework that can be used to describe the environment, in which a specific PMS works, the characteristic and the utilization variables of a PMS. Then we report the result of a field survey, where we found three distinctive characteristics of a PMS, contents, vertical integration, and horizontal integration. Further, we discuss the relationships of the variables with the utilization of PMS, manufacturing strategy, manufacturing improvement programs, and business performance.
