The purpose of interlocking system in railway is to prevent the route for a train being set up and its protecting signal cleared if there were already another, conflicting route set up and the protecting signal for that route cleared. Recently, conventional relays circuitry in industrial field is replaced to computer-based control systems according to the advance of computer and communication technology. Therefore, interlocking systems in railway field are rapidly changing from existing relay-based interlocking system to computer-based electronic ones that executes the vital interlocking logic to assure the safety train routes at trackside signaling equipment room using electronic circuits. So it is very important to verify the performance of developed electronic interlocking system by plentiful laboratory testing before actually application in the railway system. However the laboratory testing in the present state of railway signaling is preformed individually by manual, so very much test time and cost are required. To solve these problems, we are developed the simulator for automatic interlocking inspection in this research. This simulator is able to operate on general personal computer and has following beneficial functions : automatic test sheet generation for inspection, automatic inspection execution and et al. The experiments are executed to test the feasibility of the developed simulator the experimental results have good agreements with the anticipated ones.

Palletizing is necessary to promote the efficiency of storage and shipping tasks. These are, however some of the most monotonous, heavy and laborious tasks in the factory. Therefore many types of robot palletizing systems have been developed, but many robot motion commands still depend on the teaching pendent. That is, an operator inputs the motion command lines one by one. It is very troublesome, and most of all, the user must know how to type the code. That is why we propose a new GUI (Graphic User Interface) Palletizing System. To cope with this issue, we proposed a 'PLP' (Pallet Loading Problem) algorithm, Fast Algorithm and realize 3D auto-patterning visualization interface. Finally, we propose the robot palletizing simulator. Internally, the schematic of this simulator is as follows. First, an user inputs the physical information of object. Second, simulator calculates the optimal pattern for the object and visualizes the result. Finally, the calculated position data of object is passed to the robot simulator. To develop the robot simulator, we use an articulated robot, and analyze the kinematics and dynamics. Especially, All problem including thousands of boxes were completely calculated in less than 1 second and resulted in optimal solutions by the Fast Algorithm.

Pilot Aptitude Research Equipment (PARE) is a simulator developed to measure or research pilot aptitude and train for student pilots. Design of an ergonomic PARE operation console is required to operate the equipment effectively. This study carried out five steps : (S1) operator questionnaire survey, (S2) anthropometric design formula development, (S3) usability evaluation, (S4) improvement design, and (S5) validation considering both Physical User Interface (PUI) and Graphic User Interface (GUI) of PARE operation console. The operator questionnaire surveyed needs for each PUI and GUI part of the console from two PARE actual operators. In terms of PUI, the anthropometric design formula was developed by using design variables, body dimensions, target population characteristics, and reference posture related to the PARE console. In terms of GUI, the usability evaluation was conducted by three usability testing experts with a 7-point scale (1 : very low, 4 : neutral, 7 : very high) on GUI of the PARE operation console by seven usability criteria. The improved PARE operation console was designed to reflect the optimal values of design variables calculated from design formula, the results from usability testing, and the operator's needs. The improvement effect was observed by 20 people who had experience with the PARE operation console. As a result of the validation, monitor visibility and cockpit visibility for the improved PUI design and visibility and efficiency for the improved GUI design were significantly increased by more than 90% respectively. The improved design of the PARE operation console in this study can contribute to enhance operation performance of the PARE.

현대 전력계통 시스템의 대규모화와 복잡화로 인해 숙련된 운전기술이 필요하게 되고, 실제 전력계통 모의를 통한 미경험고장의 처리기술 습득이 필요하고, 운전설비의 첨단화(컴퓨터 시스템화)로 인해 시스템과 운용절차에 대한 지식 습득 및 유지보수 훈련이 필요하게 됨에 따라 교육용 시뮬레이션에 대한 요구가 갈수록 증가되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 교육용 시뮬레이션에서 전력계통의 시스템을 익히고 전력계통 고장에 따른 복구절차를 배우는데 필요한 모의고장 시나리오 및 복구절차 등의 데이터베이스를 구축하며, 데이터베이스를 시뮬레이터와 연동시켜 작동하도록 개발하는 것이 목적이다. 또한 사용자들에게 보다 편리한 환경을 제공하기 위하여 GUI(Graphic User Interface)로 시뮬레이터를 설계할 것이다.

In this paper, we propose the function verification method of the OLED(Organic Light Emitting Diode) drive IC using PLI verification method. This method uses the HDL(Hardware Description Language) simulator, PLI(Programing Language Interface), and GUI (Graphic User Interface) image viewer. This method improves the execute efficiency 40 times than conventional function verification methods. The proposed method can be used efficiently for function verification of DDI(display driver IC) design step.

Embedded products are becoming richer in features. Simulation tools facilitate low-costs and the efficient development of embedded systems. SID is an open source simulation software that includes a library of components for modeling hardware and software components. SID components were originally written using C/C++ and Tcl/Tk. Tcl/Tk has mainly been used for GUI simulation in the SID system. However, Tcl/Tk components are hampered by low performance, and GUI development using Tcl/Tk also has poor flexibility. Therefore, it would be desirable to use a more advanced programming language, such as Java, to provide simulations of cutting-edge products with rich graphics. Here, we describe the development of the Java Bridge Module as a middleware that will enable the use of Java Components in SID. We also extended the low-level SID API to Java. In addition, we have added classes that contain default implementations of the API. These classes are intended to ensure the compatibility and simplicity of SID components in Java.

The problem that we address is to determine the inventory stockage levels in a multi-echelon inventory system for repairable items in a multi-indenture system. We propose the simulation optimization approach to determine the stockage levels at each echelon, where a simulator for the underlying system is combined with an appropriate optimization tool, Genetic Algorithm (GA).

본고에서는 현재 일반적으로 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 네트워크 시뮬레이터인 NS-2(Network Simulator-2)에 대하여 알아본다. NS-2는 네트워킹의 성능분석을 목적으로 개발된 이벤트 기반(event-driven)의 시뮬레이터이다. 이 시뮬레이터의 적용 범위는 유선 네트워크의 경우 TCP/IP 프로토콜 패밀리와 각종 라우팅 프로토콜에 대한 시뮬레이션이 가능하며, 무선 네트워크에 경우에는 Ad Hoc 네트워크, WLAN, Mobile-IP와 Cellular network 등의 시뮬레이션이 가능하다. GUI가 부족하고 사용이 어렵다는 단점에도 불구하고, 공개된 소스와 두터운 이용자층에 힘입어 널리 사용되는 NS-2의 개요 및 시뮬레이션 방법에 대해 알아보기로 한다.
