This paper describes an information model, devised to manage roadway design information and to improve the collaboration among the multidisciplinary design teams. An analysis concerning the workflow, the rules and the functions of current roadway design was conducted. A process model based on the result of the analysis was developed by utilizing IDEF0 methodology. The process model reflects the interdependencies among multidisciplinary design disciplines and is capable of managing communication processes. This paper also discusses the design information hierarchy and the component representation schemes for systematic design information management. It is anticipated that the proposed information model would be able to improve the overall process of design of roadway construction projects by managing design information and helping the participants communicate and share information of the project effectively.

In a flexible manufacturing system, a cell controller is able to identify and evaluate a number of alternative decisions to meet the objectives set by the factory level controller. In this paper, a Petri net-based cell controller is presented to accomplish this task. A static model is developed by using the Integrated Computer Aided Definition(IDEF0) method to represent clear functional relationships among the objects of the system. Based on the static model, two Petri net models are developed for the physical part flow and for the information flow. Multiple decision alternatives are generated from the physical part flow model and are synchronized with the information flow model for execution of the selected alternative.

Regarding project management, many organizations have developed and distributed general project management knowledge systems, and application fields use the knowledge systems to apply the process suitable for characteristics of a project. This study suggests project management process models to apply to system integration projects. This system integration project management process model is composed of six top processes of initiation, preparation for contract, planning, implementation management, coordination and control, and termination and transfer. The five processes are re-divided into 25 bottom processes. These processes are expressed as input, control, output, and mechanism by using the IDEF0 model. For this model development, it has chosen the items which constituted a process through a questionnaire of experts.

In a competitive environment, systems design should be agile to accomplish business goal. However, there are often significant problems with systems design that is manifested in the fact that there are no current techniques to apply rigorous mathematics to semantic conveyance in the design framework. As a promising solution, this paper introduces situation theory (ST) and provides an application of ST for information flow in manufacturing systems design (IDEF0). The described work in this paper addresses the procedure of creation of IAST Model (Inf-Act On in Situation Theory) which is the first application of ST in engineering fields. Finally, we show that IAST Model is very helpful for effective information capturing in systems by comparison existing methodology with developed methodology as a practical application of ST.

Regarding project management, many organizations have developed and distributed general project management knowledge systems, and application fields use the knowledge systems to apply the process suitable for characteristics of a project. This study suggests project management process models to apply to product development projects and introduces the application cases. This product development project management process model is composed of five top processes of initiation and preparation, planning, implementation management, control, and termination and transfer. The five processes are re-divided into 18 bottom processes. These processes are expressed as input, control, output, and mechanism by using the IDEF0 model. This model is applied to the new car development project of a Korean automobile company and introduces the cases, which shows a project charter, a work breakdown structure, a project schedule, a progress s-curve, a risk register, and a performance report.

A significant number of projects have been managed by US Army Corps of Engineers FED. Today, more information must be provided to the parties involved in the projects by phase than ever before. Specifically, USFK`s construction projects have been managed by FED(Far East District). Recently, however, large US private construction companies have been filling the role previously taken by FED. However, there is few construction managers to implement FED project in Korea. Accordingly, this study analyzes FED projects practices with focus on the construction management actors in order to suggest guideline. This study suggests a model FED construction process(Bid, Contract, Construction, As-Built Phase) by analyzing the existing FED project process using a IDEF0 methodology.

Nowadays, the increasing global competition forces automobile manufacturer to increase quality and to reduce the cost and time for manufacturing planning. To solve these problems, automobile manufacturers try to apply digital manufacturing technologies. In this paper, a concept of method for planning the digital assembly system is proposed. Based on the requirements of assembly tasks obtained through product analysis, the function and sequence modeling for assembly process is executed using the IDEF0 and UML model. For implementation of digital assembly system, the selected components are modeled by using 3D CAD tools. According to the system configuration strategy, lots of the alternative solutions for the assembly system are generated. Finally, the optimal assembly system is chosen by the evaluation of the alternative solutions with TOPSIS(Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method. According to proposed procedure, digital laser welding system is implemented in DELMIA.

제품-계열 방법은 소프트웨어 개발시 나오는 산출물들을 핵심자산으로 만들어 놓고, 이를 체계적으로 재사용할 수 있도록 지원하기 위한 프레임워크 역할을 한다. 그 초점은 소프트웨어 아키텍처나 상세설계 또는 코드에 맞추어져 있어서 임베디드 시스템 개발시 임베디드라는 특성화된 요구사항을 분석하고, 도출 하는데 미흡한 부분이 있다. 본 논문에서는 임베디드 시스템 개발시 요구분석 단계에 IDEF0 비즈니스 모델을 적용한 Feature 도출 및 분석 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 도메인 요구사항을 관리하는 측면에서 전체시스템에 대한 정확한 요구사항 도출과 분석이 가능하고, 도출된 Feature에 대한 공통성과 가변성을 식별 하는데 효율적이다.

Modular construction can improve construction quality and accuracy through manufacturing process, and it allow massive production and cost savings by repeatedly producing the same unit. In particular, it is possible to reduce the time because the on-site work and the manufacturing process can be carried out at simultaneously. However, according to the modular construction project survey report, there is no significant difference regarding the average construction period between modular construction and conventional construction. This is due to schedule delay problems that occur during construction phase. Therefore, it is necessary to select alternatives to prevent schedule delay during on-site construction progressing. Especially, in case of large-scale modular construction project, on-site module assembly and manufacturing process are performed concurrently. Hence, identification of alternatives should be done at the co-occurrence by taking both manufacturing and on-site work process in to account. In this research, the management factors of large-scale modular construction project were identified through the IDEF0 modeling, and the quantity management model for manufacturing and assembly is developed. This will reduce the schedule delay problem that occurs in the progression on-site work of a large scale modular construction.
