  • The design of injection molded polymeric parts has been done empirically, since it requires profound knowledge about the moldability and causal effects on the properties of the part, which are not available to designers through current CAD systems. An interactive computer-based design system is developed in order to realize the concept of rational design for the productivity and quality of mold making. The knowledge-based CAD system is constructed by adding the knowledge -base module for mold feature synthesis and appropriate CAE programs for mold design analysis in order to provide designers, at the initial design stage, with comprehensive process knowledge for feature synthesis, performance analysis and feature-based geometric modeling. A knowledge-based CAD system is a new tool which enables the concurrent design with integrated and balanced design decisions at the initial design stage of injection molding.

  • Research and case study on implementing Knowledge Management (KM) in various fields have been published. However, KM could be misunderstood as developed Information Technology (IT) rather than a managerial tool to support knowledge creation in an organization unless the theoretical background on the evolution of KM is rigorously considered. This paper aims to review philosophy of science and managerial trends that can explain the reasons for introducing KM into the industry. Based on this theoretical background, Soft Systems Method (SSM), one of method to facilitate knowledge flows, are explained. SSM has been developed to cope with the characteristics of knowledge distinguished from data and information. Further research topics relevant to SSM in construction management as a practical application and educational tool are presented.

  • Although conventional computer programs use efficient and precise optimization algorithms, they can not emulate the problem solving capabilities of human experts. A design optimization process involves a number of tasks which require human expertise and experience. Traditional optimization systems have concentrated on numerical aspects of a design process and have not been successful in integrating the numerical parts with human expertise. On the other hand, most knowledge-based systems focus on symbolic reasoning and have been little concerned with the numerical processes. The objective of this paper is to develop a knowledge-based multiobjective optimum design system which has the capabilities of knowledge processing and numerical computation by integrating the multiobjective optimization method and the knowledge-based system. The knowledge-based system for symbolic processing is developed. Rules for knowledge representation and the inference mechanism of the system are written in LISP. The knowledge-based multiobjective optimum design system is finally developed by integrating the multiobjective optimization method and the knowledge-based system by applying shell programming technique. The system is applied to an optimum design model of a LNG carrier in the preliminary design stage. It is found that the system well simulate design variables and objective functions of the design model.

  • The knowledge management is increasingly an important strategic weapon for sustaining competitive advantage of firms. Firms are undertaking knowledge management initiatives and making significant investments. However, there is relatively little empirical support for the impact of knowledge management on performance of firms. Understanding of the impact of knowledge management, this paper explores how knowledge management strategy influences firms' market value. We examine this issue using event study methodology and evaluate the cumulative abnormal returns for knowledge management strategy announced by firms from 1998 to 2002. The results show that firms' announcements of knowledge management strategy are positively related with firms' market value. Specially, dynamic style-which emphasizes both (i) knowledge reusability through information technologies and (ii) knowledge sharing through informal discussions among employees-has higher performance. This outcome presents empirical support to argument that the emphasis on both tacit and explicit knowledge results in better market value.

  • During the last three decades, earth science has been re-conceptualized as an interdisciplinary discipline entitled Earth System Science (ESS), which is based on knowledge of the physical earth system and human impact on the earth. While there is increasing effort to teach earth as a system in K-12 education, teachers' preparedness of to teach earth system is still in its infancy. This article focuses on reviewing the literature of teachers' knowledge of earth systems and of how teachers' knowledge of subject matter affects their teaching practice and pedagogical content knowledge (PCK). First, the study investigated a literature of PCK in general as well as in science teaching. Then this study duscuss what teachers' subject matter knowledge (SMK) is and what it means to be in teaching earth system science. Third, a literature of teachers' knowledge of earth system was reviewed. Finally, a number of suggestions and implications are made as to what teacher education program should do to better prepare future teachers to teach earth systems.

  • This paper tries to closely look at compliance knowledge relatedness and IT relatedness based on Tanriverdi's 'relatedness' concept. Also, this paper's main focus lies on how knowledge relatedness and IT relatedness influence compliance performance through compliance knowledge exploitation. The present study conducted a full-scale survey and finalized questionnaire was sent to compliance managers of 187 Korean multi-business firms. This study found (1) the impact of compliance knowledge relatedness on compliance performance, (2) the mediating role of knowledge exploitation on the relationship between compliance knowledge relatedness and compliance performance, and (3) the interaction effect of IT relatedness and compliance knowledge relatedness on knowledge exploitation. This paper contributes to both academic and business world by widening applicability of theories and providing guidelines conducive to improved compliance performance of corporations.

  • Artificial Intelligence is generally concerned with tasks whose execution appears to involve some intelligence if done by humans, and knowledge-based system ( in other word, expert system) is the research about the specific domain. This concept also can be applied to interior design field. So the purpose of this study is in reconstructing the accomplishment of artificial Intelligence and knowledge engineering, searching basic theories and cased to knowledge engineering , searching basic theories and cases to formulate knowledge -based design system, and testing the posibilities how the design information can be dealt in computer system. Given that recognition , two major problems must be solved before knowledge-based CAD systems could be come practical : Firstly , identification of the interior of designers use .Secondly , representing this knowledge in a computationally effective manner. I had discussed the basic concepts on which to base a knowledge- based design model, knowledge representation schemes, and problem solving, I could find the possibility which the knowledge-based system can be applied to the interior design according to this study. But there are non-deductive, often irrational and now easily computerized design process in interior design. Those are problems which are relevant to the machine learning and the creativity in design. So there should be a lot of research about the machine learning and the creatively in design in order to construct successfully intelligent knowledge-based design system.

  • Rule minimization technique adapted from rough set theory was applied to remove redundant knowledge which is not necessary to make a knowledge base. New algorithm to diagnose fault using Improved Fuzzy Cognitive Maps(I-FCMs), and Fuzzy Associative Memory(FAM) is proposed. I-FCM[22] is superior to gathering knowledge from many experts and descries dynamic behaviors of systems very well. I-FCM is not only a knowledge base, but also a inference engine. FAM has learning capability like neural network[12]. Rule minimization and composition of I-FCM and FAM make it possible to construct compact knowledge base and breaks the border between inference engine and knowledge base.
