The objective of this paper is to show how team study can be advanced with the aid of a current computer technology, that is distributed Artificial Intelligence(DAI). Studying distributed problem solving by using groups of artificial agents, DAI can provide important ideas and techniques for the study of team behaviors like team decision making. To demonstrate the usefulness of DAI models as team research tools, a DAI model called 'Team-Soar' was built and a simulation experiment done with the model was introduced, Here, Team-Soar models a naval command and control team consisting of four members whose mission was to identify the threat level of aircraft. The simulation experiment was performed to examine the relationships of team decision scheme and member incompetence with team performance. Generally, the results of the Team-Soar simulation met expectations and confirmed previous findings in the literature. For example, the results support the existence of main and interaction effects of team decision scheme and member competence on team performance. Certain results of the Team-Soar simulation provide new insights about team decision making, which can be tested against human subjects or empirical data.

As IT-based technologies develop, 3D GIS applications that digitally model real environment are being increased. Although the terms related with 3D CIS are used increasingly, research efforts and applications are mostly limited to only 2D GIS or 3D modeling respectively. The reasons are viewed that there have been less research findings or software tools about integration of 2D GIS and 3B models. Thus, this study presents a method to integrate 2D GIS and 3D models by using database as the means for linkage. To illustrate the process, we developed a prototype application using C# language. Within an interface we showed how to integrate different libraries - EON Studio and MapObjects. We expect that the integration techniques we suggest here can be applied to such areas as disaster prevention, transportation and natural resources management.

This paper introduces the software life-cycle V&V (verification and validation) tasks for the KNICS (Korea nuclear instrumentation and control system) project. The objectives of the V&V tasks are mainly to develop a programmable logic controller (PLC) for safety critical instrumentation and control (I&C) systems, and then to apply the PLC to developing the prototype of an engineered safety features-component control system (ESF-CCS) in nuclear power plants. As preparative works for the software V&V, various kinds of software plans and V&V task procedures have been developed according to the software life-cycle management. A number of software V&V tools have been adopted or developed to efficiently support the V&V tasks. The V&V techniques employed in this work include a checklist-based review and inspection, a requirement traceability analysis, formal verification, and life-cycle based software testing.

As the dependence on information systems in enterprises has grown dramatically, the importance of implementing information systems in audit has been increased as well. However, there is a lact of about utilization of information system for audit process. Thus, this study is to investigate the factors that effect auditor's adopting Data Analytics to audit work. Through literature research and focus group interview, we added two factors that affect the behavioral intention to UTAUT model. We have selected performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, anxiety, task fit, behavioral intention as variables and verified hypotheses based on survey questionnaires from auditors. As a result, it was found that performance expectations, social influence, task fit influenced the behavior intention. In Addition, we analyzed adding two variables, IT-related work experience and type of auditor as moderate variable. This study has an implication for companies to motivate implementation as well as activation of Data Analytics technique.

Database administrators are demanded to acquire much knowledges and take great efforts for keeping consistent performance in system. Various principles, methods, and tools have been proposed in many studies and commercial products in order to alleviate such burdens on database administrators, and it has resulted to the automation of DBMS which reduces the intervention of database administrator. This paper suggests a resource selection method that estimates the status of the database system based on the workload characteristics and that recommends tuneable resources. Our method tries to simplify selection information on DBMS status using data-mining techniques, enhance the accuracy of the selection model, and recommend tuneable resource. For evaluating the performance of our method, instances are collected in TPC-C and TPC-W workloads, and accuracy are calculated using 10 cross validation method, comparisons are made between our scheme and the method which uses only the classification procedure without any simplification of informations. It is shown that our method has over 90% accuracy and can perform tuneable resource selection.

In order to point out the best utility of a product (or a service), marketers need to clearly understand and measure the preference of the consumers. Among numerous marketing analysis techniques, the conjoint analysis is one of the popular tools for market research. One of the issues with this tool is the lack of feedback for the respondents. This paper proposes personal stepwise conjoint analysis based on an interactive Web-questionnaire allowing respondents to receive a diagnosis of their evaluation and giving the possibility to reconsider their evaluation. To validate our proposal, experimentation with forty-two respondents is also demonstrated. Experimental results, potential modifications and improvements are detailed in this paper.

Recently, innovative medical services are fast emerging, which include customized medical services based on bio-informatics, composition of cure and well-being exploiting ubiquitous technology, hospital supply chain management using RFID, and so forth. However, conventional approaches for new service development hardly give us systematic model to analyze and produce creative medical services. Because most of them are static and concentrate on microscopic tools or techniques. Thus, it is highly desirable to suggest an integrative framework to organize the whole transformation process from technology to medical service. The objective of this study is to propose a medical service engineering model based on the dynamic innovation theory. The proposed model contains objectives of service system, strategies of hospital, stages, activities required to deal with medical service life cycle, which incorporates the acquisition of new technology, transformation to the product, penetration into market, and adoption of consumers. In addition, the usefulness and applicability of the newly proposed model are provided using catholic medical center example.

The purpose of this paper is to develop the metadata on the information of research result in Science and technology and to design the domain knowledge structure using semantic web technology for further implementation. In this paper, we first analyze the existing theories and techniques related to the metadata in such fields as R&D research result, international standard, and semantic web. Then, we extract and group the relevant factors from Dublin Core, CERIF, and the research results for building the integrated metadata framework. Based on our proposed metadata, we design a domain knowledge structure which employs RDF/RDFS as knowledge representation tool. Therefore, we can implement the ontology which produce the 'intelligent' information service and improve the interoperability between the research institutions. Also, the metadata can be used as the basis for developing National R&D Performance Information, and in terms of research institutions, can be used as tools for managing the their own research results information systematically and consistently.

This paper focuses on the critique of citation analysis and then attempts to prospect for the future. The development of citation analysis has been marked by the invention of new techniques and measures, the exploitation of new tools, and the needs of evaluation of scientific research. Normative theory takes the lead in this development. But critics have questioned both the assumptions and methods of citation analysis. This critics are based on the microsociological perspective.
