The purpose of this study was to search for the effective design process model f3r mass customized clothing. Therefore, this study was to propose two models of mass customized fashion design processes which were different in the customized degree and to compare their efficiencies and appropriateness with those of the existing fashion design process. The data was obtained from a survey of 150 females in their twenties and thirties living in Seoul and Gyeonggi during April in 2003. It was analysed by frequency, $X^2-test$, crosstabulation, correlation, t-test and multiple-regression. The results of survey were: Many respondents$(62.0\%)$ preferred mass customized products and mass customized design process model which suggested more choices to presumers. The mass customized design process was considered to be applicable to the present domestic clothing market. In the case of the whole respondents, color was a very important design element in mass customized design process model; because of this, the opportunity to choose colors will be essential in mass customized design process. In the case of respondents who have higher preference on mass customized products, textile(texture) was a very important design element. In the cases of both(whole respondents and respondents who have higher preference on mass customized products), style was the most important design element in fashion design process. To summarize, it proposed that to accept the mass customized clothing will be possible in this study. What is more, the guidelines to develope mass customized fashion design process model were suggested in this study.

이 연구에서는 대량생산의 장점인 낮은 가격대 창출과 주문생산의 장점인 고객지향을 추구하는 매스 커스터마이제이션(Mass Customization) 방식에 따른 의류제품의 생산모델을 개발하였다. 특히 체형이 매우 다양한 시기에 있어 이러한 고객지향적 의복이 더욱 필요한 중년여성들을 대상으로 하여 기성복에서 얻을 수 없는 인체적합도가 높은 의복을 생산할 수 있도록 하였다. 이 모델은 소비자 체형파악과 체형별 패턴제작의 어려움을 해결해주기 때문에 의류제조업체의 패턴제작과정을 용이하게 해주고, 모든 생산이 주문에 따라 이루어지므로 재고부담을 감소시키게 된다. 생산모델은 크게 5 단계로 나뉜다. 1 단계는 소비자가 제품에 대한 정보를 얻어 선택을 하는 단계이고, 2 단계는 소비자의 신체치수 계측 및 입력, 체형판별의 단계이다. 1) 단계에서는 이러한 내용을 포함하는 주문서를 작성하여 본사로 전송하고. 4 단계에서는 제품을 생산한다. 그리고 5 단계는 제품의 배송 단계이다. 이 연구에서 실질적으로 검증한 매스 커스터마이제이션 의류제품의 생산과정은 주문단계에서 패턴의 수정 단계까지이며, 이후의 마커제작에서 배송단계까지는 생산설비상의 문제 때문에 설명으로 제시하였다. 또한 매스 커스터마이제이션 의류제품에서 특히 중요한 단계는 고객에 대학 접근방법과 가봉 없이도 인체적합도가 높은 의복을 생산하는 것이므로 이 연구에서는 이를 중심으로 다루었다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze fashion brands' contents and characteristics of the participation platform of users, to assess the types and strategies of mass customization(MC). Most fashion brands sell one professional content: Shoes brands were the most common, followed by bags, unisex wear, and menswear. In consumer's design selection elements, changes in color and materials were the most common. For the personalization service elements, monogram service was the most common. The results of MC types analysis were as follows, Customized Standardization was the most common, followed by Tailored Customization, Pure Customization, and Segmented Standardization. For the types according to changes in products and expression methods, Cosmetic was the most common. And the classification according to modulation, Modularizers were the most common. For Creativity, brands in the making stage were the most common. For Flexibility, although brands different methods, high flexibility by modularizing design elements of products and accomplishing various design through participation. The Ease of use for various expression was generally high, parallel to Flexibility. For Durability, because consumers could receive end products only when they participated in the assembly stage in the on-line purchase, their continuous participation was not possible, so they participated only once. The typical types and strategy of MC were analyzed. The Customized Standardization type was the most common in shoes, bag, and womenswear brands. It was the Cosmetic type which could change colors and materials, the Modularizers, and had high Flexibility and Ease of use and low Durability.

The computer is an important tool to design an engineering system and CAD systems are widely used for various design practice. To meet the market requirements, the old mass production system is being changed into the mass customization system. As for CAD systems, it is increasingly required to extend, automate, and customize a wide range of functionality. This article describes the state-of-the-art of the principal technologies for customizing CAD systems. And we have implemented an application that enables the parametric design by directly inputting numerical values of parameters for a CAD model. Based on this application, we have developed another system that makes it possible sharing of part family data between SolidEdge and Pro/Engineer. Through customization of CAD systems, it is possible to improve the product quality using external knowledge-based systems or to integrate with external system such as CAE tools. This paper can be a guide for engineering designers who want to customize CAD systems.

To realize the mass customization entails the optimized supply chain design for efficiently producing and delivering the various products. In this study, we considered the problem obtaining the optimized production policy under the situation wherein the multiple products are apportioned into multiple parallel production facilities. More specifically, the production set-up costs incurs according to whether the production facilities are utilized or not. The facility-dependent set-up costs increase the problem complexity in solving the production apportioning problem for multiple products. This problem can be formulated as concave minimization problem, which is known as NP-hard problem. In this paper, a heuristic algorithm is proposed to solve two conjoint problems : one is to select the cost-effective facilities from alternative multiple production facilities and the other is to apportion the production lot to those selected facilities.
