Thesedays more collaboration is required of scholars than before, because some complex problems are beyond the individuals' research capability. Traditional print-based journal systems have been playing a role of supporting scientific collaboration, in that they provide the state-of-the-art knowledge. Those journal systems, however, are known to have some problems. To cope with some of those problems of the print-based journal systems, electronic journal systems have been suggested and implemented. Investigation shows us that electronic journal systems still have some problems. This paper proposes a new form of electronic journal system, structured electronic journal system, which is believed to better support the scientific collaboration. It is designed so that it is easier to figure out the synopsis of an article and so that authors and referees of a submitted paper can participate in the discussion for verifying the significance of the paper. Object-oriented design of a structured electronic journal system which is to be built on top of a object-oriented database system is explained with example structures.

The purpose of this study is to establish a component reutilization system in Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) by Object-Oriented Systems Engineering Method (OOSEM). Unified Modeling Language (UML) is mainly used for OOSEM. Operational Concept (OpsCon), Use cases, Structure Diagrams, and Behavior Diagrams are developed to analyze stakeholders needs, system requirements, logical architecture, and physical architecture. Based on the current decommissioning and purchasing system of the component, some activities from their systems were excepted and additional new activities were developed for a component reutilization system.

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is rapidly emerging as the efficient approach in contemporary complex, heterogeneous computing environments. SOA increases the adaptability by loose coupling and its main feature is that three elements such as service provider, service requester and service registry are connected with each other systematically. To design the service-oriented system efficiently, a metric to measure the coupling between services accurately is needed. In this paper, we propose four coupling metrics for SOA based softwares. First, we suggest a coupling metric for service-oriented systems by modifying an established coupling metric of object-oriented systems. Then we suggest another coupling metric which includes indirect coupling between services. We also suggest two relative coupling metrics to measure coupling between subsystems. We investigate the theoretical soundness of the proposed metrics by the axioms of Briand et al. Finally, we apply the presented metrics to an industrial-scale case study.

In accordance with the advancement of IT, application systems with various and complex functions are being required. Such application systems are typically built based on database in order to manage data efficiently. But most object-oriented analysis design methodologies for developing web application systems have not been providing interconnections with the database. Since the requirements regarding the security issues increased, the importance of security has become emphasized. However, since the security is usually considered at the last step of development, it is difficult to apply the security during the whole process of system development, from the requirement analysis to implementation. Therefore, this paper suggests an object-oriented analysis and design methodology for secure database design from the requirement analysis to implementation. This object-oriented analysis and design methodology for secure database design offers correlations with database that most existing object-oriented analysis and design methodologies could not provide. It also uses UMLsec, the modeling language, to apply security into database design. In addition, in order to implement security, RBAC (Role Based Access Control) of relational database is used.

Recently, as business problems become more complicated and require more precise quantitative results, large-scale model management systems are increasingly in demand for supporting the decision-making activities. In addition, as distributed computing over networks gains popularity, departmental computing systems are gradually adopted in an organization to facilitate collaboration of geographically dispersed multiple departments. In departmental collaborative model management systems, multiple departments share common models but approach them with different user-views depending on their departmental needs. Moreover, the shared models become evolved as their structures and the corresponding data sets change due to the dynamic nature of the operating environment and the inherent uncertainty associated with the problems. In such capacity, providing the multiple departmental users with synchronized and consistent views of the models is important to improve the overall productivity. In this paper, we propose a collaborative model management framework for coordinating model change and automatic user-view update in a departmental computing environment. To do so, we describes changes in the model and their effects occurred in departmental model management environments and identifies the constructs and processes for maintaining the consistency between a shared model and its departmental user-views. Especially, in this framework, generic model concept was adopted for accommodating diverse mathematical models in a uniform way in a modelbase and object-oriented database management systems(ODBMS) for combining the model management constructs and automatic user-view update mechanisms in a single formalism. A prototype object-oriented modeling environment was developed using an ODBMS called ObjectStore and $C^{++}$ programming language on Windows NT.

In conventional analysis methods, data and process are loosely coupled for building information systems. Several object oriented approaches have been proposed to integrate data and process. However, object oriented analysis requires a radical paradigm and thus system analysts find difficulties in generating object models direcctly from end users. To alleviate these difficulties, this paper proposes a methodology for deriving an object model by using structured analysis results. Objects are obtianed primarily from entities in Entity-Relationship Diagram. Methods are obtained through the analysis of the relationship between processes and data stores in Data Flow Diagram Methods are assigned to the objects by using object/process matrices. A real-life case is illustrated to demonstrate the usefulness of the methodology.

Recently, large-scale enterprise information systems are commonly based on the multi-tiered middleware or frameworks to support such requirements as functional reuse, heterogeneous system resources, and multiple platforms. However, these multi-tiered or distributed multi-platform architecture incurs the interoperability issue of the components and metadata among the middleware. This paper introduces the Simple Object Application Framework (SOAF) which supports heterogeneous resources and platform-independent component-based development, with the abstract programming style of the object-oriented frameworks and the XML-SOAP based component persistence mechanism.

These days, in order to satisfy the complex and various demands of the customers, the telecommunication networks must provide rapid and flexible services, with the support of efficient service and network management systems. To satisfy these requirements, many objects for management have been released to manage network services and elements. But there are no efficient ways to manage these newly managed objects in object-oriented software. Therefore, we study several problems, when a subsystem using object-oriented technique is implemented. The first problem is that interface works between realized application programs using its technique. The second problem is that reusability of internal managed objects is difficult. In this paper, we will point out some problems and to solve these problems, we have proposed the Object Management System (OMS) architecture, which supports a transparent interface between object-oriented applications and the distributed data repositories. Also in order to manage efficient business objects stored in the different repositories, we suggest a method for integrating dynamic information resources in heterogeneous and distributed network environments. Finally, we applied OMS to TINA(Telecommunication Information Network Architecture) domain, implemented OMS, and verified it with SMV(Symbolic Model Verifier) which is model checking technology.

The design of distrbuted systems is difficult to achieve as the execution patterns of distrbuted systems are typically more complex than those of non- distributed systems. Thus, research toward the development of design methods for distributed systems is quitely needed. As object-oriented systems and distrbuted systems share similar properties, the combination of these two is somehow natural. In this work, a design of distributed systems is introduced. The goal of the method in this paper is to provide assistance to the process of specifying a formal object- oriented specification from graphical representation specification inputs such as data flow diagrams, state transition diagrams and Petri nets. It addresses the extraction of objects, operations and reationshipsfrom the problem domain with emphasis on the specification of the characteristics of distributed systems. This object identification method is supported by a knowledge base that provides for the automated analysis and reasoning about objects and their relationsships. The final object model is represented in a format which provides a formal mechanism for reprsenting the object information.

Object-oriented database systems have been proposed as an effective solution for providing the data management facilities of complex applications. Proving this claim and the investigation of related issues such as query processing have been hampered by the absence of a formal object-oriented query model. In this paper, we not only define a query model based on aggregation inheritance but also develop semantic rewriting rules which are applied to equivalence preserving rewrite rules in algebraic expression of a query. Analyzing semantically the query model, the query model can be optimized to logically object-oriented query processing. And algebra expresstions of a query can be optimized by applying equivalence preserving rewrite rules.
