The purpose of this paper is to define the concept of KAD/KAM, furthermore is to establish my own idea on the knowledge related works in engineering domain for a next decade ahead. KAD/KAM is represented as "Knowledge Everywhere" based on the concept of ubiquitous computing in engineering domain. At the beginning of the paper, the definition of KAD/KAM is described. And the related technologies to realize KAD/KAM, such as augmented reality, ontology, data mining, and knowledge management, are introduced. The concept of KAD/KAM is still immature. But this will be a new paradigm to change entire engineering environment in near future.

Different from other ontology languages, TopicMap is capable of integrating numerous amount of heterogenous information resources using the locational information without any information transformation. Although many conventional editors have been developed for topic maps, they are standalone-type only for writing XTM documents. As a result, these tools request too much time for handling large-scale data and provoke practical problems to integrate with legacy systems which are mostly based on relational database. In this paper, we model a large-scale topic map structure based on XTM 1.0 into RDB structure to minimize the processing time and build up the ontology in legacy systems. We implement a topic map platform called X-TOP that can enhance the efficiency of ontology construction and provide interoperability between XTM documents and database. Moreover, we can use conventional SQL tools and other application development tools for topic map construction in X-TOP. The X-TOP is implemented to have 3-tier architecture to support flexible user interfaces and diverse DBMS. This paper shows the usability of X-TOP by means of the comparison with conventional tools and the application to healthcare cancer ontology management.

According to 2005 Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey, it has been reported that 32.9% men and 31.8% women have Metabolic syndrome among the population of age 30 and over. The importance of prevention and management is being emphasized in Metabolic syndrome which is a complex disease related to various generic and environmental factors like other chronical disease. In this study we suggest an service based on the data using the system architecture, ontology and Jena2.0 inference engine and organizing the disease-related guideline. The study also arrives at the result through proper interpretation and reasoning process using health management service model based on ontology. The accuracy according to the situation was tested and 930 data samples were selected and experimented. We drew a conclusion that the much personalized data is available, the more personalized services are possible. Since the risk factors of Metabolic syndrome are various, it would be effective to suggest customized services based on various personalized data.

This paper proposes a design and realization for the semantic search system. The proposed model includes three Architecture Layers of a Semantic Search System ; (they are conceptually named as) the Knowledge Acquisition, the Knowledge Representation and the Knowledge Utilization. Each of these three Layers are designed to interactively work together, so as to maximize the users' information needs. The Knowledge Acquisition Layer includes index and storage of Semantic Metadata from various source of web contents(eg : text, image, multimedia and so on). The Knowledge Representation Layer includes the ontology schema and instance, through the process of semantic search by ontology based query expansion. Finally, the Knowledge Utilization Layer includes the users to search query intuitively, and get its results without the users'knowledge of semantic web language or ontology. So far as the design and the realization of the semantic search site is concerned, the proposedsemantic search system will offer useful implications to the researchers and practitioners so as to improve the research level to the commercial use.

Recently, the Internet of Things technologies are continuously advanced, and IoT devices are being used in various domain. IoT platforms should not only collect and manage data by connecting to various devices, but also monitor and control them. However, conventional IoT platforms have different data types and protocols, and have the problem of not monitoring or controlling cross-platform devices. This research proposes an ontology-based IoT platform to resolve this problem. Therefore, this research analyzes the types and characteristics of conventional IoT platforms, and this paper proposes a new platform architecture based on the analysis. The proposed platform is expected to flexible data management and improvement of interoperability between other platforms by utilizing ontology technology.

Software change is an essential operation for software evolution. To maintain the system competently, managers as well as developers must be able to understand the structure of the system but the structure of software is hidden to the developers and managers who need to change it. In this paper, we present a system (OntCIA) for supporting change impact analysis for rating and billing domain based on the semantic web technology. The basic idea of OntCIA is to build a domain knowledge base using an OWL ontology and RDF to implement change impact analysis system that would support the managers and software developers in finding out information about structure of large software system. OntCIA allows users to incrementally build an ontology in rating and billing domain and provides useful information in response to user queries concerning the code, such as, for example 'Find the modules which have a role for confirming new subscription'. The strengths of OntCIA are its architecture for easy maintenance as well as semantic indexing by automatic reasoning.

The semantic information provided through the semantic-based IoT system will produce new high value-added products that are completely different from what we have known and experienced. From this point of view, the key issue of current IoT technology and applications is the development of an intelligent IoT platform architecture. The proposed system collects the IoT data of the sensors from the cloud computer, converts them into RDF, and annotates them with semantics. The converted semantic data is shared and utilized through the ontology repository. We use KT's IoTMakers as a cloud computing environment, and the ontology repository uses Jena's Fuseki server to express SPARQL query results on the web using Daum Map API and Highcharts API. This gives people the opportunity to access the semantic IoT mash-up service easily and has various application possibilities.

In order to derive hidden Information (concept subsumption, concept satisfiability and realization) of OWL ontologies, a number of OWL reasoners have been introduced. Most of the reasoners were implemented to be based on tableau algorithm. However this approach has certain limitation. This paper presents architecture for Medusa. The Medusa is an extended DL-reasoner for SWRL(Semantic Web Rule Language) reasoning under well-founded semantics with ontologies specified in Description Logic. Description logic based ontology reasoners theoretically explore knowledge representation and its reasoning in concept languages. However these logics are not equipped with rule-based reasoning mechanisms for assertional knowledge base; specifically, rule and facts in logic programming, or interaction of rules and facts with terminology. In order to deal with the enriched reasoning, The Medusa provides combining DL-knowledge base and rule based reasoner. The described prototype uses $Prot{\acute{e}}g{\acute{e}}$ API[1] for controlling communication with the ontology reasoner.

The aim of this study is to review the meaning of technologies in the works of Louis I. Kahn. Kahn's main architectural thoughts of 'what it wants to be' and 'how it was done' are important in this research because these statements represent the ontology of his architecture and tectonic characteristics. These divisions also can be effective in studying relationship between technology and his architecture. 'What it wants to be' means the essence and existence of architecture and 'how it was done' shows the tectonic of architecture and construction process to enhance its presence. Kahn used technology as solutions for partial problems in his early years but later he changed its role as media to realize his concept ideally. He considered technology as enhancing building's existence rather than its functional and economical efficiency. Kahn also visualize the usage of technology through detail and construction process. He developed his technology in 'application-modification-complement' process as he executed projects over again. As a result, technology itself cannot drive Kahn's architectural thoughts in a certain way but Kahn emphasized technology as media to enhance the presence of his architecture and to present visualization and realization of his concepts.

현재 기술 동향에 따라, 언제 어디서나 통신 및 컴퓨팅이 가능한 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 시스템(Ubiquitous Computing System)을 위해 사용자 및 주변 환경의 상황을 인식하는 기술(Context-Aware Computing System)이 필수적인 요소로 부각되고 있다. 하지만, Context-Aware Computing System을 구현하기 위해서 사용자 및 주변 환경으로부터 입력되는 불확실하거나 모호한 상황정보에 대한 표현과 추론에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 이를 해결하기 위해 Rule-based System을 기반으로 CRS와 DOS의 개념을 도입하여 상황인식 기술을 SoC로 구현할 수 있도록 새로운 Architecture를 제안한다. 마지막으로는 CRS와 DOS가 Network Topolgy에 적용된 RODMRP(Resilient Ontology-based Dynamic Multicast Routing Protocol)의 예를 통해 그 효용성을 입증하고, Ubiquitous Computing System에서 활용 가능한 방법 등을 제시한다.
