The probabilistic production cost is calculated by the Expected Incremental Generation Cost Curve(EIGC) method based on the multi-state and multi-block operating conditions. For this, A new algorithm for determining production cost by the EIGC and the generation availability curve (GAC) had been developed in order to realize better economic olad dispatch and better reliability for power system operation. The simpler method for determining the EIGC and the GAC is proposed for convenience and saving in computation time.

Most production scheduling system in the ERP is based on the MRP. The MRP does not adapt to the change of the product design and the production schedule. It is important to keep due date in make-to-order production small and medium company. But it hard to keep due date on the MRP. The DBR Scheduling system of the TOC is excellent for adapting to production system change and suitable to make-to-order production small and medium compan. In this thesis, we make a system design using the Together(UML tool) and develope a production scheduling system using Microsoft Visual Basic.Net.

The use of POP(Point of Production) systems which help to report the realtime production information to the supervisor class and to send commands to the shop floor is increasing gradually. Future companies will need to break the limit of regions and to exchange information among remote-sited departments and companies located abroad. In order to achieve this goal, Internet which is growing remarkably nowadays will be the best tool. In this research, a prototype of the POP system based on Internet is developed using the Java language. The developed POP system can monitor production status by collecting information from shop floor through a web server and can control production equipments from remote sites.

An alternative interpretation of the completeness requirements for the higher order elements is presented. Apart from the familiar condition, $\sum_iN_i=1$, some additional conditions to be satisfied by the shape functions of higher order elements are identified. Elements with their geometry in the natural form, i.e., without any geometrical distortion, satisfy most of these additional conditions inherently. However, the geometrically distorted elements satisfy only fewer conditions. The practical implications of the satisfaction or non-satisfaction of these additional conditions are investigated with respect to a 3-node bar element, and 8- and 9-node quadrilateral elements. The results suggest that non-satisfaction of these additional conditions results in poorer performance of the element when the element is geometrically distorted. Based on the new interpretation of completeness requirements, a 3-node element and an 8-node rectangular element that are insensitive to mid-node distortion under a quadratic displacement field have been developed.

The objective of this study is to integrate the business, maintenance and production processes of a manufacturing system by incorporating errors. First, the required functions are estimated according to the historical data. The system activities are simulated by Visual SLAM software and the required outputs are obtained. Several outputs including lead times in different dimensions, total cost and production rates are computed through simulation. Finally, data envelopment analysis (DEA) is utilized in order to select the best option between the defined scenarios due to the multi-criteria feature of the problem. This is the first study in which the lead times, cost and production rates are simultaneously considered in the integrated system imposed of business, maintenance and production processes by incorporating errors. In the current study, the major bottlenecks of the system being studied are identified and suggested different strategies to improve the system and make the best decision.

An efficient torso pattern has been developed to cope with the future trend of order-based, individualized production like the E.C.(Electronic Commerce) in the apparel industry, and to make a database foundation of automatic garment pattern drafting. For this purpose, a non-contact three-dimensional anthropometric measurement system was used to provide a lot of accurate body data for better individual fit, and an automatic pattern drafting system that can easily generate various size patterns and construct a pattern database has been developed too. The subjects of this research were 18 to 24 year-old women whose data had been gathered through the Korean national investigation of anthropometry for industrial standards in 1997 and various body shapes were analyzed by the measurements. And a special software system has been developed to verify the validity of newly proposed drawing rules. The results of sensory evaluation for appearance and moving fitness of the new torso pattern showed a significant improvement in individual fit even for the figures with large deviation from standard shape compared with the results of the traditional one.

This paper suggests a typology of the modes of collaboration for scientific and technological knowledge production and sharing (STKPS) based on knowledge communication types, including organizational factors, communication channel, intensity, and decision-making, that affect STKPS processes. It is mainly designed to rearrange ideas about collaboration drawn from the literature in order to develop a conceptual framework for categorizing modes of collaboration based on how communication patterns shape four modes of collaboration. In the conclusion and discussion part, practical implications, limitations of this study, and further studies are discussed. In particular, the practical implications propose communication patterns suitable for five stages of collaboration processes. As the collaboration initiation or set-up stage is critical, extensive face-to-face communication is recommended in the auditing stage. In the execution stage, media-based communication can be actively utilized, because collaborators will mostly exchange explicit codified knowledge supported by IT. The evaluation and reinforcement stages concentrate on tacit knowledge exchange and explicit knowledge evaluation, which requires intensive face-to-face communication including negotiations for evaluating collaboration outcomes and partnership.

The injection mold industry has strong relationship with many other industries. In the injection mold industry, the harmonious collaboration of the order-making companies, the mold-making companies, and the molded-parts making companies, which are distantly located, is very important. In this study, a web-based collaboration system is developed for the purpose. It offers the criterion to select appropriate production companies. It also tries to minimize the production cost of the mold design by distributing and evaluating the design information. The developed system is constructed using various recent web-programming tools.

The domestic process planning generally relies on calculations based on the construction-standard-production-rate. This method requires trial and error practice during the construction phase to deduce the optimized equipment combination for time and cost. Trial and error during construction can lead to cost overruns and schedule delays. Accordingly, this paper suggests an advanced method for establishing a productivity database based on combinations of equipment and also considering site conditions in order to reduce the timely effort for deducing the optimized equipment combination. For this purpose DES (Discrete Event Simulation) model was developed based on the information provided in the construction-standard-production-rate.

Fast delivery of construction projects provides more value to project owners. Batch production, which is production not in single pieces, but in batches, is a common approach in repetitive construction projects such as multi-unit residential building construction projects. In batch production, the use of a small batch size allows the early start of subsequent activities, and thus can lead to early completion of projects. In addition to batch size, balance between productivities in construction activities can affect project duration. However, the impact of the balance between productivities with regard to their order on project duration has not been studied. The main goal of this study is to test a hypothesis, which is that the order of construction activities' unbalanced productivities affects the amount of time reduction that can be achieved by using a small batch size. A computer-based simulation model was developed, and five different cases were simulated to test the hypothesis. The conclusion of the simulation result is that the order of productivities does not affect the time reduction achieved by using a small batch size. It is expected that the findings of this study can help general contractors make decisions in terms of batch size.
