This paper illustrates a prototyping framework of the documentation-standards retrieval system via the data mining approach for enhancing software development quality. We first present an approach for designing a retrieval algorithm based on data mining, with the three basic technologies of machine learning, statistics and database management, applied to this system to speed up the searching time and increase the fitness. This approach derives from the observation that data mining can discover unsuspected relationships among elements in large databases. This observation suggests that data mining can be used to elicit new knowledge about the design of a subject system and that it can be applied to large legacy systems for efficiency. Finally, software development quality will be improved at the same time when the project managers retrieving for the documentation standards.

The paper aims to analyze structure of I/Q data observed from radar and reliably estimate rainfall through quality control of I/Q data that can quantify uncertainty of I/Q data occurring due to resultant errors. Radar rainfall data have strong uncertainty due to various factors influencing quality. In order to reduce this uncertainty, previously enumerated errors in quality need to be eliminated. However, errors cannot be completely eliminated in some cases as seen in random errors, so uncertainty is necessarily involved in radar rainfall data. Multi-Lag Method, one of I/Q data quality control methods, was applied to estimate precipitation with regard to I/Q data of rainfall radar in Mt. Sobaek.

The Korea Institute of Energy Research(KIER) has begun collecting horizontal global insolation data since May, 1982 at different locations. Because of a poor reliability of existing data, KIER's new data will be extensively used by the solar system users as well as by research institutes. But the quality of solar insolation data is not always good. This reports on an attempt to identify systematic error in such data using clear-day analysis for data rehabilitation. Clear-day analysis is successful in uncovering solar insolation data of questionable quality. It is not proven that rehabilitation process can improve the quality of data for daily or monthly means, but it is suggested that the method can be used to improve the quality of data for monthly means of several years for use in many applications of solar energy planning. Earlier studies finding a maximum ETR of about 0.80 are confirmed.

The objective of this study was to use remotely sensed data, combined with in situ data, for the assessment of trophic state for Daecheong reservoir. Three Landsat TM(Thematic Mapper) imagery data were processed to portray trophic state conditions. The remotely sensed data and the measured data were obtained on 20 June 1995. Regression models have been developed between the chlorophyll-a concentration and reflectance which was converted to Landsat TM digital data. The regression model was determined based on the correlation coefficient which was higher than 0.7 and was applied to the entire study area to generate a distribution map of chlorophyll-a and trophic state. The equation, providing estimates of chlorophyll-a concentration, represented the year-to-year spatial variation of trophic zones in the reservoir. Satellite remote sensing data derived from Landsat TM had been successfully used for trophic slate mapping in Daecheong reservoir.

The Korea Institute of Energy and Resources (KIER) has begun collecting horizental insolation data since May, 1982 at different locations. Because of a poor reliability of existing data, KIER's new data will be extensively used by the solar system users as well as by research institutes. But, the quality of the solar radiation data is not always good. This reports on an attempt to identify systematic error in such data using clear-day analysis for data rehabilitation.

This study presents an analysis of healthcare quality indicators using data mining for developing quality improvement strategies. Specifically, important factors influencing the inpatient mortality were identified using a decision tree method for data mining based on 8,405 patients who were discharged from the study hospital during the period of December 1, 2000 and January 31, 2001. Important factors for the inpatient mortality were length of stay, disease classes, discharge departments, and age groups. The optimum range of target group in inpatient healthcare quality indicators were identified from the gains chart. In addition, a decision support system was developed to analyze and monitor trends of quality indicators using Visual Basic 6.0. Guidelines and tutorial for quality improvement activities were also included in the system. In the future, other quality indicators should be analyze to effectively support a hospital-wide continuous quality improvement (CQI) activity and the decision support system should be well integrated with the hospital OCS (Order Communication System) to support concurrent review.

최근 각광받고 있는 무선 데이터 통신 인프라는 유선에서의 한계점을 넘어 빠른 속도로 발전 하고 있다. 특히, 이를 이용한 u-Healthcare 서비스에 대한 이슈가 증가하고 있으며, 원활한 서비스 제공을 위해서는 무선 데이터망의 품질 보장에 대한 연구가 중요하다. 그러나 기존 연구는 유선망에 대한 종단간 품질관리만을 집중 수행하고 있기 때문에 무선망에 대한 품질관리 연구가 미비하다. 본 논문은 이에 대한 연구로 u-Healthcare 서비스를 제공받는 무선 데이터 망 사용자의 품질 보장 및 사용자 요구를 만족시키기 위한 방안인 무선 환경을 고려한 무선서비스 품질측정 기준을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 무선데이터 품질 측정 지표 및 기준을 선정하였고, 품질 측정 평가 방안을 서비스별로 제시하였으며, 각각의 서비스 별로 품질지표를 제시하였다.

Objectives: To investigate data agreement of cancer registries and medical records as well as the quality of care and assess their relationship in a 5-year period from 2006 to 2011. Methods: The present cross-sectional, descriptive-analytical study was conducted on 443 cases summarized through census and using a checklist. Data agreement of Nemazi hospital-based cancer registry and the breast cancer prevention center was analyzed according to their corresponding medical records through adjusted and unadjusted Kappa. The process of care quality was also computed and the relationship with data agreement was investigated through chi-square test. Results: Agreement of surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy data between Nemazi hospital-based cancer registry and medical records was 62.9%, 78.5%, and 81%, respectively, while the figures were 93.2%, 87.9%, and 90.8%, respectively, between breast cancer prevention center and medical records. Moreover, quality of mastectomy, lumpectomy, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy services assessed in Nemazi hospital-based cancer registry was 12.6%, 21.2%, 35.2%, and 15.1% different from the corresponding medical records. On the other hand, 7.4%, 1.4%, 22.5%, and 9.6% differences were observed between the quality of the above-mentioned services assessed in the breast cancer prevention center and the corresponding medical records. A significant relationship was found between data agreement and quality assessment. Conclusion: Although the results showed good data agreement, more agreement regarding the cancer stage data elements and the type of the received treatment is required to better assess cancer care quality. Therefore, more structured medical records and stronger cancer registry systems are recommended.

Rising healthcare cost is a global phenomenon that justifies governments' introduction of 'incentive regulation' plan for the improvement of hospital efficiency. A number of previous studies tried to evaluate the efficiency of healthcare organization by using Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA), a common efficiency benchmarking method. However, there is a concern that this kind of efficiency evaluation could induce "quantity-quality trade-off". Moreover, as quality aspect is especially important in terms of 'effectiveness' of health care, it should be considered in efficiency evaluation of healthcare organization. A number of different models were tried so far to incorporate quality aspect into DEA, however, none is universally recognized as a standard. Thus, in this study, previous quality-incorporating DEA models were categorized into 6 types according to the way of incorporating quality aspect, and strengths and limitations of each type were reviewed with a set of artificial data as an example. Based on this review, a new quality-incorporating efficiency evaluation model, named Quality-adjusted output DEA(QAO-DEA), was suggested. As an exploratory empirical analysis, technical efficiency of human resource were measured with different quality-incorporating DEA models, using 2004 data from National University Hospitals. In conclusion, Quality-adjusted output DEA(QAO-DEA) model seems to be one of the most desirable alternatives to incorporate quality aspect in efficiency evaluation of hospital, and deserves the consideration as a policy tool to induce simultaneous improvement of both efficiency and quality.
