As the networks connect the world, enterprises tend to move manufacturing activities into virtual spaces. Since different applications use different data terminology, it becomes a problem to interoperate, interchange, and manage electronic data among different systems. According to RTI, approximately one billion dollar has been being spent yearly for product data exchange and interoperability. As commercial CAD systems have brought in the concept of design feature for the sake of interoperability, terminologies of design feature need to be harmonized. In order to define design feature terminology for integration, knowledge about feature definitions of different CAD systems should be considered. STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product model data) have attempted to solve this problem, but it defines only syntactic data representation so that semantic data integration is unattainable. In this paper, we utilize the ontology concept to build a data model of design feature which can be a semantic standard of feature definitions of CAD systems. Using feature ontology, we implement an integrated virtual database and a simple system which searches and edits design features in a semantic way. This paper proposes a methodology for integrating modeling features of CAD systems.

A submarine good military weapon because of its confidentiality and intimidating power. Therefore, training warfighters how to maneuver submarine is very important. Because submarine is very expensive and has regional and temporal limitations, M&S(Modeling and Simulation) can be a good alternative. However, as the existing M&S systems of submarine generally use expensive commercial software and dedicated hardware, which cause the warfighters to take troubles to visit the secured places, and then to train themselves during limited time slots. Also, many M&S systems have only one-channel display system which reduces the sense of immersiveness. Another problem is that many heterogeneous simulators can hardly be used as an integrated system. To solve these problems, X3D, a platform-independent and open standard graphic file format, is used with the general-purpose PCs. To increase immersiveness, multi-channel display system and a motion chair are used. Finally, HLA/RTI is used to integrate individual components of the simulator. All of these are verified through experiments.

Parallel computing system components should be harmonized, and this harmonization is kept existent using synchronization time. Synchronization time affects the system in two ways. First, if we have too little synchronization time, some tasks face the problem of harmonization, as they need appropriate time to update and synchronize with the system. Second, if we allocate a large amount of time, stall system created. Random allocation of synchronization time for parallel systems slows down not only the booting time of the system but also the execution time of each application involved in the system. This paper presents a simulator used to test and allocate appropriate synchronization time for distributed and parallel heterogeneous systems. The simulator creates the parallel and heterogeneous system to be evaluated, and lets the user vary the synchronization time to optimize the booting time. NS3-cGEM5 simulator in this paper is formed by HLA-RTI federation integration of the two independent architecture and network simulators - NS3 and cGEM5. Therefore, nodes created on these simulators need synchronizations for harmonized system performance. We tested and allocated the appropriate synchronization time for our sample parallel system composed of one x86 server and three ARM clients.

Simulation Based Acquisition(SBA) which pursues to use M&S in manner of integrated collaboration is being applied in defense acquisition. To accomplish SBA efficiently, reusability, reconfiguration and scalability of M&S components are important factors. To avoid constraints caused by coupling of components, PBA is designed to add and configure components easily by enabling independent interface and interaction among the components and provides common development infrastructure also. And PBA framework is implemented to support the development of a simulator which uses the PBA. It is expected that deployment of PBA framework as common development infrastructure can raise efficiency of M&S works.

A datacenter is a high energy consuming facility whose cooling energy consumption rate is 10~20 times larger than general office buildings. The higher the temperature of supply air from a CRAC (computer room air-conditioner) is supplied, the more energy efficient cooling is possible because of improving the COP of a chiller and advanced range of outdoor air temperature available for the economizer cycles. However, because the temperature of cold air flowing into server computers varies depending on air mixing configurations in a computer room, the proper supply air temperature must be considered based on the investigation of air mixing and heat dissipation. By these, this study aims to understand the effects of variation of the supply air temperature on the air flow distributions, temperature distributions and rack cooling efficiencies. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) aided in conducting the investigation. As a result, the variation of the supply air temperature does not affect the air flow distributions. However, it mainly affects the temperature distribution. From the results of CFD simulations, Rack cooling indices (RCIHI and RCILO) were evaluated and showed the ideal state set at $19^{\circ}C$ of the supply air temperature.

Two years after implementation of the graphic health warning intervention in Vietnam, it is very important to evaluate the intervention's potential impact. The objective of this paper was to predict effects of graphic health warnings on cigarette packages, particularly in reducing cigarette demand and smoking-associated deaths in Vietnam. In this study, a discrete choice experiment (DCE) method was used to evaluate the potential impact of graphic tobacco health warnings on smoking demand. To predict the impact of GHWs on reducing premature deaths associated with smoking, we constructed different static models. We adapted the method developed by University of Toronto, Canada and found that GHWs had statistically significant impact on reducing cigarette demand (up to 10.1% through images of lung damage), resulting in an overall decrease of smoking prevalence in Vietnam. We also found that between 428,417- 646,098 premature deaths would be prevented as a result of the GHW intervention. The potential impact of the GHW labels on reducing premature smoking-associated deaths in Vietnam were shown to be stronger among lower socio-economic groups.

This paper presents classification of domestic fire detector using response time index. Response time is measured using fire detector distributed in Korea, and the response time index is estimated. Plunge test prescribed by FM is conducted to measure response time of fire detector. The detector used to test is fixed temperature type(thermistor and bimetal type) and rate of rise temperature type(thermistor and pneumatic type). The nominal operation temperature of fixed temperature type detector is $70^{\circ}C$ and rate of rise temperature is $15^{\circ}C/min$. The fixed temperature type is measured 7 products, and the rate of rise temperature type is measured 5 products. The results show that in case of fixed temperature type(thermistor) is classified "Quick" or "Standard" and fixed temperature type(bimetal) is not classified. The rate of rise temperature type(thermistor) is classified "Fast" or "Ultra Fast" and the rate of rise temperature type(pneumatic) is classified "Very Fast" or "Ultra Fast". The pneumatic type shows more fast response than thermistor type. Also these results indicate the fixed temperature type(bimetal) is not suitable for early stage fire detection.

OMG(Object Management Group)의 데이터 분배 서비스(DDS: Data Distribution Service)는 발간(publish)/구독(subscribe) 모델에 기반하여 동일한 타입의 데이터를 실시간으로 주고 받는 데이터 중심의 분산 환경에서 많이 사용되는 통신 미들웨어 기술이다. 하지만 DDS는 실시간으로 발생하는 데이터에 대하여 일회성인 특징을 갖기 때문에 추후 데이터에 대한 분석, 검증 등을 위해 영속성을 제공할 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 이러한 추세를 반영하듯 RTI DDS, PrismTech Opensplice 등의 대표적인 DDS 시스템에서는 데이터베이스를 연동하기 위한 연구를 진행하고 있다. 실시간 통신 미들웨어인 DDS와 데이터베이스의 연동은 DBMS 애플리케이션이 일반적으로 데이터베이스를 사용하는 것뿐만 아니라 DDS의 시맨틱을 알지 못하더라도 데이터 중심의 발간/구독 모델을 유기적으로 활용할 수 있는 장점을 지닌다. 본 논문에서는 이를 위해 DDS 시스템인 DB-ReTiCom의 데이터베이스를 사용하기 위한 커넥티비티를 제안하고 사용자 친화적 인터페이스를 위한 변환 방법을 제시한다.

최근 전투체계는 동시에 다수의 장비들 사이에 실시간으로 데이터를 전달해야 하는데, 이러한 특성을 만족하는 통신 미들웨어로서 OMG (Object Management Group)에서 정의한 데이터 분배 서비스 (DDS ; Data Distribution Service)가 적합하다. 이를 구현한 DDS 시스템에는 RTI의 NDDS, PrismTech의 OpenSplice, 충남대학교의 ReTicom 등이 있다. 이 중 NDDS와 OpenSplice는 데이터의 영속성을 지원하지만 ReTicom에서는 영속성을 아직 지원하지 못한다. 이를 해결함과 동시에 실시간성을 보장하기 위해서 ReTicom은 메인 메모리 기반의 객체 관계형 데이터베이스를 사용하여 구현중이다. 이를 위해서는 DDS의 객체 모델 데이터를 정의하는 IDL과 객체 관계형 데이터베이스의 데이터 타입 및 구조 등이 동일하지 않기 때문에 IDL과 객체 관계형 데이터베이스간의 데이터 타입 및 구조를 변환하는 메타 모델 변환 방법이 제공되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 메타 모델 변환 방법을 해결하고자 IDL을 구조파악이 쉬운 XML 스키마로 변환 후 이를 객체 관계형 데이터베이스의 데이터 타입 및 구조 형태로 변환 해주는 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, we discuss the current status of ROK-US wargame model interoperability and propose the future federation architecture. ROK and US Armed Forces have made an effort to make their wargame model interoperable to fulfill operational requirements since 1999. Currently, they have achieved some degree of their final goals even though there is long way to go. ROK Armed Forces is now considering future federation architecture. We propose the future federation architecture of ROK-US wargame model interoperability considering technical advantages and system availability. It will be the next federation architecture led by ROK side for the ROK Armed Forces joint exercise and ROK-US combined exercise.
