Organization change projects such as Business Process Redesign(BPR) have been implemented by many firms for enhancing their organizational performance. However, management is reluctant to initiate these projects due to enterprise-wide impact and steeper project cost than the traditional system development projects. Thus, there emerges a need to accurately assess the value of the redesigned organizational process for the successful implementation of BPR projects. The purpose of this study is to assess the value of process redesign in the point of resource utilization and allocation, and cycle time and cost reduction. The candidate process and the design alternatives are identified from organizational requirements analysis. The variables and their relations are defined to perform task activity analysis, bottleneck analysis, cycle cost analysis, and resource utilization analysis. A Case study of a manufacturing company indicates that the assessments method proposed in this study is a promising approach to identify the business alternative process that lead to the highest organizational performance.

In this study, a design process of robotic cell is presented. This paper focuses only on the automation of workpiece handling with robot. The presented design process enables us to analyze effectiv ely the original production system and to redesign it as an optimum production system with robots. An original production system is analyzed with respect to its economical and technological requirements for automation. If automation of the given production system is feasible, the conceptual design for automation is firstly derived. Next, the detail design is derived for the optimum conceptual design. Finally, an optimum system solution is determined after the economical and technical evaluation of all the derived detail designs. The all specifications of each element of the redesigned production system and its layout are determined at the detail design phase. This paper shows a low cost supporting tool for layout design of robotic cell with SCARA type robots.

This paper suggests a high-speed control method which is suitable for multi-joint robots using a real-time stand-alone controller for general-purpose. The fast processing controller consists of a PCI Interface Board and 2-axe PWM drivers. The PCI Interface Board consists of 32-channel PWM output ports, 32-channel Encoder Counters, 32-channel A/D Converters and 48-channel Digital I/O ports, and all the I/O data transmissions are completed within 1ms. And The 2-axe PWM driver can be redesigned easily in order to embed in each link. Experimental implementations show that the high-speed control method can be used for the real-time control which is essential to controlling of multi-body robots such as humanoid robots. Especially, it is efficient for realizing the model-based motion control in demand of much calculation time by the high I/O communication speed.

The purpose of this paper is to reduce the level of idling vibration on a steering wheel. In some cases, vibration on steering wheel is amplified due to the resonance between the first natural frequency of T-beam and engine idling speed. Using SDM(structural dynamic modification) technique, T-beam is redesigned to reduce its vibration. This paper used FRF(frequency response function) synthesis technique which is entirely dependent on experiment. But this method requires lots of test efforts to enhance its reliability of design. While combining this method with an analytic method. the experimental burden, the major drawback of FRP synthesis method, can be considerably relieved. Using ana1ytic sensitivity analysis, some effective modification regions are preliminarily chosen as candidate Positions where SDM can be applied to modify T-beam\`s dynamic characteristics.

A side mirror is an important safety tool with which the driver can observe objects out of sight. This paper presents an organized design technology for the side mirror of improved vibration characteristics. Resonance response to forced vibration is critical to observability through the mirror to be designed. This study aims at the reduction of vibration level by the modification of mirror structures and consequent effects are predicted by computer simulations. We used a three-dimensional solid modeling and the modal and frequency analysis ; Pro/Engineer is used as a solid modeler; Pro/Mechanica for vibration analysis. The simulation results are compared with those obtained in experiemnts to check the validity by the three-dimensional modeling. The design technique of side mirror has been established and found to be effective in vibration analysis of redesigned parts.

In this paper, the transmitted noise reduction of smart panels of which passive piezoelectric shunt damping is used, is experimentally studied. Shunt damping experiments are based on the measured electrical impedance model. A passive shunt circuit composed of inductors, and a load resistor is devised to dissipate the maximum energy into the joule heat energy. For multi-mode shunt damping, the shunt circuit is redesigned by adding a blocking circuit. Also the optimal location of the piezoelectric patch is studied by FEM in order to cause the maximum admittance from the patch for each mode of aluminum plate. In results, the transmitted sound pressure level of panels is efficiently reduced for multi-modes

This study is to analyze the performance for ADS-B(Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast) operations by the Balanced Scorecard(BSC). It is also to collect the opinions of users(pilots, air traffic controllers and ground operators) relating ADS-B and to use the results as data about preparing political measures of aviation safety. For these purpose, BSC model redesigned on 4 different points of view is used for measuring the performance of the ADS-B operation. The proposed perspectives are affairs effectiveness, user orientation, system orientation and the capacity. As the results of this study, it is showed that the continuous development of ADS-B should be required and the users must be involved in the activities, additionally, the relevant authorities should try to be drawn the user-oriented results through the process.

The major challenge of designing public halls or performing arts centers in Japan is meeting the expectations of the regional community; greater stakeholder involvement is required in order to solve this problem. The purpose of this paper is to examine whether stakeholders can become more involved in public hall design by using systems engineering (SE), which has never before been applied when designing public halls. As such, this study redesigned an actual public hall (Iwaki Alios) using an SE approach. The results revealed that applying SE was effective in the creation of a public hall concept.

There are no objective standards for selection and improvement of SLA evaluation metrics for IT service. In this study, we analyze the current IT maturity models for selection and improvement of the metrics and then we derive them according to the maturity levels and propose the redesigned maturity model. To verify whether the model is applicable, we execute a case study based on the D company. We apply the proposed evaluation metrics of the maturity models to the D company and evaluate the metrics. We select a proper level of the D company and an improvement line after measuring evaluation metrics in the maturity level 2. We propose improvement guidelines of evaluation metrics which score is less than the improvement line's and derive SLA evaluation metrics. By using the SLA evaluation metrics for a year, we prove that the way of selection and improvement is useful.
