Around 2002, the United States Coast Guard (USCG) identified a need to re-capitalize their Reference Station (RS) and Integrity Monitor (IM) equipment used in the Nationwide Differential Global Position System (NDGPS). Commercially available off-the-shelf differential RS and IM equipment lacked the open architecture required to support long-term goals that include future system improvements such as use of new civil frequencies on L2 and L5 and realization of a higher rate NDGPS beacon data channel intended to support RTK. The first step in preparing for this future NDGPS was to port current RTCM SC-104 compatible RS and IM functionality onto an open architecture PC-based platform. Trimble's product Charisma is a PC-based RS and IM software designed to meet these USCG goals. In fact USCG engineers provided key designs and design insights throughout the development. We cannot overstate the contribution of the USCG engineers. Fundamental requirements for this effort were that it be sufficiently flexible in hardware and software design to support fluid growth and exploitation of new signals and technologies as they become available, yet remain backward compatible with legacy user receivers and existing site hardware and system architecture. These fundamental goals placed an implicit adaptability requirement on the design of the replacement RS and IM. Additionally, project engineers were to remain focused on sustaining the high level of differential GPS service that 1.5 million legacy users have come to depend on. This paper will present new hardware and software (i.e., Trimble's Charisma software) architecture for the next generation NDGPS RS and IM. This innovative approach to engineering on an open architecture PC-based platform allows the system to continue to fulfill legacy NDGPS system requirements and allows the USCG and others to pursue a scalable hardware re-capitalization strategy. We will use the USCG's recapitalization project to explain the essential role of the Charisma software.

The design of safety computer system is described along with the case of software design and testing in the Core Protection Calculator System (CPCS). The application of computer system in safety system requires not only hardware qualification but thorough testing on software to verify its correctness and completeness. The testing on software for CPCS is performed by comparing the outputs of two versions of code. One is implemented in assembly language and the other is in Fortran. The testing is performed in sequencial and overlapping manner. Phase I test verifies that each software module is implemented correctly by executing every branch. Phase II test verifies that the integrated software is complete, meeting its requirements specification and also the integrated system meet its requirement and timing constraints. Through these testing, the Yonggwang Nuclear Power Plant Units (YGN) 3 and 4 CPCS software is verified to be correct and complete, and the integrated system is designed as in its requirements specification.

The purpose of this study is to propose the role of future designers and capabilities to be developed in the age of A.I. Active and preliminary designers should prepare themselves to develop necessary capabilities. As a method of study, we investigated the meaning of design and the changing role of designers from the past to present. Additional research was conducted on generative design, design processes, and A.I based design software. Finally, based on the analysis, we proposed the role of future designers and their capabilities in the age of A.I. In conclusion, the role of future designer should lead social innovation through creativity by coworking with artificial intelligence based on understanding and empathy for users. Based on this research, designers are expected to develop unique humanities skills such as empathy and creativity and work with AI in response to $4^{th}$ industrial revolution.

Software architecture are High-level design decisions shaping a software system's components, structure, and interactions. It can be a blueprint for development, evolution, and ongoing maintenance. This research investigates the communication practices employed by software architects and developers to ensure adherence to the designed software architecture. It explores the factors influencing the selection of follow-up methods and the impact of follow-up frequency on successful implementation. Findings reveal that formalized follow-up procedures are not yet a ubiquitous element within the software development lifecycle. While electronic communication, particularly email, appears to be the preferred method for both architects and developers, physical and online meetings are utilized less frequently. Interestingly, the study suggests a potential confidence gap, with architects expressing concerns about developers' ability to faithfully implement the architecture. This may lead to architects providing additional clarification. Conversely, while most developers reported confidence in their software knowledge, overly detailed architecture documentation may pose challenges, highlighting the need for architects to consider alternative communication strategies. A key limitation of this study is the sample size, restricting the generalizability of the conclusions. However, the research offers valuable preliminary insights into the communication practices employed for architecture implementation, paving the way for further investigation with a larger and more diverse participant pool.

Design optimization is a mathematical process to find an optimal solution through the use of formal optimization algorithms. Design plays a vital role in the engineering field; therefore, using design tools in education and research is becoming more and more important. Recently, numerical design optimization in fluid mechanics, which uses computational fluid dynamics (CFD), has numerous applications in the engineering field, because of the rapid development of high-performance computing resources. However, it is difficult to find design optimization software and contents for educational purposes in aerospace engineering. In the present study, we have developed an aerodynamic design framework specifically for an airfoil, based on the EDucation-research Integration through Simulation On the Net (EDISON) portal. The airfoil design framework is composed of three subparts: a geometry kernel, CFD flow analysis, and an optimization algorithm. Through a seamless interface among the subparts, an iterative design process is conducted. In addition, the CFD flow analysis and the design framework are provided through a web-based portal system, while the computation is taken care of by a supercomputing facility. In addition to the software development, educational contents are developed for lectures associated with design optimization in aerospace and mechanical engineering education programs. The software and content developed in this study is expected to be used as a tool for e-learning material, for education and research in universities.

Since software development team members have been more geographically spread due to the globalization of business and Internet technologies, the management of deliverables and communication efforts for developing high-quality software products on time is becoming more complicated. Among the functional requirements for collaborative software development management, the manipulation of shared information objects is essential for the collaborative work among distributed development team members. This paper proposes an integrated information object management framework comprised of a so-called BOC (Bill Of Class) scheme and a standardized software part dictionary for managing shared information objects efficiently among distributed co-workers. In order to manage these complex information objects, the proposed framework adopt product structures represented by Bills Of Materials (BOM) as stems for integrating the various information objects. Based on the proposed framework, a collaborative software development management system (CSDMS) is implemented, and the functionalities and the structure of the system are also described in this paper. The proposed system provides sufficient functionalities for the change management of information objects and the management of their relationship to other objects rather than existing system.

Auditing plays a very important role in the process of developing and managing good quality software. The software developing proces should be audited precisely especially in the test phase. Up to the present, because auditing has depended on the auditor's experience of developing and auditing software, it has been impossible to audit objectively. It is limited to audit systematically and objectively because auditing process isn't systematized. In this paper, the auditing model to solve several problems in present auditing is suggested, a test phase audit system is developed, and the system is applied to the actual auditing process. Consequently, software administrators can establish effective software management, software developers can be supported by a highly reliable and quality software development tool, and auditors can be offered an objective audit standard.

One of the main concerns of railway system is to secure safety. Nowadays digital technology has been rapidly applied to safety critical system. The digital system performs more varying and highly complex functions efficiently compared to the existing analog system because software can be flexibly designed and implemented. The flexible design makes it difficult to predict the software failures. For this reason, the safety criteria are suggested to secure the software safety for the field of railway system. Following them, the railway software have to be examined whether it is properly developed according to the safety criteria and certification process. Because the articles suggested in safety criteria are written in legal term, it is difficult to apply the criteria to develop railway software. This paper suggests and discusses a development and assessment procedure to solve these issues for railway software with more detail description.
