  • Workflow is the automation of a business process, in whole or part, during which documents, information or tasks are passed from one participant to another for action, according to a set of procedural rules. The software selection problem is made difficult by the multiplicity of competing products and the lack of expertise and experience of users in the methods of software evaluation. Although the selection process for workflow is similar to that proposed for the acquisition of any software packages, differences arise in their evaluation criteria and choice methods. In this paper, we suggest the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) method for selecting workflow software. The AHP is an intuitively easy method for formulating and analyzing decisions. It was developed to solve a specific class of problems that involves prioritization of potential alternate solutions. We showed how to evaluate 9 commercial workflow products by deciding the relative importance of the main criteria in the AHP model. We utilized the evaluation data for criteria ready suggested by specialist groups. Our methodology will be helpful to those who are going to adopt a best workflow product in their organizations. Although the criteria and their evaluation scores regarding workflow products are suggested, it is not easy to apply them to a real case and get solutions without a model.

  • Test cases in the existing weapon system software were created manually by the tester analyzing the test items defined in the software integration test procedure. However, existing test case generation method has two limitations. First, the quality of test cases can vary depending on the tester's ability to analyze the test items. Second, excessive time and cost may be incurred in writing test cases. This paper proposes a method to automatically generate test cases based on the requirements model and specifications to overcome the limitations of the existing weapon system software test case generation. Generate test sequences and test data based on the use case event model, a model representing the requirements of the weapon system software, and the use case specification specifying the requirements. The proposed method was applied to 8 target models constituting the avionics control system, producing 30 test sequences and 8 test data.

  • This study deals with an on-line software fault detection, localization, and system reconfiguration method for electrical system drives composed of three-phase AC/DC/AC converters and three-phase permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) drives. Current sensor failure (outage), speed/position sensor loss (disconnection), and damaged DC-link voltage sensor are considered faults. The occurrence of these faults in PMSM drive systems degrades system performance and affects the safety, maintenance, and service continuity of the electrical system drives. The proposed method is based on the monitoring signals of "abc" currents, DC-link voltage, and rotor speed/position using a measurement chain. The listed signals are analyzed and evaluated with the generated residuals and threshold values obtained from a Sliding Mode Current-Speed-DC-link Voltage Observer (SMCSVO) to acquire an on-line fault decision. The novelty of the method is the faults diagnosis algorithm that combines the use of SMCSVO and adaptive thresholds; thus, the number of false alarms is reduced, and the reliability and robustness of the fault detection system are guaranteed. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm's performance is experimentally analyzed and tested in real time using a dSPACE DS 1104 digital signal processor board.

  • As unit testing should be performed repeatedly and continuously, it is a high-cost software development activity. Although there are many studies on unit test automation, there are less studies on automated test case generation which are worthy of note. In this paper, we discuss a study on automated test data generation from source codes and indicate algorithms for each stage. We also show some issues of test data generation and introduce an automated test data generating tool: CUTIG. As CUTIG generates test data not from require specifications but from source codes, software developers could generate test data when specifications are insufficient or discord with real implementation. Moreover we hope that the tool could help software developers to reduce cost for test data preparation.

  • Much of the process in Social Science Research can be expedited with use of an automation systems that can lead to research efficiency and dramatic improvement of the research process. This study proposes use of a social science research automation system based on the cloud, which generates questionnaires, supports data collection, and intuitively processes statistical analyses of the data collected. The Cloud-based Social Science Research Automation System is developed with GNU/GPL-based open source software. We also integrate R for statistical computing to enable advanced statistical analyses such as PLS structural equation modeling, mediate effect analysis, compare between groups, and complete general statistics. The Cloud-based Social Science Research Automation system developed in this study is expected to play an important role in improving the social science research process and in performing the social science studies efficiently.
