System Entity Structure/Model Base (SES/MB) enhances organizing model families and storing and reusing model components in the multifaceted system modeling. However, the real world can be described not only an individual system but also a collection of those systems, which is called system of systems (SoS). Because SES/MB has a limitation to simulate the SoS using HLA/RTI, an extended framework is required to simulate it. Therefore, this paper proposes System of Systems Entity Structure/Federate Base (SoSES/FB) for simulation in a distributed environment (HLA/RTI). The proposed method provides the library of federates (FB) and System of System Entity Structure (SoSES) formalism, which represents structural knowledge of a collection of simulators. It also provides a methodology for the development process of distributed simulation. The paper introduces the anti-missile defense simulation using the proposed SoSES/FB.

In this study, an intermediate model is presented as a new method for development of a parametric simulation program. This model enables us to analyze effectively the static and dynamic structure of a real production system. The static structure of the real system can be modelled in an entity-relationship diagram and the dynamic structure of the real system in a Petri net. The intermediate model consists of an entity-relationship diagram and a Petri net. Using this intermediate model man can not only reduce the time and cost for simulation program development, but also increase the modelling reliability of the developed simulation program. To show the usefulness of this intermediate model. the intermediate models for two production subsystems, manufacturing sub-system and transport subsystem, are set up.

To support the procedure for determining an optimal liquefaction cycle for FLNG FEED, an ontological modeling method which can automatically generate various alternative liquefaction cycles were carried out in this paper. General rules in combining equipment are extracted from existing onshore liquefaction cycles like C3MR and DMR cycle. A generic relational model which represents whole relations of the plant elements has all these rules, and it is expressed by using the system entity structure (SES), an ontological framework that hierarchically represents the elements of a system and their relationships. By using a process called pruning which reduces the SES to a candidate, various alternative relational models of the liquefaction cycles can be automatically generated. These alternatives were provided by XML-based formats, and they can be used for choosing an optimal liquefaction cycle on the basis of the assessments such as process simulation and reliability analysis.

VHDL has been. widely used in modeling and simulation of hardware designs. However, complex relationship between components of the designs makes the VHDL modeling problem very difficult. Furthermore, after the initial creation of VHDL models, they evolve into many versions over their lifetime. To cope with such difficulties, this paper proposes a new methodology for the management of VHDL models supporting versions. Its conceptual bases are system entity structure and relational database. Within the methodology, a family of hierarchical structures of a design is organized in the form of VHDL model structure. It is, in turn, represented in the form of relational tables. Once the model structure is built in such a way, a specific simulation model which meets design objective is pruned from the model structure. The details of VHDL codes are systematically synthesized by combining it with the primitive models in a model base. These algorithms are also defined in terms of relational algebraic operations.

Data modeling is a process of developing a model to design and develop a data system that supports an organization's various business processes. A conceptual data model represents a technology-independent specification of structure of data to be stored within a database. The model aims to provide richer expressiveness and incorporate a set of semantics to (a) support the design, control, and integrity parts of the data stored in data management structures and (b) coordinate the viewing of connections and ideas on a database. The described structure of the data is often represented in an entity–relationship (ER) model, which was one of the first data-modeling techniques and is likely to continue to be a popular way of characterizing entity classes, attributes, and relationships. This paper attempts to examine the basic ER modeling notions in order to analyze the concepts to which they refer as well as ways to represent them. In such a mission, we apply a new modeling methodology (thinging machine; TM) to ER in terms of its fundamental building constructs, representation entities, relationships, and attributes. The goal of this venture is to further the understanding of data models and enrich their semantics. Three specific contributions to modeling in this context are incorporated: (a) using the TM model's five generic actions to inject processing in the ER structure; (b) relating the single ontological element of TM modeling (i.e., a thing/machine or thimac) to ER entities and relationships; and (c) proposing a high-level integrated, extended ER model that includes structural and time-oriented notions (e.g., events or behavior).

This paper proposes a convolution tree kernel-based approach for relation extraction where the parse tree is expanded with entity features such as entity type, subtype, and mention level etc. Our study indicates that not only can our method effectively capture both syntactic structure and entity information of relation instances, but also can avoid the difficulty with tuning the parameters in composite kernels. We also demonstrate that predicate verb information can be used to further improve the performance, though its enhancement is limited. Evaluation on the ACE2004 benchmark corpus shows that our system slightly outperforms both the previous best-reported feature-based and kernel-based systems.

Fisheries cooperative requires dual characteristics in performing its original function. Economic characteristic as an business enterprise and democratic characteristic as cooperative entity need to complete its objectives and survive in the complex rapidly-changing environment. After IMF crisis, fisheries cooperative received enormous government's financial support and credit-business department is perfectly under government's control. Regional fisheries cooperative also faces business failure, therefore pure cooperative movement can't save the fisheries cooperative. Economic characteristic as an business enterprise is more emphasized than democratic characteristic as cooperative entity in recent years. The theory of corporate ownership and governance can be applied to explain the ownership and governance of fisheries cooperative because fisheries cooperative is now similar to an business enterprise. During the IMF crisis the board, the auditors and the minority shareholders in business enterprise were revealed to be powerless against the mighty influence of controlling shareholders. Unconstrained discretion exercised by those controlling shareholders not only led to the firms'insolvency, but also brought down the country's financial system. During the past few years, Korea has experienced many institutional changes regarding its corporate governance structure. The introduction of outside directors, the strengthening of minority shareholders' rights, and enhanced accounting transparency are achieved to improve the efficiency of economic system. Investors, including institutional and individual, also seem to be more aware of governance issues now. Credit-business department of fisheries cooperative is recommended to introduce the institutions same as the case of the corporate governance structure. Fisheries cooperative except economic and credit-business department requires other prescriptions because it is emphasized as democratic cooperative entity. But we should be careful to interpret the ownership and governance structure because they are products of nations, eras and organizations.

An agent-based simulation is a popular simulation tool to solve various problems, such as stock market, population prediction, disease prediction, and development of a traffic system. As the agents are developed and researched in different application fields, the agent has a rigid structure and may not acceptable in different domains. As a result, it is a challenging problem to define a structure for an agent structure to reflect the researcher's simulation objective. This research proposes an extendable form for an agent and its modeling environment. In order to propose a standard structure, this study adopts system entity structure and discrete event system specification formalism. Also, this research introduces the SESManager which supports the proposed specification method. The proposed environment can hierarchically define the agent structure and synthesize the agent so that it can perform the agent simulation according to the user's simulation purpose.

Numerous proposals for extending the relational data model as well as conceptual and object-oriented data models have been suggested. However, there has been relatively less research in the area of defining segmented storage structure and data migration strategies for temporal data. This paper presents the segmented storage structure in order to increment search performance and the two data migration strategies for segmented storage structure. this paper presents the two data migration strategies : the migration strategy by Time granularity, the migration strategy by LST-GET. In the migration strategy by Time Granularity, the dividing time point to assign the entity versions to the past segment, the current segment, and future segment is defined and the searching and moving process for data validity at a granularity level are described. In the migration strategy by LST-GET, we describe the process how to compute the value of dividing criterion. searching and moving processes are described for migration on the future segment and the current segment and entity versions 새 assign on each segment are defined. We simulate the search performance of the segmented storage structure in order to compare it with conventional storage structure in relational database system. And extensive simulation studies are performed in order to compare the search performance of the migration strategies with the segmented storage structure.

Discrete event modeling is finding ever more application to anlysis and design of complex manufacturing, communication, computer systems, etc. This paper shows how packet network systems may be advantageously represented as DEVS (Discrete Event System Specification) models by employing System Entity structure / Model base (SES/MB) framework developed by Zeigler. DEVS models and network structure representations support a strong basis for performance analysis of packet network systems. This approach is illustated in a typical packet network example with several routing strategies.
