Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) researchers have identified Augmented Reality (AR) as a new technology that can assist inspections. Post-seismic structural inspections are conducted to evaluate the safety level of the damaged structures. Quantification of nearby structural changes over short-term and long-term periods can provide building inspectors with information to improve their safety. This paper proposes a Time Machine Measure (TMM) application based on an Augmented Reality (AR) Head-Mounted-Device (HMD) platform. The primary function of TMM is to restore the saved meshes of a past environment and overlay them onto the real environment so that inspectors can intuitively measure dynamic structural deformation and other environmental movements. The proposed TMM application was verified by demo experiments simulating a real inspection environment.

소프트웨어 제품의 신뢰성과 안정성 확보를 위한 품질 보증이 중요해짐에 따라 독립된 테스트 조직이 증가되고 이러한 테스트 조직은 효과적 효율적으로 테스트 활동을 수행하기 위해 테스트 프로세스 개선을 필요로 한다. 그러나, 프로세스는 제품의 도메인 특성으로부터 많은 영향을 받아 특화되므로 실시간(Time to Market) 서비스가 강조되는 웹 서비스 시스템에서의 테스트 프로세스에 대한 연구가 부족하므로 테스트 조직 향상을 위한 방향 모델과 이를 이행할 수 있는 접근 방법을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 웹 서비스 제품의 품질을 보증하기 위해 검증 작업을 수행하고 있는 테스트 조직이 향상되기 위한 방안으로 TMM을 적용하였고, 성숙된 프로세스 구축을 위한 방법으로 GQM을 이용하여 메트릭을 도출한 사례를 제시하였다. 이런 연구결과는 도메인 특성에 맞게 도출된 매트릭을 통해 제품과 테스터의 능력을 평가하고 결과 값을 프로세스 개선에 반영하여 정량적인 데이터 기반으로 관리되는 테스트 조직으로 발전할 수 있을 것이다.

As the number of treatments in the therapeutic ultrasound field targeted at fat tissue increase, the performance of the equipment should be evaluated for safety using a fat phantom. In this study, a fat phantom was fabricated using olive oil and a tissue-mimicking material (TMM) phantom. To evaluate the acoustic properties of the TMM phantom according to the changes in the olive oil, the composition ratio of a liquid mixture of olive oil with a surfactant was adjusted from 5-20% in 5% steps. The acoustic properties of the phantom were evaluated using the sound velocity, attenuation coefficient, density, and acoustic impedance. The experimental results showed that the sound velocity decreased with increasing amount of olive oil but the other acoustic properties did not change. In addition, the phantom using an olive-oil mixture with a 15% composition ratio was most similar to the acoustic characteristics of fat tissue with a sound velocity of 1477.35 m/s, an attenuation coefficient of 0.514 dB/MHz-cm, a density of $1.07g/cm^3$, and an acoustic impedance of 1.575 MRayl. These experimental results are expected contribute to the accuracy of the results using a TMM phantom and will be useful for the therapeutic ultrasound field targeted at subcutaneous fat tissue.

This paper proposes the ITMS(Intelligent Transport Monitoring System) which manages the route and state of freight by using the Meteorological Office, the Transportation Management Center, GPS and Sensors, etc. The ITMS consists of the CIMS(Container Inner Monitoring System) transmitting the inner temperature and humidity of a container, the TMM(Transport Management Module) computing an estimated time of arrival with Freight Vehicle location information and transmits the result to the CIMS, the FMM(Freight Management Module) checking and managing the freight freshness by using the temperature and humidity of the collected containers, and the SMM(Stevedoring Management Module) selecting the container loading and unloading places with the information transmitted from the CIMS, the TMM, and the FMM and attaching the freight formation to containers using an RFID label. The ITMS not only checks the freight condition at intervals but also acquires and manages the freight information with RFID labels rapidly and accurately.

For the design of structural systems having the prescribed or optimum dynamic characteristics, some design changes of the initially designed system are required. In these cases, if the sensitivity analysis which can predict the changes of dynamic characteristics due to the changes of design variables is applied, the design changes can be carried out rationally and very efficiently. For many structural systems, it is well known that the analysis by the transfer matrix method(TMM) and the combined finite element-transfer matrix method(FETMM) is more efficient than the analysis by the finite element method. However, most known studies on the sensitivity analysis of structural systems premise using the finite element method. In this paper, the sensitivity analysis methods by the TMM and the FETMM are presented and some numerical investigations on the beam-column with elastically restrained ends and intermediate contraints and the stiffened plate having subsystems are carried out. The results of the numerical examples show good accuracy and computational efficiency of the presented methods, and show that the application of sensitivity analysis in the dynamic characteristic reanalysis give good results within the practically changeable range of design variables.

In real software business environment, there are required to validate software quality in diverse usage range of software for many small & medium companies. Software quality means both qualities of production and process. In our situation, we focus on better process quality of a test organization than a whole organization. But even the original test maturity model (TMM) does not enough to apply with our domestic venture/small & medium companies. To solve this problem, we suggest the simplified test maturity model for our companies. We redefine this simplified model with the original TMM and a test process improvement next (TPI next) model. The previous models just have provided each definition of maturity level, goal and activity per each level, which not exists an assessment guideline and a formal assessing procedure. Due to this reasons, an assessor is difficult to assess the test organization without them. this paper suggest an assessment guideline of the simplified TMM and also define the procedure which is included with activities and byproducts. With these assessment guideline, an assessor can work possible to formally assess test organizations of small & medium companies, and with self assessment guideline they can be correctly provision before assessment of their organizations.

The modulation bandwidth of a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) is limited by carrier lifetime. Therefore, it is hard to directly modulate an RSOA with high-speed electrical signals. We theorize that an optical filter can act as an optical equalizer, compensating for the narrow bandwidth limitation imposed by the RSOA. By modeling a time-varying RSOA with a modified transfer matrix method (TMM), we simulated 25 Gbps operation of an RSOA with optical filtering effects. We investigated the impact of detuning the center wavelength of the optical filter on the modulation of an RSOA. The numerical results show that it is possible to modulate an RSOA with an optical filtering effect at 25 Gbps without electronic equalization or digital signal processing.

This paper suggests a new analysis algorithm for the time historical response of three dimensional rectilinear structure which is frequently found in a pipe line system of plant by the combination of the transfer stiffness coefficient method(TSCM) and the Newmark method. The present analysis algorithm for a time historical response can improve the computational accuracy and time remarkably owing to advantages of the TSCM in comparison with transfer matrix method(TMM). The structural system is modeled as a lumped mass system in this method. The analysis algorithm was formulated far the three dimensional rectilinear structure. We confirmed the validity of the present algorithm by comparing the numerical computation results of TSCM with those of TMM.
