Objective: This paper targets a framework of a hand gesture based interface design. Background: While a modeling of contact-based interfaces has focused on users' ergonomic interface designs and real-time technologies, an implementation of a contactless interface needs error-free classifications as an essential prior condition. These trends made many research studies concentrate on the designs of feature vectors, learning models and their tests. Even though there have been remarkable advances in this field, the ignorance of ergonomics and users' cognitions result in several problems including a user's uneasy behaviors. Method: In order to incorporate compatibilities considering users' comfortable behaviors and device's classification abilities simultaneously, classification-oriented gestures are extracted using the suggested human-hand model and closed-loop classification procedures. Out of the extracted gestures, the compatibility-oriented gestures are acquired though human's ergonomic and cognitive experiments. Then, the obtained hand gestures are converted into a series of hand behaviors - Handycon - which is mapped into several functions in a mobile device. Results: This Handycon model guarantees users' easy behavior and helps fast understandings as well as the high classification rate. Conclusion and Application: The suggested framework contributes to develop a hand gesture-based contactless interface model considering compatibilities between human and device. The suggested procedures can be applied effectively into other contactless interface designs.

A Web-based pile load test (WBPLT) system was developed and implemented in this study. Object-oriented and concept-based software design techniques were adopted to integrate the pile load test database into the system. A total of 673 case histories of pile load test were included in the database. The data consisted of drilled shaft and driven precast concrete pile axial load tests in drained, undrained, and gravel loading conditions as well as pre-analyzed data and back-calculated design parameters. Unified modeling language, a standard software design tool, was utilized to design the WBPLT system architecture with five major concept-based components. These components provide the static structure and dynamic behavior of system message flows in a visualized manner. The open-source Apache Web server is the building block of the WBPLT system, and PHP Web programming language implements the operation of the WBPLT components, particularly the automatic translation of user query into structured query language. A simple search and inexpensive query can be implemented through the Internet browser. The pile load test database is helpful, and data can be easily retrieved and utilized worldwide for research and advanced applications.

LBS(Location-Based Service) is one of the smartphone application services which has been receiving great attention recently. Various applications of smartphone use LBS to provide innovative services. However, use of LBS raises privacy concerns because the location information of users is constantly exposed. Privacy calculus perspective attempts to understand the characteristics of the user's privacy. It is based on the risk-benefit analysis in the economics' perspective. That is, when the benefit expected through personal information disclosure is higher than risk, we are willing to provide personal information. This research suggested a research model based on the privacy calculus perspective to clarify the effect of information disclosure intention of smartphone LBS application users. Based on the main factors of privacy calculus, perception of privacy risk and privacy benefit, the relationship of the perceived value and the information disclosure intention was empirically analyzed by utilizing structural equation modeling(SEM) methodology. According to the results of the empirical analysis, it was found that all relations have statistically significant explanatory power except the relation between privacy concern and information disclosure intention. This study showed a strong evidence of antecedent factors based on privacy calculus of personal information disclosure in smartphone LBS applications.

The purpose of this study is to understand how the factors related to quality in child care services effect decision making of parents to use such services again, using the parameter of parental satisfaction as a measure. In order to support the researcher's hypothesis, data was gathered from 566 households who send their children to one of the child care facilities in Goyang-Shi, Gyeonggi-Do. The collected data was then analyzed by means of structural equation modeling. The results of the analysis showed that the higher the level of assurance, service tangibility and empathy were, the more the parents were satisfied with the service. The more they were satisfied, the possibility of using the service again increased relatively. In conclusion, various political and practical implications were also addressed and discussed on the basis of these results, with the aim to improve the factors of quality in child care services and parental satisfaction.

Many construction projects involve a plethora of safety-related problems that can cause loss of productivity, diminished revenue, time overruns, and legal challenges. Incorporating data collection and analytics methods can help overcome the root causes of many such problems. However, in a dynamic construction workplace collecting data from a large number of resources is not a trivial task and can be costly, while many contractors lack the motivation to incorporate technology in their activities. In this research, an Android-based mobile application, Preemptive Construction Site Safety (PCS2) is developed and tested for real-time location tracking, trajectory prediction, and prevention of potential collisions between workers and site hazards. PCS2 uses ubiquitous mobile technology (smartphones) for positional data collection, and a robust trajectory prediction technique that couples hidden Markov model (HMM) with risk-taking behavior modeling. The effectiveness of PCS2 is evaluated in field experiments where impending collisions are predicted and safety alerts are generated with enough lead time for the user. With further improvement in interface design and underlying mathematical models, PCS2 will have practical benefits in large scale multi-agent construction worksites by significantly reducing the likelihood of proximity-related accidents between workers and equipment.

For electricity markets to function in a truly competitive and efficient manner, it is not enough to focus solely on improving the efficiencies of power supply. To recognize price-responsive load as a reliability resource, the customer must be provided with price signals and an instrument to respond to these signals, preferably automatically. This paper attempts to develop the Windows-based load management system in competitive electricity markets, allowing the user to monitor the current energy consumption or billing information, to analyze the historical data, and to implement the consumption strategy for cost savings with nine possible scenarios adopted. Finally, this modeling framework will serve as a template containing the basic concepts that any load management system should address.

Manufacturing companies are implementing a so-called customer-centered supply chain management to have a competitive advantage. In these efforts, collaboration not only within a company but also with suppliers, partners and customers is emphasized. The fast delivery, reducing the total lead-time from development to delivery, is pursued more than ever, though the quality and cost are still importantly regarded. Die manufacturing companies are not exception from these trends, because a die is a necessary tool for almost manufacturing industries. The planning and scheduling system plays an important role in supply chain management. In this study, we address a scheduling problem of a die manufacturing company. The problem is very complex due to many reasons including the uncertainty in environment and the complexity of constraints. Considering the importance of due-date satisfaction and human planners' roles, we designed the solution algorithm and the user interface respectively. In the implementation phase, modeling constructs and basic solution algorithms of ILOG solver and ILOG scheduler are used. In the paper, the problem and the algorithm are described with ILOG constructs, and the experience of use is also addressed.

이질적인 생물 데이터베이스의 통합은 데이터간의 연계 분석의 필요성이 높아짐에 따라 중요한 문제로 대두되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 데이터베이스들은 초기에 이질적 환경에서 각기 다른 목적에 의해 생성되므로 포맷, 설계자가 불일치하는 등 여러 가지 문제점으로 인해 통합하는데 어려움이 따른다. 그러므로 이질적인 데이터베이스의 통합을 위해서는 초기단계의 설계가 무엇보다도 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 대표적인 핵산 데이터베이스인 Genbank와 단백질 데이터베이스인 Swiss-Prot을 통합하기 위해 ER 모델을 사용하여 개념적 모델을 보인 후, 이를 합병하여 통합모델을 제시한다. 또한, 핵산-단백질 자료로 연계되는 정보를 통합 서비스할 수 있는 시스템 구조를 제안한다. 제안된 바이오 게이트웨이 시스템은 개념적 설계 단계에서 가장 원자적인 단위로 분할하여 모델링 함으로써 정교한 질의 처리가 가능하고, 사용자가 상세 조건을 알고 있을 경우에 기존의 검색시스템과 달리 여러 번의 검색 과정을 거치지 않고, 단시간에 원하는 결과를 얻을 수 있다는 장점을 지닌다.
