  • Checklist method is rapid and comprehensive to evaluate in practice. Check items are commonly rated by subjective utility function; i.e., evaluator's significant judgment. Since human judgment includes fuzziness (vagueness) inherently in spite of its significance, fuzzy set theory is useful in this case. The paper illustrates a evaluation method using fuzzy checklist where check items are rated as fuzzy numbers. Pairwise comparison data is used to determine the weights of check items, since it has comparative advantage for human's fuzzy judgment. Sample of BASIC program is provided for microcomputer. When uncertainty is due to subjectivity or imprecision of data, this method can be applied to practical problems widely.

  • 컴퓨팅 환경이 유리쿼터스 환경으로 변해가면서 다양한 컨텐츠와 다양한 디바이스들이 등장하게 되었고, 디지털 컨텐츠를 보호하기 위해 DRM(Digital Rights Management) 기술이 적용된 서비스가 제공되고 있다. 그러나 현재 DRM 기술의 디지털 컨텐츠 보안 정책은 일정한 키 길이에 동일한 암호 알고리즘을 사용함으로써 비효율적이고, 사용자의 다양한 요구를 만족시키지 못하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 디지털 컨텐츠에 보안 정책을 효율적으로 적용하고 디바이스의 성능과 디지털 컨텐츠의 가치에 따라 의사 결정 방법인 MAUT(Multi-Attribute Utility Theory) 알고리즘을 이용하여 최적의 보안 등급을 동적으로 결정하는 컨텐츠 암호화 모듈을 설계하고 구현한다.

  • This paper presents a motion planning algorithm for conveyor tracking. We formulate the problem as the linear quadratic tracking problem in optimal control theory and solve it through dynamic programming. In the proposed algorithm, the steady-state tracking error is eliminated completely, and the joint torque, velocity, acceleration, and jerks are considered as some constraints. Numerical examples are then presented to demonstrate the utility of the proposed motion planning algorithm.

  • In this paper, we suggest energy technologies for a plan of future energy technology innovation. In order to evaluate and analyze of the technologies, we consider various methods such as AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process), CVM (Contingent Valuation Method) and MAUT(Multi-Attribute Utility Theory). According to MAUT, we present between many attributes and priorities of innovation technologies.

  • We present a fair and efficient solution for selfish readers with the Nash bargaining solution (NBS) to mitigate the effects of RFID frequency interference. We compare the NBS with a solution derived by the max log-sum scheme that maximizes total utility and show that for selfish and rational readers, the NBS brings success in bargaining on resource allocation between readers unlike the max log-sum scheme, although the NBS has less total payoff compared to the max log-sum scheme.

  • The first aim of this study is to provide QC engineers with the right method of cipher of SQC-charts and to help learn how to analyse SQC-charts. The second aim is to maximize the utility of SQC-charts by introducing some Distribution-free Statistical Tests which is experted to provide some methods of test for null hypothese $(H_0)$ concerning the randomness of manufacturing processes.

  • Vehicle-to-grid presents a mechanism to meet the key requirements of an electric power system, using electric vehicles (EVs) when they are parked. The most economic ancillary service is that of frequency regulation, which imposes some constraints regarding the period and duration of time the vehicles have to be connected to the grid. The majority of research explores the profitability of the aggregator, while the perspective of the EV fleet owner, in terms of their need for usage of their fleet, remains neglected. In this paper, the optimal allocation of available vehicles on a day-ahead basis using queuing theory and fuzzy multi-criteria methodology has been determined. The proposed methodology is illustrated on the daily scheduling of EVs in an electricity distribution company.

  • The present investigation deals with the thermomechanical interactions in an orthotropic thermoelastic homogeneous body in the context of fractional order theory of thermoelasticity due to time harmonic sources. The application of a time harmonic concentrated and distributed sources has been considered to show the utility of the solution obtained. Assuming the disturbances to be harmonically time dependent, the expressions for displacement components, stress components and temperature change are derived in frequency domain. Numerical inversion technique has been used to determine the results in physical domain. The effect of frequency on various components has been depicted through graphs.

  • Caregiving for the children seems to be one of the most challenging tasks for the parents who should devote themselves totally despite endangering them. From the evolutionary perspective, this human behavior must have been the advantage in the survival of the species and rooted in ethological origin. John Bowlby, a child psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, and great developmental researcher, had formulated the attachment theory linking psychoanalysis and ethology through evolutionary biology. His and later following researchers' outcomes have provided enormous influence on viewing parental caregiving and the insight of human relationships and interventions. This article overviews the attachment theory in terms of the goal oriented cybernetic system to gain the survival advantage of the offspring and investigates the evolutionary origin of the caregiving and attachment from the retiles of the Mesozoic era to the mammalian revolution and finally to the human being. Deeper understanding of the nurturance and adult relationships from the standpoint of evolution can provide clinical utility of awareness of clients' lives.

  • This paper proposed a service satisfaction index in the service design. We utilize the service blueprint as the basic tool for the service process analysis, construct a service flow fishbone diagram which consists of the encounters representing the interaction between customer and service deliverer. To evaluate the service satisfactions of the service element a service satisfaction function is used. The service satisfaction function has the generic properties of the prospect theory with the probabilistic utility value in order to evaluate the service bundle which Is constructed by tangible and intangible service elements. A numerical example using the A/S service of Electronic Co. is presented for the verification.
