It is one of the crucial components of electronic logistics systems to manage logistics information of cargos and transportation companies and to mediate appropriate brokerage between them. Due to the advance of e-Commerce technologies many kinds of logistics transactions can be handled by means of EDI or XML/EDI applications. but the brokering processing relies mostly on the traditional processes and the research in this field is still at the initial stage. In this paper we study a logistics brokering system for ships and cargos and describe the design and implementation of the system. We analyze the brokering constraints for logistics of cargos and ships and construct an optimization model for their brokering. We also suggest a brokering procedure and a simple heuristic algorithm with respect to the proposed matching criteria. The experimental result shows that the proposed greedy-based heuristic algorithm performs very well. In its response time the proposed algorithm executed within a couple of seconds independently of the number of cargos and the container capacities of ships. The output of the algorithm is very close to that of the optimal solution. showing higher than 95% of approximation. The proposed system is implemented for the Web environment using JSP and PL/SQL.

Bioinformatics tools and databases are useful for understanding and processing various biological data. Numerous resources are being published each year. It is not a trivial task to find up-to-date relevant tools and databases. Moreover, no server is available to provide comprehensive coverage on bioinformatics resources in all biological fields. Here, we present a directory server called IntoPub that provides information on web resources. First, we downloaded XML-formatted abstracts containing web URLs from the NCBI PubMed database by using 'ESearch-EFetch' function in the NCBI E-utilities. The information is obtained from abstracts in the PubMed by extracting 'www' or 'http' prefixes. Then, we cu-rate the downloaded abstracts both in automatic and manual fashion. As of July 2011, the IntoPub database has 12,118 abstracts containing web URLs from 174 journals. Our anal-ysis shows that the number of abstracts containing web resources has increased signifi-cantly every year. The server has been tested by many biologists from several countries to get opinion on user satisfaction, usefulness, practicability, and ease of use since January 2010. In the IntoPub web server, users can easily find relevant bioinformatics resources, as compared to searching in PubMed. IntoPub will continue to update and incorporate new web resources from PubMed and other literature databases. IntoPub, available at http://into.kobic.re.kr/, is updated every day.

Ontology specifies the knowledge in a specific domain and defines the concepts of knowledge and the relationships between concepts. It is possible to provide the service based on the semantic web through the ontology. Therefore, to specify and define the knowledge in a specific domain, it is required to generate the ontology which conceptualizes the knowledge. Accordingly, to search the information of potential customers for home-delivery marketing of post office, we design the specific domain to generate the ontology based on the semantic web in this paper. And we propose how to retrieve the information, using the generated ontology. We implement the data search robot which collects the information based on the generated ontology. Also, we confirm that the ontology and the search robot perform the information retrieval exactly.

ThruBook is a collaborative work platform based on ebook documents, supporting synchronized group work sessions. Using this platform, users can participate in a group session based on a same ebook, and share group actions synchronously. In this paper, we consider annotations as all kinds of additional data on ebooks, including bookmarks, memos, and figures. Also, model shared actions such as sharing/navigating these annotations. As a result, we could model all collaborative actions as annotations, and propose a collaborative work model as communicating annotation objects between session participants. This approach implemented in ThruBook platform could easily model shared actions in collaborative systems. The collaborative work platform implemented in ThruBook can be applied to other types of collaborative work systems.

Various bioinformatics tools for biological data processing have been developed and most of them are available in public. Most bioinformatics works are carried out by a composite application of those tools. Several integration approaches have been proposed for easy use of the tools. This paper proposes a new multi agent system to integrate bioinformatics tools in the perspective of workflow since the composite applications of tools can be regarded as workflows. For the easy integration, the proposed system employs wrapper agents for existing tools, uses XML-based messages in the inter-agent communication, and agents are supposed to extract necessary information from the received messages. This allows new tools to be easily added on the integration framework. The proposed method allows various control structures in workflow definition and provides the progress monitoring capability of the on-going workflows. In particular, agents in this system have the rule-based architecture which allows the defined rule set to be a special role agent. This feature provides fast and flexible agent development to aid in managing the complexity of bioinformatics application. This system has been partially implemented and has been proven to be a viable implementation for workflow-based bioinformatics tool integration.

최근 전투체계는 동시에 다수의 장비들 사이에 실시간으로 데이터를 전달해야 하는데, 이러한 특성을 만족하는 통신 미들웨어로서 OMG (Object Management Group)에서 정의한 데이터 분배 서비스 (DDS ; Data Distribution Service)가 적합하다. 이를 구현한 DDS 시스템에는 RTI의 NDDS, PrismTech의 OpenSplice, 충남대학교의 ReTicom 등이 있다. 이 중 NDDS와 OpenSplice는 데이터의 영속성을 지원하지만 ReTicom에서는 영속성을 아직 지원하지 못한다. 이를 해결함과 동시에 실시간성을 보장하기 위해서 ReTicom은 메인 메모리 기반의 객체 관계형 데이터베이스를 사용하여 구현중이다. 이를 위해서는 DDS의 객체 모델 데이터를 정의하는 IDL과 객체 관계형 데이터베이스의 데이터 타입 및 구조 등이 동일하지 않기 때문에 IDL과 객체 관계형 데이터베이스간의 데이터 타입 및 구조를 변환하는 메타 모델 변환 방법이 제공되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 메타 모델 변환 방법을 해결하고자 IDL을 구조파악이 쉬운 XML 스키마로 변환 후 이를 객체 관계형 데이터베이스의 데이터 타입 및 구조 형태로 변환 해주는 방법을 제안한다.

Nowadays, there exist many forensic tools in forensic investigation. For common investigator it may cause some difficulty in handling the existing forensic tools. In case of urgent condition, if it takes long time to get the useful evidence from data, then it makes the investigation process difficult. Thus, the common investigator can collect the evidence easily by simple clicking the mouse. The only thing he needs is a tool for examination before investigating in details. Therefore, in this paper we refer to useful information in the forensic investigation, discuss the design and the implementation of tool.

A multi-agent and web based engineering framework concerning the automation of fatigue durability analysis for welded bogie frame of railway vehicles is presented. Mostly, this kind of design or analysis includes complex workflow, huge amounts of information processing, and problem solving. Macro programs of I-DEAS, APDL of ANSYS, and in-house fatigue code are utilized for parametric geometry representation, automatic mesh generation, static stress analysis, fatigue durability analysis, post-processing, and data sorting. The engineering framework is implemented on the JADE. Since every task requires a fairly complex process and specialized knowledge, the multi-agent based framework is very useful to keep the independency among several disciplines or tasks and to use distributed hardware and software resources. All engineering programs are integrated by XML wrapper. Related database of the engineering framework and web based user interfaces are also developed. A parametric study is carried out to take into account the effect of geometrical change of transom support bracket on its cumulative fatigue damage. The developed engineering framework reduced remarkably the time and costs required in designing and solving engineering problems.

In this paper, we present an EST sequence annotation system based on Service Oriented Architecture, called SeqWeB. We developed the web services of eight applications (Phred, cross_match, RepeatMasker, TGICL, ICAtools, CAP3, Phrap and Blast) which are located in sequence annotation process and integrated the web services through BFEL. SeqWeB uses an XML file format for data input and output to maximize interoperability between each application. SeqWeB can be extended or modified easily through some modification such as insertion, deletion and replacement because service-oriented architecture allows loose coupling between applications.
