Graphs have provided a powerful methodology to solve a lot of real-world problems, and therefore there have been many proposals on the graph representations and algorithms. But, because most of them considered only memory-based graphs, there are still difficulties to apply them to large-scale problems. To cope with the difficulties, this paper proposes a graph representation and graph algorithms based on the well-developed relational database theory. Graphs are represented in the form of relations which can be visualized as relational tables. Each vertex and edge of a graph is represented as a tuple in the tables. Graph algorithms are also defined in terms of relational algebraic operations such as projection, selection, and join. They can be implemented with the database language such as SQL. We also developed a library of basic graph operations for the management of graphs and the development of graph applications. This database approach provides an efficient methodology to deal with very large- scale graphs, and the graph library supports the development of graph applications. Furthermore, it has many advantages such as the concurrent graph sharing among users by virtue of the capability of database.

In the ASP(Application Service Provider) business, applications using database sometimes require some data from clients' databases. These days such data are extracted from client database using manual database operations as an EXCEL file and the ASP, once receiving this file, transfers it into the application's database using manual database operations. This paper describes how to deal with data transmitting between the client database and ASP database on the web without using database manual operations for data extraction and insertion. We propose a framework which enables to transmit client data in a systematical way, to match different attribute names of each database for sharing same attribute values, and to avoid exposing information about the network path of client database to the ASP. This approach consists of two steps of data processing. The first is extracting data from client database as XML format by using a downloaded client program from ASP site, the second is uploading and storing the XML file into the ASP database. The implemented prototype system shows the suggested data integration paradigm is valid and ASP business needing integration of client database can be activated using it.

The performance of relational database is measured by the number of disk accesses necessary to transfer data from disk to main memory. The paper proposes to vertically partition relations into fragments and to allow attribute replication to reduce the number of disk accesses. To reduce the computational time, heuristic search method using genetic algorithm is used. Genetic algorithm used employs a rank-based-sharing fitness function and elitism. Desirable parameters of genetic algorithm are obtained through experiments and used to find the solutions. Solutions of attribute replication and attribute non-replication problems are compared. Optimal solutions obtained by branch and bound method and by heuristic solutions(genetic algorithm) are also discussed. The solution method proposed is able to solve large-sized problems within acceptable time limit and shows solutions near the optimal value.

In this paper, development of TIM Module for constructing PDM will be introduced. Technical information relevant product data influences cost, quality, precision and productivity. One of the very important feature of product data is organizing not by oneself but very closed to many technical information such as document, file, image and analysis sheet. To manage various technical information, several kinds of management system are used in multi level of production system. PDM and TIM systems are being developed for suitable purpose and are in need of Network technology, Information Technology, Database, sharing and distributing information. Developed TIM system is based on Web environment. By using this system, we can manage systematic technical information and reduce cost for constructing PDM system. And also we will put to practical use another technical information management system for mold plant.

There have been numerous attempts at finding factors associated with profitability among hospitals in the Republic of Korea. Factors that have been shown to be related to hospital profitability have not yet been systematically reviewed. The purpose of this study was to compile and summarize published works investigating the factors associated with hospital profitability in the Republic of Korea. We searched Research Information Sharing Service, Korea studies Information Service System, Database Periodical Information Academic, Korean Medical Database, KoreaMed, and Google Scholar from 1980 to November 2013. In addition, we manually searched reference lists from eligible studies. Review of 20 peer-reviewed articles revealed that very few of the variables employed in the eligible studies exerted consistent association with profitability, with the exception of personal cost (i.e., employee salaries). Future studies should take our findings into consideration before conducting research on hospital profitability.

Birth and development of information biology are introduced with its definition and scientific basis. The discipline lives on the two types of nutrition, one is a huge amount of biological data on genomes, gene expressions, proteomes, protein 3D structures, protein networks, and so forth. The other is the method of using them on a computer. The scientific basis of the two is evolution. To collect genome and gene expression data form laboratories in the world, annotate and dissimilate back to researchers worldwide, they built the EMBL database in Europe in 1982, GenBank in USA in 1984 and DNA Data Bank of Japan in 1987. On the other hand, the methods of using and analyzing those data have accordingly been developed. The two aspects advance the discipline further and further.

기존에 제안된 대부분의 병렬 조인 알고리즘들은 데이타베이스가 여러 처리 노드에 분할되어 저장되는 데이타베이스 분할 시스템을 가정하였다. 데이타베이스 분할 시스템은 다수의 노드들을 연결할 수 있으며 지리적으로 분산된 환경도 지원할수 있다는 장점을 갖지만, 데이타베이스 공유 시스템에 비해 부하 분산이나 시스템 가용성이 떨어진다는 단점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 데이타베이스 공유 시스템에서 병렬 질의 처리기를 위한 병렬 해쉬 조인 알고리즘을 구현한다. 이를 위하여, 데이타베이스 공유 시스템에 적용 가능하도륵 병렬 질의 처리기를 구성하고 병렬 해쉬 조인 알고리즘의 처리 과정에 대해 설명 한다.

It is becoming increasing1y the norm for project teams to be composed of individuals who are geographically distributed but connected by high speed network. In such environments a lot of work related documents are created, so there is real needs for the system that facilitate the effective sharing, maintaining. managing of them. This paper present the system that satisfy this needs, which is known as IDOMA(Intelligent Documents management system based on Multi Agent). IDOMA is the cooperative multi agent based documents management system which has not centralized database.
