In this paper, an optimal selection methodology for the number of phases will be proposed for an interleaved boost converter (IBC). Also, the analysis of the input current ripple according to CCM and DCM is carried out. The proposed design methodology will be theoretically analyzed, and its validity verified by simulation as well as with experimental results. Moreover, a comparison of cost and efficiency based on a 600W laboratory prototype using the Ballard NEXA 1.2kW PEMFC system is demonstrated.

This study introduces a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based methodology for optimizing apartment space arrangements, addressing the limitations of human capability in evaluating all potential spatial configurations. Leveraging computational power, the methodology facilitates the autonomous exploration and evaluation of innovative layout options, considering architectural principles, legal standards, and client re-quirements. Through comprehensive simulation tests across various apartment types, the research demonstrates the DRL approach's effec-tiveness in generating efficient spatial arrangements that align with current design trends and meet predefined performance objectives. The comparative analysis of AI-generated layouts with those designed by professionals validates the methodology's applicability and potential in enhancing architectural design practices by offering novel, optimized spatial configuration solutions.

In this paper, a new method of product function analysis is presented to categorize various design information generated in product development processes. In order to improve product functions, designers must understand unit functions and modified parts of products. The product function analysis (PFA) is based on the designer's understanding of product functions. The proposed PFA provides the methodology to classify the various functions systematically and understand the relation between functions easily. Using this approach, efficient design support system can be developed and used for designers to support decision-making with design knowledge.

Software Communication Architecture(SCA) has been made to reduce the development period of new waveform applications by reusing design modules. Software Defined Radio(SDR) forum adopted SCA specification and follows its design concept. However, SCA specification does not describe interfaces and deployments of resources in details, which are software components, and how to implement them as well as how to communicate each other are another missing points in specification. In this paper, we propose a resource design methodology and details of adapter implementation for Core Framework(CF) that is a core set of open interface and services providing an abstraction of the underlying software and hardware layer. We also present SDR prototype system which communicates with resources implemented in different programming languages and processors in legacy environment through our design methodology.

The design methodology of an adequate input voltage and magnetizing inductance to minimize reactive power is suggested to design a wireless power transfer (WPT) converter for high-power transfer efficiency. To increase the magnetizing inductance, the turn number of the WPT coil is increased, thus causing high parasitic resistance in the WPT coil. Moreover, the high coil resistance produces high conduction loss in the transfer and receive coils. Therefore, the analysis of conduction loss is used in the design of the WPT coil and the operating point of the WPT converter. To verify the proposed design methodology, the mathematical analysis of the conduction loss is presented by experimental results.

This study was contrived Hierarchical Information Search (HIS) model. HIS model is based on a “cognitive process” in which model, comprising basic human information processing mechanize and information interaction. Its process include 3 semantic cognitive processes: Schema-Association LTM, Form Domain, and Alternative Selection. Design methodology consists to elicitate memory, thinking and cognitive response variables. In case study, menu structure of mobile phone was applied. In result, a correlation between predictive error rate and real error rate was .892. and a correlation between selective and real reaction time was .697. This present to suggest a model of how the methodology could be applied to real system design effectively when this was used. HIS model could become one of the most important factors for success of product design. In the perspective, the systemic methodology would contribute to design a quantitative and predictive system.

Conceptual database design is an important activity because the performance of a DBMS heavily depends on the proper design of the database, and view integration is one of the most important phases of conceptual database design. During this phase, the individual views designed by separate user groups are integrated into a global view for the entire system. After the view integration, a database schema must be validated before it becomes a stable product of the design. In this paper, a methodology for view integration an validation is suggested. The individual views are modeled by entity-relationship model. The entities are integrated according to their name and domain information. After that, the relationships are merged by their constraints. We also present a methodology for checking redundant relationships which has an algorithmic description.

Data distribution is one of the most important steps in distributed database design. This paper proposes a methodology for distributing database by using a relational schema as an input. A design support system called DBDD (Database Distribution Design) is implemented within the framework of this methodology. The methodology consists of three phases such as (i) schema analysis, (ii) fragmentation, and (iii) allocation. In the schema analysis phase, all the table names are acquired from a global relational schema. In the fragmentation phase, fragments are generated according to transaction retrieval patterns. Furthermore, DBDD enhances the design quality by allocating fragments in a progressive manner. A real-life case is illustrated to demonstrate the practical usefulness of the DBDD.

Purpose: In this paper, a Design for Six Sigma(DFSS) methodology based on DMADV(Define-Measure-Analyze-Design-Verify) roadmap is presented. Methods: DFSS tools are given for each DMADV phase which is suitable for the aircraft development process. A cost reduction case study of a navigation simulation is demonstrated. Results: DFSS roadmap are presented with implementation tools for each phase. Conclusion: We propose a DFSS methodology which can benefit the design and development personnel to implement DFSS not only in aircraft industry but also in other order-based industries in general.

Design optimization is performed to calculated the draw-bead force for satisfying the design re-quirements. For an analysis tool a rigid-plastic finite element method with modified membrane element is adopted. response surface methodology is utilized for constructing the approximation surface for the optimum searching of draw bead force in sheet metal forming process. the algorithm developed is ap-plied to a design of the draw bead forces in a deep drawing process. The results show that the design of process parameters is applicable in complex metal forming analysis. It is also noted that the present algo-rithm enhances the stable optimum solution with small times of optimization iteration.
