This paper describes the design and implementation details of a distributed transactional workflow monitoring system. There have been prevalent research and development trends in the workflow literature - workflow systems tend to be completely distributed architectures to support very large-scale workflow applications on object-oriented and internet-based infrastructures. That is, the active (object), distributed (architecture), system-oriented (transaction), and large-scale (application) workflow systems are the key targets in terms of the research and development aspects. While the passive, centralized, human-oriented, and small/medium scale workflow systems are the typical instances of the traditional workflow systems. Unlike in the traditional (the client-server architecture) workflow systems, the workflow monitoring features should not be easily supported in the recent (the fully distributed architecture) workflow systems. At the same time, they need a set of additional monitoring features, such as gathering and displaying statistical (or overload status) information of the workflow architectural components dispersed on the internet. We, in this paper, introduce the additional workflow monitoring features that are necessarily required for the recent workflow systems, and show how to embed those features into a web-based distributed workflow system.

The current trends in information technology and intelligent systems use data mining techniques to discover patterns and extract rules from distributed databases. In distributed environment, the extracted rules from data mining techniques can be used in dynamic replications, adaptive load balancing and other schemes. However, transmission of large data through the system can cause errors and unreliable results. This paper proposes the intelligent distributed platform based on dynamic group binding using mobile agents which addresses the use of intelligence in distributed environment. The proposed grouping service implements classification scheme of objects. Data compressor agent and data miner agent extracts rules and compresses data, respectively, from the service node databases. The proposed algorithm performs preprocessing where it merges the less frequent dataset using neuro-fuzzy classifier before sending the data. Object group classification, data mining the service node database, data compression method, and rule extraction were simulated. Result of experiments in efficient data compression and reliable rule extraction shows that the proposed algorithm has better performance compared to other methods.

In open communication architecture, application systems consist of objects distributed in lots of computing nodes. To reduce complexity of development. and management of distributed software, to manage efficiently distributed objects and to provide realtime service, the mechanisms for object group management and communication are needed in distributed environment. In this paper we compose object groups and provide reliable group communication mechanism based on CORBA which can adopt a new service without lots of changes on existing system. Group consist of some subgroups that subgroup manager manages for improving the efficiency of group management and message ordering is kept by using sequencer, Communication method among groups uses multicast based on paint to point communication as well as IP multicast and we provide high performance by using selective retransmission of message through message history, We analyze the performance of the proposed mechanism through simulation in distributed environment.

The philosophy of object-oriented has found its role in various applications such as programming languages, databases, distributed systems, etc. Discussed in this paper is an experience of the object-oriented programming technique obtained while developing a particular CAD/CAM system. It has been well-known that the object-oriented programming language has good features enabling the improved reusability and extensibility of an existing code. The features include data abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and so on. This paper presents how these features of the object-oriented programming language, C++ in particular, can be applied to the implementation of geometric algorithms as well as graphical user interfaces.

To develop a generic ERP(Enterprise Resource Planning) system which can accommodate various types of manufacturing enterprises, object-oriented methods are commonly applied from analysis to implementation. The objective of OO-ERP (Object-Oriented ERP) systems is the reusability of business objects(components). In practice, one of the critical features for the reusable OO-ERP system would be the capability of interfacing with distributed, heterogeneous data repositories. Consequently, it is essential to provide data repository transparency in OO-ERP systems - business objects do not take care of the locations and types of data repositories. In this paper, we propose Data Object Layer(DOL) that supports such transparency. DOL is a horizontal component through which OO-ERP systems can be seamlessly connected with diverse data repositories.

This paper proposes a data fusion algorithm of nonlinear multi sensor dynamic systems of synchronous sampling based on filtering step by step. Firstly, the object state variable at the next time index can be predicted by the previous global information with the systems, then the predicted estimation can be updated in turn by use of the extended Kalman filter when all of the observations aiming at the target state variable arrive. Finally a fusion estimation of the object state variable is obtained based on the system global information. Synchronously, we formulate the new algorithm and compare its performances with those of the traditional nonlinear centralized and distributed data fusion algorithms by the indexes that include the computational complexity, data communicational burden, time delay and estimation accuracy, etc.. These compared results indicate that the performance from the new algorithm is superior to the performances from the two traditional nonlinear data fusion algorithms.

This paper presents a computational object model supporting CM(Continuous Media) stream interfaces including QoS(Quality of Service) required in the distributed application method for the proposed stream interface including QoS. A stream interface consists of a data channel and a control channel. In this paper, the CORBA supporting communication channel is used as the control channel and various transport protocols can be used as the dta channel of the stream interface. Also, specifications of the application QoS are included in stream interface specification. In implementation, FIFO queues and timers are used to support transmission rate, delay and jitter control mechanisms of he stream interface.

The Intelligent Space(ISpace) provides challenging research fields for surveillance, human-computer interfacing, networked camera conferencing, industrial monitoring or service and training applications. ISpace is the space where many intelligent devices, such as computers and sensors, are distributed. According to the cooperation of many intelligent devices, the environment, it is very important that the system knows the location information to offer the useful services. In order to achieve these goals, we present a method for representing, tracking and human following by fusing distributed multiple vision systems in ISpace, with application to pedestrian tracking in a crowd. And the article presents the integration of color distributions into particle filtering. Particle filters provide a robust tracking framework under ambiguity conditions. We propose to track the moving objects by generating hypotheses not in the image plan but on the top-view reconstruction of the scene. Comparative results on real video sequences show the advantage of our method for multi-object tracking. Also, the method is applied to the intelligent environment and its performance is verified by the experiments.

Since software development team members have been more geographically spread due to the globalization of business and Internet technologies, the management of deliverables and communication efforts for developing high-quality software products on time is becoming more complicated. Among the functional requirements for collaborative software development management, the manipulation of shared information objects is essential for the collaborative work among distributed development team members. This paper proposes an integrated information object management framework comprised of a so-called BOC (Bill Of Class) scheme and a standardized software part dictionary for managing shared information objects efficiently among distributed co-workers. In order to manage these complex information objects, the proposed framework adopt product structures represented by Bills Of Materials (BOM) as stems for integrating the various information objects. Based on the proposed framework, a collaborative software development management system (CSDMS) is implemented, and the functionalities and the structure of the system are also described in this paper. The proposed system provides sufficient functionalities for the change management of information objects and the management of their relationship to other objects rather than existing system.
