This study aims to propose a determinant model to select a method on calculating weight of each indicator for environmental evaluation. According to analyzing and comparing with three types of methods for calculating weights which are usually used to evaluate environment with indicators, the weights which were obtained by each type were all different from each other. This means that a differential weighting method must be applied to each of environmental evaluation studies. Therefore, a determinant model is required to determine weight-calculating methods. Three types of weighting methods, such as weighting by importance degree, weighting by eigen-value and weighting by analytic hierarchy process, were compared. Under the necessity, a determinant model was drawn for selecting a compatible method to calculate weights of indicators in environmental evaluation.

In this paper, we propose an emotional evaluation model based on information fusion. This model can transform the physical features of a color pattern to the emotional features. Our proposed model consists of the fuzzy logic system and neural network model. The evaluation values produced by them were fused. The model shows comparable performances to the neural network and fuzzy logic system for the approximation of the nonlinear transforms. We believe the evaluated results of a color pattern can be used to the emotion-based color image retrievals.

As attention to the Internet from both companies and individuals is rapidly on the increase, hundreds of new websites are opening in a single day. Along with such a high attention to the Internet, to set up an effective website needs efficient evaluation and reliable evaluation criterions for the website. The existing homepage contests and evaluation models are limited to certain websites in a special field or to the systemic side and to the contents, which in fact weakened the development of detailed evaluation sections and items possibly measured. This study is designed to integrate and seek out methods and success factors that should be considered when a website is built up, discovering evaluation criterions and making evaluation models objectively possible to be measured. The study focused on investigation into a new measurement standard and model by considering the previous studies, in order to suggest the followings: Centering the 7 top evaluation sections by type of each website such as (1) Service, (2) Mechanism, (3) Structure & Navigation, (4) Usability, (5) Contents (6) Community, (7) Communication, the study suggests an objective and reasonable website evaluation model on a basis of common factors considered in an integral and optimum view.

This study developed a new model for evaluating activities related to PL(Product Liability), with which our domestic enterprises can more easily assess the actual status of the management of PL than as they could do before. In addition, this model was designed to make the evaluation can be done focusing on the Product safety management cycle, unlike the other PL evaluation models. This model consists of 3 evaluation domains such as evaluations of planning, implementation, and assessment and taking action regarding product safety management. In order to verify that this evaluation model meets its objectives, the researcher directly conducted evaluations of activities related to PL in 3 companies specializing in electric home appliances through visiting them.

Recently, information technology and information system(IS) are rapidly diffused throughout the world. In the global competitive environment, the success of IS becomes the important one among the critical success factors(CSF) of the firm. For achieving it, the firm must continually involve itself in the quality evaluation and improvement of IS. The quality concept was changed into the customer-oriented quality one. There is no exception to the quality of IS. In the past, IS quality was determined by the IS developer or IS department offering service. Now it is evaluated by the user of IS service, and then the customer-oriented user satisfaction becomes an important issue. The purpose of this study is to develope the total quality evaluation model of IS through TQM approach. First, all success factors of the domestic IS are extracted from the foreign and domestic literatures of IS success factors contained the technical and behavioral aspects. And the extracted factors are classified with evaluation levels for quality evaluation and developed into a total quality evaluation model. Finally the model usefulness is analyzed.

The purpose of this study is to develop meta evaluating indicators for Defense R&D Programs in Korea. At first, the four components of this meta evaluation model were designed, which are evaluation context, evaluation input, evaluation process, evaluation output. And fifty two indicators were developed for this meta evaluation. Basic model of meta evaluation was derived from the literature review and brain storming. And this meta evaluation model was determined by adapting the result of experts who performed evaluations for Defense R&D Programs in recent years. Factor Analysis method was used to verify the validity of meta evaluation model. The survey of fifty three members turned out that Cronbach' ${\alpha}$ was over 0.6 in evaluation components and items. And the reliability of evaluation context was 0.877, that of evaluation input was 0.755, that of evaluation process was 0.755, that of evaluation output was 0.755 respectively. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was used in assigning the evaluation weight. The survey of twenty two members showed that the Consistency Ratio was 0.09 in evaluation components and items.

This study aims to systematically develop a usability evaluation model using the Structural Equation Model (SEM) from experiment of usability on using vehicle. Vehicle developers have been adding many functions for enhance the user satisfaction. But it will be made the trade-off problem of usability and design elements of vehicle interior from attempt to make best usability satisfaction in a restricted space. To solve the trade-off problem, we set a new solution criterion from usability evaluation model. The usability experiment is based on major activity pool from derived user's acts pattern in vehicle for make more accurate usability evaluation model. And this model was built with twenty-nine measurement variables for the evaluation of usability of vehicle user. As a result, the proposed SEM model showed statistical significance as well as a high level of R Square (0.7144). This model shows the relationships of detailed usability and design elements. According to the result, this study introduces the criterion to secure the best satisfaction of usability and design elements.

Open Source Software has over 60 percent of application software development but previous studies of objective quality model and characteristic to utilize Open Source Software appeared to be low and there are few studies regarding quantitative evaluation methods to evaluate Open Source Software. To solve these problems, in this paper, we propose a quality evaluation model, "Logical Open Source Software quality model", which is able to utilize for developing and maintaining application software and quantitative quality evaluation method that can utilize in the proposed model. The proposed Open Source Software quality model derives quality characteristics based on literature and it forms six main-features and twelve sub-characteristics by comparing with the quality characteristic of ISO/IEC 9126 and twelve evaluation metrics that can measure the metrics and the characteristics quantitatively. To verify efficiency of the proposed quality evaluation model, we apply the proposed quality evaluation to top 5 project management system (PMS) software in open source software community and prove its availability.
