Items are assumed to fail by degradation. An appropriate stochastic model of such item is a cumulative process in which an item can fail only when the total amount of wear exceeds a prespecified failure level. This paper presents replacement policy in which an item is replaced at a certain level of wear before failure or at failure, whichever occurs first. Yet, when measuring the item wear level is very expensive, destructive or time-consuming, it may be economical to use substitutive characteristics that are correlated with the item wear level and relatively inexpensive to measure. The item's wear level could usually be estimated by monitoring such substitutive characteristics only except for a breakdown, which may be observed immediately at its occurrence. The purpose of this paper is to find an optimal periodic replacement policy based on such substitutive characteristics that balance the cost of replacement with the cost of failure and result in a minimum total long-run average cost per unit time. The optimal level of substitutive characteristics to replace the item is obtained. Numerical example illustrate how the model can be used to determine the optimal replacement policy.

Purpose - It has been argued that the regulations restricting entry and opening hours of General Super Markets and Super Super Markets have not been as effective as expected. In contrast, the win-win item scheme that appeared recently has the advantage that it could raise the effectiveness of the system in that win-win items are in principle resigned on the basis of bilateral agreements. This study analyzes the win-win item agreement made between Homeplus at Hap-jung and small traditional markets to examine the practical effectiveness of the win-win item scheme. While existing literature studying the regulatory effects have concentrated on the restrictions around store entry or opening hours of large retailers, it can be said that there have been few empirical studies on the effect of win-win items agreement with large retailers. Research design, data, and methodology - Homeplus at Hap-jung made a win-win items agreement with nearby small traditional market traders in 2013. In accordance with this voluntary agreement, Homeplus started by limiting its sales to 15 win-win items. The survey was conducted through one-on-one interviews, April 14 to May 2, 2014, by a professional public opinion research agency. The interviews were targeted at small business retailers in the nearby traditional market. We divided the traditional markets near Homeplus at Hap-jung where the win-win item agreement was achieved into two groups, win-win item agreement markets and non win-win item agreement markets, to compare the performance difference between the two groups. Results - To determine the change in sales of the 15 win-win items, we examined the performance difference between the two groups using two criteria (compared with similar items, and compared to sales volume a year ago). The results show that the individual sales of win-win items in the win-win item agreement markets are more likely to increase than in the non win-win item agreement markets. Total sales volume of individual stores in the agreement markets also showed a more significant increase compared to a year ago than those in non win-win item agreement markets. Conclusions - Contrary to the existing retail regulations that have one-sided and uniform characteristics, it can be pointed out that the win-win item scheme has the effect of increasing the success of the system itself because it is done on the basis of mutual agreement between General Super Markets and traditional markets. The empirical results of this study can be said to support this conjecture. For the successful settlement of a win-win items agreement, the following points should be reviewed. First, it requires a great effort from the selection process of win-win items in order to improve the effectiveness of the agreement. Second, the existing General Super Markets customers should be introduced to the traditional markets or small shops to increase the sales of win-win items. Therefore, voluntary effort is essentially required from the traditional markets to engage customers.

This paper designs and implements of Item pool-Based Program using Visual Basic, a sort of self- study system. This paper is implemented the system which makes and remakes the test items using item-pool data with different method from an ordinary fixed form of evaluation. This system helps teachers to make a various test type of items by searching data through the item-pool and accounting it to the test items. This system will also improve the learner's understanding of the problems and desire for self-solving a problem.

This paper deals with preventive replacements models for the item whose failures are dependent on their wear level. When measuring the item wear level is very costly, it may be economical to use substitutive characteristics that are correlated with the item wear level and relatively inexpensive to measure. In this paper, replacement policies based on such substitutive characteristics are proposed. The optimal level of substitutive characteristic to replace the item, which minimizes total cost, is obtained. Some numerical examples are also given.

A versatile dimensionality assessment index DETECT has been developed for binary item response data by Kim (1994). The present paper extends the use of DETECT to the polytomously scored item data. A simulation study shows DETECT performs well in differentiating multidimensional data from unidimensional one by yielding a greater value of DETECT in the case of multidimensionality. An additional investigation is necessary for the dimensionally meaningful clustering methods, such as HAC for binary data, particularly sensitive to the polytomous data.

Clustering is a data mining method, which consists in discovering interesting data distributions in very large databases. In traditional data clustering, similarity of a cluster of object is measured by pairwise similarity of objects in that paper. In view of the nature of clustering transactions, we devise in this paper a novel measurement called item similarity and utilize this to perform clustering. With this item similarity measurement, we develop an efficient clustering algorithm for target marketing in each group.

This paper proposes free warranty interval for repairable items when the failure types of item are considered. Failure types are classified into major failure and minor failure. If major failure occurs during warranty period, the item is replaced and if minor failure occurs during warranty period, the item is minimally repaired. This paper determines the optimum free warranty interval which minimizes total expected cost of the free warranty cost model. Numerical example is shown in which failure time of item has weibull distribution.

Mining association rules in web log files can be divided into two steps: 1) discovering frequent item sets in web data; 2) extracting association rules from the frequent item sets found in the previous step. This paper suggests an algorithm for finding frequent item sets efficiently The essence of the proposed algorithm is to transform transaction data files into matrix format. Our experimental results show that the suggested algorithm outperforms the Apriori algorithm, which is widely used to discover frequent item sets, in terms of scan frequency and execution time.
