This research presents a prototype development and implementation of Decision Support System (DSS) for integrated river basin water management for the flood control. The DSS consists of Relational Database Management System, Hydrologic Data Monitoring System, Spatial Analysis Module, Spatial and Temporal Analysis for Rainfall Event Tool, Flood Forecasting Module, Real-Time Operation of Multi Reservoir System, and Dialog Module with Graphical User Interface and Graphic Display Systems. The developed DSS provides an automated process of alternative evaluation and selection within a flexible, fully integrated, interactive, centered relational database management system in a user-friendly computer environment. The river basin decision-maker for the flood control should expect that she or he could manage the flood events more effectively by fully grasping the hydrologic situation throughout the basin.

Virtuality is a product of the information age, and as it plays a larger role in the activities of individuals, groups and organizations, the issue of how human behavior varies between virtual and physical space has become one of the most important questions facing the management environment of today. The purpose of this article is to examine how virtuality shapes individuals' social relationships within and outside their work groups. We developed a conceptual framework that explores the links between virtuality and social network based on computer-mediated communication theory and social network theory. Using data from 172 individuals of 42 project teams in 5 global business consulting firms, we tested cross-level hypotheses. The results of hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) indicate that virtuality significantly influences individual's internal tie strength as well as external bridging ties. The results also show the effects of virtual process via CMC vary along with the virtual context.

In this study, a modified algorithm for the exchange heuristic is developed and applied to a resource-constrained scheduling problem. The problem involves multiple projects and multiple resource categories and allows flexible resource allocation to each activity. The objective is to minimize the maximum completion time. The exchange heuristkc is a multiple pass algorithm which makes improvements upon a given initial feasible schedule. Four different modified algorithms are proposed. The original algorithm and the new algorithms were compared through an experimental investigation. All the proposed algorithms reduce the maximum completion time much more effectively than the original algorithm. Especially, one of four proposed algorithms obviously outperforms the other three algorithms. The algorithm of the best performance produces significantly shorter schedules than the original algorithm, though it requires up to three times more computation time. However, in most situations, a reduction in schedule length means a significant reduction in the total cost.

In this paper, a prototype of agent-based engineering system is developed based on the AADE (autonomous agent development environment), a FIPA compliant agent platform. By applying several advanced technologies including software agents, Internet/Web, workflow and database, the developed prototype system is able to successfully fulfill our target of integrating personnel, design activities and engineering resources along a predefined engineering design project (workflow). A software prototype is implemented to integrate various engineering software tools including CAD, structural analysis (FEA), dynamic analysis, fatigue analysis. A wheel-axle-assembly (part of a bogie system) is chosen as a test case for the validation of the prototype system.

In selecting the best project in multi-criteria decision making problems, the imperfect information of consequence and the vague preference of the decision maker(DM) would make the decision analysis more complex together with the conflict of several criteria. In this context, a method is proposed to deal the fuzzy information mentioned before instead of reducing it to a single representative value. And, based on the given imprecise information, projects are ranked completely or partially according to DM's vague preference. The procedure consists, for each pair of projects, of calculating the degree of supporting over all criteria and the degree of opposing with respect to each criterion for their outranking relation. Together with weights for each criterion, these indices produce fuzzy outranking relations for each pair of projects. And a complete or partial ranking of projects is obtained according to outranking degrees considering the interdependence among projects.

This paper is focused on the development of the DFX system which can support the task that designer or project teams analyse and evaluate the feasibility of the product concept quickly, and then improve the problem of the product and process design before the manufacture in the M-T-O (make-to-order) environments. In this paper, we importantly treated three points for the effective development of the DFX system. The first, we proposed the procedure and architecture of the DFX system which fit with the M-T-O environments. The second, we designed and implemented the DFX prototype system on the WWW, in order to allow the multi-accessing and multi-processing regardless of time and position. The last, we described the benefits of the Web-based DFX system.

We report the first steps of a collaborative project between the University of Queensland, Polyflow, Michelin, SK Chemicals, and RMIT University, on simulation, validation and application of a recently introduced constitutive model designed to describe branched polymers. Whereas much progress has been made on predicting the complex flow behaviour of many - in particular linear - polymers, it sometimes appears difficult to predict simultaneously shear thinning and extensional strain hardening behaviour using traditional constitutive models. Recently a new viscoelastic model based on molecular topology, was proposed by McLeish and carson (1998). We explore the predictive power of a differential multi-mode version of the porn-pom model for the flow behaviour of two commercial polymer melts: a (long-chain branched) low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and a (linear) high-density polyethylene (HDPE). The model responses are compared to elongational recovery experiments published by Langouche and Debbaut (19c99), and start-up of simple shear flow, stress relaxation after simple and reverse step strain experiments carried out in our laboratory.

In the large and multifunctional engineering system, the heterogeneous computer system situation is inevitable. Accordingly a lot of integration efforts are being made to comply with the industrial requirement of productivity. In this paper, a practical concept of integration is introduced through the development of a prototype system for ship outfitting design which is a typical example of large/multi-functional application system. On the development of the prototype system, three points are considered as a practical concept-which are integration of database, integration of application programs, and system-user interface. The relation model based commercial database management system(RDBMS) is used to build the project integrated database, and the graphical user interface tool(OSF/Motif) on X-window system is used for the integration of application programs and the user interface.

As the size and scope of R&D investment explodes, the strategic and managerial importance of R&D proposal screening becomes highlighted. This point is particularly true for a large-scale research center that deals with multi-product and multi-technology R&D projects. Despite the importance, however, previous research has focused on project evaluation and selection stage. In this research, we propose a R&D proposal screening system. The main objective of the system is to filter R&D proposals that are identified to be duplications of past or existing projects. To this end, the algorithm of the system employs text mining, multivariate statistical method, and case-based reasoning.
