In evaluating sound performance of building, it is important to carry on tests and evaluations based upon residential sound performances. Korean Standards include test methods on sound performance, but don't include any code on evaluation methods. Therefore, evaluation methods from Japan or ISO have been used for evaluating sound performance in domestic so far. In this study, a draft of Korean Standards on a sound performance evaluation method in buildings is proposed.

Most electric products produced during the manufacturing process are produced after design and mass production under a given control standard. In particular, the development phase should present the criteria for the production process by setting appropriate limits based on the performance being targeted. Even if the standard of performance is set considering the performance of the process, measuring the performance of the product after actual production results will cause nonconformities with the expected results. Among the performance of electrical products, Energy standards represented by energy consumption efficiency continue to be of importance, and are mandatory standards that correspond to national standards in most countries. Therefore, statistical quality control of these standards shall basically have a large number of test equipment for each product, ensure sufficient test time and continuous sampling of product samples. In the end, companies that produce and sell electric appliances are striving to control mass production at a great cost, but this is not acceptable. This study presents basic characteristics of the energy efficiency of electrical products and proposes and conducts a case study on statistical production control methods for performance variation across products under the standards about domestic and international regulations.

Urban transit consists of signaling system, railway systems, power facilities systems and the other complicated facilities and the standards notify the standardizations, safety standards, performance standards and quality certification standards according to the Urban Transit Act. The government notifies and recommends these standards to improve the performance, safety and maintenance efficiency of urban transit. Now, we need to manage the records and traceability of the standards because they have reciprocal relations with the others so that, if some standards have been changed it could make some problems to the others. As a result, in this research, we suggest the way to manage the traceability of the standards by using the computation support tools.

The final purpose of this study is to present the performance evaluation criteria (draft) of the autonomous initial suppression digestion system. In this study, in order to present the performance standards for the autonomous initial suppression fire extinguishing agent system currently in the development stage, the legal performance standards for fire extinguishing equipment currently applied to domestic buildings and the performance standards of similar overseas previous research were compared and analyzed. In addition, based on this, the minimum performance standards required for the digestive system for autonomous initial suppression were presented. When the performance of the digestive system for autonomous initial suppression is evaluated based on the results of this study and applied, it is judged that it is possible to respond more quickly in the situation of fire.

The thermometers is widely used in diagnostic medical devices, and the safety and accurate performance of these devices are important in the diagnosis and monitoring of personal health. Especially, the accuracy of infra-red thermometer is highly emphasized. Here two typical thermometers are utilized for this purpose: the electronic thermometers measure body temperature by contacting to subject while infra-red thermometers measure by no contacting to subject. Therefore, the evaluating items of each thermometer are different, and the standard for each temperature is highly needed. But, there have been no international standards of each thermometer such as IEC. In this paper, we developed the standards of electronic and infra-red thermometer based on national standards such as KS, ASTM, EN, JIS and FDA guidance. The new standards focused on the safety and suitable performance for health care. This standards were applied to enact and revise the electronic medical device standards. So it can be applied to evaluate the safety and performance on technical file review. We predict that this standard will improve the quality of diagnostic medical devices (thermometers) and increase the international competitive power of domestic product.

Background: Data from BreastScreen Australia Screening and Assessment Services (SAS) for 2002-2010 were analysed to determine whether some SAS characteristics were more conducive that others to high screening performance, as indicated by high priority performance indicators and standards. Materials And Methods: Indicators investigated related to: numbers of benign open biopsies, screen-detected invasive cancers, and interval cancers, and wait times between screening and assessment. Multivariate Poisson regression was undertaken using as candidate predictors of performance, SAS size (screening volume), urban or rural location, year of screening, accreditation status, and percentages of clients from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, rural and remote areas, and socio-economically disadvantaged areas. Results: Performance standards for benign biopsies and invasive cancer detection were uniformly met irrespective of SAS location and size. The interval cancer standard was also met, except in 2003 when the 95% confidence interval of the rate still incorporated the national standard. Performance indicators improved over time for: benign open biopsy for second or subsequent screening rounds; rates of invasive breast cancer detection for second or subsequent screening rounds; and rates of small cancer detection. No differences were found over time in interval cancer rates. Interval cancer rates did not differ between non-metropolitan and metropolitan SAS, although state-wide SAS had lower rates. The standard for wait time between screening and assessment (being assessed ${\leq}28$ days) was mostly unmet and this applied in particular to SAS with high percentages of culturally and linguistically diverse women in their screening populations. Conclusions: Gains in performance were observed, and all performance standards were met irrespective of SAS characteristics, except wait times to assessment. Additional descriptive data should be collected on SAS characteristics, and their associations with favourable screening performance, as these may be important when deciding on SAS design
