The Project of Jordan Research and Training Reactor (JRTR) officially launched in Aug. 2010. JRTR is the first made-in-Korea nuclear system to be built abroad by year 2015, and Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) is responsible for the design of major systems including the reactor core. While the PDCS (Project Document Control System) being operated by EPC company controls all the documents of the whole Project, KAERI is supposed to have its own system for KAERI documents. Meeting such a need; KAERI has implemented a document control for the JRTR Project into already existing ANSIM (KAERI Advanced Nuclear Safety Information Management) system. The documents of JRTR project to be controlled are defined in the PPM (Project Procedures Manual), QAP (Quality Assurance Procedure) and PEP (Project Execution Program). The ANSIM consists of the document management holder, document container holder and organization management holder. The document management holder, which is the most important part of ANSIM-JRTR, consists of the DDA (Document Distribution for Agreement), IOC (Inter-office Correspondence), PM Memo. (Project Manager Memorandum) and cover sheets of design documents. Other materials such as meeting minutes, sub-department materials and design information materials are stored in an independent COP (Community of Practice). This established computerized document control system, ANSIM, could lessen a burden for project management team and enhance the productivity as well.

In proportion to continuing growth of overseas plant market and the trend of its mega scale of the project, the importance of management is significantly emphasized for the successful execution of the project. And it is recognized that progress control is the most important management item amongst the others in the management. Progress control is importance of progress measurement for performance measurement and process control of project, but it is hardly obtainable securing the objectivity in the progress measurement since the progress measurement are being applied differently in accordance with the project conditions and the experience level of the person in charge for the progress control. This study has conducted as following to propose a standard method for progress measurement in a petrochemical plant protect. Domestic and overseas plant projects are investigated variously with the applied method of progress measurement, and the deduced problem of progress measurement. And then standard method for progress measurement of engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning has been proposed according to comparison and analysis of practices in domestic & overseas plant project, procedures for progress control in the globally reputed petrochemical client, company rules and recommendation of the expert in progress control.

This paper suggests a new approach to IT project management based on a regular project meeting results to consider the recent project environment. The greater part of recent IT projects are related to e-business transformation. Transforming to e-business is a new problem very different from those they have been worked, in several point of views. Under e-business era, therefore any IT project is being implemented in more complex, dynamic and uncertain environment than traditional. That is, project leaders must consider more factors to control projects including resources, quality, risks, and technologies, and human resources. The project organizations and software corporations thus need to develop and establish new concepts or methodologies to manage e-business projects. In this point of view, an entropy model in this study is introduced for estimating and managing the uncertainty in project control using multi-attributes of project meeting. This paper proposes a new frame work based on entropy model using project meeting results to consider eIT project environment with a small pilot study.

This paper presents an integrated real-time monitoring and control framework that facilitates decision making by enabling project managers to take corrective actions right after any deviation happens and mitigate the damage to the ongoing steel projects. The proposed framework employs the High Level Architecture (HLA) as its infrastructure. It is composed of several individual monitoring and control components called "Federates," which cooperate and interact with each other through the Real-time Infrastructure (RTI). Reusability, interoperability and extendibility of federates in the proposed project control system make this a unique system.

As mega-sized and complex building construction projects are increased, the importance of project scheduling and control is emphasized. Project scheduling and control technic is not used widely yet in Korea, but interests in it is progressively increased. By now, most research projects mainly have focused on scheduling issues. Project progress management is also as much important as project scheduling issues. Current state about project progress management in Korea is analysed and way for improvements are suggested in this paper. At first, research projects undergone and practice are analysed and fields experts are survey about current state about project progress management. This study suggests the progress management method for quantitative and qualitative project progress analysis.

Regarding project management, many organizations have developed and distributed general project management knowledge systems, and application fields use the knowledge systems to apply the process suitable for characteristics of a project. This study suggests project management process models to apply to product development projects and introduces the application cases. This product development project management process model is composed of five top processes of initiation and preparation, planning, implementation management, control, and termination and transfer. The five processes are re-divided into 18 bottom processes. These processes are expressed as input, control, output, and mechanism by using the IDEF0 model. This model is applied to the new car development project of a Korean automobile company and introduces the cases, which shows a project charter, a work breakdown structure, a project schedule, a progress s-curve, a risk register, and a performance report.

We paid attention to the fact that a project will always tend to increase in size even if its scope is narrowing. The complexities and multidisciplinary aspects of projects require that the many parts should be put together so that the prime objectives- performance, time, and cost- are met. These aspects lead to the use of teams to solve problems that used to be solved by individuals. Firstly, We surveyed the design companies and their clients on the design projects, and categorized the design task into 5 phases, that are marketing, planning, idea development, presentation, and follow-up. Among the phases, the presentation has the most difficult task, longest processing time, and highest cost, whereas idea development phase has relatively low cost, longer processing time, and more difficult task. Most of the companies used to be faced several bottlenecks on their design projects - time control, budget control, and resource control. Secondly, for improving the project managing process, we adopted that dividing and analyzing the sub critical paths may help in the effective managing.(Badiru, Adedeji B., 1995) Some critical paths require almost as much attention as the critical path since they have a high potential of becoming critical when changes occur in the network. Therefrom we suggest the Total task weight(Gt) as a management formula for the design project management.${Gt=\mathrm{T}\ast\leftthreetimes\ast1/100}$<\TEX> ( Gt = Total task weight, mathrm{T} = Task Weight, \leftthreetimes= Criticality ) Thirdly, In order to support to managing for the design projects, we set up an application system, which is graphically planning and implementing a complex undertaking. It is helpful to make the control of a project easy. The DPMS(Design Project Management System), which has two sub system. One is Project Screening System(PSS), and another Project Managing System(PMS). In PMS, we divided the design project into three modules; Project Planning, Project Implementation, and Project Evaluation. As a result, the DPMS will contribute to supply the control of a project easily and effectively. Also teams are used for making decisions and taking action with the DPMS. But we need to get further studies on the relationships between the whole project and its tasks.

Background: Stopping medical treatment by tuberculosis (TB) patients prior to completing treatment period is a major concern in private hospitals. We evaluated the impact of public-private mix (PPM) project on increasing treatment success rate of TB in a private tertiary hospital in Korea. Methods: Starting in February 2009, TB patients treated at Dankook University Hospital received health education and case monitoring activities by specially trained public health nurses (PPM project). On a retrospective basis, we reviewed medical records and compared the treatment outcome of TB patients treated under the PPM project (PPM group) to patients treated without the PPM project (control group) between January 2008 and June 2010. In addition, we also evaluated the risk factors treatment non-completion. Results: The number of patients in the PPM group and control group were 123 (85 pulmonary TB and 38 extrapulmonary TB) and 146 (101 pulmonary TB and 45 extra-pulmonary TB), respectively. The PPM group had demographic and clinical findings comparable to those of control group. The PPM group showed a significantly higher treatment success rate (93.5%) compared to the control group (77.9%). However, development of complications, proximity to the hospital, and presence of co-morbid disease did not influence the treatment success rate. Conclusion: The PPM project was effective at increasing the TB treatment success rate. An effort to improve and to expand the PPM project is needed in private Korean hospitals.
