The present study aims to monitor three of the community empowerment projects implemented as part of the community central revitalization projects in Yeongwol. We used an established indicator (i.e., quantitative evaluation) as well as an interview (i.e., qualitative evaluation) throughout the monitoring process. The PM (project manager) committee members, consisting of six interdisciplinary experts, carried out the monitoring from $24^{th}$ of October until the $26^{th}$ of November 2018. We categorized the results of the monitoring into the aspects of needs, software, and hardware, and analyzed them as follows: First, although the locals were willing to take part in programs, they were in overall not well informed about the ongoing programs and the program that suits their needs the most. The service organization should therefore actively publicize the program and provide sufficient information about it .Second, instead of a one-off program, the locals should be empowered to take over the program eventually and develop it as a local business model. Last, the locals from the center as well as the outskirts of Yeongwol should organize a learning net, collaboratively develop a further program, and assess its effectiveness by employing a thorough monitoring system.

This paper proposes a new numerical approach to model geocell reinforced soils, where the geocell is described as membrane elements and the complex interaction between geocell and soil is realized by coupling their degrees of freedom. The effectiveness and robustness of this approach are demonstrated using two examples, i.e., a geocell-reinforced foundation and a large scale retaining wall project. The first example validates the approach against established solutions through a comprehensive parametrical study to understand the influence of geocell on the improvement of bearing capacity of foundations. The study results show that reducing the geocell pocket size has a strong effect on improving the bearing capacity. In addition, when the aspect ratio maintains the same value, the bearing capacity improvement with increasing geocell height is insignificant. Comparing with the field monitoring and measurement in the project, the second example investigates the application of the approach to practical engineering projects. This paper provides a practically feasible and efficient modelling approach, where no explicit interface or contact is required. This allows geocell reinforced soils in large scale project can be effectively modelled where the mechanism for complex geocell-soil interaction can be explicitly observed.

The defense IT master plan is the plan for promoting defense informatization and is established by the Ministry of National Defense every five years. In addition, an implementation plan has been established in accordance with the master plan every year to promote the informatization project. However, since there is no systematic methodology to check and analyze the master plan comprehensively, it is difficult to judge whether the goals suggested in the master plan are achieved, and continuous monitoring of the project is limited. This study proposes a concept and framework for defense IT investment management and proposes a methodology for examining and analyzing the progress of the defense IT plan by referring to the U.S. Department of Defense's IT Plan and the performance management structure of the national IT master plan. As a methodology for managing defense IT investment, we propose an IT investment management code system from the perspective of an IT portfolio and verify its applicability through case studies. The results of this study are expected to improve the defense IT performance management system and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the defense IT project.

Data conversion refers to the process of extracting the data existing in the existing system, that is, the past data accumulated by the old information system or other methods and transferring it to the improved table of the new system. The person in charge of data conversion refers to the entire process of converting to the final destination table according to the rules designed/planned in advance. In most cases, data conversion design should be consider when the old system replace or the data of another existing system is converted and applied to a newly constructed information system. The goal of data conversion is to understand the current database system of operating environment, understand the characteristics of the DBMS in use, maintain the optimal database structure, and make the new system perform at its best. Data conversion methods are largely divide into a method using a tool and a conversion method using a program preparation. In this paper, we examine the advantages and disadvantages of the data conversion method, and try to derive the problems of the existing data conversion method. Based on this, an improved data conversion method for the system upgrade project was proposed, and verified through a questionnaire of an IT expert to prove its effectiveness

Technology transfer (TT) has been defined as the shared responsibility between the source and the destination for ensuring that technology is accepted and at least understood by someone with the knowledge and resources to apply and/or use the technology. The adoption of TT in construction industries is necessary for economic growth to occur in developing countries such as Thailand. This process should provide numerous benefits for the host sector in areas such as increased productivity, enhancement of product quality, cost savings, improvements in market share and entry to new markets. However, there are many factors, which may impact on the TT process and its subsequent outcomes for Thai construction firms and individuals, including, the transfer environment, learning environment, transferor characteristics and transferee characteristics. The performance and interaction of these enablers will influence the degree of value added to the local construction sectors in areas such as economic advancement, knowledge advancement and project performance. This paper presents a conceptual framework for international TT that accommodates the numerous factors believed to impact on the processes effectiveness. Through a Pilot Study, where 27 industry professionals from Thailand were interviewed, the significant factors which impact on the TT process have been identified along with the strength of interrelationship between individual and groups of factors. Future research seeks to target a greater sample of respondents with the view to validate the conceptual model and apply it on a number of large Thai projects where international TT was incorporated into the project agreement.

The purpose of this study is to propose a guideline to help the client and bidder operate the BIM project in the domestic road field. As BIM design is mandatory in the construction field, documents disclosed by the ordering agency must essentially include procedures and step-by-step requirements to support BIM. The purpose of this study is to propose the structure and components of the guidelines that practitioners need practically by utilizing the currently announced road field guidelines. The guidelines are analyzed based on the procurement documents that were pre-emptively shared overseas, and supplemented according to the domestic situation. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the revised guidelines is confirmed through expert consultation. This study aims to contribute to creating an environment in which construction practitioners who have no experience in BIM project can efficiently carry out BIM projects.

Technology developments accelerate the change of the society and companies with unparalleled pace, so large scaled projects are in progress urgently. Large scaled projects deal with high technologies and massive tasks, and these need enormous labor force and costs, it is necessary to manage strategic conflicts based on human psychology and complex system theory. However, traditional management plan fails to suggest practical mechanism for successful projects. We study failure cases and key elements, leadership for projects, and suggest project management plan with psychological and behavioral economy approach by focusing on complexity and conflict structure on large scaled projects. Project behavior management plan, suggested in this study, is designed with phased strategy and practice to solve the failure of large scaled IT projects originally and preemptively. We verified the effectiveness of behavior management plan suggested by investigating experts and working groups, and stable projects are to be progressed with introducing this plan on large-scaled projects.
