The paper describes the development of a decomposition based multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) method that coordinates each of disciplinary subspace optimization (DSO). A multidisciplinary design system considered in the present study is decomposed into a number of subspaces based on their own design objective and constraints associated with engineering discipline. The coupled relations among subspaces are identified by interdisciplinary design variables. Each of subsystem level optimization, that is DSO would be performed in parallel, and the system level coordination is determined by the first order optimal sensitivities of subspace objective functions with respect to interdisciplinary design variables. The central of the present work resides on the formulation of system level coordination strategy and its capability in decomposition based MDO. A fluid-structure coupled design problem is explored as a test-bed to support the proposed MDO method.

With the advance of computer and communication technologies, a lot of virtual schools provide web-based classes that provide learning environments out of temporal and spatial constraints and many research works on the web-based classes have been proposed. Various techniques are required to build the virtual schools efficiently. One of them is the scheme for transaction management. However, existing transaction management schemes have inappropriate features for supporting web-based classes. In this paper, we propose a new locking-based transaction processing protocol that satisfies the requirements after presenting the requirements for transaction management to support web-based classes. In the protocol, a new method, called mark, is adopted to satisfy the requirements. The proposed protocol also eliminates unnecessary delays or abortions and thus, the proposed protocol can improve the performance of database systems.

This paper presents hull form design details and performance characteristics of the SWATH ship 'SEON JIN' built as an underwater test support ship. The hull form is developed systematically varing sets of 11 form parameters which define a unique hull under waterline. Using this geometry variation scheme we have generated a number of alternatives and selected the final hull which fulfills the design objectives and matches the design constraints. After selecting the final hull form we have investigated performances thoroughly through model tests, and confirmed through sea trials that the performance goals be achieved.

General purpose operating systems are Increasingly being used for serving time-sensitive applications. These applications require soft real-time characteristics from the kernel and from other system-level services. In this paper, we explore various operating systems techniques needed to support time-sensitive applications and describe the design of MUSMA(Multi-level Scheduler for Multimedia Application). MUSMA is a framework that combination of user-level top scheduler and kernel-level bottom scheduler. We develope MUSMA in linux environment and it's performance is evaluated. Experiment result shows that it is possible to satisfy the constraints of multimedia in a general purpose operating system without significantly compromising the performance of non-realtime applications.

In this paper, we design and implement a query processor of real-time main memory database systems, which reflect the characteristics of main memory database systems and satisfy timing constraints. The proposed query processor manages real-time data that has timing constraint by exploiting meta database. It supports CLI in order to make application programs. It also supports extended CLI and stored CLI. The former can be expressed the Information on real-time transaction. The latter is designed to support frequently processed transaction. The proposed query processor is implemented as query processor of real-time database management systems. We Present performance evaluation results that illustrate ratio of transaction, which satisfy deadline are increased by the query processing ability of system and the efficient management of real-time data.

Off-line 6-DOF simulation program for store separation analysis has been developed. The developed program enables to predict a trajectory of a store from the database which was constructed by wind tunnel testing or CFD analysis. The flow angle method was applied to the program for predicting aerodynamic coefficients from the database and the ejector forces and constraints were enabled to incorporate the equations of motion for computing the trajectory. Using the program, the trajectories were calculated and the results are compared with the CTS results.

The present study provides some extensions over a recent work in Won (2011) which investigates properties of the static newsvendor problem under a schedule involving progressive multiple discounts under the assumption that demand is given exogenously. Khouja (1995, 1996) formulated the extended versions over the classical newsvendor model with various discount policies including all-units discount and/or multiple discounts and found that the extended newsvendor models with discount schedules yield higher optimal expected profits than the classical newsvendor model with no-discounts. In this study, we establish a robust conjecture as a stronger statement than Khouja's findings with regard to the general relationship among the expected profits of newsvendor models in the sense that the conjecture holds for every order quantity as well as the optimal order quantity. The conjecture encourages the newsvendor facing quantity discounts to safely implement her own discounts policy to customer or accept quantity discounts offered by the supplier even if the optimal order quantity cannot be ordered due to additional restrictions such as budget or warehouse capacity constraints because the newsvendor models with quantity discounts always yield higher expected profit than the classic newsvendor model without quantity discounts regardless of the order quantity. Results from wide experiments with various probability distributions of demand strongly support our conjecture.

It is usual for energy consumption in accordance with facing and sitting direction of tower-type apartments to be calculated by the official statistics or computer simulation. Previous studies for energy consumption appear to be very limited due to the dependence on flat type of apartment. Acknowledging these constraints, an empirical study for a tower type apartment was conducted to demonstrate how a on-site indoor temperature measurement in spring can be used to assist in estimating the total energy consumption in terms of facing and sitting orientation specific settings. The results indicate that maximum temperature difference in spring was identified as $1.16^{\circ}C$ between south and eastern direction. It is known that raising $1^{\circ}C$ indoor temperature require 7% more energy consumption than normal. The $1.16^{\circ}C$ difference means that sitting direction of tower type apartment is a crucial explanatory variable as unit of analysis for energy consumption. It was demonstrated that the indoor temperature could be used effectively as an indicator to estimate energy consumption among various sitting direction of tower type apartments. It is anticipated that this research output could be used as a valuable reference to support more scientific and objective decision-making for facing and sitting orientation of tower type apartments.

An automatic pipe routing system is proposed and implemented. Generally, the pipe routing design as a part of the shipbuilding process requires a considerable number of man hours due to the complexity which comes from physical and operational constraints and the crucial influence on outfitting construction productivity. Therefore, the automation of pipe routing design operations and processes has always been one of the most important goals for improvements in shipbuilding design. The proposed system is applied to a pipe routing design in the engine room space of a commercial ship. The effectiveness of this system is verified as a reasonable form of support for pipe routing design jobs. The automatic routing result of this system can serve as a good basis model in the initial stages of pipe routing design, allowing the designer to reduce their design lead time significantly. As a result, the design productivity overall can be improved with this automatic pipe routing system.
