  • The importance of performance-based design feedback is being emphasized when it comes to the potential impact that affects all the lifecycle of the building. However, the latency and disconnection of domain expert in the sector of AEC/FM remain current obstacles between design and performance feedback. It is hard to utilize performance feedback information for design exploration and support design decision making during the conceptual phase of design. Using parametric design, this paper proposes various design alternatives from a set of rules and constraints defined by algorithms for the geometric configurations of an Office Building. A Building Performance Analysis (BPA) was to developed using Autodesk® Revit® 2019 which integrates Autodesk® Green Building Studio® to predict its sufficient daylighting conditions of the LEED v4's Daylighting Autonomy (DA). The parametric-based performance feedback of this study outlines potential design improvements for further exploration in application to the early design process.

  • The Army's engineers are carrying out a range of operations using various equipment, of which, artillery unit support is the representative engineering operation field. The main task of the artillery unit is to attack the enemy's center with firepower from the rear of a friendly force. The artillery must move its original position after firing several times to prevent exposure of the shooting position. This paper proposed a mathematical model and heuristic algorithm that can be used to determine the optimal allocation among engineer equipment, the team (work), and position while reflecting the constraints of the construction of an artillery position. The model proposed in this paper derived the optimal solution for the small size problems, but it takes a long time to derive the optimal solution for the problem of equipment placement of the engineer battalion and brigade scale. Although the heuristic suggested in this study does not guarantee the optimal solution, the solution could be obtained in a reasonable amount of time.

  • There have been several milestones in the history of library classification but most of the schemes failed to meet the new challenges in the organisation of information. Dr. S. R. Ranganathan tried to revolutionise the whole thinking on classificatory approach, when he devised the Colon Classification (CC) in 1933. He developed the Colon Classification scheme with a sound theoretical background based on normative principles, Five laws of Library science, canons, etc. One important feature of CC is that, its use is not confined to information storage and retrieval alone. This paper presents an over view of different editions of the CC highlighting the salient features of the editions. Further the implication of Five Laws of Library Science has been described. The authors stressed that the features of such as greater hospitality, specificity and mixed notation has paved the way to design and develop the depth schedules on various micro level subjects and so far about 130 micro schedules have been published. The impressions by the leading LIS professionals during and after Ranganathan's time have been highlighted. The authors expressed the fear that when the library world would see the complete version of the seventh edition of CC? It may be due to lack of institutional support engaging in the research or financial constraints. The authors are of the opinion that any scheme to flourish needs a sound research body to bring out the revised editions as done in the case of Dewey Decimal Classification. The relevance of the CC in the contemporary world of Librarianship is discussed. Finally concludes that CC needs to be resuscitated as it is a precious national heritage; and still a force for the management of libraries.

  • A peer-to-peer web caching has been studied recently as it can reduce the traffic converged on the server side and can support the traditional web caching model. Although the peer-to-peer web caching has the merit of having additional cache space from the local caches of peers without additional infrastructure, several constraints such as dynamic participation and local caching strategy caused by the autonomy of peers in peer-to-peer networks nay limit the performance of the peer-to-peer web caching. To overcome these limitations, we propose an efficient directory-based peer-to-peer web caching system under dynamic participation of peers. In the proposed caching system, we present new peer selection and replica management schemes by introducing the concept of the object lifetime in P2P networks. We evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed system through trace-driven simulations with a web log dataset. Simulation results show that the proposed system has higher accuracy and fewer redirection failures than the conventional directory-based P2P web caching system in feasible peer-to-peer networks.

  • Information Security System is implemented in software, hardware and FPGA device. Implementation of S/W provides high flexibility about various information security algorithm, but it has very vulnerable aspect of speed, power, safety, and performing ASIC is really excellent aspect of speed and power but don't support various security platform because of feature's realization. To improve conflict of these problems, implementation of recent FPGA device is really performed. The goal of this thesis is to design and develop a FPGA hardware accelerator for information security system. It performs as AES, SHA-256 and ECC and is controlled by the Integrated Interface. Furthermore, since the proposed Security Information System can satisfy various requirements and some constraints, it can be applied to numerous information security applications from low-cost applications and high-speed communication systems.

  • Launch control system controls the sequence for launching missile in weapon systems. This system have to generate the engagement plan, input information and launch the missile in timeliness requirement. Such a system may fail to operate correctly either due to errors in hardware and software or due to violation of timing constraints. We presented fault-tolerant ethernet for embedded real-time system like launch control system. This approach is designed to handle network faults using dual commercial-off-the-shelf(COTS) network devices. To support fault-tolerant ethernet each node is composed dual channel ethernet and designed the communication middleware for network fault detect and recovery. Especially for time-critical system, the middleware is being developed to achieve that no point of network failure shall take down or cause loss of communication to network nodes.

  • A load-following operation in APR+ nuclear plants is necessary to reduce the need to adjust the boric acid concentration and to efficiently control the control rods for flexible operation. In particular, a disproportion in the axial flux distribution, which is normally caused by a load-following operation in a reactor core, causes xenon oscillation because the absorption cross-section of xenon is extremely large and its effects in a reactor are delayed by the iodine precursor. A model predictive control (MPC) method was used to design an automatic load-following controller for the integrated thermal power level and axial shape index (ASI) control for APR+ nuclear plants. Some tracking controllers employ the current tracking command only. On the other hand, the MPC can achieve better tracking performance because it considers future commands in addition to the current tracking command. The basic concept of the MPC is to solve an optimization problem for generating finite future control inputs at the current time and to implement as the current control input only the first control input among the solutions of the finite time steps. At the next time step, the procedure to solve the optimization problem is then repeated. The support vector regression (SVR) model that is used widely for function approximation problems is used to predict the future outputs based on previous inputs and outputs. In addition, a genetic algorithm is employed to minimize the objective function of a MPC control algorithm with multiple constraints. The power level and ASI are controlled by regulating the control banks and part-strength control banks together with an automatic adjustment of the boric acid concentration. The 3-dimensional MASTER code, which models APR+ nuclear plants, is interfaced to the proposed controller to confirm the performance of the controlling reactor power level and ASI. Numerical simulations showed that the proposed controller exhibits very fast tracking responses.

  • The minimum weight design for the simply-supported eccentrically stiffened plates subjected to combined loads is studied according to the stiffening configuration. The optimal programming is accomplished by formulating the design requirements in terms of a mathematical programming problem, and by using the gradient projection algorithm. The Huber type equilibrium equation is used as the governing equation for the overall buckling. The overall buckling of stiffened plates and the local buckling of the unstiffened plate between stiffeners and the stiffeners themselves are used as behavior constraints. Results of design examples for the orthogonally stiffening case compared with those of the other study support that the present study is feasible. Design examples for the symmetrically oblique stiffening case are presented and the results indicate that a significant improvement in design efficiency may be achieved through symmetrically oblique stiffening compared to the orthogonal stiffening under the combined loading condition.

  • It is well known that software testing amounts for a significant portion of software development cost. In order to reduce the cost of software testing. a lot of researches on automated test data generation have been performed. Sophisticated tools for performing symbolic execution or solving a system of path constraints are required to support automated test data generation. Developing or purchasing those tools leads to another factor of increasing the cost involving software testing. In this paper, we propose a dynamic test data generation approach that does not depend on symbolic execution or constraint solving at all. The proposed approach extends Korel's path-oriented method to satisfy the branch coverage criterion effectively. We conducted an experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed technique with a triangle classification program to show that branch coverage can be easily achieved.

  • M&S techniques are utilized for various purposes on the national defense, and its importance is increasing than ever. For analyzing RAM (Reliability, Availability and Maintainability) of weapon system, using M&S techniques can be more effective and practical way than deterministic approach, because M&S approach can consider uncertain variables and various constraints in the ILS (Integrated Logistics support) field. For design of ILS M&S, we first set up a purpose of M&S, attributes of real system and other similar ILS M&S tool. Then, we convert real system into model which consists of mathematical formula and logical expression. In this thesis, we introduce modeling procedures of M&S that describes total life cycle of 'OO guided weapon system' and the contents proposed in this paper can provide references for developing other M&S tool.
