In this paper, we design and implement an expert system for diagnosing ADHD. As a result of the analysis with DSM-IV-TR, the ADHD diagnostic criteria are changed according to the age group. With this analyzed diagnostic, objects and their values are set and rules are created. We design a diagnostic system consisting of 'ADHD diagnostic system engine' and 'user query response program'. The ADHD diagnostic system engine is a rule-based reasoning engine that is implemented in the Prolog language and receives INPUT from the user query response program. By INPUT, the rule is executed based on the ADHD diagnostic criteria and the OUTPUT is sent back to the 'user query response program' by inferring the diagnostic result. The 'user query response program' is implemented in the Python language and serves as an interface for handling conversation with the user. The bridge between 'ADHD diagnostic system engine' and 'user query response program' is performed through the Pyswip library. As a result, the ADHD Diagnostic Expert System will help you plan your treatment with reduced diagnostic costs and use-complexity.

A piecewise-linear system is utilized to model the offshore mooring system. The approximated piecewise-linear restoring force is obtained to be compared with the analytically derived restoring force of a mooring system. Two systems are compared to verify the applicability of the piecewise-linear system to evaluate responses of the mooring system. Using the piecewise-linear system, the response behaviors of mooring systems are examined under various excitations. Nonlinearity of the system and effects of both system and excitation parameters are intensively examined. System responses are identified mainly by observing Poincare maps. The mooring system is found to have various types of responses such as regular harmonic, subharmonic and complex nonlinear behaviors, including chaos by utilizing a piecewise-linear system. Various values of parameters are applied to determine the effects of parameters upon system responses. Response domains are determined by establishing parametric maps.

The purpose of this study is to find out how any organizational response or dispute-related consulting has a significant impact on management performance before or during a dispute over a construction subcontract dispute. In this study, multiple regression models were used to analyze the impact on consulting performance. According to the result of the analysis, the positive effects on the overall external consulting effect is influenced by five variables such as financial values, increase of the number of disputes, construction of response system by contents, construction of response system in each period, dispute response external response system. The original business operators were also more likely to be affected by internal activities of conflict response companies and the extent to which external response systems were established. This means that the supply and demand service provider's business environment is relatively poor, forcing it to be lower than the internal and external activities and influences of the original business operators of the conglomerates.

Objectives: This study evaluated the response in Daegu, Korea to the first wave of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic according to a public health emergency response model. Methods: After an examination of the official data reported by the city of Daegu and the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as a literature review and advisory meetings, we chose a response model. Daegu's responses were organized into 4 phases and evaluated by applying the response model. Results: In phase 1, efforts were made to block further transmission of the virus through preemptive testing of a religious group. In phase 2, efforts were concentrated on responding to mass infections in high-risk facilities. Phase 3 involved a transition from a high-intensity social distancing campaign to a citizen participation-based quarantine system. The evaluation using the response model revealed insufficient systematic preparation for a medical surge. In addition, an incorporated health-related management system and protection measures for responders were absent. Nevertheless, the city encouraged the participation of private hospitals and developed a severity classification system. Citizens also played active roles in the pandemic response by practicing social distancing. Conclusions: This study employed the response model to evaluate the early response in Daegu to the COVID-19 pandemic and revealed areas in need of improvement or maintenance. Based on the study results, creation of a systematic model is necessary to prepare for and respond to future public health emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic.

In this paper, the task assignment strategy considering communication delay and the priority of distributed tasks is proposed for the real-time network system in order to maximize the utilization of the system. For the task assignment strategy, the relationship among priority of tasks in network nodes, the calculation time of each task, and the end-to-end response time including the network delay is formulated firstly. Then, the task assignment strategy using the genetic algorithm is proposed to optimize the utilization of the system considering the LCM(Least Common Multiple) period. The effectiveness of proposed strategy is proven by the simulation for estimating the performance such as the utilization and the response time of the system in case of changing the number of tasks and the number of network nodes.

This paper presents the parameter design method for the desired time response of hydraulic track motor system of an industrial excavator. The dynamic response depends upon many component parameters such as motor displacement, spring constant and various valve coefficients. Most of them are to be determined to obtain the desired response while some parameters are fixed, or discrete for the off-the-shelf type components. The parameters might be selected through repeated simulations of the system once the system is mathematically represented. This paper, however, presents optimization technique to select two parameters using a parameter optimization technique. The variational approach is applied to the system equations which are represented as state equations and from those system equations derived are the adjoint equations. The gradients for each parameter also are formed for the iterations.

A load sharing algorithm is one of the important factors in computer system. In sender-initiated load sharing algorithms, when a distributed system becomes to heavy system load, it is difficult to find a suitable receiver because most processors have additional tasks to send. The sender continues to send unnecessary request messages for load transfer until a receiver is found while the system load is heavy. Because of these unnecessary request messages it results in inefficient communications, low cpu utilization, and low system throughput. To solve these problems, we propose a self-adjusting evolutionary algorithm for improved sender-initiated load sharing in distributed systems. This algorithm decreases response time and increases acceptance rate. Compared with the conventional sender-initiated load sharing algorithms, we show that the proposed algorithm performs better.

A method to investigate the design variable tolerance effects on the variances of the response, the characteristics, and the performance of a mechanical system is presented in this paper. The Monte-Carlo method has been conventionally employed to achieve such goals. However, the Monte-Carlo method has some serious drawbacks related to the computation time and the consistent solution convergence. To resolve the drawbacks of the method, a method employing sensitivity information is proposed. Sensitivity equations for a mechanical system are obtained analytically by differentiating the multi-body formulation with respect to a design variable. By using the chain rule along with the sensitivity information, the variances of the response, the characteristics, and the performance of a dynamic system can be calculated.

In this paper, the magnitude of undershoot and overshoot in a prototype second order system with one positive real zero is computed by the analytic methods. Also, it will be shown that the peak times of the undershoot and overshoot can be calculated using the impulse and step response of the second order system. Three different cases are investigated: underdamped(p<ζ<1), critically damped(ζ=1) and overdamped(ζ>1) cases. We deal with the undamped(ζ=0) case as a special case of the underdamped. And a compensation method is proposed to reduce undershoots of the nonmininmun phase system using feedforward compensator.
