Contemporary architecture tends to deconstruct modern architecture based on rationalization just like reductionism and functionalism and secedes from it. It means change from mechanical to organic and ecological view of the world. According to these changes, consideration of a compositive relationship presented variety and complexity in architecture. Thus, the modern speculation based on rationalism cannot provide an alternative interpretation about complicated architectural phenomena. At this point in time, the purpose of this study is to investigate the possibilities of the fractal as an alternative tool of analysis and design in contemporary architecture. In this study, two major aspects are discussed. First, the fractal concepts just like 'fractal dimension', 'box-counting dimension' and 'fractal rhythm' can be applied to analysis in architecture. Second, the fractal formative principles just like 'scaling', 'superimposition trace', 'distortion' and 'repetition' can be applied to design in architecture. Fractal geometry similar to nature's patterned order can provide endless possibilities for analysis and design in architecture. Therefore further study of fractal geometry should be conducted synthetically from now on.

As a tool for strain measurement to work with screw driven or hydraulic material test systems, in which mechanical vibration is inherent, SSDG (Speckle Strain/Displacement Gage), ESP (Electronic Speckle Photography) and its 3-dimension version SDSP are evaluated for the theory and practical appliance. Through tension test of steel strips, their validity and shortcomings are examined. As the results, it has been shown that, although SSDG and ESP provide direct measurement of in-plane strain in one direction, they are so sensitive to the out-plane displacement. On the other hand, SDSP which is aided with DIC (Digital Image Correlation) technique to trace the movement of the speckles provides not only in-plane 2-dimensional displacement field, but also out-of-plane displacement simultaneously. However, because the DIC is time-consuming, not automated yet and it needs post-processing to evaluate strain from the displacement field, SDSP appears to be not adequate as a real time sensor.

Distributed Object Systems are very complex. So, it is difficult to see overall relationship among objects participated in the system. Moreover the performance tuning or maintenance are also important issues of it. So, it needs a way to view the system with low-cost and an efficient method. One of solutions is a visualization tool or system. In this paper, we proposed a tracing facility for Java-based distributed object system, especially RM(Remote Method Invocation). Our up-coming visualization system will use two phase hybrid post-mortem/on-the-fly technique. To support it, the fundamental tracing part must have some flexible and dynamic mechanism. The main idea of our tracing technique is the Plug-in Sensor Model(PSM). The relationship between tracing (monitoring) part and visualization part is closely related. So, we considered the appropriate factors for visualization. We developed 'Traced RMI(TRMI)'. For more precise visualization of a working system, the casuality of events has to be preserved. TRMI can support global event ordering.

Continuation power flow is a tool that can trace the path of the solution from the base stable solution. However, the base stable solution cannot be calculated when the initial system load is too large to operate at a stable operating point. This case is called as unsolvable case. This paper presents implementation of the optimal load shedding algorithm on continuation power flow. It performs steady-state analysis of power systems at unsolvable case that can occur in contingency analysis. Numerical simulation on 20-bus test system demonstrates that the continuation power flow applying the optimal load shedding algorithm is robust at solvable and unsolvable cases.

The purpose of this study is to explore an inquisitive and innovative approach to structure and form, Calatrava's morphogenetic mechanism and to trace the ideas behind his working methods and his theoretical preoccupations. The bridges and buildings of S. Calatrava possess a breathtaking rhythm and of them some are designed to expand and contract like living organisms. The analogy Calatrava has used as a creative tool to mutate human bodies into arcing roof forms and bridge suspensions is introduced to illustrate the morphogenetic process. At the same time, the analysis used developing how to design frame structures foldable with brilliant mathematical solution is also investigated. Consequently, the potentialities of Calatrava's morphogenetic mechanism to invent new systems are generated by methodological hypothesis; analysis and analogy.

This paper designs the performance analysis layer for the various performance analysis of parallel programs using event expressions are similar to the normal program language to analyze the events which display a dynamic state exchange of a program. The event expressions suggest operations for overloading and functions which are needed in performance analysis, such as a filtering operation, data format translation functions, performance analysis, static functions, and etc. By using the event expressions, the programmer can modify the event trace data to analyze the performance and analyze more easily and variously than the pre-developed tools.

To assist developing robust multithreaded software, we develop a thread monitoring system for multithreaded Java programs, which can trace or monitor running threads and synchronization. We design a monitoring system which has options to select interesting threads and synchronizations. Using this tool, programmers can monitor only interesting threads and synchronization in more details by selecting options. It also provides profile information after execution, which summarizes behavior of running threads and synchronizations during execution. We implement the system based on code inlining, and presents some experimental results.

This paper describes a Transient Stability Education & Training Software that can make the students or beginners easily be familiar with power system stability problems. The Major objective of this study is to provide, for educational purpose, an interactive computer graphic tool that can facilitate power system study in highly user-friendly environment. The proposed software is designed to have the particular features such as follow : simulation with animation of the rotor, useful interactive scheme, various graphic illustrations related to critical factors of the stability, trace function including revival simulation with different processing speed. With these features, the software could be suitable for educational and training of students/beginners in power system stability engineering field.

Preliminary studies on the seasonal variations in abundance of stable isotopes were carried out on the snow and rainwater samples from urban area. Stable isotopes and other geochemical data as a tool for characterizing the seasonality and source of pollutants were examined in study areas, especially to trace the sources of sulfate in precipitation and to distinguish sulfates of natural and anthropogenic origin.
