Because economic depreciation includes some disciplines like economics, accounting and industrial engineering, the terminologies concerned are selected and arranged. The economic depreciation is defined with which the cases that occur when economic depreciation is measured are considered. Two major methods of the measurement of economic depreciation are reviewed these are Hulten-Wykoff's approach and Bureau of Economic Analysis of U.S.A. methodology. In its application in Korea the expected problems are presented. This paper also shows that it is rarely possible. Therefore Under the restricted condition a method to measure the economic deprection is suggested in Korea manufacturing sector.

The inventory problem of the repairable items is modeled as a queueing network for the purpose of determining the number of spares in a multi-echelon repair system subject to stochastic failure. In this paper, we are considering a finite number of repairman at each base and the depot. After repair job has completed, the repaired items are returned to the base where they have originated. For the system, we identify the distribution of the total number of failed items which belongs to a base and develope a method to find spare inventory levels of the repairable items at each base to satisfy a specified minimum fill rate.

This paper is to maximize the reliability subject to certain constraints on amounts of resources available for control of the parameters. The lagrange multiplier method is used to optimize t-th lognormal stress-lognormal strength problem. This optimization problem can be reduced to a search problem in one variable. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the optimization problem.

This paper deals with a single machine scheduling problem with a quadratic penalty function of completion times. The objective is to find a optimal sequence which minimizes the total penalty. A new type of node elimination procedure and precedence relation is developed that determines the ordering between adjacent jobs and is incorporated into a branch and bound algorithm. In addition, modified penalty function is considered and numerical examples are provided to test the effectiveness of the optimum algorithm.

In conventional function analysis, the function values are evaluated by experts, which are treated as exact values. For many cases, it is often difficult to evaluate the function values of a certain subject because the criteria of evaluation are very vague. This paper presents a new function evaluation method using fuzzy set. The purpose of the method is to minimize the difference among experts by recognizing an intersection point of membership function as a representative value.

A new interactive multiobjective decision making technique, which is called the fuzzy sequential proxy optimization technique, has been proposed. This technique is the revised version the sequential proxy optimization technique that the decision-maker's marginal rates of substitution is interpreted as type of L-R fuzzy numbers. It used to the square of normalized scalar product as the doptimalilry condition. However, this technique ignores the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement of marginal rates of substitution. Also, it have a shortcoming that can be only applied over three objective functions. In this paper, considering the imprecise nature of a decision-maker's judgement, we presents an interactive fuzzy decision-making method on the basis of the decision-maker's MRS presented through the use of five types of membership functions including non-linear functions. FORTRAN programs that run in conversational mode are developed to implement man-machine interactive procedure.

This paper is aimed to study the standby redundant system with the relay of parallel structure, by making use of the character of standby system, which reliability is higher than parallel system's if the relay has higher reliability than a certain level. By assigning the low-priced relay to the subsystem, this method increases the relay reliability, optimizes the standby redundant system reliability without violating the restrictions, and consequently reduces the cost.

Two different algorithms for traveling salesman problem(TSP) will be discussed. One is the engineering approach to the TSP. The other one is Branch-and-Bound algorithm to take advantage of the special structure of combinational problems. Also a generalization of TSP will be presented.

Some problems to assess the safety of automated man-machine system are studied in many ways. The difficulty occurred in this system is the vagueness of human behavior. Fuzzy set theory is used to assess the human behavior in safety analysis. The unsafe behavior listed top 10 in accident statistics would be explained as the factors of human vagueness. Three cases are considered, which consist of man-machine system as man-man, man-machine, machine-machine types. For the design of safe task, using characteristics of work performance, each motion cycle time is required to know the rate of learning. Approach of human behavior to the standard motion means more safe motion. It is important to design the works as to minimize the time performance to the standard motion's, which utilize the control of risk potential with easy. In that process, use of fuzzy set theory is appropriate to analyze the human behavior to identify its vagueness.

An important problem to be carried into a plan on the occasion for introduction of TQC is to establish the clear-cut policy and workable system on QC. In connection with escalation the product liability in recent days, especially, a point to he considered in relation the real state of enterprise, it seems likely to be difficult an effective performance without distribution of the definite duality function to each departments in the company, and to define the quality function, it should be educed and coordinated under agreement organization wide participation and conciliation. In this paper, we have tried to have a more effective graft the European style QC on the oriental enterprise, by means of presenting a model that manages synthetically a way of deployment the fundamental factors affecting quality, and establishing the control subject in each function unit.

The performance analysis and capacity planning of Service Control Point which is real time response system is studied. The system is modeled by multiclass open queueing network. The analytical method is used to solve the queueing network. The solution of the model has product form solution. The focus of this paper is to investigate the capacity of system under the restriction of response time. To get the reasonable capacities, nonlinear programming problem is formulated and is solved by GINO. And the simulation model using SLAM II is formulated.

The first national QC Circle Convention sponsored by Industry Advancement Administration in 1975 was the beginning of employees group activity from a national point view. Subsequently some events such as the first nationwide Factory Seamaul activity small Group Convention, which was supervised by the ministry of Trading and Industry and Factory Seamanulundong promotion Center, paved the way for proliferation of the group activity through all kinds of manufacturing. Although since November 1982 these two conventions has been united, many problem have been disclosed that are against the basic principle more or less. Worker's small group activity is, essentially, a trouble shooting oriented voluntary small group within their working place to improve the surroundings creatively. In practice, however, many groups are so typical and so impetuous of the material effect that it is worried to be inclined to outform rather than contents. Effective small group activities are presumed to he successful only with labor management cooperation on the basis of human-oriented management philosophy. The small group activities are also prevalent in service sector. More derivative methods have been developed and more members are willingly participating in training programs. The small group which is basically a horizontal organization unit, promotes communication within the whole organization. In consideration of the social circumstances and traditions, the flexible model of the small group activities suitable to the corporate environment, will contribute to industrial development.

This paper is concerned with marginal analysis in the detailed estimation method. In a broad sense all estimates are marginal estimates in as much as they are concerned with creating changes from a current course of action. Only after a detailed ostinato is made can the engineering realize and exploit the advantages of marginal analysis. Marginal analysis is good tool for nonlinear break-even analysis adapted real world, and much more information and efficiency of CVP(Cost-Volumn-Profit) are provided with marginal analysis.
