LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) is a database and universal standard for identifying laboratory and clinical test results that is developed and maintained by Regenstrief Institute. Exchanging laboratory test results is one of the most important area in EHR system and the terminology for laboratory test results has to be standardized. In this paper, we present a pre-preprocessing tool that converts a local database in healthcare organizations to LMOF format LMOF format is required by RELMA and our work helps mapping laboratory test results to LOINC very efficiently Our proposed tool provided user friendly interface and 15% keyword reduction in RELMA search compared to no pre-processing RELMA search.

This paper describes a concept-based question analysis to analyze concept which is more important than keyword for the accurate answer extraction. Our idea is that we can extract correct answers from various paragraphs with different structures when we use well-defined concepts because concepts occurred in questions of same answer type are similar. That is, we will analyze the syntactic and semantic role of each word or phrase in a question in order to extract more relevant documents and more accurate answer in them. For each answer type, we define a concept frame which is composed of concepts commonly occurred in that type of questions and analyze user's question by filling a concept frame with a word or phrase. Empirical results show that our concept-based question analysis can extract more accurate answer than any other conventional approach. Also, concept-based approach has additional merits that it is language universal model, and can be combined with arbitrary conventional approaches.

This study has comprehensively summarized existing research on the technology for evaluating software quality and its standardization. Based on this, the study developed a model for evaluating software quality via needs assessment. Also, in terms of the trend toward international standardization of software quality evaluation, this study has consulted details relating to the combining of two documents on such intranational standardization as the ISO/IEC 9126 and ISO/IEC 14598 and enacting them as a single document, the ISO/IEC 25000. Further, the purpose of this study is to develop a model for evaluating mobile RFID quality based on recognition of the characteristics of each area, after taking into consideration the demands made from the perspective of the user. Another purpose is to improve the quality of mobile RFID by developing a testing method for mobile RFID from the perspective of the evaluator.

Based on ontologies, semantic Web services enable the discovery, selection, and composition. OWL-S is a do facto standard ontology for describing semantics of Web services. Due to the difficulty of the OWL-S grammar, the teaming curve for constructing OWL-S description manually can be steep. This paper presents an efficient method for generating OWL-S descriptions from UML diagrams, which are widely used for software design and development. The proposed method is based on UML profiles to generate an OWL-S ontology from sequence or activity diagrams, which represent the behavior of a business process. Specifically, an XMI file extracted from UML diagrams is transformed into an OWL-S description via an XSLT script. Experimental results with a large volume of UML diagrams show that the proposed method deals with the control flow of complex processes and is superior to previous methods.

The view mechanism provides users with appropriate portions of database through data filtering and integration. In the Web era where information proliferates, the view concept is also useful for XML, a future standard for data exchange on the Web. This paper proposes a method of implementing XML views called XML view indexing, whereby XML view xv is represented as an XML view index(XVI) which is a structure containing the identifiers of xv's underlying XML elements as well as the information on xv. Since XVI for xv stores just the identifiers of the XML elements but not the elements themselves, when a user requests to retrieve xv, its XVI should be materialized against xv's underlying XML documents. Also an efficient algorithm to incrementally maintain consistency of XVI given a update of xv's underlying XML documents is required. This paper proposes and implements data structures and algorithms for XML view indexing. The performance experiments on XML view indexing reveal that it outperforms view recomputation for repeated accesses to the view, and requires as much as about 30 times less storage space compared to XML view materialization though the latter takes less time for repeated accesses to the view due to no need of materialization.

Search results of XML keyword search are defined generally as the most specific elements containing all query keywords in the literature. The labels of XML elements and semantic information such as ontology, conceptual model, thesaurus, and so on, are used to improve the preciseness of the search results. This paper presents a hierarchical index for an efficient XML keyword query processing on the condition that returnable search concepts are defined and users' query concepts can be interpreted with the help of the semantic information. The hierarchical index separately stores the XML elements containing a keyword on the basis of the hierarchical relations of the concepts that the XML elements belong to, and makes it possible to obtain least common ancestors, which are candidates for the search results, with selectively reading the elements belonging to the concepts relevant to query concepts and without considering all the combinations of the elements having been read. This paper deals with how to organize the hierarchical index and how to process XML keyword queries with the index. In our experiment with the DBLP XML document and the XML documents in the INEX2003 test set, the hierarchical index worked well.

A long-distance education method using the computational environment has been developed and implemented for quite some time. However, there has been some difficulty in the simulation of face-to-face instruction due to limitations in performance of the computers and the networks. Continued development of multimedia technologies has now made it possible to simulate face-to-face instruction, recording the teachers' instructions in the form of a screen dump. In this paper, we propose a system that allows the teacher to make loaming materials available on the Web using Window Media Technology(WMT). This technology also allows remote site users to view the contents at their convenience. A media encoder acquires the lessons and stores them as moving pictures. The lessons are displayed on the screen as the teacher explains them. The learning materials are stored in a Windows media file format, the file is stored on a lecture server and provided to the user using a streaming method in real time. The users can view the contents on the Web without requiring a special player. The proposed system consists of a lecture writer module, a lecture server module and a lecture client module.

Internet becomes absolutely necessary tools due to rapid progress of information technology. Educational correspondence abount an age of information demand is a education focused on a learner and remote education based on information technology. WBI(Web Based Instruction) is a formation that remotly educate a learner using web, possible mutual reaction between instructor and learner, submint various studying material, has a good point to overcome spatial restriction. Internal and external standardization working is accelerated and recently XML security studies are activated using XML which is next generation web standard document format. And XML electronic signature raise interworking between digital signature systems used by various field of using XML document. Using these merit and complementing defect are main contents that users have to pay about Certification service to get CA certificate from 2004 june. This paper propose multiplex Certification remote education agent system using XML digital signature to satisfy security requirement.

In this paper, we realized a system that converts the character images of the printed Korean alphabet (Hangul) to the editable text documents by using the black and white CCD camera, We were able to abstract the contours information of the character which is based on the structural character by using the boundary tracing technique that is strong to the noise on the character recognition. By using the contours information, we recognized the horizontal vowels and vertical vowels of the character image and classify the character into the six patterns. After that, the character is divided to the unit of the consonant and vowel. The vowels are recognized by using the maximum length projection. The separated consonants are recognized by comparing the inputted pattern with the standard pattern that has the phase information of the boundary line change. We realized a system that the recognized characters are inputted to the word editor with the editable KS Hangul completion type code.

In this paper, we design and implement a multiple-view VoiceXML editor to improve editing efficiency of the VoiceXML. The VoiceXML multiple-view Editor uses a MVC framework to support multiple views and paradigm. Our multiple-view editor consists of Model. View and Controller using MVC framework. A model, core data structure. is constructed of abstract syntax tree and abstract grammar. A view. user interface. is formalized in unparsing rules and unparser. A controller. to control model and view. is made of command interpreter and tree handler. The VoiceXML multiple-view editor overcomes a drawbacks of existing XML editors by showing document structure and context concurrently. as well as document flows. Our VoiceXML multiple-view editor. which MVC framework has been applied, provides various editing views concurrently to users. Thereby. it supports efficient and convenient editing environments for voice-web documents to users and it guarantees transparency of editors. as various views have a same consistent model.
