Software maintenance is an important and very expensive activity in software life cycle. To estimate the maintainability cost of software, many software metrics have been proposed. This paper presents the result of an experimental study to explore the relationship between maintainability and some software metrics. LCOM, RFC, DAC, and LOC are employed as metrics and time really spent for maintenance activity has been collected. In the experimental study, we have found that for some systems, the existing metrics may not be an indicator to maintenance effort, which is not consistent with our general knowledge on the relationship between them. Specifically speaking, we recognized that there should be more empirical study on the relationship between metrics and maintainability of softwares which have been developed using recent technologies such as software architecture and design pattern.

In WSN environment, the sensor nodes collect sensed data, and transmit data to the BS. BS is difficult to trust the data from unauthenticated nodes. Therefore, many papers have been proposed about the node authentication and the safety of data. In the AM-E paper, data is delivered after node authentication. In this time, the sensor nodes are directly communicated to BS the AREQ/AREP message for authentication. Therefore, the sensor nodes consume more energy for authentication. Also, noes communicate directly with the BS for authentication will have problem due to the limited energy of nodes. In this paper, the same security with AM-E is supported, Furthermore, to minimize the energy consumption, IDE based hierarchical node authentication protocol is proposed. Compared with AM-E, the number of alive nodes is increased about 39%. Thus, the entire network life time is extended and energy efficiency is improved.

PDM is an integrated solution for managing various kinds of document and information for a whole life~cycle of product management. PDM system spans a huge and complex area and requires so many efforts and budgets for development. A framework has been considered a promising way to improve productivity by reusing the software architecture, not just one part of the design or just source code. This was the reaSon why we developed PDM (Product Data Management) framework. Framework can reduce the time and efforts to develop a new PDM application. However, it also requires supporting environment since a framework is a big set of classes where their interactions are so complex. With this supporting environment, it is easy to understand the framework at a glance and easy to identify what hot spots to be refined to meet new requirements. In this paper, a new framework-supporting reuse environment based on the meta-repository was constructed for easy and convenient reuse.

Bridge has to be long-spanned and of simple structure, considering the social environment. As a result of this trend in bridge construction, it is important for the sake of economical efficiency to improve the structural system and increase the life cycle of a bridge. To attain these goals in constructing a steel bridge, the detail analyses based on real structure must be performed. In the steel structure bridge, the parts that are a main focus of interest are the diaphragm and the vertical bracing of the steel box girder support. This study observed the behavior of the diaphragms on the bearings of a closed section steel box girder bridge support, as dead load was increased. Stress variation of the support diaphragms in a steel box girder was considered, and both experimental test and structural analyses were performed to verify the behavior of a composite steel box girder bridge under repair or maintenance.

D-type cyclins are believed to regulate the G1 to S phase transition in response to nutrient and hormonal signals. We investigated the expression characteristics of the key cell-cycle regulators, mitotic and G1 cyclins in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). We isolated D-type cyclin gene from potato and it was classified as D3 cyclin by sequence similarities and a phylogenetic analysis, and named as StcycD3;1. The accumulation of transcripts was predominantly associated with mitotically active organs, such as stolons, roots, flowers, leaves, and stems. Transcription of StcycD3;1 can be induced by sucrose.

Software life cycle consists of requirement analysis, design, implementation, and maintenance phases, and the product of each phase has various format. The UML normalizes such products, and the class diagram, use case diagram, activity diagram and collaboration diagram are usually used for the requirement analysis phase. Because most of UML development tools store such diagrams in a file, there nay be some difficulties of information retrieval and co-work among users. To cope with the difficulties, this paper proposes a database supported methodology to store and manage the diagrams produced by the requirement analysis. In this methodology, the constituents of class, use case, activity and collaboration diagram are first analyzed and then transformed in the form of relational fables. The constituents of such diagrams are stored as tables in a database, and can be easily retrieved from the database by using some queries. This database supported methodology provides the concurrent sharing and high reuse of diagrams.

The purpose of this study is to develop a web-based database system to manage effectively data collected to evaluate program learning outcomes (PO) in a nursing school. The database management system (DBMS) was developed using a software development life cycle method: Analysis, Design, Implementation, and Evaluation. The demands for the content and system of users were collected. The system structure, database using an entity-relationship modeling, and user interface were designed based on the demands. The designed DBMS was created using GWT, Java and Apache HTTP server. The expert group and users evaluated the implemented DBMS. Problems derived from them were modified. The average of end-user computing satisfaction evaluated by 8 nursing faculty and 5 teaching assistants was 4.14 (SD =.44). The web-based PO DBMS makes it possible for nursing faculty members to access and use much of the information needed for analysis and decision-making.

Due to the increasing complexity and shorter life cycle of web applications, web applications need to be restructured to improve flexibility and extensibility. These days approaches are being used where systems are understood and restructured through clustering techniques. In this paper, the coupling metrics are proposed for clustering web pages more effectively. To achieve this, web application models are defined, where the relationship between web pages and the numbers of parameters are included. Considering direct and indirect coupling strength based on these models, coupling metrics are defined. The more direct relations between two pages and the more parameters they have, the stronger direct coupling is. The higher indirect connectivity strength between two pages is, the more similar the patterns of relationships among other web pages are. We verify the suggested metrics according to the well known verification framework and provide a case study to show that our metrics complements some existing metrics.

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a life-threatening iatrogenic complication of ovulation induction. Before ovarian stimulation, identification of patients vulnerable to developing OHSS is necessary. And ovarian stimulation should be started with low doses of gonadotropin or GnRH antagonist protocol. During monitoring of ovarian stimulation with risk of OHSS, coasting, low doses hCG and GnRH agonist for triggering ovulation are considered. If severe OHSS is predicted, cycle cancellation and cryopreservation of all embryos should be considered to reduce late-onset OHSS and morbidity. And metformin and dopamine agonist for reducing OHSS are being proposed as a prophylactic treatment for OHSS.

The assurance of software product. which Is different to other products. is very complex because of Its characteristics. The use of objective development standards or guidelines and the confirmation to meet user's requirements are Important to achieve the software quality system. Moreover correct understanding of qualitv standards and continuous applications of check-points for qualify audit are necessary. ISO 9000 series. which are International standards. were made for the qualify assurance. Among them. ISO 9000-3 is the quality management and quality assurance standards for applying ISO 9001 to the design. development. supply. installation and maintenance of software. The newly revised ISO/CD 9000-3：1995 contains a lot of enforced changes within ISO 9001 framework - quality standards for manufactured products. This paper analyses the revised ISO 9000-3 by comparing it to ISO 9001. and derives quality audit points to use for qualify audit In future.
