Quality assurance (QA) for nuclear R&D project is very concerned about the poor economy due to the improper selection of QA requirements. This paper proposes a new methodology for determining the relative importance weights of QA requirements considering the attributes of nuclear R&D project. QFD (Quality Function Deployment) is used as a conceptual framework and fuzzy number is introduced to capture the vagueness uncertainty existing in human judgement. Also we use a confidence attitude of decision-maker in order to improve the reliability of extracted attribute level of R&D project. Case study on a nuclear R&D project and scenario analysis are carried out to verify the usefulness and effectiveness of proposed methodology.

The aim of this paper is to put forward the significance that Dewey's naturalistic theory of value has today in examining how value arises from experience. This is a necessary discussion as logical-positivists bring about the problem of fact/value dichotomy and further deny the possibility of intellectual discussion on value judgments. In this situation, the task that the discussion on value must be resolved is to go beyond the problem of fact/value dichotomy and to confer objectivity upon value judgments. In the stream of analytic philosophy, the significance of Dewey's theory of value is revealed by how Putnam and Johnson receive it. To overcome the problem of dichotomy, Putnam asserts that they are entangled because the value arises from a criticism through scientific inquiry. Also Johnson proves that Dewey's moral deliberation as valuation is wedded with cognition, feeling, and imagination by the research on cognitive science and shows that Dewey's theory of value is un-relativistic because it is on the basis of shared experience. So, if the absolute value is not given to us, Dewey's theory of value shows us how value is made by open inquiry. It has the significance of proposing the direction that the theory of value orients itself today.

As the interest in the combinatorial auction has increased, diverse combinatorial auction market types have been proposed. Although there have been several studies on the combinatorial auction design, the studies covered some factors or partial dimensions of combinatorial auction design. Given the potential practical value of combinatorial auctions, it is necessary to approach it with an integrated and systematic design methodology for supporting a comprehensive range of combinatorial auction models. Thus, we present a systematic framework for combinatorial auction design methodology. In particular, we classified the combinatorial auction architecture types, process types, and mechanism types. This framework characterizes the different combinatorial auction models, and lead to a useful taxonomy of the combinatorial auction design factors and taxonomy of the market types by coordination among the design factors. In addition, we illustrate an n-bilateral combinatorial auction market, derived from our design methodology, to show the viability of our study.

Ubiquitous Smart Space(USS) like u-City has been expected to create a high added value. However, developing USS has a high risk because it should use future technologies and development methodologies that have been never tried in the past. Hence, it has to be considered thoroughly in the very first stage of development. Moreover, USS usually uses several ubiquitous computing technologies combinationally because of the nature of USS. Despite of this, existing technology selection methodologies or technology evaluation methodologies only focus on a single technology. This leads us to develop a methodology of optimal technology combination for developing a specific USS. The purpose of this paper is to propose the methodology and to apply it to develop a real USS. We use portfolio theory and constraint satisfaction problem to determine an optimal technology combination. We also apply our methodology to the national ubiquitous computing project which carries out at present to validate it.

Software architecture plays a key role in satisfying non-functional requirement (NFR), i.e. quality requirements and constraints. Architecture design methods and tactics for conventional NFR are largely available in literatures. However, the methods for the target system-specific non-conventional NFRs are not readily available; rather architects should invent the design methods from their experiences and intuitions. Hence, the hardship to design architectures for non-conventional NFRs is quite high. In this paper, we provide a systematic architecture design methodology for non-conventional NFRs. We provide a five-step process, and detailed instructions for the steps. In the process, we treat the traceability among artifacts and seamlessness as essential values for supporting effective architecture design. We apply the methodology on designing architectures for a platform software system. We believe that the proposed methodology can be effectively utilized in designing high quality architectures for non-conventional NFRs.

This thesis focuses on the five functions of film music as proposed by American composer Aaron Copland, and the application of these functions in the modern film Cinema Paradiso featuring music by Italian composer Ennio Morricone. Morricone has shown the application of these techniques in Western films such as the 1960s film A Fistful of Dollars and the top-rated 1980s films The Mission and Cinema Paradiso. Through his work, he maximizes the effects of representation in each scene by using variations of the theme music to effectively apply the functional theory of film music. Cinema Paradiso, especially, pursued the consistency and diversity of film at the same time. And it emphasized the specific atmosphere, intending to provide continuity in the scenes during the progress of the film. This thesis provides an understanding of the variation technique in film music, and the functionality of film music from scene to scene, as used by Morricone, for students majoring in film music.

Analysis of narrative texts has been regarded as academically and practically important, and has been made from various perspectives and methods. In this paper, the computational narrative analysis methodology from the perspective of information processing was examined. From the point of view of information processing, the creation and acceptance of narrative is a bidirectional coding process mediated by narrative text, and narrative text can be said to be a multi-layered structured code. In this paper, four methodologies that share this point of view - character network analysis, text mining and sentiment analysis, continuity analysis of event composition, and knowledge analysis of narrative agents - were examined together with cases. Through this, the mechanism and possibility of computational methodology in narrative analysis were confirmed. In conclusion, the significance and side effects of computational narrative analysis were examined, and the necessity of designing a human-computer collaboration model based on the consilience of the humanities and science/technology was discussed. Based on this model, it was argued that aesthetically creative, ethically good, politically progressive, and cognitively sophisticated narratives could be made more effectively.

This article aims to investigate the change of theories of reading and its historical meaning in the later Joseon period. Three scholar who left major theories of reading are mainly analyzed for the sake of it. Park, Se-chae(1631-1695) was a Neo-Confucianist who had the theory of reading named Dokseo-Gungliron(讀書窮理論). It was totally based on the scheme of Neo-Confucianist instruction and concentrated on mastering the moral principles with relishing the sentences of the Confucian Canons. Jeong, Yak-yong(1762-1836) was a Practical learning scholar and then criticized the moral-centric theory of reading of Neo-Confucianism. He valued much of the Confucian Canons but also focused on erudite reading so as to enlarge practical knowledge. Hong, Gil-ju(1786-1841) was a stylist and presented a severe criticism against Neo-Confucianist theory of reading as much. He thought that what we could realize with reading are the principles of the individual, not of the whole. The change of theories of reading in the later Joseon period as above reveals us the fact that the intellectual history of that period was in the process of dynamical change.

As a computerized application for controlling enterprise processes, BPM(Business Process Management) has been received such concerns that many solution vendors developed their own process definition and storage methods. The fact causes the needs of process modeling standards for process model exchange and at the same time, requires the appropriate methodology for adopting the global standards. In this paper, we propose a transformation methodology of BPMN-based file into XMI(XML Metadata Interchange)-based neutral file format. We devised translation templates for 21 workflow patterns, and compared the results with BPEL4WS(Business Process Execution Language for Web Services) translation. As a result, our XMI transformation model enables more complete translation of process model in comparison with existing model, and thus can be practically utilized to the BPM vendors adopting BPMN standards.

It is difficult to identify reusable and independent components in component-based development(CBD) process. Therefore existing methodologies have dealt the problem of component identification based on only developer's intuition and heuristics. As a result, it is difficult to identify the business components by common developers. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new baseline and technique to identify the business components based on domain model such as use case diagrams, class diagrams, and sequence diagrams. proposed method identifies components through two phases; system component identification and business component identification. Especially, we consider structural characteristics as well as dependency characteristics according to methods call types and directions in identifying components. We also present a case study and comparative analysis and assessment to prove the practical use of our technique.
