  • This study surveyed the retrieval systems for digital information resources of the university libraries in Busan, Ulsan, Gyeongnam districts and the vendors. Kinds of access points and retrieval conditions (Boolean logic, methods of index term identification, and particularities of the retrieval) of the libraries' systems are various and different to each other. Access points of the vendors' systems are unessentially various and different to each other, but the retrieval conditions are rather elaborated. Upon the result the suggestions for the standardization of digital information retrieval system are offered.

  • A semiring is a binary system $(S, +, \times)$ such that (S, +) is an Abelian monoid (identity 0), (S,x) is a monoid (identity 1), $\times$ distributes over +, 0 $\times s s \times 0 = 0$ for all s in S, and $1 \neq 0$. Usually S denotes the system and $\times$ is denoted by juxtaposition. If $(S,\times)$ is Abelian, then S is commutative. Thus all rings are semirings. Some examples of semirings which occur in combinatorics are Boolean algebra of subsets of a finite set (with addition being union and multiplication being intersection) and the nonnegative integers (with usual arithmetic). The concepts of matrix theory are defined over a semiring as over a field. Recently a number of authors have studied various problems of semiring matrix theory. In particular, Minc [4] has written an encyclopedic work on nonnegative matrices.

  • If S is a semiring of nonnegative reals, which linear operators T on the space of $m \times n$ matrices over S preserve the column rank of each matrix\ulcorner Evidently if P and Q are invertible matrices whose inverses have entries in S, then $T : X \longrightarrow PXQ$ is a column rank preserving, linear operator. Beasley and Song obtained some characterizations of column rank preserving linear operators on the space of $m \times n$ matrices over $Z_+$, the semiring of nonnegative integers in [1] and over the binary Boolean algebra in [7] and [8]. In [4], Beasley, Gregory and Pullman obtained characterizations of semiring rank-1 matrices and semiring rank preserving operators over certain semirings of the nonnegative reals. We considers over certain semirings of the nonnegative reals. We consider some results in [4] in view of a certain column rank instead of semiring rank.

  • M$_{n}$(F) denotes the set of all n*n matrices over F={0, 1}. For a, b.mem.F, define a+b=max{a, b} and ab=min{a, b}. Under these operations a+b and ab, M$_{n}$(F) forms a multiplicative semigroup (see [1], [4]) and we call it the semigroup of the n*n boolean matrices over F={0, 1}. Since the semigroup M$_{n}$(F) is the matrix representation of the semigroup B$_{n}$ of the binary relations on the set X with n elements, we may identify M$_{n}$(F) with B$_{n}$ for finding all D-classes.l D-classes.

  • In this paper, we used query evaluation method through thesaurus for retrieving Components having concept relation with any classes in a query. Queries are presented in boolean and expanded by similar table. Query expansion by thesaurus is the solution of the term mismatching and it enhanced precision and recall of the components retrieval. For efficiency evaluation of query expansion, we defined most critical value through a simulation and compared precision and recall each other.

  • The network reliability is to be computed in terms of the terminal reliability. The computation of a terminal reliability is started with a Boolean sum of products expression corresponding to simple paths of the pair of nodes. This expression is then transformed into another equivalent expression to be a Disjoint Sum of Products form. But this computation of the terminal reliability obviously does not consider the communication between any other nodes but for the source and the sink. In this paper, we derive the overall network reliability which all other remaining nodes. For this, we propose a method to make the SOP disjoint for deriving the network reliability expression from the system success expression using the modified Sheinman's method. Our method includes the concept of spanning trees to find the system success function by the Cartesian products of vertex cutsets.

  • In this paper, a new state assignment method is proposed for the implementation of the area-effective control part. Introducing the, concept of adjacency matrix to control table generated by SDL(Symbolic Description Language) hardware compiler, a state assignment method is proposed with which minimal number of flip flops and effective number of product terms can be obtained to accomplish the area-effective implementation. Also, with substituting the assigned code to state transition table, boolean equations are obtained through 2-level logic minimization. Proposed algorithm is programmed in C-language on VAX-750/UNIX and b efficiency is shown by the practical example.

  • The 74181 is arithmetic logic units(ALU)/function generator. This circuit performs 16 binary arithmetic operations on two 4-bit words. And a full carry look-ahead scheme is made available in this device. The 74181 can also be utilized as a comparator. This circuit has been also designed to provide 16 possible functions of two Boolean variables without the use of external circuitry. This paper analyzes the function of the logic and the implementation adopted in the design of 74181. The understanding of the logic characteristics of this chip enables us to improve future applications.

  • With the advent of ubiquitous computing, a massive amount of trajectory data has been published and shared in many websites. This type of computing also provides motivation for online mining of trajectory data, to fit user-specific preferences or context (e.g., time of the day). While many trajectory clustering algorithms have been proposed, they have typically focused on offline mining and do not consider the restrictions of the underlying road network and selection conditions representing user contexts. In clear contrast, we study an efficient clustering algorithm for Boolean + Clustering queries using a pre-materialized and summarized data structure. Our experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed method using real-life trajectory data.

  • 본 논문에서는 불리언 모델을 지원하는 정보검색 시스템에서 사용자로부터 입력받은 불리언 질의를 효율적으로 연산하기 위한 3 가지 방법을 제안한다. 첫째, 불리언 대수를 사용하여 형태적으로 불필요한 노드를 제거한다. 둘째 색인어 출현 빈도 정보를 사용함으로써 빈도 0 을 가지는 노드와 이를 포함하는 노드의 연산 제외 여부를 결정하고, 연산 수행 시 시간이 적게 걸리는 순으로 피 연산자와 연산자의 순서를 재배열한다. 셋째, 불리언 질의 내에 복합 명사가 포함되어 있을 경우 구성 명사와 연산자의 조합을 이용한 질의 확장을 실시한다. 처음 두 가지 방법은 검색 속도의 향상을, 세 번째 방법은 정확도의 향상을 목표로 한다.
