An injection experiment was carried ut to investigate the pressure domain within which hydromechanical coupling influences considerably the hydrologic behavior of a granite rock mass. The resulting database is used for testing a numerical model dedicated to the analysis of such hydromechanical interactions. These measurements were performed in an open hole section, isolated from shallower zones by a packer set at a depth of 275 m and extending down to 840 m. They consisted in a series of flow meter injection tests, at increasing injection rates. Field results showed that conductive fractures from a dynamic and interdependent network, that individual fracture zones could not be adequately modeled as independent systems, that new fluid intakes zones appeared when pore pressure exceeded the minimum principal stress magnitude in that well, and that pore pressures much larger than this minimum stress could be further supported by the circulated fractures. These characteristics give rise to the question of the influence of the morphology of the natural fracture network in a rock mass under anisotropic stress conditions on the effects of hydromechanical couplings.

Object-oriented database systems have been proposed as an effective solution for providing the data management facilities of complex applications. Proving this claim and the investigation of related issues such as query processing have been hampered by the absence of a formal object-oriented query model. In this paper, we not only define a query model based on aggregation inheritance but also develop semantic rewriting rules which are applied to equivalence preserving rewrite rules in algebraic expression of a query. Analyzing semantically the query model, the query model can be optimized to logically object-oriented query processing. And algebra expresstions of a query can be optimized by applying equivalence preserving rewrite rules.

Numerous train operating companies provide training by means of driving simulators. A detailed analysis in the course of the rail research project 2TRAIN has shown that the simulation technology, the purposes of training and the overall concept of simulator-based training are rather diverse (Schmitz & Maag, 2008). A joint factor however are weak assessment capabilities and the fact that the simulator training is often not embedded into the overall competence management. This fact hinders an optimal use of the simulators. Therefore, 2TRAIN aims at the development of enhanced training and assessment tools. Taking into account that several simulators are already in use, the focus lays on the extension of existing simulation technology instead of developing entirely new systems. This extension comprises (1) a common data simulation interface (CDSI), (2) a rule-based expert system (ExSys), (3) a virtual instructor (VI), and (4) an _assessment database (AssDB). The foundation of this technical development is an assessment concept (PERMA concept) that is based on performance markers. The first part of the paper presents this assessment concept and a process model for the two major steps of driver performance assessment, i.e. (1) the specification of exercise and assessment and (2) the assessment algorithm and execution of the assessment. The second part describes the rationale and the functionalities of the simulator add-on tools. Finally, recommendations for further technical improvement and appropriate usage are given. based on the results of a pilot study.

This paper proposes a MIDI- and audio-based music genre classification method for Korean traditional music. There are many traditional instruments in Korea, and most of the traditional songs played using the instruments have similar patterns and rhythms. Although music information processing such as music genre classification and audio melody extraction have been studied, most studies have focused on pop, jazz, rock, and other universal genres. There are few studies on Korean traditional music because of the lack of datasets. This paper analyzes raw audio and MIDI phrases in Korean traditional music, performed using Korean traditional musical instruments. The classified samples and MIDI, based on our classification system, will be used to construct a database or to implement our Kontakt-based instrument library. Thus, we can construct a management system for a Korean traditional music library using this classification system. Appropriate feature sets for raw audio and MIDI phrases are proposed and the classification results-based on machine learning algorithms such as support vector machine, multi-layer perception, decision tree, and random forest-are outlined in this paper.

Geographical Informal ion Systems have become useful tools for improving the administrative management of local governments. Despite its innovative aspects, GIS implementation in local governments has yet to be actively carried out, utilized in only a few occasions in establishing comprehensive plans or conduct ins model system developments. This can be basically attributed to technological, institutional, and economic difficulties, that is, a lack of understanding of GIS technology, database development, and the required institutional support. Using Seoul as a case study, this study analyses the potential and effectiveness of GIS and examines strategies of implementation, thereby suggesting basic policy direct ions for GIS investment in local governments.

As the importance and utilization of multimedia data increases, it becomes necessary to represent and manage multimedia data within database systems. In this paper, we designed and implemented an image retrieval system which support efficient management and intelligent retrieval of image data using concept hierarchy and data mining techniques. We stored the image information intelligently in databases using concept hierarchy. To support intelligent retrievals and efficient web services, our system automatically extracts and stores the user information, the user's query information, and the feature data of images. The proposed system integrates user metadata and image metadata to support various retrieval methods on image data.

대화식 UNDO는 수행된 연산을 철회시키거나 재실행시킴으로서 사용자의 오류를 쉽게 교정할 수 있도록 허용하기 위한 일종의 회복기능이다. 소프트웨어 개발, 하이퍼미디어 CAD 등과 같은 새로운 데이터베이스응용 분야에서는 편리한 저작 및 편집 과정으르 위하여 대화식 UNDO 기능의 지원이 필수적이다. 상용 DBMS들이 제공하는 세이브포인트를 이용한 부분 철회는 수행된 연산의 철회만을 허용하는 것으로 대화식 UNDO의 제한적 기능이다. 기존의 응용 시스템들은 데이터 관리를 위해서는 DBMS를 사용하면서도 이러한 대화식 UNDO 기능은 응용시스템에서 직접 제공하고 있다. 대화식 UNDO 기능의 구현은 매우 복잡하기 때문에 응용 프로그래머에게 상당한 개발 오버헤드를 요구한다. 본 연구의 목적은다양한 응용 시스템개발을 위하여 공통적으로 필요한 고급 기능을 응용 프로그래머가 쉽게 이용할 수 있도록 대화식 UNDO 기능을 DBMS에서 직접 지원하는 새로운 회복 기법을 제안하는 것이다. 제안된 기법에서는 트랜잭션 철회시 대화식 UNDO에 의해 UNDO된 연산들을 스킵함으로써 빠른 철회를 보장하고 여러 연산을 한번에 철회할 수 있는 벌크 UNDO 연산 (bulk undo)을 제공한다. 벌크들도 다시 재실행될수 있다는 점에서 부분 철회와 구별된다. 특히,일반 DBMS에서 회복을 위하여 관리해야 하는 정보를 최대한 활용함으로써 새로운 기능의 추가에도 불구하고 제안된 기법의 성능은 이러한 기능을 제공하지 않는 기존의 회복 기법과 비교할만한 좋은 성능을 보인다.

In this paper, we developed the online Monitoring & Diagnostic(MD) system of distribution transformers. It consists of the Data Acquisition(DA) module and the DataBase(DB) module. The acquired data from the distribution transformers is stored to the DB in an on-line. The DB is planned and made to the RDBMS (Relative DataBase Management System) to manage the data efficiently. The developed MD system estimates the loss of life from the DB. Thus, it could be managed the career and the functional lifetime of the transformer more efficiently than existing systems. In the case study, the oil temperature rising experiment is performed by using the back loading method in the laboratory level. From the results, the proposed MB system can be a practical applications for the distribution transformers.

Logistics optimization problems related with vehicle routing such as warehouse locating, track scheduling, customer order delivery, wastage pickup etc. are very interesting and important issues to date. Many Vehicle Routing and Scheduling Systems (VRSS) have been developed/proposed to optimize the logistics problems. But majority of them are dedicated to a particular problem and are unable to handle the real world spatial data directly. The system developed for one problem may not be suitable for others due to inter-problem constraint variations. The constraints may include geographical, environmental and road traffic nature of the working region along with other constraints related with the problem. So the developer always needs to modify the original routing algorithm in order to fulfill the purpose. In our study, we propose a general-purpose platform by combining GIS road map and Database Management System (DBMS), so that VRSS can interact with real world spatial data directly to solve different kinds of vehicle routing problems. Using the features of our developed system, the developer can frequently modify the existing algorithm or create a new one to serve the purpose.

Animal and crop production systems were integrated on a single farm. This integrated farming system recycled nutrients on the farm. The separation of animal and crop production with the introduction of cheap commercial fertilizers, farms were not used land-applied manure. The on-line manure matching is one of the emerging business in the achievement of recycling and resource recovery. The manure matching actively promotes the reuse and recycling of by-products and manure. This study constructs to manure matching information system to solve the exchange problems between herders and croppers. Manure matching web sites designed. This paper introduces a web-based animal manure matching system. A manure matching service, part of the manure transport, links farmers who produce excess manure with farmers who can use the manure. Farmers registered with the service have requested manure. The manure matching service supports the transport project by linking farmers with excess manure with those farmers who can utilize the manure safely as a nutrient source. The goal of the service is to protect water quality by fostering efficient land application. Benefits to those who use the manure network include reduced disposal costs, lower purchase costs and recycling of manure. The manure matching is based on the principle that 'one persons waste is another person's fertilizer.' It provides a free online matchmaking service for environmentally safe manure recycling management system.
