Purpose: There have been more researches focused on eco-friendly construction practices in order to save energy consumed and these practices have been extensively applied for constructing buildings. However, researches on energy consumption saving and efficiency for hospital facilities have been still insufficient. This research aims to draw factors that affect energy efficiency of hospital buildings through literature reviews and perform an expert-survey using AHP(Analytical Hierarchy Process) method in order to analyze the importances and priorities of these energy efficient factors. Method: Using the AHP method, this paper suggests the importances and priorities of factors to affect energy efficiency in hospital buildings. The survey of experts at a architectural design and a construction management companies was conducted via e-mail and mail. Result: As a result, factors of window and door, insulation, ventilation, and natural lighting turned out relatively important as respectively 0.104, 0.102, 0.101, and 0.095 n the energy efficiency in hospital buildings, while factors of artificial lighting, geothermal, solar heat, and control did unimportant as 0.027, 0.033, 0.043, and 0.053.

Based on extraction items derived from previous related studies on viewing experiences in art museums, this study is conducted to investigate extraction factors that affect viewing satisfactions and to suggest a guideline for an effective viewing environment by clarifying a hierarchy among the extraction factors. For this study, a survey was given to museum visitors, and statistical analyses were conducted on data obtained from the survey. The results of this study are summarized as follows; 1. From an analysis of extraction items that affect overall viewing satisfaction, space and art works were found to be relatively satisfactory. 2. From correlation analyses of extraction items, a degree of concentration on art works was found to most 'affect the viewing satisfactions of art museums. 3. From factor analyses, extraction items were reduced to 11 extraction factors, and a simple extraction structure affecting the viewing satisfactions in art museums. 4. From multiple regression analyses, a extraction factors were derived, and a relative hierarchy among the factors was found.

In this paper. we design and evaluate a cooperating model that increase problem solving ability by selecting proper cooperating partners under changing situation. In this model, to decide cooperation direction and extent, we have used a payoff function and then divided the group into two parts, cooperation part and non-cooperation part. To control these reconfigured groups at group level, group intention is used as a control media instead of existing data and goal. Group intention is abstractive and comprehensive and represents collection of strategies. Group intention is changed based on resources, information, and cooperation situation on group intention hierarchy. Two layered control is possible : first constraint with group intentions(group level) and then select a strategy under the constraint. These approaches are tested and evaluated on pursuit game testbed.

The health state of the oil transformer is evaluated by the age of use and the state of internal defects. Mineral Oil, used as an insulator for oil transformers, creates specific gases and compounds through chemical reactions caused by heat, moisture, and partial discharge inside the transformer. It is possible to determine the aging and defect of the transformer through these gases and compounds. So, it is an important indicator to evaluate the health of a transformer. In this study, factors for assessing the health of transformers were hierarchically categorized, and key factors for each hierarchy were selected for design weighting. These weights were determined through surveys conducted with experts in the fields of transformer design, operation, and quality. For the health of a transformer, defect-related factors are approximately three times more important than factors related to aging. Additionally, defect-related factors showed a higher weighting for gases generated at high temperatures. Furthermore, Furan was determined to have a high weight, directly associated with insulating paper aging. Based on these findings, a health index was proposed, and a comparative analysis was conducted by categorizing 40 operational transformers into normal and comparison groups to evaluate and validate it.

This paper describes an information model, devised to manage roadway design information and to improve the collaboration among the multidisciplinary design teams. An analysis concerning the workflow, the rules and the functions of current roadway design was conducted. A process model based on the result of the analysis was developed by utilizing IDEF0 methodology. The process model reflects the interdependencies among multidisciplinary design disciplines and is capable of managing communication processes. This paper also discusses the design information hierarchy and the component representation schemes for systematic design information management. It is anticipated that the proposed information model would be able to improve the overall process of design of roadway construction projects by managing design information and helping the participants communicate and share information of the project effectively.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate an effect of the new air traffic control display designed by Ecological Interface Design [EID]. The methodology of EID has not been applied to the development of the air traffic control display so far. To design a new air traffic control display by EID, We implemented Work Domain Analysis about the air traffic control domain and made the Work Domain Model that consisted of the five levels of the Abstraction Hierarchy. We extracted the Information Requirement from the completed Work Domain Model and the extracted information requirements from the model were used to design the new air traffic control display. We evaluated an effect of the new air traffic control display designed by EID. Participants for evaluating consisted of 14 active military air traffic controller of the Republic of Korea Air Force. Experiment was designed two factors within subject. Factors manipulated in the experiment included displays type to compare the existing type with the new ecological interface type and included complexity to compare the effect of the high complex situation with the effect of the low complex situation. Response time about questions with relation to air traffic collision situation, accuracy, and subjective work load were measured. The results reveled that EID type's display has a significant effect on response time, accuracy, and subjective work load and verified that EID could be applied to the air traffic control domain that is more complex and dynamic.

This research verified advertising effect according to ad information format and layout based on resource-matching theory. Existing researches suggested inconsistent results that it's effective to design advertising easy to understand by using factual information presentation and integrated layout or it's effective do design difficult advertising to understand by using explanatory information presestation and separate layout. The result of this study suggest that advertising effect by advertising design style is different according to situational elements such as motivation level of information processing and brand hierarchy. The results show that, in the high prestige brand, easily designed advertising using factual information presentation and integrated layout is more effective because consumers make favorable inference by remained cognitive resources. Contrary to this in the low prestige brand, not easily designed advertising using explanatory information and separate layout is more effective because consumers have no remained cognitive resources so that they concentrate on advertising itself.
