  • Developers have, for some time now, recognised the benefits of acquiring "brownfields" sites for future urban development. The term “brownfield” generally refers to sites that have been previously occupied and in most cases this occupation has been for industrial usage. A key issue that developers face when considering the acquisition of a former industrial site is contamination and the costs associated with remediating the land to a level that renders the site suitable for its proposed use. Understanding all of the issues and implications associated with the remediation of contaminated land can be quite daunting. The process of remediation brings together a number of stakeholders that all have some influence on the outcome of the works. The stakeholders include the vendor, the purchaser, the regulatory authorities i.e. EPA and council, the Site Auditor and local residents. Careful planning and negotiation with the above stakeholders should be considered before committing to any remediation project.n project.

  • Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) have a number of interesting applications to preserve road safety, notify users about changed road/traffic condition, handling post accident hazards and moreover service oriented applications to make the travel convenient to the drivers. Use of common information format for diverse applications enables the application developers to easily design flexible information dissemination system for new applications or add new features to existing application. This paper introduces a common information format for various applications in VANETs. The main goal of the paper is to design generalized distributed architectures for vehicular networks, which considers diverse application development scenarios and uses common information format. The proposed architectures enable the application developers to flexibly disseminate information to affected or interested user. In this paper, we have given a detail description of each component of the architectures and how they communicate with each other. In future, we will implement the proposed architecture using suitable simulator.

  • Technology acceptance model has demonstrated that technology adoption behavior can be explained by two user belief constructs: perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. A number of studies have explored how these beliefs develop by utilizing primarily individual-level antecedents. However, because innovation and new techniques bear a direct relation to social concerns, non-individual antecedents may be necessary. Therefore, in this study, social and organizational supports are used to understand how software developers foster beliefs regarding secure coding practices. We compiled data from 83 software developers to evaluate the technology acceptance model. Our findings show that these collective antecedents can effectively explain user belief constructs and the intention to adopt secure coding methodologies. These findings imply that society and organizations offering more concrete support programs will experience smoother deployment of security-enhancing measures.

  • Developers of new finite elements or nonlinear solution techniques rely on discriminative benchmark tests drawn from the literature to assess the advantages and drawbacks of new formulations. Buckling benchmark tests provide a rigorous evaluation of finite elements applied to thin structures, and a complete and detailed set of reference results would therefore prove very useful in carrying out such evaluations. Results are usually presented in the form of load-deflection curves that developers must reconstruct by extracting the points, a procedure which is often tedious and inaccurate. Moreover the curves are usually given without accompanying information such as the calculation time or number of iterations it took for the model to converge, even though this type of data is equally important in practice. This paper presents ten different limit-point buckling benchmark tests, and provides for each one the reference load-deflection curve, all the points necessary to recreate the curve in tabulated form, analysis data such as calculation time, number of iterations and increments, and all of the inputs used to obtain these results.

  • Many cases of information systems (IS) failure have still continued to be reported ever since computer-based information systems were introduced to process business transactions in the early 1950s. Because an enormous amount of budgets is currently invested on information technology in many organizations, failures and problems of information systems may serve as key culprits to serious business problems which will face the organizations. Thus, there have been a number of studies on IS failures which aimed to identify causes and reasons for such failures and reveal their inherent nature, Some studies developed conceptual frameworks to classify categories of diverse IS failure phenomena. However, little research performed an empirical study to investigate the underlying structure of IS failures perceived by IS professionals by measuring their perception. In this regard, the current study collected systems developers perceptual data towards IS failure phenomena to identify what constitute IS failure. The data was analyzed using a multidimensional scaling program and ten categories of problems were identified to constitute the IS failure structure, It was found that most categories were related to problems with users, hardware, and systems quality.

  • One of the problems associated with the current system of land development projects implemented by the public sector in Korea is that various service facilities are not ready in time for the occupation of residential dwelling. A major cause of the problem is the lack of financial arrangements which would smooth the cash-flow of the suppliers of the facilities during the project period. In this paper we present two schemes which will contribute to the optimal provision of service facilities by easing the financial constraint facing the land developers and suppliers of the facilities. The first scheme involves channeling a fraction of profits from a land development project and of the proceeds of mandatory sales of Type II National Housing Bonds as a loan to the suppliers of the service facilities. The second scheme considers the participation of the private sector in the project as a member of a consortium comprising the Korea Land development Corporation, the National Housing Fund, and private developers. It is proved that each scheme is superior to the current system. as well as entailing a very small cost.

  • SDAI (Standard Data Access Interface) is an interface specification of accessing various storage systems such as file systems and database management systems for STEP data. Using SDAI, both application program developers and CAD/CAM system developers can be relieved from dealing with STEP physical file or system dependent DBMS operations. In this paper, we present implementations of SDAI on different data models, i.e., relational, extended relational, and object-oriented. In order to implement SDAI, we need to translate the EXPRESS information model into target data models. The schema translation process for three different data models are compared and other implementation issues are discussed.

  • High diffraction efficiency holographic gratings in silver halide emulsion were fabricated by using reversal bleaching process. The diffraction efficiencies of gratings were improved greatly by applying rapid drying procedure with isopropyl alcohol after bleaching with optimized developers. The dependency of diffraction efficiencies on the different groups of developers, the concentration of bleaching solutions, and the drying methods are investigated experimentally and the results were analyzed theoretically. Same as usual reversal bleaching process, the fabricated gratings showed very low scttering compared to those made by conventional bleach process. The maximum diffraction efficiency was 88%.

  • Automation tools for program analysis are needed in order to program understand and maintain, extract the characteristics of object-oriented program such as class name, member function and data member. In this paper, we carried out design and implementation of the automation tool for effective maintenance of object-oriented software. Being based on Reverse Engineering, this approach extracts class relationship information from C++ source code and generates object-oriented model of class diagram using UML as the standard object-oriented methodology. Therefore, this paper provides developers visualized including class information, definitions of classes, inheritance relationships, set relationships, and simple reference relationships. Finally in this paper, we propose a method that construct class relationship information to table in analysis state and make form of table construction to link form so tat developers can perform understanding and maintaining program efficiently. And this method enable to restructure and reuse in object-oriented model.

  • Due to resource constraints, most of Android application developers need to address potential performance problems during application development and maintenance. The coding styles and patterns of Android programming could often affect the execution time and energy efficiency which are utilized by the Android applications. Thus, it is necessary for application developers to apply performance-enhancing programming practices for mobile application development. This paper introduces performance-enhancing best practices for Android programming, and further, it evaluates the impact of these practices on the CPU time of the application. The original version with the performance-worsening code has been refactored to become an efficient version without changing its functionality. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach, each coding pattern was evaluated by measuring the CPU time under the controlled runtime environment. Furthermore, the Android applications were evaluated and compared via the CPU time of the original version, with that of the refactored version. These experimental results indicate that, by -using the proposed programming practices, the Android developer can develop performance-efficient mobile applications.
