During the whole product design and development processes, the concurrent engineering relies on strong and permanent interactions between the departmental functions. Concurrent or simultaneous engineering in new product development is a new concept which needs to be redefined. This paper deals with a concurrent engineering model which represents how concurrency, as an organizational process, is related to a interfunctional project team. Four dimensions shaping the sucess of the concurrent engineering are suggested with detailed meausrement instruments. Moreover, an empirical study on the effects of the four dimensions on the efficiency of the product development processes is carried out in the field of electronic industries.

This thesis investigates an expert system(ES) to propose fault restoration plan by utilizing tree search strategies. In order to cope with an extensive amount of data and frequent breaker switching operations in distribution systems, the database of system configuration is constructed by using binary trees. This remarkably enhances the efficiency of search algorithm and makes the proposed ES easily adaptable to system changes due to switching operations. The rule-base is established to fully utilize the meris of tree-structured database. The inferring strategy is developed mainly based on the best-first search algorithm to increase computation efficiency. The proposed ES has been implemented to efficiently deal with large distribution systems by reducing computational burden remarkably compared with the conventional ES's.

The object of this study is to suggest the direction of building the defence logistics system of Korea Armed Forces in the future. For the purpose of this, we surveyed the best practices among the enterprises and U.S. Defence which reformed successfully the physical distribution and logistic in recent year. Also, we analyzed our current logistics system and suggested the vision, operational concept, and the way of building this system. This system is expected to reduce the total logistics cost, speed up the logistics velocity and increase the efficiency of the combat support.

This paper deals with the improvement of doctrine, organization, and training for Weapon systems during the defense acquisition process. We analyze the combat development element such as doctrine, organization, and training which is working in the United States of America. then we apply the ideas to our proposal for the improvement of doctrine, organization, and training for weapon systems. This paper will be contributed to the improvement of doctrine, organization, and training and the efficiency of defense acquisition program management.

We investigate various methods of the Benders decoposition algorithm in its application to the simple plant location problem. We developed six variants. The master problem may be relaxed as an LP problem up to an appropriate point in time, or need not be solved to the optimality before a cut is added. Furthermore, since the subproblem is highly degenerated, we can generate more than one cuts at a time. The efficiency of the methods are examined using a sample problem. The result showed that the adding two-cut method was superior to the standard method. The LP relaxation and the non-optimization of the master program greatly improved the efficiency. Applying the LP relaxation method, we were able to reduce the computing time by two thirds of the time required by the standard method.

A multi-interchange simplex method is presented. This method tries to cut almost half of the set of convex combinations which generate all decreasing feasible directions. Analysis of this method indicates high possibility of the existence of polynomial-time simplex-type methods.

TOC(Theory of Constraints) - the emphasis of this philosophy was on identifying and eliminating constraints(bottle-necks) in the system. TOC solves this and optimizes whole system by improving manufacturing constraints that limit system result. In this paper, it is shown that the concept of the "delayed differentiation" can be applied for enhancing the efficiency of the time buffer and thus reducing the of the time buffer.

A comprehensive computer software has been implemented in conjunction with the software for volumetric error generator, to assess simulation on specific measurement tasks. The simulation algorithms have been developed for major measurement tasks, such as step gauge, ring gauge, sphere gauge, and cylinder gauge simulations etc. Verification and practical applications of the developed module have shown its efficiency and validity.

A time-varying nonhomogeneous poisson process approximation of the nonexponential stochastic Lanchester model is defined and evaluated over a range of combat parameters including initial force sizes. breakpoints. and interkilling random variables. The proposed approximation is far excellent and takes much less CPU time than the existing models. The sensitivity analysis was peformed to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed model and three recommended factors are suggested to guide the combat operators.

This paper developed 3 flow-shop sequencing heuristic methods: modified RA method, modified RACS method and modified RAES method. These methods modified RA method, RACS method and RAES method developed by D. G. Dannenbring. These methods can easily determine desirable sequence of orders and can improve nx3 flow-shop's productivity and efficiency. The maximum flow-time criterion is selected as the evaluation criterion of flow-shop's efficiency, We evaluated these 6 heuristic methods’ performance. By the evaluation of the result, we can see that the modified methods produce a shorter maximum flow-time than the original methods.
