Many researcher uses simulation techniques for understanding the phenomenon and expecting the response. Simulation techniques have many advantages which is less time-consuming, easy to control constraints, and cheaper than experimental study. However Researches usually are not good at programming the model, it's hard to implement simulation model using computer language. They use spreadsheet program like Microsoft $excel^{TM}$ Although a spreadsheet program is good for modeling, it's cumbersome to describe expressions which consist of not variable name but location indicator. This study suggests the program which helps researcher developing model using graphical interface and variable name. For verifying usability, the model which is implemented by developed modeler were compared with by spreadsheet program.

Graphical user interface testing (GUI testing) techniques have been widely used to test the functionality of Android applications (apps) and to detect faults for verification of the reliability and usability of apps. To adequately test the behaviors of apps, a number of studies on model-based GUI testing techniques have been performed on Android apps. However, the effectiveness of model-based techniques greatly depends on the quality of the GUI model, because model-based GUI testing techniques generate test inputs based on this model. Therefore, in order to improve testing effectiveness in model-based techniques, accurate and efficient GUI model generation has to be achieved using an improved model generation technique with concrete definition of GUI states. For accurate and efficient generation of a GUI model and test inputs, this study suggests a hierarchical GUI state comparison technique and evaluates this technique through comparison with the existing model-based techniques, considering activities as GUI states. Our results show that the proposed technique outperforms existing approaches and has the potential to improve the performance of model-based GUI testing techniques for Android apps.

The emergence of mid-to-small satellites has created a need for rapid development with a relatively low cost. However, the development of mid-to-small satellites requires considerable time and cost in early phase, in particular, during the development of mission and system requirements through iterations of conceptual design and mission design. In this research, Spacecraft Conceptual Design Tool(SCDT) which is based on Graphical User Interface(GUI) was developed to reduce the time and cost for early phase development. Furthermore, GUI-based software can make the input values to be editable easily and show users design results in various way. In this paper, the development results of MATLAB GUI-based SCDT are introduced.

The compartmentation model is represented by the characteristics and geometric information of the spaces defined by the structural members which are used for the boundary planes of the compartment. For the efficient compartment modeling a program performing the compartmentation design by the chopping and merging method was presented by authors. In this research, the development of an interactive ship compartmentation modeller is introduced. It is natural that the value of the program lessens if the input process is complicated and uneasy, even though the internal techniques for the compartmentation modeling are superior. In this paper, a method for the convenient input is proposed and implemented with the help of a graphical user interface technique. The modeling method introduced in this paper performs an efficient compartmentation modeling fast and conveniently by the solid modeling concept and the graphical user interface.

In this paper, we design and implement a parallel programming environment using graphicial user interface. Parallel program must be written according to the characters of various hardwares or programs. So it is difficult to write the parallel program. In this paper, we design and implement a parallel programming environment which solved this problem. The traditional parallel compiler provides the parallel information in the text environment. But this paper provides the parallel information using graphicial user interface so that the user may use it more easily. This parallel environment provide functions such as, data dependence analysis, CFG, HTF, and loop transformation.

A practical method to investigate the user interface of web based Flexible Manufacturing System(FMS) on the internet environment is established. Because the industrial FMS controller requires a lot of gadget, such as switch, dial, button, etc., for actual work-site flexible operation sufficiently, the user interface of the controller is significantly complex. The support for operational convenience of FMS controller can increase productivity and efficiency of the user, operational personnel of FMS. While most FMS provide their application programming interface(API) and graphical user interface(GUI) with adequate mechanism itself when used in stand alone, there is increasing demand for FMS that can operate with the intuitional user interface find virtual reality(V/R) environment. This thesis considers the intuitional user interface of Web-based FMS first, and from this, goes a step further, improves as virtual reality environment of FMS on the internet environments by using the feature based modeling technique approach and cartoon rendering. The feature-based modeling technique approach is applied to FMS line which is consist of facilities such as machining center, CNC lathe, autonomous guided vehicle, rail guided vehicle, and various controllers. In this study, the FMS established the intuitional user interface is able to obtain not only the operational convenience but also the enough productivity and significant efficiency.

The CINDER code has about 60 years of development history, and is thus one of the world's best transmutation computing codes to date. Unfortunately, it is complex and cumbersome to use. Preparing auxiliary input files for activation computation from MCNPX output and executing them using Perl script (activation script) is the first difficulty, and separation of gamma source computing script (gamma script), which analyzes the spectra files produced by CINDER code and creates source definition format for MCNPX code, is the second difficulty. In addition, for highly nonlinear problems, multiple human interventions may increase the possibility of errors. Postprocessing such as making plots with large text outputs is also time consuming. One way to improve these limitations is to make a graphical user interface wrapper that includes all codes, such as MCNPX and CINDER, and all scripts with a visual C#.NET tool. The graphical user interface merges all the codes and provides easy postprocessing of graphics data and Microsoft office tools, such as Excel sheets, which make the CINDER code easy to use. This study describes the VCINDER code (with visual C#.NET) and gives a typical application example.

In a shipyard, computer calculation is not frequently used for the grain stability calculation because of large difference between calculation values and real values. Therefore, the necessary calculation process for grain stability is done manually. GUI(Graphical User Interface) is adopted for the convenience of users and interactive data I/O. The hold shape (girder, hold, etc.)needed for calculation are visualized using GLBAX which is a 3 dimensional graphic library. The interface with the ship basic calculation package is also implemented. The aim of this paper is to develop a reliable interactive grain stability calculation program which reduces computational time, and is to computerize the grain stability calculation procedure.
