This paper describes the development of a decision support system (DSS) for the real time reservoir operation that aims to maximize the flood control effect. In the decision support system, model base and real time data processing subsystem are included along with the graphical user interface(GUI) that is able to visualize the forecasted runoff hydrographs at the flood control points and reservoir water levels resulting from the model run as well as the current hydrologic status. The system was verified through the pseudo real time applications to the Taechong reservoir operation with the historical flood events of the Kum river basin occurred in July, 1987 and August, 1995, Decision making processes were performed using the developed system and the results were compared with the real operations at that time. The reservoir operation using the pseudo real time application of DSS were simulated by the flood runoff simulation model, that shows the reservoir operation by DSS were successful in flood control for the lower Kum River.

Since the Web 2.0 generation, the average user is more than just enjoying the various media contents; they start to create contents, and those contents have had a huge value and great influence in recent days. The reason for the increase of users who tend to create contents is due to popularization of web based applications. Previous applications were only for the skilled person; however, new web based applications involve the average person and give him a new level of user enjoyment by allowing him to create easily with simple operations. In this paper, through analysing previous animation-creating applications which could not spread widely compared to other contents, we suggest the outline for developing a web based animation-creating application which can help the user to easily create animation contents. We have looked around at how various other contents-making applications have been changed to help the user to be able to participate in creating contents, and we suggest how animation-creating applications can be changed and developed from this analysis. We expect the conclusion of this paper to stimulate to development acting 3D animation-creating applications corresponding to the web 2.0 features - open, share, cooperate, participate. In result, users can enjoy creating the animation more actively; at the same time, we hope to help the development of the new applications which correlate to memedia generation.

Recently computing devices by connecting to a network, grid computing, the next generation of digital neural networks that provide maximum service will connect all of the computer such as a PC or server, PDA into one giant network makes the virtual machine. Therefore, we propose the grid computing implementation model to be applied to meteorological business field as follows. First, grid computing will be used for tasks such as the development of numerical models below the mid-scale or test operations, and the final backup of the weather supercomputer. Second, the resources that will constitute grid computing are limited to business PCs and Linux servers operated by the central government considering operational efficiency. Third, the network is restricted to the LAN section, which suggests the implementation of high performance computing.

It is important to select the personnel with ideal pilot aptitude considering dramatically advancing aircraft performance and complexity of military operations as a consequence to the highly developed science and technology. The opportunity cost lost from dropouts and human error being the first cause of aviation accidents are the realistic reasons for the significance of personnel selection based on their aptitude. This study analyses the ROKAF pilot aptitude test that was improved in 2004, using various classification models. This study discusses the significance of the selected variables along with the direction of ROKAF pilot aptitude test for its development in the future. The accuracy of the classification models was improved by taking into account differing personnel characteristics of individuals on the test.

Recently, computer systems have encountered difficulties in making further progress due to the technical limitations of DRAM based main memory technologies. This has motivated the development of next generation memory technologies that have high density and non-volatility. However, these new memory technologies also have their own intrinsic limitations, making it difficult for them to currently be used as main memory. In order to overcome these problems, we propose a hybrid main memory system, namely HyMN, which utilizes the merits of next generation memory technologies by combining two types of memory: Write-Affable RAM(WAM) and Read-Affable RAM(ReAM). In so doing, we analyze the appropriate WAM size for HyMN, at which we can avoid the performance degradation. Further, we show that the execution time performance of HyMN, which provides an additional benefit of durability against unexpected blackouts, is almost comparable to legacy DRAM systems under normal operations.

The results of the study show that managers of Korean manufacturing firms pursue international business strategy(IBS) to achieve four different objectives: global integration, national responsiveness, market expansion, or development and exploitation of firm-specific knowledge. IBS is closely related to the international business environment of the firms. When managers think they can exploit economies of scale by integrating worldwide operations, they prefer the global standardization strategy. Managers of firms which implement the localization strategy actively recognize the importance of the strategy more than those of other firms. IBS helps to improve the overall international competitiveness of the firms. Especially. implementing global standardization and localization simultaneously seems to be useful to strengthen the competitiveness of the firms.

Recently, smart cards with multi-applications loaded are becoming popular owing to many advantages. As many casual users would like to reduce the number of plastic cards, and card issuers want to upgrade the existing applications or add the new applications, and developers wish to reduce the development turn-around time, multi-applications smart cards are becoming important. In addition, many advantages exist between the business partners as smart card applications can share critical information. New operating systems such as JavaCard and MULTOS are suggested for the multi-applications smart card service recently. In this paper, after we review the principles of operations of smart card, we propose the various security mechanisms for the multi-application JavaCard service environment, which is becoming de facto standard in the industry.

Touch screen technologies are widely used as the basic input for mobile devices. However, for smartphones, touch screens have been utilized as a simple device that merely process text data. It has been considered an inappropriate multimedia input device for one to use design applications, such as painting, due to its narrow touch screen space, which makes it inconvenient to draw pictures. In this study, we propose to enhance this weakness by using infrared approach on a smartphone's input interface. The usage of infrared approach will allow for quick and accurate operations without facing any space constraints. In this paper, we provide a detailed description of the design and implementation of a smartphone user interface using infrared pointing device. Additionally, using experimental results, we prove that our proposed approach is more convenient and efficient than traditional touch screen approaches used in smartphones.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of the BSCs of 642 firms excluding the financial and insurance companies listed on KOSPI. The analysis of financial performance through analysis of major financial ratios between BSC and non-BSC firms is compared with the input of human and material resources for business growth. We will promote the spread of BSC and examine the areas differentiated performance improvement. The analytical categories are manufacturing, service, wholesale and retail, and information and communications, which are 2,136 business years out of 2,378 final analytical samples. The results of the analysis are as follows. As a result of the analysis, among the four industries analyzed, the industries that showed the best performance were manufacturing. In the case of service industry, growth and activity were lower than those of non-adoption (NA) companies, but the operating margin was significantly different from manufacturing. However, market value was higher than that of NA companies, and R&D expenditures and advertising expenses were significantly higher than NA firms. On the other hand, there was no significant difference in profitability between the BSC and NA firms, but the market value was very significant. EPS is 5.22 times, BPS is 5.64 times, PBR is 1.3 times, and EVA is 35 times higher. In addition, R&D expenditure and advertising expenditure are more than twice as high as those of NA. In the case of the service industry, there is no significant difference in the growth performance from the NA firms. Activity indicators, BSC introduced companies are three times lower than both the total assets turnover and the capital turnover rate. The operating profit margin was high at 45.8% for introduced companies and 37.2% for non-introduced companies. In market value analysis, only BPS was 1.68 times higher. On the other hand, investment in welfare expenses is 0.2% of total assets, which is relatively low compared to NA firms. However, research and development expenses and advertising expenses are 2.1% and 1.02% of total assets, respectively, but they are relatively lower than those of NA firms. Unlike the manufacturing and service industries, wholesale and retail trade was significantly higher than the NA firms in terms of sales growth and total assets growth rate. In terms of market value, EPS and BPS were significantly higher, but the benefits, R&D expenditures, and advertising expenses were lower than those of NA firms. The information and communication industry showed lower level of performance than the NA firms in all indicators except cash liquidity, BPS, and EVA.

The FUel Rod Analysis(FURA) code is developed using two-dimensional finite element methods for axisymmetric and plane stress analysis of fuel rod. It predicts the thermal and mechanical behavior of fuel rod during normal and load follow operations. To evaluate the exact temperature distribution and the inner gas pressure, the radial deformation of pellet and clad, the fission gas release are considered over the full-length of fuel rod. The thermal element equation is derived using Galerkin's techniques. The displacement element equation is derived using the principle of virtual works. The mechanical analysis can accommodate various components of strain: elastic, plastic, creep and thermal strain as well as strain due to swelling, relocation and densification. The 4-node quadratic isoparametric elements are adopted, and the geometric model is confined to a half-pellet-height region with the assumption that pellet-pellet interaction is symmetrical. The pellet cracking and crack healing, pellet-cladding interaction are modelled. The Newton-Raphson iteration with an implicit algorithm is applied to perform the analysis of non-linear material behavior accurately and stably. The pellet and cladding model has been compared with both analytical solutions and experimental results. The observed and predicted results are in good agreement. The general behavior of fuel rod is calculated by axisymmetric system and the cladding behavior against radial crack is used by plane stress system. The sensitivity of strain aging of PWR fuel cladding tube due to load following is evaluated in terms of linear power, load cycle frequency and amplitude.
