An Integrated Outage Management System (IOMS) is a utility owned, centralized information system. Using the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) methodology, the IOMS integrates different databases and components of outage management systems to improve the quality of service of electrical power to customers. This paper describes the development of an IOMS and its related utility functionality. The design considerations, salient features, component integration, functional aspects, and implementation issues of the IOMS are discussed. Evidence shows that the IOMS implementation would result in improving the overall quality of electric power supply and effective outage management significantly.

In this study, various hydraulic phenomena were analyzed from the dam model experiments and the analyzed results were compared with existing computation results. Sungduk dam model structures were constructed using Froude similarity law by 1:50 scale. From the measurements of hydraulic phenomena at spillway channel, an improvement method was trying to be suggested over shortcoming of existing design plan. The result of model experiment showed no big difference with that of each part's numerical interpretation. Sidewall overflows were observed, as water conveyance occurred due to the linear characteristics of spillways, which raised the necessity for improving the linear forms of spillways. Also, it was judged to be necessary improving load pressure and establishing protective structures at the riverbed grounds of downstream channels.

In 2000, Standard Design Loads for Building was changed especially in seismic load. According to the change, seismic-resisting capacity of deteriorated apartment houses has to be reestimated. This research is to propose seismic-strengthening and improving methods of structural efficiency of RC deteriorated apartment houses. The analysis models were shear-wall system(36/58/79$m^{2}$) and beam-column system(11/19/25py) which were constructed in early 1980 and didn't consider seismic load. The definite methods are addition of shear walls and lightening of load. The story-drifts of shear wall systems exceed allowable story-drifts so that two methods was applied. The story-drifts of beam-columns system satisfy allowable story-drifts, thus the latter is applied. The seismic-resisting capacity of these systems was improved by the two methods. This research will be helpful to remodel deteriorated apartment houses.

Systolic Array Processor is used for designing the special purpose processor in Digital Signal Processing, Computer Graphics, Neural Network Applications etc., since it has the characteristic of parallelism, pipeline processing and architecture of regularity. But, in case of using general design method, it has intial waiting period as large as No. of PE-1. And if the connected system needs parallel and simultaneous outputs, processor has some problems of the performance, since it generates only one output at each clock in output state. So in this paper, one dimensional Systolic Array Processor that is designed according to the dependance of data and operations using the partitioned sub-matrix is proposed for the purpose of improving the performance. 1-D Systolic Array using 4 partitioned sub-matrix has efficient method in case of considering those two problems.

In spite of many efforts, in the design of high speed fishing vessel the sea-keeping performance improvement without neglection of resistance-propulsion performance by hull form itself has its limitations. In this paper, the development of sea-keeping improving appendage pitching and trim improver for high speed planing hull on behalf of the hull form of fishing vessel has been introduced. The developed appendage verified its effectiveness in the full scale test and also has been proved the better resistance performance in the model test and full scale test.

This paper explores the possibility of improving R&D management system through researchers' satisfaction analysis. The relationship between job satisfaction and performance has traditionally been one of the engaging topics in organization psychology. However, the research results of the past showed the relatively low level of correlation between satisfaction and performance at the individual level. In contrast to these past research results, recent research results on this relationship at the organizational level revealed the higher correlation between these two factors, The present study extends this 'satisfaction and performance' hypothesis to the development and improvement of R&D management system. That is, we used the results of researchers' satisfaction analysis to devise appropriate criteria for the design and implementation of more effective R&D management systems. This paper seeks to show that we can make fruitful use of researchers' satisfaction analysis in order to choose a more effective one among alternative R&D management systems.

Purpose - This study aims to eradicate and halt the continuous life cycle of corruption. Only when ethical management policies are implemented can the business ethics system be effective and transparent. Research design, data, and methodology - The analyses and legislative measures designed by these organizations and countries were based on solid research, uncovered during my visits and interviews conducted with businessmen in those countries. Results - The main focus of in this study is as follows: First, to introduce the programs of UN, OECD, OAS, USA, and Asian countries noted for business ethics and transparency policies; Second, to define each function and problem of these countries' anti-corruption systems, including the U.S. federal government, and to examine Chinese trends. Conclusions - Ethical managements are necessary to improve business ethics. This study suggests four related areas for the purpose of discouraging bribery and corruption; these are improving global corporate governance standards, increasing financial transparency, improving good governance in the public service of the OECD member countries, and focusing on not only the supply side but also the demand side of the corruption market.

This paper presents a six sigma project for improving customer satisfaction of a franchise store. The project follows a disciplined process of five macro phase : define, measure, analyze, improve, and control(DMAIC). Due to the limitation of existing methodologies, numerous difficulties arise during the six sigma application to transactional processes. This paper expected to be helpful to service industry in which is very difficult to measure and implement.

In the web- based educational system, how to improve interaction among learners are very important by the Internet. Therefore interpersonal interaction is essential for a good educational environment. In this paper, a web-based PBL(Problem-Based Learning) system is designed and implemented to improve learner's interaction. I investigated how the method for improving interaction affect PBL activities and how students perceive the web-based PBL learning experience. The result of experiment showed that the suggested system facilitated learners' self-directed learning process and interaction.

This paper proposes the theory for the Low Cost Automation (LCA) as a intermediate process of the factory automation, where the SCA is new adaptation for the improving productivity without changing the current product lines. And also this paper deals with the case study for the predictable effects and technical method at the extruding cable lines. As the results, the implementation of the LCA theory could be acomplished saving materials and man power, improving reliability and productivity. For this facilities, it cost within 5% extra expense of a extruding cable line systems. And it could be refund in six months.
