The concern on sustainable development is increased to solve the global warming which is environmental issue over nations. Sustainable development is the concept of minimizing the consumption of resource and environment burden. In transportation, there are some trials of shifting to green transportation mode through low energy consumption and high efficiency. Korea Tilting Train eXpress (TTX) can run higher speed than existing train and save energy through light weight. In this study, Tilting bogie, the core equipment of tilting train, was compared with that of existing train.

Green ocean is one of the main issues internationally. Most governments are leading the role in boosting the economy through creating new green market and establishing system of coping with increasing international environmental regulation. Green ocean, which is a solution for the environmental issue of global warming, is applied throughout the industry. Domestic transportation industry including railway is also developing technology for creating green ocean. Transportation must decrease energy consumption at running stages because it shows high environmental loads expecially on using stages during its life cycle. Therefore, There are some tries for developing technologies; new engine through alternative energies, hybrid and lightweight. Railway transportation can not be exception. it is intended for this paper to suggest the direction of manufacturing environmentally friendly railway vehicle through the global warming effect evaluation of several materials being applied to vehicle and comparison of the results.

Architectural design work depends on information made from earlier phases such as feasibility study, planning, and conceptual design. This design guideline information includes design objectives, requirements, and constraints made by decision-making, and has great influence on various works of latter phases of design process. Despite of this cognition, however, the lack of design guideline information management still remains as one among the critical issues in design area. Design tools with design guideline information do not also address the issue of interoperability throughout the life-cycle of buildings. The purpose of this research is to propose a method for design guideline information management by using the IFC technology and IFC Property set (Pset) extension mechanism. The method comprises defining and mapping the practically used design guideline items and extensible IFC data model, and includes the management of relationships that exist between design guideline information and design model in the IFC data model.

Exchange of product model data becomes a key issue in the globalized enterprise environment. Sharing heterogeneous information resides in diverse information resources is not easy. To share automotive product information among different organizations, a reliable neutral information standard and communication methods are needed. World wide sharing of automotive product information can be implemented based on the STEP AP214, the standard for exchange of automotive product model through its whole life cycle. This paper suggests an automotive PDM implemented on the internet and based on the STEP AP214. Physical files containing design data can be shared on the internet using JAVA applets and VRML.

Modern combat (or commertial) aircraft systems consist of a large number of sophisticated and complex avionics/electronics subsystems. The US Air Force of Productivity, Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (PRAM) reports that 25 to 45 percent of aircraft system failures in the electronics or electromechanical area 〔Kachmar, 1985〕. It is an important issue to achive the required reliability and maintainability for avionics/electronics subsystems in order to guarantee the mission success during the life cycle in a timely and cost effective manner. The issuance of USAF Mil-A-87244, "Avionics/Electronic Integrity Program requirements," 1987 demands a new approach called "Avionics/Electronics Integrity Program" (AVIP). The objective of this paper is to give a tutorial presentation on the basic aspects of Avionics/Electronics Integrity efforts in relation to total quality management of avionics/electronics whose performance measures are expressed in terms of reliability, durability, and matainability.

The purposes of this study were to examine the perception of usefulness and the use degree of search and purchase about internet shopping of housewives. Specifically, this study analyzes the trend of the perception of usefulness and the use degree of internet shopping, and closely examines the influential factors. The major findings are follows: (1) Those who are college-educated, employed, positive about household informationalization, internet-educated, highly capable of the internet, and comfortable with an issue of an effluence of personal data showed high perception of usefulness of internet shopping. (2) Those who are young, college-educated, and employed showed the high use degree of search. Those who are age 20 to 30, college-educated, employed, and at the early stage of family life cycle showed the high use degree of purchase. In addition, those who are positive about household informationalization high in the tendency of innovation and the awareness of time constaints, exposed to the internet education, high in the internet capability, and low in a burden of the internet bills and the effluence of personal data showed the high use degree of search and purchase.

Sustainable computing is a rapidly expanding field of research covering the fields of multidisciplinary engineering. With the rapid adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, issues such as security, privacy, efficiency, and green computing infrastructure are increasing day by day. To achieve a sustainable computing ecosystem for future smart cities, it is important to take into account their entire life cycle from design and manufacturing to recycling and disposal as well as their wider impact on humans and the places around them. The energy efficiency aspects of the computing system range from electronic circuits to applications for systems covering small IoT devices up to large data centers. This editorial focuses on the security, privacy, and efficiency of sustainable computing for future smart cities. This issue accepted 17 articles after a rigorous review process.

It is widely known that usability is a critical quality attribute of IT systems. Many studies have developed various methods for finding out usability problems. Usability professionals have emphasized that usability should be integrated into the development life cycle in order to maximize the usability of systems with minimal cost. To achieve this, it is essential to classify usability problems systematically and connect them into the activities of designing user interfaces and tasks. However, there is a lack of framework or method for these two problems and thus remains a challengeable research issue. As a beginning study, this paper proposes a conceptual framework for addressing the two issues. We firstly summarize usability-related studies so far, including usability factors and evaluation methods. Secondly, we review seven approaches to identifying and classifying usability problems. Based on this review and opinions of usability engineers in real industry as well as the review results, this paper proposes a framework comprising three viewpoints, from which more sound classification scheme of usability problems can be inductively developed.

In the current software project, it is still very difficult to extract and define clear requirements in the requirement engineering. Informal requirements documents based on natural language can be interpreted in different meanings depending on the degree of understanding or maturity level of the requirements analyst. Also, Furthermore, as the project progresses, requirements continue to change from the customer. This change in requirements is a catastrophic failure from a management perspective in software projects. In the situation of frequent requirements changes, a current issue of requirements engineering area is how to make clear requirements with unclear and ambigousrequirements. To solve this problem, we propose to extract and redefine clear requirements by incorporating Design Thinking methodologies into requirements engineering. We expect to have higher possibilities to improve software quality by redefining requirements that are ambiously and unclearly defined.
