The industry is becoming more competitive and it is essential for any organization to continuously improve in order to stay competitive. As an effort to increase their technical and managenial capabilities, many organizations have been trying to adobt 'new knowledge' coming out of research and implementing it to their business processes. It is a common belif that tins theme of 'Knowledge Management' is helpful in keeping organizations healthy and competitive. This study was performed in the context of 'Knowledge Management'. This paper will describe the development process of the CII Knowledge Structure which was developed by CII to help its member organizations become incresingly 'knowlege-oriented'. The CII Knowldege Structure systematically organizes 'knowledge' that has been produced from various CII Research. Structure and contents of the CII Knowledge Structure and the implications of development of the Knowledge Structure will also be discussed in this paper.

This paper concerns about how and why design frameworks for optimization should consider various software development environments such as MATLAB, VB, VBscript, Python, Tcl, PHP, Perl, and JAVA. The frameworks can be utilized by many engineers who have a basic concept about the optimization theory and/or basic knowledge about the computer programming languages. The framework will integrate a number of remote CAE tools, automatically execute them for design optimization, and have the capabilities of post-processing of data such as objective functions, state variables and design variables using a third-party spreadsheet program like Excel. The prototype framework developed in this study will be applied to various examples of optimization problems and show the validity of the proposed method of a framework implemenation.
