Cooperative query answering is a research effort to develop a fault-tolerant and intelligent database system using the semantic knowledge base constructed from the underlying database. Such knowledge base has two aspects of usage. One is supporting the cooperative query answering Process for providing both an exact answer and neighborhood information relevant to a query. The other is supporting ongoing maintenance of the knowledge base for accommodating the changes in the knowledge content and database usage purpose. Existing studies have mostly focused on the cooperative query answering process but paid little attention on the dynamic knowledge base maintenance. This paper proposes a multi-level knowledge representation framework called Knowledge Abstraction Hierarchy (KAH) that can not only support cooperative query answering but also permit dynamic knowledge maintenance. The KAH consists of two types of knowledge abstraction hierarchies. The value abstraction hierarchy is constructed by abstract values that are hierarchically derived from specific data values in the underlying database on the basis of generalization and specialization relationships. The domain abstraction hierarchy is built on the various domains of the data values and incorporates the classification relationship between super-domains and sub-domains. On the basis of the KAH, a knowledge abstraction database is constructed on the relational data model and accommodates diverse knowledge maintenance needs and flexibly facilitates cooperative query answering. In terms of the knowledge maintenance, database operations are discussed for the cases where either the internal contents for a given KAH change or the structures of the KAH itself change. In terms of cooperative query answering, database operations are discussed for both the generalization and specialization Processes, and the conceptual query handling. A prototype system has been implemented at KAIST that demonstrates the usefulness of KAH in ordinary database application systems.

Material selection is one of the important activities in design and manufacturing. A selected material at the conceptual design stage affects functionality of the designed part as well as manufacturability and cost of the final product. Unfortunately there are not many accessible material databases that can be used for design. In this research, a web-based material database was constructed. In order to assist designers to compare different materials, two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphs were provided via the web browser Using these graphical tools, multi-dimensional comparison was available in more intuitive manner. As a case study, this system was applied for material selection of an automotive engine pulley.

To provide environmental safety of materials, the database included National Fire Protection Association publication Standard No.704. The web-based tool is available at http://fab.snu.ac.kr/matdb.

This paper discusses how to design a game server that is scalable, adaptable, and re-buildable with components. Furthermore, it explains how various implementation issues were resolved. To support adaptability, the server comprises three layers: network, user, and database. To ensure independence between the layers, each layer was designed to communicate with each other only via message queues. In this architecture, each layer can have an arbitrary number of threads; thus, scalability is guaranteed for each layer. The network layer uses input/output completion ports(IOCP), which shows the best performance on the Windows platform, it can handle up to 5,000 simultaneous connections on a typical entry-level computer, despite being built with a single-threaded user layer. To completely separate the database from the game server, the SQL code was not directly embedded in the database layer.

As the multimedia application services have been getting various in Internet, need of multimedia database management system which can manage various multimedia information effectively has been increased. The multimedia application generally needs the features to store, manage, retrieve the multimedia data. We need a database management system framework that may be easily integrated with these features. This paper proposes th database management system framework providing the easy integration with various multimedia information retrieval. The framework uses OQL as the retrieval interface, so that user can use it easily. It can be integrated dynamically and easily with various multimedia retrieval method as a loosely coupled system. In addition there is no performance degradation caused in a loosely coupled system.

We designed and implemented a medical image query system, including a relational database and DBMS (database management system), which can visualize image data and can achieve spatial, attribute, and mixed queries. Image data used in querying can be visualized in slice, MPR(multi-planner reformat), volume rendering, and overlapping on the query system. To reduce spatial cost and processing time in the system. brain images are spatially clustered, by an adaptive Hilbert curve filling, encoded, and stored to its database without loss for spatial query. Because the query is often applied to small image regions of interest(ROI's), the technique provides higher compression rate and less processing time in the cases.

E-Catalogs are often duplicated in multiple database systems due to various reasons. This causes the problem of assuring ACID properties of global transactions in multi-database management systems. We suggest a log-based synchronization mechanism for a special situation that catalogs can be changed only in one system and the changes spread to other systems. We have defined several conditions that have to be satisfied to assure the synchronization of the information. We show that the information can be kept identical in a delayed manner if synchronization module fulfills the defined conditions. Finally we show that the suggested mechanism is useful by showing a real world application that uses this synchronization mechanism in e-commerce environment.

최근, 정보 보호의 중요성이 부각됨에 따라 현재 웹 데이터 교환의 표준인 XML 데이터에 대한 보안과 접근 제어 기법이 주요 연구로 부상하고 있으며 연구의 초점은 안전함을 보장하면서, 동시에 부가적인 비용 증가를 줄이는데 있다. 그렇지만 이러한 연구의 방식에서는 인덱스를 고려하지 않기 때문에 불필요한 탐색은 물론 데이터 증가에 따른 탐색 비용이 증가한다. 따라서 이 연구에서는 XPath의 원리를 기반으로 인덱스와 접근제어를 동시에 고려하는 인덱스 기반의 접근 제어 맵을 제안하고, 이 기법을 관계형 데이터베이스에 적용하여 구현하였다.

This is a practical study on acquisition and efficiently use of CD-ROM databases of diverse subject areas which in recent has rapidly increased in quantity. This study was concentrated on the proposition of production CD-ROM database and intended to give effective ideas of its design. I analysed and compared several CD-ROM databases in aspects of their menu configuration and information retrieval technics, so that may present a rational norm.

As one of the most widely used technology in the world right now, Face recognition has already received widespread attention by all the researcher and institutes. It has been used in many fields such as safety protection, surveillance system, crime control and even in our ordinary life such as home security and so on. This technology with today's technology has advantages such as high connectivity and real time transformation. But we still need to improve its recognition rate, reaction time and also reduce impact of different environmental status to the whole system. So in this paper we proposed a face recognition system model with improved CNN which combining the characteristics of flat network and residual network, integrated learning, simplify network structure and enhance portability and also improve the recognition accuracy. We also used AR and ORL database to do the experiment and result shows higher recognition rate, efficiency and robustness for different image conditions.
