OSS(Open source software) pursues the freedom to have access to open source and offers several advantages, over the proprietary software, to enterprises. Based upon Rogers(1995)' innovation-diffusion process, we assume that attributes of innovations includes five characteristics of innovations: relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, and observability, and that firms' perceptions of these characteristics predict the rate of adoption of OSS. To test this hypothesis, we presents a survey result from 201 companies and institutions concerning the use of OSS. Statistical analysis shows that adoption is highly correlated with each of those characteristics of innovations, but the regression analysis indicates that only compatibility and observability have effects on the adoption of OSS. This implies that intrinsic value of OSS is important, but unless the appropriate service package for improving IT environment is provided, it is not easy to change the perspective of corporate customers more favorable toward OSS use. As a conclusion, the academic and practical implications are also discussed.

Target tracking performance improvement using multi-sensor data fusion is a challenging work. However, biases in the measurements should be removed before various data fusion techniques are applied. In this paper, a bias removing algorithm using measurement data from multi-radar tracking systems is proposed and evaluated by computer simulation. To predict bias estimation performance in various geometric relations between the radar systems and target, a system observability index is proposed and tested via computer simulation results. It is also studied that target tracking which utilizes multi-sensor data fusion with bias-removed measurements results in better performance.

In this paper, we propose a bearing redundant coordinates and decoupled PD controller for 5-axes active magnetic bearing system, which consists of two bearing parts such as three-pole hybrid active magnetic bearing for stabilize the radial direction and ring-type permanent magnetic bearing stabilizing in axial and tilting motion. Based on derived system equation with decoupled control scheme, we conduct the modal analysis and measure of modal controllability and observability.

In this paper, a dead reckoning navigation system for differential drive mobile robots is presented. The navigation system consists of two incremental encoders and a gyroscope. We have built a third order polynomial function for compensating the nonlinear scale factor errors of the gyroscope. We utilize an indirect Kalman filter that feeds back estimated errors to the main navigation system. Also, the observability of the filter is analyzed in order to systematically evaluate the filter's performance. Experimental results show that the proposed navigation system provides a reliable position and heading angle by mutually compensating the encoder and the gyroscope errors. The proposed filter also reduces the computational burden and enhances the navigation system's reliability. The observability analysis confirms the characteristics of inevitably unbounded position error growth in dead reckoning navigation systems.

This paper deals with the controllability of linear and nonlinear generalized fractional dynamical systems in finite dimensional spaces. The results are obtained by using fractional calculus, Mittag-Leffler function and Schauder's fixed point theorem. Observability of linear system is also discussed. Examples are given to illustrate the theory.

Target Motion Analysis(TMA) for Passive Sonar Systems with bearing-only measurements needs to enhance system observability to improve target tracking performance by ownship maneuvering. However, tracking problem incurred by weak observaility result in slow convergence of the target estimates. On the other hand, active sonar systems do not have problem associated with system observaility. However, it drawback related to system survivability. In this paper, the algorithm that could be used in Active/passive Mixed-Mode Sonar Systems is proposed to analyze maneuvering target motion and to improve TMA performance. The proposed TMA algorithm is tested by a series of computer simulation runs and the results ...

This study found that it is critical to consider farmers' intention to adopt new technology in order to facilitate the spread of new technology. Based on this assumption, the research team analyzed the following: factors that influence intention of adoption and marginal effects on those factors. The data were collected from 99 farmers who did not participate in the pilot projects on dissemination of new technologies developed by the Rural Development Administration (RDA). A total of 19 observed variables were set to measure seven latent variables: educational support; technical support; funding support; compatibility; trialability; observability; and antipathy. The intention to adopt new technology was established as the dependent variable. According to the ordered logit analysis, educational support, observability, and antipathy were found to have significantly affected the intention to adopt new technology; their odds ratio were 6.938, 2.716, and 0.501, respectively. According to the marginal analysis, educational support, observability, and antipathy were found to have significantly affected the intention to adopt new technology; their marginal effects were 20.2 %, 10.4 %, and -7.2 %, respectively. Therefore, this study suggests the following to facilitate the spread of new technology: first, provide quality support services through effective deduction; second, increase the visibility of new technology; and third, enhance the credibility of agricultural institutions by developing continuous relations with farmers to reduce their antipathy.

Testability analysis computes controllabilities and observabilities of all lines of a circuit and then evaluates fault coverage. The values of controllability and observability as well as fault coverage produced by testability analysis are used for applications of testability analysis. ITEM was evaluated as a fault coverage tool. But the values of controllability and observability at all lines of circuits must be estimated as a performance measure of testability tools for another application such as partial scan. In this paper, partial scan method based on sensitivity analysis which estimates relative improvement of detectability of circuits after scanning a flip-flop is used for performance evaluation of ITEM. Performance of ITEM, with respect to testability values on each net, has been measured by comparing ITEM and STAFAN. Partial scan performance achieved by ITEM is very similar to that of STAFAN, but ITEM takes less CPU time. Therefore ITEM is very efficient for partial scan application because ITEM runs faster for very large circuits in which execution time is critical.

This paper proposes a simple method to measure system's performance in target tracking problems. Essentially employing the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) on trakcing accuracy, an algorithm of predicting system's performance under various scenarios is developed. The input data is a collection of measurements over time fromsensors embedded in gaussian noise. The target of interest may not maneuver over the processing time interval while the own ship observing platform may maneuver in an arbitrary fashion. Th eproposed approach is demonstrated and discussed through simulation results.

A side mirror is an important safety tool with which the driver can observe objects out of sight. This paper presents an organized design technology for the side mirror of improved vibration characteristics. Resonance response to forced vibration is critical to observability through the mirror to be designed. This study aims at the reduction of vibration level by the modification of mirror structures and consequent effects are predicted by computer simulations. We used a three-dimensional solid modeling and the modal and frequency analysis ; Pro/Engineer is used as a solid modeler; Pro/Mechanica for vibration analysis. The simulation results are compared with those obtained in experiemnts to check the validity by the three-dimensional modeling. The design technique of side mirror has been established and found to be effective in vibration analysis of redesigned parts.
