  • Data conversion refers to the process of extracting the data existing in the existing system, that is, the past data accumulated by the old information system or other methods and transferring it to the improved table of the new system. The person in charge of data conversion refers to the entire process of converting to the final destination table according to the rules designed/planned in advance. In most cases, data conversion design should be consider when the old system replace or the data of another existing system is converted and applied to a newly constructed information system. The goal of data conversion is to understand the current database system of operating environment, understand the characteristics of the DBMS in use, maintain the optimal database structure, and make the new system perform at its best. Data conversion methods are largely divide into a method using a tool and a conversion method using a program preparation. In this paper, we examine the advantages and disadvantages of the data conversion method, and try to derive the problems of the existing data conversion method. Based on this, an improved data conversion method for the system upgrade project was proposed, and verified through a questionnaire of an IT expert to prove its effectiveness

  • In this paper, we design a digitally pre-distorted RF power amplifier operating in 900 MHz band. The linearity of RF power amplifier is improved by employing the digital pre-distortion(DPD) based on affine projection(AP) algorithm, where the look-up table(LUT) method is used with non-linear indexing. The proposed DPD with AP algorithm is compared with that with normalized least mean square(NLMS) algorithm, applied to the RF power amplifier. A commercial power amplifier module is used for verification of the proposed algorithm which shows improvement of adjacent channel leakage ratio(ACLR) by about 21 dB.

  • Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system application is expanded to food chain from farm to table to supply safe livestock products with consumers in Korea. The objectives of this study were to analyze the HACCP operating conditions in butcher shops and to suggest for better HACCP implementation. We analyzed the HACCP inspection reports for butcher shops implemented by the Korea Livestock Products HACCP Accreditation Service from 2007 to 2009 and from 2010 to 2012 to compare the rate of HACCP non-compliances. The overall rate of non-compliances was higher in 2010~2012 than 2007~2009. The current inadequate HACCP operating level was directly related with the business size. Ninety-nine percent of the butcher shops were very small business with under 10 employees in Korea, and these small-sized businesses usually had great difficulties in implementing HACCP due to lack of technical expertise and financial resources. To overcome the obstacles and to facilitate more effective HACCP application and operation in butcher shops, government should play a leading role in developing flexible and simplified HACCP-based system which merges both the pre-requisite and HACCP principles.

  • This paper presents a novel approach to economic dispatch (ED) with nonconvex fuel cost function as combinatorial optimization problems (COP) while most of the conventional researches have been developed as function optimization problems (FOP). One nonconvex fuel cost function can be divided into several convex fuel cost functions, and each convex function can be regarded as a generation type (G-type). In that case, ED with nonconvex fuel cost function can be considered as COP finding the best case among all feasible combinations of G-types. In this paper, a genetic algorithm is applied to solve the COP, and the ${\lambda}-P$ function method is used to calculate ED for the fitness function of GA. The ${\lambda}-P$ function method is reviewed briefly and the GA procedure for COP is explained in detail. This paper deals with two kinds of ED problems, namely ED with multiple fuel units (EDMF) and ED with prohibited operating zones (EDPOZ). The proposed method is tested for all the ED problems, and the test results show an improvement in solution cost compared to the results obtained from conventional algorithms.

  • Records management professionals and scholars have emphasized the necessity of managing data set in administrative information systems as records, but it has not been practiced in the actual field. Applying paper-based records management standards and guidelines to data set management proved to be a difficult task because of technology-dependent characteristics, vast scale, and various operating environments. Therefore, the data set requires a management system that can accommodate the inherent characteristics of records and can be practically applied. This study developed and presented data set management methods and procedures based on the analysis of data set in public administrative information systems operating in public institutions.

  • IC 카드의 하드웨어적인 제약으로 대부분의 IC 카드는 대칭키 알고리즘을 사용하고 있지만 IC 카드 하드웨어 제조 기술의 발전으로 앞으로는 보안성이 우수한 비대 칭키 알고리즘이 많이 사용될 것이다. 그리고 IC 카드의 가장 큰 제약적 중 하나는 메모리 용량의 한계이다. 따라서 보안상 안전하면서도 메모리를 적게 사용하는 IC 카드 운영체제의 구현을 중요한 문제이다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 다양한 종류의 키 알고리즘을 수용할 수 있는 키 파일 탐색 기법을 제안하였다. 또한 데이터 파일 헤더에 잠금 필드를 삽입하여 보안성을 향상시켰으며 메모리 사용량을 줄일 수 있도록 데이터 파일 헤더만을 이용한 파일 탐색 기법과 자유 공간 탐색 기법을 제안하였다. Because of the evolution of IC card hardware fabrication technologies IC card will be able to accept asymmetric key encryption algorithm in the future. One of the most restrictive points of IC card is memory capacity. Therefore it is an important problem to design a secure IC card operating system using memory in small. In this paper we proposed a key file search mechanism using a key length field inserted in a key file header structure. The key file search mechanism makes IC card execute any key-based encryption algorithm. In addition we proposed inserting a lock field in data file header structure. The lock field intensifies the security of a data file. Finally we proposed a data file search mechanism and free space search mechanism using only data file header. The file system using these mechanisms spends smaller memory than that using a file description table and record of unallocated space.

  • Many modern hydraulic excavators now use EPPRVs (Electronic Proportional Pressure Reducing Valves) in their pilot systems to control the spool displacement of the main hydraulic system. However, the performance of these systems is often limited by factors such as magnetic hysteresis, mechanical wear, and transient responses influenced by operating conditions and component installation. This paper presents a pressure feedback controller for excavator pilot systems that utilize EPPRVs. This controller significantly reduces steady-state pressure control errors and mitigates the hysteresis effects commonly seen in traditional open-loop systems. To achieve this, we integrated EPPRVs with the main hydraulic valve and injected a chirp signal into the solenoid current. By doing so, we were able to measure the frequency response of the pilot system across different operating pressures and estimate the system dynamics model. Using these models, we designed a set of PI pressure feedback controllers that are guaranteed to be stable. These controllers were then integrated with a gain scheduler based on a lookup table. Experimental results demonstrate that when the developed pressure feedback controller is incorporated into the conventional open-loop controller, it effectively reduces steady-state pressure control errors and mitigates hysteresis.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors predictive of alterations in skin integrity during the intraoperative period. The predictive risk factors were studied for intraoperative pressure sores from December 1998 through January 1999. A sample of 220 patients was selected from the operating room schedule of a University Hospital in Pusan. There were two criteria in including patients : the operation lasted longer than 2 hours and the absence of skin break-down according to NPUAP criteria. The data were analized by SPSS/PC, Stepwise multiple logistic regression was used to identify the variables which were predictive of alterations in skin integrity. Of the 220 patients studied, 41 patients (18.6%) developed stage 1 pressure sores in the immediate postoperative period. In relation to skin changes, three independent variables emerged from the stepwise multiple logistic regression as being significant (p<0.05). Factors predictive of pressure sore formation included low serum albumin(p=0.000), prone position while undergoing surgery(p=0.0004), time on the operating table(p=0.0165). Among the intrinsic factors, serum albumin was the most significant causal factor in pressure sores development in the intra-operative period. Pressure and shearing force were the most significant extrinsic factors in pressure sores development. From the results of this study we concluded that the primary nursing goal is the maintenance of the proper patient' position during the intraoperative period. Also imperative for sore prevention is the reduction of surgery time and improving preoperative nutritional status.

  • When we introduce the BRT systems, it is very important to decide the operating factors, such as bus-stop locations or headway. If the factors are inappropriate, unessential expenses for the operator and users of the bus line may be caused, and it leads increase of social total cost. So, it is necessary that we consider users' origin and destination of each bus line when we set location of bus-stops and the optimal headway. Meanwhile, Smart Card System was introduced of fare collection for the Public Transportation Reform in Seoul last year. This new card system makes it possible to store up the information about bus operating and passenger's trip link. With these substantial information. we can estimate bus-stop-based O-D table. So, in this thesis, it was studied a systematic methodology to find the optimal location and headway for skip-stop bus system (as a type of first step for BRT). The proposed methodology in this thesis is expected to be useful to effect analysis or setting operating factors for skip-stop bus system in each bus line.

  • Background: C-arm fluoroscope has been widely used to promote more effective pain management; however, unwanted radiation exposure for operators is inevitable. We prospectively investigated the differences in radiation exposure related to collimation in Medial Branch Block (MBB). Methods: This study was a randomized controlled trial of 62 MBBs at L3, 4 and 5. After the patient was laid in the prone position on the operating table, MBB was conducted and only AP projections of the fluoroscope were used. Based on a concealed random number table, MBB was performed with (collimation group) and without (control group) collimation. The data on the patient's age, height, gender, laterality (right/left), radiation absorbed dose (RAD), exposure time, distance from the center of the field to the operator, and effective dose (ED) at the side of the table and at the operator's chest were collected. The brightness of the fluoroscopic image was evaluated with histogram in Photoshop. Results: There were no significant differences in age, height, weight, male to female ratio, laterality, time, distance and brightness of fluoroscopic image. The area of the fluoroscopic image with collimation was 67% of the conventional image. The RAD ($29.9{\pm}13.0$, P = 0.001) and the ED at the left chest of the operators ($0.53{\pm}0.71$, P = 0.042) and beside the table ($5.69{\pm}4.6$, P = 0.025) in collimation group were lower than that of the control group ($44.6{\pm}19.0$, $0.97{\pm}0.92$, and $9.53{\pm}8.16$), resepectively. Conclusions: Collimation reduced radiation exposure and maintained the image quality. Therefore, the proper use of collimation will be beneficial to both patients and operators.
