By managing not only geographical information but also various kinds of attribute data. GIS presents useful information for decision-makings. Most of decision-making problems using GIS can be formulated into network-optimization problems. In this study we deal with the implementation of network optimization system that extracts data from the database in GIS. solves a network optimization problem and present optimal solutions through GIS' graphical user interface. We design a nitwork optimization system and present some implementation techniques by showing a prototype of the network optimization system. Our network optimization system consists of three components : the interface module for user and GIS the basic network the program module the advanced network optimization program module. To handle large-scale networks the program module including various techniques for large sparse networks is also considered, For the implementation of the network optimization system we consider two approaches : the method using script languages supported by GIS and the method using client tools of GIS. Finally some execution results displayed by the prototype version of network optimization system are given.

Optimal design of an automotive catalytic converter for minimization of cold-start emissions is numerically performed using a micro genetic algorithm for two optimization problems: optimal geometry design of the monolith for various operating conditions and optimal axial catalyst distribution. The optimal design process considered in this study consists of three modules: analysis, optimization, and control. The analysis module is used to evaluate the objective functions with a one-dimensional single channel model and the Romberg integration method. It obtains new design variables from the control module, produces the CO cumulative emissions and the integral value of a catalyst distribution function over the monolith volume, and provides objective function values to the control module. The optimal design variables for minimizing the objective functions are determined by the optimization module using a micro genetic algorithm. The control module manages the optimal design process that mainly takes place in both the analysis and optimization modules.

A nation-wide water-energy-food (WEF) nexus simulation model has been developed by the authors and successfully applied to South Korea to predict the sustainability of those three resources in the next 30 years. The model was also capable of simulating future scenarios of resources allocation based on priority rules aiming to maximize resources sustainability. However, the process was still relying on several assumptions and trial-and-error approach, which sometimes resulted in non-optimal solutions of resources allocation. In this study, an optimization module was introduced to enhance the model in generating optimal resources management rules. The objective of the optimization was to maximize the reliability index of resources by determining the resources' allocation and/or priority rules for each demand type that accordingly reflect the resources management policies. Implementation of the optimization module would result in balanced allocation and management of limited resources and assist the stakeholders in deciding resources' management plans, either by fulfilling the domestic production or by global trading.

A PC based software, the RTP Research Tool Box (RTB), was developed for IMRT optimization research. The software was consisted of an image module, a beam registration module, a dose calculation module, a dose optimization module and a dose display module. The modules and the Graphical User Interface (GUI) were designed to easily amendable by negotiating the speed of performing tasks. Each module can be easily replaced to new functions for research purpose. IDL 5.5 (RSI, USA) language was used for this software. Five major modules enable one to perform the research on the dose calculation, on the dose optimization and on the objective function. The comparison of three cost functions, such as the uncomplicated tumor control probability (UTCP), the physical objective function and the pseudo-biological objective function, which was designed in this study, were performed with the RTB. The optimizations were compared to the simulated annealing and the gradient search optimization technique for all of the optimization objective functions. No significant differences were found among the objective functions with the dose gradient search technique. But the DVH analysis showed that the pseudo-biological objective function is superior to the physical objective function when with the simulated annealing for the optimization.

최근 이동통신 가입자의 증가로 인해 기지국의 수요도 증가하게 되었다. 하지만 기지국 설치 장소의 부족으로 인해 이동통신모듈의 크기가 소형화 되어야 할 필요성이 생겼다. 이동통신모듈의 소형화를 위해서는 모듈 겉면에 부착된 히트싱크의 크기가 소형화 되어야 한다. 또한 모듈의 열적 안정성을 보장하기 위해 설치된 전자부품의 온도가 허용온도보다 낮아야 한다. 이를 위해 상용 PIDO(Process Integration and Design Optimization) 툴인 PIAnO와 전산유체역학 프로그램인 FLOTHERM을 사용하여 전자부품의 온도를 허용온도보다 낮게 유지시키면서 히트싱크의 부피를 최소화하였다. 그 결과, 이동통신 모듈에 설치된 전자부품의 허용온도를 만족하면서 모듈의 부피를 41.9% 감소시킬 수 있었다.

Truss-Z (TZ) is an Extremely Modular System (EMS). Such systems allow for creation of structurally sound free-form structures, are comprised of as few types of modules as possible, and are not constrained by a regular tessellation of space. Their objective is to create spatial structures in given environments connecting given terminals without self-intersections and obstacle-intersections. TZ is a skeletal modular system for creating free-form pedestrian ramps and ramp networks. The previous research on TZ focused on global discrete geometric optimization of the spatial configuration of modules. This paper reports on the first attempts at structural optimization of the module for a single-branch TZ. The internal topology and the sizing of module beams are subject to optimization. An important challenge is that the module is to be universal: it must be designed for the worst case scenario, as defined by the module position within a TZ branch and the geometric configuration of the branch itself. There are four variations of each module, and the number of unique TZ configurations grows exponentially with the branch length. The aim is to obtain minimum-mass modules with the von Mises equivalent stress constrained under certain design load. The resulting modules are further evaluated also in terms of the typical structural criterion of compliance.

This paper describes three modules for development of the Space Frame Integrated Design System(SFIDS). The Control Module is implemented to control the developed system. The Model Generation Module based on PATRAN user interface enables users to generate a complicated finite element model for space frame structures. The Optimum Design Module base on a branch of combinatorial optimization techniques which can realize the optimization of a structure having a large number of members designs optimum members of a space frame after evaluating analysis results. The Control Module and the Model Generation Module Is implemented by PATRAN Command Language(PCL) while C++ language is used in the Optimum Design Module. The core of the system is PATRAN database, in which the Model Generation Module creates information of a finite element model. Then, PATRAN creates Input files needed for the analysis program from the information of the finite element model in the database, and in turn, imports output results of analysis program to the database. Finally, the Optimum Design Module processes member grouping of a space frame based on the output results, and performs optimal member selection of a space frame. This process is repeated until the desired optimum structural members are obtained.

시스템 최적화는 소스코드의 변경 없이 중복된 모듈을 추출하고, 추출된 모듈의 재사용을 위하여 프로그램의 구조를 변경하는 기법이다. 구조지향 개발과 객체지향 개발은 크로스커팅 영역의 모듈화에는 효율적이나 크로스커팅 개념을 모듈화 할 수 없다. 기존 시스템에서 크로스커팅 개념을 적용하기 위해, 각 시스템 내에 분산되어 있는 시스템 최적화 대상 모듈을 크로스커팅 영역으로 추출하는 기술이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 개발이 완료된 시스템에서 중복 모듈을 추출하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 소스코드 분석을 통해 데이터 의존관계와 제어 의존관계를 분석하여 중복되는 요소를 추출한다. 추출된 중복된 요소는 시스템 최적화를 위하여 프로그램 의존 관계 분석에 사용될 수 있다. 중복된 의존관계 분석 결과는 제어 흐름 그래프로 변환되며, 이를 활용하여 최소 크로스커팅 모듈을 생성할 수 있다. 의존 관계 분석을 통해 추출된 요소는 크로스커팅 영역 모듈로 설정함으로써 시스템 내 중복된 코드를 최소화 할 수 있는 시스템 최적화 방법을 제시한다.
