Many enterprises are interested in using the IS development methodologies as a means of increasing system performance and solving the problems of delayed delivery time, excessive budget, and failure of integrated systems. Even if previous researches showed that the system productivity and quality improvement using the system development methodologies are very poor, we tried to find that the methodologies are meaningful as an innovative means for IS performance. We defined that the IS development methodology as a technical and managerial innovation for IS department. We intended to study the relationship between the implementation process of the IS development methodology divided into four steps and IS performance. A cross-sectional field survey with IS departments of domestic companies was conducted, and we used LISREL 8.12a to perform the structural equation model analysis and hypothesis verification. We found the meaningful relationship between the development methodology and qualitative performance. We reconfirmed that the relationship between the development methodology and quantitative performance is not meaningful as expected, which is the same result with the previous researches. But the qualitative performance affects very strongly to the quantitative performance. As a results, we suggest that IS managers and developers keep the principles of the IS development methodologies to get the quantitative performance through the qualitative performance improvement.

Development of social overhead capital (SOC) requires huge national finance, and performance issues such as cost-efficiency, safety, and environment have been constantly raised. However, currently each construction client has limited access to its own projects' performance without analytic methodology for industry-level comparisons and benchmarking for improvement. To overcome this problem, this study proposes a comprehensive performance analysis framework for post-evaluation of large-scale construction projects. To this end, this study performed a case study of advanced countries (the U.S., the U.K. and Japan) and consultation with related experts to develop a tailored performance analysis framework for the Post- Construction Evaluation and Management system in Korea. The developed framework covers three categories (project performance, project efficiency, and ripple effect), nine areas (cost, schedule, change, safety, quality, demand, benefit-cost ratio, civil complaint, and defect), and 31 detailed metrics. Using industry-level project performance database and statistical techniques, the proposed framework can be used not only to diagnose excellent and unsatisfactory performance areas for completed construction projects, but also to provide reference data for future similar projects. This study can contribute to the improvement of clients' performance management practices and effectiveness of construction projects.

The present study was conducted on the improvement of the heat transfer performance of double pipe heat exchangers with helical insert device. Double pipe heat exchangers with helical insert device were studied for improvement of the heat transfer performance of double pipe heat exchangers with helical insert device and plain double pipe heat exchangers were also studied to comparatively analyze heat transfer performance. Experimental results were derived on changes in the Reynold's numbers of the cooling water flowing in helical and plain double pipe heat exchangers and changes in the heat flux of the air. Thereafter, to verify the reliability of the experimental results, the theoretical total energy and the experimental total energy were comparatively analyzed and the following results were derived. The thermal energy of the calorie lost by the hot air and that of the calorie obtained by the cooling water were well balanced. The experiments of plain double pipe heat exchangers and double pipe heat exchangers with helical insert device were conducted under normal conditions and the theoretical overall heat transfer coefficient value and the experimental overall heat transfer coefficient value coincided well with each other. In both plain double pipe heat exchangers and double pipe heat exchangers with helical insert device, heat transfer rates increased as the cooling water flow velocity increased. Under the same experimental conditions, the heat transfer performance of double pipe heat exchangers with helical insert device was shown to be higher by approximately 1.5 times than that of plain double pipe heat exchangers.

Purpose: G-SEED's evaluation of existing buildings in Korea is an important point because the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of existing buildings are continuously increasing due to the aging of buildings over time. In 2016, the government has set up a 'Green Remodeling Certification Standard' in G-SEED in order to revitalize the green remodeling business of existing buildings. As a result, G-SEED is distinguished between buildings with green remodeling and buildings with general remodeling. Therefore, this study analyzed the system of the certification of the green remodeling building which is aimed at improving the performance of the building. Method: First, we analyze characteristics of the existing building certification standards of G-SEED(Korea), LEED(USA), and BREEAM(UK). Second, the evaluation criteria are based on the G-SEED Green Remodeling Certification, 2016, LEED for BD + C: New construction and major renovation v.4, BREEAM UK Non-Domestic Refurbishment and Fit-out 2014. Based on the analysis results, we propose the improvement direction of G-SEED Green Remodeling Certification Standard. Result: Existing buildings should be classified into 'existing building certification' for re-certification and 'green remodeling certification' accompanied by building performance improvement. In addition, building green buildings through performance improvement should include not only energy performance, but also creating a pleasant indoor environment and minimizing environmental impact. Finally, existing buildings have accumulated information on energy and resource use, and a performance improvement plan should be established based on this information.

This paper aims to present the way to bring about significant results through performance improvement of learning algorithm in the research applying to machine learning. Research papers showing the results from machine learning methods were collected as data for this case study. In addition, suitable machine learning methods for each field were selected and suggested in this paper. As a result, SVM for engineering, decision-making tree algorithm for medical science, and SVM for other fields showed their efficiency in terms of their frequent use cases and classification/prediction. By analyzing cases of machine learning application, general characterization of application plans is drawn. Machine learning application has three steps: (1) data collection; (2) data learning through algorithm; and (3) significance test on algorithm. Performance is improved in each step by combining algorithm. Ways of performance improvement are classified as multiple machine learning structure modeling, $+{\alpha}$ machine learning structure modeling, and so forth.

Korean fishing boats have had appropriate hull forms for the safety, stability and convenience of fishing ability. However, Korean fishermen are recently concerned about the resistance performance and speed of Korean fishing boats, because the prices of fuel oil are gradually risen, also the exhausting of fish resources and the demand of high speed fishing boats are increased. Therefore, the necessity of the study on the improvement of resistance performance for Korean small coastal fishing boats is gradually increased. This study compares the hull form characteristics of Korean fishing boats with those of Japanese fishing boats, and the hull form of a representative Korean fishing boat is modified. From the modification of the hull form parameters for the Korean fishing boat, the improvement of resistance performances is evaluated. Moreover, the increase of resistance performances is also achieved from the modification of local characteristics for the hull form of the Korean fishing boat. A computational method and ship model tests in towing tank are used for the conformations of the improvement of resistance performance.

The national R&D project is a major strategy for the development of science and technology in the country. This is promoted for the purpose of improving the welfare of the people, such as creating jobs and fostering small and medium-sized enterprises, through the results of science and technology research conducted with support from the national budget. Therefore, analysis of the performance evaluation and budgeting system of the current national R&D project is one of the essential parts of preparing a system improvement plan. This study derived improvement plans through a comparative analysis of national R&D project performance evaluation and budget systems in Korea and leading countries such as the United States and Japan. As a result, it was confirmed that it may be difficult to derive innovative research results due to the lack of sustainability and a short period of time to require quantitative performance. To overcome these difficulties, the need for system improvement as follows was suggested. First, it is necessary to enlarge and prolong national R&D projects. Second, a plan for securing sustainability is needed in consideration of the main characteristics of each research field. Finally, it is necessary to strengthen the linkage between organizations in charge of national R&D projects. And also, there is a need for a system that can continuously identify problems and improve the system. In addition, the constitutional amendment will be necessary to separate science and technology from economic development, which states that Article 127, Paragraph 1, "Science and technology should be subordinated to economic development," which is the science and technology article of the current constitution.
