  • In this Paper, we develop an improved branch and bound algorithm for the (un)weighted unconstrained two-dimensional cutting problem. In the proposed algorithm, we improve the branching strategies of the existing exact algorithm and reduce the size of problem by removing the dominated pieces from the problem. We apply the newly Proposed definition of dominated cutting pattern and it can reduce the number of nodes that must be searched during the algorithm procedure. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is presented through comparison with the exact algorithm known as the most efficient.

  • TRIZ is one of the most famous tools for creative problem solving. However, it is said that TRIZ is complicated and difficult to understand and apply to solve problems. In order to resolve these difficulties, this paper presents S-ARIZ, a simplified ARIZ(the algorithm for inventive problem solving). S-ARIZ revised ARIZ-85C on two ways. First, cause and effect analysis is used to define core technical contradictions and control parameters for the physical contradictions. Second, we add 5 inventive principles which revised SIT(systematic inventive thinking) partially to IFR-1 definition (Step 3-2 of ARIZ-85C) to solve the intensified technical contradictions systematically and effectively. It is expect that S-ARIZ can contribute to the rapid spread of TRIZ.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate various perspectives on the approaching to school algebra. School algebra plays an important role in school mathematics, but many students have been in difficulties for the loaming of school algebra. This problem has been continued for the long time. This paper supposed that this problem may be caused by the approaching stage to the school algebra. In order to investigate this problem, we first described the definition of algebra in chapterII. And in chapterIII, we divided the perspectives of approaching to the school algebra into the two parts. The one is the intrinsic nature of algebra, i.e. generalization, abstraction, and structural aspects. The other is the extrinsic representation of algebra, i.e. problem solving, modelling, functions. Each perspectives are investigated through various research studies. We hope that this works on each perspectives help a teacher prepare school algebra.

  • The core issue of ethical problem solving in engineering is to understand what exactly happened and to define its nature. Problems often arise mostly in morally complex situations. Traditional philosophical theories usually focus on extreme conflicts of interest and suggest moral theory-centered problem solving methods. However, these methods are not only difficult to specifically apply to real situations, but also are likely to fail to deal with actual moral issues in engineering fields. This study aims to develop more desirable ethical problem solving methods, based on STS (Science and Technology Studies) and engineering ethics combined. First, we have examined the engineering ethics with implications of an STS perspective, then have analyzed traditional ethical problem solving methods in a critical point of view. This study will suggest a new ethical problem solving method named Matrix Guide, based upon those analyses. Specifically, this study classifies four stages of problem definition, analysis, solving, and feedback. Here, we focus on how to combine technological and non-technological factors in each stage, when we are facing morally complex situations in engineering sectors.

  • The recent development of the HD (High Definition) and UHD (Ultra High Definition) technology allowed the growth of 3D contents market. Yet the majority of the 3D contents in the market are strictly for 6.5 cm inter-ocular distance, causing various visual discomforts for the viewers who have different inter-ocular distance. Moreover, because the 3D contents are created for a fixed viewing distance, the change of the viewing distances when watching 3D contents can also cause visual conflicts. To solve this problem, we devised techniques that consider the environmental information of the viewer watching 3D contents. By analyzing the relationship between viewing distance, inter-ocular distance, and perceived depth, we created an adaptive content viewing system that reflects the viewer's environment to minimize any conflicts in watching 3D contents. From our experiments, we found that the performance of our adaptive content viewing system was reasonable.

  • An approach to providing computational support with an expert shell is discussed with the scope of an industrial wire harness design, especially at a manufacturing stage. Key issues include the development of an architecture that supports a frequent design change among engineers associated with different parts of the wiring design process and the development of hierarchical representations that capture the different characteristics (e.g., connectivity, configuration) of the harnesses. The abstraction of design information results in features, while the abstraction of drawing elements leads to the definition of objects. These abstractions are essential for efficient transactions among people and computer tools in a domain that involves numerous interacting constraints. In this paper the strategy for the problem decomposition, the definition of features, and the ways in which features are shared by various operations and design changes, are discussed. We conclude with a discussion of some of the issues raised by the project and the steps underway to address them.

  • Learning can be defined as its objects, main question for the objects, and its unique way to organize all the knowledge acquired as the results of the question. From the point of view like this, Traditional Korean Medicine(TKM) can be defined as learning for human body and its functions, health and diseases based on the theory of the Yin and Yang and of the five elements. Nowaday Many papers based on laboratory work publish for the name of scientization of TKM, but from the viewpoint of definition of learning, they have a problem that there is no basic theory. If TKM could be communicated with western natural science, it has to be solved. And oriental physiology has a same object and same questions with western physiology, so oriental physiology can be useful to make a bridge between TKM and western natural science.

  • The third party logistics(3PL) is given a definition as logistics activities providing a comprehensive logistics services, all or partly outsourced by the customer on long-term contract basis, ranging from making logistics strategies to implement information technology services. The growth of the Third Party Logistics (TPL) business has been caused many firms to penetrate into the field from different industries. In this study, it is presented to describe a definition and development process of the third party logistics and shown to present strategic issues comparing to third party logistics in foreign and domestic area. and apply to some issues of importance when managing the continued TPL business strategy in domestic area.

  • This research is a study on student's understanding fundamental concepts of mathematical curriculum, especially in geometry domain. The goal of researching is to analyze student's concepts about that domain and get the mathematical teaching methods. We developed various questions of descriptive assessment. Then we set up the term, procedure of research for the understanding student's knowledge of geometric figures. And we analyze the student's understanding extent through investigating questions of descriptive assessment. In this research, we concluded that most of students are having difficulty with defining the fundamental concepts of mathematics, especially in geometry. Almost all the students defined the fundamental conceptions of mathematics obscurely and sometimes even missed indispensable properties. And they can't distinguish between concept definition and concept image. Prior to this study, we couldn't identify this problem. Here are some suggestions. First, take time to reflect on your previous mathematics method. And then compile some well-selected questions of descriptive assessment that tell us more about student's understanding in geometric concepts.
