A workflow process (or business process) management system helps to define, execute, monitor and manage workflow models deployed on a workflow-supported enterprise, and the system is compartmentalized into a modeling subsystem and an enacting subsystem, in general. The modeling subsystem's functionality is to discover and analyze workflow models via a theoretical modeling methodology like ICN, to graphically define them via a graphical representation notation like BPMN, and to systematically deploy those graphically defined models onto the enacting subsystem by transforming into their textual models represented by a standardized workflow process definition language like XPDL. Before deploying those defined workflow models, it is very important to inspect its syntactical correctness as well as its structural properness to minimize the loss of effectiveness and the depreciation of efficiency in managing the corresponding workflow models. In this paper, we are particularly interested in verifying very large-scale and massively parallel workflow models, and so we need a sophisticated analyzer to automatically analyze those specialized and complex styles of workflow models. One of the sophisticated analyzers devised in this paper is able to analyze not only the structural complexity but also the data-sequence complexity, especially. The structural complexity is based upon combinational usages of those control-structure constructs such as subprocesses, exclusive-OR, parallel-AND and iterative-LOOP primitives with preserving matched pairing and proper nesting properties, whereas the data-sequence complexity is based upon combinational usages of those relevant data repositories such as data definition sequences and data use sequences. Through the devised and implemented analyzer in this paper, we are able eventually to achieve the systematic verifications of the syntactical correctness as well as the effective validation of the structural properness on those complicate and large-scale styles of workflow models. As an experimental study, we apply the implemented analyzer to an exemplary large-scale and massively parallel workflow process model, the Large Bank Transaction Workflow Process Model, and show the structural complexity analysis results via a series of operational screens captured from the implemented analyzer.

Biomimicry architecture has been highlighted in recent years for the innovative ideas from the nature have provided main developments in many areas. The related studies in Korean architecture is entering the first step and are needed close attentions for its vitalizations. This study starts with the acknowledgement of necessity to establish the architectural application process. First of all, it is named as a 'Passive Cycle' if a problem-solving or a project has been through the analysis of process complexity and biomimicry application process in other areas. Then, the basic frame is structured as a 'Process-Cooperation,' which integrates process complexation with process circulation. The cooperative relationship starts from the beginning of the design with not only professionalists related with architecture but also ones in various areas when it is issued a difficult problem or high environmental performance not found in common architectural design processes. To make the architectural application good progress, the characteristics of bio-mimetic architectural applications are categorized as three areas; the expected effect, the application level, and application method. As a result, the organic complexity should be prioritized to have bio-mimetic application effectively while accessing the principles. Therefore, the process for the architectural application of biomimicry is suggested as 'Organic Cycle-Cooperation.'

소프트웨어 관리 모델은 크게 소프트웨어 프로젝트 견적 모델과 소프트웨어 설계평가 모델, 소프트웨어 복잡성 모델, 소프트웨어 신뢰도 성장 모델, 소프트웨어 프로세스 개선 모델 등으로 나누어진다. 그 중에서도 개발된 소프트웨어를 정량적으로 분석하여 평가하는 모델이 소프트웨어 복잡도 모델이다. 즉, 소프트웨어를 객관적으로 관리하는데 있어서 정량적인 판단 기준이 필요하다. 그렇기 때문에 소프트웨어 복잡성 모델(software complexity model)은 소프트웨어의 복잡성에 대한 정량적인 평가에 응용할 목적으로 도입되었으며, 소프트웨어 복잡성 측정시 이 결과를 소프트웨어 관리(software management)의 기준에 이용하는데 있어서 품질이나 생산성에 대한 영향을 제공할 때 정량적이고 명확히 할 필요가 있기 때문이다. 다시 말해서 복잡한 프로그램에는 에러가 많이 포함될 가능성이 높고 또 개발비용(source cost)도 높다는 것을 경험적으로 알 수 있다. 이러한 관계가 성립되지 않는 경우에는 소프트웨어의 효과적인 관리가 곤란하다. 본 논문은 이런 관점에서 대표적인 소프트웨어 복잡성 모델에 대한 적용법에 대해 기술하고 개발중인 교환시스템의 소프트웨어에 대해 volume metrics와 process complexity metrics 방법, 제어구조 및 인터페이스 구조 방법에 대한 분석 결과와 시스템 개발을 수행하는 과정에서 발생되고 있는 문제점들에 대해 다각도로 분석을 하여 이를 유사한 시스템 연구개발 및 프로젝트 관리에 활용하고자 한다.

The human performance issues and increased automation issues in advanced Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) are critical to numerous stakeholders in the nuclear industry, due to the undesirable implications targeting the Man Machine Interface Systems (MMIS) complexity of (Generation IV) SMRs. It is imperative that the design of future SMRs must address these problems. Nowadays, Multi Agent Systems (MAS) are used in the industrial sector to solve multiple complex problems; therefore incorporating this technology in the proposed innovative SMR (I-SMR) design will contribute greatly in the decision making process during plant operations, also reduce the number MCR operating crew and human errors. However, it is speculated that an increased level of complexity will be introduced. Prior to achieving the objectives of this research, the tools used to analyze the system for complexity reduction, are the McCabe's Cyclomatic complexity metric and the Henry-Kafura Information Flow metric. In this research, the systems engineering approach is used to guide the engineering process of complexity reduction concept of the system in its entirety.

This paper seeks to suggest user satisfaction model of digital signage to see how new in-store technology can effectively lead to customers' shopping satisfaction in fashion retails. Authors in particular focus on technological complexity, which is expected to serve a subtle role in using digital signage. This study employed a scenario-based online survey. Interactive digital signage with virtual try-on and video-captures functions was used as stimuli. Data were collected from 320 respondents and 307 useable responses were analyzed to examine a proposed model. Research model compares dual paths of motivators: the extrinsic motivation route that leads from usefulness to shopping outcome satisfaction and intrinsic motivation route that leads from enjoyment to shopping process satisfaction. Technological complexity of digital signage indirectly and negatively influences shopping outcome and process satisfaction, mediated by usefulness and enjoyment, but directly and positively affects shopping process satisfaction. In omni-channel environments, the findings have implications for fashion retail managers in using digital signage to maximize customer satisfaction and to counterbalance the advantages and disadvantages of technological complexity.

Mass customization is a marketing strategy to meet consumer needs for variation and uniqueness of products. Although there are quite a few studies quantitatively investigated the options provided by mass customization process, scholarly work related to mass customization has provided mixed results on consumer perception of complexity and their responses. The purpose of the study is to derive the factors that influence consumer complexity perception in online apparel mass customization process and consumers' needs to enhance mass customization services. Data were collected by conducting focus group interviews of which 29 participations in 4 groups. The results of the study suggested that consumers perceived complexity through mass customization process due to too many choice options. However, the effect of number of options on respondents' complexity perception was different depending on consumer characteristics such as consumer expertise and fashion involvement, and the characteristics of consumer preference development. Shopping context such as shopping purpose is another moderating factor. This study also suggests that a variety of marketing strategies which can enhance mass customization services affect the relationship between the number of options and consumers' complexity perception. The findings of the study provide academic and managerial implications.

During the development of a weapon system, the concept of maintainability is used for quantitatively predicting and analyzing the maintenance time. However, owing to the complexity of a weapon system, the standard maintenance time predicted during the system's development differs significantly from the measured time during the operation of the equipment after the system's development. According to the analysis presented in this paper, the maintenance time can be predicted by considering the system's complexity on the basis of the military specifications, and the procedure can be Part B of Procedure II and Method B of Procedure V. The maintenance work elements affected by the system complexity were identified by the analytic hierarchy process technique, and the system-complexity-reflecting weights of the maintenance work elements were calculated by the Delphi method, which involves expert surveys. Based on MIL-HDBK-470A and MIL-HDBK-472, it is going to present a Korean-style maintainability prediction method that reflects system complexity of weapons systems.

분산 비디오 압축 기술은 부호화기의 복잡한 과정을 복호화기로 이동시킴으로써 저복잡도 부호화기를 가능하게 한다. 하지만 WZ 복호화기는 움직임 예측/보상 과정뿐만 아니라 채널 복호 과정까지 수행하기 때문에 복호화 과정의 높은 복잡도가 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. LDPC 부호의 복호화는 상당히 반복적인 과정으로 수행되기 때문에 그 수행 횟수만큼 복잡도가 늘어나는데, 실제로 이러한 반복적인 복호 과정은 전체 WZ 복호화 복잡도의 60% 이상을 차지하고 있기 때문에 복잡도 절감의 주요 대상이다. 따라서 이러한 복잡도 절감을 위해 과거에 HDA(Hard Decision Aided) 방법을 적용하는 방법이 제안되었다. HDA 방법은 해당 패리티에 대한 복호 과정의 복잡도를 상당량 줄여주지만, 채널 복호가 성공하기에 부족한 패리티량에 대해서도 여전히 복호 과정을 수행하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 이러한 소모적인 과정을 줄임으로써 추가적인 복잡도 절감 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 비트 플레인 간의 상관도와 시간적 상관도에 기반하여 최소 연산으로 패리티 요구량을 예측하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안 방법과 HDA 방법을 함께 적용할 경우 채널 복호 과정에서는 평균 72% 정도의 고속 복호가 가능하며, 저하되는 율 왜곡 성능은 -0.0275 dB (BDPSNR) 정도로상당히 낮다.
