A measurement device for gas flow rate using hot-wire module is developed for the utilization in low-accuracy industrial applications. The module has three wires of measuring and heating, and a bridge circuit is installed to detect electric current through the wire in the module. An amplification of the signal and conversion to digital output are conducted for the online measurement with a personal computer. In addition, temperature distribution in the module is numerically analyzed to examine the measured outcome from the module experiment. The flow rate of air and carbon dioxide gas is separately measured for the performance examination of the device. The experimental relation of measurement and flow agrees with the prediction from the numerical analysis. The outcome of the performance test indicates that the accuracy and reproducibility of the module is satisfactory for the purpose of industrial applications.

This paper proposes a R&D project performance measurement model for private firms combining balanced scorecard (BSC) and data envelopment analysis (DEA). The efficiency of R&D projects is measured in terms of each of the three perspectives of BSC by using DEA : the internal process perspective (DEA-P), the customer perspective (DEA-C), and the financial perspective (DEA-F). The performance indicators of the three perspectives of BSC are considered as outputs of the corresponding DEA models. To provide strategic implications for R&D planning, we also propose the R&D project performance matrices composed of two different types of efficiency dimensions. The proposed model is expected to be fruitfully utilized for R&D performance measurement of private firms.

A severe problem in VE study of a project is to reduce value due to loss of performance, caused by focusing on cost reduction. Also a lack of understanding performance concept, no trial VE workshop as well as cost saving-based policy have not satisfied customer needs. A efficient VE job plan for especially large scale railroad construction project is proposed in this study. This study developed a more objective performance evaluation system for value engineering study of mega projects and suggested a systematic process of performance quantitative analysis for value improvement. The proposed performance measurement method would be very useful for better communication and consensus between decision makers and VE team.

The purpose of this study is to develop the web-based system for work performance analysis(WPAS). The need of work performance analysis system has already been suggested in many previous researches on the computerization of the performance measurement in the construction site by using the indicators such as time, cost and quality. However, they had focused on measuring or analyzing the result when the project would be over. The WPAS suggests three indicators - work reliability, work effectiveness and work efficiency - to manage the performance of the construction site. It can help the manager more easily recognize the status of on-going work in the construction site by measuring and analyzing the work reliability rate, the work effectiveness and work efficiency every day. This research includes the procedures for WPAS measurement process, database structure of WPAS which was analyzed by the IDEF0 and the data flow diagram. Finally, this research introduces the result of WAPS's case studies and validation in the Korean construction site.

Many companies still struggle with the issue of research and development(R&D) performance measurement, in particular, the nonfinancial performance measurement of R&D with coming of knowledge-based society, Of course, we would not deny the fact that financial measures play the central role in assessing the overall performance of R&D, The aim of this paper is to provide the new model to evaluate the quantitative value of technology (nonfinancial benefits). This new model is based on the technology stock(technology level) acquired in R&D process, That is, we take it for granted that the acquired technology below a certain level(<70% compare to the advanced country) can not be utilized in developing the new products or in proving the manufacturing processes, The evaluation model we create can explains the quantitative relation between the technology stock and the market value considering R&D expenditure to acquire the technology above certain level(>70%) and cost to prevent the technology obsolescence. The value of non-destructive testing technology, which is one of the electric Power technology, is measured quantitatively using our new model as a case study, We also discussed briefly the possibility of capitalization of the measured technology value.

On-line process monitoring schemes are designed to give early warnings of process faults. In the artificial intelligence and machine learning fields, reliable approaches have been utilized, such as kernel-based nonlinear techniques. This work presents a kernel-based empirical monitoring scheme with a small sample problem. The measurement data of normal operations are easy to collect, whereas special events or faults data are difficult to collect. In such situations, noise filtering techniques can be helpful in enhancing the process monitoring performance. This can be achieved by the preprocessing of raw process data and eliminating unwanted variations of data. In this work, the performance of several monitoring schemes was demonstrated using three-dimensional batch process data. The results showed that the monitoring performance was improved significantly in terms of the detection success rate.

An effective approach to detect and diagnose multiple failures in a dynamic system is proposed for the case where the measurement noise is correlated sequentially in time. It is based on the modified interacting multiple-model (MIMM) estimation algorithm in which a generalized decorrelation process is developed by employing the autoregressive (AR) model for the correlated measurement noise. Numerical example for the nuclear steam generator is provided to illustrate the enhanced performance of the proposed algorithm.

A good business performance measurement system is an effective tool io sustained growth in profits. Although interest in creating performance measurement models is widespread, a well-designed system is rare. To be successful in today's competitive environment, a performance measurement system should incorporate strategic success factors and contain financial and non-financial measuring index to carry out strategic management. In the 1990s, Kaplan & Norton introduced a concept called the Balanced Scorecard. The Balanced Scorecard supplements traditional financial measures with criteria that measured performance from three additional perspectives - those perspectives of customers, internal business processes, and learning and growth. This paper presents five measuring index criteria for each perspective. To calculate the relative priority for These measuring index, we investigate weights investigated by interviews with management consultant. Then, AHP method is employed for calculating priority weight. Our evaluation model may be referred to as the Balanced Analytic Hierarchical Performance Model(BAHPM) in the sense that the analytic hierarchical scheme, along with the AHP, is applied. The BAHPM is the first kind of analytical model to cover a wide variety of measures. In comparison with previous evaluation models, our model shows strengths in structural flexibility, ease of incorporating feedback, group evaluation capacity, participation promotion, sensitivity analysis, and computational simplicity. A prototype based on the BAHPM can be applied to various industry sectors.

It is known that human factors account for 80 percent of all railway accidents. To reduce human errors must be the most efficient shortcut to railway safety. For public transportation employees like railway, the more delicate safety management should be executed in individual level. However, there are rarely efforts to improve safety performance of workers who are the subject operating the railway system. This paper develops a hierarchy model to evaluate the human safety performance in railway industry. To evaluate the model, AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) methodology is adopted. The hierarchy model is composed of four levels which are objective, two criteria, specific factors of criteria, and rating scales. In addition, since employees for evaluation are over 10, the pairwise comparisons for rating scales are carried out by the absolute measurement. We explore the applicability of AHP to the performance evaluation of railway safety workers by an example and also investigate the changes of alternatives that are railway employees according to the changes of human characteristic which is one of criteria.
