  • Success in the excavation of foundations is commonly known as being very important in asserting stability. Furthermore, when the subjected formation is rocky and the use of explores is required, the demands of successful blasting are multiplied. The quick and correct estimation of excavation's characteristics may help the design of building structures, increasing their safety. The present paper proposes a new classification system which connects blastability and rock mass quality. This new system primarily concerns poor and friable rock mass, heavily broken with mixture of angular and rounded rock pieces. However, it should concern medium and good quality rock mass. The Blastability Quality System (BQS) can be an easy and widely - used tool as it is a quick calculator for blastability index (BI) and rock mass quality. Taking into account the research calculations and the parameters of BQS, what has been at question in this paper is the effect of BI magnitude on a geological structure.

  • The orthogonality is an important property in the experimental designs. When we use nearly orthogonal arrays, we need evaluate the degree of the orthogonality of given experimental designs. Graphical methods for evaluating the degree of the orthogonality of nearly orthogonal arrays are suggested.

  • This paper is very exploratory and addresses the issue 'Is a general quality model of software possible?'. If possible, how specific can/should it be?' ISO 25000 Series SQuaRE is generally regarded as a general quality model which can be applied to most kinds of software. Usability is one of the 8 characteristics of SQuaRE's Product Quality Model. It is the main issue associated with SQuaRE's Quality in Use Model too. it is the most important concept associated software quality since using is the only ultimate goal of software products. Playability, however, is generally regarded as a special type of usability, which can be applied to game software. This common idea contradicts with the idea that SQuaRE is valid for most kinds, at least many kinds, of software. The empirical evidences of this paper show that SQuaRE is too specific to be a general quality model of software.

  • There are many quality control(QC) tools useful for solving quality problems. In this paper, QC 7 tools, new QC 7 tools, and other quality tools are first compared with respect to their frequency of use. We suggest an integrated problem-solving procedure to systematically deal with various quality problems. For each step a streamlined flow chart is presented to help the practitioners to adopt relevant tools depending on certain situations they face. The procedure will help quality practitioners solve field quality problems.

  • Purpose: This study was to investigate the factors influencing quality of life and difference of quality of life in a postmenopausal group compared to premenopausal women. Method: The subjects consisted of 213 women from 40 to 64 years old. The data were collected from June 1, 2003 to June 31, 2004 using structured questionnaires which included questions relating to demographic and obstetric background and 4 scales(climacteric symptoms scale, marital satisfaction scale, sex-role attitude scale, quality of life scale). Result: Comparing pre- and postmenopausal women, significant statistical differences were demonstrated in climacteric symptoms and sex-role attitude. However, quality of life was not different between pre- and postmenopausal women. In premenopausal women, marital satisfaction($32.7\%$) and educational level($8.0\%$) were significant predictors to explain quality of life. Marital satisfaction($12.9\%$) was significant predictor to explain quality of life in postmenopausal women. Conclusion: No difference of quality in life between pre- and postmenopausal women provides information for changing traditional approaches of menopause according to physiological changes as illness. In addition the study showed that it is necessary to use marital satisfaction information when developing nursing interventions to promote the quality of life.

  • Flow rate, watertable and selected water quality of 2 small rural streams and 6 observation well located in Kangwon-do, Korea, were monitored land use of the watersheds was investigated to describe the trend of stream water quality for 2 years and groundwater quality for 1 year. Water qualities were analyzed with respect to BOD, SS, T-N, Nitrate, T-P and E-coli. Stream water quality and gorundwater quality directly concerned with the amount of rainfall and paddy fields. but water quality of watersheds is existed with other factor. Therefore, We have to continued monitoring and developing the best management practice.

  • This study was fulfilled in the purpose of proposing construction strategies of fashion information industry through the analysis of information user's satisfaction/dissatisfaction on information quality. The research was performed through a depth interview. Data were collected from 18 fashion information users(designers and merchandisers) who were working at fashion apparel industry during October to November 2007. Results from the study showed that there were three dimensions and 18 components of satisfaction/dissatisfaction on fashion information quality: Information quality(understandability, value-added, level of detail, relevance, diversity, objectivity, completeness, accuracy, quantitativeness), Service quality(responsiveness, accessibility, cost efficiency, empathy, reliability), System quality(currency, ease of use, format, timeliness). And the information users were perceiving that there were some changes in notion of preferring information, searching for information and usage of information.
