In this study, an improved method of setting the RAM goals for surveillance system using OMS/MP and field operations data of similar systems is suggested and a case study of surveillance system A is given. Newly suggested methods for setting the RAM goals consist of the procedures such as On/Off time analysis of configuration equipment based on OMS/MP, field operations data analysis of similar systems, adjustment of preventive maintenance time, the number of corrective maintenances, and TALDT in wartime, introducing new subsystem to reliability structure of surveillance system, and reflecting expert's opinion. A case study of surveillance system A shows that newly suggested method in this study for setting the RAM goals is reasonably acceptable and practically applicable to other similar systems.

In the case of large combined weapon systems, such as submarines, the application, and verification of methods of setting the reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) target values for conventional weapon systems are limited. Submarines are complex weapon systems with the characteristics of the diversity of operation mode summary and mission profiles (OMS/MP) as well as equipment complexity because they are composed of multiple weapon systems, such as sonar systems and armed systems. Therefore, this study analyzed the development cases of existing weapon systems, i.e., the RAM target value-setting cases, and derived the problems and limitations of the cases to present measures to improve the setting and verification of the ram target values of submarines. In addition, submarines operate around the world and have different operating and maintenance conditions. Therefore, a submarine's ram target values should be set and verified centering on the mission essential equipment and mission critical equipment, instead of all components that constitute weapon systems. This study examined a method to verify the required performance RAM target-value setting, considering the characteristics of submarines as well as the physical performance requirements for the systems and equipment of submarines that must be considered when implementing national defense acquisition projects for submarines.

본 논문에서는 결함의 영향을 받지 않고 동작할 수 있는 AVTMR(All Voting Triple Modular Redundancy) 시스템을 개발하였으며, MILSPEC-217F에 기반을 둔 고장율을 계산하여 AVTMR과 SS(Single System) 시스템을 비교 및 평가하였다. 설계된 시스템은 MC68000을 기반으로 한 3중화된 다수결 보터(Triplicated Majority Voter)를 이용하여 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서는 시스템의 신뢰도(Reliability), 가용도(Avaliability), 유지보수도(Maintainability)를 마코브 모델(Markov model)로 평가하였으며, 또한 시스템의 MTTF(Mean Time to Failure)를 계산하여 시스템의 수명을 구하였고, 설계된 AVTMR 시스템이 SS(Single System)보다 전체 시스템 평가에서 우수한 특성을 가진다는 것을 시뮬레이션을 통해 알 수 있었다. 또한, AVTMR 시스템은 결함을 허용(Fault tolerant)하는 시스템 특성을 가지기 때문에, 인간의 생명과 관련된 철도 시스템, 선박 시스템이나 항공기 시스템에 적용될 수 있다.

Package for artificial satellite is to produce mass production for high package with reliability certification as well as develop SDRAM (synchronous dynamic RAM) module which has such as miniaturization, mass storage, and high reliability in space environment. It requires sophisticated technology with chip stacking or package stacking in order to increase up to 4Gbits or more for mass storage with space technology. To make it better, we should secure suitable processes by doing design, manufacture, and debugging. Pin type PCB substrate was then applied to QFP-Pin type 3D memory package fabrication. These results show that the 3D memory package for artificial satellite scheme is a promising candidate for the realization of our own domestic technologies.

Recently, the R&D of weapon systems has been strengthened in terms of economic cost management throughout the entire life cycle from performance. This study proposes the method for setting the optimal maintenance concept based on RAM-C in weapon system acquisition stage by calculating the operation & maintenance cost as well as reliability, availability, and maintainability. First, we design a simulation model for analysis of weapon system logistic supportability. In addition, information such as weapon system Part Breakdown Structure, operation & maintenance system, cost, and etc for simulation analysis, is applied. Based on the obtained simulation results, the optimal plan is selected among alternatives designed with various maintenance concepts through normalization and weight setting. It is expected to be of technical help in the application of RAM-C in the weapon system acquisition stage.

The manufacturing process of the resistive variable memory device, which is the based of neuromorphic device, maintained the continuity of vacuum process and applied plasma module suitable for the production of the ReRAM(resistive random access memory) and process technology for the neuromorphic computing, which ensures high integrated and high reliability. The ReRAM device of the oxide thin-film applied to the plasma module was fabricated, and research to improve the properties of the device was conducted through various experiments through changes in materials and process methods. ReRAM device based on TiO₂/TiOx of oxide thin-film using plasma module was completed. Crystallinity measured by XRD rutile, HRS:LRS current value is 2.99 × 10³ ratio or higher, driving voltage was measured using a semiconductor parameter, and it was confirmed that it can be driven at low voltage of 0.3 V or less. It was possible to fabricate a neuromorphic ReRAM device using oxygen gas in a previously developed plasma module, and TiOx thin-films were deposited to confirm performance.

M&S techniques are utilized for various purposes on the national defense, and its importance is increasing than ever. For analyzing RAM (Reliability, Availability and Maintainability) of weapon system, using M&S techniques can be more effective and practical way than deterministic approach, because M&S approach can consider uncertain variables and various constraints in the ILS (Integrated Logistics support) field. For design of ILS M&S, we first set up a purpose of M&S, attributes of real system and other similar ILS M&S tool. Then, we convert real system into model which consists of mathematical formula and logical expression. In this thesis, we introduce modeling procedures of M&S that describes total life cycle of 'OO guided weapon system' and the contents proposed in this paper can provide references for developing other M&S tool.

Recently, a number of evaluation studies on availability of plant were carried out. This study was conducted to verify of the reliability of a simulation with some variable such as configuration of process, failure probability density function and the number of iteration times for the natural gas liquefaction plant. The error rate of the KICT-RAM solution was evaluated as 0.03~1.79% compared with the result of the MAROS(commercial solution). And the error-rate change was observed in the range of 0.03~1.75 on the condition of the iteration times as 30, 100, 250. As a result the plant availability evaluation approach of KICT-RAM solution was verified as reasonable. However, the careful approach was required to use the solution because the error-rate increased according to iteration times change.

A top priority in the design of underwater vehicle is to guarantee the dependability of the electric system because failure of the electrical power supply system is directly related to the life of the passengers. In this paper, we present four kinds of alternative designs to improve reliability of electrical system in underwater vehicle. To reduce the risk and to increase availability of the electrical system, we use the redundancy of the grid structure and power converter. For all design alternatives, we carry out Fault Tree Analysis. Based on the FTA result, we implement RAM simulation to compare the risk and availability for the proposed design alternatives.
