The purpose of this study is to define the role of a T. Q. C. engineer in the plant engineering activities. A "plant engineering" moves to complete a new project through a series of stages such as: 1. Research & Development stage. 2. Economic evaluation & engineering design stage. 3. Erection & start up stage. 4. Final production & control stage. This suggests that the plant engineering project should be carried out with a wide variety of tasks, as well as a central control. For a successful completion of the project, a T. Q. C. engineer is required, in practice, either as a central activity creator or as a key advisor in each task.

The recent increase in use of the IEEE 802.15.4 standard for wireless connectivity in personal area networks makes of it an important technology for low-cost low-power wireless personal area networks. Studies showed that voice communications over IEEE 802.15.4 networks is feasible by Guaranteed Time Slot (GTS) allocation; but there are some constraints to accommodate voice transmission beyond two hops due to the excessive transmission delay. In this paper, we propose a GTS allocation scheme for bidirectional voice traffic in IEEE 802.15.4 multihop networks with the goal of achieving fairness and optimization of resource allocation. The proposed scheme uses a greedy algorithm to allocate GTSs to devices for successful completion of voice transmission with efficient use of bandwidth while considering closest devices with another factor for starvation avoidance. We analyze and validate the proposed scheme in terms of fairness and resource optimization through numeral analysis.

For the remarkable enhancement of high-speed rail passenger services, a system which provides various multimedia contents and Internet search functions was designed. The system gets inputs from a passenger and displays various multimedia contents on the touch sensitive LCD panel attached on a passenger seat. This kind of service is new in Korea and not easy to find in other countries, either. In this paper, we presented a design of a system which provides not only one-way broadcasting services but also searching capability of various information interactively. Informations to be provided are train schedule, transfer information, tour information, E-books, movies, music, ets. Successful completion of the system development in the following years is expected to strengthen international competitiveness of Korean railway industry.

In this study, we present the commissioning and validation results of a dedicated scanning nozzle. The dedicated scanning nozzle is installed in one of the two gantry treatment rooms at Samsung Proton Therapy Center. Following a successful completion of the acceptance test, the commissioning process including the beam data measurement for treatment planning system has been conducted. Extended measurements have been conducted as a validation of the clinical performance of the nozzle and various quality assurance protocols have been prepared.

The demand for drug-induced sedation for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans have substantially increased in response to increases in MRI utilization and growing interest in anxiety in children. Understanding the pharmacologic options for deep sedation and general anesthesia in an MRI environment is essential to achieve immobility for the successful completion of the procedure and ensure rapid and safe discharge of children undergoing ambulatory MRI. For painless diagnostic MRI, a single sedative/anesthetic agent without analgesia is safer than a combination of multiple sedatives. The traditional drugs, such as chloral hydrate, pentobarbital, midazolam, and ketamine, are still used due to the ease of administration despite low sedation success rate, prolonged recovery, and significant adverse events. Currently, dexmedetomidine, with respiratory drive preservation, and propofol, with high effectiveness and rapid recovery, are preferred for children undergoing ambulatory MRI. General anesthesia using propofol or sevoflurane can also provide predictable rapid time to readiness and scan times in infants or children with comorbidities. The selection of appropriate drugs as well as sufficient monitoring equipment are vital for effective and safe sedation and anesthesia for ambulatory pediatric MRI.

A comprehensive understanding of functions and performances enables a selection of appropriate alternatives to the existing design and can prevent defective design. A performance-based design quality management can ensure successful project completion. This study proposes a new model for design quality management in order to prevent defective design and to minimize design change. The new quality management model defines the requirement about function and performance based on technical characteristic, and assesses suitability for design alternatives. This study attempts to propose a quality matrix assessment method that can compare the alternative design and requirements defined with the new quality management model. This method can judge conformity and suitability of design quality in accordance with the requirements configured.

This paper deals with the introduction of capstone design project by team activities in Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Korea Maritime University. This course is referred to as Creative Engineering Design for spring semester of 4th-year undergraduates. The course focuses on creative thinking and cooperative mind to students by learning engineering design skills, realizing their idea through design project and recognizing practicality of their systems. The intent of the course is to provide a true "capstone" experience, where students can combine their skills to achieve the successful completion of a project. This paper describes class process and evaluation method, and cooperative works with mentees and industrial mentors connected through Hanium network for IT mentoring activities.

COMS (Communication Ocean and Meteorological Satellite), the Korea's first geostationary Earth observation satellite, started to operate 24 hours to observe Land/Ocean/Atmosphere with the MI (Meteorological Imager) and GOCI (Geostationary Ocean Color Imager). After the successful completion of the IOT (In-Orbit Test), the satellite is in normal operation from April of 2011. This paper describes an algorithm for scan mirror emissivity compensation of the COMS MI and its software implementation.

To assure a successful completion of an assigned task without interruption, the hand of mechnical manipulator often travels along a preplanned path. This paper presents a method of obtaining a time sechdule of velocities and acceleration along the path, under the constraints. Because of the involvement of a linear performance index and a largr number of nonlinear constraints, the "method of approximate programming (AMP)" is applied. To overcome the false solutions AMP is modified. To reduce the computing time, a "direct approximate programming algorithm (DAPA)" is developed.

A mega project such as an international airport construction generally consists of a number of sub-projects. Successful completion of this mega project requires project management information system(PMIS) because control and link of a number of component sub-projects is inevitable. Therefore, the role of PMIS should be more emphasized as the project is processed and managed by fast track concept where the design and construction work is performed concurrently. This study investigates and analyzes the present PMIS developed for the construction project of Inchon International airport. Based on this study, we can suggest the direction of PMIS for a mega project management and how to improve this kind of management information system.
