  • This study analyzed the academic achievements on above-level testing of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and English in newly entering students of science specialized high schools. It can be expected that newly students of science high specialized schools have reached ceiling level in the middle school mathematics and science academic scores. Above-level testing(or off-level testing) is a test tool used to evaluate student's ability which are above-grade level. In this study, above-level testing tools were used to develop the same type examination paper of the 2013 Korean College Scholastic Ability Test(CSAT) in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and English. The conclusions of this study were as follow: First, the academic achievement level of science specialized high school freshmen were higher the average level of general high school senior because that over 50% of them are within the 5 grade of CSAT in mathematics, physics, and chemistry. In English, 19.3% science specialized high school freshmen have reached within the 5 grade of CSAT. Second, as a result of examining characteristics of academic achievement with respect to units of subjects, in mathematics, it was showed that the academic achievement of 'continuity and limit of a function' unit was higher, 'statistics' unit was lower. In physics, the academic achievement of 'Electricity and Magnetism' unit was higher, 'Waves and particles' unit was lower. In chemistry, the academic achievement of 'compounds in life' unit was higher, 'Air' unit was lower. In English, the academic achievement of 'practical sentence' of reading area was higher, 'Sentence' of writing area was lower. In conclusion, above-level testing provided a good strategy for identifying and determining appropriate programming interventions for gifted students who are two or more grade levels above their age-mates in achievements, aptitude, or ability.

  • This study was designed to verify reliability and feasibility by analyzing elderly drivers' ability test tools for older drivers aged 65 or older, which were improved in 2018 and are currently being conducted by the Korea Highway Traffic Authority. Only those aged 65 or older who voluntarily applied to the elderly driving ability evaluation system implemented by the Seoul branch of the Korea Highway Traffic Authority. The research was conducted for about 50 days until Aug. 31, 2018, starting with the registration and inspection of the first study subjects. The analysis performed a correlation analysis with existing tools and cognitive testing tools (MMSE_K) to determine their feasibility and reliability as an improved tool in 2018. As a result, the first, the speed distance, time-space memory, and dispersionism of each sub-component of the old version showed statistically significant static correlation with the sub-factor of the current version. Persistence, on the other hand, was not statistically significant to the current version. The limitations of this study were as follows. Most of the people in the study were highly educated and residents in the metropolitan area. Therefore, it is likely that the results of MSE_K, which checks cognitive and judgment skills, have been upgraded. Also, cognitive tools that are measured by computers are likely to have real measurement errors for generations who are not familiar with computers. Therefore, it is expected that improvement and development of tools for improving the limit points at the site and assessing actual operation capability will be required.

  • In recent years, the structural shock response to UNDEX (UNDerwater EXplosion) has been studied as much, or more, through numerical simulations than through testing for several reasons. Very high costs and sensitive environmental concerns have kept destructive underwater explosion testing to a minimum. Increase of simulation capabilities and sophisticated simulation tools has made numerical simulations more efficient analysis methods as well as more reliable testing aids. In this study, the main issue is the fluid-structure interaction. Here, appropriate relations between the acoustic pressure on the fluid surface and displacements on the structure surface are formed internally. The analysis was carried out using ABAQUS/Explicit and the results have been visualized in ABAQUS CAE. The shock loading history, acoustic pressure, stress of stand-off point, the velocity and strain energy time histories were presented.

  • The service size of an IoT environment is determined by the various types of sensors. A gateway for relaying sensor information from various sensors is a representative middleware system, and an infographics showing the information with a graphical presentation of data and information is a client system for representing real-time information efficiently, it is necessary a similar test bed with IoT environment to develop a real-time infographics displaying a large amount of information effectively. The testing tools used in developing the existing network systems are mostly made to be suitable for functional testing and performance testing of the driven unit. In this paper, we proposed a mean which is web-based simulation framework to create a variety of information required for real-time infographics development, and evaluate the function of the system proposed by the test function of the comparison with the previous network test tool.

  • 객체 지향 소프트웨어의 확장과 더불어 소프트웨어의 재사용성의 중요도가 부각되면서 소프트웨어를 콤포넌트 단위로 구현하는 추세이다. 따라서 콤포넌트 기반의 소프트웨어 개발에서의 통합 테스트가 중요한 이슈로 떠오르고 있다. 그러나 콤포넌트들의 통합 테스트에 대한 연구는 미흡한 상태이다. 본 논문에서는 UML을 기반으로 체계적인 통합 테스트 모형을 제안하고. 나아가 본 논문에서는 "멀티미디어 정보처리 시스템"의 사례를 본 논문의 콤포넌트 통합 테스트 모형에 적용한 결과를 분석하여 기술한다. 콤포넌트 통합 테스트 모형은 UML(Unified Modeling Language)의 순서도(sequence diagram)와 협력도(collaboration diagram)를 이용하여 전체 시스템에서 UML의 사건흐름을 구성하는 콤포넌트들 사이의 인터페이스 영역에 존재하는 오류들을 추출한다. 그리고 UML을 기반으로 통합 테스트를 수행함으로써, 테스트 준비 작업을 줄이고, 기존의 UML 지원 도구들과 연계하여 테스트 자동화 도구의 구현을 앞당길 수 있다. 또한 시스템의 순차적 흐름 뿐 아니라, 동시에 수행되는 흐름에 대한 정보까지 모두 수용하여 테스트함으로써, 콤포넌트 기반의 분산 환경의 특성에 적합하다. Abstract As the object-oriented approach to software development becomes more mature, software development from pre-existing, independently developed components becomes an important aim of software engineering. Therefore, integration testing becomes an important aspect of component-based software development. However, there has been little work done in the area of the component-based integration testing. In this paper, we propose the "component integration test model" which is based on UML. Furthermore, we describe a case study on "Multimedia Information Processing System" conducted to analyse the result from which our model is applied. Our model extracts the faults, which exist in interfaces of components, using sequence diagram and collaboration diagram of UML(Unified Modeling Language). As our model is based on UML, the preparation effort for testing is reduced and its test-tools can be implemented more easily through linking existing UML tool. And our model accepts the information of concurrent flow represented by collaboration diagram as well as sequential flow, so it is more suitable to component-based distributed environment.based distributed environment.

  • Beryllium (Be), cobalt (Co), thallium (Tl) and vanadium (V) are candidates of 21 priority soil pollutants in Korea. The distribution of their concentration in soils from three contamination sources including industrial, roadside and mining areas was investigated. Concentrations of the metals were evaluated quantitatively using pollution indices and the fractionation of metals was conducted using modified SM&T (Standards Measurements and Testing programme) sequential extraction. Concentrations of the metals for all samples from industrial and roadside soils were within the range of natural background levels, while some of Be in soils from abandoned mines exceeded that the range. Enrichment Factor (EF) and Nemerow Integrated Pollution Index (NIPI) for Be, Co, Tl and V showed that there are effects or possibilities of anthropogenic activities. Pollution Load Index (PLI) analyses indicated all investigated sites needed further monitoring. The results of sequential extractions indicated mobile fractions (F1+F2) of Be, Tl and V were below 30% except some of Co in soil, which implies their low mobility to neighboring environment media. Variable tools like sequential extraction, comparison with background/actual concentration and pollution indices, as well as aqua regia extraction should be considered when evaluating Be, Co, Tl, V in soil.

  • PURPOSES: This research is to evaluate the mechanical performance of different types of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) pavement cells prepared for MN/Road field testing section through an extensive experimental analysis of air voids and simple statistical evaluation tools (i.e. hypothesis test). METHODS: An extensive experimental work was performed to measure air voids in 82 asphalt mixture cores (238 samples in total) obtained from nine different types of road cell located in MN/Road testing field. In order to numerically and quantitatively address the differences in air voids among the different test Cells built in MN/Road, a simple statistical test method (i.e. t-test) with 5% significance was used. RESULTS: Similar trends in air voids content were found among the mixtures including conventional HMA, Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) combined with taconite aggregate this provides support to the use of RAP and WMA technology in the constructions of asphalt pavement. However, in case of acid modified HMA mixtures, significant differences in air void content were observed between on the wheel path and between wheel path location, which implies negative performances in rutting and thermal cracking resistances. Conclusions : It can be concluded that use of RAP and WMA technology in the construction of conventional asphalt pavement and the use of PPA (Poly Phosphoric Acid) in combinations with SBS (Styrene Butadiene Styrene) in asphalt binder production provide satisfactory performance and, therefore, are highly recommended.
