  • The new generation of nuclear power plants (NPPs) will likely make use of state-of-the-art technologies in many areas of the plant. The analysis, design, and selection of advanced human-system interfaces (HSIs) constitute an important part of power plant engineering. Designers need to consider the new capabilities afforded by these technologies in the context of current regulations and new operational concepts, which is why they need a more rigorous method by which to plan the introduction of advanced HSIs in NPP work areas. Much of current human factors research stops at the user interface and fails to provide a definitive process for integration of end user devices with instrumentation and control and operational concepts. The current lack of a clear definition of HSI technology, including the process for integration, makes characterization and implementation of new and advanced HSIs difficult. This paper describes how new design concepts in the nuclear industry can be analyzed and how HSI technologies associated with new industrial processes might be considered. It also describes a basis for an understanding of human as well as technology characteristics that could be incorporated into a prioritization scheme for technology selection and deployment plans.

  • The purpose of this study is the examination of the possibility as grasping the circumstance which is the time required from programming to design process in schools which are established newly and investigating the consciousness of the user's participation, because we need a user participation process in the programming to design process to improve the level of design. The above-mentioned purpose is the reason that this study composes the second grade. This study shows the entirely necessary time to work each step as collecting the data of programming-design process to 33 schools which are established for 4 years between 2002 and 2005 by Busan metropolitan city office of education, and the reason why they need a time each step. As the result of this study, the school established by the purpose of land development business takes more time than the school of learning environment improvement and of reconstruction & transfer case. Because of the change of land for school, we have to take a cautious approach to select the land for school in the future when developing the land. The time required from programming to design process in reconstruction & transfer case is the shortest even though it is different a little according to the kind of schools.

  • Achieving the beneficiary goal of recent discovery in human genome project still needs a way to retrieve and analyze the exponentially expanding bio-related information. Research on bio-related fields naturally applies knowledge discovered to the current problem and make inferences to extract new information where shared concepts and data containing information need to be defined and used in a coherent way. In such a professional domain, while the need to help users reduce their work and to improve search results has been emerged. methods for systematic retrieval and adequate exchange of relevant information are still in their infancy. The design of our system aims at improving the quality of information retrieval in a professional domain by utilizing both corpus-based and concept-based ontology. Meta-rules of helping users to make an adequate query are formed into an ontology in the domain. The integration of those knowledge permits the system to retrieve relevant information in a more semantic and systematic fashion. This work mainly describes the query models with details of GUI and a secondary query generation of the system.

  • When information professionals deal with other disciplines in the course of digital humanities projects, they often assume that they are dealing with 'needful users' who have an 'information gap' to fill. This paper argues that the traditional view that information/knowledge is transferred from an information specialist donor to a domain specialist receiver is no longer appropriate in the digital humanities context, where the gap-and-search (or gap-and-filler) approach to information has given way to more direct, explorative engagement with information. The paper asks whether information science and the practising profession are ready for this paradigm shift and examines information science conservatism in two common collaboration scenarios, library support and digital development. It is shown that information science theory still assumes a traditional donor role in both scenarios. How information scientists deal with conservatism in practice is discussed in the example of the Prior project, in which the information science team exerted an ambiguous, hybrid approach with both conservative and non-conservative elements. Finally, two rather hypothetical answers are offered to the question of how information professionals should approach scholarly collaboration in the digital humanities context, where users have ceased to be supplicants. From a purely pragmatic perspective, information scientists need to shift their focus from information needs to research practices and the implications of these practices for digital information systems. More fundamentally, the emergence of digital humanities challenges information professionals to transform information systems designed for searching into digital objects that can be explored more freely by the digital humanities community.

  • Recently, the construction industry is getting more complex and sophisticated having the characteristics of a mega project. Mega project pursues a value that can't be gained with an approach of seeing a project as just a simple sum of different parts but a mutual combination. However, the current manuals can't fulfill the needs for supporting, therefore, need a tool to support the decision making and an IETM is expected to take this role. Despite the a lot of expected advantages of IETM, it is still difficult to apply because of the frequent changes of information of detailed process and its complexity. In this research, as part of developing an IETM, we aim to propose a system frame which is based on the analysis of processes of a project. It is basic part of IETM to give information to users and IETM consists of normal mode that offers general information about the urban regeneration project and user-specified mode that gives classified and reorganized information to user. For supporting these functions, IETM should be stored in a form that can classify the information about urban regeneration project and be tagged with meaningful tags. Moreover IETM developers have to consider the interoperability of IETM because it ultimately should be coordinated with overall Project Management System like an iPMIS. We used XML for solution of interoperability because it stores information as just text-file that doesn't need a special form.

  • In this paper, We studied efficient design of wireless transmission system for unified data transmission in a subway and railway. It is increased that need of broadband multimedia service to make useful environment for user and to support the operation of railway system. High bandwidth is better if we need more services. But, high bandwidth requires more cost at tunnel of subway. More bandwidth make receive sensitivity to bad. So it need more wireless Station. We deduced best bandwidth of subway wireless transmission system reflecting the cost of installation and efficiency of system. Consequently, we decide efficient service model of broadband wireless system at a subway. Subway broadband wireless transmission system is tested in this year, and it is to be extended to province subway. Cost of subway broadband wireless transmission system is saved, because the system can be efficiently designed. Therefore, the effectiveness is expected to be very big.

  • 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅이 가져올 변화는 종합적인 환경의 변화로서 이러한 변화는 사람들의 삶의 모습을 어떻게 바꿔 놓을 것이며 이때 사람들이 필요로 하는 것은 무엇인지를 이해하여 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에 적절한 서비스를 개발하는 일이 이루어져야 한다. 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경에서의 디자인은 사람들의 생활(life)을 디자인하는 개념으로, 미래의 생활에 대한 예측을 효과적으로 할 수 있는 시나리오를 개발하는 것은, 디자인 컨셉(concept)을 효과적으로 개발할 수 있는 기반을 만드는 것이라 할 수 있다. 하지만 기술의 발전 경향과 그를 통해 미래를 예측하고 적절한 서비스 시나리오를 개발하는 과정 사이에는 명확한 방법론의 부족으로 간극이 존재한다. 대부분의 현재 개발된 시나리오들은 서비스가 제공될 환경의 복잡, 다차원적인 측면들을 정확하게 파악한 서비스를 제시하고 있지 못하다. 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 환경 하에서의 서비스는 사용자의 컨텍스트(context: 정황, 배경, 환경)를 파악하고 그에 맞춰 필요한 정보를 가장 적절한 방법으로 제공하는 형태여야 한다. 이를 위해서는 사용자가 언제, 어디서, 어떠한 형태의 서비스를 필요로 할 것인지 서비스 개발의 관점에서 사용자의 생활과 환경을 명확히 파악하는 일이 필요하다. 그리고 이를 바탕으로 미래의 UC(Ubiquitous Computing) 서비스를 제안할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 본 연구는 이를 위해 미래의 가정을 중심으로 서비스 개발의 관점에서 가정에서의 사용자 컨텍스트를 분석하고 이를 기반으로 서비스를 제안하기 위한 UC 서비스 시나리오를 개발하는 방법론에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구를 통한 방법론의 적용으로 가정에서의 사용자 컨텍스트를 체계적으로 살피고 서비스 개발에 보다 효과적으로 활용될 수 있게 분석할 수 있었으며, 다양한 사용자 컨텍스트에 미래의 생활상을 충분히 반영한 UC서비스 시나리오의 개발이 원활히 진행될 수 있었다.
