  • Domestic distribution warehouse has been developed as a strategic strategic point for inventory management and shipping of goods for companies. Warehouse is classified as distribution center, transport center, complex center depending on the role. Currently, at the same time it is considering the price factor such as rent price or land price and and logistical capabilities when considering the location of domestic warehouses. The price evaluation factors has specific methods for the evaluation but logistical elements is not currently clear. In this study, we have studied location selection of distribution center considering the logistical elements through expert surveys.

  • A data warehouse is not an operational database, only a database for decision support. It is defied as "a subject-oriented, integrated, time-variant and non-volatile collection of data". It is an indispensable element of successful information processing technology. This study is designed to suggest a better way to use database for efficient Port Authority's management. It is expected to play a significant role in introducing a data warehouse dedicated to port industry. Data warehouses are to serve as an opportunity to be fully exploited as a strategic technology for ports. Seven subject areas supporting ideas of researchers constitute this study.

  • The steel bars account for a high percentage of material costs for the current construction projects. At the present time, most of the construction projects for the factories of thin-film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) complete the transactions of steel bars when the suppliers ship the steel bars to the temporary storage/processing sites. This paper applies the buy-in concept in the Theory of Constraint (TOC) on the supply chain of steel bars. In this study, suppliers are required to establish warehouses at the construction sites and complete the transactions when the formed and processed steel bars are shipped into the factory sites. The aim is to find a win-win solution to meet with the expectations from constructors as they hope that there is no need to build up inventories but supply is ready at any time. Also, this paper compares and analyzes the traditional supply/inventory model of steel bars and the Demand-Pull (D-P) model under the TOC framework. It is proved that Vendor Management Inventory (VMI) in the D-P model is able to more effectively manage steel bars as a material.

  • Feeding preference of cigarette beetle, Lasioderma sewicorne F., on cured tobacco leaves was investigated to obtain basic information on ecological management of the insect pest in tobacco storage warehouses. About 3, 000-4, 000 adults of the insect were released in a warehouse in which groud tobacco leaves were placed on the bottom and at 3m above the floor level, and numbers of insects attracted were examined. There was no significant difference on feeding preference between the two tobacco varieties, flue-cured(NC82) and air-cured(Br3l) tobacco leaves. However, significant differences were noted in feeding preference between thick and thin leaves and among different quality grades within a tobacco variety. Feeding preferences of cigarette beetle between flue- and air- cured tobacco varieties showed significant differences on the lower position, though there were no differences on the 3m upper position. On the 3m upper position, feeding preferences were different between thick and thin leaves of tobacco varieties, and variety X thickness and variety X thickness equality grades showed statistically significant differences. Significantly higher feeding preference by cigarette beetle adults was observed for the food placed on the 3m upper than on the lower position. There were negative correlations between quality grades of cured tobacco leaves and feeding preference on the lower position, and the regression equation was Y(feeding preference)=4.050-0.683 X (degree).

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationship between work-related characteristics and job stressors and the factors influencing musculoskeletal symptoms of the warehouse employees. Methods: The research was a cross-sectional, descriptive study. Data were collected from 319 warehouse employees who agreed to participate in the study by using self-report questionnaires. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, $x^2-test$, and logistic regression analysis (SPSS 18.0). Results: The overall prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms was 37.6%. The logistic regression analysis revealed a posture that renders fatigue or pain, repetitive work, and a higher total score of job stressors as the risk factors for musculoskeletal symptoms in many body parts. Conclusion: Employers should plan to educate employees who work in warehouses about the correct working posture to prevent musculoskeletal diseases, stop repetitive work, and manage job stressors.

  • An important use of data warehousing is to provide temporal views over the history of source data. It is significant that nearly all data warehouses are dependent on relational database technology, yet relational databases provide little or no real support for temporal data. Therefore, in is difficult to obtain accurate information for time-varying data. In this paper, we are going to design a temporal data warehouse to support time-varying data efficiently. For this purpose, we present a method to support temporal query by combining a temporal query process layer with the relational database which is used as a source database in an existing data warehouse. We introduce the Temporal Aggregate Tree Strategy (TATS), and suggest its algorithm for the way to aggregate the time-varying data that is changed by the time when the temporal view is created. In addition, The TATS and the materialized view creation method of the existing data warehouse have been evaluated. As a result, the TATS reduces the size of the fact table and it shows a good performance for the comparison factor in case of processing the query for time-varying data.

  • Database integration is a common and growing challenge with the proliferation of database systems, data warehouses, data marts, and other OLAP systems in organizations. Although there are many methods of sharing data between databases, true interoperability of database integration system that improves in the database federation architecture by allowing domain administrators to simply and efficiently capture database semantics. The semantic information is combined using a tool for producing a global view. Building the global view is the bottleneck in integration because there are few tools that support its construction, and these tools often require sophisticated knowledge and experience to operate properly. The technique and tool presented is simple and powerful enough to be used by all database administrators, yet expressive enough to support the majority of integration queries.

  • EPC (Electronic Product Code) tags and RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) technology are said to have potential to change the ways individuals, organizations and societies operate on the everyday basis. In the near future, it is expected that every major retailer will use RFID and EPC systems to track the movement of products from suppliers to warehouses, store backrooms and eventually to points of sale. Recent efforts in EPC tags and RFID technology attempt to achieve an appropriate kind of interaction between technical and business areas. In this paper, we explore the fundamental characteristics of RFID and EPC applications and then review the different research studies of RFID technology and EPC system that have been proposed new theories and concepts that have emerged and utilized in different business fields of manufacturing and logistics. It provides an overview of the study achievements within the domain and critically evaluates the various approaches through the use of a case study and the construction of its comparison framework. The different research studies indicated that RFID and EPC systems will become more pervasive in the future and the changes that occur over the next few years will make for a further fascinating research area.

  • Paris hasn't experienced such excitement since the huge changes brought about by Baron Haussmann in the 19th century. Paris Rive Gauche project, started in 1991, is the largest urban project in city ever since, it represents about 1% of Paris territory. It takes place on a workshops, factories and warehouses area that prospered along the Seine river and the railways in the 19th century. Originally planned as a business quarter, Paris Rive Gauche, developed by SEMAPA for the City of Paris, fosters urban diversity through housing, offices, public facilities, shops, creating a stimulating neighbourhood where 18,000 residents, 30,000 students as well as 60,000 employees will soon croth paths. This project's main principles are urban and social diversity, deployment of public facilites, the development of new university campus inside the city, promotion of industrial patrimony and connecting the old 13th distict to the river and the opposite side. Half of the project is going to be built on a concrete slab that covers the railway tracks which is one of the major performances of this long-term project. This concrete slab represents the new level of the City, about 6 to 8 meters above the railway tracks. We distinguish three families of buildings on the cover : Classic buildings; Bridges buildings and Connection buildings, these last guarantee the linkage between old and new level of the City.

  • 공간 데이터 웨어하우스 구축기는 소스 데이터의 변경 사항을 일괄처리의 형태로 공간 데이터 웨어하우스에 적재한다. 또한, 공간 데이터 웨어하우스 서버는 사용자의 질의에 빠른 응답을 하기위해 적재된 데이터로 색인을 구축한다. 색인을 구성하는 기존 기법으로는 벌크 삽입 기법 및 색인 전송 기법이 있다. 벌크 삽입 기법은 색인을 구성하기 위한 클러스터링 비용이 필요하며 검색 성능도 떨어진다. 또한, 색인 전송 기법은 주기적인 소스 데이터의 변경을 지원하지 않는다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 공간 데이터 웨어하우스에서 부분 색인 전송을 이용한 효율적인 색인 재구성 기법을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 구축기에서 색인의 구조에 맞게 클러스터링된 클러스터들을 부분 색인으로 구성하여 페이지 단위로 전송한다. 공간 데이터 웨어하우스 서버에서는 전송된 부분 색인의 물리적 사상 문제를 해결하기 위해 물리적으로 연속된 공간을 예약하고 예약된 공간에 부분 색인을 기록한다. 기록된 부분 색인은 공간 데이터 웨어하우스 서버에 있던 기존 색인에 삽입된다. 부분 색인이 기존 색인에 직접 삽입됨으로써 색인 재구성을 위한 검색, 분할, 재조정 비용은 최소가 된다.
