Currently, many companies are trying to be more competitive by implementing the most appropriate software package, called ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning). ERP can support the company's business process. A repository, which can story and retrieve enterprise-wide information, is a key component of such software package. This paper implements an enterprise repository for the ERP. A wellknown repository standard, IRDS (Information Resource Dictionary System), is employed for the repository architecture. A meta schema that can help develop database, business applications, models, and workflow is proposed. To illustrate the practical usefulness, a real-life ERP prototype is built within the framework of the proposed repository.

Data dictionary is a collection of meta-data, which describes data produced and consumed while performing business processes. Data dictionary is an essential element for business process standardization and automation, and has a fundamental role in ERP application management and customization. Also, data dictionary facilitates B2B processes by enabling painless integration of business processes between various enterprises. We implemented data dictionary support in SEA＋, a component- based scalable ERP system developed in ETRI, and found out that it's a plausible feature of business information system. We discovered that data dictionary promotes semantic, not syntactic, data management, which can make it possible to leverage viability of the tool in the coming age of more meta-data oriented computing world. We envision that business data dictionary is a firm foundation of adapting business knowledge, applications and processes into the semantic web based enterprise infra-structure.

Data dictionary is a collection of metadata about data defined, produced and consumed while performing business processes. Data dictionary is an essential element for business process standardization and automation. Data dictionary also has a fundamental role in ERP application management and customization. Finally, data dictionary helps B2B by gracefully integrating intra-enterprise business processes and inter-enterprise business processes. This paper gives some clues about the importance of data dictionary in ERP and B2B, and introduces data dictionary support of SEA+, a component-based scalable ERP package system.

이 논문은 레거시 시스템에 대한 도메인 분석을 통한 소프트웨어 컴포넌트 식별을 제안하고자 한다. 이 방법은 공통/비공통 프로세스 컴포넌트를 추출하기 위한 워크플로우 기반의 도메인 모델링으로, 점진적, 반복적으로 각각의 사용자(개발자, 설계자, 시험자 등등)에게 적당한 크기의 프로세스 컴포넌트를 추출하고 마지막 단계에서 UML 기법으로 컴포넌트 내의 객체를 추출하고자 한다. 그래서 기존의 워크플로우 메커니즘의 확장 보완을 제시한다. 이 방법 적용 예로써 학생 학위 허가 시스템(Student Degree Matriculation System)을 적용 사례로 이용한다. 그리고 이 확장된 워크플로우 메커니즘은 IT 분야나 비즈니스 모델링은 물론 병렬 시스템, 텔레 통신 시스템, 실시간 시스템까지도 모델링 할 수 있으리라 본다.

RUP(Rational Unified Process)의 Unified Process Model 에는 Use Case Model, Analysis Model, Design Model, Deployrnent Model, Implementation model, Test Model의 6가지 모델이 있다. 이 모델들은 다음단계의 모델에 대한 일관성 및 의존성을 가진다. 한 모델에서 발생되는 요소들은 전, 후 단계에서 다른 모델들과 Trace Dependencies 를 갖는다. 이러한 의존적인 관계들은 각각의 요소들 사이의 진행, 기록 관계를 나타낸다. 그러나 대부분의 시스템은 이러한 관계 및 의존성 없이 설계되어져 전체적인 일관성을 이루지 못 하였다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 관계를 유지 하면서 사용자의 요구사항에 일관성 있는 Use Case 모델을 설계하고자 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 대학 종합정보시스템 구축의 일부분인 구매관리 시스템을 분석하여 컴포넌트 시스템 모델을 제시한다.

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a new trend for the design of application architecture to enhance the degree of share and reuse with the concept of service. It comes from the current situation where the business environments are changing rapidly and therefore competitions are getting bitter. To cope with such business challenges, business (and/or applications) architecture needs considerably flexibility and reusability, and that's why SOA is accepted as one of the most effective framework for the business applications in these days. In this paper we propose an analysis and design methodology for the applications of SOA. To implement the proposed methodology, the service ontology needs to be defined first, and the tasks such as service profiling, workflow design and service orchestration need to be followed. To validate the expected effects on flexibility and reusability, the proposed methodology was compared with CBD (Component Based Development).

This paper describes an information model, devised to manage roadway design information and to improve the collaboration among the multidisciplinary design teams. An analysis concerning the workflow, the rules and the functions of current roadway design was conducted. A process model based on the result of the analysis was developed by utilizing IDEF0 methodology. The process model reflects the interdependencies among multidisciplinary design disciplines and is capable of managing communication processes. This paper also discusses the design information hierarchy and the component representation schemes for systematic design information management. It is anticipated that the proposed information model would be able to improve the overall process of design of roadway construction projects by managing design information and helping the participants communicate and share information of the project effectively.

One of the important applications in Enterprise Resource Planning(ERP) systems is the Manufacturing Resource Planning(MRPII) system using Bill of Material(BOM). The manufacturing resource planning determines the quantity and timing of the production or purchase of subassemblies and raw materials needed to support the Master Production Scheduling(MPS). The bill of material is the recipe, a list of the materials needed to make a product. This paper intends to suggest a component-based materials management system using Unified Modeling Language(UML), as an application system for automobile part industry. Applying component based materials management systems designed with UML methodology, we analyzed the workflow and the document on materials management process from production planning to inventory management, and implemented a prototype of efficient materials management system, as a surrogate of existing material requirement planning(MRPI) system. To produce many other assemblies for a automobile part firm, component parts are assembled into subassemblies that are joined to assemble the finished product. Through the system suggested in this study, the level of inventory has cut down and the cost of inventory management has decreased. Also, the development method using UML makes the analysis and design phase to shorten in implementation period of MRPII system. The implementation of materials management system using CBD shows the ease of use in software reuse and the interoperability with corporate Internal information system. The result of applying object-oriented CBD technique is to minimize the risk of life cycle and facilitate the reuse of software as mentioned to limitation of information engineering methodology.

Cloud service users request dedicated virtual computing resource from the cloud service provider to process jobs in independent environment from other users. To optimize this process with automated method, in this paper we proposed a framework for workflow scheduling in the cloud environment, in which the core component is the middleware called broker mediating the interaction between users and cloud service providers. To process jobs in on-demand and virtualized resources from cloud service providers, many papers propose scheduling algorithms that allocate jobs to virtual machines which are dedicated to one machine one job. With this method, the isolation of being processed jobs is guaranteed, but we can't use each resource to its fullest computing capacity with high efficiency in resource utilization. This paper therefore proposed a cost-efficient job scheduling algorithm which maximizes the utilization of managed resources with increasing the degree of multiprogramming to reduce the number of needed virtual machines; consequently we can save the cost for processing requests. We also consider the performance degradation in proposed scheme with thrashing and context switching. By evaluating the experimental results, we have shown that the proposed scheme has better cost-performance feature compared to an existing scheme.
