The hippocampus and prefrontal cortex are regarded as the highest-order association cortices. The hippocampus has been proposed to store "cognitive maps" of external environments, and the prefrontal cortex is known to be involved in the planning of behavior, among other functions. Considering the prominent functional roles played by these structures, it is not surprising to find direct monosynaptic projections from the hippocampus to the prefrontal cortex. Rhythmic stimulation of this projection patterned after the hippocampal EEG theta rhythm induced stable long-term potentiation of field potentials in the prefrontal cortex. Comparison of behavioral correlates of hippocampal and prefrontal cortical neurons during an a-arm radial maze, working memory task shows a striking contrast. Hippocampal neurons exhibit clear place-specific firing patterns, whereas prefrontal cortical neurons do not show spatial selectivity, but are correlated to different stages of the behavioral task. These data lead to the hypothesis that the role of hippocampal projection to the prefrontal cortex is not to impose spatial representations upon prefrontal activity, but to provide a mechanism for learning the spatial context in which particular behaviors are appropriate.propriate.

To design high quality products at low cost is one of very important task for engineers Design optimization for performances can be one solution in this task. This is robust design which has been proved effectively in many field of engineering design. In this paper, the concept of robust design is introduced and combined to fuzzy optimization and nonsingleton fuzzy logic system. The optimum parameter set points were obtained by the fuzzy optimization method and nonsingleton fuzzy logic system. These methods are applied to a filter circuit, a part of the audio circuit of mobile radio transceiver. The results are compared each other.

Group Decision Support System(GDSS) has been a rapidly emerging field of the 1990's. Whereas conventional Decision Support System(DSS) helps individual decision makers, GDSS are designed to help groups of senior management and professional groups reach consensus. However, empirical researches which required to establish the optimum GDSS specification are scarce. Along with this purpose, this paper was focused to investigate the effect of group decision factors on the efficiency of the group decision. In this paper, task types of group decision which were discussed as major variable at many papers were settled as environmental factor. The result has verified the importance of the role-related factors on the efficiency of the group decision. This fact highlights the need of more researches on the role-related factors in the group decision in the GDSS development.

The safety accident is one of the formidable issues in construction field, and in order to prevent safety accident, contractors perform safety education, safety control document, meeting with labors, and safety instruction in construction phase. However, safety accident is occurred continuously, it is needed to analyze which factors are affected to safety accident. day of the week, daily construction cost, and daily work task were selected as those factors. The result in this research represented that those factors were not considered as an critical one in safety accident. Because of approach limitation to safety accident, only two case studies were collected. If more safety accident cases are gathered in future study, it will clarify the cause of safety accident and will prevent safety accident.

In this paper, we propose a remote controller for robot manipulator using local area network(LAN) and internet. To do this, we develope a server-client system as used in the network field. The client system is in any computer in remote place for the user to log-in the server and manage the remote factory. the server system is a computer which controls the manipulator and waits for a access from client. The server system consists of several control algorithms which is needed to drive the manipulator and networking system to transfer images that shows states of the work place, and to receive a Tmp data to run the manipulator. The client system consists of 3D(dimension) graphic user interface for teaching and off-line task like simulation, external hardware interface which makes it easier for the user to teach. Using this server-client system, the user who is on remote place can edit the work schedule of manipulator, then run the machine after it is transferred and monitor the results of the task.

Using end-user attitude as intervening variable, this paper proposes a causal model of how environmental factors of EUC influence end-user computing (EUC) success, measured by the degree of IS use. This study identifies unique aspects of the EUC environment and generates key dimensions of end-user attitude appropriate for this context : perceived information quality, perceived design quality, and perceived usefulness. The research model includes six environmental factors - top management support, end-user education, task variability, task analyzability, end-user's computing ability, and end-user involvement. A field study was undertaken to test the hypothesized relationships among the research variables. The results generally support the assumption that end-user attitude intervene the impact of environmental factors on IS use. The implications of the findings are discussed.

Analyses of eye tracking and think-aloud protocol data were performed to examine novice-expert differences in perceptual and cognitive aspects of air traffic controllers' situation awareness. In Experiment 1, three groups of field air traffic controllers (experts, intermediates, novices) were asked to perceive situations that were manipulated by situation complexity. In Experiment 2, protocol analysis for previous situation awareness tasks was performed to extract different task models and strategy models as a function of expertise. Then delayed-recall task and interviews about air control plans for the recalled situations were also executed. Results showed that expert controllers concentrate only on several critical features and have their own strategies to reduce mental workloads.

In order to apply job performance records to the master craftsman examination, which is an examination to screen the top-rated technician and task manager, the domestic industry has introduced job performance records to the written test of the master craftsman examination. Surveys on master craftsman's field capabilities and applicability are being conducted, and various qualification methods are being tested so as to give satisfaction to consumers in industrial fields. However, these methods have many problems in assessing task managers' qualifications. In order to solve these problems, this research intends to verify the appropriateness of introducing master craftsman's portfolios assessment and the suitability of application methods by conducting interviews and surveys. One big conglomerate and one mid-sized company that has more than 500 employees and covers from 주조(酒造:brewing) 또는 to providing various services to consumers were selected for this research.

Memphis originated from Radicalism in Italy came into being in 1981 as a experimental design group. Basically Memphis represented changed concept of design and the task of the designer by innovative design with unusual shapes and colors. What Memphis intended to demon-strate is the diversity of expression of design creativity and possibilities of new stimuli. As a result, Memphis has shown ways of redefining the field of design. In the 1990, the diversity of design movenment reflects the plualism of fragmented, specialized society. Design is faced with new task. It must do more than merely de-fine an object and its function. So from this point of view, this study interpretates ideas of Memphis design theory and attitude.
