Risk assessment during pre-construction phase is important due to the uncertainty of the risks that may exist in projects. Risk checklist is a method to systematically classify and organize the risks that have been experienced in the past, and to identify the risk factors that may be present in the future projects. In addition, risk value assessment based on checklists plays a key role in risk management, and various risk assessment researches have been conducted to carry out this systematically. However, previous approaches have limitations in common, this is because risk values are evaluated individually in risk checklists, which ignore interdependencies among risk factors and neglect the emergence of co-occurrence of risks. Hence, when multiple risk factors cooccur, they cannot be far off from the conventional method of summing the total risk value to establish the risk response strategy. Most of risk factors are interdependent and may have multiple effects if occurred than expected. In particular, specific cause can be overlapped if multiple risks co-occur, and this may result in overestimation of the risk response for the future project. Thus, the objective of this research is to propose a model to help decision makers to quantify the risk value reflecting the interdependency during the identification phase using existing risk checklist that is currently being practiced in actual construction projects. The proposed model will provide the guideline to support the prediction and identification of the interdependency of risks in practice. In addition, the better understanding and prediction of the exceeding risk response by co-occurring risks during the risk identification phase for decision makers.

Nowaday, The tendency of complexity and extension of construction fields increase the need for efficient works managements like a construction management. Consequently, by the introduction of Decision-Making Theories, researches for improving construction field's efficiencies are actively performed. Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process method is invented, so that describes a decision maker's ambiguous linguistic judgment with fuzzy numbers. but most of researches on Fuzzy-AHP use symmetric triangular fuzzy function for estimating each evaluation item with the consequence that exact judgments are impossible. those limits are caused by the point that employed fuzzy ranking methods can not support dissymmetric fuzzy numbers. In this research, we aims to overcome this problem with R.P.R(Relative Preference Ratio) method and suggest improved Fuzzy-AHP method which can use dissymmetric fuzzy triangular numbers.

H.264/AVC is the international video coding standard which has significant improvements of coding efficiency. ITU-T(International Telecommunication Union-Telecommunication standardization sector) and MPEG(Moving Picture Experts Group) adopts various complex coding tool such as variable block size motion, multiple reference frames, quarter-pel motion estimation/compensation (ME/MC) and rate-distortion(RD) optimization, etc. H.264 reference model employs complex mode decision technique based on RD optimization which requires high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose an efficient coding mode decision based on the cost distribution of RD in the macroblock coding mode sequence. Simulation results show that the proposed method reduces encoding time by 34% on average and save the number of computing RD cost by 82%.

As product quality and yield are essential factors in semiconductor manufacturing, monitoring the main manufacturing steps is a critical task. For the purpose, FDC(Fault detection and classification) is used for diagnosing fault states in the processes by monitoring data stream collected by equipment sensors. This paper proposes an FDC model based on decision tree which provides if-then classification rules for causal analysis of the processing results. Unlike previous decision tree approaches, we reflect the structural aspect of the data stream to FDC. For this, we segment the data stream into multiple subregions, define structural features for each subregion, and select the features which have high relevance to results of the process and low redundancy to other features. As the result, we can construct simple, but highly accurate FDC model. Experiments using the data stream collected from etching process show that the proposed method is able to classify normal/abnormal states with high accuracy.

River restoration plan and selection method are needed to reflect the diversity of river. Meanwhile, the ultimate purpose of river restoration is natural recovery of the river. Recently. hydrophilic enhancement is a tendency to include. In this study, naturalness of a river was used to establish alternative for the natural river recovery. Also, naturalness of a river calculated by using the evaluation of river naturalness that was developed using multi-criteria decision making to fit the environmental conditions in Korea. After selection the evaluation items for assessing the naturalness of the river based on the characteristics of the river, multiple alternatives were constructed and the naturalness of river for each of those alternatives were estimated. Comparing the estimated values has made the measurement of the natural recovery effect for each alternative efficient.

In this study we described Binary-Decision Method Programmable Controller that is faster than conventional Programmable Controller (P.C) using the Boolean method. An algorithm for the optimal BD program was systematically developed by using the incomplete multiple output function and the residual characteristic function. The potential applications of BD programmable controller for the problems of industrial control were illustrated, which include on-off sequential control function and also the tasks involving continuous data processing and PID control. An example was presented that has shown how BD programmable controller and ICU (Industrial Control Unit) controller can be applied to the sequential logics.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is known as a very useful decision-making model developed for obtaining the relative weights of alternatives through pairwise comparison in the context of hierarchical structure. In this paper, we propose a method to reflect the reliability of evaluators in the process of pairwise comparison. This method is applied to the evaluation of aerospace technology alternatives. We have conducted a questionnaire survey for S company that is one of the representative aerospace companies in Korea. A questionnaire was designed for obtaining both the priority with considering the reliability of evaluators' importance weights (the modified AHP priority) and the priority with assuming equally reliable evaluators' importance weights (the AHP priority) in order to compare the priority derived by each of two methods. The result shows that there exists the difference hard to neglect between the final priorities gained by two methods.

This paper proposes a pursuing system utilizing the learning method where multiple cooperating agents emulate social behaviors of animals and insects and realize their group behaviors. Each agent contains sensors to perceive other agents in several directions and decides its behavior based on the information obtained by the sensors. In this paper, a neural network is used fir behavior decision controller. The input of the neural network is decided by the existence of other agents and the distance to the other agents. The output determines the directions in which the agent moves. The connection weight values of this neural network are encoded as genes, and the fitness individuals are determined using a genetic algorithm. Here, the fitness values imply how much group behaviors fit adequately to the goal and can express group behaviors. The validity of the system is verified through simulation.

In this paper, it is identified that the optimal level of each performance measures (service and inventory level) is not sensitive to an uncertain environment under JIT Kanban system designed by Moeeni. Moreover, it is proposed that the optimal design method considering multiple performance characteristics is the optimal level decision method according to the relative importance differences of each performance when there exist multiple performance characteristics. The result from the simulation analysis shows that the number of Kanban for stage 3 (final process) and stage 2 is increased at the service level. It is found that the expected loss is minimal when the cycle time decreases and the container size increases. However, the stage 1 is not affected by the number and cycle time of Kanban. It is thus important to consider carefully the cycle time and the container size of the Kanban to satisfy the demand in right time. In case of inventory level, the working inventory level decreases when the container size is decreased and the working inventory level also decreases slightly when the cycle time of the Kankban is increased in stage 1 and 2.

Simulation is commonly used to find the best values of decision variables for problems which defy analytical solutions. "Simulation Optimization" technique is used to optimize the expressed in analytical of mathematical models. In this research, we will study Reverse-Simulation optimization method which is quite different from current simulation optimization methods in literature. We will focus on the on-line determination of steady-state method which is very important issue in Reverse-Simulation optimization, and the construction of Reverse-Simulation algorithm with expert systems. Especially, in the case of multiple objectives because of the dependency of simulation model, all objectives do not satisfied simulataneously. In this paper, therefore, we process simulation optimization using objectives with priority to optimize multiple objectives under single run.ingle run.
