We propose the reusability decision model of the object-oriented components, which can decide the potentiality of reusability of the object-oriented components actively. Fisrt, we select attributes for the reusability decision of the object-oriented components. Then, we acquire information from the reused components based on the quality measures and criteria proposed by many researches. Lastly, we generate algorithm for the reusability decision of the object-oriented components from the acquired information employing rough set.

Building a knowledge base effectively has been an important research area in the expert systems field. A variety of approaches have been studied including rules, semantic networks, and frames to represent the knowledge base for expert systems. As the size and complexity of the knowledge base get larger and more complicated, the integration of knowledge based with database technology cecomes more important to process the large amount of data. However, relational database management systems show many limitations in handing the complicated human knowledge due to its simple two dimensional table structure. In this paper, we propose Object-Oriented Knowledge Store (OOKS), a knowledge base model on the basis of a frame sturcture using an object-oriented database. In the proposed model, managing rules for inferencing and facts about objects in one uniform structure, knowledge and data can be tightly coupled and the performance of reasoning can be improved. For building a knowledge base, a knowledge script file representing rules and facts is used and the script file is transferred into a frame structure in database systems. Specifically, designing a frame structure in the database model as it is, it can facilitate management and utilization of knowledge in expert systems. To test the appropriateness of the proposed knowledge base model, a prototype system has been developed using a commercial ODBMS called ObjectStore and C++ programming language.

Reengineering to object-oriented system is needed to maintain the system and satisfy requirements of structure change. Target systems which should be reengineered to object-oriented system are difficult to change because these systems have no design document or their design document is inconsistent of source code. Using design document to identifying objects for these systems is improper. There are several researches which identify objects through procedural source code analysis. In this paper, we propose automatic object identification method based on clustering of VTFG(Variable-Type-Function Graph) which represents relations among variables, types, and functions. VTFG includes relations among variables, types, and functions that may be basis of objects, and weights of these relations. By clustering related variables, types, and functions using their weights, our method overcomes limit of existing researches which identify too big objects or objects excluding many functions. The method proposed in this paper minimizes user's interaction through automatic object identification and make it easy to reenginner procedural system to object-oriented system.

Object-oriented paradigm has required the fundamental changes in the developers' practice and orientation. However. the relevant literature has not still provided the solid practical methodology but created some myths regarding Use Case modeling. In this study. we attempt to 'demythologize' some key aspects of Use Case Modeling by describing what we have observed in our research and practice. In order to identify the developers' perceptions. the survey methodology was utilized. By discussing the differences between what must be done and what has been done. this study provides rich insights into the better understanding of the Use Case modeling and the successful development of object-oriented systems.

Recently, many enterprises are installing AMSs(Automated Manufacturing Systems) for their competitive advantages. As the level of automation increases, proper design and validation of control logic is a imperative task for the successful operation of AMSs. However, current discrete event simulation methods mainly focus on the performance evaluation. As a result, they lack the modeling capabilities for the detail logic of automated manufacturing system controller. Proposed in this paper is a method of validation of the controller logic for automated material handling system using an object-oriented design and simulation. Using this method, FA engineers can validate the controller logic easily in earlier stage of system design, so they can reduce the time for correcting the logic errors and enhance the productivity of control program development Generated simulation model can also be used as a communication tool among FA engineers who have different experiences and disciplines.

In modern systems technology, increasingly more systems are anticipated to operate in real-time environment. These systems are usually complex to implement since it is not easy to satisfy the real-time requirement for both hardware and software components simultaneously. In this paper, we first review an object-oriented development process that was proposed earlier for software-intensive real-time system using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). We then study how to improve the problems that the UML approach might have. Applying the systems engineering(SE) process yields useful results which include : 1) an improved requirements management over the whole system life-cycle ; 2) a detailed scenario on how to carry out the SE process ; and 3) a conversion process from the text-based requirements to the UML-based graphic ones.

A multibody system dynamics analysis program is presented using one of the most useful programming methodologies, the object-oriented modeling, The object-oriented modeling defines a problem from the physical world as an abstract object. The object becomes encapsulated with the data and method, Analysis is performed using the object's interface, It is then possible for the user and the developer to modify and upgrade the program without having particular knowledge of the analysis program, The method presented in this paper has several advantages, Since the mechanical components of the multi-body system are converted into the class, the modification, exchange, distribution and reuse of classes are increased. It becomes easier to employ a new analysis method and interface with other S/W and H/W systems, Information can be communicated to each object through messaging. This makes the modeling of new classes easier using the inheritance, When developing a S/W for the computer simulation of a physical system, it is reasonable to use object-oriented modeling.

In the new database applications such as office information systems, CAD/CAM, and AI, it is required to support not only fixed Is-A and Part-Of relationships but also various user-defined dynamic relationships including complicate constraints. However, existing object-oriented systems have many weaknesses in managing those complex relationships. This paper presents the Object-Oriented Relationship data Model (OORM) which is designed to provide facilities for modeling complex relationships into object oriented databases using abstraction concept. In the model, various integrity and consistency constraints related to the relationships can be also represented. And this paper presents a query language, ORSQL(Object Relationship SQL). ORSQL is a nonprocedural query language having similiar syntax to the standard SQL and supporting OORM's operations.

In this paper, we present a knowledge-based object-oriented spatial database system called KOBOS. A knowledge-based approach is introduced to the object-oriented spatial database system for data modeling and approximate query answering. For handling the structure of spatial objects and the approximate spatial operators, we propose three levels of object-oriented data model: (1) a spatial shape model; (2) a spatial object model; (3) an internal description model. We use spatial type abstraction hierarchies(STAHs) to provide the range of the approximate spatial operators. We then propose SOQL, a spatial object-oriented query language. SOQL provides an integrated mechanism for the graphical display of spatial objects and the retrieval of spatial and aspatial objects. To support an efficient hybrid query evaluation, we use the top-down spatial query processing method.

In this paper, we investigate the properties of antitone Galois connection and formal concepts. Moreover, we show that order reverse generating maps induce formal, attribute oriented and object oriented concepts on a complete residuated lattice.
