The success of a software development project can be determined by the use of QCD. And as a software's size and complexity increase, the importance of early quality assurance rises. Therefore, more effort should be given to prevention, as opposed to correction. In order to provide a framework for the prevention of defects, defect detection activities such as peer review and testing, along with analysis of previous defects, is required. This entails a systematization and use of quality data from previous development efforts. FMEA, which is utilized for system safety assurance, can be applied as a means of software defect prevention. SW-FMEA (Software Failure Mode Effect Analysis) attempts to prevent defects by predicting likely defects. Presently, it has been applied to requirement analysis and design. SW-FMEA utilizes measured data from development activities, and can be used for defect prevention on both the development and management sides, for example, in planning, analysis, design, peer reviews, testing, risk management, and so forth. This research discusses about related methodology and proposes defect prevention model based on SW-FMEA. Proposed model is extended SW-FMEA that focuses on system analysis and design. The model not only supports verification and validation effectively, but is useful for reducing defect detection.

Usually, a new SSD (Solide State Drive) product is developed based on the software platform of the previous product. Therefore, when using the same test case was used to evaluate the previous generation evaluation of new products are a number of advantages may be, but a priority or weight is the inefficiency exists in the use of the evaluation resources due to not considered. A new method is proposed to prevent the waste of testing resources. Through the analysis of the evaluation data for the previous products, the combinations of testing cases with the highest probability for defect detections are identified. When the software is to be reused, most part of the base software platform is rarely modified and only some modules are added or modified. So, the whole software system may have similar types of defects with the previous products. By utilizing the evaluation data for the previous proucts, we can detect defects at an early stage.

Under the Manufacturing Liability Act, consumers want to be protected from manufacturers by mitigating burden of proof as an important target to be protected. However, due to the complexity of the product, it is very difficult for consumers to prove defects from the manufacturing defect. This situation has led to a major revision of the Manufacturing Liability Act, which mitigates the burden of proof of consumers by applying fruitless liability. The Manufacturing Liability Act is comparable to the U.S., which has strong consumer rights and is protected by the Manufacturing Liability Act. The burden of proof can be regarded as the most necessary content for consumers within the manufacturing product liability law when responding to manufacturing defects. The U.S. intends to provide implications for achieving consumer protection in Korea's Manufacturing Liability Act by imitating the U.S. based on the burden of proof. Case comparison regarding burden of proof can be conducted based on various criteria, including criteria for each product and key features for determining the importance of the manufacturing product liability law. The Act on the Responsibility of Korean Manufacturing Products for the Protection of Consumers was developed based on the assessment criteria, and a remedy was proposed to protect consumers who suffered from manufacturing defects.

South Korea is advancing the unmanned aircraft private commercial business. Unmanned aerial vehciles industry has been developing for several years also abroad. However, unmanned aerial vehciles industry, can be an accident occurs. Accident of unmanned aerial vehciles to occur material damage and casualties. Particularly if an accident because of a defect in the unmanned aerial vehciles has occurred, it is necessary to analyze the liability for this. The defect accidents unmanned aerial vehciles has been the different manufacturing and design product is intended, whether it is important how to prove to this. This is because, unmanned aerial vehciles are designed in any intent of the original, it is impossible to victims know. So imposing a responsibility to prove the design by the manufacturer intended consumer is not fair. Moreover, the consumer, it is necessary to prove only that the product is one that normally dangerous lacked safety can be expected. This is a detailed issue of judgment of defects of unmanned aerial vehciles, the manufacturer to bear the accountability. In the case where the defect on the display of the unmanned aircraft is a problem, and if it reasonable indication, it is not appropriate to be required to prove that it was possible to prevent damage to the victim.

A low molecular weight component named bone morphogenetic protein(BMP) chemically isolated from the organic matrix of bone, induce postfetal connective tissue cells surrounding small blood vessels to differentiate into cartilage and bone. The end product of BMP is a spherical ossicle of lamella bone filled with red bone marrow for the functional loading. This is a important point that the graft material is embedded the defect site during the implant surgery. Because present knowledge of the relationship between BMP and bone regeneration arises mainly from studies of induced bone formation in heterotopic sites, it would be helpful to determine whether BMP plays any part in the process of bone healing. The BMPs have been shown to play crucial roles in normal skeletal development as well as bone healing and are able to activate transcription of genes involved in cellular migration, proliferation, and differentiation. The delivery of BMP on matrices has been efficacious in the treatment of defect bone in implant surgery. The purpose of the histologic study was to evaluate the effect of DLB(demineralized lyophilized bone) coated with purified human BMP(hBMP-I) in immediate implant surgery with bony defect to obtain the functional structure of implant asap. The ability of a graft of hBMP-I to accelerate bony defect repair provides a rationale for its use in immediate implant surgery that have large bone defect in edentulous area.

Detecting and correcting defects on LCD glasses early in the manufacturing process becomes important for panel makers to reduce the manufacturing costs and to improve productivity. Many attempts have been made and were successfully applied to detect and identify simple defects such as scratches, dents, and foreign objects on glasses. However, it is still difficult to robustly detect low-contrast defect region, called Mura or blemish area on glasses. Typically, these defect areas are roughly defined as relatively large, several millimeters of diameter, and relatively dark and/or bright region of low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) against background of low-frequency signal. The aim of this article is to present a robust algorithm to segment these blemish defects. Early 90's, a highly robust estimator, known as the Model-Fitting (MF) estimator was developed by X. Zhuang et. al. and have been successfully used in many computer vision application. Compared to the conventional Least-Square (LS) estimator the MF estimator can successfully estimate model parameters from a dataset of contaminated Gaussian mixture. Such a noise model is defined as a regular white Gaussian noise model with probability $1-\varepsilon$ plus an outlier process with probability $varepsilon$. In the sense of robust estimation, the blemish defect in images can be considered as being a group of outliers in the process of estimating image background model parameters. The algorithm developed in this paper uses a modified MF estimator to robustly estimate the background model and as a by-product to segment the blemish defects, the outliers.

There are various system defects from weapons manufacturing due to the numerous production processes and various production environments. The first kind of defect is patent defects, which can be detected by visual inspection, functional testing, and existing quality control procedures during the manufacturing process. The second kind is latent defects, which cannot be detected though existing quality management approaches because of the complexity of the system and manufacturing process. To minimize the initial defect problems, environmental stress screening (ESS) is needed to detect the defects, remove them, and improve the product conditions based on the environmental stress conditions of temperature and vibration. We implemented a tool for quantitative ESS effectiveness analysis and profile design automation based on MIL-HDBK-344 and verified it using six scenarios with different temperature stress, vibration stress, and test designs.

The present study is concerned with the characteristics of the high speed precision bar cropping. This process is a practical application of High Energy Rate Forming in which the impact energy source is given by internal combustion engine. To enhance the added value of product, the recent forging fields trend toward the near net shape processes through the cold and closed die forging. For the purpose of these processes the precedent process is to obtain the precision billet which has little weight deviation and defect. The accuracy of initial billet by bar cropping depends upon the process parameters and die design technology. Therefore, in order to investigate the effect of process parameters upon product quality, the cropping experiments are carried out according to the various parameters such as billet clearence, billet length, billet material, cropping speed and so on. From these results some criteria of the optimal die design for the product of good quality are suggested.

Nowadays, consumers' consciousness on me quality are very diversified and their pattern is changing from the price-priority to me quality-priority. So they prefer good-quality products without defects. Therefore quality is a core competence. To compete with me facts, it is very important to keep me the quality competence. To do so, one way is to introduce 100ppm quality innovation system. Many corporates introducing 100ppm improved defect rations(not only process defect ratios but also product defect ratios). In these respects, this study focuses on the comparison and measurement of performance by the analysis of quality system between 100ppm corporates and non-100ppm corporates. Second, this focuses on the finding out core competence reinforcement factors according to the introducing of 100ppm quality system to improve the performance. Third, this focuses on the persuading to introduce the 100ppm quality system to the non-100ppm corporates. Last, this focuses on the playing on the role of guidance to improve QM efficiency.

This study analyzed the cause and liability of a car fire. The car was purchased 1 year ago and had traveled 8,500 km. When the car stopped at a red right and was about to start when the light turned green, the car next to it sounded itsa horn. As a result, the driver stopped the car and found that there was a fire in the engine compartment, which the fire brigade subsequently extinguished. This car fire may have been caused by an electrical spark from a screw hook inserted into the battery + terminal. Therefore, the courts decided that the car owner or driver was not responsible for the fire, because the electrical spark from the hook that caused it resulted from the automaker's manufacturing defect.
