We at Mitsubishi have lined up Gen-III+ solutions for a wide variety of global customers: ATMEA1 of the 1100MWe class, and an APWR with the largest capacity of 1700MWe. In this paper, we would like to introduce the APWR. With an increased requirement for nuclear power generation as an effective countermeasure against global warming, we have established the APWR plant, a large-capacity Mitsubishi standard reactor combining our accumulated experience and technology as an integrated PWR plant supplier. The APWR plant has achieved high reliability, safety and enhanced economy based on a technology that has been developed with the support of the government and utilities through improvement and standardization programs of light water reactors. Currently, Tsuruga Units 3 and 4, the first two APWRs, are undergoing licensing, while we are making efforts to obtain the standard design certification (DC) of US-APWR and preparing for the European Utility Requirements (EUR) compliance assessment of EU-APWR. Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) positions the APWR as a core technology that will contribute to the prevention of global warming and meet worldwide requirements.

In this paper, we propose a Model Driven Development using UML(Unified Modeling Language) in an efficient Combat System Software development methods. UML is managed by the OMG (Object Management Group) as a Unified Modeling Language. Recently, In developing the software for the system, development time is contrary to a short, while it must meet a number of requirements of our customers. If you develop a non-efficient software early, the structure of the software become more complex in proportion to the number of requirements. As a result, a serious problem in the system, such as an increase in defective products due to the lowering of the reliability and communication problems between the developer has occurred. To overcome those problems, the aim of this paper is to develop a reusable high efficient Combat System Software by applying Model-Centric Development (Not Code-Centric Development). If Combat System Software development method using the UML proposed in this paper is used, easy communication among developers can help reduce the serious errors in systems. Also, it has the advantage that the future needs of software maintenance/repair become easy by using high readability object Model.

Software verification and validation(V&V) is a means to develop high-quality software and assure safety and reliability for software. Also, we can achieve the desired software quality through systematic V&V activities. The software to be applied safety critical system like nuclear power plants is required to setup the V&V methodology that comply with licensing requirements for nuclear power plants and should be performed V&V activities according to it. In this paper, we classified safety-critical, safety-related and non-safety for software according to safety function to be peformed and define V&V activities to be applied software grade. Also, we defined V&V activities, procedures and documentation for each phase of software development life cycle and showed techniques and management to perform V&V. Finally, we propose the V&V framework to be applied software development of SMART(System-integrated Modular Advanced ReacTor) MMIS (Man-Machine Interface System) and to comply with domestic licensing requirements.

Because of new requirements related to the employment of SMT(Surface Mounting Technology) manufacturing and the diversity of components on high density PCB(Printed Circuit Boards), Thermal control of the reflow process is required in order to achieve acceptable yields and reliability of SMT assemblies. Accurate control of the temperature distribution during the reflow process is one of the major requirements, especially in lead-free assembly. This study has been performed for reflow process using the commercial CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) tool for predicting flow and temperature distributions. Porous plate was installed to prevent leakage flow which was one of the major problem of temperature uniformity in the reflow process. There is a separation region where the flow is turned. Outside wall made of porous plate is to prevent and minimize separation region for acquiring uniform temperature during operation. This paper provided design concept from CFD results of the steady state temperature distribution and flow field inside a reflow oven.

As a railway is receiving attention as an environment-friendly transportation mode, many high speed, inter-city and urban railway are constructed and remodeled in the world. With this trend, railway RAMS was included in the international standard IEC 62278 in 2002. RAMS activity in domestic market is also increased with this international trend. However, IEC 62278 does not describe the methodology of substantial contents like how reliability target is set although it can be used as an overall guideline when RAMS requirements are included in the purchase specification. That is because RAMS requirements should be set with the specific railway condition. It is required to fully understand the meaning of railway RAMS parameters and apply those correspond to the specific railway system and environment condition especially when a quantitative RAMS requirement is set. In this study, the meaning and characteristics of RAMS parameters applicable to the development of quantitative RAMS requirement of rolling stock is described. And the basic concept of RAMS and the definition of failure that IEC 62278 describes is modified and suggested in order to make more suitable to the development of quantitative RAMS requirement.

Despite the exponential throughput improvement in mobile communications systems, their ability to satisfy requirements of state-of-the-art and future applications of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) is still under investigation. Challenges are mainly due to the inadequacy of third generation partnership project (3GPP) networks to support large amounts of devices simultaneously, while the number of AMI end-devices and the frequency of their data transmission increase with new AMI-based applications. In this introductory survey, innovative and future AMI applications and their communication requirements are first reviewed. Then, we identify challenges of 3GPP long term evolution (LTE) in enabling future AMI applications. More importantly, the latest improvements to LTE-A standard release 12 and 13 are reviewed and analyzed with regards to their potential to improve the quality of LTE-enabled AMI. It is found that 3GPP enhancements on machine type communications (MTC) standards will significantly enhance AMI communications. Beyond MTC specifications, non-MTC-specific enhancements such as carrier aggregation and multi-connectivity for user equipment will also contribute greatly to improving reliability and availability of AMI devices. The paper's focus is towards improved backhaul support for innovative and future AMI applications, beyond traditional automatic meter reading.

The ever increasing requirements on today's compacts with regard to their geometry and precision call for flexible high-precision and most capable production systems. DORST Technologies has coped with these requirements by developing the new HP series for pressing forces between 1600 kN and 16000 kN and the new HS series for pressing forces between 150 kN and 1200 kN. These fully hydraulic presses featuring upper ram, lower ram, core rod, filler, up to 4 lower tool levels and up to 4 upper tool levels with closed-loop controlled movements. Thanks to latest servo technology and an electronic bus system it is possible to have all movements closed-loop controlled in the desired relation to each other. Thus, today's hydraulic presses provide high stroke rates, low energy consumption and a user-friendly interface. The input of data is carried out via clearly arranged screen masks on a touch-screen. The innovative DORST $IPG^{(R)}$ (Intelligent Program Generator) has been designed to support the set-up staff in preparing and optimizing the toolprogram. The combination of the machine type with the hydraulic unit determines the productivity in consideration of the specific application and the part to be pressed. Thanks to the closed-loop control circuits, DORST hydraulic automatic presses of the latest generation ensure unmatched precision and repeatability - and consequently process reliability - often without necessitating subsequent machining steps.
