오늘날 많은 IT 관련 분야에서 컴퓨터 그래픽스 기술이 사용되고 있다. 더욱이 3D 프린터, Head Mount Display, VR & AR 등 컴퓨터 그래픽스와 밀접하게 관련된 분야에 대한 수요가 급증하고 있다. 앞으로 컴퓨터 그래픽스 분야는 더욱 전문화되고 이에 따른 인력의 수요도 증가할 것이다. 그러나 그래픽스 분야가 수학적 배경지식을 많이 요구하기 때문에 접근성이 낮고, 수요에 비해 이를 전공한 사람과 전문가의 숫자가 적다. 만약 그래픽스 프로그래밍을 쉽게 배울 수 있는 환경을 제공하다면, 컴퓨터 그래픽스 분야 인력 양성에 도움이 될 것이다. 따라서 이 논문에서 그래픽스 이론을 분석하여 초심자도 체계적이고 쉽게 배울 수 있는 교육용 소프트웨어 모델을 제시한다. 웹과 블록을 이용한 설계를 통해 접근성과 직관성을 높이고, 이론적인 내용을 중점적으로 학습할 수 있는 환경을 구축하는 방법을 제안한다.

In this paper, we first point out the limitation of the existing methods in usability evaluation, and propose a new method to find tasks and users that can cause problems in the use of software applications. To deal with object-based applications, we define unit actions and divide a given task into the sequence of unit actions. Then, we propose a new measure to calculate the degree of lostness for the unit actions. In several experiments, we show the proposed method can represent the usability well while the previous method has a problem in object-based applications. We also find that the user’s evaluation is more related to the proposed method than the previous method based on execution time through correlation analysis.

The application of software engineering is not common in the development of astronomical observation system. While there were component-wise developments in the past, large-scale comprehensive system developments are more common in these days. In this study, current methodologies of development are reviewed to select a proper one for the development of astronomical observation system and the result of the application is presented. As the subject of this study, a project of operation software development for an astronomical observation system which runs on the ground is selected. And the output management technique based on Component Based Development which is one of the relatively recent methodologies has been applied. Since the nature of the system requires lots of arithmetic algorithms and it has great impact on the overall performance of the entire system, a prototype model is developed to verify major functions and performance. Consequently, it was possible to verify the compliance with the product requirements through the requirement tracing table and also it was possible to keep to the schedule. Besides, it was suggested that a few improvements could be possible based on the experience of the application of conventional output management technique. This study is the first application of the software development methodology in the domestic astronomical observation system area. The process and results of this study would contribute to the investigation for a more appropriate methodology in the area of similar system development.

Space geodetic techniques can be used to obtain precise shape and rotation information of the Earth. To achieve this, the representative combination solution of each space geodetic technique has to be produced, and then those solutions need to be combined. In this study, the representative combination solution of very long baseline interferometry (VLBI), which is one of the space geodetic techniques, was produced, and the variations in the position coordinate of each station during 7 years were analyzed. Products from five analysis centers of the International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astrometry (IVS) were used as the input data, and Bernese 5.0, which is the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data processing software, was used. The analysis of the coordinate time series for the 43 VLBI stations indicated that the latitude component error was about 15.6 mm, the longitude component error was about 37.7 mm, and the height component error was about 30.9 mm, with respect to the reference frame, International Terrestrial Reference Frame 2008 (ITRF2008). The velocity vector of the 42 stations excluding the YEBES station showed a magnitude difference of 7.3 mm/yr (30.2%) and a direction difference of 13.8° (3.8%), with respect to ITRF2008. Among these, the 10 stations in Europe showed a magnitude difference of 7.8 mm/yr (30.3%) and a direction difference of 3.7° (1.0%), while the 14 stations in North America showed a magnitude difference of 2.7 mm/yr (15.8%) and a direction difference of 10.3° (2.9%).

An integrated orbit and attitude control algorithm for satellite formation flying was developed, and an integrated orbit and attitude software-in-the-loop (SIL) simulator was also developed to test and verify the integrated control algorithm. The integrated algorithm includes state-dependent Riccati equation (SDRE) control algorithm and PD feedback control algorithm as orbit and attitude controller respectively and configures the two algorithms with an integrating effect. The integrated SIL simulator largely comprises an orbit SIL simulator for orbit determination and control, and attitude SIL simulator for attitude determination and control. The two SIL simulators were designed considering the performance and characteristics of related hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulators and were combined into the integrated SIL simulator. To verify the developed integrated SIL simulator with the integrated control algorithm, an orbit simulation and integrated orbit and attitude simulation were performed for a formation reconfiguration scenario using the orbit SIL simulator and the integrated SIL simulator, respectively. Then, the two simulation results were compared and analyzed with each other. As a result, the user satellite in both simulations achieved successful formation reconfiguration, and the results of the integrated simulation were closer to those of actual satellite than the orbit simulation. The integrated orbit and attitude control algorithm verified in this study enables us to perform more realistic orbit control for satellite formation flying. In addition, the integrated orbit and attitude SIL simulator is able to provide the environment of easy test and verification not only for the existing diverse orbit or attitude control algorithms but also for integrated orbit and attitude control algorithms.

The detail design for overhead line can be divided into a MD(Mounting Diagram) design and pegging plan process. A MD design for a high-speed overhead line was performed by the design software. The MD design of Honam High-Speed catenary system was also performed the software. However, the MD design software for 400km/h overhead line is needed, because the tension of wires and conditions are different from 350km/h system. Therefore, in this study, a MD design software for 400km/h overhead line system is developed.

To evaluate color change of concrete subjected to high temperature, we manufactured concrete samples and heated them to target temperatures of 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700 and 800℃ in an electric oven and performed photo image analysis using photoshop computer software. The result of the study shows that color change using photo image analysis can be evaluated according to the different color coordinate.

Berthing and unberthing maneuver is essential work for marine pilots and securing the safety against risks during the maneuver is more important than anything else. Moreover, the maneuvering environment in ports and harbors has changed rapidly and got worse due to development of a new port, the advent of a new type or large-sized ship, and the rapid increase in harbor traffic. As one of measures taken to cope with such changes in the maneuvering environment and for each pilot to improve his own maneuvering ability, this paper developed laptop-based ship-handling simulator which is readily available anytime and anywhere. This paper is to develop a conning display for ship's maneuvering and electronic chart based display widely used nowadays to represent a model ship's movement. The displays were arranged appropriately considering pilot age, easy handling by mouse, using a maximum screen, proper arrangement of rudder, engine, thruster, tug etc and representation of information. Up to now thirteen (13) model ships were developed based on real-ship, whose mathematical model is Japanese MMG & pilots' low speed maneuver.

최근 국제해사기구에서 추진하고 있는 e-navigation은 선박의 안전운항을 위한 다양한 서비스를 지향하고 있다. 이에 따라, 해양 분야에 다양한 소프트웨어 개발이 기대되고 있으며, 동시에 그 품질의 중요성이 높아지고 있다. 이 논문에서는 소프트웨어의 품질 향상의 실험을 위해, 기존 AIS중개서버 프로그램에 소프트웨어 리팩토링(refactoring) 기법을 적용하였으며, 그 효과를 분석하였다. 리팩토링은 소프트웨어를 소스 코드 수준에서 구조의 복잡성을 줄여서, 이해하기 쉽고 기능 변경이 용이한 상태로 변경하는 기법이다. 이를 통해, 겉으로 보이는 동작의 변화는 없이 내부구조가 변경된다. 리팩토링 적용 효과 분석을 위해서, IEC/ISO 9126 소프트웨어 품질표준의 유지보수성과 관련된 기존 메트릭의 산술적 측정기법을 도입했다.

A URC, which is a Ubiquitous Robot Companion, provides services to users in ubiquitous computing environments and has advantage of simplifying robot's hardware and software by distributing the complicated functionality of robots to other system. In this paper, we propose SOWL, which is a software architecture for URC robots and a mixed word of SOMAR and CAWL. SOWL keeps the advantages of URC and it also has the loosely-coupled characteristics. Moreover it makes it easy to develop of URC robot software. The proposed architecture is composed of 4 layers: device software, robot software, robot application, and end user layer. Developers of the each layer is able to build software suitable for their requirements by combining software modules in the lower layer. SOWL consists of SOMAR and CAWL engine. SOMAR, which is a middleware for the execution of device software and robot software, is based on service-oriented architecture(SOA) for robot software. CAWL engine is a system to process CAWL which is a context-aware workflow language. SOWL is able to provide a layered architecture for the execution of a robot software. It also makes it possible for developers of the each layer to build module-based robot software.

Robotic software has been dramatically complicated as performing intelligent service tasks. These types of robots demand a very powerful software framework to make them easy. Robotic software framework means an integrated software environment that simplifies jobs of robotic software engineer by providing tools, reusable components, and runtime environments. Finally it reduces the project cost. There are lots of works related with them. Among them we focus on five frameworks that are MSRDS, ERSP, OROCOS, OpenRTM, and OPRoS. In terms of intelligent service robot, the study on robotic software frameworks is very important. And outlook on them is also very important in the sense of that the robotic software frameworks should be used to initiate service robot market.

Plant leaf color is an important indicator for diagnosing the plant nutrient status. A software was developed by Crop Environment and Production Technology Lab. of Seoul National University to analyze the color image of rice canopy taken at panicle initiation stage (PIS) with digital camera and to recommend nitrogen fertilizer rate for target yield or protein content of rice. The software was coded in Visual Basic Ver. 6.0 and includes subroutine to calculate color indices from the digital image and several model equations relating the color indices to biomass and nitrogen accumulation of rice canopy at PIS, the grain yield to nitrogen density at PIS (PNup) and nitrogen accumulation from PIS to maturity (PHNup), and the PHNup to PNup and nitrogen fertilization rate at PIS. The objective of this study were to test the performance of the Software. Using the Software, nitrogen fertilization rate at PIS was recommended targeting the rice protein content of 6.3% for the 12 plots subjected to different amount of basal and tillering N fertilizer. N recommendation using the software reduced the coefficient of variation (CV, %) of rice yield and protein content among plots compared to the conventional N treatment plots. However, the actual protein content of rice was lower than the predicted value. This discrepancy would be attributable to the much better weather condition during grain filling period in 2009 compared to the normal year that assume in the Software for N recommendation. Additional calibration process is needed to improve the accuracy of this Software.

이 논문은 2009년 2월 20일 미국의 제9 연방순회항소법원에서 내려진 Video Software Dealers Association v. Arnold Schwarzenegger 사건에 대한 판결의 의미와 한국게임법제도에의 시사점을 검토한 것이다. 이 사건에서 제9 연방순회항소법원은 폭력성 비디오게임을 18세 미만의 미성년자에게 판매하거나 대여하는 것을 금지하는 캘리포니아 주법(州法)이 미국 연방헌법에 명시된 미성년자 (minor)의 권리를 침해한다는 판결을 내렸다. 이에 비해서 한국의 헌법재판소는 청소년보호를 위한 청소년유해매체물 제도와 사전등급분류 제도에 대해서는 합헌이라는 결정을 하였다. 헌법재판소는 미국의 제9 연방항소법원의 판결과 같이 음란과 폭력성을 구분하여 접근하고 있고, 폭력성 개념이 대해서 간접적으로 위헌적이라는 결정을 한 바 있다. 미국법원의 덜 제한적인 수단의 선택이라는 법리와 헌법재판소의 최소침해성 원칙에서 본다면 청소년유해매체물 제도와 사전등급분류 제도의 중첩 적용은 문제될 수 있으며, 이 중에서 더 강한 규제가 위헌이 될 소지가 있다.
