Business processes are often of long duration, and include internal worker's decision making, which makes business processes to be exposed to many exceptional situations. These properties of business processes makes it difficult to guarantee successful termination of business processes at the design phase. The behavioral properties of business processes mainly depends on the data aspects of business processes. To formalize the data aspect of process modeling, this paper proposes a graph-based model, called Data Dependency Graph (DDG), constructed from dependency relationships specified between business data. The paper also defines a mechanism of describing a set of mapping rules that generates a process model semantically equivalent to a DDG, which is accomplished by allocating data dependencies to component activities.

Euclidean Voronoi diagram of spheres in 3D has not been explored as much as it deserves even though it has significant potential impacts on diverse applications in both science and engineering. In addition, studies on the data structure for its topology have not been reported yet. Presented in this paper is the topological representation for Euclidean Voronoi diagram of spheres which is represented as a cell structure as one of typical non-manifold models. The topological representation is a variation of radial edge data structure with a consideration on the topological characteristics of Euclidean Voronoi diagram of spheres distinguished from general non-manifold models and Euclidean Voronoi diagram of points. Various topological queries in the Voronoi diagram are also presented and analyzed.

Fuzzy information representation of multi-source spatial data is applied to landslide hazard mapping. Information representation based on frequency ratio and non-parametric density estimation is used to construct fuzzy membership functions. Of particular interest is the representation of continuous data for preventing loss of information. The non-parametric density estimation method applied here is a Parzen window estimation that can directly use continuous data without any categorization procedure. The effect of the new continuous data representation method on the final integrated result is evaluated by a validation procedure. To illustrate the proposed scheme, a case study from Jangheung, Korea for landslide hazard mapping is presented. Analysis of the results indicates that the proposed methodology considerably improves prediction capabilities, as compared with the case in traditional continuous data representation.

각 산업분야의 엔지니어들은 각종 정보기술을 이용하여 통합환경을 구축해 오고 있다. 통합환경 구축을 위한 핵심기술은 표준화된 정보를 기반으로 한 데이터베이스이다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 요구사항에 대처하고 각종업무에서 발생하는 전자정보를 통합하기 위한 일환으로 강교량의 설계정보를 포함하는 데이터베이스를 구축하였다. 데이터베이스 구축과정에서 데이터 구조로 사용된 데이터모델은 국제 표준 즉, ISO/STEP(STandard for the Exchange of Product model data)을 기반으로 강교량의 설계정보를 표현할 수 있도록 기하부분과 비기하부분으로 분류되었다. 기하부분의 정보는 기존정보의 재사용이 가능하도록 3차원 솔리드모델로 표현하고, 비기하부분의 정보는 표준 데이터모델 개발 방법론에 의거해 분석된 정보요구사항을 표현하였다. 개발된 데이터모델의 검증을 위해서, 본 연구에서는 EXPRESS Engine을 이용하여 모델의 구문을 검토하였으며, 한남대교의 설계 데이터를 데이터베이스에 저장하여 개발된 모델의 타당성을 입증하였다

많은 사용자가 함께 즐기는 온라인 게임(MMOGs)에서 IoT의 확장은 서버에 엄청난 부하를 지 속적으로 증가시켜, 모든 데이터들이 Big-Data화 되어가는 환경에 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 딥러 닝 기법 중에서 가장 많이 사용되는 Sparse Autoencoder와 이미 잘 알려진 부하분산 알고리즘 (ProGReGA-KF)을 결합한다. 기존 알고리즘 ProGReGA-KF과 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘을 이동 안정성으로 비교하였고, 제안한 알고리즘이 빅-데이터 환경에서 좀 더 안정적이고 확장성이 있 음 시뮬레이션을 통해 보였다.

Mapping is a fundamental element for robotic services. There are available many types of map data representation such as grid map, metric map, topology map, etc. As more robots are deployed for services, more chances of exchanging map data among the robots emerge and standardization of map data representation (MDR) becomes more valuable. Currently, activities in developing MDR standard are underway in IEEE Robotics and Automation Society. The MDR standard is for a common representation and encoding of the two-dimensional map data used for navigation by mobile robots. The standard focuses on interchange of map data among components and systems, particularly those that may be supplied by different vendors. This paper aims to introduce MDR standard and its application to map merging. We have applied the basic structure of the MDR standard to a grid map and Voronoi graph as a kind of topology map and performed map merging between two different maps. Simulation results show that the proposed MDR is suitable for map data exchange among robots.
