This paper presents the Module Class Dependency Graph for expressing the dependency relations between classes effectively. The object-oriented language is developed independently at design time, and consists of relationship between classes. Therefore we need to consider these characteristics of independence, and to express effectively the relation of classes which is existed in class hierarchy. In the System Dependence Graph and Class Dependence Graph, the relationship of classes is not expressed. To express the class relationship, we propose the Module Class Dependence Graph, and we verify the effectiveness of this method applying to object constructor, inheritance relationship and dynamic binding. Also, we presents the expressing method of parameter to identify the member data of classes. Using this Module Class Dependency Graph, we can analyze the relationship of module class correctly at design time. This method can be applied to reverse engineering, testing, visualization and other various fields to analyze system.

This letter addresses a structural disambiguation method for Korean adverbs based on the correlative relation constraints between adverbs and modifiees, and the morphological context information of sentences. Using the proposed method, we improved the dependency parsing accuracy of adverbs from 79.2 to 89%. The experimental result shows that the proposed method is especially expert in parsing adverbs which can modify multiple word classes or have a long distance dependency relation to their modifiees.

Component-based development is being generalized as the spread of software reuse technology for rapid development productivity and high quality software.In the CBD, the identification of independent and reusable component is the one of important tasks for component-based system development. Because existing methodologies providing component identification techniques provide techniques based on heuristic techniques of component developer, it is difficult for general developers to identify components using these methods. Therefore, this paper suggests new identification factors and a technique by considering dependency characteristics according to method call types and method call directions and dependency degree. Furthermore, proposed technique is verified through case study; business components based on system components are identified effectively.

Game object inheritance and multiple components allow for visualization of system architecture, good code reuse, and fast prototyping. On the other hand, objects are more likely to rely on high latency between game objects and components, static casts, and lots of references to things like null pointers. Therefore, It is important to design a game in such a way so that the dependency of objects on multiple classes could be reduced and existing codes could be reused. Therefore, we designed the game to make the classes more modular by applying Dependency Injection and the design patterns proposed by the Gang of Four. Since these dependencies are attributes of the game object and the injection occurs only in the initialization pass, there is little performance degradation or performance penalty in the game loop. Therefore, this paper proposed an efficient design method to effectively reuse APIs in the design and implementation of survival games.

Object oriented design brought up improvement of productivity and software quality by adopting some concepts such as inheritance and encapsulation. However, both the number of software's classes and object couplings are increasing as the software volume is becoming larger. The object coupling between classes is closely related with software complexity, and high complexity causes decreasing software quality. In order to solve the object coupling issue, IT-field researchers adopt a component based development and software quality metrics. The component based development requires explicit representation of dependencies between classes and the software quality metrics evaluates quality of software. As part of the research, we intend to gain a basic data that will be used on decomposing software. We focused on properties of the linkage between classes rather than previous studies evaluated and accumulated the qualities of individual classes. Our method exploits machine learning technique to analyze the properties of linkage and predict the strength of dependency between classes, as a new perspective on analyzing software property.

The coupling measurements of object oriented programs can be valuable information for various maintenance tasks and there exists a variety of metrics proposed by numerous researchers. Those metrics, however, cannot measure the strength of dependencies between classes, but only imply the existence of dependencies. Hence they are of limited value for assisting maintenance tasks such as refactoring and system decomposition, which requires information about the strength of dependency. In this paper, a coupling metric which can measure the strength of dependence as well as detect the existence of dependencies is proposed. Our coupling metric is evaluated based on the cost required for performing the maintenance tasks. We have applied the proposed coupling metric to an example of system decomposition in an effort to assess the potential benefits of our approach for maintenance tasks.

In component-based system, the qualities of components as reusable units are the most important to success the component-based development. Therefore, before software implementation phase, the designed components should be measurable to improve the qualities of the components and the measured results should be reflected in the component-based development phase. In addition, the qualities of the components should be measured accurately. Accordingly, this paper proposes cohesion and coupling metrics applying static and dynamic dependency characteristics by the interdependence between classes. We prove the theoretical soundness of the proposed metrics by the axiom of briand et al. A case study and a comparison with the conventional metrics verify the practicality of the proposed metrics. The development times and endeavors to design the components is reduced, because the proposed metrics measure the qualities of components accurately.

Recently, service-oriented systems have been issued by their properties of reducing software development time and effort by reusing functional service units. The reusability of services can effectively promote through loose coupling between services and loose coupling between services depends on component-based system. That is, the component-based system is designed by grouping the tightly coupled classes of the object-oriented system and the service-oriented system is designed by the component-based system. Therefore, to design the component-based system and service-oriented system efficiently, a metric to measure the coupling between classes accurately needs. In this paper, we propose a coupling metric between classes applying a structural property, a dynamic property, and the normalized value by 0-1. We prove the theoretical soundness of the proposed metric by the axioms of briand et al, and suggest the accuracy and practicality through a case study. We suggest the evaluation results of the proposed metric through a comparison with the conventional metrics.

In the South Sea of Korea, in vivo fluorescence intensity (IVF) and extractable chlorophyll a concentration were measured to determine whether there was significant defference in in vivo fluorescence per unit chlorophyll a (R) between netplankton and nanoplankton size classes (less than $22{\mu}m$). IVF and chlorophyll a were linearly related for both size classes, but R's were significantly different between two size classes. The R of nanoplankton was about 7 times higher than that of netplankton. Therefore, the size dependency of R must be taken into consideration when size fraction of phytoplankton biomass is determined from the measurements of in vivo fluorescence intensity.

The purpose of this study was to classify the elementary school students to latent groups according to the type of mobile phone usage and to verify the relationship with mobile phone dependency. The latent profile analysis was conducted using the first grade panel data of the elementary school in the Korea Children 's Youth Panel in 2016. The results found 3 latent classes of mobile phone usage: family and friend concentration (Type1), family concentration low level (Type2) and essential (Type3). The results of multiple regression analysis for verifying the relationship between mobile phone use type and mobile phone dependency showed a significant effect. The Type 2 showed more dependency than the Type 1, and the Type 1 showed more dependency than the Type 3. These findings provided basis for the guideline of mobile phones use and for proper intervention to prevent mobile phone dependency for elementary school students.
