Recently, the area of ubiquitous has gained a great attention both in academics and in business organizations as we are entering an ubiquitous society where people can interact at "anytime" and "anywhere". To preoccupy the leading status for the next generation of IT technology, many countries such as Korea, Japan, and US are concerned the ubiquitous. In this tendency, companies want to identify what factors make people use ubiquitous in order to develop the effective ubiquitous service and to supply the higher quality service. However, prior researches on ubiquitous are focused on technical area such as higher data delivery, efficient compression of images, so they do not have given companies beneficial materials for making fascinating ubiquitous services. To offer the service materials for development, from the viewpoint of the customer, important factors to use ubiquitous services are investigated in this study. Moreover, the study was progressed up to the new area of investigation how much these factors influenced ubiquitous service actual usage. To achieve these goals, Ubiquitous service adopting reflected in ubiquitous service characteristics was suggested in this study. The results of this study are as follows. First, contextual offer, ubiquity, invisibility are positively related to perceived value. Second, perceived value is positively related to usage intention but perceived risk is negatively related to usage intention. Third, usage intention is positively related to usage frequency. Based on these results, managerial implications for ubiquitous service vitalization are discussed. Lastly, the limitation of this research and further research issues are suggested.

In this research, we analyzed the performance of the e-village shopping mall as an online agricultural business platform. The results suggested some critical factors that might assist the e-village owners to increase their sales by implementing the e-village information systems. We hypothesized that IT education, IT usage, online community activity, and organizational knowledge sharing influenced the e-village sales. Moreover, we investigated the moderating effect of rural experience tourism on those independent variables (IT education, IT usage, online community activity, and organizational knowledge sharing). The results indicated that online community activity had a positive effect on the online business sales, while IT education, IT usage, and organizational knowledge sharing showed insignificant effects. Furthermore, the interaction effects between rural experience tourism and both IT education and the IT usage were positive and significant. Thus, we conclude that the rural experience tourism moderated the relationship between (1) IT education and e-village sales, and (2) IT usage and e-village sales, but not the relationship between (1) online community activity and e-village sales, and (2) organizational knowledge sharing and e-village sales.

Today's individual firms no longer compete as solely autonomous entities, but rather as supply chain. As such the competitive position of a port is not only determined by its internal strengths but also it is also affected by its links in a global supply chin. In other words, port competitiveness is becoming increasingly dependent on external coordination and control of the whole supply chain. The main purpose of this paper is to examine how a port embeds itself into supply chain in order to strengthen its competitive position by focusing on Dubai port case. This paper found that Dubai port used three phases-insertion, integration and dominance-as a strategies for how it can embedded into global supply chain successfully. Dubai's global supply chain strategies give some implications for the further development of the Port of Gwangyang. First, the Port of Gwangyang should fully utilize symbiotic relationship with Gwangyang free Economic Zone. Second, the integration between Korea Container Terminal Authority and GYFEZ can be recommended for fast decision-making and providing a one-stop-service. Finally, Gwangyang should pursue an aggressive supply chain strategy, aims at dominance in the regional port network through port alliance with small and medium ports in neighboring area.

그 동안 지속적인 경제성장을 바탕으로 한국의 생명보험산업은 양적으로 성장하였다. 그러나 내면을 살펴보면 외형을 떠받칠 만큼 내실있게 성장했는지에 대해서는 많으 의구심을 갖게 한다. 현실적으로 경제성장을 바탕으로 한 외형성장은 한계를 맞을 수 밖에 없으며, 이제는 질적인 내실을 기하기 위해 그 동안 소홀히 했던 보함산업의 전반의 체질개선이 필요하다. IMF이후 경영이 부실한 보험사들이 퇴출되면서 전면적인 개편이 이루어졌고, 또한 보험사 내부에서도 전반적인 개혁의 필요성을 인식하여 여러 방면으로 방안을 구체화하고 있다. 본 논문은 이러한 상황하에서 생명보험산업의 기존 문제점 개선방안의 일환으로, 보험산업의 가장 핵심분야라 할 수 있는 언더라이팅 분야의 국내현황을 살펴보면서 보험선진국의 제도 및 운영현황과 비교 분석하여 부문별 문제점을 도출하고, 그에 따른 개선방안을 제안하게 되었으며, 본 논문에서 제시된 개선방안을 요약해 보면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 언더라이팅을 신속 정확하게 수행하고 도덕적 위험을 배제하기 위하여 개선된 정보교환시스템 제도를 구축해야 하며, 사정자료의 수집업무를 전문기관에게 아웃소싱함으로써 비용절감을 기하여야 한다. 이와 아울러 모집인의 전문성을 제고시켜 보험계약 청약서와 모집인 보고서가 정확하게 작성되도록 하고 언더라이팅 실적과 연계한 인센티브제도에 의하여 모집수당이 지급되도록 하여 언더라이팅이 효과적으로 수행되도록해야 할 것이다. 둘째, 언더라이팅기법의 선진화를 기함으로써 위험에 상응하는 보험료를 부가하여 위험에 노출되어 있는 가망고객의 보험가입율을 높이고, 보험사고 발생시 실질적인 보험혜택을 누리도록 하여야 한다. 이를 위한 실천방안으로 의적 직업적 재정적 언더라이팅 선진기법을 도입하여 각 부문의 역량을 강화해야 할 것이다. 특히 제도적으로 개인신용정보의 언더라이팅 활용이 제한되어 있는 현실에서 이를 법제도 내로 흡수하면서 개인의 사생활 유지라는 목적을 동시에 달성되도록 하는 재정적 언더라이팅 기법의 강화가 특히 중요하리라 생각된다. 아울러 언더라이팅 업무를 효과적 효율적 수행을 통해 일관성 있는 의사결정이 이루어질 수 있도록 지원하는 언더라이팅 시스템구축을 통해 정형화된 인수과정은 결정시스템화하고, 복잡한 위험의 경우 자문 시스템으로 운영하여 간단한 언더라이팅 업무는 구축된 시스템을 통해 즉각 해결함으로써 시간을 절약할 수 있고, 언더라이팅 인력은 보다 전문적인 부문에 집중하도록 해야 할 것이다. 마지막으로, 비표준위험시장의 활성화를 위해서는 현재의 제약조건인 생명보험 상품개발을 세트형에서 조립형으로 전환하고, 재보험으로 위험을 분산하여 비표준위험의 인수를 증대하여야 할 것이다. 이와 더불어 언더라이팅 과정에서 얻어진 피보험자의 사정자료를 활용하여 고객에게 필요한 의료정보 등을 제공함으로써, 피보험자와 유대관계를 돈독히 하여 기존계약이 계속 유지되도록 하며, 추가계약이 이루어지도록 해야 할 것이다. 이상과 같은 비표준위험의 언더라이팅 개선방안이 보다 효과적으로 수행되고 발전하기 위해서는 통계축적 및 관리, 전문 언더라이터 양성, 전산을 이용한 언더라이팅 확대 등이 이루어져야 하므로 향후 이에 대한 집중적인 연구가 있어야 할 것이다.

Since 1980, the number of universities have increased dramatically. However, compared to the quantitative growth, the lack of qualitative growth has often been criticized. Students entering university are estimated to decrease by half in 2025 compared to 2014. In swift response to challenges with decreasing student enrollment, the first University Reform Evaluation (URE) for innovating universities, was conducted and resulted in controversy. Opposition is based on distrust of the overall system, questioning the reliability of the evaluation process utilized for the URE evaluation index. Meta-evaluation is required to improve the quality of evaluation, and standards developed prior to conducting the URE. Therefore, an interdisciplinary approach is necessary for the evaluation of human resource development. This research uses the interdisciplinary approach from the human resources development point of view in attempting to develop meta-evaluation criteria which will enable effective evaluation and analysis of URE. The meta-evaluation standard features the creation of the ERPOU model, by conducting literature review, and considers data from expert symposiums, and surveys. The ERPOU model consists of 5 evaluation fields, 21 evaluation categories, and 42 evaluation standards.
