The purpose of this study is to analyze compact city planning indicators that have influence on public transportation commuting of residents in the 54 medium and small-sized cities. In the study, land use and transportation infrastructure of cities and other socio-demographic variables are used as explanatory variables in a causal model. 96,552 subjects from 54 cities in korea are selected as the final sample, and a statistical analysis is carried out by applying Random Intercept Logit Model. Analysis shows that a high level of density and jobs-housing balance in the city results in more public transportation commuting. And higher access to bus and subway station influence commuting, so subway & bus stop are important factors to increase public transportation commuting

Since the 2000s, China has been trying to develop the mid- and western regions and reduce regional disparity between the eastern region and the others by construction of the eight HSR corridors known as 4+4. The high-speed railway is known to have a positive impact on regional economic development by improving accessibility between regions. However, some studies point out that the high-speed railways could worsen regional imbalances. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of the high-speed railway on regional economic growth and balanced development in China, using the beta-convergence model. In particular, we focused on how the effects of high-speed trains on regional economic development varied depending on the level of development. The analysis was conducted centering on the Shanghai-Chengdu line which is connecting eastern, central and western regions with different levels of development.

In the case of ICT-enabled organizational changes such as Smart Work, appropriate change management is required. To achieve work-life balance, organizational change management should be conducted from both a structural and a cultural perspective. This study looked at organizational factors that affect Smart Work facilitation through a case study with the view of ICT-enabled change management. From November to December 2019, eight Smart Workers of Company A were interviewed and analyzed for organizational support. The results show that structural support such as institutionalization, ICT infrastructure office environment improvement, Smart Work center as well as cultural support such as enhancing autonomy, communicating style of managers, trusting organizational climate are required. The findings suggest balanced organizational support to provide cultural support along with structural support for activating Smart Work operations. In the future, it is necessary to demonstrate the causality between structural/cultural support factors and outcome factors.

Although coal has been utilized as major fuel, it is known as 'most climate unfriendly' fuel. Carbon tax or tradable permit policy has been discussed as major measure for reducing production and consumption of coal, but it might be more efficient to remove subsidy on coal production and consumption. This study examines economic and environmental effects of recycling revenue from reducing subsidy on the use of coal to foster climate friendly fuel (ligneous biomass) by price subsidy or increased public expenditure. A static CGE model was applied to analyze the welfare consequences and economic impacts of two policy measures. The result shows that price subsidy policy is more desirable than creation of public demand in terms of welfare as well as overall economic impacts.

The traditional concept of ginseng quality was investigated in relation to historical experiences. traditional quality measure and mordern analytical method. The traditional concept appears to be based on the original Korean thought of oneness in life and universe. The outside appearance such as shape and size in traditional quality measure includes the inside quality. Since certain shape and size define specific tissues. cells and biologically active substances in cells the traditional measure will he a map for analytical method to find active principles. Traditional method suggests that the balance among biologically active compounds seems to he more important than the large amount of one active compound and that the mode of active compounds in ginseng for the homeostasis of human body is the multicompound to multitarget system. Traditional method strongly suggests the importance of nitrogen compounds. especially soluble protein and heat stable protein for the balance of active principles since nitrogen compounds are more abundant in the central part (xylem-pith) that grows faster than the outer part (cortex-epidermis). The balance of physiologically active principles appeares to be meaningful in relation to the difference in traditional use of Panax species.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Healing Beat on autonomic balance, heart rate, and anxiety in healthy adults exposed to stressors. Data were collected from 64 healthy volunteers who volunteered after responded to a recruitment announcement at D City University and analyzed using descriptive statistics, the X2-test, the t-test, and repeated measures of ANOVA. Results showed that both experimental and control general characteristics and variables were homogeneous. Significant intergroup differences were obtained for autonomic balance (F = 6.151, p <.001), heart rate (F = 5.455, p <.001), and anxiety (t = -7.633, p <.001). These results indicate Healing Beat is effective at relieving anxiety in stressful situations, and that Healing Beat can be used to relieve stress in many clinical situations or daily life when individuals are exposed to various stressors.

This paper investigates the existence of uncovered interest rate parity between the Korea-USA as well as the Korea-Japan. We may ascertain the existence of uncovered interest rate parity by examining the empirical relationship between real exchange rates and interest rate differentials in the Korea-USA as well as in the Korea-Japan. The empirical relationship between real exchange rates and interest rate differentials in the Korean-USA and Korean-Japanese economies is investigated using cointegration tests. In the context of this study, cointegration technique is appropriate to examine the relationship between two(or more) nonstationary time series. Also, this method is useful to detect the possibility that the nonstationarity in both series can be explained by a single factor. The empirical results support the nonexistence of a long run equilibrium relation between real exchange rates and interest rate differentials. Also, the results show that the nonstationarity cannot be explained by a single factor.

We use the properties of competitive location equilibrium to study the relationship between the demand for education and the choice of primary residential location. Consumers can work and live in a comparatively high wage place where there are few education opportunities, or live in a place where education is available and commute to work. If education and employment are each location-specific, there are pooling equilibria in which consumers locate according to their preference for education. In general, the stronger the taste for education, the greater the attraction of living close to the education site and the lower the demand for other goods, including housing. Exploring the effects of the model parameters on the spatial distribution of consumers, we find that a higher frequency of trips taken to the education site, a shorter distance between the work place and the education site, or a greater out-of-pocket education cost each leads to a wider range of consumer types selecting to reside at the education location. We also find that a higher wage lowers the range of consumers who select to live near the education site.

This study investigated the rate of setup variance by the rotating unbalance of gantry in image-guided radiation therapy. The equipments used linear accelerator(Elekta Synergy TM, UK) and a three-dimensional volume imaging mode(3D Volume View) in cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) system. 2D images obtained by rotating $360^{\circ}$and $180^{\circ}$ were reconstructed to 3D image. Catpan503 phantom and homogeneous phantom were used to measure the setup errors. Ball-bearing phantom was used to check the rotation axis of the CBCT. The volume image from CBCT using Catphan503 phantom and homogeneous phantom were analyzed and compared to images from conventional CT in the six dimensional view(X, Y, Z, Roll, Pitch, and Yaw). The variance ratio of setup error were difference in X 0.6 mm, Y 0.5 mm Z 0.5 mm when the gantry rotated $360^{\circ}$ in orthogonal coordinate. whereas rotated $180^{\circ}$, the error measured 0.9 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm in X, Y, Z respectively. In the rotating coordinates, the more increased the rotating unbalance, the more raised average ratio of setup errors. The resolution of CBCT images showed 2 level of difference in the table recommended. CBCT had a good agreement compared to each recommended values which is the mechanical safety, geometry accuracy and image quality. The rotating unbalance of gentry vary hardly in orthogonal coordinate. However, in rotating coordinate of gantry exceeded the ${\pm}1^{\circ}$ of recommended value. Therefore, when we do sophisticated radiation therapy six dimensional correction is needed.
