The request scheduling algorithms being used for the cluster web servers are mostly in two categories : load-balancing and contents-based cache affinity The goal of the load-balancing algorithms is to balance the loads between real servers. On the other hand, contents-based scheduling algorithm exploits the cache affinity in a way that the same type of requests are to be directed to a dedicated real server allowing load imbalance. So the performance comparison of the two algorithms is necessary, nevertheless the related experiment results are not much suggested. In this paper, performance evaluations have been done to compare the performance of the two scheduling algorithms. To accomplish this, we first implement a linux cluster web server, and then present the performance measurement results. The main contribution of this paper is to help the cluster web server administrators to select an algorithm fitting in with their circumstances from the two algorithms.

This research, which is quite different from previous studies, has tried to understand the relationships among aesthetic dimensions, on the basis of product aesthetic and how these consumer preferences change according to changes of these dimensions. For this research, the factors of simplicity/complexity and balance among many aesthetic elements were chosen through experiment, and products which are on the market were divided into 4 categories with the FCB Grid. Two products of each respective category were selected and a typical model was chosen for each other. These models were changed only with the factors of simplicity/complexity and balance, in order to make a show-card. The relationships between simplicity/complexity, balance, and consumer preferences has been proven with the show-card. The measured value change of consumer preferences will be provided for design development as basic data. The relationship among the various aesthetic dimensions will improve through consistent research.

This study attempted to systematically and comprehensively analyze individual studies in which exercise program on total knee replacement patients. The electronic database for literature search used the Korean educational Academic Information (RISS), Korean Academic Information (KISS) and Nuri Media (DBPIA). We investigated a prior study of exercise program applied to total knee replacement patients from 2015 to February 2021. For meta-analysis, effect size of each individual study was extracted using R project for Statistical computing version 4.0.3. Rob 2.0 tool, developed by the Cochrane group, was used to evaluate the quality of each individual study. The overall effect size exercise program with pain and balance was 0.99 (95% CI=0.53-1.44), which was significantly different than large effect size (p<0.05). The sub-group for pain was analyzed, for effect size of 0.62 and the effect size of balance scale(timed up and go test) was 1.00. Through these results, it was found that exercise program is an effective exercise for total knee replacement patients, and further research is needs.

Currently we have 11 climatological stations registered in World Meteorological Organization. Geographically, these stations are unevenly distributed in Korea and are mainly located on seaside. Therefore station's density analysis should be performed to produce the high-quality climatological data. Using the correlation integral method, the density of climatological stations can be measured by the estimation of fractal dimension. In this study, new climatological stations having the higher fractal dimension were selected. Sequential or simultaneous selection method were carried out until 3 new stations were selected based on the fractal dimension.

The main purpose of this study is to assess the effect of using Balanced Scorecard, and relationship among learning and growth performance, internal business performance, customer performance, financial performance, and business performance. To achieve this study, theoretical and empirical studies related to Balanced Scorecard were carried out simultaneously. A field survey was undertaken through questionnaire sampling a population of construction firms. The established hypotheses related to Balanced Scorecard and organizational performance were verified by the paired-t test analysis using SPSS. The result of this research are as follows : First, BSC firm's learning and growth performance are higher than those of before BSC adopting firms significantly. Second, BSC firm's internal business performance level is higher than that of before BSC firm's significantly. Third, BSC firm's customer performance level is higher than that of before BSC firm's significantly. Fourth, BSC firm's financial performance level is higher than that of before BSC firm's significantly. Fifth, BSC firm's Business performance level is higher than that of before BSC firm's significantly. This study contributes to the BSC research by being the study focus on the BSC at the general indicators and provides evidence that may help understanding the possible relationship between BSC adoption and improvement of organizational performance. There are some limitations, however, of this study. The result are based on a cross sectional sample of construction firms, which may not be reflective of the entire population.

This study examines whether the widening gap between income groups is worsening in the distribution of time use, similar to the worsening of income distribution after the IMF. To do this, we conducted multilevel analysis (HLM) on six countries including France, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States and Korea. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, in all countries, low income groups have a longer paid working time and shorter leisure time. Second, the low income groups in Korea have the longest paid work time and the shortest leisure time, the lowest level of work-leisure balance, and this aspect has not recovered since the IMF. Third, as the result of multilevel analysis, the lower the household income, the more time paid labor increased and the work-leisure balance decreased. Fourth, while average annual working hours increase paid working time, the expansion of family policy expenditure, redistribution policy and income maintenance policy has reduced it. Fifth, the annual average working hours decreased the work-leisure balance, but the family policy expenditure, the redistribution policy and the income guarantee policy increased the work-leisure balance. The significance of this study is that after the IMF, not only the income distribution but also the inequality among the income class in time use has deepened. Based on the results of the research this study suggests the reinforcement of labor time regulation, the activation of parental leave system, the realization of the income replacement rate, the expansion of the policy related to income redistribution, and the complementary development of the income guarantee and the time guarantee policy as the policy intervention strategy that restructures time.

In order for a strategy established by a company to be implemented efficiently, it must be supported by an appropriate organizational culture. This means that if a firm has an organizational culture suitable for strategy implementation, performance can be enhanced. This study divides competitive strategy into cost leadership strategy and product differentiation strategy, and organizational culture into hierarchical/rational culture and consensual/development culture. Based on 122 questionnaires collected through KOSPI listed manufacturing companies, the results of the empirical analysis on the effect of suitability between competitive strategy and organizational culture on performance by balanced scorecard perspective are summarized as follows. First, it shows that the cost leadership strategy and the hierarchical/rational culture are more fit. Specifically, The high suitability between the cost leadership strategy and the hierarchical/rational culture has a positive effect on the performance of the balanced scorecard perspective(excluding performance by learning and growth perspective). Second, The high suitability between the product differentiation strategy and the consensual/development culture has a positive effect on the performance of the balanced scorecard perspective. The results of this study suggest that it is important to form a corporate culture that can lead to changes in the beliefs and behaviors of organizational members in accordance with the competitive strategy in order to successfully implement the strategies established by the company.

This study is a descriptive correlation study to identify the factors affecting life satisfaction for shift service workers and is a secondary data analysis study using the raw data from the Fifth Korean Work Environment Survey. Five hundred and seventy-seven study subjects were selected from 20-year-old wage workers who had more than one year of work experience at the time of the survey and had worked more than 40 hours a week. The analysis used SPSS 23.0 WIN, including a t-test, one-way ANOVA by Scheffe test, Pearson's correlation oefficients, and Hierarchical multiple regression analysis. Regarding the general characteristics of the subjects, there was a difference in life satisfaction according to age, educational level, industrial type, and subjective health status. The higher the work-life balance and work satisfaction of the shift service worker, the higher the life satisfaction. In addition, social support had a moderating effect on the relationship between work-life balance and work satisfaction of shift service workers. Active social support, work satisfaction, and work-life balance improvement promotion programs were developed and applied to shift work service workers considering the factors influencing life satisfaction, thereby improving the life satisfaction of work shift service workers.

Falls are a threat to the physical health of the elderly as well as to their overall quality of life. The purpose of this study was to identify which type of exercise is effective for improving the balance of the elderly, and to obtain the basic data for developing the falls prevention exercise intervention program for the elderly. We compared to the differential effects between rhythmic step exercise and core muscle strengthening exercise in terms of functional balance test and self-reported balance test. Women older than 65 years and under 80 years of age were assigned to one of the step exercise group(21), core muscle exercise group(20), and control group(21), and for 8 weeks, twice per week, 20-30 minutes of exercise were treated. All participants performed one foot static balance test with open and closed eyes. And they responded to self-reported balance test, such as Fall Efficacy Scale(FES) and Activities-specific Balance Confidence(ABC) Scale. The results of statistical analysis are summarized as follows. First, rhythmic stepping exercise was more effective in improving functional balance than core muscle strengthening exercise. In particular, the effect of step exercise was obvious in the one-foot static balance test with open eyes. Second, the self-reported balance test showed better step exercise than core muscle exercise. Specifically, rhythmic step exercise was more effective in enhancing fall efficacy than core muscle exercise. In conclusion, the rhythmic step exercise was more effective in improving the balance ability of the elderly than the core muscle exercise. The rhythmic step exercise is more related to the lower extremity muscles, and especially since the rhythmic step exercise is performed in various ground changes, it seems to have a high similarity to the fall occurrence situation. For future research, we recommended the development of task-oriented ankle proprioceptive exercise intervention program and exercise equipment based on the specific motion situation in which the fall accident occurs in the elderly.
