Cyberspace, based on the dramatic development of information and communications technology, has brought enormous benefits to mankind. However, concerns over cyber terrorism and cyber attack are becoming serious. It is time to expand the global dialogue on international security issues in cyberspace. It is imperative to have a common understanding that cyberspace, the infrastructure for prosperity, should not be utilized as a space to create conflicts among states, and that all states agree to build confidence and peace in cyberspace. For this purpose, there are 3 tracks of international cooperations: 1)international cooperation such as UN and Conference on Cyberspace, 2)regional cooperations such as ARF and OSCE. 3)bilateral cooperations such US-Russia Cybersecurity Agreement, US-China presidential level dialogue. This paper will analyze the 1st track of international cooperations of UN and Conference on Cyberspace. With this, Korean government can prepare the forthcoming GGE activities and make our own strategy to deal with the global norms of good behaviour in cyberspace.

There have been researches on game continuance intention based on consumer behaviour theory of management science. Such macro access of computer game analysis might be insufficient to draw valuable results due to complex subsystem structure of recent computer games. In this paper, we choose 'Blade and Soul' game that was first published in 2012 and has been within top 20 MMORPG in Korea but known as a 'long time users' only game'among game players recently. Three user groups - long loyalty, concentrated, casual - are classified based on their play history and play time per day of Blade and Soul. The first survey with 222 subjects revealed that the real strength of the game was not the combat - Dungeon, Arena, Battleground competition - but very cohesive game community Blade and Soul has. Thus, we conduct another survey on the game community issues among 148 long time users (over 3 years playing history) and analyze their traits and behaviour patterns.

Project risk assessment is the most important activity performed at the beginning of a project because it can judge the performance of the project in advance. In this study, We were evaluated risk with traditional risk factors such as technology and schedule, etc, and Indirect risks factors such as financial, strategic, and special risks. and then, we analyzed what kind of relationship these risk evaluation factors have on business performance and customer satisfaction. As a result of the research, it was found that the risk evaluation items had a relationship with performance and customer satisfaction. However, It is possible that the performance may differ depending on how risks are managed after risk assessment. Therefore, follow-up studies should be conducted, including information on risk management practices. This study is meaningful that presenting practical risk evaluation items and at the same time identifying the relationship with performance. We plan to further the study in future studies including the evaluation of risk management process.

In this research, one's ability to perform activities of daily living, body pain, and emotional states of elders who live alone and elders who live with others were compared to investigate which factors affect senior's health state. The data was collected from 88 seniors and analyzed for the comparison. Compared to seniors who live with others, elders who live alone had lower activity of daily livings, stronger body pain, and instability in emotional states. These 3 aspects showed a statistical significance of correlation. As a result of further analysis, not only residential types(living alone or living with others), but also life pattern(indoor or outdoor) is affected on the results. It is expected that the results of this research could be used as basic data for physiological index to evaluate senior's health state and care service for seniors who live alone.

The purposes of this study were to investigate pre-service mathematics teachers' perceptions of the role of cooperating teachers and teacher interactions during teaching practicum. Thirty-four pre-service mathematics teachers who finished student teaching participated in the study. The researcher collected data from various sources such as a questionnaire, interviews, and written documents. According to the results of the study, more than 50 percent of the participants showed negative responses to all of the questionnaire items on teaching activities or guidance of cooperating teachers. Cooperating teachers mainly played a role in the stage of reflection of student teacher's teaching practice, and they provided specific feedback and guidance of teaching and learning methods and contents. Cooperating teachers played roles as (mathematics) teacher educators, classroom observers, and co-teachers, but their roles as teacher educators or co-teachers should be more stressed for pre-service mathematics teachers' professional development.

The purpose of this study is to help the elderly women's health improvement by comparing body composition factors and differences in senior fitness levels for health life according to the degree of obesity and physical activity levels in the elderly women. The subjects of the study were 32 elderly women and their consent to the study was obtained. The degree of obesity was classified by measuring body composition and physical activity levels were classified based on the questionnaire survey. Body composition factors and senior fitness levels were compared. Finally, the following conclusions were drawn. 1. The body composition factors according to the classification of the degree of obesity were significantly different in high blood pressure. Senior fitness was significantly different in 30-Second Chair Stand, Arm Curl, 2min Step Test, 8 Foot up and go. High degree of obesity was associated with decreased 30-Second Chair Stand, Arm Curl and 2min Step Test for senior fitness. 2. The body composition factors according to physical activity levels were significantly different in high blood pressure. Senior fitness was significantly different in 30-Second Chair Stand, Arm Curl, Chair Sit and Reach, 2min Step Test, 8 Foot up and go. High physical activity was associated with increased 30-Second Chair Stand, Arm Curl, Chair Sit and Reach, 2min Step Test, 8 Foot up and go for senior fitness.

This study was done to investigate the effect of stress on appetite and eating habits, and other health-related behaviors. The subjects of this study consisted of 188 males and 224 females in Ulsan area. The results were as follows: When stressed, 56% (n = 231) of the subjects experienced a change in appetite and of these, 32% (n = 132) experienced an increased appetite. Stress-induced eating may be one factor contributing to the development of obesity. There was a gender-specific response to stress in which women are more likely to use food to deal with stress, whereas men are more likely to use alcohol consumption or smoking. It was found that types of stressors were individual (52.9%), social (50.7%), family relations (34.5%), work demands (34.2%) and physical environment (32.3%). Stress-induced symptoms of the subjects were anxiety (38.3%), headache (36.7%) and neck or shoulder aches (36.2%), and females experienced those symptoms more than males. Those older than 50 years had a higher eating habit score and lower stress score compared with younger subjects. There were significant differences between sex, age, occupation, family type, BMI, exercise, sleeping hours and eating habits or stress level. This study may be helpful in advancing findings in this area to better provide health professionals with appropriate counseling tools to improve the health of all individuals.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of either aerobic exercise or polyphenols supplementation on mRNA expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress in skeletal muscle of high fat diet-induced obese mice. In the study, mice were divided into five groups: (1) NC (normal diet for 16 weeks as a control, n=10), (2) HC (high fat diet for 16 weeks as a control, n=10), (3) H-Re (high fat diet with resveratrol 25 mg/kg supplementation for 16 weeks, n=10), (4) H-Ch (high fat diet with chrysin 50 mg/kg supplementation for 16 weeks, n=10), and (5) HE (high fat diet with aerobic exercise for 16 weeks, n=10). Aerobic exercise was performed on a treadmill for 40~60 min/day at 10~14 m/min, 0% grade, four days/week for 16 weeks. Endoplasmic reticulum stress related genes were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction. ATF6, PERK, $IRE1{\alpha}$, and BIP/GRP78 mRNA were significantly decreased in HE compared with those in HC (p<0.05). Also, ATF6, $IRE1{\alpha}$, and BIP/GRP78 mRNA were significantly decreased in H-Re compared with those in HC (p<0.05). ATF6 mRNA was significantly decreased in H-Ch compared with that in HC (p<0.05). These findings suggest that aerobic exercise, resveratrol, and chrysin supplementation changed ER stress markers. However, aerobic exercise was most effective on ameliorating the high fat diet induced ER stress markers. Thus, it seems that aerobic exercise might have a more positive effect on skeletal muscle endoplasmic reticulum stress compared with polyphenol supplementation in high fat diet-induced obese mice.
