Lately, Internet-based vessels have begun to appear at sea with the development of ICT. Thereby crews have gained easy Internet access through increased smartphone portability. However, the side effects of smartphone use while on watch, have not been studied seriously despite being a reality. In this study, simulation experiments were carried out using a Ship Handling Simulator in order to distinguish the risks of using a smartphone while on watch. Proximity Evaluation, Control Evaluation, Subjective Evaluation and Situation Awareness to the dangerous situation were used to quantify risk during simulation, and analysis results were compared with cases when using and not using a smartphone. It was found that the degree of risk increased between 1.3 to 3 times given smartphone use. Consequently, this paper represents foundation for the restriction of smartphone use and proposes smartphone usage guideline for ship navigation.

The purpose of this study was to inquire into the structural relations between teacher-student interactions, outcome expectancy, academic engagement which are perceived in a physical education class. To this end, this study selected a total of 442 copies of questionnaires as final valid samples using the convenience sampling method targeting middle school students at 4 schools in metropolitan area. For data processing, this study confirmed the goodness of fit test of the whole model using SPSS 20.0 and AMOS 20.0, and then did hypothesis testing; the study results are as follows: First, proximity, one of subfactor of teacher-student interactions, had significant effects on outcome expectancy and academic engagement whereas influence had no significant effects on it. Second, students' outcome expectancy had significant impacts on their academic engagement. Third, outcome expectancy had mediating effects on relations between teacher-student interactions (proximity) and academic engagement.

After starting the war on terrorism, the U.S. military began to utilize the strength of its women's workforce by operating a cultural support team (CST) and a women's close combat team (FET) that obtained the information needed for civil operations with emphasis on civil factors. In addition, in order to subdue resistance forces that carry out surprise attacks by covering the shielded terrain of the rugged land or among residents, female personnel with excellent understanding, calmness, and detail were operated as unmanned aircraft operators (RPA). Since the situations that the U.S. has already experienced are likely to be reproduced on the Korean Peninsula, the South Korean military will be able to overcome uncertainties in the future battlefield environment by utilizing the U.S. female workforce.

한류에 대한 기존 언론보도 및 연구 경향은 다음과 같이 요약된다. 중국 일본 및 서구에서의 한류 현상에 대한 편중된 관심과 한류 분석틀로서 문화근접성 이론에 대한 지나친 의존이다. 이러한 상황은 한류 현상에 대한 객관적인 인식과 경험적인 분석을 방해하고 있다. 이러한 문제의식에 기초한 본 연구는 동남아시아, 특히 싱가포르의 한류 현상에 대한 분석을 통해 보다 객관적이고 다각화된 한류 연구를 모색한다. 지리적으로 동남아시아에 위치하고 있지만 문화적으로 동북아시아적 요소를 포괄하고 있는 싱가포르는 아시아 내 초국적 대중문화 교통을 연구하는 데 있어 전략적으로 중요한 공간이다. 본 논문은 싱가포르의 한국 대중문화 수용자들에 대한 포커스그룹 인터뷰, 문헌조사와 참여관찰을 통해 한류 형성의 이유 및 한류 팬덤이라는 문화적 실천이 갖는 의미를 탐구한다. 수용자에 대한 분석은 그가 배치된 싱가포르 미디어 구조에 대한 역사적, 기술적, 정치경제적 맥락화를 통해 보다 체계화된다. 본 연구를 통해 동남아시아에서 발견되고 있는 "외래문화 수용의 진부화"(banalization of foreign cultural reception)라는 상황이 동남아시아 내 한류 전개에 중요한 영향을 끼쳤으며, 동남아시아 미디어산업의 저개발 상황이 한국 대중문화 수용에 우호적 조건으로 작용했음을 확인할 수 있었다. 마지막으로, 연구자는 동아시아 내 문화교통의 연속성 (continuum of cultural traffic within East Asia) 안에 한류 연구를 배치할 것을 제시한다.

[ $\underline{Purpose}$ ]: This study was to design and fabricate a phantom for prostate cancer brachytherapy to validate a developed program applying a 3-film technique, and to compare it with the conventional 2-film technique for determining the location of an implanted seed. $\underline{Materials\;and\;Methods}$: The images were obtained from overlapped seeds by randomly placing a maximum of 63 seeds in the anterior-posterior (AP) position and at $-30^{\circ} to $30^{\circ} at $15^{\circ} intervals. Images obtained by use of the phantom were applied to the image processing procedure, and were then processed into the development program for seed localization. In this study, cases were set where one seed overlapped, where two seeds overlapped and where none of the three views resolved all seeds. The distance between the centers of each seed to the reference seed was calculated in a prescribed region. This distance determined the location of each seed in a given band. The location of the overlapped seeds was compared with that of the 2-film technique. $\underline{Results}$: With this program, the detection rate was 92.2% (at ${\pm}15^{\circ}), 94.1% (at ${\pm}30^{\circ}) and 70.6% (compared to the use of the 2-film technique). The overlaps were caused by one or more than two seeds that overlapped; the developed program can identify the location of each seed perfectly. However, for the third case the program was not able to resolve the overlap of the seeds. $\underline{Conclusion}$: This program can be used to improve treatment outcome for the brachytherapy of prostate cancer by reducing the number of errors in the process of reconstructing the locations of perfectly overlapped seeds.

From a point of view of suggesting the method to avoid ship's collision, the speed of ships has to be considered sufficiently according to encounter angle of ships. But the new safe-guard ring of ship's collision avoidance support model in the close quarters is established assuming that the ratio of own ship' speed to a target ship's speed is less than about 1.7. Therefore in this paper, as doing a study concerned with the establishment of safe-guard ring reflected the encounter angle and the speed of ships, we will propose the new model of ship collision avoidance for safe maneuver of ship's collision avoidance.

In this paper, we have studied the ship collision avoidance support on the basis of 'Ship Collision Avoidance Model considered a Speed' for the purpose of the decrease of the human error, caused ship collisions, at sea and the effective support of avoiding ship collisions. The program has been reflected the speed of a target ship, had not been considered in a preceding study. Besides, the program will effectively support a maneuver for a collision avoidance, through the display of a feasible area and the method of a collision avoidance using the own ship's turning characteristic about the action of target ship's course and velocity.

Bit allocation or quantizer assigning problem is a basic and essential issue in lossy picture coding. It could be represented as minimizing overall distortion with the given constraint that total bits should not exceed allowed bit-budget. Optimal solution can be found by Lagrangian method. However this method needs much computational time and memory. This paper presents an approximation method that uses the activity measure. The comparison between the existing activity measuring techniques are made, and mapping function from activity value to the quantizer is proposed. Under MPEG-1 Intra coding situation, simulations show almost identical results compared to the optimal ones obtained by Lagrangian method with reduced computational time.

From a point of view of suggesting the method to avoid ship's collision, the speed of ships has to be considered sufficiently according to encounter angle of ships. But with respect to the establishment of Safe-Guard Ring of Ship Collision Avoidance Support Model in Close Quarters Situation that had been newly studied to avoid ship's collision, the ratio of own ship' speed to a target ship's speed was limited to about less than 1.7. Therefore in this paper, as doing a study concerned with the establishment of Safe-Guard Ring reflected the encounter angle and the speed of ships, we will propose the new model of ship collision avoidance for safe maneuver of ship's collision avoidance.

최근 지속가능한 개발을 위한 연구와 수자원 취약성에 대한 논의가 활발히 이루어지는 가운데, 북한의 수자원에 대한 관심 또한 증가하여 다방면으로 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구는 북한 자료의 확보가 가능한 World Bank 자료를 바탕으로 Pressure-State-Response 구조에 따라 선정된 14개의 지표를 이용하여 168개 국가를 대상으로 수자원 취약성 분석을 수행하였다. 의사결정을 위한 가중치 결정은 객관적 가중치 산정방법인 Shannon의 entropy 기법을 이용하였으며, 정량적 평가를 위하여 TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) 기법을 적용하여 국가 별 수자원 취약성을 지수화하고 취약성 순위를 도출하였다. 각 지표별 Positive Ideal Solution과 Negative Ideal Solution의 거리를 산정한 후 상대근접도계수를 산정하였으며, 상대근접도계수가 작은 국가일수록 수자원이 취약한 국가가 된다. 연구결과 북한은 168개 국가 중 17위, 우리나라는 67위로 나타났으며, 대체적으로 남 북한의 수자원 취약성이 취약한 가운데 북한이 더 취약한 것으로 나타났다. 우리나라와 연관이 깊은 주요 국가와 비교 시, 북한, 중국, 미국, 일본, 우리나라 순으로 취약성의 정도가 심각했다. 또한, 압력, 상태, 반응의 요소별로 수자원 취약성을 분석한 결과 북한이 반응요소 측면에서 타 국가에 비해 불안정하였으며, 우리나라의 경우 상태요소 측면에서 취약함을 보였다. 따라서 본 연구는 국가 간 우리나라와 북한의 상황을 파악할 수 있게 해주며, 수자원 취약성 극복을 위한 수자원 계획 및 대책을 제시할 수 있는 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.
