The balance of power in conventional forces between the two Koreas works in favor of the South Korea in the Korea peninsula. But, the balancing mechanism between the two Koreas in asymmetric forces like nuclear and missile forces works absolutely in favor of the North Korea. That's why it should be timely for the ROK military to review existing strategy and revise a new counter strategy against the threat posed by the North Korea's nuclear and missile forces. The ROK military is now developing 4D, KAMD, KILL Chain strategies as means to cope with the North Korea's nuclear and missile threats. Considering efforts and resources invested now, the strategies are expected to be in place in next five or more years. However, approaches to those strategies seem to be rather fragmentary and conceptual than comprehensive and pragmatic. The types of strategies against the North Korea's military threats need to be a deterrence in peace time and a fighting and winning in war time in the Korean theater. But, the most important element in the deterrence strategy is the credibility. This study concludes with an new strategic concept titled "ADAD(Assured Defense, Assured Destruction)" as an alternative to existing strategies to deal with the North Korea's nuclear and missile threats.

This article examines the location strategies of coffee franchises in Gyeonggi province. Due to its large population, broad area, and diverse industrial structure, Gyeonggi province is an ideal dataset for empirical testing of the location strategies. We collect the addresses of five major coffee franchises stores, convert them into geographic coordinates using Google Maps Geocoding API, and compute Haversine distances both between stores of the same franchise and between stores of different franchises. This novel approach leads to three discoveries. First, coffee-consuming age population is positively related to the number of stores and more strongly for commercial areas with a large floating population. Second, one third of Starbucks stores have another Starbucks store within a radius of 300m, which empirically confirms the 'Focused Destroy Strategy' of Starbucks that has multiple stores in central business districts. Third, for 80% of Starbucks stores, we can find Ediya stores within 500m, which supports Ediya's 'Next-to-Starbucks Strategy'. Our research methods can be efficiently applied to the analyses of other retail businesses such as convenience stores, fast food restaurants, and mobile phone shops.

In this study, the effects of grouping by extraversion and introversion in paired think-aloud problem solving using a four-stage problem-solving strategy emphasizing planning and checking stages were investigated. Prior to the instructions, the students' extraversion/introversion in three high school classes (N=87) were examined, and those classes were randomly assigned to the homogeneous, the heterogeneous, and the control groups. The test scores of the two treatment groups were significantly higher than those of the control group in the problem-solving ability. However, there were no significant differences in learning difficulty and self-efficacy. Although there were no significant differences between the scores of two treatment groups in the subcategories of the perception of treatment, the test scores of extroverts were significantly higher than those of introverts in the perception of performing listener's role, the preference to problem solving strategy, and the preference to paired think-aloud problem solving.

The purpose of this study is to develop a learning coaching model suitable for the mathematics subject by reflecting the characteristics of the mathematics subject and the mathematics teaching/learning process in the CARE learning coaching model that supports students' self-directed learning. The mathematics learning coaching model developed in this study is a 'step' and 'element' to apply coaching, and a 'strategy' for carrying out it. Mathematics learning coaching model evaluated rapport, trust, state management, and math pre-test as elements of 'creating a comfortable atmosphere', and problem recognition, hypercognition, restructuring, initiative, and math learning ability as elements of 'improving perception'. Self-efficacy, learning readiness, confirmation (feedback) as elements of the 'reawakening of learning immersion' stage, voluntary motivation and success experiences as elements of the 'empowerment' stage, and various math learning strategies to perform each element presented. The math learning coaching model can be used to help math teachers motivate students to learn and help students solve their own problems.

This study investigated the effects of the prescribed instructional strategy for reducing students' connecting errors in learning chemistry concepts with multiple external representations by students' field independence-dependence. Seventh graders (N=126) at a coed middle school were assigned to control and treatment groups. The students learned "Boyle's Law" and "Charles's Law" for two class periods. Results revealed that the students in the treatment group scored significantly higher than those in the control group in a conception test. The scores of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group in a motivational learning test, especially in 'attention' of the test. However, there was no significant interaction between the instruction and students' field independence-dependence in the two tests. Most students in the treatment group perceived the instruction positively in cognitive and motivational aspects.

We investigated the effects of hypothetical deductive experiment on students' views about the nature of science (NOS). Participants were 212 eighth graders from a middle school and they were assigned to a control group and an experimental group. Students of the control group did guided experiment in small group and students of the experimental group did hypothetical deductive experiment in small group. The results revealed that both students of the control group and the experimental group possessed similar views about NOS in a pretest. But the experimental group exhibited more sophisticated views about the theory of dependance of observation, scientific reasoning and hypothesis in the posttest. Students who used mainly surface learning strategy within the experimental group exhibited more sophisticated views about hypothesis in the posttest. On the other hand, students who used mainly deep learning strategy within the experimental group exhibited more sophisticated views about the theory of dependance of observation, scientific reasoning and hypothesis in the posttest.

The objective of the present case study is to analysis how effectively Hilti, which is a former family firm owned and managed by a family in Liechtenstein as a tiny european country, a land sandwiched between Switzerland and Austria, has made a global market success. Liechtenstein has $160km^2$ land and about 36,000 residents. Despite its small size of country, however, Hilti Corporation doesn't view its location as a liability in its business strategy. Hilti is a global leading provider of professional power tools in building, mining, civil engineering etc. Also, Hilti is a firm with a clear vision to become the leading industry partner for construction professionals and building installations through customer focus, high quality equipment, and tools and systems specially designed for specific jobs. This study considered Hilti as a good case, which verifies that born-conditions, endogenous factors according to Michael Porters diamond model does not decisive role more for international competitiveness of firms. Lessons from Hilti are that in order to obtain and sustain the global competitiveness of small and medium-sized firms in Korean manufacturing sector under high production cost, they have to do actively innovative. Also they can give to customers newer and higher customer-values than competitors in abroad give. The case summarizes that the strategy of Hilti for the global market success is comprised of several factors: Technological and organizational innovation, and a clear customer-value oriented business strategy and its implementation. Innovation and its integration into marketing for the customers value creation is central to Hilti's Success. The present case study is expected to provide insights and implication for many firms in Korea that are seeking to secure global presence and market success.

North Korea(NK) has designated the special economic zones(SEZs) since the first one in Rason. But, why have the SEZs in NK still not been developed successfully? This study comparatively evaluated the SEZs in China, Vietnam and NK, with respect to 'context/purpose', 'development/management system', and 'location/infrastructure.' NK's strategies for the SEZs were different from those of China and Vietnam in terms of historical context and development purpose. China and Vietnam chose the market opening policy aiming to reform their national economy, while NK tried the opening policy without the economic reform. This difference made NK's decentralization and location strategies marginal. In spite of the positive land system and tax benefit of NK, the strategies couldn't make a successful result. The implications of this comparative study are as follows. Firstly, NK needs to establish a strategy for the SEZs in accord with the comprehensive and long-term plan for economic development and 'trustworthy and substantial market-systems' being compatible with outside world. For that, NK has to secure the regime stability in political and diplomatic dimensions. Secondly, NK has to carry out policies of decentralization and location of the SEZs more positively. Thirdly, in order to solve the problem related to lack of infrastructure capital, NK needs to utilize a BOT scheme.

In this paper, the task assignment strategy considering communication delay and the priority of distributed tasks is proposed for the real-time network system in order to maximize the utilization of the system. For the task assignment strategy, the relationship among priority of tasks in network nodes, the calculation time of each task, and the end-to-end response time including the network delay is formulated firstly. Then, the task assignment strategy using the genetic algorithm is proposed to optimize the utilization of the system considering the LCM(Least Common Multiple) period. The effectiveness of proposed strategy is proven by the simulation for estimating the performance such as the utilization and the response time of the system in case of changing the number of tasks and the number of network nodes.
