This study analyzes whether cooperating with various types of partners contributes to a company's innovation performance as well as the moderating effect of absorptive capacity and appropriability that may affect learning in such relationship. The hypothesis is that cooperating with diverse partners will have a positive effect on the innovation performance since it acquires their knowledge and information. In addition, an analysis is conducted on the moderating effect of absorptive capacity and appropriability on the relationship between alliance portfolio consisting various partners and innovation since absorptive capacity that encourages learning is likely to positively moderate the relationship between partner diversity and innovation while appropriability, the capacity to protect the proprietary technology, is likely to undermine learning from partners. The result of the empirical analysis on Korea's key industries, machinery and automobile, using the 2010 Korea Innovation Survey(KIS) data on manufacturing shows that cooperating with various types of technology partners has a positive effect on innovation performance and moderating effect on appropriability.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there was a gender difference in motivating university students to decrease their sodium intake and to identify effective motivating factors. Within the protection motivation theory (PMT) framework, a survey questionnaire was developed to measure participants' perceptions on the severity of and the vulnerability to risk of serious diseases due to the high sodium intake, as well as the effectiveness (response efficacy) and the ability to perform preventive measures (self-efficacy). Behavioral intentions on five specific practices (checking nutrition label, consuming more fruits and vegetables, consuming less soups, avoiding spicy and pungent food, purchasing less instant or restaurant foods) related to decreasing sodium intake were also included. A total of 294 usable response data were collected from university students (92 male, 202 female) in Busan and Gyeongnam in June 2015 and analyzed using IBM SPSS 22. Severity was the highest (4.04) PMT factor followed by response efficacy (3.72), self-efficacy (3.42), and vulnerability (3.26). Compared to male students, female students thought that the threat was more severe (t=6.035, p<0.001) and reducing sodium intake would be effective to prevent serious illnesses (t=4.724, p<0.001), but their vulnerability and self-efficacy perceptions were not different from male students. Among the five items measuring behavioral intention, female students were more likely to increase fruits and vegetables consumption (t=3.811, p<0.001), while male students were more likely to avoid spicy and pungent foods (t=2.336, p=0.020). Based on findings of this study, the recommended strategy to effectively motivate university students to lower their sodium consumption level is the development of campaign focused on increased vulnerability perception, response efficacy, and ease of practicing preventive measures instead of emphasizing the severity of the consequences.

Green chemistry is a new scientific field which focuses on the design, manufacture, and use of chemical processes that could prevent pollution and at the same time improve yield efficiency. The few who have written on the emergence of green chemistry have not shed light on the political and economic motivations of green chemistry. As a new study of the emergence of green chemistry, this paper focuses on the relationship among the triple helix of academia, industry, and government which has been critical in the emergence of green chemistry. This paper argues that academia, industry and government created a common ground during the emergence of green chemistry under the common goal of sustainable development since its creation in 1991. Green chemists produced the knowledge to improve the synthetic efficiency to prevent pollution, and the chemical industry used green chemistry research to increase the economic profitability of production system. This specific form of alliance was supported and maintained amid a changing national environmental policy toward pollution prevention and a self-regulatory framework.

Stream data need a efficient data management with high reliability and real time processing. The characteristics of these data are a large volume, a short report interval and asynchronous report time. The typical queries of these systems consist of the current query to search the latest signal value, the snapshot query to search the signal value of a past time, the historical query to search the signal value of a past time to current. This paper proposes the efficient method to manage the above signals by using a file structured database in QNX operating systems. The query model to accommodate various query for stream data is proposed. The proposed methods are applied to reactive protection system to verify their usefulness. The COM(Cabinet Operator Module) based on the QNX employs file database that adopts a delta version and a buffering method for the resource limit of a small storage and a low computing power.

Power Quality Compensator(PQC) has been installed to protect the sensitive loads against the voltage disturbances, such as voltage sag and interruption. In general, static switch is used for the purpose of link between utility and PQC. So transfer operation of the static switch play a important part in the PQC. Many studies on the structure and control of PQC have been progressed in active, but these researches have been rarely mentioned about any voltage-disturbances-detection method to start the PQC operation. In this paper, a new voltage-disturbances-detection algorithm for computer application loads using the CBEMA/ITIC curve is proposed for transfer operation of the static switch. The proposed detection algorithm is implemented to get fast detecting time through the comparison of instantaneous 3-phase voltage values transferred to DC values in the synchronous reference frame with the operating reference values. To get the robust characteristics against the noise, a first order digital filter is designed. The magnitude falling and phase delay caused by the filter are compensated through the error normalizing and numerical analysis using transfer function, respectively. Finally, the validity of the proposed algorithm is proved by ACSL simulation and experimental results.

설악산국립공원은 1965년에 천연보호구역, 1970년에 국립공원 제 5호, 1982년 유네스코에 의해 생물권보존지역으로 지정된 지역이다. 우리 나라 국립공원에서는 물론 다른 자연보존지역에서도 찾아볼 수 없는 중요성이 강조된 지역이나 연간 400만명의 이용객이 집중되기도 하는 지역이다. 우리 나라 국립공원은 본래 관광개발을 위해 지정된 동기를 갖고 있어 자연생태계 및 자연경관도 중요하지만 현실적으로는 합리적인 이용도 중요하다. 그러나 지금까지 국립공원은 자연보존에 대한 관리는 도외시 한 채 이용객 집중에 의해 발생되는 도로, 시설물, 건축물, 각종 오염에 대한 대책마련도 제대로 하지 못하여 국립공원하면 국민은 '등산이나 하고 값싼 음식점과 여인숙 수준의 숙박시설이 있는 관광지'정도로 인식하고 있다. 지난 30년간 압축고도성장을 해 온 우리 나라는 국토의 자연환경이 수없이 훼손되고 또한 옥외 레크레이션활동의 증가로 환경오염이 계속 증가되었다. 설악산국립공원도 예외는 아니어서 저앗ㅇ부와 등산로 주변생태계, 계곡생태계 등이 오염되어 식물, 포유동물, 물고기, 곤충 등에 영향이 나타나고 있지만 대피소, 휴게소, 숙박시설을 중심으로 한 오염행위는 계속 늘어만 가고 있다. 이제 설악산국립공원은 거의 위기상황에 도달된 느낌이다. 이런 시기에 환경생태학회 국립공원분과위원회 회원들은 `96년 외설악 지역, `97년 내설악지역을 2년 동안 각 분야에 걸쳐 조사를 수행하였다. 지난 12년간 외부의 지원도 없이 연구비를 자체 조달하여 힘들게 국립공원 연구를 진행하여 온 일환으로 설악산국립공원 조사를 2년 동안 수행한 것이다. 이번 조사는 `96년 가을 북한공비침투로 많은 지역에 대한 출입이 통제되어 외설악연구의 일부가 누락되었음을 첨언한다. 본 글에서는 2년 동안 본 회원들이 조사한 내용에 의해 설악산 국립공원의 현황을 분석하고 관리개선 방향을 제시하였다.

In the knowledge-information society, many domestic companies put lots of investment in technical development to possess core technologies and intellectual property. However, in the results of passive investment in security to protect their technologies compared to the active investment in technical development, the technology leaks from many companies and research institutes are rapidly increasing. Such increase of technology leaks not only causes damage to companies, but also has harmful effects on national economy directly and indirectly. Even though it has been perceived that a lot of industrial technology leak crimes are committed by former/current workers of small and medium-sized businesses, it is hard to find researches that mainly compare and analyze them. Therefore, this study aimed to understand the actual status of industrial technology leaks by analyzing cases of industrial technology leaks from 2014 to 2016 based on the type of victimized companies, corporate internal leakers' positions, matter of complicity, tools used for technology leaks, and motivation for technology leaks. Through the analysis in each type, the patterns and characteristics of industrial technology leaks were researched, and also the exploratory research on industrial security for the prevention of industrial technology leaks was conducted.

Asynchronous phenomenon occurs on the synchronous generators under power system when a generator's amplitude of electromagnetic force, phase angle, frequency and waveform etc become different from those of other synchronous generators which can follow instantly varying speed of turbine. Because the amplitude of electromagnetic force, phase frequency and waveform differ from those of other generators with which are to be put into parallel operation due to the change of excitation condition for load sharing and the sharing load change, if reactive current in the internal circuit circulates among generators, the efficiency varies and the stator winding of generators are overheated by resistance loss. Where calculation method of protection settings and Logic for Protection of Generator Asynchronization will be recommended, A distance relay scheme is commonly used for backup protection. This scheme, called a step distance protection, is comprised of 3 steps for graded zones having different operating time. As for the conventional step distance protection scheme, Zone 2 can exceed the ordinary coverage excessively in case of a transformer protection relay especially. In this case, there can be overlapped protection area from a backup protection relay and, therefore, malfunctions can occur when any fault occurs in the overlapped protection area. Distance relays and overcurrent relays are used for backup protection generally, and both relays have normally this problem, the maloperation, caused by a fault in the overlapped protection area. Corresponding to an IEEE standard, this problem can be solved with the modification of the operating time. On the other hand, in Korea, zones are modified to cope with this problem in some specific conditions. These two methods may not be obvious to handle this problem correctly because these methods, modifying the common rules, can cause another coordination problem. To overcome asynchronizing protection this paper describes an improved backup protection coordination scheme using a new Logic that will be suggested.

We report the performance of an open-frame type low-voltage high-current DC-DC converter module developed using an active clamp forward converter circuit and single ended rectifier. The converter module is designed with the specifications of an 3.3V output voltage, 30A output current, 100W output power and 36-75V input voltage. The synchronous rectifier is used to reduce the conduction loss at high current level and constant current control using precision PCB resistance is adapted to enhance the over current protection function in the system configuration. A prototype converter module is successfully implemented within 8mm height and quarter brick size (58x37mm) and recorded an $95W/in^3$ power density, 90.6$\%$ efficiency and 0.07$\%$ voltage regulation for the entire Input voltage range, thereby demonstrating its application potentials to future telecommunication electronics.
