Recently, a research of the urban regeneration has been performed very actively. This is one of the efforts to resolve various social and economic problems coming from the existing deteriorated building and facilities by new urban development or redevelopment. However, an urban regeneration has a characteristic to be unable to ensure the project performance due to the exposed numerous risks coming from the various and complex stake-holders, and its mega sizes. This paper proposes the method of risk performance index in order to improve an efficiency of performance measurement expanding to the risk view point from the existing integrated cost/schedule performance measurement. A risk performance index is compatible with the existing EVMS, and can make the performance measurement in 3 dimensions of the integrated cost/schedule/risk with 18 sub-indexes and variables.

In this study, two residential complexes, both built in the New City area after 2006 and both composed of over 500 households, were selected to estimate an efficient accessibility and connectivity index using accessibility and connectivity theories and methods from previous studies. With architectural blueprints, the nodes and edges of both residential complexes were drawn out and the accessibility matrixes were derived using these nodes and edges. As a result, the connectivity indices of both residential complexes were lower than 1, the accessibility index of Dong-tan was 86.922 being smaller than the accessibility index of Ilsan, 96.199, and the efficiency index of both residential complexes were similar being 0.26. With these indices it is expected to geometrically estimate the residential complexes and predict the pedestrian passing conveniences.

This study aims to develop Drowning Management Index (DMI) to evaluate the effectiveness of drowning management in a region. In order to develop practical index to evaluate drowning management, downing contributors are examined. Drowning exposure rate is collected by survey. DMI is generated from South Korea and Australia for comparison. South Korea and Australia indicate similar number of drowning per 100 thousand people (1.7 South Korea, 1.4 Australia) but in DMI it turned out 9 times difference between two countries (15.5 South Korea, 1.67 Australia).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of dietary fiber content of rice on the postprandial serum glucose and insulin responses in normal subject. Two rice varieties, Ilpum and Suwon 464 which are different in dietary fiber content, were cooked in pressure cooker and used for the test. The rice with a higher dietary fiber content gave a significantly lower glucose level (p<0.01) and insulin level (p<0.05) than did the normal rice variety. After a meal, the 60-min glucose levels of Suwon 464 and Ilpum were 90.3${\pm}$4.8mg/dl and 111.6${\pm}$2.7mg/dl, respectively. The glycemic index (GI) of Suwon 464 shows 64.5%, which was apparently lower than that of Ilpum. These results indicate that Suwon 464 high in dietary fiber can be useful in low-GI diets.

This paper investigates circularity of fly ashes using the digital image processing. Fly ashes directly collect from electrostatic precipitator when the load of conditions of boiler are changed at a coal-fired power plant. Circularity measurement can be accomplished in five steps: ① image acquisition, ② grey image processing, ③ detection the component to measure ④ binary image processing ⑤ feature measurement. The mean circularity of fly ashes is in the range of 0.78 to 0.83. fly ashes collected from the same hopper has similar circularity regardless of the load of boiler and circularity increases as going from the 1st hopper to 3rd one, namely as particle size become finer.

This research investigated the applicapability of an improved algorithm to calculate the topographic index, ln($\alpha$/tan B), for the topography of Korea employing channel initiation threshold area(CIT) and an exponent for the gradient(H). hanjaechun subwatershed in Cheongdochun and Dongok subwatershed in Wichun test watershed were selected as study areas. The digital elevation models(DEM) of study areas have been made with the resolution from 10m to 100m. Application of CIT to the traditional algorithm provide reasonable computation method in considering channel pixel impact. Introduction of the gradient exponent(H) made it possible to obtain better flow convergence effect in concave topography comparing with the traditional multiple flow direction algorithm. The improved algorithm shows the capability to relax the overestimation problem of rising limb of hydrograph through reducing overestimated high value of topographic index.

The role of small and medium enterprises as an economic growth factor has been accentuated; consequently, the need to develop a business forecast model and indexes that accurately examine business situation of small and medium enterprises has increased. Most current business model and indexes concerning small and medium enterprises, released by public and private institutions, are based on Business Survey Index (BSI) and depend on subjective (business model and) indexes; therefore, the business model and indexes lack a capacity to grasp an accurate business situation of these enterprises. The business forecast model and indexes suggested in the study have been newly developed with Principal Component Analysis(PCA) and weight method to accurately measure a business situation based on reference dates addressed by the National Statistical Office(NSO). Empirical studies will be presented to prove that the newly proposed business model and indexes have their basis in statistical theory and their trend that resembles the existing Composite Index.

Five commercially valuable Korean Veneroid, Protothaca jedoensis, Ruditapes philippinarum, Saxidomus purpuratus, Cyclina sinensis and Meretrix lusoria were recognized by comparing internal and external morphological characters. As length of the primary tooth was directly grown proportional to shell size but all other characters were not measured according to size of shell. Hence, the morphological characters of these Veneroids may be estimated from the size of the unique primary tooth and it might be enough to be a good criterion for identification of species among Veneriods. Numerical index of hinge plate length of these species was assessed systematically, irrespective of measuring the length, height and width of the shell. The highest internal and external morphological similarity was observed between P. jedoensis and R. philippinarum and the lowest similarity was observed between P. jedoensis and M. lusoria. These similarities may be affected by multiple environmental factors as well as genetic characters. For artificial seed production of P. jedoensis, R. philppinarum, a closest relative among the five species, must be focussed.

The genetic relationships of Korean native Orostachys species collected from various regions were analysed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) method. Eighteen Orostachys species analysed with UPGMA were clustered into three groups A, B, and C. However, four species were not clustered into any group. O. iwarenge species in group A (No. 18-No. 22) showed low similarity with 66.3-73.9% according to the cluster analysis. O. malacophyllus species in group B (No. 12-No. 17) showed low similarity with 66.7-83.7% according to the cluster analysis. The similarity coefficient value of O. japonicus (No. 3-No. 8) except Anmyeondo collected variety (No. 9) showed higher level with 84.2-92.3% than O. iwarenge or O. malacophyllus. Therefore, O. japonicus is thought to be genetically stable, and have less regional variation.

본 연구에서는 실내 광조건에서 자생 장미과 상록 활엽 목본 2종의 생육반응을 조사하였다. 식물재료는 다정큼나무[Rhaphiolepis indica var. umbellata (Thunb.) Ohashi]와 비파나무[Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl.]의 3년생 실생묘를 사용하였다. 실내 광량은 10, 50, 100 및 200 PPFD (${\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$)로 설정되었으며, 광주기(12/12 h), 온도($25{\pm}1^{\circ}C$), 습도($55{\pm}3%$) 및 관수(1회/3일) 주기는 일정하게 유지하였다. 실내에서 8주간 재배한 다음 유리온실에서 동일 기간동안 재배된 대조구와 생육 및 광합성 능력 등을 비교하였다. 연구 결과, 다정큼나무의 생육은 200 PPFD에서 대조구와 유사한 수준이었으며, 줄기직경은 광량과 정비례하는 경향이었다. 엽수는 대조구에 비해 고 광량(100, 200 PPFD) 조건에서 유의적으로 높은 결과를 보였다. 처리 별 최대 양자수율(Fv/Fm) 및 광계II 성능지수(Pi_Abs)는 대조구와 유사한 수준이었으며, 광량에 따른 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 비파나무는 재배기간 동안 광량에 관계없이 생육변화가 크지 않았으나, 엽록소함량은 200 PPFD에서 가장 많았다. 한편 10 PPFD에서는 모든 개체의 잎 고사에 따른 관상가치가 하락하였다. Fv/Fm은 200 PPFD에서 대조구와 유사한 수준이었으며, Pi_Abs는 저광량(10, 50 PPFD) 조건에서 유의적으로 높은 수치였다.
