This study sought to observe systematic relationships through taximetrical analyses by morphological characters among the 10 species, on three species in the virilis section (D. virilis, D. tsigana and D. lacertosa) and seven species in the quinaria section (D. angularis, D. brachvnephros, D. curvispina, D. kuntzei, D. nigromaculata, D. takadai and D. unispina) of the subgenus Drosophila. In the cluster and the cladistic analysis among the members of subgenus Drosophila, 10 species was divided into the 1st group of D. virilis, D. tsigana, and D. lacertosa and the 2nd group of D. angularis, D. brachynephros, D. curvispina, D. kuntzei, D. nigromaculata, D. takadai, and D. unispina. In cluster analysis, the 2nd group had three sister groups; one sister group that clustered D. angularis and D. brachynephros then D. unispina was clustered to them, another sister group clustered D, curvispina and D. takadai then D. kuntzei was clustered to them and the other sister group of D. nigromaculata. In the 10 species, D. virilis and D. lacertosa were the first to be divided and then D. tsigana. Although 1st group which D. virilis was belonged can be determined as more primitive than the 2nd group, it seemed that this group was not the direct ancestor of the 2nd group, rather there should be another ancestor. Among the quinaria species group, D. nigromaculata was the first to be divided and D. kuntzei was the most recent species to be divided.

Since the introduction of AEO certification in South Korea in 2008, 516 areas have been AEO certified based on a report dated December 31st, 2013. The number is expected to increase drastically as more and more companies strive to obtain the AEO certification. In this regards, this study is designed to contribute to the further invigoration of the AEO certification system as well as to propose directions to improve companies' performance in a practical point of view. To do so, the writer reviewed the past studies done in the relevant subjects in order to 1) grasp the principal subject, 2) catch the areas with insufficient information/lacking points, and to 3) get a focus on future directions on how additional research should be conducted. An analysis of the past studies proved that prior to the introduction of the AEO certification, the focus of the studies were to present the reasons as to why AEO should be introduced, the benefits of AEO, and a comparative analysis of countries already in wide usage of the AEO system. Studies done after the introduction of AEO (that is, after 2008) focused mainly on invigorating the system into the market. Compared to the previous studies, this study will present a distinct conclusion by breaking down the major points of each study on a year-by-year basis and studying them in total in order to provide an even more practical direction in the future of AEO in South Korea.

This study analyzes the financial efficiency of the early scappage support system using the benefit and cost analysis. To do so, we use comprehensive administrative data on the early scrappage of old diesel vehicles. The result shows that the benefit-cost ratio was greater than 1 before 2020, but it appeared to be less than 1 after 2020. This indicates that despite recent reforms to increase the subsidy of early scrappage of old diesel vehicles, the rate of the benefit of air quality improvement is not as fast as the increase in system operation cost of this system. The benefit of air quality improvement depends on how much the operating period is shortened due to early scrappage support system. The earlier this period is brought forward, the more likely it is that the benefits of early scrappage will exceed the costs. Upon examining the results of this study, it was found that when the scrappage timing is brought forward by 5 years, the B/C for 98% of the samples becomes 1, greatly securing financial efficiency. Therefore, it is important for the government to reform the system so that it can influence the decision of old diesel vehicle owners on the timing of scrappage.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the difference in importance and performance of the university start-up support system focusing on D university students to grasp the perception of the start-up support system provided the university from the perspective of students who are real users. Through this, a plan for qualitative growth and advancement of the university start-up system was derived using the IPA (importance-performance analysis) analysis. The findings are as follows. The importance of all elements of university start-up education and start-up support system is higher than the performance, which means that the start-up education and support programs currently implemented by universities are recognized as important, but do not play a big role in terms of performance for students. In addition, the highest priority factors for improvement in the importance-performance matrix were funding and investment support, start-up space and facilities support, management advisory, patent and intellectual property support, and entrepreneurship field practice. Therefore, This study can be used as objective data to identify the factors that universities should focus on and establish a start-up support system from a long-term perspective, and to build and operate a start-up support system that reflects the needs of students.

This experiment was performed to find out the effects of the cicadas' songs on the psychological responses in adolescents. As a basic coulee, the experiment to set up 'Acceptable & Unacceptable' was performed. As a further coulee, five kinds of the cicadas' songs heard frequently were analyzed and adjectives expressing the feeling to cicadas' songs were factor-analyzed, and psychological responses to auditory sensations were analyzed through regression equations. As a result, the effect of the Cryptotympana atrata's song, the Meimuna opalifera's song and the traffic noise are similar in the degree of disturbing the meditation but they are less disturbing than the white noise. The experiment for adjectives expressing was performed, because it is possible that cicadas' songs affect adolescents as a noise. Cicadas' songs can be expressed with three kinds of factors. First factor is [Annoyance], second factor is [Strength] and third factor is [Rhythm]. The first factor dominates in the songs of the Cryptotympana atrata and the Platypleura kaempferi who generate steady sound, and the third factor dominates in the songs of the Meimuna opalifera, the Leptosemia takanonis and the Oncotympana fuscata who generate fluctuating sounds. The loudness of sound didn't affect on the third factor but the emotional values of the fist and the second factors are linearly proportional to the loudness. The analysis results of the first factor associated with noise showed that the annoyance of adolescents is increased in the order of white noise - the Platypleura kaempferi - the Cryptotympana atrata, if the loudness of sounds are generated equally.

Carbon Point system is Climate Change Action Program by providing incentives in proportion to voluntary reduction of energy consumption such as electricity, gas and water for houses, commercial facilities. So far, existing researches have been limited to construction of GHG(Green House Gas) Inventory and have little attention to empirical impact analysis on carbon reduction policy regarding the residential section. Therefore, this paper is intended to provide convincing findings of impact analysis on carbon reduction, revolving around the carbon point system. For this, we firstly calculated the carbon emission by using electricity and gas usage data in household targeting to Seongbuk-Gu. Carrying out IPA and spatio-temporal analysis. Then, we are capable of visualizing spatial patterns from 2007 to 2009 as a macro analysis. Following that, we explored the effect on carbon point system through Ex ante-Ex post Analysis by paired t-test. To conclude, we can spatially identify the distribution with a significant difference between carbon emissions according to energy use as a micro analysis by Hot Spot to Analysis on point entities. It is to be hoped that this method will be utilized to establish various policies and to evaluate the effect of reduction of GHG.
