Recently, with achieved US$ 500 Billion international cumulative construction order, the Korean government presented overseas construction industry visions for international orders of US$ 100 B and entering the top five countries in global construction market. Also, Korean companies are developing strategies for expansion of international markets especially focused on company competitiveness as a target market. Therefore, this study aims to analysis of competitiveness for the Cambodian building construction market, which presents abundant development potential. The results of IPA result were as follows; construction order information and supply chain management are needed for public tender projects and F/S, global project financing, and supplier relationship management are needed for construction investment projects. However, this work is still considered to provide the basic data that can help Korean construction companies who plan to enter the Cambodian building construction market strengthen their medium and long-term capabilities.

The goal of this study was to examine ways to improve the quality of databases of the Korean National Assembly Digital Library(KNADL). In order to achieve the goal, we first designed an assessment tool that could measure the quality of the 'contents,' the 'service,' and the 'system' of the KNADL's databases. Each of the three categories also had sub-categories-i.e., eight sub-categories for 'contents'(e.g., accuracy, recency, ${\cdots}$), seven sub-categories for 'service'(e.g., convenience for request, rapid response, ${\cdots}$), and seven sub-categories for 'system'(e.g., usability, response time, ${\cdots}$). We thenconducted a survey using the assessment tool we developed and gathered a total of 270 responses from users of KNADL's databases. We used Excel and PASW Statistics 18 for data analysis. Each sub-category was measured by its importance and by the level of satisfaction(implemented from the DigiQUAL project). Finally, we performed an importance-satisfaction analysis(ISA) to identify what action(i.e., maintain, concentrate, low priority, and exceed) needs to be made in each sub-category. We concluded the paper with some useful suggestions for improving the quality of KNADL's databases.

The detection algorithm for loss of balance had three main parts: one for processing data, another for constructing an internal model, and a third for detecting the loss of balance. The part related to the internal model is the most important part of the algorithm. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of variables associated with the internal model on the success rate of the algorithm. The internal model depends on the type of linearization adopted and the operating period of the algorithm. The design variables were evaluated by performing sensitivity analysis of the variables of the internal model in order to obtain the success rate of the algorithm. The results showed that the most sensitive variable was the period and the period of 0.3 s yielded the highest success rate of 97.1%. Further, the ranges of the design variables that can facilitate a success rate of over 95% are presented.

This study examined importance and performance of urban agriculture education program of the trainees who attended urban agriculture education, and suggested reformation of urban agriculture instructor course of Gyeonggi Provincial Agricultural Research & Extension Services by IPA models. The investigation was done on October 7, 2011. The subject was 40 trainees of urban agriculture instructor course of Gyeonggi Provincial Agricultural Research & Extension Services. The study suggested reformation of urban agriculture education program based on the findings as follow: Firstly, the instructors should teach trainees not theoretically but practically to let the trainees make use of learning at urban agriculture. Secondly, teaching material that is not theoretically but practical enough to apply it to actual urban agriculture should be supplied. Thirdly, urban agriculture education should be done not theoretically but practically considering its characteristics. Theoretical contents have been already included in teaching material, and practice oriented education should be done to let trainees put theory into practice on-the-spot. Practice oriented education should be supported in the planning future education. In addition future urban agriculture education program should consider importance as well as practice of educational contents, lecturers, operations and facilities.

The purpose of this study is to investigate factors influencing dietary satisfaction, and their perceived importance and performance, in North Korean refugees according to age. Questionnaires were completed by 220 North Korean refugees and data was analyzed with SPSS software. From our study we determined that fresh food, clean dishes, and proper vegetable oil are of high importance but considered poorly performed. 'Taste' and 'comfort' were factors with low importance but considered well-performed. The IPA technique proved that 8 items including Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8, Q9, Q11, Q13 were in 'Doing great, keep it up' and no items that got high importance and low performance were in 'Focus here'. North Korean refugees like Korean food more than Chinese, Japanese, and Western food. They specifically want to learn how to cook Korean casseroles, soups, and side dishes(e.g. Myeolchibokkum, Kongjorim). The North Korean refugees who resided in South Korea under a year have difficulties in understanding menus and Western table manners.

오늘날 소프트웨어의 설계 및 개발과 관련된 연구들은 많은 발전을 이루고, UML과 같은 의사소통을 위한 표준 언어가 만들어졌으며 많은 사람들이 관련 이론을 수용 및 활용하고 있다. 또한, 개발 프로세스에서의 설계 및 구현과 더불어 소프트웨어의 유지 보수 단계는 매우 중요하며 이러한 소프트웨어의 유지 보수를 위한 소프트웨어 검증에 관련된 연구는 근래에 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 하지만 소프트웨어 검증의 기술 개발 수준은 설계 및 개발에 비하여 많이 미흡한 실정이다. 소프트웨어 검증은 주로 검증하기 위한 입력 데이터를 산출하여 프로그램 실행을 통해 결과를 확인하는 동적 분석에 대한 연구가 주를 이룬다. 이러한 동적 분석은 원하는 산출물의 확인을 주목적으로 하며, 결과를 표현하는 데에는 따로 정형화된 형식이 필요 없다. 하지만 소스코드를 분석하여 소프트웨어의 구조 관계와 흐름을 파악하는 정적 분석은 분석 자료를 표현하는 표현 모델이 중요하다. 현재는 정적 분석의 결과를 표현하기 위한 공통의 표현 모델이 없기 때문에 검증 과정에서의 의사소통에서 의견의 불일치의 가능성이 있고, 설계 단계에서 사용되는 표현 모델로는 정적 분석 정보의 모든 내용을 표현하는데 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어의 정적 분석 과정을 분석 4계층으로 구분하고, 각 계층마다 분석 결과를 나타내기 위한 표현 모델을 제시한다. 그리고 이 표현 모델을 활용한 소프트웨어 분석 도구의 개발을 위해, 소스 분석 데이터를 가시적으로 표현하기 위한 자료구조의 설계에 대한 내용을 다룬다.

In the steel industry, there is a perception that "collusion has become a long-standing practice" and it is expected that the authorities' legal response to collusion will be strengthened in the future. This necessarily requires improving the accuracy of the legal response, the most important of which is to accurately identify whether the allegedly colluding firms actually did collude. This study focuses on the recent iron scrap price-fixing case and examines whether a single accused firm actually engaged in price-fixing in a situation where there is a mix of firms that acted independently of the collusion and firms that actually engaged in price-fixing. The results of the analysis allow us to infer that the accused steelmaker did not actually collude, which is consistent with the authorities' final judgment against the steelmaker. In the real world, some collusions are carried out by only a subset of firms in a market, and in these cases, there are often disputed firms as to whether or not they carried out the collusion. This study can serve as an analytic guide for industries, including the steel industry, to verify the behavior of individual firms, especially those whose collusive practices are disputed.
