For the past 20 years, expert groups and citizens in Korea have debated on the usefulness of personalized medicine. These debates were mainly focussed on the possibility of the promise - people mainly discussed whether it was a probable future or if it was just a hype. Following Hedgecoe and Tutton(2002) who argue that it is only a 'rhetorial device', we will analyze about 9,000 news media coverages that deal with personalized medicine. With these data, we will show that the same terminology of personalized medicine have been used very differently according to the time and people who use it. Our research will show that this term has both diachronic heterogeneity and synchronic equivocality. This has happened because of the innate lack that exists in our symbolic system. Policy and governance regarding new technology is important because they provide quilting point to those slippery term/signifiant. Also we would like to carefully suggest that we might be able to call this phenomena as signifiant-politics.

무주나무(Lasianthus japonicus Miquel)는 일본, 대만, 중국 등에 분포하고 열대 및 아열대의 상록활엽수림에서만 자라는 것으로 알려져 있으며, 우리나라에는 제주도 남쪽계곡에만 분포하는 희귀식물이다. 무주나무는 현재 환경부 지정 보호야생식물로 보호되고 있으나 개체특성 및 자생지에 대한 정확한 조사가 이루어진 바 없다. 본 연구는 무주나무의 자생지 현황과 생육특성을 파악하고자 실시하였다. 무주나무의 자생지는 제주도 남제주군 남원읍 하례리 해발 250m의 계곡 동사면과 서귀포시 돈네코 계곡의 해발 350 m 계곡의 서사면 등 2개소로 확인되었다. 자생지별 개체수는 남원읍 하례리 4개체, 서귀포시 돈네코계곡 5개체 등 총 9개체에 불과하였다. 자생지는 계곡의 상록수림 하부에 바위 위 부엽토나, 습한 계곡 사면이었으며, 교목층에는 구실잣밤나무, 비쭈기나무, 황칠나무, 동백나무 등이 우점하고, 관목층에는 사스레피나무, 백량금, 산호수 등이 우점하는 상록활엽수림이었다. 분포 개체의 수고는 최소 0.4 m, 최대 1.55 m로 평균 1.5 m 였다. 생장특성을 조사한 결과 줄기는 어릴 때는 사각형이지만 점차 원형으로 되며, 일정한 마디가 있고 털이 없으며, 잎은 대생하고, 혁질이며, 중륵과 측맥이 뚜렷한 특성을 갖고 있었다. 열매는 장과형으로 성숙 시에는 남색이며 털이 없으며, 직경 약 6-7 mm, 4-5개의 종자가 들어 있었다. 종자는 반달형이며, 3개의 홈이 지는 특성을 갖고 있었다. 현재의 자생지는 자연적인 요인으로서 토양유실이 심하게 일어나고 있는 지역이었으며, 교목 또는 다른 관목에 의한 피압으로 무주나무의 생장에 부적절한 환경으로 판단되었다. 따라서 자생지의 적절한 식생관리와 지속적인 자생지 조사 및 자생지외 보존에 관한 연구가 이루어져야할 것으로 생각된다.$I_{NO}$ 가 죽절초를 제외한 3종에서 여름철 낮시간에 증가하였다. 겨울철의 O-J-I-P곡선은 모든 종에서 낮시간에 다소 낮아지지만 큰 변화는 없었다. 그리고, 문주란, 박달목서, 파초일엽에서 $\psi$o/(1-$\psi$o)가 낮시간에 다소 증가하였다. 이로부터 P $I_{NO}$ , SF $I_{NO}$ , $\psi$o/(1-$\psi$o)등의 변수는 식물의 활력도를 검정하는 지표로 활용될 가능성이 높다고 할 수 있다.irc}C$) 까지 동시에 냉각된 사실을 지시한다. 각섬석 편암내의 각섬석들은 복잡한 40Ar/39Ar 연대를 보여주며 일부가 평형연대를 보여주지만 특별한 의미 부여가 힘들다.해예방행동을 촉구하는 등의 효과도 높은 것으로 예방의학적인 유용성이 크다고 볼 수 있다. 미침을 알 수 있었다. 대두 단백질로 코팅된 golden delicious는 상온에서60일 동안 보관하였을 경우, 사과표피의 색도 변화를 현저히 지연시킴을 확인하였다. 또한 control과 비교하여 성공적으로 사과에 코팅하였으며, 상온에서 보관하여을 때 사과의 품질을 30일 이상 연장하는 효과를 관찰하였다. 이들 결과로부터 대두단백질 필름이 과일 등의 포장제로서 이용할 가능성을 확인하였다.로 [-wh] 겹의문사는 복수 의미를 지닐 수 없 다. 그러면 단수 의미는 어떻게 생성되는가\ulcorner 본 논문에서는 표면적 형태에도 불구하고 [-wh]의미의 겹의문사는 병렬적 관계의 합성어가 아니라 내부구조를 지니지 않은 단순한 단어(minimal $X^{0}$ elements)로 가정한다. 즉, [+wh] 의미의 겹의문사는 동일한 구성

The terminology "human body" simply means a physical body but also more often, as an object in art works, carries symbolic concepts incorporating the whole history of human lives. Human body has been employed as an artistic object capturing physical body, delivering artist's idea expressing life indicators from different standpoints of times and places. This point of view about human body in art works has in fact rather short history since 1960's when modern thinking paradigm focusing upon rationality and reasoning has begun declining and on the contrary when the body used to be the servant of the mind and soul for a long time has begun attracting artist's attention as a real entity from the viewpoint of dichotomy. During the 1960's, frequent performances in Pop art and of Fluxus showed that the human body has been an important media for artistic communication after importance of body performances had been raised in Action painting in 1940's. The human body became a more determined media in body art works that had got into stride after Yves Kline's conceptual works applying body and its traces. These kinds of art works have continued and consolidated into the Feminism came into blossom in 1980's and into fragmentated and disembodied body art trend in 1990's. Through development of trends in body works, human body now might well be regarded as a clue provide from individual identity with implication over the world. This thesis is to analyse in semiotic way main works of Kiki Smith who is a representative artist devoting to Feminism and proposing extended significance of human body. In the analysis process of works done by two great artists with histrorical background of art trend in order to find and open an significance horizon of human body, semiotics and bodism are therefore perceived as pertinent and applied as basic tools. The first stage of analysis is to get the significances emerged in between expression part and contextual parts, which are separated structually from the most basic level. The study deals with body works furthermore in the way of structual cohesion of the expression and the context from the view of A J. Greimas' Structural Semantics and tried to build up a basic frame for the extended significances of human body. This thesis is, on the other hand, to attempt to contribute for extension of disembodied and fragmentated body discussed in the structural semantic frame earlier by Julia Kriesteva who delivers abjection concepts and phenomenology of Maurice Merleau-Ponty who enables to overview relationship between the body and the world from the viewpoint of Bodism, further into interpretation level. The other works are Kiki smith's that showed epics about death in mid-1980's, detailed humbleness of vulnerable human body exposed to dichotomy and fragmentation in 1990's and religion and mythology incorporating wouln healing in 2000's and henceforth. Through the analysis of Kiki Smith's representative work 'Pee body', it is verified and confirmed that fragmentated body showed beyond boundary gap of the human body and ultimately tends to imply human healing owing to divine maternity. Bodily symbols in Kiki Smith's are extended to the universal world to imply human life and death on the one hand and religion and mythology of human wound and divine healing one the other hand. This thesis through these process and results of analysis is in a broad context, to emphasize that human body as objectified text has a key indicator role to understand world as well as semiotic extension in art works in late 20th century so that we might confirm bodily symbol as a cultural context constitutes a section of contemporary visual arts.

The community and communal folk belief are developed as spatial phenomena. So the communal folk belief express the spatial perception of inhabitants in traditional village. This study analysis the spatial characteristics of communal folk belief in traditional village. The study area is Bangchon village which consists of seven hamlets in Changhung-gun, Chollanam-do. The reset are as follows. First, the seven hamlet\`s location process in Bangchon village has been developed with spatio-temporal variations since Korea dynasty. Second, the communal folk belief in study area can be classified as Ipsok, Byolsinje\`s site, Hojeby\`s site. Third, the spatial characteristics of communal folk belief in study area are indication of each hamlet\`s boundary, indication of entrance and exit of Bangchon visage, indication of central space of Bangchon village in traditional period. Consequently, the spatial distribution of communal for belief are important indicator about spatial structure and spatial perception in traditional village\`s society.

2001년 12월과 2002년 1월에 걸쳐 조간대 환경에 위치하는 어느 해양사격장 중위에서 일정한 간격으로 표층(<5 cm) 해양퇴적물(총22개소)과 해양생물체(굴; 총10개소)를 샘플링하고, Pb, Cu, Cd, Zn를 위시한 중금속원소의 공간적 농도 분포와 생흡수도(bioavailability)를 분석 고찰하였다. 본 논문에서는 예비 연구 결과를 간단히 소개한다. 해양퇴적물에 대한 전함량 분석, 0.1N HCl에 의한 부분 분석 및 BCR법에 의한 연속추출 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. Pb, Cu, Cd, Zn을 위시한 중금속은 대체적으로 점오염원인 사격장으로 갈수록 전함량 및 부분함량이 높아지는 경향을 보여주었다. 사격장 주변에서 가장 중요한 오염물질로 알려져 있는 Pb는 오염원 주변에서만 높은 함량을 보여주어, 해양 환경 하에서 이동도( 및 생흡수도)가 비교적 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 반면, Cu, Cd, Zn의 경우에는 보다 넓은 영역에 걸쳐 퇴적물 내의 부화(enrichment)가 인지되어 연구지역의 갯벌 환경에 의미있는 정도로 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이 곳의 생물체(굴) 역시 Pb에 대해서는 낮은 흡수도(-값의 생농축계수)를 나타낸 반면, Cu, Cd, Zn에 대해서는 의미있는 생흡수도를 나타내었다. BCR 연속추출법에 의한 퇴적물 중금속의 존재형태 해석 결과를 보면, fraction 1(F1; exchangeable+acidic phase) 및 fraction 2(F2; reducible phase)의 기여도가 지배적이고, 또한 오염원으로 갈수록 그 기여도는 점차 증가됨을 나타내었다. 특이하게도 유기물과의 친화력이 높은 것으로 알려진 Cu 역시 F1과 F2에 대하여 높은 함량을 나타내어 오염원으로부터의 Cu의 확산을 지시하였다. 외국에 비하여, 그동안 국내에서는 사격장 주변의 자연환경변화에 관하여 연구된 결과가 거의 전무하였다. 본 연구 결과는, 이와 유사한 사격장 주변 환경에서의 중금속 분포와 거동 특성에 대하여 종합적인 모니터링(즉, 체계적인 환경지구화학적 조사ㆍ연구)이 시급함을 시사해 주고 있다.

In this paper, I am going to analyze a commercial film narrative focused on a temporal order through the theory of narrative discourse by Gerard Genette. Advertisements has a special quality or feature to be convertible into mythological hyper reality to advertise an product effectively. In this process, narrative in a commercial film has visual variations using a temporal order to show an glamorously advertisements in television. The reason that narrative in a commercial film is subject to variation with a temporal order, duration, frequency is to get some aesthetic effect for making sure people see them. Under the influence of postmodernism, image making like a pop-art became the first consideration in a commercial film with the consequence that representation as a signifier came to be more important than object as a signified. As a commercial film have more sensational image as a result of visual variation, images in a commercial film became vague so that it does not explain or express an advertising concept dearly. However, those aspects have assets that it gives the TV audience a room for interpretation in advertisements by themselves.

The effect of the relative abundances of planktonic foraminifera juveniles on the climatic and oceanographic history interpretations is documented for the first time (as far as we know) by use of the year-long time-series sediment trap samples. Statistical correlation analysis suggests that many climatic and oceanographic variables such as sinking flux (total number) of planktonic foraminifera, relative abundance of some climatic indicator species G. bulloides and N. dutertrei, temperature, and salinity do not show any significant correlations with the relative abundance of planktonic foraminifera juveniles. However, planktonic foraminifera juveniles show moderate correlations with species diversity indices (species richness, Shannon-Wiener index, and Equitability). These indicate that the juveniles do not affect the relative abundances(%) of species compositions but affect the species diversity indices. Based on this one-year trap result, special care is required when we use species diversity indices for the interpretations of paleoceanography when the juveniles are excluded from total planktonic foraminiferal countings.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cohesion-related text factors that affected the correct answer rate of the English reading section in the Korean CSAT. To this end, reading passages of the 2014-2018 CSAT and CSAT mock test were collected and analyzed in terms of cohesion. And then, correlation analysis was implemented between the results regarding cohesion and item difficulty. The conclusions were as follows. First, the correct answer rate tended to increase as the linguistic burden of learners was reduced, when specific arguments between sentences were repeated. Second, there was no statistically significant correlation between the 8 sub-area of latent semantic analysis and the correct answer rate. Finally, the pedagogical implications of this study and suggestions for further study were discussed.

Velocity anisotropy of unconsolidated sediments in the Ulleung Basin, East Sea were studied by using 22 piston cores. Velocity anisotropy shows about 0.4 and 1.2％ in the Plain and Slope sediments, respectively. Horizontal velocity is greater than vertical velocity. It is resulted in positive anisotropy. Thus, bedding must be regarded as the principal cause of acoustic anisotropy in the Ulleung Basin sediments. The differences of the value are different from 5 m/s to 18 m/s in the Plain and Slope area, respectively. The relationships between physical properties and velocity anisotropy are clearly grouped. This result suggests that the slope sediments are probably affected by sedimentological (esp. physical properties) changes resulting from diagenesis.

As multimedia information recently increases fast, various types of retrieval of multimedia data are becoming issues of great importance. For the efficient multimedia data processing, semantics based retrieval techniques are required that can extract the meaning contents of multimedia data. Existing retrieval methods of multimedia data are annotation-based retrieval, feature-based retrieval and annotation and feature integration based retrieval. These systems take annotator a lot of efforts and time and we should perform complicated calculation for feature extraction. In addition. created data have shortcomings that we should go through static search that do not change. Also, user-friendly and semantic searching techniques are not supported. This paper proposes to develop S-MARS(Semantic Metadata-based Multimedia Annotation and Retrieval System) which can represent and extract multimedia data efficiently using MPEG-7. The system provides a graphical user interface for annotating, searching, and browsing multimedia data. It is implemented on the basis of the semantic metadata model to represent multimedia information. The semantic metadata about multimedia data is organized on the basis of multimedia description schema using XML schema that basically comply with the MPEG-7 standard. In conclusion. the proposed scheme can be easily implemented on any multimedia platforms supporting XML technology. It can be utilized to enable efficient semantic metadata sharing between systems, and it will contribute to improving the retrieval correctness and the user's satisfaction on embedding based multimedia retrieval algorithm method.
