Due to the great advances in e-Marketplace and changes in type of items purchased from the online market, it has been dramatically increased the demand of the storage and transportation under the special conditions such as restricted temperature. Especially, the cold chain needs the way to transparently measure and monitor the entire network in realtime because it has a very complicated structure and requires totally different criteria at the every different steps and items. In this research, it has been presented the performance evaluation metrics to make contract using service level agreement (SLA), the way to apply the smart contract based on blockchain, the structure of blocks, service platform and application in order to build cold chain which can prevent the risk factors by measuring and sharing information in realtime using block chain technology. In addition, we have proposed the way to store the measured performance and reputation of each player in the block using smart contract based on SLA. With the presented framework, all players including service providers as well as users can secure the information for making the rational decisions. When the service platform is actually built and operated, it seems possible to secure the information in transparently and realtime. Also, it is possible to prevent the risk factors or prepare the preemptive plans to react on them.

Onions show severe volatility in production and price because crop conditions highly depend on the weather. The government has designated onions as a sensitive agricultural product, and prepared various measures to stabilize the supply and demand. First of all, preemptive and reliable information on predicting onion production is essential to implement appropriate and effective measures. This study aims to contribute to improving the accuracy of production forecasting by developing a model to estimate the final weight of onions bulb. For the analysis, multi-level model is used to reflect the hierarchical data characteristics consisting of above-ground growth data in individual units and meteorological data in parcel units. The result shows that as the number of leaf, stem diameter, and plant height in early May increase, the bulb weight increases. The amount of precipitation as well as the number of days beyond a certain temperature inhibiting carbon assimilation have negative effects on bulb weight, However, the daily range of temperature and more precipitation near the harvest season are statistically significant as positive effects. Also, it is confirmed that the fitness and explanatory power of the model is improved by considering the interaction terms between level-1 and level-2 variables.

Consumer interest in food nutrition continues to grow; however, research on consumer preferences related to nutrition remains limited. In this study, big data analysis was conducted using keyword logs collected from the national information service, the Korean Food Composition Database (K-FCDB), to determine consumer preferences for foods of nutritional interest. The data collection period was set from January 2020 to December 2022, covering a total of 2,243,168 food name keywords searched by K-FCDB users. Food names were processed by merging them into representative food names. The search frequency of food names was analyzed for the entire period and by season using R. In the frequency analysis for the entire period, steamed rice, chicken, and egg were found to be the most frequently consumed foods by Koreans. Seasonal preference analysis revealed that in the spring and summer, foods without broth and cold dishes were consumed frequently, whereas in fall and winter, foods with broth and warm dishes were more popular. Additionally, foods sold by restaurants as seasonal items, such as Naengmyeon and Kongguksu, also exhibited seasonal variations in frequency. These results provide insights into consumer interest patterns in the nutritional information of commonly consumed foods and are expected to serve as fundamental data for formulating seasonal marketing strategies in the restaurant industry, given their indirect relevance to consumer trends.

Freight flow data in Korea has been collected for a variety of purposes by various organizations. However, since the representation and format of the data varies, it has not been substantially used for freight analyses and furthermore for freight policies. In order to increase the applicability of those data sets, it is required to bring them in a table and compare for finding the differences. Then, it is shown that the raw data can be aggregated by a particular criterion such as mode, origin and destination, and type commodity. This study aims to examine the freight data issue in terms of three different points of view. First, we investigated various freight volume data sets which are released by several organizations. Second, we tried to develop formulations for freight volume data. Third, we discussed how to apply the formulations to network models in which particular OR (Operations Research) techniques are used. The results emphasized that some data might be useless for modeling once they are aggregated. As a result of examining the freight volume data, this study found that 14 organizations share their data sets at various aggregation levels. This study is not an ordinary research article, which normally includes data analysis, because it seems to be impossible to conduct extensive case studies. The reason is that the data dealt in this study are diverse. Nevertheless, this study might guide the research direction in the freight transport research society in terms of data issue. Especially, it can be concluded that this study is a timely research because the governmemt has emphasized the importance of sharing data to public throughout 'government 3.0' for research purpose.

Coastal shipping performs a pivotal role as a national transportation network and is highly valuable in terms of enabling more economical transportation at affordable prices than road transportation. In this regard, this study aimed to examine changes in the characteristics and centrality of South Korea's costal shipping sea-route networks by analyzing the centrality of domestic coastal shipping. To this end, social network analysis was used as an analysis technique that enables an analysis on the characteristics of coastal shipping networks. As a result, Jeollanam-do showed the highest degree centrality, ranking first in both the in-degree and the out-degree. Jeollanam-do also exhibited the highest betweenness centrality, and Gangwon-do registered the highest closeness centrality. In terms of hub and authority centrality, Jeollanam-do topped the list, followed by Gyeongsangnam-do and Gangwon-do in order. Lastly, Jeollanam-do ranked highest in the hub index, followed by Incheon, other regions, and Gangwon-do in order. This study is significant for suggesting the cities and provinces that play a key role in coastal shipping each year and their corresponding items. Future studies are recommended to identify the trend of coastal shipping through more detailed research on each port by city and province.

The Farm-Closure Assistance (FCA) program is operated to compensate for lost farm income, to stabilize the management of low-competitive farms, and to enhance competitiveness of target items. The FCA, however, has several problems, such as the balloon effect and fraudulent receipts. Therefore, it is important to examine the operational problems of the FCA, establish improvement plans, and settle the measures. The objectives of this study are to analyze problems and suggest solutions for FCA, reflecting the viewpoints of local government officials who are in charge of actual tasks on the FCA front lines. The study analyzes whether characteristics of government officials lead to differences in setting the maximum amounts and extensions to FCA. Factors influencing the necessity of setting ceilings on FCA were work experience, recognition of agriculture's importance, and the FTA's impact on domestic agriculture, gender, and regions. Factors affecting the extension of FCA were the agency unit, work experience on the FTA, recognition of the effects of FTA direct payments and FCA, and recognition of the subsidy's direction. The results can be employed as a fundamental background that can set the direction for institutional improvement when the government tries to improve FCA.

Korea exported the passenger cars(HS 8703) such as key export item 41billion dollars in 2011. But the Korea's representative enterprises which bound forward in the global markets, have a tough time in the Japanese markets alone, and especially, they hardly sell key items such as automobiles. Japan is the third largest automobile market sold annually 5 millions, despite its long-term depression. At this time of point, analyzing the competition structure of the automobile market and proposing the strategies of the Korean enterprises's export to Japan would be a great academic contribution. This study analyzed the Japanese automobile market by the method of upper enterprises' Concentration Ratio($CR_k$) based on J. S. Bain's SCP paradigm and the literature study on the characteristics of the Japanese market by Itami Hiroyuki. As a result, in the Japanese automobile market, it is very likely that there exist market dominating enterprises, but at the same time, the movement of change also could be grasped between Japanese car makers. Accordingly, the cross-leveraging distribution strategy, brand strategy and Japan specification(designed for Japan) development strategy of the Korean enterprises' export to Japan which can respond to the change of the Japanese automobile markets were proposed.

지구온난화와 그에 따른 기후변화로 수자원부족현상이 전지구적으로 나타남에 따라 세계 각국은 물부족 현상을 극복하기 위해 다양한 대처방안을 찾고 있다. 가상수 이론은 전세계적 차원에서 상품에 내재된 가상수를 통해 물을 공급하고 배분함으로써 물부족을 해결할 수 있다는 주장으로서 물부족현상에 처한 세계 각국의 관심을 끌고 있다. 특히 향후 국제적 수준에서 물거래에 대한 조치가 예상됨에 따라 이에 가상수가 국가간에 얼마나 어떠한 형태로 이동하는지 '가상수 이동'에 대한 정보가 필요하게 되었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 지금까지의 가상수 흐름에 대한 정보는 미국이나 일본 등을 중심으로 한 자료뿐이었다. 한국을 중심으로 한국의 관심사를 반영한 가상수 이동에 대한 연구결과는 충분하지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전세계적 수준에서의 가상수 이동추이를 한국을 중심으로 분석하도록 한다. 분석수준은 전세계적 수준과 국가간 수준이며, 분석기간은 1989년부터 2014년까지 총 26년이다. 분석 대상은 가상수 교역이 활발한 주요 16개국의 11개 농축산물이다. 분석을 위한 자료로는 UN과 세계식량기구의 자료를 활용해 데이터셋을 구축했다. 분석결과 전세계적 수준에서는 콩, 옥수수, 밀, 보리가 주요 가상수 수출입 품목으로 밝혀졌다. 시기별로는 1999년 까지는 밀의 교역이 압도적이었으나 1999년 이후 콩 가상수의 교역이 증가하고 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 가상수의 유형과 관련해서는 녹색가상수의 교역이 청색가상수보다 압도적으로 많았으며, 국가간의 가상수 이동량은 지속적으로 증가하고 있는 추세임을 알 수 있었다. 가상수의 주요 수출국은 미국을 비롯해 브라질, 아르헨티나, 호주 등 농업대국이 상위권을 차지했고, 주요 수입국은 중국, 일본, 한국 등 동북아시아 국가들이었다. 가상수 수출은 미국이 분석기간 내내 우위를 차지하나, 2000년대 이후 중국의 부상이 눈에 띄는 변화라고 할 수 있다. 가상수 수입과 관련해서는 2000년대 이후 중국의 가상수 수입 증가 추세가 두드러졌다. 국가간 수준의 분석에서는 한국과 미국, 한국과 중국, 한국과 호주 등 한국의 주요 가상수 교역국가간의 흐름을 분석했다. 국가간 수준의 분석에서 특기할 만한 점은 미국에서 한국으로 이동한 전체 가상수의 81퍼센트를 녹색가상수가 차지하며, 한국에서 중국으로 이동한 가상수의 74퍼센트가 축산물 가상수라는 점이었다. 본 연구의 분석결과를 기반으로 해 향후에는 가상수 이동 데이터베이스를 구축할 것이 요구되며, 가상수 이동추이의 변화가 가져올 시나리오에 대한 연구도 필요하다고 할 수 있다.

This study was conducted to collect and analyze previous information in order to manage efficience, improve experience effect and promote employment rate. The questionnaire interview with 27 chief of dental Laboratory refered clinical experience in technology department about clinical experience in 14 Jumior colleges were also investigated. The results were summarried as follows : The portion of age of 35-39 among chief of dental Laboratory was 40.7% which was the highest, that of male was 96.3%, that of junior college graduate was 97.5%, that of 10years experience was 92.6% and that of ceramic technician was 85.2%, 63.0% dental laboratory for clinical experience was a bore space of 30pyong. Aspect of dental laboratory management, manufacturing all part of prosthetic restoration was 29.6%, othodontic appliance and ceramic restoration was 7.4%, 3.8%, each. The percentage of 40.7 was having connection with 30-3a dental clinics and referring case per day was 10-19 cases(40.7%), manufacturing time of referred prosthetic restoration was 3-4 days(77.8%), places preparing seminar room for education was 29.6%, above a place of 40pyong was 11.1% 30-34 pyong and 35-39 pyong was 7.4% each. During training of 2 years education course student, 18.5% was rack of thorough occupational career. While 44.4% will want the more salary among 3years education course student, 74.1% will expect the more dental techmicians would engaged in their field, 51.9% will hope improve of their theory and practice, 29.6% be expected better skill and 14.8% be expected better theory. Attitude of clinical experience places was distributed by 59.3% of offering only experience chance, 25.9% of wasting time and 29.0% of annoying. The big emphasis of climical experience was thorough occupational career(44.4%). The clinical experience places of our college were selected after direct visiting, so their condition of management was not that bad but most of dental laboratory were poor in management state and working environment. Therefore it is difficult to choose appropriate places and dental Laboratory are also limited manpower and time as suppliers. So that it recommended to induce flexible management of experience period by interval and rotation of experience places among college and to applicate intern-system for employment ant industry-college cooperation aspect.
