This paper conducts a comparative analysis of citation patterns between journals and conferences using bibliometric and social network analysis on references from the 'Journal of the Korea Institute of Information Security and Cryptology (JKIISC)'. The results indicate that conference references slightly exceed journal references, with around 80% being international publications, highlighting Korean researchers' high dependency on overseas publications. Analysis of citation age shows trends of increasing immediacy citation rate, lengthening citing half-life, and shortening peak time, with domestic publications having higher immediacy citation rate and international publications having slower citing half-life. Mapping SCOPUS journals and ICORE conferences revealed that journal citations mainly come from 'Computer science' (32.3%), 'Engineering' (23.5%), 'Mathematics' (16.7%), and 'Social Cciences' (12.8%), along with other research fields (25.6%), while conference citations are predominantly in 'Cybersecurity and Privacy' with recent increases in 'Computer Vision and Multimedia Computation' and 'Machine Learning'. Co-citation network analysis shows higher degree centrality for conference groups and international publications. The co-citation frequency between different types of literature was highest between journals and conferences (36.9%), compared to within journals (34.3%) or within conferences (28.8%). Lastly, network visualization maps are presented to explore the structural connections among co-cited publications and their research fields. The results of this study suggest that the field of information security research in Korea effectively balances the use of journal and conference literature, indicating that the field is developing through a complementary relationship between these sources.

The purpose of this study was to identify the structure and pattern of conclusions chapters in research articles selected in four representative journals published in Korean LIS. To analyse the structure and pattern five categories and eleven elements drawn from RA conclusions were used such as 'Drawing Attention', 'Summarizing', 'Discussing', 'Applying' and 'Extending'. The Findings are as follows. 'Conclusions' was the most used title of the chapter, and then 'conclusions and suggestions'. The conclusions sections were consisted averagely 4.2 elements. 'Summary of findings' was the most frequently elements, followed by 'summary of research process', 'suggestion of further research' and 'implication'. Also, 'summary of findings' was the most used in lengths. 'Summarizing' was the highest frequency in five categories, followed by 'Extending', and 'Applying'. The dominant first element begun conclusions sections was 'summary of findings' and the final element closed conclusion was 'suggestion of further research'. 'Summary of research process - summary of findings' order was found in the most frequent pattern of conclusions. 'Summary of findings' and 'summary of research processes' in 'Summarizing' were found as essential functions, while other elements, such as significance, 'application', 'limitations' in 'Applying' and 'Extending' were found as optional functions in the conclusions of Korean LIS research articles.

Random Forest (RF), a representative ensemble technique, was applied to automatic classification of journal articles in the field of library and information science. Especially, I performed various experiments on the main factors such as tree number, feature selection, and learning set size in terms of classification performance that automatically assigns class labels to domestic journals. Through this, I explored ways to optimize the performance of random forests (RF) for imbalanced datasets in real environments. Consequently, for the automatic classification of domestic journal articles, Random Forest (RF) can be expected to have the best classification performance when using tree number interval 100~1000(C), small feature set (10%) based on chi-square statistic (CHI), and most learning sets (9-10 years).

This paper analyzes the current status of open access policies, publishing, and archiving in the field of medicine. Journals indexed in SCI are published by open access publishers such as BMC Ltd. and PLoS and then the research articles in those journals are archived in PMC and BMC. Also, funding institutions participate in developing open access as a new scholarly communication model and governments or independent funding institutions outside the country make policies for open access. But scholary communities in Korea do not develop their services in the level of a new scholarly communication model even though they open their journal articles on the homepages. This paper suggests several plans for the open access scholarly communication in the field of medicine in Korea.

The object of this study is to compare qualitative level of the Korean and American journal paper by faculty members in Korea. To achieve this object, the data was produced by the questionnaires from professors of the Chonbuk National University. The major conclusions are summarized as follows : 1. As a whole, American journal is evaluated better than Korean Journal. The greatest difference between Korean journal and American journal is that the American journal is more original and useful than Korean journal. 2. This study shows that American journal which deals with veterinary science is highly valuable and with living science is low. In Korean journal, the appropriateness of format is highly valuable. 3. The respondents who had studied in America for more than two years evaluate American Journal more excellent than those for less than two years. 4. Regardless of the periods of study in America, however, most of respondents evaluate American journal better than Korean Journal in all parts.

The purpose of this study is to verify if there is any difference on researchers' language preference for citing documents in different subject fields. 8 scientific journals were selected one of each from 8 main categories, given by National Research Foundation of Korea. Five variables including the rate of citing domestic and foreign documents for each journals were choose, and the differences on language preference among researchers of different subject fields were checked by implementing ANOVA. As a result, there are some differences on language preference, in terms of the average number and percentage of foreign documents, among researchers, based on their subject background. It also found that 8 subject categories divided into 4 small clusters.

OA journal publishing has steadily increased its relative share of all scholarly journal articles by about 20%-30%. The 'Gold' OA, often preferred by readers, refers to journal articles which are more widely available through the journal's web site immediately. This study analyzed funder and university's policy for paying APCs in implementing a Gold OA. In recent years there have been a number of attempts in the UK and Europe to stimulate more systematic arrangements for paying APCs, leading funders have clearly established arrangements in place. Also OA fund made by major universities in North America provides publisher with APCs. On the other hand, it is still in early stages in paying with gold OA requirements from Korean funders and universities. The funders have a 'Green' OA policy, such as upload the article accepted version to their online platform. Although it varies by field, many Korean authors are publishing in international journals. Their articles' impacts would rise when they are published as gold OA. Therefore, funders and universities need to pay attention to gold OA publishing and set up subsidies for APCs which are required by OA or hybrid journal publishers.
