PC-to-PC 또는 PC-to-Phone에서 구현되었던 초기 VoIP 서비스의 낮은 음성 품질은 기존 유선 전화서비스와 경쟁이 되지 않는 것으로 인식되었고 규제의 대상에서 제외되었다. 그러나 기술의 발전에 따라 향상된 품질의 음성서비스 및 다양한 응용서비스 등을 저렴한 가격에 제공할 수 있게 되었으며, 식별번호의 부여를 통해 VoIP 서비스는 기존 음성전화서비스와 동등한 수준의 경쟁력을 확보할 수 있는 것으로 평가되어, 기간통신서비스로서 기존 음성전화서비스와 유사한 수준의 규제를 받게 되었다. 최근에는 이러한 VoIP 서비스가 유선 환경에서뿐만 아니라 무선 LAN 환경에서도 구현되었고, 나아가 VoWLAN과 이동전화를 묶음으로 제공하는 기술이 가능하게 되었으며, 궁극적으로 VoIP가 이동전화서비스와 같이 완전한 이동 환경에서의 구현이 멀지않은 것으로 전망되고 있다. 이에 따라 무선 또는 이동 환경에서의 VoIP 서비스에 대한 이슈가 수면 위로 부상할 전망이며, 특히 이동 환경은 기존 이동전화사업자의 주파수 할당대가 납부 등의 측면에서 유선 환경과는 다소 차이가 있으므로 이동 환경에서의 VoIP를 어떤 식으로 규정해야 될지에 대해 많은 논란이 일 것으로 예상된다.

Although cooperative learning strategies in many subject areas have been found to be effective, the effect of cooperative learning on academic achievement in science laboratory setting is not clear. Reported results on the effects of the strategies for higher achieving students are not also consistent. In this study, the cooperative learning strategies emphasizing student-centered learning which included higher order thinking activities were used in a elementary school science course. The cooperative and traditional learning groups were selected from fifth-grade classes, and taught about dissolution and solution for 16 class periods. The effects of the cooperative learning strategies upon students' academic achievement, science process skill, the attitude toward science instruction, and the perceptions of classroom environment were investigated. Two-way ANCOVA results revealed that the test scores of academic achievement and science process skill for the cooperative learning group were significantly higher than those of the traditional learning group. No interaction between the instruction and the level of previous achievement was found. The perceptions of confliction were higher in cooperative learning group. In the attitude toward science instruction and the perceptions of participation, however, no significant difference between the two groups was found. Educational implications are discussed.

To install and operate the Automatic Noise Monitoring Networks reasonably, which able to monitoring environmental noise continually, is an important issue for making decision to urban environment. Noise level is determined by regional environmental factors, that affected by complex urban environment. Therefore, accurate measurement of environmental noise level has top priority to establish and promote appropriate environmental policies. Currently, Automatic Noise Monitoring System is installed for grasping the environmental noise level and preparing basic data for constructing noise-reduction policies. However, this measurement data is recognized not to be able to reflect a sensory noise. The main reason is the lack of reliable measurement data and unreasonable installation site. The main point of this research ought to be the analysis of installed site of noise monitoring system in Busan.

The purpose of this paper is to study whether there are differences in the relationship between IT utilization level and organizational performance among large, medium and small-sized enterprises. This study first assessed the immediate influence of IT utilization level on organizational performance, and then further examined the moderating effects of the organizational size and the environmental dynamism that had influences on the relationship between IT utilization level and organizational performance. The empirical test revealed that IT utilization level had significant impact on organizational performance in case of all sized enterprises. But, the sub-group analysis revealed that IT utilization level had no statistically significant impact on organizational performance in case of large enterprises despite of higher IT utilization level than small and medium-sized enterprises. The relationship between IT utilization level and organizational performance was not moderated significantly by environmental dynamism in case of all sized enterprises. But, the sub-group analysis revealed that environmental dynamism had significant moderating effect on the relationship between IT utilization level and organizational performance in case of large and small-sized enterprises when there was a high level of environmental dynamism.

임산공업으로부터 발생되는 폐기물은 오염원으로서 그 위험도가 그다지 크지 않으나, 많은 공장들이 주거지와 인접해 있기 때문에 심한 오염원을 제공하는 것으로 인식되고 있다. 오늘날의 임산공업은 공장설립시 가장 중요하게 고려하는 사항으로서 환경에 미치는 충격을 최소로 하는 방향이며, 기본적으로 무공해 측면에서 공장의 설계 및 작업이 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 임산공업으로부터 발생되는 오염원의 종류와 각각의 오염원들이 환경에 미치는 효과를 개관하였으며, 이들 오염원으로부터 환경을 지키려는 최근의 기술개발 및 연구 현황을 검토하였다. 환경오염을 줄이는 방법은 막대한 경비가 소요되기 때문에 원자재의 사용량을 줄이거나, 에너지 이용효율 등을 높이는 방향에서 노력하고 있지만 폐기물처리를 위한 효과적인 대안은 없다. 그러나 정부 및 산업체가 환경을 보전한다는 차원에서 어느정도의 처리수준이 적절한지에 과한 검토를 계속하고 있다. 그리고 폐기물의 회수 및 재이용이 환경을 보전하는데 큰 역할을 한다는데 정부, 지역사회, 산업체 및 개인간에도 그 인식이 커가고 있다.

This paper presents the Part 1 of the Questionnaire Survey on Marine Safety and VTS in the Philippine Coastal Waters. This part deals with respondents profiles; experiences onboard and ashore; familiar areas; and their subjective perception of marine risks- by factors and by areas. The subjects are chosen from different regions nationwide with connection and/or with maritime background. There are 202 responses returned and these are put into a database for analysis made through Excel programs and statistics references. The result of the nationwide responses show that 97 % of respondents have shipboard experiences onboard of different ships' types and sizes; and 88 % are directly involved in the navigation of ships. Risk Perception levels - by factors and by familiar areas - show a higher risk degree in the 3rd level ('Sometimes Increases Risks') and 4th level ('Often Increases Risk') in each respondents' response indices. The study finds that the most risky factor is the "Violation of Rules and Regulations" which has a high risk at 5th level (Very Often Increases Risk), and for the over-all familiar areas, the Manila Bay area (NCR region) garners the most risky perception, also, at the 5th level. It is, therefore, recommended by this paper to conduct a comprehensive review of the rules and regulations viable in each locality; strengthening the maritime traffic systems, structures and educating the stake-holders specifically in Manila Bay area and other busy waterways of the country. The ultimate goal of this paper is to gather information, analyze these data and develop a set of tools and techniques to be utilized as a guide in the improvement and development of maritime traffic safety in the country.
