Purpose: The acceleration of technological innovation, specifically Industry 4.0, has triggered the emergence of a quality management paradigm known as Quality 4.0. This study aims to provide a systematic overview of dispersed studies on Quality 4.0 across various disciplines and to stimulate further academic discussions and industrial transformations. Methods: Text mining and machine learning approaches are applied to learn and identify key research topics, and the suggested key references are manually reviewed to develop a state-of-the-art overview of Quality 4.0. Results: 1) A total of 27 key research topics were identified based on the analysis of 1234 research papers related to Quality 4.0. 2) A relationship among the 27 key research topics was identified. 3) A multilevel framework consisting of technological enablers, business methods and strategies, goals, application industries of Quality 4.0 was developed. 4) The trends of key research topics was analyzed. Conclusion: The identification of 27 key research topics and the development of the Quality 4.0 framework contribute to a better understanding of Quality 4.0. This research lays the groundwork for future academic and industrial advancements in the field and encourages further discussions and transformations within the industry.

K-SEC (Korean-Spoken English Corpus) is a kind of speech database that is being under construction by the authors of this paper This article discusses the needs of the K-SEC from various academic disciplines and industrial circles, and it introduces the characteristics of the K-SEC design, its catalogues and contents of the recorded database, exemplifying what are being considered from both Korean and English languages' phonetics and phonologies. The K-SEC can be marked as a beginning of a parallel speech corpus, and it is suggested that a similar corpus should be enlarged for the future advancements of the experimental phonetics and the speech information technology.

This study analyzes the factors on the determinants of research productivity. In addition, this study uncovers the relationships between research productivity and various explanatory variables, and between explanatory variables. As for research productivity, 3 indices were used such as the number of papers, patents, and a combination of them. The data is the 3-year average from 2010-2012 by 1,383 researchers from 6 disciplines such as physics, chemistry, biology, mechanical engineering, electricity and electronics, and chemical engineering, reported to the National Research Foundation of Korea. Personal factors such as sex, age, academic rank and location of affiliation show the group difference for productivity. In addition, most resource factors such as the number of graduate students and research funds showed the same result with personal factors. As for the determinants, master and doctoral students and government funds are the most powerful factors for research productivity, but industry funds for patent and overall productivity.

Creativity is a long cherished and widely studied aspect of human behavior that allows us to re-invent the familiar, and to imagine the new. Computational creativity (CC) is a newly burgeoning area of creativity research that brings together academics and practitioners from diverse disciplines, genres and modalities, to explore the potential of computers to be autonomously creative, or to collaborate as co-creators with people. We describe here an architecture for creative Web services that will act as a force magnifier for CC, both for academic research, and for the effective deployment of real CC applications in industry. For researchers, this service-oriented architecture supports the pooling of technologies in a robust interoperable framework, in which CC models are conceived, developed and migrated from lab settings to an industrial strength platform. Industry developers, for their part, will be able to exploit novel results of CC research in a robust, low-risk form, without having to re-implement algorithms from a quickly moving field. We illustrate the architecture with the first of a growing set of creative Web services that provide robust figurative language processing on demand.

The year of 2009 marks the $200^{th}$ anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his book, On the Origin of Species. Having survived the 150 years of hardening and tempering, Darwin's theory of natural selection is now more comprehensive and powerful than ever. It casts its shadow over nearly all academic disciplines and societal sectors. It truly revolutionized the way we look at the world and ourselves. In the midst of Darwinian revolution, however, Korea remains as a backward country as far as the understanding of Darwin and his theory is concerned. A variety of intellectual activities organized to celebrate the Year of Darwin is helping to narrow the gap. This article summarizes the kinds of such activities held in Korea this year and explains how Darwin made all this possible. To paraphrase the famous quotation by Theodosius Dobzhansky, I now dare to say, "Nothing in life makes sense except in the light of evolution".

The purpose of this study was to analyze on the convergence for knowledge fusion in the filed of the engineering, science, aesthetics, humanities and social sciences. For the study, the related literatures were reviewed focusing on the convergence in the basis of the inter-disciplinary. In addition, interviews with 5 professors in the field of the engineering, science, aesthetics, humanities and social sciences were analyzed. The keys of analysis were perspective of academic disciplines. The findings of this study were as follows; most of professors recognized the inter-disciplinary of engineering, science, aesthetics, humanities and social sciences. But, there were some barriers engineering of professors in inter-disciplinary.

The results of the analyses of 431 doctoral disserations of science education (Dissertation Abstracts International. 1980-1984) are as follows : 1. It was recognized that many countries as well as USA(e.g. Canada, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, The Netherlands etc.) have deep interest in science education. 2. About 60% of dissertations had been focused on middle school (junior and senior)and college students as the subject of investigation. 3. Disciplines of science concerning the subject showed general science (35.6%), biology (18.3%), physics (11.4%), chemistry (11.4%), earth science (4.6%), and others (18.7%). 4. The number of dissertations belonging to experimental research was over 60 more than that of dissertations belonging to theoretical research. 5. In methodology of research, examination, test, questionaire were general method, and the field of research was focused mainly on the academic achievement.

Currently, flight training is not only a technical instruction that teaches maneuvering operations, but has expertise equal to that of general disciplines. Therefore, flight instructors must have academic knowledge and flight skills. As flight instructors are the first teacher in flight training for students who have never experienced actual flight control, the behavior of flight instructors will affect the students' flight education. Therefore, the influence of flight instructors for students are quite large compared to other educational institutions. In this study, the factors of instructional behavior were determined, and the actual state of instructional behavior of flight instructors were confirmed through students' survey. Improvements were derived to solve the problems identified in the survey results. For the follow-up analysis, improvements were applied to the flight instructors for 8 months, and then re-question was conducted to the same students who responded to the first questionnaire to find out the difference in results before and after through a paired t-test.

The diverse set of phenomena, concepts, and activities existing in academic disciplines could be studied from multiple perspectives. One of the promising approaches to explore phenomena is hermeneutics, especially in the form of hermeneutic phenomenology, which has been formed as a consequence of postmodern movements. Hermeneutic phenomenology has taken root in the original ideas of philosophers like Husserl, Heidegger, and Gadamer, and has become one of the fruitful research methodologies over time. After a brief review of the foundations of hermeneutic and phenomenological methodologies, the role of the hermeneutic phenomenology approach in supporting research and information services is discussed. The present article seeks to describe narratively the use of hermeneutic phenomenology in such issues as information technology, information behavior, knowledge organization, and librarians' roles as related to Information Science.
