  • In this paper, we introduced that the differences and reasons about oriental and western consciousness structure by borrowing from Dr. Richard E. Nisbett who is a professor of Michigan University of USA and writer of . And then, we introduced two survey results about likeness, dislikeness and aesthetic sence on mathematics. In their surveys, we researched the differences and attitudes between Korean male students and female students. Furthermore, we present a new educational curriculum to promote university students' various culture consciousness on mathematics.

  • Estimating the effects of price increase on a company's sales is important task faced by managers. If consumer has prior information on price increase or expect it, there would be stockpiling and subsequent drops in sales. In addition, consumer can suppress demand in the short run. Above factors make the sales dynamic and unstable. We develop a time series model to evaluate the sales patterns with stockpiling and short term suppression of demand and also propose a forecasting procedure. For estimation, we use panel data and extend the model to Bayesian hierarchical structure. By borrowing strength across cross-sectional units, this estimation scheme gives more robust and reasonable result than one from the individual estimation. Furthermore, the proposed scheme yields improved predictive power in the forecasting of hold-out sample periods.

  • I build a small open economy (SOE) dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model to investigate the effect of a heterogeneous wage contract between regular and temporary workers on a macroeconomic volatility in a financially fragile economy. The imperfect financial market condition is captured by a quadratic financial adjustment cost for borrowing foreign assets, and the labor market friction is captured by a Nash bargaining process which is only available to the regular workers when they negotiate their wages with the firms while the temporary workers are given their wage which simply equals the marginal cost. As a result of impulse responsesto a domestic productivity shock, the higher elasticity of substitution between two types of workers and the lower weight on the regular workers in the firm's production process induce the higher volatilities in most variables. This is reasoned that the higher substitutability creates more volatile wage determination process while the lower share of the regular workers weakens their Nash bargaining power in the contract process.

  • This study investigated the effect of householder's occupation on the debt structures of households. Household debts were categorized into six types according to borrowing sources: debts from banks, other financial institutes, employers, private sources, Gye, and retailers. Householder's occupations were classified into four groups: full-time employees, employers, farmers & fishermen, and part-time employees. The data came from the 1996 Korean Household Panel Study. It was found that the rates of holding each types of debt and the debt amounts were different according to householder's occupation. The human and economic resources to overcome the possible household debt problems were also different by the householder's occupation.

  • The problem of information related to I poission experiments, each having a distinct failure rate $\theta$i I=1,2,…,I, is considered. Instead of using a standard exchangeable prior for $\theta$=($\theta$1,$\theta$2,…,$\theta$I), we consider a partition of the experiments and take the $\theta$i's belonging to the same partition subgroup to be exchangeable and the $\theta$i's belonging to distinct subgroups to be independent. And we perform Gibbs sampling approach for Bayesian inference on $\theta$ conditional on a partition. Numerical study using real data is provided.

  • Uncertain factors in finical markets make the prediction of future returns and risk of asset much difficult. In this paper, a model,assuming the admissible errors on expected returns and risks of assets, assisted in the multiperiod mean variance portfolio selection problem is built. The model considers transaction costs, upper bound on borrowing risk-free asset constraints, cardinality constraints and threshold constraints. Cardinality constraints limit the number of assets to be held in an efficient portfolio. At the same time, threshold constraints limit the amount of capital to be invested in each stock and prevent very small investments in any stock. Because of these limitations, the proposed model is a mix integer dynamic optimization problem with path dependence. The forward dynamic programming method is designed to obtain the optimal portfolio strategy. Finally, to evaluate the model, our result of a meaning example is compared to the terminal wealth under different constraints.

  • The emergence of Web 2.0 technologies, such as blogs and wiki, enable even naive users to easily create and share content on the Web using freely available content sharing tools. Wide availability of almost free data and promiscuous sharing of content through social networking platforms created a content borrowing phenomenon, where the same content appears (in many cases in the form of extensive quotations) in different outlets. An immediate side effect of this phenomenon is that identifying which content is re-used by whom is becoming a critical tool in social network analysis, including expert identification and analysis of information flow. Internet-scale reuse detection, however, poses extremely challenging scalability issues: considering the large size of user created data on the web, it is essential that the techniques developed for content-reuse detection should be fast and scalable. Thus, in this paper, we propose a $qSign_{lsh}$ algorithm, a mechanism for identifying multi-sentence content reuse among documents by efficiently combining sentence-level evidences. The experiment results show that $qSign_{lsh}$ significantly improves the reuse detection speed and provides high recall.

  • A novel CPFDTD algorithm for modeling the smooth curved surfaces is presented. This scheme subdivides electric fields on the distorted grid into the extended contour field, the non-distorted field, and the quasi-available field to avoid the collinear borrowing approximation. Several preceding methods are applied to the I-plane sectoral horn antenna to get far-field patterns. The accuracy of the presented method is demonstrated by comparison with measured values.

The Idea of City in Leon B. Alberti's De re aedificatoria (알베르티의 『건축론』에 제시된 도시 개념)

  • This paper discusses Leon Battista Alberti's vision of the paradigmatic city. In his De re aedificatoria, Alberti proposes how the architecture of both individual buildings and cities should be ordered and embellished. Borrowing ideas from the ancient writers on one hand, and reflecting on actual urban reality on the other, Alberti proposes an ideal city where the sacred and the secular come together in hierarchical harmony, beautified under the principle of ornament. In Book VIII, dealing with secular public works of architecture, he writes about the composition of a new humanist city that transcends actual reality. Ornament, a central idea of his aesthetics, supports his conception of the paradigmatic city.

  • 공정기술의 발달과 컴퓨터 구조적인 발전에 의해서, 시스템의 동작속도가 기하급수적으로 증가하고 있다. 동작속도의 증가는 CMOS로 구현된 chip의 RC 특성에 의해서 timing variation 문제가 발생할 가능성이 높아지면서 테스트 비용이 전체 설계비용에서 차지하게 되는 비중이 급격하게 증가하고 있다. 따라서 온라인 테스트와 진화하드웨어 등이 테스트 비용감소를 위해서 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 네트워크프로세서의 생존성을 위해서, 패킷엔진의 pipline의 각 stage사이의 clock slack borrowing을 이용해서 timing variation 문제를 자체적으로 해결할 수 있다는 것을 mixed-mode simulation을 통해서 통합 검증하였다. 또한 기존의 off-chip 진화하드웨어에 비해서 on-chip구현을 통해서 진화하드웨어의 성능향상과 메모리에 의해서 발생하는 overhead를 감소시키는 것이 가능함을 확인했다.
