The fishing vessel buyback program, that is, the project of fishing vessel reduction is a complex challenge that needs to take into consideration for both fishing resource protection and industrial restructuring. By the way, the fishing vessel buyback program in Korea is still poorly fruitful and there are few applications for the project in the country. For example, the buyback program of this nation has some problems like uncertainly set goals, conflicts among targets, no flexibility in the program implementation, low participation in the project and lack in follow-up actions. To solve these problems, this study offers the following alternatives. First, it is setting up detailed targets for fishing vessel buyback. Those targets should be what can be actually driven under policy support, such as reduction in illegal fishing, decrease in an exact number of fishing vessels and decline in fishing capacity rather than what seem to be comprehensive such as protection of coastal or offshore fishery and industrial restructuring. Second, it is taking measures for the livelihood of those who would face disadvantages due to fishing vessel reduction. Those measures providing or supporting the re-education and re-employment of fishery workers and building up systems that help the workers transfer fishing to another job. Third, it is adopting the governance system that overcomes lacks in communications between the fishing vessel buyback program and improves the performance effectiveness of that program. Here, governance means that businesses and authorities concerned in the program interact and cooperate with one another in making and implementing policies related to the project of fishing vessel reduction and assessing the results of that project. Fourth, it is taking actions for fishery reorganization after the fishing vessel buyback program. Factors that can be considered as those actions include supporting fishery workers' cost of fishing vessel reduction, decreasing and modernizing fishing fleets and improving the quality of fishing equipment. In conclusion, the fishing vessel buyback program should be prepared with comprehensive actions or measures that can cope well with a variety of problems that may be arisen from it while keeping itself on the track of its original goals.

The purpose of this study is to develop and implement a step-by-step upcycling fashion education program that can be utilized within the local community. This program aims to provide basic data by analyzing the current state of community-based upcycling projects and upcycling center programs. To achieve this, the study first examined the meaning and value of upcycling in fashion through literature research and explored upcycling projects and programs in connection with local communities. Subsequently, an upcycling fashion education program platform was developed and applied using the design thinking process. The program involved students from nine high schools in Gwangju Metropolitan City. Depending on the school's circumstances, the time and difficulty level of the upcycling education program were adjusted accordingly. A unique eco-bag making kit, using jeans developed in this study, was employed. Following the completion of the program, a satisfaction survey was conducted among 167 participating students from the high school community class. The findings indicated that the majority of students experienced an increased appreciation, attraction, and interest in upcycling products. They also demonstrated an understanding of the environmental impact of upcycling products and the distinction between upcycling and recycling. It is believed that the educational program developed in this study can promote ethical fashion and foster a sense of value-based consumption. This program can be customized and flexibly adapted to different educational levels and institutional characteristics, making it accessible to a wide range of learners.

Korea has a high proportion of self-employment. Many of them start the food business since it does not require high-techs and it is possible to start the business relatively easily compared to many others in business categories. However, the closure rate of the business is also high due to excessive competition and market saturation. Cafés and restaurants are examples of food business where the business analysis is highly important. However, for most of the people who want to start their own business, it is difficult to conduct systematic business analysis such as trade area analysis or to find information for business analysis. Therefore, in this paper, we predicted business status with simple information using Microsoft Azure Machine Learning Studio program. Experimental results showed higher performance than the number of attributes, and it is expected that this artificial intelligence model will be helpful to those who are self-employed because it can easily predict the business status. The results showed that the overall accuracy was over 60 % and the performance was high compared to the number of attributes. If this model is used, those who prepare for self-employment who are not experts in the business analysis will be able to predict the business status of stores in Seoul with simple attributes.

Purpose - This study develops a simulation model that looks at the dynamics between social capital and business performance in strategic networks to understand their behaviors in relation to each other, and to suggest dynamic relationship strategies. Research design, data, and methodology - Based on existing literature, this study identifies the complex causal loop diagram on social capital and business performance in strategic networks, and converts them into a simulation model for observing how the changes in business environment and relationship dependency affect social capital and business performance. Results - The simulation results showed that, first, the formation in social capital and business performance of networks with low relationship dependency was less affected by the changes in business environment. Second, the formation in social capital and business performance of networks with high relationship dependency was negatively impacted by the changes in business environment. In other words, higher relationship dependency strengthened the impact of changes in business environment on business performance. Conclusions - Thus, this study confirmed that in strategic networks, the changes in business environment and the degree of relationship dependency dynamically affect business performance, and that relationship dependency mediates the degree in which changes in the business environment affect business performance. The results of the simulations were further verified through actual business cases.

Software development process consists of five phases : requirement, analysis, design, implementation and testing. There is almost always a gap between the system design and implementation stages, caused by a combination of the difficulty of programming and frequent changes on the system design. The goal of this paper is to reduce the gap between system design and implementation, and we design a tool producing a application program by recognizing business logic for a more rapid and flexible developing of software. The core idea of Application Program Generator is : firstly, to recognize that business application in the same domain share business logic and presentation logic : secondly, to treat system design as persistent meta-data ; thirdly, to use the persistent meta-data to build or customize applications as required.

Well-deviced buyback programs may be detrimental to achieve sustainable fisheries. However, it is not difficult to find undesirable examples that the result of buyback program have no impact on fish stocks or the sustainability of the fishery. This paper discusses the problems and policy directions for successful restructuring of Korean marine fisheries through comparative analysis of selected cases from five main countries including Japan, Norway, Italy, Taiwan and Australia. From the analysis, this study demonstrated that Korean buyback program just pursue the reduction of boat number but passed over alleviation of the real ability in fishing industry. Although there were clear decrease of fishing effort in a certain parts of fisheries and some evidences of advancement in efficiency, it seemed hard to continue these effects because the Korean policy lacks consistency and coherence of systematic restructuring. To summary, four things are recommended for successful application of Korean buyback program; first is to establish the obvious goal of the program, second is to introduce downsizing in both fleet capacity and engine power, third is to conduct other management tools simultaneously to help resource restoration, and last, but not the least is to induce voluntary participation of fishermen providing opportunity to pursue their mutual interest.

This paper examines the efficacy of the vessel buy - back program implemented by the Korean government between 1994 and 2005. At the descriptive level, it is found that various factors of fishing efforts including power of vessels, fishing days and the number of employees increased during the program. The statistical analysis over the period 1981 to 2005 shows that the amount of weight and power of vessels tend to have a positive impact on the amount of catch with the number of vessels controlled. In particular, 1% increase in weight and power leads to $0.5%{\sim}1.4%$ and $1.0%{\sim}2.0%$ increase in catch, respectively. Therefore, the results suggest that the vessel buy - back program in Korea had contributed to reducing the catch but only as far as it reduced the weight and power of the vessels. As is consistent with the previous literature, it is indicated that the efficacy of vessel buy - back program may be limited by the fishermen's effots to increase the fishing efforts in terms of power of vessels, fishing days or number of employees.
