R&D projects for product development are crucial for ventures' growth and success. Current study summarizes existing studies that identify the relationship between startup ventures' R&D department, R&D investment, and R&D cooperation on product development performance, and highlights the effects of business model as well as the roles of R&D activities for product development project that have been traditionally emphasized. In order to consider the effects of business models that were not previously available, the effects of these factors on product development performance were comprehensively analyzed. The research results with 180 venture cases surveyed on venture companies in the growth stage in Korea, showed that the effect of product development project activities measured by R&D department, R&D investment and R&D cooperation on product development performance is not evident. However, the effect of business model on product development time and product development performance measured by product innovation was confirmed. In particular, it was found that the clarity and uniqueness of the business model interacted with the R&D investment to shorten the product development time and directly increase the innovativeness of the developed product. Based on these analysis results, the implications of this study, limitations of the study, and the future research directions were described.

Coffee consumption has been increased all around world as well as in South Korea. Coffee by-products occurred from the coffee consumption also have been rapidly increased, but the technology and methods to handle the by-product have not been much developed, resulting the severe environmental problems in soil and water. In order to solve this environmental problem, using the coffee by-product, eco-friendly and cheap methods for the recycling have been actively discussed and suggested. In this article, we discussed the types and characters of the coffee by-product and investigated the trend about the methods for utilizing the coffee by-product. In addition, we figured out the current status of coffee waste in Seoul, South Korea and discussed plans that Seoul government is working on to handle the coffee waste.

This paper aims to examine the status of sizing specifications for disposable sanitary pads on the market and to offer information on product design that reflect the requests of consumer by gathering opinion through the practical experience of consumers. Seventy-six varieties of sanitary pads on market are measured and the evaluations of wearing comfort were investigated by the questionnaire and interview for sixty three varieties of sanitary pads. As a result, they were classified into five sizes related with length but vaguely related with thickness and width. Thickness is distinguished by the compressibility that is marked as slim or ultra slim by the same brand. However, there is no sizing consistency for all products. The result shows that there is some confusion for consumers to choose desired sizes, In addition, the perception of wearing is categorized into four factors that are product performance, size and fit, wearing feeling and margin of action, and adhesive property and wrapping. The manufacturing specifications for the sanitary pads on domestic market, the requests of consumers for sanitary pad design modifications, and proposals for follow-up studies were figured out through this research.

Immobilized Candida antarctica lipase was used to catalyze the separation of ketoprofen into its components by means of esterification followed by the enzymatic hydrolysis of the ester product. In this study, ketoprofen underwent esterification to ethanol in the presence of isooctane. When the reaction was complete, 58.3% of the ketoprofen had been transformed into an ester. The ketoprofen remaining in solution after the reaction was complete consisted primarily of its S-enantiomer (83.0%), while the 59.4% of the ketoprofen component of the ester consisted of its R-enantiomer. We then subjected the ester product to enzymatic hydrolysis in the presence of the same enzyme and produced a ketoprofen product rich in the R-enantiomer; 77% of this product consisted of the R-enantiomer when 50% of the ester had been hydrolyzed, and 90% of it consisted of the R-enantiomer when 30% of the ester had been hydrolyzed. By contrast, the R-enantiomer levels only reached approximately 42 and 65%, respectively, when 50 and 30% of the racemic ester was hydrolyzed under the same conditions.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between online apparel impulse buying behavior and product category/price of apparel items. The data were collected using an online survey with a structured questionnaire and a total of 731 responses were retained. Two hypotheses were put forward to test the relationships among the variables. Test of H1 showed that some product categories purchased by the respondents in the impulse purchase group were significantly different from those bought by the non-impulse purchase group. Categories such as shirt/blouse and belt were bought more frequently by the respondents in the impulse purchase group whereas shoes were bought more frequently by those in the non-impulse purchase group. The respondents in the impulse purchase group bought more items that cost less than $25 than those in the non-impulse purchase group. Based on the results, H1 and H2 were supported. From the results of the study, it is concluded that product categories and product price are closely related to the online apparel impulse buying behavior.

This thesis is purposed on developing security product co-evaluation statistics administrate program which is can administrate or analysis CC accreditation product using by DEVS modeling via portal site of member of CCRA. Via developing security product evaluation statistics administrate program, it can analysis the trend of all countries of the world in many ways, and noticed the ways of evaluation and accreditation of most countries via scheme analysis. Except this, it can analysis the situation of accreditation trend of any countries via data analysis of ICCC 2009. Also, For trend analysis to evaluation technique of CCRA member, it analyzed up to date technology and policy of the evaluation organization and the Certification Authority of most countries. And it peformed analysis the most trend of information security of evaluation authorization in CCRA member countries. In this program, It provide the function of trend statistics analysis which can statically analyzed the evaluation accreditation trends of most countries and automatical statistics by categorization ( by Product, Class and statistics in national) and report creation functions which can easily extraction and use the needed data. It has been updated the related informations until latest accredited product using by CC(Common Criteria) portal home page's data.

People write reviews of numerous products or services on the Internet, in their blogs or community bulletin boards. These unstructured data contain important emotions and opinions about the author's product or service, which can provide important information for future product design or marketing. However, this text-based information cannot be evaluated quantitatively, and thus they are difficult to apply to mathematical models or optimization problems for product design and improvement. Therefore, this study proposes a method to quantitatively extract user's opinion or preference about a specific product or service by utilizing a lot of text-based information existing on the Internet or online. The extracted unstructured text information is decomposed into basic unit words, and positive rate is evaluated by using existing emotional dictionaries and additional lists proposed in this study. This can be a way to effectively utilize unstructured text data, which is being generated and stored in vast quantities, in product or service design. Finally, to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, a case study was conducted using movie review data retrieved from a portal website. By comparing the positive rates calculated by the proposed framework with user ratings for movies, a guideline on text mining based evaluation of unstructured data is provided.

The purpose of this paper is to construct a ring with unity under the derived cup product on the cochain groups of the inverse system and an isomorphism which is useful as the computation of a derived group by deleting the suitable terms in the directed set D. Moreover we apply these results to the K-theory.
