The attention of case management currently has been highlighted and its importance has been highly emphasized in mental heath field. At this point, We conducted a qualitative study on the experience of case managers from the Suwon Community Mental Health Center where it has implemented the ACT model. Through the result of this study, we verified feasibility of ACT model into Korea. and it has shown that assertive service and team approach has been a critical ingredients of ACT and it extended case manager's ability and brought improvement in relationship between clients and them. the clients has brought a positive changes.

The purpose of this study is to analyze a case of unit management system introduced and operated in a university hospital. The system was designed and applied to six clinical departments and centers to help to achieve the medical revenue and profit targets. The case hospital is now in the second year of the system operation. Major findings of the study are as follows; Firstly, the leadership style of the unit manager is the most important factor in management of the unit. The transformational leadership style was more effective than the transactional one. Secondly, unit manager's managerial ability is another key factor to the success or failure in achieving the responsibility targets. Thirdly, the degree of divisionalization and responsibility should be strengthened to activate both unit managers and medical specialists.

With rapid growth in the amount of data transferred on the Internet, traditional storage systems have reached the limits of their capacity and performance. SAN (Storage Area Network), which connects hosts to disk with the Fibre Channel switches, provides one of the powerful solutions to scale the data storage and servers. In this environment, the maintenance of data consistency among hosts is an important issue because multiple hosts share the files on disks attached to the SAN. To preserve data consistency, each host can execute the disk I/O whenever disk read and write operations are requested. However, frequent disk I/O requests cause the deterioration of the overall performance of a SAN cluster. In this paper, we introduce a SANtopia global buffer manager to improve the performance of a SAN cluster reducing the number of disk I/Os. We describe the design and algorithms of the SANtopia global buffer manager, which provides a buffer cache sharing mechanism among the hosts in the SAN cluster. Micro-benchmark results to measure the performance of block I/O operations show that the global buffer manager achieves speed-up by the factor of 1.8-12.8 compared with the existing method using disk I/O operations. Also, File system micro-benchmark results show that SANtopia file system with the global buffer manager improves performance by the factor of 1.06 in case of directories and 1.14 in case of files compared with the file system without a global buffer manager.

This paper expands the results of previous studies indicating that manager's ability positively affects business performance to analyze whether the degree to which the role of manager's ability improves business performance appears differently according to the characteristics of enterprises. As for the characteristics of enterprises, whether enterprises correspond to enterprises with high levels of funding constraints or late movers in the market is considered. Enterprises with high levels of funding constraints greatly require managers' roles not only for efficient use of funds but also for smooth financing. Late movers require more judgments of professional managers to overcome insufficient resources held and low profitability. In the case of enterprises with corporate characteristics with high dependency on the manager, the business performance is expected to greatly vary with the ability of the manager. The empirical analysis was conducted with listed companies from 2010 to 2014, manager's ability was measured by first measuring the efficiency of the entire enterprise through data envelopment analysis (DEA) using the methodology of Demerjian et al.(2012) and removing enterprise characteristics factors thereafter. Business performance was measured by the return on industrial fixed assets. The results of the empirical analysis indicated that the degree to which manager's ability improves business performance was higher in managerial competence enhances managerial performance in enterprises with high levels of funding constraints and late movers. Business performance is considered to have been improved further in cases where manager's ability is high because investments were made more efficiently through smooth funding. In addition, in the case of late movers in relatively poor environments, business performance was improved further because high manager's ability induced efficient decision making. In this paper, we extend the precedent study that the manager's ability improves the management performance, and confirm that the manager's ability to improve the managerial performance can be different according to the situation of the company. In addition, it is meaningful to analyze empirically whether a company's managerial ability is more important. This paper expanded the results of previous studies indicating that manager's ability improves performance to identify that the degree to which manager's ability improves business performance may appear differently according to situations in which enterprises are placed. In addition, this paper is meaningful in that it empirically analyzed what enterprises require manager's ability more importantly.

Modern cities' paradigm is rapidly changing to evolve into multi-functional spaces including living space, culture, welfare and environment. Therefore, upon these changing needs, the cultural images and the quality control became major issues in this area. This thesis will examine cultural contents development, a successful case-study, and the analysis of complex space development plan. Thereby each development case in cultural contents area will be extracted and it will seek to find out how they could make a complex cultural space. Moreover, the role and boundary of each Project Management case and Project Manager will be analyzed. The analysis showcases the importance of comprehensive and systematic management system. As a result, along with the recognition of the strong ground for Project Management and Project Manager, comprehensive planand the most effective management system for various complex cultural space development plans would be PM application which is expected to be new alternatives to improve complex space development quality.

When a fire is detected by a sensor of a fire detector, the fire is notified to the manager through the siren. However, if the manager is not indoors, prompt action may not be taken in the event of a fire. In this study, we would like to propose a platform system for fire prevention applying IoT to prevent problems that arise when building manager is absent. This paper presents the structure and operation principle of fire prevention platform system design using IoT, describes the overall system design through fire detector H/W design, micom S/W design and Android application development, and is expected to develop a system that can respond a little faster in case of fire.

This study presents a case of a visual merchandising course adopting a problem-based learning (PBL) model, as a part of shop manager training program for high school students. Various vocational training classes are actively developed for vocational high schools, yet programs in the home economics area are relatively lacking. In particular, education programs for shop manager training are urgently required due to the high demand of this job in the fashion industry. The PBL model, which reflects constructionist learning theory, is considered for this visual merchandising course in order to help develop the ability of students to creatively apply their knowledge on real-world problems through self-driven learning. For the purpose of job analysis, two problem areas were identified through interviews conducted with shop managers who work for apparel shops in department stores. Based on the results of the interviews, professors and high school teachers developed two PBL instructional modules. The developed module courses were implemented with 2 classes of vocational high school students. The learning outcome was examined through the analysis of a student survey and reflection journals. It was apparent that the PBL courses effectively attracted the interests of learners in vocational training and improved their understanding of the contents as well as cooperation skills. The results of this study indicate that implementing the PBL model for the training of store managers can contribute to the vocational training programs for high school students.
