Hospitals accomodate patients who have a high risk of infection due to reduced immunity as well as people who require surgical, medical or other treatments. Consequently, the role of clinical nurses, who come into close contact with these patients is very important in the control of nosocomial infection. This study was done to investigate and compare the level of perception of the importance of the control of nosocomial infections as well as the level of actual performance, and the level of satisfaction with the control of nosocomial infection by the clinical nurses. Thus, the purpose of this study is to contribute basic data for improving policies and educational programs to control nosocomial infection. A summary of the survey results is as follows. 1) The means of scores on all categories of the inquiry were 4. 51 for awareness 4.42 for actual performance, and 3.20 for satisfaction, of a possible high score of 5.00. 2) Correlations of the level of perception of importance between characteristics of nurses and hospital control of nosocomial infection differed significantly according to the type of hospital establishment type (p=.005), age(p=.000), career(p=.000), position (p=.002), and regular conferences on infection control in working departments(p=.003), Correlation of the level of actual performance between characteristics of nurses and hospital control of nosocomial infection diffesed significantly according to type of hospital(p=.000), hospital size (p=.009), working department(p=.000), age(p=.000), career (p=.000), school career(p=.040), position (p=.000), education experience on nosocomial infection(p=.020), and regular conferences on infection control in working department(p=.000). Correlation of degree of satisfaction between characteristics of nurses and hospital control of nosocomial infection also differed significantly according to the type of hospital establishment (p=.003), working department(p=.000), age (p=.000), and regular conferences on infection control in working department (p=.000). 3) Correlation between clinical nurses, level of perception of importance and actual level of performance for the control of nosocomial infection was relatively positive (r=.57, p=.000). Correlation between clinical nurses degree of satisfaction and level of actual performance for control of nosocomial infection was relatively positive (r=.47, p=.000). Correlation between clinical nurses, level of perception of importance and degree of satisfaction degree with the control of nosocomial infection was also relatively positive (r=.27, p=.000).

The Paper Explores The Problem Of Recommending Talks To Attend At International Research Conferences. When Researchers Participate In Conferences, Finding Interesting Talks To Attend Is A Real Challenge. Given That Several Presentation Sessions And Social Activities Are Typically Held At A Time, And There Is Little Time To Analyze All Alternatives, It Is Easy To Miss Important Talks. In Addition, Compared With Recommendations Of Products Such As Movies, Books, Music, Etc. The Recipients Of Talk Recommendations (i.e. Conference Attendees) Already Formed Their Own Research Community On The Center Of The Conference Topics. Hence, Recommending Conference Talks Contains Highly Social Context. This Study Suggests That This Domain Would Be Suitable For Social Network-Based Recommendations. In Order To Find Out The Most Effective Recommendation Approach, Three Sources Of Information Were Explored For Talk Recommendation-Whateach Talk Is About (Content), Who Scheduled The Talks (Collaborative), And How The Users Are Connected Socially (Social). Using These Three Sources Of Information, This Paper Examined Several Direct And Hybrid Recommendation Algorithms To Help Users Find Interesting Talks More Easily. Using A Dataset Of A Conference Scheduling System, Conference Navigator, Multiple Approaches Ranging From Classic Content-Based And Collaborative Filtering Recommendations To Social Network-Based Recommendations Were Compared. As The Result, For Cold-Start Users Who Have Insufficient Number Of Items To Express Their Preferences, The Recommendations Based On Their Social Networks Generated The Best Suggestions.

It is generally said that falling intonation is used at the end of a declarative sentence. However, this is not the case with all stretches of spontaneous speech which are marked in transcription as sentences. The present paper examines intonation patterns appearing at the end of declarative sentences in oral presentations, and discusses instances where falling intonation does not appear. The texts used for analysis are eight oral presentations collected at international conferences in the field of physics. Quantitative and qualitative analyses are carried out. Three major factors related to discourse structure have been found for non-occurrence of falling intonation at sentence boundaries.

For communication between heterogeneous conference systems, it is important to build a conference control protocol independent from signaling protocols. We simulate an XML-based conference control that is under consideration as a standard mechanism. We describe the framework and operations for easy implementation in heterogeneous conference systems. The simulation results show that the proposed control protocol provides a consistent service for an increasing number of conferences and participants in small to mid-size centralized conferencing.

Recently keeping pace with globalization, many international conferences and athletic games are being held in Korea. After 911 terror in New York in 2001, Korean government dispatched Zaytun Division in Iraq and this fact has also led to voice concerns that Korea should be prepared to protect from biological terrors as soon as possible. It is important to develop the bioterrorism emergency medical training for public health students including paramedic in Korea. So I propose the development of bioterrorism education curriculum.

Norwegian technology related to preinvestigations, planning, design and construction of large underground caverns is wellknown worldwide. However, so far this technology is only slightly verified through scientiffic reports and documentation. The "Rock cavern stadium" research program is an interdisciplinary program related to the ongoing building and future use of Gjovik Olympic Subsite which is the largest cavern in the world for public purposes with a span of 61 meters and a height of 25 meters. The estimated budget for this program is about USD 4 million which is made possible through grants from The Royal Norwegian Council for Scientific and Industrial Research as well as through contributions from Norwegian and Swedish companies that are participating. The program is carried out in collaboration with The Foundation for Scientific and Industrial Research at the Norwegian Institute of Technology. The Norwegian Geotechnical Institute and The Eastern Norway Research Center. The research program will continue until the end of 1994 to ensure that input comes from a full period of use in this stadium with different activities like exhibitions, conferences, concerts etc being included as verification through full-scale measurements and observations. The research program has five subtasks. Three of these are related to subjects like Energy consumption. HVAC installations. Fire safety design, Engineering geology and Rock mechanics, Environmental aspects. The fourth subtask is concerned with the collection of basic data, results and experience from these three subtasks to provide a basis for national Norwegian guidelines related to this interdisciplinary subject area. The guidelines will first be presented as a manual for planning and engineering purposes. The realization of this research program is a unique opportunity to enhance the expertise that has been acquired from this cavern stadium. By involving research in this extraordinary project from the excavation and building phase to its subsequent use. this will give the participants know-how and expertise which is very much in demand internationally. The coordination of the international activities between the participants as well as preparation of participations and presentations in international conferences and symposium are included in the fifth task of this national research program.

In the present, as standards has been considered as a strategic method, the numerous conferences and seminars related to standards have been held. The limitation, however, of time and space and the absence of the associated schedule information prevents people who need information from them horn participating in the all seminars and conferences in which they want to take part. furthermore after having attended there, it is difficult to obtain the well-structured information about the seminar or conference, unless he or she meet the authorities concerned or the person who presided a particular seminar or conference, and in the case of a large-sized seminar, there is the problem that he or she present himself at a place cant participate in the other seminar or conference at the same time. To resolve these problems, we want to implement Virtual Seminar Service System on Web in order to provide moving picture including data related to standards with the public regardless of time and space. This paper describes the related based-technologies to develop web-based virtual seminar service system also including the basic design and the result of implementation.
