The purpose of this study is to examine the dynamic relationships among locus of control as a individual traits, the three organizational equity factors(distributive equity, procedural equity and interactional equity), individual attitudes and behaviors(job satisfaction, organizational commitment and turnover intention). In this study, we designed research model based on extensive literature review and tested each hypothesis through empirical analysis of which single public organization was the subject. The results are as follows : locus of control negatively affect all the three equity factors. And distributive equity positively affect job satisfaction whereas both procedural equity and interactional equity positively affect organizational commitment. Also only organizational commitment not job satisfaction positively affect turnover intention. The various implications to manage organizational equity, job satisfaction and organizational commitment and the limitations of the study and directions for future research were discussed.

Influenza A viruses periodicall y cause worldwide epidemics, or pandemics, with high rates of illness and death. A pandemic can occur at any time, with the potential to cause serious illness, death and social and economic disruption throughout the world. Historic evidence suggests that pandemics occurred three to four times per century. In the last century there were three influenza pandemics. The circumstances still exist for a new influenza virus with pandemic potential to emerge an d spread. The unpredictability of the timing of the next pandemic is underlined by the occurrence of several large outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza since the early 1980s. In 1999, the World Health Organization published the Influenza pandemic plan. The role of WHO and guidelines for national and regional planning. And in 2005, WHO revised the global influenza preparedness plan for new national measures before and during pandemics. This document outlines briefly the Korean Centers for Disease Control's plan for responding to an influenza pandemic. According to the new pandemic phases of WHO, we set up the 4 national levels of preparedness and made guidelines for preventing and control the epidemics in each phase. And also we described the future plans to antiviral stockpiles and pandemic vaccine development.

PLCs are vital components of modern automation systems, which have penetrated into almost every industry. Many industries have a demand for facilitation of PLC programming. In this study, a programning system for sequential control is developed on a personal computer. This programming system consists of two main parts, a GRAFCET editor and a GRAFCET compiler. The GRAFCET editor enables us to model an actual sequential process by a GRAFCET diagram. This GRAFCET editor is developed by the menu-driven method based on specific menus and graphic symbols. The GRAFCET compiler consists of two parts, a GRAFCET parser and a code generator. The possible errors in a drawn GRAFCET diagram are first checked by the GRAFCET parser which generates finally an intermediate code from a verified CRAFCET diagram. Then the intermediate code is converted into a control code of an actual sequential controller by the code generator. To show the usefulness of this programming system, this system is applied to a pneumatically controlled handling robot. For this robot, a Z-80 microprocessor is used as the actual sequential controller.

The simultaneous operation of multiple UAV's makes it possible for us to raise the mission accomplishment and cost efficiency. For this we need an easily scalable control algorithm, and swarm intelligence having the characteristics such as flexibility, robustness, decentralized control and self-organization comes into the spotlight as a practical substitute. In this paper the features of swarm intelligence are described, and various research results are introduced which show that the application of swarm intelligence to the control of multiple UAV's enables the missions of surveillance, path planning, target tracking and attack to be accomplished efficiently by simulations and tests.

Recent findings indicate that mechanical strain (deformation) exerted by the extracellular matrix modulates activation of airway smooth muscle cells. Furthermore, cytoskeletal organization in airway smooth muscle appears to be dynamic, and subject to modulation by receptor activation and mechanical strain. Mechanosensitive modulation of crossbridge activation and cytoskeletal organization may represent intracellular feedback mechanisms that limit the shortening of airway smooth muscle during bronchoconstriction. Recent findings suggest that receptor-mediated signal transduction is the primary target of mechanosensitive modulation. Mechanical strain appears to regulate the number of functional G-proteins and/or phospholipase C enzymes in the cell membrane possibly by membrane trafficking and/or protein translocation. Dense plaques, membrane structures analogous to focal adhesions, appear to be the primary target of cytoskeletal regulation. Mechanical strain and receptor-binding appear to regulate the assembly and phosphorylation of dense plaque proteins in airway smooth muscle cells. Understanding these mechanisms may reveal new pharmacological targets for control1ing airway resistance in airway diseases.

I have tried to find a concept among different perspectives on knowledge management. A practical framework of the enhancement of firm's competence through knowledge accumulations was developed as follows: First, All human factors should be armed with information based knowledge and leaded by chief knowledge officer. Second, Learning organization is necessary to develope knowledge creation. Third, Organization has to be controlled by information based control system for the effective linkage of several sort of information. Fourth, Shared culture of knowledge internalized by all members must help organization generate and articulate a new form of knowledge. Finally, Several information technologies and instrumental system may faster creation of knowledge. Especially, in this paper, focused on role of knowledge-based people. It is new view of knowledge-based management studies.

Regarding to foodservice industry, menu analysis of foodservice has two significant meanings. One is to elevate a satisfaction to customer's desires, the other is to find a menu which can maximize profits to restaurant operator. In these reasons, Menu organization methods were developed and has been constantly developing by many researchers. Specially, Since computerization has been introduced in the foodservice business, menu organization methods has been made a growth. On the other hand, menu organization methods has not been developed by lack of recognition of foodservice-worker. methods for menu analysis focused on profits and preference out of foodservice operation have a lot of limits. That reason is why factors of internal and external influence are more than other industries. In the future, foodservice industry should improve sales-performance through the menu analysis after due consideration and need to develop methods for menu analysis. In the conclusion, development of foodservice indusrty can be expected if menu development and menu control should be go on through the menu analysis.

To improve quality of an product We have adopted new approaches such as SPC(Statistical Process Control), CIM(compure Integreated Munufactture), QDF(Quality Development Function), etc. In spite of using these approaches, an organization should fail to achive its true goal if that organization didn't developed its cooperative quality culture which is the total of collective and shared learning of quality-related values as the organization have developed its capacity to survive in its external environment and to manage its own internal affairs. In this paper, I analyzed the current quality culture of Korea Telecom and tried to suggest how Korea Telecom develop its service quality based on the quality culture.

The effects of pH values, temperature and some elements on the amylolytic activity and stability of the purified S. aureofacienc 77 amylase were studied in this investigation. The purified enzyme showed its maximum activity at pH 6 within 8 min incubation at $40^{\circ}C$. None of the tested 6 metals showed on stimulatory effect on the enzymatic activity, $Fe^{+++}$, $Cu^{++}$ and $Hg^{++}$ at high dose inhibited the enzyme activity to great extent as compared with $Zn^{++}$, $Mn^{++}$ and $Fe^{++}$ whih gave less effect in this respect. The enzyme liquor was found to be thermolabile, since it lost completely its activity after 4 days incubation under room temperature and showed maximum activity during this period as a result of additions of $Ca^{++}$and NaCl, Gradual reduction was however recorded until activity reached 30% after 60 days of incubation.
