  • While the issue of RMB (Renminbi, Chinese Yuan) revaluation became the focus of world attention in 2003, the reform of the RMB exchange rate regime in 2005 didn't fundamentally solve the RMB appreciation problem, and even in 2008 the global financial crisis made RMB appreciation face new challenges and risks. It appears that the rise in RMB value is caused by supply exceeding demand in China's foreign exchange market; however, intrinsically it is due to the asymmetry in RMB exchange rate formation mechanism. The export tax rebates policy implemented by Chinese government is one of the leading causes of the asymmetry. This study constructs a transmission model between export tax rebates and foreign exchange rates, and applies the Granger Test to validate the causality between kernel variables based on correlative data from 1994-2011, and uses the error correction method to analyze the quantified relations of kernel variables, and finally gets the contribution rate of export tax rebates to RMB appreciation.

  • At present water crisis is not an issue of scarcity, but of access. There is a growing recognition of the need for increased access to clean water (drinkable, agricultural, industrial use). An encouraging number of innovative technologies, systems, components, processes are emerging for water-treatment, including new filtration and disinfectant technologies, and removal of organics from water. In the past decade many methods have been developed. The most important membrane-based water technologies include reverse osmosis (RO), ultrafiltration (UF), microfiltration (MF), and nanofiltration. Beside membrane based water-treatment processes, other techniques such as advanced oxidation process (AOP) have also been developed. Some unconventional water treatment technology such as magnetic treatment is also being developed.

  • The most concerning issue in these days is the energy crisis by increasing threat of global warming and depletion of natural resources. In the situations, the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) is drawing attention from many countries for the next generation's car which has higher fuel efficiency and lower environmental impact. This paper presents simulation results about the limit capacity of central power-grid which doesn't have enough surplus electric power for charging PHEVs. Therefore, this paper also presents a smart charging system that can charge the PHEVs with a function of distributing demands of charging. The smart charging system is an agent facility between the government and consumer, which can recommend the best time to charge the battery of PHEVs by the lowest energy cost. This function of choosing time-slots is the technical system for the government which wants to control the consumption rate of electric power for PHEVs. Finally, this paper presents the economic feasibility of PHEVs from the two kinds of price system, midnight electric price and home electric price.

  • Flextime system labor problem appeared by social issue going through a late 97s economic crisis. The most important thing among gravity is that act for factor who do to magnify gulf between rich and poor because do so that may polarize labor market at central part and neighborhood and makes preservation of society integration hardly social economy enemy of flextime system worker's spread. Furthermore, new economy surrounding has attribute that deepen uncertainty social bipolarization according as order by 21th century information-oriented society, globalization, knowledge base economy. Therefore, role of the country that control spread of flextime system in fixed level is more important first of all and application of employment insurance may do that have important meaning and social deliquescence.

  • The most concerning issue of these days is the energy crisis by increasing threat of dependency on foreign oil and its volatility itself. In the situations, the PHEV is drawing attention for the next generation's car which could give a chance to decrease the dependency on foreign oil. As well as, the Korean electric power infrastructure is a strategic national asset that is under utilized most of the time. With the proper changes in the operational paradigm, it could generate and deliver necessary energy to charge the PHEVs which could penetrate the market within few years. In doing so, it would reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve the economics of the electricity industry, and reduce the energy dependency. This paper investigate the technical potential and impacts of using the existing idle capacity of the electric infrastructure in conjunction with the emerging PHEVs technology to meet the majority of daily energy needs of the Korean LDV fleet.

  • Enhancing labor market flexibility is currently posted as one of the major economic policy objectives in Korea. However, the labor market effects of specific policies to achieve it have not been sufficiently investigated. This paper takes up the issue of employment protection deregulation and surveys and empirically analyzes its policy effects. Academic researches generally confirm that deregulation tends to promote labor turnover and employment of the disadvantaged groups such as the youth and female by raising the overall efficiency of the economy, but its effects on unemployment is not clear. In the Korean labor market, both job creation and destruction, and labor mobility have increased after the economic crisis of 1998, but they can not be seen as deregulation effects as the changes are confined to the temporary and daily employment whose labor markets are least regulated whereas the regular employment market remains virtally unchanged. Such results suggest that labor market deregulation need to be pursued consistently as a policy goal since the labor demand condition shift and the need for expanding regular employment necessitates it, for which detailed policy agenda for removing market inefficiencies should be carefully arranged.

  • COVID-19 is a crisis with numerous casualties. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the use of masks as an essential safety measure during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, whether or not to wear a mask is an important issue when entering and exiting public places and institutions. However, this makes face recognition a very difficult task because certain parts of the face are hidden. As a result, face identification and identity verification in the access system became difficult. In this paper, we propose a system that can detect masked face using transfer learning of Yolov5s and recognize the user using transfer learning of Facenet. Transfer learning preforms by changing the learning rate, epoch, and batch size, their results are evaluated, and the best model is selected as representative model. It has been confirmed that the proposed model is good at detecting masked face and masked face recognition.

  • 한국사회는 IMF로부터 지원을 받는 경제불황기를 경험하면서 많은 변화를 겪어왔다. 이 연구에서는 이러한 급격한 사회변동 이후에 한국사람의 성공에 대한 의식을 살펴보고자 하였다. 이러한 결과를 IMF시대 이전의 선행연구(김의철, 박영신, 1998)와 비교하므로써, 한국사람의 성공에 관련된 사회적 표상을 토착심리학적 시각에서 분석하고 종합하는데 주된 목적이 있다. 분석대상은 총 988명으로, 초 중 고 대학생 481명과 그들의 부(236명) 모(271명)로 구성된 성인 507명이었다. 분석결과, 가장 자랑스러운 성공경험으로 학생은 학업성취를, 성인은 성공적인 가정생활을 지적하였다. 한국사람들에게 성공적인 가정생활이란, 자녀의 교육적 성취와 자녀의 발전 및 화목한 가정을 주로 의미하였다. 성공에 가장 큰 도움을 준 사람은 가족이었는데, 학생의 경우는 부모, 성인의 경우는 배우자가 가장 많았다. 초 중학생에서는 부모가 특히 중요하고, 고등학생 이후는 친구의 중요성이 증가하였다. 어떠한 분야에서든 성공하기 위해 다른 사람으로부터 받은 도움으로서, 학생과 성인 모두 정서적 지원을 가장 중요하게 인식하였다. 성공의 가장 중요한 원인으로서 과반수 정도의 청소년이 자기조절을 지적하였고, 성인 남자는 자기조절을, 성인 여자는 가정환경을 더욱 중요한 것으로 보았다. 이 연구의 결과를 IMF시대 이전의 선행연구 결과와 비교해 볼 때, 국가적인 경제 위기상황 이후에 가족의 중요성에 대한 지각이 더욱 증가하였지만, 학업성취 및 성공적인 가정생활의 중요성, 사회적 지원의 제공자로서 부모와 배우자, 이러한 가족으로부터 정서적 지원의 중요성, 성공의 원인으로서 자기조절에 대한 강조와 같은 핵심적인 결과가 일치하였다. 이와같이 반복적으로 나타난 유사한 결과를 통해, 한국인의 토착적인 성공의식을 종합하고, 이러한 의식의 기저에 있는 신념 및 가치체계에 대해 논의하였다.

  • 변동성(volatility)은 투자위험을 의미하며 자산의 가격결정이나 포트폴리오 관리 및 투자전략에서 아주 중요한 역할을 한다. 이러한 변동성을 모형화하기 위한 조건부 이분산 모형으로서 전통적인 GARCH(generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic) 모형 및 확장된 형태들이 널리 사용되어지고 있으나, 금융위기와 재정위기와 같은 구조적 변화를 변동성 예측에 반영할 수 없다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 극복하기 위한 모형으로서 국면전환 GARCH(Markov regime switching GARCH) 모형을 소개하고, 한국의 일별 KOSPI 수익률에 적용하여 변동성 분석 및 예측을 실시하고, 기존의 GARCH 모형들과 비교하여 그 성능을 평가한다. 그 결과 표본 내(in-sample)의 변동성 적합도 측면에서 국면전환 GARCH 모형이 가장 우수한 성능을 보였으며, 표본 외(out-of-sample) 예측력 측면에서는 국면전환 GARCH 모형이 단기적 예측에서 좋지 않은 성능을 보였으나 장기적 예측에서 우수함을 보였다.

  • Considering Korean feminist theatre is not successful at all these days, it is needed to find the reasons of its crisis. As two Korean feminist theatre Scholars argued, the crisis owed to the structural problem from the start. That is the Korean feminist theatre started and developed depending on the imported popular feminist plays without social and cultural self-consciousness. Once the imported feminist theatres were flourished, some theatre companies pursued the commercial success blurring the feminist issues. It was resulted into the intentional ignorance in and out of the theatre society. While, some feminist plays were too inclined to the agit-prop without artistic sophistication. This essay tries to examine how the feminist theatres have been developing and what kinds of feminist performances have been made until now. And it intends to emphasize that the play text should be based on the Korean women's past, present, and future reality. Besides, they have to delve into the problem by which the Korean women were trapped in historical, social, and cultural environment. To make the women's matter the social issue at present and fur the future, the Korean feminist theatre should re-find its place as the socio-cultural forum. First, Korean theatre should cooperate with the other women's group crossing the different disciplines of the society, the culture, the politics etc . Secondly, we need to observe and watch where and how the distortion happens in women's matter, and react to correct it. Thirdly, we need to discover, to support, and to protect the women centered perspective of some playwrights as well as the performers. Co-writing or co-performing is also very positive to diversify the women's subjects. Lastly, to protect the feminist theatre against the consumerism, they need to have the financial support from the government or some civil society.
