XML-based standards such as CCD(Continuity of Care Document) and CCR(Continuity of Care Record) have been developed for representation, integration, and exchange of personal health record(PHR), and various of researches on PHR based on the standards have been conducted. These researches have developed and used CCD/CCR parsers each with their own different ways, but it can be hard to develop and update the parsers because of the structural complexity of the standards. Moreover, inter-exchange between CCD and CCR documents in the PHR-related medical information systems should be possible for the interoperability of the systems. Therefore, we proposed a designing method to develop the tools treating XML-based CCD/CCR documents. And we implemented CCD/CCR parser based on the proposed method and developed a converter from CCD to CCR using the parsers. To confirm the usefulness of the developed tool, we performed an experiment of creating CCD documents using the personal health data gathered from chronically ill patients in Kyungpook National University Hospital and of converting from the CCD documents to CCR documents.

In this study, a decision tree type of quality control (QC) method was developed to improve the temporal-spatial representation and accuracy of the visibility data being operated by the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). The quality of the developed QC method was evaluated through the application to the 3 years (2016.03-2019.02) of 290 stations visibility data. For qualitative and quantitative verification of the developed QC method, visibility and naked-eye data provided by the KMA and QC method of the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (NMI) were used. Firstly, if the sum of missing and abnormal data exceeds 10% of the total data, the corresponding point was removed. In the 2nd step, a temporal continuity test was performed under the assumption that the visibility changes continuously in time. In this process, the threshold was dynamically set considering the different temporal variability depending on the visibility. In the 3rd step, the spatial continuity test was performed under the assumption of spatial continuity for visibility. Finally, the 10-minute visibility data was calculated using weighted average method, considering that the accuracy of the visibility meter was inversely proportional to the visibility. As results, about 10% of the data were removed in the first step due to the large temporal-spatial variability of visibility. In addition, because the spatial variability was significant, especially around the fog area, the 3rd step was not applied. Through the quantitative verification results, it suggested that the QC method developed in this study can be used as a QC tool for visibility data.

In this paper, we establish the curvature estimates for a class of curvature equations with general right hand sides depending on the gradient. We show an existence result by using the continuity method based on a priori estimates. We also derive interior curvature bounds for solutions of a class of curvature equations subject to affine Dirichlet data.

This study analyzes the effects of department store loyalty programs on consumer relationship quality and the effects of consumer relationship quality on relationship continuity intention in department stores. The survey was conducted on women consumer patrons of department stores in October 2009; 381 responses were used in the data analysis. The statistical analysis methods were frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, and multiple regression analysis. As a result, the loyalty programs of department stores were classified by the conformity, shared values, benefit of use, psychological availability, and convenience. The relationship quality of consumers was classified by trust and satisfaction, and the relationship continuity intention of consumers was classified by the continual use intention and word of mouth intention in department stores. The conformity, psychological availability, and convenience of loyalty program influenced the trust of consumers; in addition, the psychological availability influenced the satisfaction of consumers in department stores. The trust and satisfaction of consumers influenced the continual use intention and the satisfaction of consumers influenced the word of mouth intention in department stores.

High availability and business continuity in the mission critical enterprise environment have been a matter of primary concern. It is desirable to implement replicated servers, duplicated devices and disaster recovery sites so that these issues are accomplished. When that happens, web browser's users may be accessed web server through a specific Uniform Resource Locator. A critical issue arises if web browser's users recklessly change the URL and access into other site. In this case, data integrity between duplicated sites may not be guaranteed. In this paper, we introduce the method of integrating the technologies of user authentication, certificate authority and business continuity and Propose the design and implementation of intelligent service access management.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how relationship benefit affect trust and commitment, and how trust and commitment affect relationship continuity intention between apparel purchaser and salesperson. For the research, it was surveyed to 230 females in their 20's, who lives in Seoul and Kyeonggi on Feb 10th to 15th in 2007. With SPSS 11.0 program, the data was analysed by frequency analysis, reliability analysis, factor analysis and multiple regression analysis. The results are as follows: First, regarding to the results of factor analysis on relationship benefit, trust and commitment, the relationship benefit factor was divided into the social, psychological and economic benefits. The trust factor was divided into the professional and considerable trust, and the commitment factor was divided into the emotional and calculative commitment. Second, as investigating how relationship benefit affect trust and commitment during purchasing apparel, social and psychological benefits affected professional trust. The psychological benefit only affected to considerable trust. Also social and psychological benefit were statically affected to emotional commitment, economic benefit and psychological benefit were affected to calculative commitment. Third, relationship continuity intention was affected to professional and considerable trust, and emotional commitment.

Purpose: This study was conducted to develop and evaluate the collaborate transitional care program for improving continuity of care in patients transferred to general wards from ICUs. Methods: 18 years and older who were hospitalized in adult intensive care units at A university affiliated medical center was recruited for the study. The experimental group for patients transferred from an ICU consisted of 33 patients and family caregivers; 34 patients and family caregivers for the control group. This study was utilized a quasi-experimental research design. The collaborative transitional care program was administered in transfer process. Data were collected two times by interviews, medical records, and telephone using questionnaires. Results: There were statistically significant differences between the two groups on relocation stress (p<.001), perceived health status (p<.001), satisfaction of caring (p=.011), physical domain (p=.022) and mental domain (p<.001) of the QOL. There were significant differences between the families of the two groups on burden (p<.001) and satisfaction of caring (p<.001). Conclusion: The collaborative transitional care programs administered in transfer process to general wards from an ICU have positive effects on patients and families' intrinsic and extrinsic factors. This program will be able to be utilized in clinical fields to improve continuity of care for patients and families between ICUs and general wards.

The main purpose of this study was to examine the impact of religious participation on the depression of elder adults in USA. Specifically, this study examined how the influence of religious participation varied according to continuity or discontinuity of participation. Data from N=1,658 adults aged 65-90 who were respondents to two waves of the U.S. National survey of Families and Households 1987-1993 were used for these analyses. Depression was measured with a 12-item (of the original 20) modified version of the CES-D (Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression). Multivariate regression models controlling for several demographic variables were estimated. Some clear evidence was found supporting activity theory and continuity theory That is, participating in a religious organization role at Time 2 but not Time 1 (T1 No - T2 Yes) and being continuously involved in religious organizations both at Time 1 and Time 2 (T1 Yes -T2 Yes) were associated with reduced depression, compared to continuous nonparticipation in religious organizations (71 No -72 No).

The development of health information technology enables people to access, view and acquire personal health record. But still, there have been a number of obstacles such as the absence of the standard to realize the ideal Personal Health Record(PHR) system. In this study, we proposed the service model that serves periodic Health Record Summary which is made by a medical specialist to people who are in the busy lives. Healthcare data from EMR in a hospital including people generate themselves at home is sent to a physician to make a medical opinion, and then it is changed into Health Level 7 Continuity of Care Document(CCD) format for interoperability. After a physician writes his opinion about patient's health condition, it will send to people by email. People who receive the health record summary data by email can save them into a USB device to view own PHR and medical comments of a physician through a computer. It will help people managing their own health condition with an opinion of a medical specialist.

As the business dependency to information systems and the frequency of the large scale disasters increase, implementing the disaster recovery center has been a common practice. However, since there has been little quantitative decision method for the distance between the data center and the disaster recovery center, the distance decision has been commonly made by qualitative guidelines. In this research, the decision method for the optimal distance between the data center and the disaster recovery center is developed, using the cost analysis including the operation cost and the expected disaster cost. An illustrative numerical example is provided.
