  • Aging is characterized by a functional decline in most physiological processes, including alterations in cellular metabolism and defense mechanisms. Increasing evidence suggests that caloric restriction extends longevity and retards age-related diseases at least in part by reducing metabolic rate and oxidative stress in a variety of species, including yeast, worms, flies, and mice. Moreover, recent studies in invertebrates - worms and flies, highlight the intricate interrelation between reproductive longevity and somatic aging (known as disposable soma theory of aging), which appears to be conserved in vertebrates. This review is specifically focused on how the reproductive system modulates somatic aging and vice versa in genetic model systems. Since many signaling pathways governing the aging process are evolutionarily conserved, similar mechanisms may be involved in controlling soma and reproductive aging in vertebrates.

  • We study an optimization problem for hyperbolic absolute risk aversion (HARA) utility function under two-factor Heston's stochastic volatility model. It is not possible to obtain an explicit solution because our financial market model is complicated. However, by using asymptotic analysis technique, we find the explicit forms of the approximations of the optimal value function and the optimal strategy for HARA utility function.

  • A non-linear numerical tidal model of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea is used to derive the mean and maximum bed stress the mean and maximum transport potential on the continental shelf. It has provided a preliminary assessment of relation between sediment transport paths and the mean and maximum bed stress distribution determined from the numerical model.

  • The ventilation theory developed by Luyten, Pedlosky and Stommel (1983) is applied to the East Sea to understand the general circulation pattern of the Intermediate Water, especially the ventilated circulation beneath the Tsushima Warm Current. The original model is slightly modified such that it takes the inflow-outflow of the Tsushima Current into consideration. Results of the model indicate that for sufficiently strong Ekman pumping, the Intermediate Water circulates cyclonically by ventilation. The Intermediate Water subducts beneath the Tsushima Warm Water through the western boundary layer. Off the western boundary layer, it turns northward, outcrops to the north by passing the polar front and continues to flow northward until it finally is absorbed by the northern boundary layer. This result seems to be compatible with some recent observations. Over the ventilated area, the transport of the Tsushima Current is negligible and most transport occurs in the shadow area where the Intermediate layer is motionless indicating that, over the deep motionless layer, the two-layered vertical structure under consideration becomes substantially single-layered.

  • Miami Isopycnic Coordinate Ocean Model is applied to the East Sea to estimate the renewal time of the upper Intermediate Water The model gives about 10 years of renewal time. Extrapolating this result to the whole water mass below, including the upper Intermediate Water, leads to about 81.4 years of renewal time, which is quite comparable to that obtained by Kim and Kim (1997) based on the recent observations. Deep winter mixing occurs in the north of the basin. The areas of the largest water mass conversion, from the upper mixed to the intermediate below, are along the periphery of the deep mixing zone. Large portion of the renewed Intermediate Water then advects along the Korean and Japanese coasts. It is concluded that the high-oxygen content Intermediate Water found off the Korean coast (Kim and Chung, 1984) is in part locally formed but mostly advected from the deep mixing zone.

  • The three-dimensional hydrodynamic numerical model of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea has been further utilised to provide S$\sub$2/,K$\sub$1/,O$\sub$1/ tidal currents distribution in addition to previously provided M$\sub$2/ tidal current distribution(Choi, 1984), especially the vertical variation of horizontal current in the region. Model results have been compared with current meter data acquired from recent China-USA Marine Sedimentation Dyamics Programme (Larsen and Cannon, 1983). Results were also used to provide maps of the S$\sub$2/,K$\sub$1/,O$\sub$1/ tidal current constants and tidal ellipses at three depths to complement previous M$\sub$2/ tidal current information.

  • This study presents a fuzzy varying coefficient regression model after deleting the outliers to improve the feasibility and effectiveness of the fuzzy regression model. The objective of our methodology is to allow the fuzzy regression coefficients to vary with a covariate, and simultaneously avoid the impact of data contaminated by outliers. In this paper, fuzzy regression coefficients are represented by Gaussian fuzzy numbers. We also formulate suitable goodness of fit to evaluate the performance of the proposed methodology. An example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of our methodology.

  • The question of what our cultural goods might have known in a major exporting market, has intrigued investigators since 2000 year. Actually, Maybe Korean cultural assets just didn't have time to get to know International or Asia market. But now, a new euphoria can be tasted, on the lips of the small but growing Korean Contents Mania, as New Korean Wave-Crust begin to welcome the priciest contents from korea. Given Asian's surging population for our entertainment contents-drama, movie, music, character, etc., and the sense of a positive response its newly international market, it is hardly surprising. Now, Korea Wave must play an important roles in our country- economy, business, specially. This paper is seeking in OSMU on Korean Contents in East-North Asian Market, and is developing about Korean Wave study model. and It also points to a different strategy for exporting cultural contents, suggesting it should be effected for model to OSMU.

  • The aims of this study was to suggest a new efficiency measurement indicator for evaluating the management efficiency of decision making units(DMUs) in the contract foodservice industry. The data envelopment analysis(DEA) model which considers multiple inputs and outputs and looking for benchmarks, was used to compare the productivity of DMUs. We considered sales, profits, and customer satisfaction as output variables and it adopted food cost, labor cost and administrative expense as input variables. The results of applying DEA revealed relatively efficient types of business and service types. The efficiency of school units was highest and the mired service type was the most efficient one. In this study the CCR model efficiency was analysed with profit and the customer satisfaction index by the matrix method. DEA efficiency was correlated with profit but there was no correlation between DEA efficiency and the customer satisfaction index.

  • The purpose of this study was to establish a model of the use-utility of cooking equipments and kitchen centers using survey data and to compare U.S.A. with Korea. The survey was conducted to identify attributes that were related to the efficiency of kitchen centers as well as equipments. Indices for the most important attributes were developed and used to compare different selections of equipment. The impact of adding an equipment item was found to vary with the attributes of the item, the degree of importance ascribed to the attributes of the work center and specific functions performed there. Similarities and differences between the U.S.A. and Korea are discussed, and implications for those who have interest in the use-utility model of cooking equipment and kitchen centers are provided.
