Greater use of mobile phone devices seems inevitable because the health industry and cancer care are facing challenges such as resource constraints, rising care costs, the need for immediate access to healthcare data of types such as audio video texts for early detection and treatment of patients and increasing remote aids in telemedicine. Physicians, in order to study the causes of cancer, detect cancer earlier, act in prevention measures, determine the effectiveness of treatment and specify the reasons for the treatment ineffectiveness, need to access accurate, comprehensive and timely cancer data. Mobile devices provide opportunities and can play an important role in consulting, diagnosis, treatment, and quick access to health information. There easy carriage make them perfect tools for healthcare providers in cancer care management. Key factors in cancer care management systems through a mobile phone health approach must be considered such as human resources, confidentiality and privacy, legal and ethical issues, appropriate ICT and provider infrastructure and costs in general aspects and interoperability, human relationships, types of mobile devices and telecommunication related points in specific aspects. The successful implementation of mobile-based systems in cancer care management will constantly face many challenges. Hence, in applying mobile cancer care, involvement of users and considering their needs in all phases of project, providing adequate bandwidth, preparation of standard tools that provide maximum mobility and flexibility for users, decreasing obstacles to interrupt network communications, and using suitable communication protocols are essential. It is obvious that identifying and reducing barriers and strengthening the positive points will have a significant role in appropriate planning and promoting the achievements of mobile cancer care systems. The aim of this article is to explain key points which should be considered in designing appropriate mobile health systems in cancer care as an approach for improving cancer care management.

본 연구는 중소 벤처기업이 보유하고 있는 자원뿐만 아니라 자원을 획득하기 위한 노력(intent to access resources from others)이 자원이 부족한 중소벤처기업의 성장 및 생존에 매우 중요한 영향을 미치고 있음을 정량적 자료의 분석과 사례연구를 통해서 확인하였다. 특히 중소 벤처기업의 자원에서 매우 중요한 역할을 하는 기술자원의 확보 (Itami, 1987)가 어떻게 기업의 성장 및 생존에 영향을 미치는지를 살펴보았으며, 세계화의 관점(international perspective)에서는 세계화를 통한 시장확대를 한 기업들이 기업에게 필요한 독특한 자원과 능력을 확보하게 되고, 이 확보된 자원과 능력이 기업의 생존 및 성장에 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 중소 벤처기업이 성장하고 생존하기 위해서는 자원의 보유뿐만이 아니라 부존 자원을 확보하기 위한 노력 즉, 전략적 제휴, M&A 등을 통한 자원획득 전략과 세계화를 통한 시장 확대가 성장 및 생존에 필수조건임을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 본 연구의 인터뷰에 참여한 25개 기업 중 성공적인 세계화를 이룬 경우는 30% 미만이었으며, 자원확보를 위한 전략적 제휴 및 M&A, 대기업과의 공동 연구개발 등을 진행, 세계화 추진에 여러 가지 애로사항이 있는 것으로 파악되었다. 공동개발, 제휴 등의 협력을 바탕으로 한 성공적 세계시장으로의 진출을 해결할 수 있는 대안으로 본 연구자들은 유기적 협력체 형성 즉, 소벤처 생태계의 조성 및 활성화가 필요함을 강조하였다. 최근 글로벌 시장에서의 경쟁은 개별기업 간 경쟁에서 기업 네트워크 간 경쟁으로 변화되고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 개별 벤처기업의 단독 해외시장의 진출은 매우 위험한 전략이라고 할 수 있으며 지속성장을 위해서는 선도기업과 초기 벤처기업 간 상생 협력 체계를 구축하여 해외시장에 동반 진출해야 할 필요가 있다.

e-revolution makes a lot of changes in the methodology all over the world. That is, the theory of real time showing helps people to access audio and visual wherever and whenever they are. In the pst computers were considered as only tools which could make us work easily. However, the meaning of computer is changing with e-revolution nowadays. Computers are not just computers as they were; they have done a lot of things which we thought impossible and they will do in the future as well. This new wave encourages people who are teaching the design to use computers whatever they do. For example, instead of using pencil and a drafting board, most people in the design field work with monitors, mouse and plotter. Therefore, most people who are in the design field need to have the ability of computer skills. They have to use computers not only in their class but also in their office. However, if we use computers for visual presenting in the class, it will not be enough to catch the e-revolution. That is, we should work with computers in the creative and conceptual design such as the using of the design information and the applying digital techniques in the early stage of the work. The purpose of this study is to show how to work with computers in the spacial design process especially th using of the DIS(Design Information System) and the applying digital techniques in the early stage of the work.

In case that limited resources can be mobilized, non-structural countermeasures such as 'monitoring using Information and Communication Technology might be one of solutions to mitigate disaster risks. Having established the monitoring system, operational and maintenance costs to maximize the effectiveness might trouble the authority concerned or duty attendant who is in charge. In this respect, "Guerrilla Sensor" would be very cost effective because of the inherent mobility characteristic. The sensor device with the IRIS camera and GPS (Global Positioning System) equipped, is basically battery-operated and communicates with WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access). It has a strong advantage of capabilities for 'Disaster Response' with immediate and prompt action on the spot, making the best use of IoT (Internet of Things), especially with the mobile web. This paper will explain how the sensor system works in real-time GIS (Geographic Information System) pinpointing the exact location of the abnormal movement/ground displacement and notifying the registered users via SMS (Short Message Service). Real time monitoring with early warning and evaluation of current situations with LBS (Location Based Service), live image and data information can help to reduce the disaster impact. Installation of Guerrilla sensor for a real site application at Gimcheon, South Korea is also reported.

The modern era of water quality modeling in the United States began in the 1960s. Pushed by advances in computer technology as well as environmental sciences, water quality modeling evolved through five broad periods: (1) initial model development with mainframe computers (1960s - mid 1970s), (2) model refinement and generalization with minicomputers (mid 1970s - mid 1980s), (3) model standardization and support with microcomputers (mid 1980s - mid 1990s), (4) better model access and performance with faster desktop computers running Windows and local area networks linked to the Internet (mid 1990s - early 2000s), and (5) model integration and widespread use of the Internet (early 2000s - present). Improved computer technology continues to drive improvements in water quality models, including more detailed environmental analysis (spatially and temporally), better user interfaces and GIS software, more accessibility to environmental data from on-line repositories, and more robust modeling frameworks linking hydrodynamics, water quality, watershed and atmospheric models. Driven by regulatory needs and advancing technology, water quality modeling will continue to improve to better address more complicated water bodies and pollutant types, and more complicated management questions. This manuscript describes historical trends in water quality model development in the United States, reviews current efforts, and projects promising future directions.

Objective : Lumbar spinal stenosis is a common degenerative spine disease that requires surgical intervention. Currently, there is interest in minimally invasive surgery and various technical modifications of decompressive lumbar laminectomy without fusion. The purpose of this study was to present the author's surgical technique and results for decompression of spinal stenosis. Methods : The author performed surgery in 57 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis between 2006 and 2010. Data were gathered retrospectively via outpatient interviews and telephone questionnaires. The operation used in this study was named central decompressive laminoplasty (CDL), which allows thorough decompression of the lumbar spinal canal and proximal two foraminal nerve roots by undercutting the lamina and facet joint. Kyphotic prone positioning on elevated curvature of the frame or occasional use of an interlaminar spreader enables sufficient interlaminar working space. Pain was measured with a visual analogue scale (VAS). Surgical outcome was analyzed with the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Data were analyzed preoperatively and six months postoperatively. Results : The interlaminar window provided by this technique allowed for unhindered access to the central canal, lateral recess, and upper/lower foraminal zone, with near-total sparing of the facet joint. The VAS scores and ODI were significantly improved at six-month follow-up compared to preoperative levels (p<0.001, respectively). Excellent pain relief (>75% of initial VAS score) of back/buttock and leg was observed in 75.0% and 76.2% of patients, respectively. Conclusion : CDL is easily applied, allows good field visualization and decompression, maintains stability by sparing ligament and bony structures, and shows excellent early surgical results.

In this paper, we explore the historical development and revolutionary impact of music in mass media across various forms, including radio, television, film, and digital platforms. The evolution of music in mass media reflects significant technological and cultural shifts over the past century. From the early days of radio to the advent of digital streaming, music has played a crucial role in shaping the types of mass media. Early radio broadcasts in the 1920s relied on live performances and recordings to captivate audiences, establishing music as a central element of media content. The rise of television in the 1950s brought new opportunities for music integration, with theme songs, variety shows, and music videos becoming staples of TV programming. The film industry further revolutionized the use of music, with iconic scores enhancing cinematic storytelling and emotional depth. The digital revolution of the late 20th century introduced new formats and services, expanding access to music and transforming consumption patterns. Recently, streaming platforms and social media allow for personalized music experiences and direct artist-fan interactions. Through an analysis of technological advancements, this study highlights the integral role of music in enhancing narrative, evoking emotions, and creating cultural identities. We present our understanding of this evolution to provide insights into future trends and potential innovations in the integration of music with mass media, including the use of artificial intelligence and virtual reality to create immersive auditory experiences.

우리나라 초기 개신교 선교사에 대한 역사는 19세기 말 쇄국정치가 막을 내리고 서구문명에 대한 문이 열리면서 외국인 선교사들이 의사 혹은 교사 등의 전문가 신분으로 들어와 활동하면서 시작되었다. 이러한 선교사들의 기록물은 단순한 종교적인 가치를 넘어 우리나라 근대 역사, 정치, 경제, 사회를 새로운 시각으로 조명할 수 있는 중요한 사료로 평가되고 있다. 하지만 초기 선교사 자료의 역사적인 가치는 인정하면서도 이러한 자료를 수집하고 보존하며 접근을 용이하게 할 수 있는 정책이나 방안에 대한 체계적인 시도는 현재까지 매우 미비한 것으로 나타나고 있다. 보고서, 서적, 정기간행물, 일기, 편지, 사진 등의 다양한 형태를 띠고 있는 초기선교사 자료는 현재 이들을 파송한 선교회, 신학대학, 정부기관, 도서관, 박물관, 연구소, 선교사 가족 등에 산재되어 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 이러한 초기 외국인 선교사 자료에 대한 현황조사 및 전문가 심층면담을 통해 이들 자료의 아카이브 현황과 향후 체계화된 디지털 아카이브 시스템 구축에 필요한 기초 자료를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 본 연구의 범위는 우리나라에 개신교 선교사가 처음 들어오기 시작한 1800년대부터 일본강점기 이전 1910년으로 제한하였다.

The objectives of the current experiment were to study the response of the growth performance of early finishing gilts to different net energy (NE) concentrations in diets, and to compare the NE values of diets between calculated NE values and measured NE values using French and Dutch CVB (Centraal Veevoederbureau; Central Bureau for Livestock Feeding) NE systems. In a metabolism trail, the NE concentrations in five diets used for the growth trial were determined based on digestible nutrient concentrations, digestible energy, and metabolizable energy using a replicated $5{\times}5$ Latin square design with 10 barrows (initial body weight [BW], $39.2{\pm}2.2kg$). In a growth trial, a total of 60 early finishing gilts (Landrace${\times}$Yorkshire; initial BW, $47.7{\pm}3.5kg$) were allotted to five dietary treatments of 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, and 12.0 MJ NE/kg (calculated, as-is basis) with 12 replicate pens and one pig per pen in a 42-d feeding experiment. The NE and amino acid (AA) concentrations in all diets were calculated based on the values from NRC (2012). Ratios between standardized ileal digestible AA and NE concentrations in all diets were closely maintained. Pigs were allowed ad libitum access to feed and water. Results indicated that calculated NE concentrations in diets (i.e., five dietary treatments) were close to measured NE concentrations using French NE system in diets. The final BW was increased (linear and quadratic, p<0.05) with increasing NE concentrations in diets. Furthermore, average daily gain (ADG) was increased (linear and quadratic, p<0.01) with increasing NE concentrations in diets. There was a quadratic relationship (p<0.01) between average daily feed intake and NE concentrations in diets. Feed efficiency (G:F) was also increased (linear, p<0.01) as NE concentrations in diets were increased. The NE intake per BW gain (kcal NE/kg of BWG) was increased (linear, p<0.01) with increasing NE concentrations in diets that were predicted from both French and Dutch CVB NE systems. Linear regression indicated that predictability of daily NE intake from the BW of pigs was very low for both French ($R^2$, 0.366) and Dutch CVB ($R^2$, 0.374) NE systems. In conclusion, increasing NE concentrations in diets increase BW, ADG, G:F, and NE intake per BW gain of early finishing gilts. The BW of early finishing gilts is not a good sole variable for the prediction of daily NE intake.

말기 신부전 환자의 생명 유지를 위한 혈액투석 치료에 있어서 지속적으로 개존상태가 유지되고 충분한 혈액이 관류되는 투석 경로의 확보는 매우 중요하다. 동정맥루 조성술 시행 후 조기 폐쇄로 인해 투석을 시행하지 못하는 경우, 환자는 경정맥 또는 대퇴정맥 등의 중심 정맥 삽관을 반복적으로 시행 받아 혈액투석을 유지해야 하며 경제적, 시간적 손실을 감수해야 하는 어려움을 겪게 된다. 대상 및 방법: 자가 혈관을 이용한 동정맥루 조성술에 있어 조기개존율에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하고, 이를 향상시키기 위해서 2002년 6월부터 2003년 5월까지 1년 간 말기 신부전 환자에게 시행한 총 85예의 동정맥루 수술 중 두부정맥(cephalic vein)과 요골동맥(radial artery)의 단측문합(end-to-side anastomisis)을 시행한 49예를 대상으로 임상분석을 하였다. 걸과: 연구대상 49예에서 조기개존율은 79.6%였다. 환자의 나이나 성별, 고혈압과 당뇨병 유무에 따른 개존율의 차이는 없었으며 환자의 체질량지수 및 고혈압과 당뇨의 유병기간, 술 전 듀플렉스 검사로 측정한 요골동맥의 직경에 따른 조기개존율의 차이는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다. 수술 전 듀플렉스 검사로 측정한 두부정맥의 직경과 수술 시 측정한 동정맥루의 혈류량이 조기개존율과 유의한 양의 상관관계를 나타내었고, 특히 혈관직경 2.7mm가 초과되는 군에서는 조기 폐쇄 없이 개존율이 100%로 유지되었으며 동정맥루의 혈류량이 100mL/min 이하인 군에서는 조기개존율 33.3%로 100 mL/min초과인 군의 82.2%와 비교할때 유의하게 조기개존율이 낮았다. 결론: 동정맥루에 사용되는 정맥의 직경은 개존율과 밀접한 관련이 있어 가능한 한 직경이 큰 정맥을 선택해야 하며 연구에 따라 다양한 기준이 보고되어 왔으나 보다 정확한 예후 판단을 위해서는 정맥의 직경뿐 아니라 혈관 유출로의 혈류와 협착상태 등에 대한 파악이 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서 측정한 수술 시 동정맥루의 혈류량을 기준으로 판단할때, 100 mL/min 이하의 혈류량을 나타내는 radiocephalic fistula에서는 혈류량 감소의 원인을 찾아 교정술을 시행하고 그 이후에도 혈류량이 증가하지 않을 경우 다른 부위의 혈관 또는 인조혈관의 사용을 고려하여야만 할 것이다.
