A clinical evaluation was performed on 17 cases of the cardiac and great vessel injuries above the subclavian vessel at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Chungnam National University Hospital from April, 1980 to September, 1986. The results were as follows: 1. Sex distribution were 13 cases in male and 4 cases in female. In age range, second and third decades occupied in about 65% of total cases. 2. Modes of injury were penetrating wound is 14 cases and nonpenetrating wound in 3 cases. The stab wounds by knife were most frequent. 3. Time interval from injury to operation was mean 103 minutes. 4. Surgical approaches were performed with thoracotomy in 9 cases, median sternotomy in 3 cases and direct incision above the wound. 5. Sites of injury were heart in 10 cases and great vessel in 7 cases. The right ventricular injury was most common as 7 cases. 6. Operative procedures were performed with simple closure, vascular graft anastomosis and ligation. There was no postoperative death.

The present study construct a new technique that can evaluate diverse rural policies, which have been applied to the rural development programs at the village level. The method incorporates spatial econometrics models with a decomposition method that has little been utilized before. We applies the technique to evaluate the rural development programs that have been carried out by the Korea Forest Service and. Korea Rural Development Agency. The technique proved to be quite useful in that the technique efficiently separate the direct effect caused by the government policy from the effect explained by the endowment effect such as regional or area characteristics, and residual effect that cannot be identified by the models. The present study concludes with suggesting more quantitative methods need to be developed to evaluate diverse government policy programs, which enables us to discern correct policy effects.

This paper aims to review and analyse the introduction process of performance management system(PMS) in the R&D sector. It also examines initial problems and future policy directions of the new system. Theory part deals with various approaches to the PMS and the relation between research evaluation and performance management. The paper then describes how the PMS has been introduced in the National R&D Program by the MOST in terms of the contents of strategic goal, performance goal and performance indicator together with their development process. After this, it captures problems arising in the initial phase and then suggests how they should be solved on the ministerial and cross-ministerial level. Discussed are following topics: lack of strategic planning, grouping of heterogeneous sub-programs, duplication between the OMS and other existing research or performance evaluation. The paper finally suggests policy implications using the logic model which has been developed in a series of recent international conferences.

The consulting internist will encounter patients with psychiatric symptoms and those who take psychotropic medications in many settings. The internist must loam to feel comfortable interacting with patients who display psychiatric symptoms. while maintaining an open and unprejudiced attitude toward their evaluation. The proper delineation of psychiatric disorders from normal emotional reactions resets on a careful history, a mental status evaluation. and a knowledge of psychiatric syndromes. Many physicians tend erroneously to view behavioral changes only in a psychological framework Abrupt changes in behavior, personality, mood. or ability to function should be evaluated for possible organic causes. Then, the internists should take their consultation to psychiatrists and freely discuss psychologic problems of the patients.

Korea construction industry needs to secure its competitiveness in global construction markets and to urgently find out the proper approaches in consideration of the current situation of Korean construction enterprises and environmental changes in the international market. Korea has national plan to improve the competitive level of the construction industry. Expecially, Government is trying to build the global system in construction industry. But there are no the related national competitive date. Therefore, this paper suggested national competitive indicators and development direction in construction industry. And this research has presented the competitiveness analysis of construction industry with the consideration of condition of infrastructure, transparency and technological competitiveness.

UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) has become one of the most popular military/commercial aerial robots in the new millenium. In spite of all the advantages that UAVs inherently have, it is not an easy job to develop a UAV because it requires very systematic and complete approaches in full development envelop. The ground test & evaluation phase has the utmost importance in the sense that a well developed system can be best verified on the ground. In addition, many of the aircraft crashes in the flight tests were resulted from the incomplete development procedure. In this research, a verification procedure of the whole airborne integrated system was conducted including the flight management sys...

A traditional approach to the prediction of economic and financial variables takes the form of statistical models to summarize past observations and to project them into the envisioned future. Over the past decade, an increasing number of organizations has turned to the use of neural networks. To date, however, many spheres of interest still lack a systematic evaluation of the statistical and neural approaches. One of these lies in the prediction of corporate bond yields for Korea. This paper reports on a comparative evaluation of ARIMA models and neural networks in the context of interest rate prediction. An additional experiment relates to an integration of the two methods. More specifically, the statistical model serves as a filter by providing estimtes which are then used as input into the neural network models.

This paper presents two kinds of new approaches, one of which is concerned with recognition of emotional speech such as anger, happiness, normal, sadness, or surprise. The other is concerned with emotion recognition in speech. For the proposed speech recognition system handling human speech with emotional states, total nine kinds of prosodic features were first extracted and then given to prosodic identifier. In evaluation, the recognition results on emotional speech showed that the rates using proposed method increased more greatly than the existing speech recognizer. For recognition of emotion, on the other hands, four kinds of prosodic parameters such as pitch, energy, and their derivatives were proposed, that were then trained by discrete duration continuous hidden Markov models(DDCHMM) for recognition. In this approach, the emotional models were adapted by specific speaker's speech, using maximum a posteriori(MAP) estimation. In evaluation, the recognition results on emotional states showed that the rates on the vocal emotions gradually increased with an increase of adaptation sample number.

There is a general challenge offered to the field of engineering economics by the introduction of advanced technologies. A survey of the existing literature on evaluation of advanced information and manufacturing system indicate that the traditional approaches are inadequate for economic evaluation techniques used in its appraisal, difficulty in evaluating the potential benefits and criteria used to assess management performance. In this paper, an attempt has been made to overcome the above deficiencies by presenting an approach to account for the justification and selection of the Local Area Network(LAN) architectures. This is based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) and is capable of taking into account many intangible factors as well. The usefulness of the proposed approach is demonstrated through a case situation and sensitivity analysis. Finally, some research directions for future work are identified.

This study uses data envelopment analysis(DEA) to examine the relative efficiency in the production of research of 414 Korean universities utilizing the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology Report(MESTR) focusing on the 2009. This study has examined DEA and how it measures the efficiency of university units. This study has also useful suggested various approaches to advance efficiency and can provide substantial guidance for increasing the competitiveness between universities, through identifying problematic areas with the input factors and by doing so improving the output factors.
