Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) aims to analyze possible impact upon manufacturing process and availability of products, and also study the environmental considerations and potential influence during entire life cycle ranging from procurement, production and utilization to treatment (namely, from cradle to tomb). Based on high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe manufacturing of company A, this case study would involve evaluation of environmental influence during the production process. When the manufacturing process has been improved during "production process" and "forming cooling" stage, it is found that capital input on "electric power" and "water supply" could be reduced, thus helping to sharpen the competitive power of company A, and also ensure sustainable economic and industrial development in accordance with national policies on environmental protection.

The purpose of this paper is to find the magnetic field distribution inside the motor in order to find out if the high-Tc superconducting tapes operate stably in actual motor operation. With this gola, magnetic field distribution in a detailed model of the actual motor was analyzed through F.E.M. (Finite Element Method). As a result, it has been proved that the high-Tc superconducting tapes can withstand 4 A of current with stability. 4 A was the amount of current needed to achieve 600 A ·turns which is required by the previous simulation aimed at developing this motor. Also, it has been observed that the flux damper reduces armature reactance during the motor operation and during load changes, helping the stable motor operation. But, it was observed that the flux damper generates loss by means of leakage flux and this decreases the output of the motor by about 5%.

The year of 2009 marks the $200^{th}$ anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his book, On the Origin of Species. Having survived the 150 years of hardening and tempering, Darwin's theory of natural selection is now more comprehensive and powerful than ever. It casts its shadow over nearly all academic disciplines and societal sectors. It truly revolutionized the way we look at the world and ourselves. In the midst of Darwinian revolution, however, Korea remains as a backward country as far as the understanding of Darwin and his theory is concerned. A variety of intellectual activities organized to celebrate the Year of Darwin is helping to narrow the gap. This article summarizes the kinds of such activities held in Korea this year and explains how Darwin made all this possible. To paraphrase the famous quotation by Theodosius Dobzhansky, I now dare to say, "Nothing in life makes sense except in the light of evolution".

This study investigated if and why there are gulfs between expectations and perceived value for usability. The main objectives of this study are as follows: (a) to examine the differences between expectation and perceived value for usability toward an OTA; and (b) to investigate the reason and purpose for customer visits toward an OTAs. By analyzing the distance between expected and the perceived value for the usability, OTAs can then close this distance and then be able to improve the usefulness of their websites. In addition, after investigating previous evaluation problems, that the various factors that are associated with tourism website evaluations, may be downsized to fit a comprehensive model for website evaluations. The results help to close the gap between expectation and perceived value by helping with the websites design, development, implementation, and management of systems. Based on those findings, effective strategies for OTAs marketing and promotional strategies are suggested.

This study investigates the impact of the shared environment of pregnant women and their unborn child on the later emotional and behavioral characteristics of a child, extending into his or her adulthood. Using a sample of some 16,000 children from the National Child Development Study, the study demonstrated a positive relationship between the quality of the maternal environment and later emotional and behavioral performances during childhood and adulthood. These findings support the study hypothesis, suggesting that parenting environment such as mother‘s employment, husband’s social class and the mother‘s smoking habits during pregnancy has an affection on the later emotional and behavioral development of the child. The dimensions of the child’s emotional and behavioral well-being may be enhanced by therapeutic interventions and/or by helping pregnant women to develop a positive social network.

Many companies have integrated their internal processes with the aid of information technology. Now the focus is on interconnecting trading partners. Collaborative commerce (also known as c-Commerce) has a key role. It is not just about making it easier for business to communicate. It is about by breaking down barriers along the entire length of the supply chain. Some c-Commerce links are permanent, others get established when and where they are needed. c-Commerce is helping business in electronic supply chains to improve product delivery while cutting costs, to strengthen relationships and to reduce lead time. In this paper, we propose the concept of collaborative commerce, and design and implement Collaborative Commerce Portal (CCP) system of small and medium enterprise for marketing support. The technical definition of CCP is set of all technical elements can do collaborative commerce between small and medium enterprises with Internet or Internet. The target information of CCP includes usual and unusual information and all other information of companies used as process events. Through this, it enhances efficiency of business processes, core information sharing and marketing activation.

In this paper, for supporting more variable services than typical DSRC, brand call service, truck and an official vehicle services, etc. using location information and mobile communication network could be adapted. emergence helping information providing, multimedia service that are wireless internet, movies and games, are increasingly needed for competible wireless car mobile terminal. Those needs would make a development a wireless telemetries system based on WiBro interface in ubiquitous vehicle environment. We analysis the proposed telematics mobile terminal using simulation which is concerned about fixed bandwidth and dynamic bandwidth.

This study is carried out (1) checking the development of compressive strength of high flowing concrete at early age, changing water-binder ratio, curing temperature, and type of aggregate, and (2) suggesting basic date that helping cost and schedule plan in future construction. As the result of this study, we find that high curing temperature is effective for the development of compressive strength of concrete at early age on the condition of each water-binder ratio, and after making the compressive prediction formula related to the curing temperature by maturity, the result of the formular is similar to the temperature-compressive strength-age measured data

Point of Production/Manufacturing Execution Systems are an essential component of operations in today's competitive business environments, which require greater production efficiency and effectiveness. POP/MES focuses on the valuing-adding processes, helping to reduce manufacturing cycle time, improve product quality, reduce WIP, reduce or eliminate paperwork between shifts, reduce lead time and empowering plant operations staff. In this paper, we implement POP/MES to manage real-time plant floor data which is gathered by I/O server into database management system. I/O server is a software allows data exchange between factory real-time database and several hardware devices such as PLC, DCS, robot and sensor through ethernet TCP/IP protocol.
