  • This paper proposes Direct Load Control(DLC) operation scheme using a bidding system and the methodology to value proper quantity decided by the DLC program, which is a kind of resources for stabilization of electricity market price during peak times by managing consumer electricity demand. Since DLC program in Korea is based on the contract with the customers participating in this program, it is difficult to anticipate voluntary participation. That is, incentive for participants in DLC program is insufficient. To cope with this point, it is necessary to develop a new market mechanism and market compatible operation scheme for DLC programs. DLC market mechanism is deemed to be equipped with iterative bidding system, independent operation from energy market, and interactive with bidding information on energy market. With this market mechanism, it is important to find the optimal operation point of DLC allowing for the factors of stabilizing the electricity market price and compensating DLC implementation. This paper focuses on the mathematical approaches for the bid-based DLC operation scheme and examines several scenarios for the following technical justifications: 1) stabilization of electricity market price during peak times, 2) elasticity of demand.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a Health Mileage Program (EHMP) to promote exercise amongst the elderly and assess the feasibility of the program. Methods: A literature review to identify the effects of exercise in the elderly was conducted. Relevant cases were investigated and in-depth interviews with exercise instructors were conducted, after which the EHMP was developed based on the assessment and tested in three regions. The outcome was evaluated using indicators such as attendance rate, number of participants, proportion of participants who received health education, and proportion of participants who measured their physical and mental status. Results: Based on assessment, we developed an EHMP composed of four steps. Following application of the EHMP in three regions, ${\geq}80%$ of the participants received incentives. Additionally, ${\geq}85%$ of participants underwent measurement of their physical and mental status. The proportion of participants who received health education differed among regions. Conclusion: The EHMP program increased participation and interest in exercise programs for the elderly. However, there is concern regarding availability due to regional differences in resources related to elderly exercise; therefore, it will be necessary to invest in infrastructure, including facilities, and knowledgeable instructors.

  • 2012년부터 RPS 제도가 시행됨에 따라 신재생에너지 분야에서의 투자가 활발히 이루어질 것으로 예상된다. 신재생에너지를 통한 기업의 온실가스 감축투자는 장기적으로 기술진보와 국내 전력가격에도 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소이다. 한편, 국내에 온실가스 감축정책 수단으로 배출권거래제가 논의 중인 바, 유사한 성격의 두 제도가 기업의 환경투자 의사결정에 미치는 영향을 분석하도록 한다. 투자의 비가역성과 배출권 및 REC 가격의 불확실성을 고려하는 실물옵션 모형을 이용하여, 게이트웨이의 설정을 통한 배출권과 REC의 호환성이 보장될 때에 투자 인센티브를 분석하였다. 환경투자를 통해 온실가스 감축이 충분히 클 경우에는 투자에 대한 게이트웨이의 긍정적인 효과가 확인되는 것으로 나타났다. 신재생에너지 투자효과에 대한 보다 엄밀한 분석을 위하여 향후 발전사 데이터의 구축을 통해 실증분석이 추가로 이루어져야 할 것이다.

  • The Human Research Protection Program (HRPP) includes all subject protection activities and entities involved in the process of planning, reviewing, and conducting clinical research and it ultimately aims that research can be conducted ethically and scientifically while protecting the rights and welfare of research subjects. At the beginning of its introduction in Korea, it was settled down by adopting the United States HRPP, especially the form of AAHRPP element and regulations. However, regulations and operating forms of HRPP have been changed according to the Korean domestic research environment. Actually, all the Korean institutions are adopted the Korean HRPP guidelines that have been officially announced by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety in Korea. Recently, Korean domestic laws such as the "Advanced Regenerative Biology Act" or "In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Act" have been dramatically innovated and our research environment becomes to be more complicated. Therefore, the development of a suitable Korean HRPP model considering the Korean research environment is strongly demanded. For the early settle down of the Korean HRPP model, the positive incentive method should be applied, when the HRPP is operated and/ or properly operated. These improvements in the Korean HRPP environment will eventually lead to the appropriate protection of subjects who are participating in human clinical research and the quality improvement of clinical research.

  • This study was implemented for the purpose of analyzing the Job Competency level of accredited and non-accredited program's graduates. And we were seeking way to manage realistic and effective way of Accreditation of Engineering education. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, survey and FGI were done. The study was: accredited program's graduates thought more positively than non-accredited program's graduates, and graduates felt that 11 Job Competencies Level of Work Performance were lower than the needs of job performance. The conclusions of this study were summarized as follows: First, between accredited and non-accredited program's graduates, we could see significant recognition difference about the perception of the needs of job performance. This was because Design curriculum were reinforced and accredited program's graduates had attended design program at accredited program. Second, accredited program's graduates felt higher than non-accredited program's graduates about the perception of level of work performance. This was because the efforts for curriculum reorganizing and teaching methods improvement were done. Third, we could not find significant recognition difference about the perception of the needs for job performance and work level. That was because accredited and non-accredited program were not dealed seperately. The conclusions of this study are summarized as follows: First, The efforts for analyzing job competence of industry and reflecting the program curriculum are needed on the accredited program for engineering education. Second, Government should make the incentive policy about the companies which give some merits to the accreditation graduates, and monitor constantly their real working. Third, in order that the accreditation results can be trustful on staff recruiting or school choosing, accreditation should make outcome-based-evaluation which guarantees competence of graduates.

  • With the growing penetration of distributed generation including from renewable sources, smart grid power system is needed to address the reliability problem. One important feature of smart grid is demand response. In order to design a demand response program, it is indispensable to understand how consumer reacts upon the change of electricity price. In this paper, we construct an econometrics model to estimate the hourly price elasticity of demand. This panel model utilizes the hourly load data obtained from KEPCO for the period from year 2005 to 2009. The hourly price elasticity of demand is found to be statistically significant for all the sample under investigation. The samples used for this analysis is from the past historical data under the price structure of three different time zones for each season. The result of the analysis of this time of use pricing structure would allow the policy maker design an appropriate incentive program. This study is important in the sense that it provides a basic research information for designing future demand response programs.

  • Purpose - The goal of this research is to examine the influence of Quick Response on the supply chain performance. Furthermore, this study investigates the potential of Quick Response to be a more advanced form of supply chain collaboration program with extensive information sharing activities. Research design, data, and methodology - The mathematical model is developed to represent the two stage supply chain system with a single manufacturer and one retailer. In the numerical study with the proposed mathematical models, three supply chain systems including the traditional system, Quick Response, and the fully shared information system are compared in terms of their profits. Results - The numerical analysis shows both manufacturer and retailer obtain greater profits under Quick Response than in the traditional system. While the fully shared information outperforms Quick Response as well as the traditional system, it results in lower manufacturer's profit compared with Quick Response. Conclusions - According to the numerical examples, Quick Response is the effective supply chain collaboration program that is beneficial to every supply chain member. The fully shared information system, as a more advanced form of collaboration than Quick Response can bring more benefits to the whole supply chain system, but it is necessary to prepare the proper incentive program that enables every member to share its benefits equally.

  • Objectives: The purpose of the study was to investigate the correlation between health behaviors and experiences of oral diseases in Korean adolescents. Methods: This study used the results of the seventh, eighth, and ninth adolescent health behavior online survey which was completed by a self-administered questionnaire targeting 222,264 middle school and high school students in September, 2011, June, 2012, and from June to July, 2013. The questionnaire consisted of four questions of socio-economic characteristics of the subjects, three questions of health behaviors, and four questions of eating habits. Data were analyzed by SPSS 18.0 program. Results: Oral health knowledge and behaviors were closely correlated to smoking, alcohol drinking, and toothbrushing after meal. Liking for fruit, soda, snack, and vegetable had a significant influence on oral diseases. Smoking and alcohol drinking had a significant relation to oral disease prevalence rate. Conclusions: In Korea, the prevalence rate of oral diseases is still high in the adolescents. Therefore, continuous dental health education program is very important to decrease the oral disease morbidity. The incentive program for the adolescents will improve the concern for the oral health.

  • 본 연구는 2006년부터 2012년까지 이루어진 자활 참여자의 자활 경험과 전망에 대한 종단적 질적연구이다. 연구자는 총 12인에 대한 심층면접 자료에 대해 근거이론 분석을 시도하였다. 개방코딩 결과 삶의 경험, 자활의 경험 및 성공과 실패, 변화 및 자활 전망에 대해 총 181개의 개념이 도출되었다. 축코딩을 통한 패러다임분석에서 자활 성공의 인과적 조건으로 일과 교육의 기회 및 자활을 위한 노력이 제시되었다. 중심현상은 자활 제도에 적응하며 현상유지와 안주를 하는 것으로 나타났고, 이에 대한 맥락적 조건들은 피하고 싶은 빈곤 경험 및 안정적 자녀양육으로 나타났다. 공동체 실패를 경험한 경우, 내부의 갈등과 수익창출 실패가 맥락적 조건으로 작용하였다. 중심현상에 대한 상호작용 전략은 부족한 자활공동체 지원과 통합급여 방식이라는 중재적 조건을 통해 촉진되었다. 이러한 중재적 조건 하에서는 공동체로 독립하는 것은 위험으로 인식되어, 제도의 목표를 향한 인과적 조건과 제도에 안주하려는 중심현상간의 괴리가 발견되었다. 이러한 분석은 정책 입안자와 참여자가 생각하는 자활의 의미가 다를 수 있으며, 현행 자활모델이 보다 참여자가 처한 상황을 반영하여 현장중심의 자활유인을 제시해야 한다는 정책적 함의를 제공한다.
