  • The $Comet{\acute{e}}$ Consultatif de $Thermom{\acute{e}}trie$ (CCT) under the Comete International des Poids et Measures (CIPM) has decided to perform the Key Comparison (KC) for triple point of water cells used as a reference fixed point of thermometry at the 21st meeting held at November 2001, and the Bureau International des Poids et Measures (BIPM) has been nominated as a KC coordinator. According to the KC protocol prepared by BIPM, KRISS performed the KC experiments and evaluate a uncertainty. The temperature difference between two reference cells for the Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) and a test cell for the transfer standard, which is moved to BIPM was 0.024 mK and the combined standard uncertainty evaluated 0.055 mK.

  • Among various export contracts, the contents of contracts are very important. Various companies make use of this method. [Which method are you talking about?] However, the Korean law system has an insufficient understanding of the international legal system. This paper looks into the conditions related to contracts in relation to the legal system. This paper analyzes not only the Korean civil law system about illegality of contracts but also makes a comparison with other international systems, such as the UNIDROIT Principles. Especially, the Korean civil law system about the illegality of contracts is comparable with the UNIDROIT Principles system about illegality of contracts. The purpose of this paper is to examine the revitalization of Illegality of Contract. This paper also deals with improvement of International Commercial Activation. Thus, this paper will offer directions to International Trade Practitioners. There is disagreement regarding methods of action related to international trade practice. Especially, this study is good for commercial parties, especially overseas sales people.

  • In the present study, we investigate and compare the International Mathematical Olympiad participation histories of Korea, China, and Japan. Especially, the processes for the first participation of the IMO, trends in team rankings of the IMO, and national team selection systems and education systems are compared. And we investigate and compare the policies for the talented girls mathematics Olympians. Several proposals are suggested for development of Korean Mathematical Olympiad and participations to IMO.

  • Plant is production unit which consists of hardware for manufacturing like machinery, equipments and software for its installation like design, construction, supervision, engineering, know-how and trial operation. In the view of this, plant industry can be defined as an aggregation of manufacturers and sellers of plant. In this study, I would like to present the direction of cooperation for mutual benefit of Korea-Japan by understanding international competitive power of both countries' plant industry, which is not only growing as a national strategic industry, but also occupying the most important part in international economic cooperation.

Academic Activities of the Korean Gerontological Society for Four Decades: An Analysis Related to Trends in Aging Policy and Activities of the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics (한국노년학회 40년간의 학술활동 분석: 노인정책의 변화와 세계노년학·노인의학회(IAGG) 학술동향을 중심으로)

  • The purpose of this study is to examine the major academic activities of the Korean Gerontological Society (KGS) during the last 40 years in comparison to changes in elderly policies in Korea and also academic trends in gerontology worldwide and the academic activities of the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics (IAGG); based on this analysis, this study aims to propose future directions for the academic progress of the KGS. We examined the major academic activities of the KGS by analyzing the contents of biannual conferences, international conferences, and irregular seminars and policy meetings, using conference booklets, KGS websites, and literature on KGS history. Second, we analyzed the academic activities of the KGS in comparison to changes in elderly policies in Korea, using databases of major newspapers and also the BigKinds search offered by the Korea Press Foundation. Third, the academic activities of the KGS were reviewed in comparison to those of the IAGG and the major aging policy agendas of key international organizations. The study results demonstrate that the KGS has been proactive in conducting diverse multi-disciplinary and international academic activities while promptly responding to both domestic and international changes in elderly policies. But some issues were not properly addressed due to the lack of diversity in its members, and it also should be noted that some issues were not discussed in depth for a sufficient length of time. Henceforth, as the leading academic organization in gerontology with a multi-disciplinary orientation in Korea, the KGS should continue to lead the development and evaluation of aging policies and also actively carry out diverse academic activities in collaboration with international academic societies and organizations.

  • Since the liberalization of petroleum product prices in 1997, there has been persistent suspicion with regard to asymmetry in the movement of petroleum product prices in Korea. In particular, academics and consumer groups suggest that prices decided by refining companies and gas stations have moved asymmetrically compared with international petroleum product prices. The primary aim of this study is to determine, using the Error Correction Model, to perform multi-country asymmetry analysis including the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy and Japan. We shows that comparison of domestic prices with international prices in the six countries mentioned above revealed a fairly low level of asymmetry in those countries, although some asymmetry was found in some countries at various times within the period of analysis. To explain the different degrees of asymmetry between countries, this study looked at asymmetry in the United States, Germany and Italy and sought correlations between each country's oil industry structure and its level of competition.

  • This study analyzes the differences in definitions and concepts of terms used in the statistical indicators of fatal occupational injuries per 100,000 workers among countries included in the ILOSTAT data explorer. In addition, improvement measures focusing on the limitations in international comparison are proposed. Five countries-the Republic of Korea, Germany, Japan, United Kingdom, United States-- were comparatively analyzed. These countries were selected according to the significance of differences in their definitions of workplace injuries, workers, and compensation insurance, and their reporting systems. Considering these differences before directly comparing statistical indicators of fatal occupational injuries per 100,000 workers among countries is necessary because the range of comparison groups and the definition of fatal occupational injury are different for each country. While one can also compare trends by country, it is necessary to investigate beforehand whether the criteria and methods for processing statistics have changed. Misinterpretation can be minimized by properly understanding the process and limitations of fatal occupational statistical indicators that may differ from country to country.
