  • As intensifying competition alters the dynamics of the wireless industry and carriers begin to tap out traditional subscribers-business users and early adopters-wireless operators have come under pressure to begin expanding their target subscriber base. While alternative market segments such as youths, senior citizens, and lower-income or credit-challenged customers often offer less compelling fundamentals (i.e., lower average revenue per user and higher churn rates), carriers, in their race to increase market share, can no longer overlook these potential market segments. In particular, the youth market is a very appealing market segment for carriers to focus on for several reasons. Carriers in many parts of the world have already begun recognizing the compelling advantages of concentrating on youths and teens. This paper will examine the dynamics of the youth/teen population and what attributes make this group an appealing market for wireless carriers. In addition, it will take a look at new emerging technologies that may help carriers attract the youth market especially mobile data, entertainment applications, and wireless messaging. This paper also studies the sensation that carriers in Europe and Japan are achieving with the youth population and suggests how carriers in Korea can emulate that success.

  • The objective of this paper was to identify the general concept of subculture; to assess the symbolism of youth subculture style, such as Teds in the 40's, Mods in the 50's, Skinheads and Hippies in the 60's, and Punks in the 80's, giving an inspiration to many high fashion designers. The data were collected from eye-wittness reports, interviews, magazines such as Vogue, The Face, and The Sunday Times, postcards, and photos taken by authors. Youth subcultures were symbolized as 1) a social protest and disaffection against social class and racism, 2) an expression of shock value for nihilism, anarchism, and vandalism, 3) a meaningful sexual fetishism concerning gender confusion, and 4) an emotion of rage, fear, and alienation among working class youth. One cultural form in a subculture is its 'style.' Costumes, appearances, and accessories such as hair style, make-up, and jewellery were playing an important role in forming a subcultural style. The symbolism of youth subculture was well depicted on their clothing styles, which had influences on Zandra Rhodes's, Body Maps', and Hyper and Hyper's fashion design.

  • The study is to analyze the role of highschool youth group in a rural regeneration project. The process of youth group becoming subjective in resident participation plan was classified into isolation reduction, self-awareness, perspective-taking, subjectivity practice, and opinion expression. Isolation reduction is a stage in which youth group is gradually drawn into the community from a limited society of home and school, self-awareness is a stage in which they discover their thoughts, and view perspective-taking is a stage in which they objectify themselves and surroundings through communication with other members of the region, social experiment was analyzed as a practice of subjectivity that experiences leadership guiding the local community independently, and expressing opinions is a stage of representing the region and giving responsibility for the specific issue of the implementation plan. The study is also an analysis of how residents committee, local governments, and local research institutes perform both regeneration and community revitalization in rural areas. Therefore, the analysis of the cooperative organization of these institutions was conducted simultaneously. The leadership program was effectively linked to the project of rural regeneration. Since high school students themselves are family members of the local people, the process of accepting the project is unaffected, and the feasibility of the project is also increased, such as forming a positive atmosphere for the project and easing resistance to minority opinions.

  • 국립고흥청소년우주체험센터에서는 1m 반사 망원경의 완성을 눈앞에 두고 있다. 천체 망원경으로 관측을 하기 위해서는 시간과 천구 좌표계의 이해는 필수적이다. 하지만 현재 본 센터에서는 천구의를 활용한 프로그램 이외에는 시간과 좌표계를 다루는 체험 프로그램이 전무한 실정이다. 센터에서는 참가자가 자신의 그림자로 시각을 알 수 있는 지평면 해시계, 센터에서 쓰지 않고 있는 구형 가마솥을 재활용한 앙부일구, 덕흥 천문대 교육동의 벽에 벽면 해시계의 제작 및 설치를 추진하고 있다. 차후 이를 활용한 체험 프로그램을 참가자에게 제공한다면 태양의 겉보기 운동을 통해 시간과 공간에 대한 개념을 쉽게 알려줄 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 우리 민족의 과학적 자긍심을 심어줄 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

  • National Youth Space Center will complete installation of the NYSC 1m Telescope in this year. Before completion of the telescope, we present the software design of JTCS, and the preliminary result of tracking performance by JTCS and mount of the telescope. JTCS currently uses commercial software of the Sky X, for the real-time coordinates of various objects, such as asteroids, comets, and even satellites. In order to guarantee flexibility in CCD detectors, the MaxIm DL software was adopted and JTCS provides auto-guiding and scheduled image-taking with MaxIm DL. We are now stabilizing the telescope mount and JTCS with long-exposure tests, and gathering the preliminary data of tracking performance.

  • 국립고흥청소년우주체험센터는 2014년부터 덕흥천문대에 설치된 SBIG사의 "Seeing Monitor"로 시상을 측정하고 있다. "Seeing Monitor"는 북극성을 대상으로 TDI(Time Delay and Integration) 방식을 적용하여 얻어진 시상을 분 단위로 저장해준다. 따라서 구름이 없는 맑은 날의 분 단위 시상 자료와 주변 환경 정보를 조합하여 시상에 영향을 미치는지 환경 요인을 정량적으로 분석하는 것이 가능하다. 그 첫 단계로 측정된 시상 자료와 기상청의 온도 습도 풍속 자료, 그리고 GFS(Global Forecast System)의 고도별 상층 풍속 자료를 비교하여 기상정보와 시상과의 관계를 분석해보았다. 습도와 바람이 시상에 가장 큰 영향을 주었으며, 지상 풍속 1~2m/s, 습도 75% 이하, 제트기류 풍속은 250km/h 이하 일 때 좋은 시상 값을 얻을 수 있었다. 이를 통해 덕흥천문대에서 기상정보를 통해 시상이 안정적인 날을 예측할 수 있다면, 앞으로 도입될 1m 망원경으로 훌륭한 관측 자료를 얻을 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.
