This paper describes the simple payback period analysis of small co-generation system based on the existing apartment and building data. First, We investigate apartment and building data more than $2000[m^2]$ using Ministry of Construction & Transportation's computer system. And then we calculate the latent amount of small co-generation system considering gas company and CHP. Second, we classify the latent amount of small co-generation system into office, hospital, hotel, department store, complex building and apartment. Finally, we perform the simple payback period analysis for small co-generation system. The results show the simple payback period of small co-generation system is less then 10 years.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to provide basic data on the infection prevention management program, which is one of the infectious disease control program by identifying the prevalence and risk factors of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in healthcare workers. Methods: We surveyed a total of 3,046 LTBI test results, including those of 2,269 existing staff and 777 new employees. An interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) for the diagnosis of LTBI was performed using QuantiFERON^®-TB Gold In-Tube (QFT-IT). The risk factors of LTBI were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. Results: The overall prevalence of LTBI was 16.0% (487/3,046). The prevalence of LTBI in the existing staff was 17.9% (406/2,269) and the prevalence of LTBI in new employees was 10.4% (81/777). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the risk factors of latent tuberculosis infection among the existing staff were gender, age and work period wheres, the risk factor amongst the new employees depended on their age. Conclusion: The LTBI was not related to the type of occupation and work unit. Therefore, while establishing an infection control program for the prevention of tuberculosis infection at medical institurions, institutional heads and infection control experts should encompass a policy for all the employees.

The time variations in relative humidity observed at the Gangjeong (Goryeong) Reservoir in the Nakdong River over a one-year period (September 2012-August 2013) were analyzed with the Bowen ratio. The thermal vertical scale of the reservoir was also evaluated following Yamamoto's method. The study's results showed that the relative humidity at the reservoir was higher than that of the Daegu Meteorological Observatory (inland) all year round. The difference was slightly larger at nighttime (17-20 %) than at daytime (13-15 %) in all seasons except summer. The quantitative order of latent heat flux was summer, spring, autumn, and winter. This finding signifies that the thermal vertical scale of the reservoir corresponds to that of a shallow lake. The Bowen ratio was smallest at midday of the summer season. In other words, the net radiation energy was converted more as latent heat flux than sensible heat flux during a higher temperature period.

This study was designed to seek information on the heat charging and discharging characteristics of a multi-capsule type LTES(Latent Heat of Fusion Thermal Energy Storage) system, and especially prediction equation of outlet water temperature from the system. During heat charging process, the water temperature in the LTES tank increased very slowly in comparison with a predicted one and was kept near the melting point of the PCM for about 25 minutes. During heat discharging process, the latent heat discharging period of the outlet water temperature became longer as the inlet water temperature became higher and/or mass flow rate became lower. The dimensionless temperature of the outlet water was predicted by linking three equations of ${\theta}=1.1Exp(-{\tau}/0.82)$, ${\theta}=-0.06{\tau}+0.3$, ${\theta}=0.8Exp(-{\tau}/1.4)$ ($r^2{\leq}0.88$) depending on discharging period regardless of mass flow rates on the case of the inlet water temperature at $21.5^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study was to identify developmental trajectories of externalizing problems in preschoolers and to investigate dimensions of temperament and parental behaviors associated with trajectory groups. Subjects were 180 3- to 5-year-old preschoolers (96 males, 84 females) in the metropolitan area of Seoul. They were assessed three times at 5 month intervals over a one year period. Teachers reported on children's behavior problems, and parents reported on children's temperaments. Latent Growth Curve Modeling Analysis with cohort sequential design revealed externalizing behaviors gradually decreased between 3 and 6. At the 6-year-old level externalizing behaviors were associated with high novelty seeking temperament. The results were discussed in terms of the importance of longitudinal research in developmental psychopathology.

경제성장과정에서 석면을 활용해왔지만, 석면이 치명적인 환경성질환을 유발하는 1급 발암물질로 지정되면서 전 세계적으로 엄격한 석면사용규제 조치를 실시하고 있다. 석면노출과 환경성질환의 발현 간에 수십 년에 걸친 장기 잠복기가 존재한다는 특성을 고려하여, 한국의 석면 소비량과 악성중피종 발병 간의 시차를 분석하고 장기관계를 추정한다. 이와 함께, 한국에 비해 상대적으로 석면규제가 오랜 기간 이루어지고 장기시계열 자료를 갖춘 영국과 미국을 대상으로 한 비교분석도 병행한다. 시차분석에서는, 3개 국가 모두에서 30년 이상의 장기시차가 존재할 때, 석면 소비와 악성중피종 발병 간의 교차상관성이 높은 것으로 나타난다. 또한 변수간 장기시차가 존재할 경우 석면 소비량과 악성중피종 발병 간에 장기균형관계가 존재한다. 그리고 시차분포모형을 활용한 결과, 석면 소비량이 장기시차를 두고 악성중피종에 유의한 정의 영향을 미치고 있다.

The study reported in this paper aimed to evaluate the topics and opinions of COVID-19 discussion found on Twitter. It performed topic modeling and sentiment analysis of tweets posted during the COVID-19 outbreak, and compared these results over space and time. In addition, by covering a more recent and a longer period of the pandemic timeline, several patterns not previously reported in the literature were revealed. Author-pooled Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) was used to generate twenty topics that discuss different aspects related to the pandemic. Time-series analysis of the distribution of tweets over topics was performed to explore how the discussion on each topic changed over time, and the potential reasons behind the change. In addition, spatial analysis of topics was performed by comparing the percentage of tweets in each topic among top tweeting countries. Afterward, sentiment analysis of tweets was performed at both temporal and spatial levels. Our intention was to analyze how the sentiment differs between countries and in response to certain events. The performance of the topic model was assessed by being compared with other alternative topic modeling techniques. The topic coherence was measured for the different techniques while changing the number of topics. Results showed that the pooling by author before performing LDA significantly improved the produced topic models.

Purpose The development of the network and mobile industries has induced companies to invest in information systems, leading a new industrial revolution. The Journal of Information Systems, which developed the information system field into a theoretical and practical study in the 1990s, retains a 30-year history of information systems. This study aims to identify academic values and research trends of JIS by analyzing the trends. Design/methodology/approach This study aims to analyze the trend of JIS by compounding various methods, named as TLS mining analysis. TLS mining analysis consists of a series of analysis including Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) weight model, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling, and a text mining with Semantic Network Analysis. Firstly, keywords are extracted from the research data using the TF-IDF weight model, and after that, topic modeling is performed using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm to identify issue keywords. Findings The current study used the summery service of the published research paper provided by Korea Citation Index to analyze JIS. 714 papers that were published from 2002 to 2012 were divided into two periods: 2002-2011 and 2012-2021. In the first period (2002-2011), the research trend in the information system field had focused on E-business strategies as most of the companies adopted online business models. In the second period (2012-2021), data-based information technology and new industrial revolution technologies such as artificial intelligence, SNS, and mobile had been the main research issues in the information system field. In addition, keywords for improving the JIS citation index were presented.

본 연구는 중장년층 이상을 대상으로 사회경제적 박탈이 우울에 미치는 영향에 있어 시간의 흐름에 따른 효과를 심층적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 잠재성장모형을 이용한 우울과 사회경제적 박탈의 2개 요인 간의 인과적 관계를 규명하는 방법을 적용하였다. 자료는 한국복지패널의 2013년(8차 조사)부터 2017년(12차 조사)까지의 5년간 자료에서 만40세 이상 7,434명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구결과, 우울 수준은 연도가 지날수록 점차적으로 낮아지는 선형적인 변화를 나타내었다. 박탈요인의 초기점수가 높을수록 우울의 초기값 또한 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 박탈요인의 초기값이 클수록 우울의 변화량도 함께 증가되어 박탈의 초기수준이 우울증가의 변화에도 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로, 박탈요인의 변화량이 높을수록 우울의 변화량이 함께 증가되는 경향이 있었다. 이러한 연구결과로 볼 때, 시간이 흐름에 따라 박탈을 많이 경험할수록 우울 수준도 높아진다는 사실과 박탈의 변화수준 또한 우울의 변화수준에 영향을 미친다는 것이다. 본 연구가 갖는 함의는 우울을 예측하는 요소로서 중장년기의 사회경제적 박탈은 국가 정책적 차원에서 지원과 관심이 지속적으로 필요하다는 점이다.
