  • The objective of this study is to analyze the performance of Islamic banks with the Maqashid Shariah approach. The analysis technique used is the Simple Additive Weighting Method (SAW) to solve multi-attribute decision problems. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling while the data came from the annual report of each bank. The results showed that the BTPN Shariah (BTPNS) and Bank Muamalat Indonesia (BMI) are ranked first and second respectively on the Maqashid Shariah Index (MSI) with values of 0.265429 and 0.237110 respectively. Panin Dubai Shariah Bank (PDSB) ranked third with an MSI value of 0.180733, followed by BCA Shariah which ranked fourth with an MSI value of 0.151299. BRI Shariah ranked fifth with an MSI value of 0.128606, followed by BNI Shariah which ranked sixth with an MSI value of 0.124661. Bank Mega Shariah ranked last with an MSI value of 0.087068. Furthermore, there is a relationship (correlation) between ROE, ROA, and OEOI and MSI since each data has a value of 0.000, 0.000, 0.050, and 0.001 respectively, which is smaller than the significance value of 0.05. On the other hand, NPF, TPF, and Asset Growth Rates do not correlate with the MSI since each data has a value of 0.051, 0.252, and 0.215 respectively which is greater than the significance value of 0.05.

  • Quality assurance is a central issue concerning higher education and distance education. The purposes of this study are to analyze cases of quality assurance system in overseas open university and to draw implications which help establish quality assurance system in domestic distance education institution. UKOU and UT are mega-university with more than 100.000 enrolled students. They have centralized quality assurance system and quality assurance department that is responsible for building and installing quality assurance for effective quality control. In addition, They have quality improvement culture that seeks continuous improvement. Members of the University share awareness of the importance of quality assurance and evaluate and monitor their work. Because results for quality assurance of education is not tangible, quality assurance system is carefully planned over a long period of time as is necessary to proceed in integration.

  • Objective: This study evaluated the effects of feeding diets naturally contaminated with deoxynivalenol (supplemental 2 mg/kg) on health, growth, and the effects of a mycotoxin-detoxifying additive in newly-weaned pigs. Methods: Thirty-six pigs (27 day-old) were housed individually and assigned to 3 treatments for 5 weeks: CON (diet containing minimal deoxynivalenol), MT (diet with supplemental 1.9 mg/kg of deoxynivalenol), and MT+D (MT + mycotoxin-detoxifying additive, 0.2%, MegaFix, ICC, São Paulo, Brazil). The mycotoxin-detoxifying additive included bentonite, algae, enzymes, and yeast. Blood was taken at week 2 and 5. Jejunal tissue were taken at week 5. Data were analyzed using the MIXED procedure of SAS. Results: Pigs fed MT+D tended to have decreased (p = 0.056) averaged daily feed intake during week 1 than MT. At week 2, serum aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase in MT tended to be lower (p = 0.059) than CON, whereas it was increased (p<0.05) for MT+D than MT, indicating hepatic damages in MT and recovery in MT+D. Pigs fed MT had lower (p<0.05) blood urea nitrogen/creatinine than CON, supporting hepatic damage. At week 5, pigs fed MT tended to have reduced (p = 0.079) glucose than CON, whereas it was increased (p<0.05) for MT+D than MT, indicating impaired intestinal glucose absorption in MT, which was improved in MT+D. Pigs fed CON tended to have increased (p = 0.057) total glutathione in jejunum than MT, indicating oxidative stress in MT. Pigs fed MT+D had a reduced (p<0.05) proportion of Ki-67-positive cells in jejunum than MT, indicating lower enterocyte proliferation in MT+D. Conclusion: Feeding supplemental 1.9 mg/kg of deoxynivalenol reduced growth and debilitated hepatic health of pigs, as seen in leakage of hepatic enzymes, impaired nitrogen metabolism, and increase in oxidative stress. The mycotoxin-detoxifying enhanced hepatic health and glucose levels, and attenuated gut damage in pigs fed deoxynivalenol contaminated diets.

  • This study looked at the World Martial Arts Mastership's 'non-face promotional media strategies and methods' after the Corona-19 fandom, and found out if they could be applied to other sports events. As a method of research, the promotional media strategy of martial arts mastership was divided into types and in-depth interviews with media agents were conducted. According to the study, hosting an online martial arts competition, building an untact convention platform, and a base education facility can be a successful contest with budget support. Martial arts branding, popularization and industrialization can be a new attempt if ideas and execution personnel are sufficient. If IT technology and Chungbuk martial arts infrastructure are combined, they will be able to pioneer a new model called 'non-face-to-face-to K-sports'.

  • This study examined the effect of Instagram usage time (short, long) and spending on fashion products (light, heavy) on product attitude and purchase intention of products promoted by an influencer. The moderating effect of influencer type (mega, macro, micro) was also investigated. A total of 515 males and females in their 20s participated in an online survey. Descriptive statistics were analyzed and exploratory factor analysis and two-way ANOVA were conducted. Research findings were as follows. First, the usage time, both short and long, had a positive effect on product attitude. Also, the interactive effects of usage time and influencer type on product attitude were found. Consumers with short Instagram usage time displayed the highest attitude toward products promoted by a macro-influencer whereas consumers with long Instagram usage time displayed the highest attitude toward products promoted by a micro-influencer. Second, usage time and influencer type did not show interactive effects on purchase intention. Third, both categoriacl variables of users' spending on fashion products had a positive effect on product attitude. Fourth, the interaction effects of spending on fashion products and influencer types on purchase intention were found. The group of light buyers showed the highest purchase intention on products promoted by the macro-influencer while the group of heavy buyers showed the highest purchase intention of products promoted by the micro-influencer. Based on the results, implications were suggested.

  • In order to derive the success factors of a Mega-scale national project, this study conducted a questionnaire survey on experts participating in the Yongsan National Park development program to obtain critical success factors in the program definition phase. AHP analysis was performed for each category through a survey of experts participating in the definition phase of the Yongsan park development program to derive relative importance. The categories were classified into program strategy, process, and people, and the importance between categories was people, strategy, and process in that order. In addition, as for the 27 critical success factors in the program definition phase, the program manager's competency and leadership, environmental and cultural property survey planning, program management plan preparation, operation and maintenance philosophy, and integrated program office showed high priorities. Therefore, in promoting the Yongsan Park development program, we propose a strategy for selecting and focusing on the critical success factors with high priorities in the program definition phase proposed in this study.

  • The solid-state core of a heat pipe cooled reactor operates at high temperatures over 1000 K with thermal and irradiation-induced expansion during burnup. The expansion changes the gap thickness between the solid components and the material properties, and may even cause the gap closure, which then significantly influences the thermal and mechanical characteristics of the reactor core. This study developed an irradiation behavior model for HPRTRAN, a heat pipe reactor system analysis code, to introduce the irradiation effects such as swelling and creep. The megawatt heat pipe reactor MegaPower was chosen as an application case. The coupled irradiation-thermal-mechanical model was developed to simulate the irradiation effects on the heat transfer and stresses of the whole reactor core. The results show that the irradiation deformation effect is significant, with the irradiation-induced strains up to 2.82% for fuel and 0.30% for monolith at the end of the reactor lifetime. The peak temperatures during the lifetime are 1027:3 K for the fuel and 956:2 K for monolith. The gap closure enhances the heat transfer but caused high stresses exceeding the yield strength in the monolith.
