In order to settle down structural causes of the process of distribution and apparel production in domestic fashion industry, and to raise competitive power with changing market environment, we need to bulid up Quick Response(QR) system based on information technology such as EDI(Electronic Data Interchange), KAN(Korea Article Number), and POS(Point of Sales), POS is the most valuable information tool to promote QR system paractically. The purpose of this study was to investigate motivation of POS adoption, problems in operating the system, and satisfaction on POS effects. Data were collected by sending questionnaire to the managers in apparel firms which were using POS. Statistical devices were t-test, frequency with SAS program. The results fo the study were as follows: 1. The degree of satisfaction to POS effects was rather good. Especially, rapid evaluations on new products gave the greatest satisfaction to the users. 2. Satisfaction degree of POS effects according to introduces time and organization characteristic(number of employees) have no significant difference, but the firms which have higher annual sales volume showed higher satisfaction degree. Merchandise department showed higher satisfaction on POS effects. 3. The motivation of POS adoption was an effective logistics control with consumer information as a marketing strategy. The problems in operating the system were lack of investment, and professionals. They almost didn't have KAN code, instead, have their own code system.

Since the bank managers were accustomed to be under the goverment policy and control so far, all what they had to do were just to follow the government policy and wait for customers. These usual practices resultedin neglection of concerns for innovation and competitive power. However, it currently happens the change of business environment such as the liberalization of interest rates and the open finance market policy. Thus, it is necessary for the bank managers to have a concern on that situation for the improvement of profitability through productivity and cost-down. The bank managers are trying to set out an innovation strategy to cope with this situation. An innovation strategy should be based on its own characteristics of banking business. The banking business is different from those of other business because it deals with intangible services rather than material goods and thus, the bank managers have to be more sensitive to the customers. There also exists an inefficiency of internal process due to too many repetition of 'check and balance'. Thus, We set out the five principles and six selected tasks in order to settle down an inefficiency and to redesign a bank operation process.

Recently, there are many studies, that considering green wireless cellular networks, have taken the energy consumption of the base station (BS) into consideration. In this work, we first introduce an energy consumption model of multi-mode sharing BS powered by multiple energy sources including renewable energy, local storage and power grid. Then communication load requests of the BS are transformed to energy demand queues, and battery energy level and worst-case delay constraints are considered into the virtual queue to ensure the network QoS when our objective is to minimize the long term electricity cost of BSs. Lyapunov optimization method is applied to work out the optimization objective without knowing the future information of the communication load, real-time electricity market price and renewable energy availability. Finally, linear programming is used, and the corresponding energy efficient scheduling policy is obtained. The performance analysis of our proposed online algorithm based on real-world traces demonstrates that it can greatly reduce one day's electricity cost of individual BS.

Wind power, which is one of the promising renewable energies, has shown the high growth rate of 35 % of the annual average in the recent 5 years and also windmill related equipment market has been fast-growing. Yaw & Pitch bearing are the key parts of windmill and are machined by huge vertical lathe which is monopolized by the advanced countries. The purpose of this study is to develop the multi-tasking vertical lathe for 5 MW grade windmill bearings, which might be mass produced 3 or 5 years later. In this study, the structure of the crossrail and rotary table, which are the key units of the huge multi-tasking vertical lathe, were optimized through the finite element analysis. Also the basic performance of the rotary table has been evaluated.

Many companies still struggle with the issue of research and development(R&D) performance measurement, in particular, the nonfinancial performance measurement of R&D with coming of knowledge-based society, Of course, we would not deny the fact that financial measures play the central role in assessing the overall performance of R&D, The aim of this paper is to provide the new model to evaluate the quantitative value of technology (nonfinancial benefits). This new model is based on the technology stock(technology level) acquired in R&D process, That is, we take it for granted that the acquired technology below a certain level(<70% compare to the advanced country) can not be utilized in developing the new products or in proving the manufacturing processes, The evaluation model we create can explains the quantitative relation between the technology stock and the market value considering R&D expenditure to acquire the technology above certain level(>70%) and cost to prevent the technology obsolescence. The value of non-destructive testing technology, which is one of the electric Power technology, is measured quantitatively using our new model as a case study, We also discussed briefly the possibility of capitalization of the measured technology value.

Large area YBCO - films are series produced by thermal co-evaporation using a deposition scheme known as Garching process, which allows intermittent oxygen supply in a high vacuum ambient by an oxygen cup spaced closely underneath the moving substrates. The deposition area of 9" diameter is capable to handle very large wafers up to 8" diam. or numerous smaller wafers. The large distance between substrates and boat sources and an elaborate heater design guarantee excellent film uniformity over the entire deposition area. YBCO - films deposited by this technique are commercially fabricated for a variety of applications - the most prominent are resistive fault current limiters and microwave filters for mobile or satellite communications. IMUX and OMUX - filters are currently space qualined by Robert Bosch GmbH and are expected to be launched and installed on an experimental platform of the international space station ALPHA in 2001. Both of the above applications require quite different film specifications on the one hand, but at the same time extremely high uniformity and reproducibility on the other hand, since hundreds of YBCO - films are combined to large systems or have to be approved for manned space missions. The success of such projects is direct evidence that the technique of thermal evaporation is readily capable to meet these high demands and has become the major deposition technique to support the emerging HTS market.

Recently many controversies originate for varies reasons, ranging from normal market competition to honest disagreements about rights. Disputes also arise from the clash between institutions and individuals. A free society should provide many systems for resolving controversies. We think of the courts as being primary, but, of course, they are not. In Korea, and in most other parts of the world, disagreements are resolved informally, without the need for judicial intervention. Settlements are worked out privately, usually without lawyers and certainly without judges. Most of judges are finding it difficult to cope with the needs and demands of society. Many businessmen who no longer want to get involved in lawsuits, are looking for alternative methods for resolving their disputes. However, there are actually two systems, litigation and arbitration only, to resolve disputes with binding both parties concerned. Litigation emphasizes on the equity and the justice with allowing three time's judgment for the resonable resolution, and arbitration, which is not subject to appeal, stress on the economic settlement rather than justice. Arbitration process results in a final and binding decisions. Although arbitration is a voluntary procedures that is created by the parties themselves, arbitration differs from mediation and conciliation because of its binding power. Arbitration is today coming into fashion as our primary methods for settling disputes. No company wants to have its funds tied up for long periods. Many parties prefer that the decision be final, rather than facing the prospect of extended appellate litigation. Therefore, government must encourage parties to settle their disputes by arbitration instead of litigation.

The study investigates the effects of a body that influences the nucleation and growth of crystal by experiment the application of zinc crystalline glaze to five of the most favorably used kinds of bodies sold in the market. As a result, in all bodies used in the test, willemite crystal is appeared on the surface and in the case of white porcelain, super white and white porcelain sculpture clay, beautiful crystals is developed. The reason that crystal does not grow and trickle down by sticking to the body in celadon clay and Sanchung clay is the large surface tension of glaze by ingredient CaO which is more often present compared to other bodies. In glaze, the ingredients $Al_2O_3$ and RO greatly influences the surface tension, and adhesion of the glaze and the body is completed by the glaze's power to stick, which is determined by the reaction of both the glaze and the body. However, in the case of Sanchung clay, the CaO in body reacts to the glaze, and glaze, on Sanchung clay, has tendency to run more compared with other bodies. It is supposed that this mechanism influences the growth of willemite crystal and the glaze's adhesion to the body.

Random walk hypothesis is a hypothesis that explains theoretically the difficulty in forecasting in financial market. Various tests for the hypothesis have been developed so far but it is known that those tests suffer from low power and size distortion. In this article, a sign test based on slopes are suggested to overcome these difficulties. A simulation study is conducted to compare this test to the often used Dickey and Fuller (1979) test.
