본 논문에서는 L-밴드 대역 레이더 후방 산란 측정용 도파관 직교 모드 변환기(orthomode transducer)의 소형화에 대한 설계 및 성능 분석 결과를 제시한다. 도파관 직교 모드 변환기는 테이퍼(taper) 구조를 기본으로 새롭게 설계된 접합 구조를 이용하여 별도의 테이퍼 구조 없이 표준 어댑터와 연결이 가능하도록 설계/제작되었다. 소형화된 L-밴드 직교 모드 변환기의 최대 길이는 약 1.2 ${\lambda}_o$(310 mm)이며, 이는 기존의 동급 직교 모드 변환기 크기의 약 60 % 수준이 된다. 또한, 직교 모드 변환기의 포트 정합 특성과 편파 격리도 특성을 높이기 위해서 두 개의 금속봉을 구조 내부에 삽입하여 운용 주파수 대역 내 420 MHz의 대역폭(반사 손실<-15 dB 이하)과 약 40 dB의 높은 편파 격리도 성능을 얻을 수 있었다. 제작된 직교 모드 변환기, 혼 안테나, 네트워크 분석기(Agilent사(社)8753E)로 구성된 L-밴드 scatterometer를 이용한 레이더 후방 산란 측정의 정확도 분석을 위해 STCT(Single Target Calibration Technique) 보정 기법과 2DTST(2D Target Scanning Technique) 자동 측정 기법을 이용하였다. 보정된 scatterometer를 이용하여 측정된 시험용 목표물(55 cm 삼각 수동 전파 반사기)의 RCS(Radar Cross Section)의 측정 오차는 수직/수평 편파 각각 -0.2 dB와 0.25 dB이며, 유효 편파 격리도는 대역 내 평균 약 35.8 dB이다. 이때, 성능 측정을 위해 직교 모드 변환기와 함께 사용된 혼 안테나는 길이 300 mm, 개구면 크기 $450{\times}450\;mm^2$이며, E-평면 $29.5^{\circ}$와 H-평면 $36.5^{\circ}$의 반전력 빔 폭(HPBW)을 갖는다.

본 연구에서는 KoFlux네트워크 타워 관측소의 하나인 광릉 낙엽 활엽수림에서 최초로 직접 관측된 이산화탄소 플럭스를 보고한다. 2002년 6월부터 8월까지 에디 공분산 시스템을 다른 기상 관측 기기들과 함께 30 m 타워에 설치하였다. 관측 장소가 계곡과 같은 경사지에 위치해 있음에도 불구하고 관측된 난류 특성이, 제한된 풍향(즉, 90$\pm$45$^{\circ}$)의 경우, 평평하고 균질한 이상적인 장소에서 관측된 것들과 크게 다르지 않았다. 관측 자료 회수율은 비록 낮았으나, 분석된 예비 결과는 고무적이고, 연구해야 할 가치가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이류 항을 무시하면, 생태계의 순 $CO_2$ 교환(NEE)은 6월에서 8월까지 약 -1.2에서 0.7 mg m$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$의 범위를 보였다. 약한 난류가 야간 NEE에 미치는 효과를 마찰 속도(u*)및 저류 항의 산출과 관련하여 살펴보았다. 낮은 u*가 NEE에 미치는 영향은 약 0.2 m s$^{-1}$의 문턱 값을 기점으로 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 야간 NEE에 미치는 저류 항의 역할은 거의 나타나지 않았는데, 이는 밤 동안 산림 내에 축적된 $CO_2$가 경사면을 따라 배수류로 빠져나갔기 때문인 것으로 사료된다. 이는 또한 저류 항을 한 높이에서만 관측된 농도 자료를 사용함으로 생긴 오차로 인한 인위적인 결과일 수도 있다. 쌍곡선 광 반응식을 적용한 결과, 관측된 NEE 변화의 80% 이상이 설명되어, 이 산림 지역의 $CO_2$ 교환이 주로 빛에 의해 조절됨을 보여주었다. 이러한 관계식은 계절에 걸쳐 빠진 자료를 채워 넣는 자료 처리 과정에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 마지막으로, 선형류 모형에 근거한 간단한 규모 분석에 의하면, 이류항의 효과가 NEE산출에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 Clark 모형의 시간-면적곡선의 구성 방법과 적용성을 검토하고 모멘트 원리에 의한 도달시간, 저류상수를 합리적으로 산정하기 위한 방법론을 고찰해 보았다. 격자 기반으로 폭 함수를 구성하고 운동과정을 순수 이류현상으로 가정하여 시간-면적곡선으로 사용하였다. 또한 도달시간과 저류상수는 모멘트 법의 원리에 따라 Clark 모형 구조에 적용하여 해석적으로 산정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 적용성 검토를 위해 (1) HEC-1에서 기본적으로 제공하는 좌우 대칭형상인 무차원 시간-면적곡선을 적용하고 매개변수 산정은 관측유출수문곡선과 계산된 유출수문곡선의 오차를 최소화하는 HEC-1의 최적화 기법 사용, (2) HEC-1에 폭 함수 기반의 시간-면적곡선을 적용하고 매개변수 산정은 HEC-1의 최적화 기법 사용, (3) 폭 함수 기반의 시간-면적곡선을 이용하여 모멘트 원리에 따라 매개변수를 직접 산정하는 방법을 적용하였다. 방법별로 산정된 Clark 모형의 매개변수들을 HEC-1을 이용하여 직접유출량을 산정하고 관측 직접유출량과 비교하여 얻은 결과는 다음과 같다. (1) 정량적으로 비교하기 위해 산정한 첨두유량과 첨두발생 시간의 상대오차 및 효율계수 E(Efficiency Coefficient)를 비교한 결과, 시간-면적곡선을 폭 함수로 대체하여 HEC-1으로부터 추정된 매개변수가 관측값을 잘 반영하였다. (2) Clark 모형의 올바른 적용을 위해서는 HEC-1에서 기본적으로 제공하는 좌우 대칭형상인 무차원 시간-면적곡선보다는 적용 대상유역의 배수구조가 적절하게 반영된 시간-면적곡선의 사용이 합리적일 것으로 판단된다. (3) 본 연구 방법은 첨두유량과 첨두시간의 상대오차 범위와 재현정도를 나타내는 효율계수를 비교하여 볼 때 대체로 양호하게 모의되었고, 대상유역별 유량측정성과인 하천평균유속과 비교했을 때 본 연구 방법이 다소 실제 유속에 접근하고 있음을 확인하였다. (4) 본 연구에서 모멘트 원리를 기반으로 제안한 매개변수 추정을 위한 방법은 유역의 이류현상과 저류현상을 정량적으로 계량할 수 있는 효율적인 관계식으로 사용할 수 있음을 확인하였다. (5) 본 방법에 의해 계산된 수문곡선이 대부분 관측수문곡선의 우측으로 왜곡되고 첨두유량은 과소평가 되는 것을 보이고 있다. 이것은 평균과 분산만을 고려하여 유역을 하나의 평균이송속도로 모의한 본 연구의 한계점으로 판단된다. 만약 모멘트의 왜곡도를 고려하고 유역을 지표면과 하천으로 나누어 평균이송속도를 모의한다면 물리적인 특성을 충분히 반영하여 매개변수를 추정 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

오늘날 치열한 경쟁과 환경변화로 인해 많은 기업들은 고객관계관리(Customer Relationship Management, 이하 CRM)를 경영혁신의 도구로 인식하고 많은 투자 및 노력을 기울이고 있다. CRM 시스템의 개선 및 전략적 보완을 위한 지속적 노력과 더불어 이에 대한 이론적 연구가 활발하게 실시되었지만, 시스템 도입이 기업성과에 미치는 영향에 대한 실증연구는 포괄적으로 다루어지지 않았다. 최근 국내 금융업, 호텔, 항공 등의 분야에서 고객관계관리 도입으로 인한 기업성과에 대한 실증연구가 실시되었고, 외국에서는 병원관리학을 중심으로 균형성과표의 활용에 대한 연구가 실시되었지만, 국내 제약산업에 대해서는 이러한 연구들이 매우 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제약회사 고객관리 시스템의 수준이 Kaplan and Norton에 의해 제안된 균형성과표의 이론적 틀에 따라 기업성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 연구해 보고자 하였다. 실증분석결과, CRM 시스템 수준은 기업성과에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 시스템이 제공하는 유용한 분석자료들이 고객유지, 고객만족 및 고객수익성 개선에 유의적인 영향을 주어 결과적으로 기업의 수익성, 성장성 및 주주가치 증대에 폭 넓게 기여하며, 효율적 내부 프로세스로 뒷받침되는 바람직한 선순환구조를 제시하고 있다고 생각된다. 그러나 세부분석결과, 영업사원실적평가 시스템은 단기수익성 증대에만 유의적 영향을 주었고, 고객 분석시스템은 기업성과에 미치는 유의성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 제약회사 구성원들의 전통적 업무방식 고수, 단기목표 지향성 및 장기적 기업성과지표에 대한 인식 부족에서 기인한다고 생각된다. 연구결과, 제약기업에 보다 적합한 CRM 시스템의 개발과 보완, 인식률과 활용도 제고의 필요성이 제안되며, 표본 확대 및 대표성 개선을 통해 보다 의미 있는 연구결과가 제시될 수 있을 것이다.

기업 혹은 조직 거버넌스의 하위개념인 비즈니스 거버넌스와 IT 거버넌스는 학계에서 주요 연구과제가 되어 왔다. 그러나 비즈니스와 IT 도메인의 매개적 구조체로서 프로세스의 중요성에도 불구하고, 프로세스 거버넌스(PG)의 연구는 상대적으로 미흡하였다. PG는 비즈니스 전략을 IT시스템 구현과 연계하는 활동에 집중하며, 기업의 본원적 가치 창조 활동을 설명한다. 본 논문은 정치학, 사회학, 행정학에서의 기본적인 거버넌스 개념을 연구하고, 거버넌스 유형을 6개의 카테고리로 분류했다. 그리고 PG에 대한 일련의 메타모델을 제안한다. 예를 들면 전통적인 핸더슨과 벤카트라만의 SAM모델을 수정한 neo-SAM 모델, 조직 거버넌스 네트워크 모델, 조직거버넌스 순차모델, 조직 거버넌스 메타모델, 프로세스 거버넌스 큐브 모델, COSO와 프로세스 거버넌스의 비교 모델, 마지막으로 프로세스 거버넌스 프레임워크 등이다. SAM모델과 neo-SAM 모델의 주요한 차이점은 비즈니스 거버넌스와 IT 거버넌스 사이에 프로세스 거버넌스 도메인을 포함한 것이다. 여러 개의 메타 모델 중에서, 프로세스 거버넌스 프레임워크가 핵심 개념 모델로서 이는 4개의 활동차원 - 전략연계, 권한강화, 직능향상, 자율조직 - 으로 구성된다. 연구자는 각 활동차원 별로 5개씩 총 20개의 변인을 설계했다. 4개의 활동차원 외에도 프로세스 거버넌스 사이클을 움직이는 6개의 순환 동력 - 탈규범력, 미시권력, 활력, 자기조직력, 규범력, 센스메이킹 - 이 있다. 4개의 활동차원과 6개의 동력으로 조직은 내외부의 환경 변화에 대한 프로세스 거버넌스의 융통성을 유지할 수 있다. 본 연구는 프로세스 거버넌스 역량 모델과 프로세스 거버넌스 변인을 제안하는 목적을 가진다. 업계환경은 기능 중심 조직관리에서 프로세스 중심 관점으로 변화하고 있다. 연구자가 제안하는 프로세스 거버넌스 프레임워크가 향후 프로세스 거버넌스 도메인의 연구 확산을 위한 맥락적 참조모델과 아울러 프로세스 거버넌스 측정도구의 개발을 위한 조작적 정의의 틀을 제공할 것이다.

탁도는 부유물질에 의한 빛의 산란 또는 흡수로 인한 수체의 흐림을 나타내는 수치로 수질 관리 분야에서 중요 지표로 활용되고 있다. 탁도는 소규모의 하천에서 변동성이 심할 수 있으며, 이는 국가하천의 수질에 직접적으로 영향을 준다. 따라서 고해상도의 탁도 공간정보 산출은 매우 중요하다. 이 연구에서는 Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-3 및 -3A (KOMPSAT-3/3A) 영상으로부터 한강 수계 하천의 고해상도 탁도 매핑을 위한 eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) 알고리즘 기반의 탁도 산출 모델을 개발하였다. 이를 위해 총 24장의 KOMPSAT-3/3A 영상과 150장의 Landsat-8 영상으로부터 계산된 대기 상단(Top Of Atmosphere, TOA) 반사율을 활용하였으며, Landsat-8 TOA 반사율은 KOMPSAT-3/3A의 관측 파장 대역에 적합하도록 교차검보정을 수행하였다. 국가수질자동관측망에서 측정된 탁도를 탁도 산출 모델의 참조자료로 사용하였고, 입력 변수로는 탁도가 실측된 위치에서의 TOA 분광반사율과 탁도 분석에 널리 이용되어 온 분광지수인 정규식생지수, 정규수분지수, 정규탁도지수, 그리고 Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)의 대기 산출물(에어로졸 광학 두께, 수증기량, 오존)을 사용하였다. 또한 고탁도와 저탁도에 대한 KOMPSAT-3/3A TOA 분광반사율을 분석하여 탁도를 설명할 수 있는 새로운 정규탁도지수(new normalized difference turbidity index, nNDTI)를 제안하였고, 이를 탁도 산출 모델에 입력 변수로 추가하였다. XGBoost 기반 탁도 산출 모델은 현장관측 탁도와 비교하여 2.70 NTU의 평균 제곱근 오차(root mean square error, RMSE) 및 14.70%의 정규화된 RMSE(normalized RMSE)를 가지는 탁도를 예측하여 우수한 성능을 보였으며, 이 연구에서 새롭게 제안한 nNDTI가 탁도 산출에 있어 가장 중요한 변수로 사용되었다. 개발된 탁도 산출 모델을 KOMPSAT-3/3A 영상에 적용하여 하천 탁도를 고해상도로 매핑하였으며, 탁도의 시공간적 변동에 대한 분석이 가능하였다. 이 연구를 통하여 고해상도의 정확한 탁도 공간정보 산출에 KOMPSAT-3/3A 영상이 매우 유용함을 확인할 수 있었다.

위성에서 보다 미세한 공간 분해능으로 신뢰할 수 있는 지상 강우 관측은 도시 수문학적 및 미시적 농업 수요에 필수적이다. 전통적으로 "톱다운" 접근 방식 기반 위성 강우 산출물이 널리 사용되고 있지만 공간 분해능에 한계가 있다. 본 연구는 C-밴드 SAR Sentinel-1 위성 데이터(SM2RAIN-S1)에 적용되는 매개 변수화된 SM2RAIN 모델인 강우 추정을 위한 새로운 "상향식" 접근 방식의 가능성을 평가하여 중부지방에 대한 높은 공간 분해능 지상 강우 추정치(0.01° 그리드/6일)를 생성하는 것을 목표로 한다. 그것의 성능은 중부지방 두 개의 다른 하위 지역, 즉 혼합 산림 중심, 중간 하위 지역, 그리고 경작 중심, 서해안 하위 지역의 1년 기간 동안 기존의 재분석 프로덕트와 우량계 네트워크의 각각의 강우 데이터를 사용하여 공간 및 시간적 가변성에 대해 평가되었다. 평가결과에 따르면 SM2RAIN-S1 프로덕트는 중부지방의 일반적인 강우 패턴을 포착할 수 있고, 서로 다른 토지 피복으로 지역 규모에서 공간 분해능 강우량 측정 가능성을 보유할 수 있으며, 강우량 관측치에 대한 편중된 강우량 추정치가 제공되었다. 또한 SM2RAIN-S1 강우량은 피어슨의 상관 계수(R = 0.69)를 고려할 때 혼합림에서 더 우수했으며, 이는 혼합림에서 토양 수분과 강우의 시간 역학을 포착하는 데 6일 SM2RAIN-S1 데이터의 적합성을 암시했다. 그러나, RMSE와 바이어스 측면에서, 혼합림보다는 경작지의 SM2RAIN-S1 강우 생성물에서 더 나은 성능을 얻었으며, 이는 높은 증발증산 손실(특히 혼합림)에 의해 유도된 더 큰 오류를 SM2RAIN의 추가 개선에 포함해야 한다는 것을 나타낸다.

새만금호는 우리나라 최대의 인공호수로 호수의 수질은 갈수록 악화되어 가고 있어 호수의 특성에 맞는 새로운 수질관리 대책이 필요하다. 이에 새만금호의 국가수질측정망 자료를 이용하여 통계분석 기법에 의한 새만금호의 시공간적 수질특성을 분석하였다. 수질항목간의 상관성에서 수온과 TP는 상관성이 있고, 염분과 TN, 그리고 pH와 COD가 상관성이 높았다. 그 외 항목들 간에는 낮은 상관성을 나타내어 관련성이 낮았다. 주성분 분석을 이용한 새만금호의 공간적 수질특성을 보면, 크게 4개의 그룹으로 구분되었는데, 담수 영향구역과 해수 영향구역, 해수와 담수가 혼합되는 중간 수역이 2개 그룹으로 구분되어 각각 다른 수질특성을 나타내었다. 주성분분석을 이용한 시간적 수질특성은 계절적으로 4가지 그룹으로 구분되었다. 그룹I은 늦봄과 초여름에 해당되는 5, 6월이고, 그룹 II는 계절적으로 초봄(3, 4월)과 늦가을(11, 12월)에 해당되는 시기로 나타났으며, 그룹 III은 낮은 수온에 의한 용존산소의 증가가 나타나는 계절인 겨울철(1, 2월)의 수질 특성을 보였고, 그룹 IV는 하계(7, 8, 9, 10월) 성층의 발달로 저층 퇴적물의 높은 인농도와 하계 고수온의 상관성을 가지는 그룹으로 구분되었다. 이는 새만금호가 인위적으로 조성된 호수로써 상류 만경강과 동진강의 유입 영향을 받는 것과 동시에 새만금 방조제에 설치된 가력과 신시갑문을 통한 외해수 유입의 영향을 받음으로써 수질의 변동요소가 달라진 것으로 평가된다. 새만금호의 목표수질을 달성하기 위해서는 상류 유역의 오염원 관리 대책과 함께 새만금호의 수질관리 대책을 수립할 필요가 있다.

Digital Convergence means integration between industry, technology, and contents, and in marketing, it usually comes with creation of new types of product and service under the base of digital technology as digitalization progress in electro-communication industries including telecommunication, home appliance, and computer industries. One can see digital convergence not only in instruments such as PC, AV appliances, cellular phone, but also in contents, network, service that are required in production, modification, distribution, re-production of information. Convergence in contents started around 1990. Convergence in network and service begins as broadcasting and telecommunication integrates and DMB(digital multimedia broadcasting), born in May, 2005 is the symbolic icon in this trend. There are some positive and negative expectations about DMB. The reason why two opposite expectations exist is that DMB does not come out from customer's need but from technology development. Therefore, customers might have hard time to interpret the real meaning of DMB. Time is quite critical to a high tech product, like DMB because another product with same function from different technology can replace the existing product within short period of time. If DMB does not positioning well to customer's mind quickly, another products like Wibro, IPTV, or HSPDA could replace it before it even spreads out. Therefore, positioning strategy is critical for success of DMB product. To make correct positioning strategy, one needs to understand how consumer interprets DMB and how consumer's interpretation can be changed via communication strategy. In this study, we try to investigate how consumer perceives a new product, like DMB and how AD strategy change consumer's perception. More specifically, the paper segment consumers into sub-groups based on their DMB perceptions and compare their characteristics in order to understand how they perceive DMB. And, expose them different printed ADs that have messages guiding consumer think DMB in specific ways, either cellular phone or personal TV. Research Question 1: Segment consumers according to perceptions about DMB and compare characteristics of segmentations. Research Question 2: Compare perceptions about DMB after AD that induces categorization of DMB in direction for each segment. If one understand and predict a direction in which consumer perceive a new product, firm can select target customers easily. We segment consumers according to their perception and analyze characteristics in order to find some variables that can influence perceptions, like prior experience, usage, or habit. And then, marketing people can use this variables to identify target customers and predict their perceptions. If one knows how customer's perception is changed via AD message, communication strategy could be constructed properly. Specially, information from segmented customers helps to develop efficient AD strategy for segment who has prior perception. Research framework consists of two measurements and one treatment, O1 X O2. First observation is for collecting information about consumer's perception and their characteristics. Based on first observation, the paper segment consumers into two groups, one group perceives DMB similar to Cellular phone and the other group perceives DMB similar to TV. And compare characteristics of two segments in order to find reason why they perceive DMB differently. Next, we expose two kinds of AD to subjects. One AD describes DMB as Cellular phone and the other Ad describes DMB as personal TV. When two ADs are exposed to subjects, consumers don't know their prior perception of DMB, in other words, which subject belongs 'similar-to-Cellular phone' segment or 'similar-to-TV' segment? However, we analyze the AD's effect differently for each segment. In research design, final observation is for investigating AD effect. Perception before AD is compared with perception after AD. Comparisons are made for each segment and for each AD. For the segment who perceives DMB similar to TV, AD that describes DMB as cellular phone could change the prior perception. And AD that describes DMB as personal TV, could enforce the prior perception. For data collection, subjects are selected from undergraduate students because they have basic knowledge about most digital equipments and have open attitude about a new product and media. Total number of subjects is 240. In order to measure perception about DMB, we use indirect measurement, comparison with other similar digital products. To select similar digital products, we pre-survey students and then finally select PDA, Car-TV, Cellular Phone, MP3 player, TV, and PSP. Quasi experiment is done at several classes under instructor's allowance. After brief introduction, prior knowledge, awareness, and usage about DMB as well as other digital instruments is asked and their similarities and perceived characteristics are measured. And then, two kinds of manipulated color-printed AD are distributed and similarities and perceived characteristics for DMB are re-measured. Finally purchase intension, AD attitude, manipulation check, and demographic variables are asked. Subjects are given small gift for participation. Stimuli are color-printed advertising. Their actual size is A4 and made after several pre-test from AD professionals and students. As results, consumers are segmented into two subgroups based on their perceptions of DMB. Similarity measure between DMB and cellular phone and similarity measure between DMB and TV are used to classify consumers. If subject whose first measure is less than the second measure, she is classified into segment A and segment A is characterized as they perceive DMB like TV. Otherwise, they are classified as segment B, who perceives DMB like cellular phone. Discriminant analysis on these groups with their characteristics of usage and attitude shows that Segment A knows much about DMB and uses a lot of digital instrument. Segment B, who thinks DMB as cellular phone doesn't know well about DMB and not familiar with other digital instruments. So, consumers with higher knowledge perceive DMB similar to TV because launching DMB advertising lead consumer think DMB as TV. Consumers with less interest on digital products don't know well about DMB AD and then think DMB as cellular phone. In order to investigate perceptions of DMB as well as other digital instruments, we apply Proxscal analysis, Multidimensional Scaling technique at SPSS statistical package. At first step, subjects are presented 21 pairs of 7 digital instruments and evaluate similarity judgments on 7 point scale. And for each segment, their similarity judgments are averaged and similarity matrix is made. Secondly, Proxscal analysis of segment A and B are done. At third stage, get similarity judgment between DMB and other digital instruments after AD exposure. Lastly, similarity judgments of group A-1, A-2, B-1, and B-2 are named as 'after DMB' and put them into matrix made at the first stage. Then apply Proxscal analysis on these matrixes and check the positional difference of DMB and after DMB. The results show that map of segment A, who perceives DMB similar as TV, shows that DMB position closer to TV than to Cellular phone as expected. Map of segment B, who perceive DMB similar as cellular phone shows that DMB position closer to Cellular phone than to TV as expected. Stress value and R-square is acceptable. And, change results after stimuli, manipulated Advertising show that AD makes DMB perception bent toward Cellular phone when Cellular phone-like AD is exposed, and that DMB positioning move towards Car-TV which is more personalized one when TV-like AD is exposed. It is true for both segment, A and B, consistently. Furthermore, the paper apply correspondence analysis to the same data and find almost the same results. The paper answers two main research questions. The first one is that perception about a new product is made mainly from prior experience. And the second one is that AD is effective in changing and enforcing perception. In addition to above, we extend perception change to purchase intention. Purchase intention is high when AD enforces original perception. AD that shows DMB like TV makes worst intention. This paper has limitations and issues to be pursed in near future. Methodologically, current methodology can't provide statistical test on the perceptual change, since classical MDS models, like Proxscal and correspondence analysis are not probability models. So, a new probability MDS model for testing hypothesis about configuration needs to be developed. Next, advertising message needs to be developed more rigorously from theoretical and managerial perspective. Also experimental procedure could be improved for more realistic data collection. For example, web-based experiment and real product stimuli and multimedia presentation could be employed. Or, one can display products together in simulated shop. In addition, demand and social desirability threats of internal validity could influence on the results. In order to handle the threats, results of the model-intended advertising and other "pseudo" advertising could be compared. Furthermore, one can try various level of innovativeness in order to check whether it make any different results (cf. Moon 2006). In addition, if one can create hypothetical product that is really innovative and new for research, it helps to make a vacant impression status and then to study how to form impression in more rigorous way.

The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert.

We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique.

Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies.
