박완서의 소설은 여성문제, 자본주의 체제, 노년 문제 등을 현실감 있게 다룸으로써 문학계는 물론 여성학, 사회학 등 많은 분야에서 사회 현상의 분석 도구로 활용된다. 박완서 소설의 특징은 본인이 체험했던 사실들을 소설의 배경으로 배치한다. 하지만 소설 「미망」은 예외적으로 그가 경험하지 못한 일들을 전해 내려오는 이야기와 취재를 바탕으로 줄거리를 구성했다. 이는 잊지 못하는(未忘) 고향 개성 이야기를 통해서 시대정신을 보여 주려 한 것이다. 「미망」은 인삼재배와 상업을 기반으로 거대 자본가로 성장한 전처만과 그의 가족을 중심으로 한 4대에 걸친 가족 연대기가 줄거리를 이룬다. 19세기 후반부터 한국전쟁이 끝나는 시기까지를 배경으로 소설은 역사적 격동기에 살아왔던 인물의 행적을 중심으로 인삼과 개성상인이 상징하는 시대적 의미를 풀어낸다. 개성은 고려인삼의 메카로서 인삼과 개성상인 이야기를 빼고는 개성의 전형을 그릴 수 없다. 실재했던 사실들을 토대로 픽션이 가미된 「미망」은 근대사의 사료적 가치, 개성의 풍속사 뿐만아니라 미시사로서 인삼 역사의 소중한 증언이 담겨있다. 「미망」에는 개성의 시대상과 인삼 상인의 정신, 식민지 시절 일본의 인삼 약탈과 삼업인의 저항, 인삼 자본의 근대 자본주의로 전환 등의 흔적이 화석처럼 박혀있다. 특히 의미가 깊은 것은 소설 속 이야기들이 역사적 사실과 조응해 인삼사의 한 장(章)을 구성한다는 것이다. 「미망」에서 나타난 인삼의 상징성은 크게 세 가지로 볼 수 있다. 첫째, 고려인삼의 정기를 보여 준다. 인삼 농사의 정성과 까다로움, 삼업(蔘業) 정신과 자부심을 통해 인삼의 영물(靈物)스러움을 드러낸다. 둘째, 일본의 인삼 수탈을 민족수난사로 상징한다. 이를 지키려는 인삼 상인들의 노력과 독립운동 지원을 중요한 테마로 풀어내 민족정신을 나타낸다. 셋째, 지주, 상업 자본에 머물지 않고 생산 자본으로 전환, 근대기업화하고 사회에 기여하는 개성 인삼 상인의 근대 자본가적 진취성을 보여 준다. 세 개의 상징성은 그 당시 인삼 상인이 추구하던 시대정신을 보여 주는 것으로 우리 민족과 인삼의 관계를 더욱 명징하게 드러낸다.

Examining the patterns of evolution of interstate systems in Asia, this article argues that the relationship of state-builders to nomads stood in much of continental Asia stood in sharp contrast to the relationships between rulers and mercantile-financial elites in Europe. Due to the productivity of wet-rice economies, continental Asian rulers were not dependent on merchants and bankers to raise armies to wage war or suppress rebellions unlike their European counterparts. Hence they had no need to grant bankers and merchants concessions, especially monopolies which is how large volumes of capital are accumulated. Geographic conditions however meant that while the lack of internal frontiers meant that large continental-sized states could be created in China, this was not possible in the Indian subcontinent where a more chequered equilibrium where nomads enjoyed a military advantage in arid and semi-arid tracts meant that trans-subcontinental polities enjoyed only a fleeting existence. In mainland southeast Asia, where dense forests and a difficult terrain insulated the region from nomadic conquests, a third variant of interstate relations emerged.

The fraud exception rule allows for the issuing bank to dishonor the claim if it the documents and transactions bear fraud though the documents presented are complied with the terms and conditions of the letter of credit. A question arises whether the fraud exception rule can apply to innocent beneficiary when fraud is made by 3rd party. United City Merchants v. Royal Bank of Canada showed a good example how to handle in case of innocent beneficiary. At this case House of Lord found that innocent beneficiary deserves payment applying nullity exception rule. I believe that the nullity exception rule is employed for the benefit of innocent beneficiary as far as the issuer and applicant get no actual damage by the 3rd party's fraudulent action which is shown on documents.

The explosive growth of social commerce engenders a new business model, that is, infomediary. In a social commerce environment, infomediary works as a personal agent who provides information about various web merchants to help consumers select appropriate merchants for their needs. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors influencing consumer attitudes towards infomediaries in social commerce and examine the relationship between intention to provide word of mouth and consumer attitudes. In total, 170 responses were collected from social commerce infomediary users. The results show that competence and integrity significantly influence user attitudes as trust dimensions. Infomediary reputation and two functional factors (information variety and navigation functionality) turn out to be significant antecedents for user attitudes toward infomediary in social commerce. User attitudes in turn significantly influence the intention to provide word of mouth. Future research and practical implications are also discussed.

Recommendation Systems are information technologies that E-commerce merchants have adopted so that online shoppers can receive suggestions on items that might be interesting or complementing to their purchased items. These systems stipulate valuable assistance to the user's purchasing decisions, and provide quality of push service. Traditionally, Recommendation Systems have been designed using a centralized system, but information service is growing vast with a rapid and strong scalability. The next generation of information technology such as Cloud Computing and Big Data Environment has handled massive data and is able to support enormous processing power. Nevertheless, analytic technologies are lacking the different capabilities when processing big data. Accordingly, we are trying to design a conceptual service model with a proposed new algorithm and user adaptation on dynamic recommendation service for big data environment.

This study focuses on the imported silver goods from Japan and investigates the backgrounds of importing, trade items, and the amount of the exchange. This study also investigates the effects of the importing silver on Chosun society. A large amount of silver was imported from Japan and the amount of imported silver reached its maximum in Chosun Dynasty. Japan, on the other hand, imported a large quantity of cotton cloth from Chosun Dynasty. Silver was imported mainly because of the sumptuous moods among the royal family and the aristocracy. The moods were spread out to general people who made them wish for the luxurious and expensive chinese goods. To buy the luxurious goods, a lot of silver was imported from Japan. Importing a large quantity of silver fostered the sumptuous moods and also caused the price increase in the Chosun society. The order of the society became worse because of the individual trades of rich merchants who were closely connected to high officials.

Purpose - This study aimed to explore and examine the government policies and supporting systems of the traditional market in Korea. Research design / data / methodology - Recognizing these problems, the Korean government enacted three special legislations and adopted six support policies in support of the traditional markets. Results - Those markets with modernized stores, parking lots, and arcades have certainly increased sales and the number of customers. However, this uniform modernization support policy was short of supporting strategies that could have developed characteristics and advantages of each market, so many markets and merchants lost self-sustainable ability and ended up with relying on government support. Conclusions - The study indicates that Small & Medium Business Administration's role in implementing government policies including selection of the markets that needed to be modernized, developing commercial areas in connection with traditional market and neighboring shopping streets, customizing and improving distribution system, developing specialty stores, merchant college, merchants' self-sustainable ability, and creating convenient and safe shopping environment is vital to traditional markets' future success.

전자상거래의 지불시스템에서 전달되는 데이터는 무결성, 기밀성, 부인방지등이 확보되어야 한다. SET 프로토콜의 지불게이트웨이는 이러한 요구 조건을 충족시키기 위해 계산량이 많은 RSA 암호알고리즘을 과도하게 사용하고 있는데 이로 인해 거래가 절정을 이루는 시간대에는 지불 게이트웨이에 과다한 비밀키 연산들이 집중되어 병목 현상이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 SET 프로토콜의 지불시스템 승인단계에서 원타임패스워드를 적용하는 방안을 제안하고자 한다.

In the recommendation system of the credit card company, it is necessary to understand the customer patterns to predict a customer's next merchant based on their histories. The data we want to model is much more complex and there are various patterns that customers choose. In such a situation, it is necessary to use an effective model that not only shows the relevance of the merchants, but also the relevance of the customers relative to these merchants. The proposed model aims to predict the next merchant for the customer. To improve prediction performance, we propose a novel model, called Customer-based Recommendation Model (CRM), to produce a more efficient representation of customers. For the next merchant recommendation system, we use a synthetic credit card usage dataset, BC'17. To demonstrate the applicability of the proposed model, we also apply it to the next item recommendation with another real-world transaction dataset, IJCAI'16.
