Calcium hydroxide produced by cement hydration decreases the durability and the compressive strength of cement mortars. Pozzolanic property of meta kaolin and silica fume allows to avoid this drawback. Calcium hydroxide consumption according to pozzolanic raction is evaluated by Fourier differential thermal analysis. Particulary the properties of high performance and high strength of cement mortar containing above 10% meta kaolin and silica fume were resulted in the pozzolanic activity.

This paper designs and implements fault-tolerant server of meta server for shared filesystem (SANfs) in SAN environment. SANfs is the filesystem that many clients can share data in Network-attached storage in SAN environment and meta server is the server that processes file operation in SANfs. The focus of this paper is the implementation of fault-tolerant server of meta server in SANfs. In the event of a meta server, meta server failovers to a fault-tolerant server where its processing continues seamlessly. If meta server doesn't restore, fault-tolerant server searches reliable client and makes another fault-tolerant server and work as meta server. Heartbeat monitors meta server and shadow server and controls them.

본 논문에서는 SAN 기반 공유 파일 시스템인 SANfs의 fault-tolerance를 보장받기 위해 fault-tolerant server인 shadow server를 구현하였다 SANfs(1)는 SAN에서 Network-attached storage에 접근하는 여러 클라이언트가 서로의 데이터를 공유할 수 있도록 도와주는 파일시스템이다. SANfs에서 파일 관리를 위해 meta server를 두고 있으며, 이 서버에서 네트워크를 통해 접근하는 털러 클라이언트의 request를 관리한다. SAMfs에서는 meta server를 통해 중앙 집중식으로 파일시스템을 관리하고 있기에 meta server가 fault가 나게 되면 전체 시스템의 동작이 멈추게 되는 single point-of-failure의 문제가 생기게 된다. 본 논문에서는 meta server가 fault가 났을 경우에도 지속적으로 서비스를 할 수 있도록 shadow server를 두었으며. 이 서버가 meta server의 이상 시 그 기능을 대행하도록 하였다. 본 논문의 shadow server는 평상시에 meta server와 파일시스템의 metadata의 동기를 맞추고 있으며, 이 정보를 가지고 meta server로 그 기능을 전환하였을 때 서비스를 해 주도록 하고 있다. 상대 서버의 이상 유무의 판단은 heartbeat를 통해 이루어지고 있으며, meta server로의 failover는 heartbeat의 주기에 영향을 받음을 실험을 통해 알게 되었다.

This paper presents a method for code generation of UML sequence diagrams based on message patterns. In the sequence diagrams, it is shown that messages are some types of forms typically. This paper classifies according to type as three patterns, and construct meta-information for code generation analysing structural infomation for each patterns. The meta-message of structural information (MetaMessage) is stored in the MetaMessage datastore and the meta-method information from the MetaMessage is stored in the MetaMethod datastore. And then, the structural information of MetaClass and MetaObject is constructed in each datastore too. For each pattern, this paper presents a method for code generation based on the meta information of message patterns and the syntax of target progamming language. Also, branching and looping that has been seldom handled integratedly in the previous works are handled as same as the basic patterns by classifying the branching pattern and the looping pattern for code generation integratedly.

This study introduces the construct of meta-parenting or a superordinate category of effortful cognition, including anticipation, assessment, reflection and problems. Also, it aims to analyse meta-parenting in terms of demographic variables and investigate how it relates to other cognitions on parenting and parenting behaviors. One hundred seventy three mothers of preschool children were surveyed on Hawk's (2007) Meta-Parenting, Sameroff and Feil's (1985) Concepts of Development, Stipek, Danniels, Galluzzo, & Milburn's (1992) Activities Sub-scales. They also commented on their views of appropriate methods of child-rearing and the starting age of extra-curricula activity and the number of extra-curricula activities. The main results were as follows: Mothers showed the highest score on assessment followed by anticipation, reflection and problems while these four components of meta-parenting were highly correlated to each other. Among demographic variables, only the mothers' age and education were linked to some component of meta-parenting. Meta-parenting was correlated with complexity of thinking but not with views on appropriate methods of child-rearing. Also, meta-parenting was associated with formal and informal activities at home and the beginning time of providing the extra-curricula activity with the total number of extra-curricula activities provided at present.

The ITA meta-model descriptions being promoted by Korean government was developed to build information technology architecture for applications in public institutions. However, the application of this ITA meta-model is not easy because of the complexity and overlapping between classes and attributes which reside in the ITA meta-models. Additionally, the National Defense Architecture is planned for development using the MND-AF. Since the National Defense Architecture must align with the Government ITA for interoperability and consistency, it is crucial the differences in the meta-models between MND-AF and Government ITA must be resolved. This study presents the trade-off results between the meta-models of MND-AF and Government ITA. It also proposes a set of tailored meta-models for use with the National Defense architecture development. The tailored meta-models use an ERA (Element, Relationship, Attribute) data structure that decreases complexity and eliminates the overlapping between classes and attributes.

Meta-cognition is the knowledge and cognition of cognitive phenomena, including the control of ones own memory, comprehension, and thought processes. Meta-cognition is similar to self-awareness, which is the understanding of oneself, and affects people's attitudes and behaviors. This study demonstrated the mediating effect of meta-cognition between internal locus of control and self-efficacy. Internal locus of control refers to the steady faith that any outcome is related to one's own efforts. Self-efficacy is a collection of personal strong belief that one individual can achieve his or her own goals. In this study, if a person has a tendency to adopt an internal locus of control, meta-cognition is improved, and self-efficacy can in turn be increased if meta-cognition is improved. This study conducted an empirical analysis through questionnaires conducted on 260 university students. The results of the research demonstrated that there is a highly positive correlation between meta-cognition, control position, and self-efficacy. In addition, this study emphasized that positive meta-cognition with internal locus of control can lead to positive attitudes and behaviors, and positive results.

Purpose: This study aimed to test a hypothetical model of Korean nurses' patient safety management activities using meta-analytic path analysis. Methods: A systematic review, meta-analysis, and meta-analytic path analysis were conducted following the PRISMA and MOOSE guidelines. Seventy-four studies for the meta-analysis and 92 for the meta-analytic path analysis were included. The R software program (Version 3.6.3) was used for data analysis. Results: Four variables out of 49 relevant variables were selected in the meta-analysis. These four variables showed large effect sizes (ESr = .54) or median effect sizes (ESr = .33~.40) with the highest k (number of studies) in the individual, job, and organizational categories. The hypothetical model for the meta-analytic path analysis was established using these variables and patient safety management activities. Twelve hypothetical paths were set and tested. Finally, the perception of the importance of patient safety management and patient safety competency directly affected patient safety management activities. In addition, self-efficacy, the perception of the importance of patient safety management, patient safety competency, and patient safety culture, indirectly affected patient safety management activities. Conclusion: Self-efficacy, the perception of the importance of patient safety management, patient safety competency, and the organization's patient safety culture should be enhanced to improve nurses' patient safety management activities.

Emerging technologies, such as multimedia and mobile computing, require that middleware platforms can support high adaptability in order to provide more flexible services in heterogeneous environments. To support high quality of service in distributed wired/wireless environments, it will be necessary for applications and middleware to be aware of changes in users requirements as well as environmental conditions, also to be able to adapt their behaviour as such changes. According to the needs of adaptability supporting in middleware, we structure a component-based, mobile agents framework in base level and meta level by using reflection. We propose concepts of meta agents and meta-service agents that are able to reflect changes made by mobile agents to the system. At the meta level of our framework, meta agents monitor execution of mobile agents and it is possible to provide dynamic adaptation of users requirements, deployment of application services and service customization with meta agents and meta-service agents.
