The evaluation of food taste is one of the important activities of human consciousness and it is practiced by sensory analysis using 5 terminal sensorial consciousness among many other functions. These consciousness activities may be conducted by 3 way branching transformation (3-WBT) logic, which choose one out of 3 options under the multi-layered consciousness decision making system. On the basis of this logic, cognitive sensory evaluation (CSE) method was developed to carry out questionnaire survey covering objective and subjective issues during consumption of food for pregnant women. The results of the CSE for several food items was presented with the Table-pattern called CSET covering consciousness factors and their effects on the food consumers.

미국 DOE(Department of energy) 산하 EERE(the office of energy efficiency and renewable energy)에서는 시행되고 있는 일반 프로그램 평가(General Program Evaluation) 중 하나인 과정 평가(Process Evaluation)는 프로그램의 수행의 효율성과 유효성을 평가하기 위해 수행된다. EERE에서는 프로그램 별로 매 2~3년에 한번, 프로그램의 진행에 장애요인을 시행하기 위해 부정기적으로 과정평가를 수행하여 프로그램의 진행과정을 개선할 것을 제안하고 있다. 과정평가의 방법론으로는 사례연구(case study), 내용분석(content analysis), 메타평가(meta evaluation), 델파이분석(delphi-analysis), 외부 동료평가(peer review) 등의 방법론이 사용될 수 있다. 특히, EERE는 "Peer Review Guide(2004)"을 발간하여 과정평가에서 있어 외부 동료평가의 방법론을 정리하였다. 과정평가를 통해 프로그램 수행결과의 중간점검과 동시에 프로그램의 발전을 위하 전문가의 제언을 수집할 수 있다. 따라서 과정평가의 결과는 프로그램의 개선에 도움을 줄 수 있으며, 장기 과제인 경우 프로그램 관리에 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다. 우리나라의 경우, 사업 수행 시 '진도보고'나 '중간결과 발표' 등을 통하여 동일한 내용의 평가를 시행하고 있으나, 평가의 항목.시기.예산 등에 대한 지침(guideline)이 구축되었다고 볼 수 없는 상황이다. 한국의 신재생에너지 보급사업은 국가적인 중요도, 투입예산의 규모 및 수행기간 등을 고려할 때 과정평가를 통해 정기적으로 사업의 진행과정을 점검할 필요가 있다 하겠다. 따라서 신재생에너지 분야의 사업의 관리에 적용될 수 있는 EERE의 과정평가를 한국의 상황에 맞게 수정하고 이를 정규적으로 시행하는 방안에 대한 논의가 필요하다 하겠다.

The purpose of this paper is to design a job scheduling algorithm utilizing intelligent control technique. Rulebase is built through the evaluation of rule-set scheduling. 24 scheduling rule-sets and meta-rules are employed. An appropriate scheduling rule-set is selected based on this rulebase and current manufacturing system status. Six criteria have been used to evaluate the performance of scheduling. The performance of sheduling is dependent on random breakdown of the major FMS components during simulation.

As a research method that weighs and combines evidence, meta analysis produces evidence that is more powerful than the original studies. The purpose of this study was to compare the jntercanine/intermolar expansion and rapid/slow expansion in the maxillary expansion treatment using meta analysis. Medline was searched from 1979 to 2000 for all studies examining the stability of transverse expansion of the human maxilla, and 388 articles were found. Then these articles were reduced to 7 based on the defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, and a cumulative Meta evaluation score was computed for each study. The results were as follows; 1. The mean expansion in intermolar width was 6.0mm. of the 6.0mm, 4.8mm was retained and $20.0\%(1.2mm)$ was relapsed while wearing retainers. 2. In intercanines width, the mean expansion was 3.7mm. of the 3.7mm, 2.6mm was retained and $29.7\%(1.1mm)$ was relapsed while wearing retainers. 3. The differences In the amount of expansion and relapse between rapid expansion group and slow expansion group were less than $6\%(0.1-0.3mm)$. But, there might be differences in the skeletal/dental exapnsion ratios according to the expansion method.

Introduction: Although most prostate cancers initially respond to castration with luteinizing hormonereleasing analogues or bilateral orchiectomy, progression eventually occurs. Based on the exciting results of several randomized controlled trials (RCTs), it seems that patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) might benefit more from treatment withabiraterone. Therefore we conducted a systematic review to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of abiraterone in the treatment of mCRPC. Methods: Literature was searched from Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library up to July, 2013. Quality of the study was evaluated according to the Cochrane's risk of bias of randomized controlled trial (RCT) tool, then the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) System was used to rate the level of evidence. Stata 12.0 was used for statistical analysis. Summary data from RCTs comparing abiraterone plus prednisone versus placebo plus prednisone for mCRPC were meta-analyzed. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) for overall survival (OS), radiographic progression-free survival (RPFS) and time to PSA progression (TTPP); Pooled risk ratios (RR) for PSA response rate, objective response rate and adverse event were calculated. Results: Ten trials were included in the systematic review; Data of 2,283 patients (1,343 abiraterone; 940 placebo) from two phase 3 trials: COU-AA-301 and COU-AA-302 were meta-analyzed. Compared with placebo, abiraterone significantly prolonged OS (HR, 0.74; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.66 to 0.84), RPFS (HR, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.48 to 0.74) and time to PSA progression (HR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.43 to 0.70); it also significantly increased PSA response rate (RR, 3.63; 95% CI, 1.72 to 7.65) and objective response rate (RR, 3.05; 95% CI, 1.51 to 6.15). This meta-analysis suggested that the adverse events caused by abiraterone are acceptable and can be controlled. Conclutios: Abiraterone significantly prolonged OS, RPFS and time to progression patients with mCRPC, regardless of prior chemotherapy or whether chemotherapy-na$\ddot{i}$ve, and no unexpected toxicity was evident. Abiraterone can serve as a new standard therapy for mCRPC.

Objectives The objective of this study is to provide the evidence of the effectivness of herbal medicine for frozen shoulder. Methods 2 Korean medical on-line databases (Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System, Korean Traditional Knowledge), and 3 foreign databases (Pubmed, Cochrane library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure) were searched to find articles concerning herbal medicine for frozen shoulder. We selected randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Several repeated articles and those not relevant to the topic were excluded, as well as review articles and commentaries. The methodological quality of RCTs were evaluated using the Cochrane risk of bias tool and meta-analyes were perfomed. Results Total 474 studies were founded and 22 RCTs were selected for systematic review. Efficiency rate was used as the primary evaluation method. Almost studies reported that herbal medicine has significant effect on pain reduction, increasing shoulder function on frozen shoulder. 3 studies comparing herbal medicine and chuna with chuna and 3 studies comparing herbal medicine with ibuprofen were included in the meta-analysis. At herbal medicine and chuna with chuna meta-analysis, it showed positive results of herbal medicine for efficiency rate (risk ratio: 1.18, 95% confidence interval: 1.09-1.27, p<0.0001). At herbal medicine with ibuprofen medta-analysis, it showed positive results of herbal medicine for efficiency rate (risk ratio: 1.15, 95% confidence interval: 1.05-1.27, p=0.003). Conclusions The studies showed that herbal medicine can significantly effective on frozen shoulder. However, the risk of bias in RCTs were evaluated as uncertain. In the future, further well-designed RCTs are needed to prove the effectiveness of herbal medicine for frozen shoulder and reduce the risk of bias.

The value that students consider important in math learning may vary depending on the student's socio-cultural background and personal experience. Although socio-cultural backgrounds are very diverse, I considered overseas vs domestic Koreans, and secondary school levels as variables in terms of students' educational experiences. Overseas students had a lower perception of the value in mathematics than domestic students, especially about understanding mathematics knowledge and the value of the latest teaching and learning methods. Middle school students perceived the value of mathematics as an activity higher than that of high school students, and high school students perceived student agency as a higher value than middle school students. In addition, I considered meta-affect as one of the individual students' experiences, finally meta-affect was a variable that could explain value perception in math learning, and in particular, affective awareness of achievement, affective evaluation of value, and affective using were significant. From the results, I suggested that research on ways to improve the value and the meta-affect in math learning, test to measure the value of students in math learning, the expansion of research subjects to investigate the value in math learning, and a teacher who teaches overseas Koreans are needed.
