  • The leading paradigm of dentistry had been focused on the rehabilitation treatment that identifies active caries, manages them surgically, and restores their original functions. However, changes in the external environment including the current disease prevalence require dentistry to have a paradigm shift. The new paradigm suggests the detection of caries in their earlier stages over the visual diagnosis of cavities, and the reversal of the incipient caries by non-surgical approach. For this to be achieved, a high-technology detection device recognizing changes in the earlier stages which can not he visually observed is needed. Development of early caries detection device has recently become a major issue in preventive dentistry on account of this need, and QLF(Quantitified Light induced Fluorescence) conspicuously stands out among the newly released devices. In this study, the fundamental concept of QLF(Quantitified Light induced Fluorescence) and the possible clinical applications of the earlier intraoral camera model as well as the recently designed digital camera model will be discussed.

  • MediaGIS is a concept of tightly integrated multimedia with spatial information. VideoGIS is an example of MediaGIS focused on the interaction or interaction of video and spatial information. Our suggested GeoVideo, a new concept of VideoGIS has its key feature in interactiveness. In GeoVideo, the geographic tasks such as browsing, searching, querying, spatial analysis can be performed based on video itself. GeoVideo can have the meaning of paradigm shift from artificial, static, abstracted and graphical paradigm to natural, dynamic, real, and image-based paradigm. We discuss about the integration of video and geography and also suggest the GeoVideo system design. Several considerations on expanding the functionalities of GeoVideo are explained for the future works.

  • This paper discusses the next direction for user experience design to keep pace with an ongoing IT paradigm shift, particularly focused on UX standardization activity contributing to reinforcement of brand power and customer loyalty. The paper introduces a model that identifies four levels of UX standardization and a key concept called "sustainable UX ecosystem" as its top level. It argues that in the new IT paradigm the fourth level of UX standardization, the sustainable UX ecosystem, is the next direction user experience must head towards.

  • Mechanical world view was built by Newton and Decarte approximately 400 years ago. Modern Society has reached at the time for fundamental adjustment and in effect, the paradigm shift is now under way. The new paradigm is the holistic world view that considers the world as the integrated entirety rather than the unity of separated parts. The pluralistic phase which can be considered as general characteristics observed in the art, society and culture in the end of the 20th century is seen as the reflection of this new world view. the complementary relationship between traditionism and modernity and oriental intuitive, holistic approach and western rational analytical approach can be explained when the complementary relationship is recognized with holistic and integrated view. The holistic paradigm and integrated-artistic view are the new aesthetic value which can suggest an alternative for public art of environmental design.

  • Biotechnology in the 21st century will be driven by three emerging technologies: genomics, high-throughput biology, and bioinformatics. These technologies are complementary to one another. A large number of economically important crops are currently subjected to whole genome sequencing. Functional genomics for determining the functions of the genes comprising the given plant genome is under progress by using various means including phenotyping data from transgenic mutants, gene expression profiling data from DNA microarrays, and metabolic profiling data from LC/mass analysis. The aim of plant molecular breeding is shifting from introducing agronomic traits such as herbicide and insect resistance to introducing quality traits such as healthful oils and proteins, which will lead to improved and nutritional food and feed products. Plant molecular breeding is also expected to aim to develop crops for producing human therapeutic and industrial proteins.

  • The e-Government in Korea has made such good results as improvement of official work productivity and citizen service quality. However, e-Government in Korea involves many problems and subjects to must solve, especially, at the side of citizen services. Every public organization as supplier provides each service of themselves to the civilians. Citizens feel inconvenience yet, because they must visit and are supplied various civil services to one public affair from several public institutions. When we consider the paradigm shift of the e-Government service, the status and problems of the e-Government in Korea required more better service model to the citizen. To realize the citizen oriented service, the integration and linkage of the system infrastructure and applications among governmental organizations are required. In this changed situation, when new one/non-stop service model of the digital government is developed and launched, the e-Government can supply better service to the citizens. In this study, the model that we suggest is among the new service models of the e-Government, named the Integrated Civil Service Model. The e-Government involving the Integrated Civil Service Model can make more outcome, such as better civil life convenience, cost-effective results by processing time and cost reduction for public affairs of citizens.
