This paper discussed about business ethics and innovation management performance of IT service firms in Korea. To prove empirically the research hypothesis, the statistical analysis was based on the response from the 92 IT Service firms in Korean. As analysis results, it was found that the business ethics of organizations were the effect factors of the innovation management performance. And the knowledge competency and creativity are confirmed as a mediator between the business ethics and innovation management performance. So this paper suggests that business ethics in organizations are the important factor for enhancement of IT service firm's innovation performance. Specially the mediation effects of knowledge competency and creativity variables were proved empirically for the relation between the business ethics and innovation management performance. So it is desirable that knowledge-based service firms, for example IT service firms, have to strive to upgrade their level of business ethics and to link with their creativity and knowledge competency.

ASBU (aviation system block upgrade)의 핵심 시스템 중 하나인 ADS-B (automatic dependent surveillance - broadcast) 시스템을 설계하고 구현하였다. ADS-B 시스템은 4개의 블록과 10개의 유닛으로 구성되어 있으며, 구현된 ADS-B 시스템에 필터링 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 구현된 ADS-B 시스템의 성능평가를 위해 실제 항공기 데이터를 이용하였으며, 신뢰도가 확보된 레이더 데이터와 비교하였다. 또한 필터링 알고리즘을 적용한 ADS-B 데이터와 기존의 ADS-B 데이터를 항공기 선회, 이륙, 착륙, 순항 등 다양한 상황에서 비교하였다. 성능평가 결과, 구현된 ADS-B 데이터와 레이더 데이터 간의 항공기 위치 차이는 99.57 m이고, 필터링 알고리즘을 적용한 ADS-B 데이터와 기존의 ADS-B 데이터 간의 항공기 위치 차이는 평균 8.02 m로 나타났다.

Background and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of revision cochlear implant (CI) surgery for better speech comprehension targeting patients with low satisfaction after first CI surgery. Subjects and Methods: Eight patients who could not upgrade speech processors because of an too early CI model and who wanted to change the whole system were included. After revision CI surgery, we compared speech comprehension before and after revision CI surgery. Categoies of Auditory Performance (CAP) score, vowel and consonant confusion test, Ling 6 sounds, word and sentence identification test were done. Results: The interval between surgeries ranged from eight years to 19 years. Same manufacturer's latest product was used for revision surgery in six cases of eight cases. Full insertion of electrode was possible in most of cases (seven of eight). CAP score (p-value=0.01), vowel confusion test (p-value=0.041), one syllable word identification test (p-value=0.026), two syllable identification test (p-value=0.028), sentence identification test (p-value=0.028) had significant improvement. Consonant confusion test (p-value=0.063), Ling 6 sound test (p-value=0.066) had improvement but it is not significant. Conclusions: Although there are some limitations of our study design, we could identify the effect of revision (upgrade) CI surgery indirectly. So we concluded that if patient complain low functional gain or low satisfaction after first CI surgery, revision (device upgrade) CI surgery is meaningful even if there is no device failure.

The economic consequences of large earthquakes require a revolutionary change in the seismic performance objective of residential and commercial buildings. The majority of total construction costs consist of non-structural and architectural costs. Therefore, the aim of this research is to upgrade current Life Safety performance objectives and to offset adverse effects on country's economy after an occurrence of large earthquakes. However, such a proposal cannot easily prove the feasibility of cost-benefit analysis in structural design. In this paper, six generic reinforced concrete frames and dual system structures designed based on Turkish Seismic Code were used in cost analysis. The study reveals that load bearing structural systems with Immediate Occupancy performance level in seismic zones can be achieved with negligible costs.

최근 데이터 폭증으로 인한 시스템 및 스토리지 성능저하에 따른 upgrade와 용량증설 등의 요구가 거세지고 있어 단편적인 증설에 의한 해결보다는 보다 근원적이고 장기적 관점의 해결책이 요구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 해결책으로 기업의 운영 중인 스토리지 시스템의 운영 상태와 데이터 가치 분석을 통한 정보수명주기 기반 스토리지 계층화 방안을 개선안으로 제시하고 구현하였다. 본 연구를 통해 체계화된 데이터 관리방안 수립과 정보수명주기 기반 계층화된 스토리지 시스템으로 재구성한 후 기존 대비 약 21%의 전체 Throughput이 개선되었고 장기적 관점에서 지속적인 품질유지 및 운영비용 절감에 매우 효과적임을 확인하였다.

Currently, the CCDs are widely used in astronomical observations either in direct imaging use or spectroscopic mode. However according to the recent technical advances, new large format CCDs are rapidly developed which have better performances with higher quantum efficiency and sensitivity. In many cases, some microprocessors have been adopted to deal with necessary digital logic for a CCD imaging system. This could often lack the flexibility of a system for a user for to upgrade with new devices, especially if it is a commercial product. A new design concept has been explored which could provide the opportunity to deal with any format of devices from any manufactures effectively for as tronomical purposes. Recently available PLD (Programmable Logic Devices)technology makes it possible to develop such digital circuit design, which can be integrated into a single component, instead of using micrprocessors. The design concept could dramatically increase the efficiency and flexibility of a CCD imaging system, particularly when new or large format devices are available and to upgrade the performance of a system. Some variable system control parameters can be selected by a user with a wider range of choice. The software can support such functional requirements very conveniently. This approach can be applied not only to astronomical purpose, but also to some related fields, such as remote sensing and industrial applications.

Most of the sewage treatment plants in Korea are being operated by using the conventional activated sludge process. Recently, as the water criteria have been strict with regard to such main culprits of eutrophication, the existing sewage treatment plants are obliged to upgrade their treatment technology to meet the criteria. Under such circumstances, this study was aimed at analyzing the conditions of an existing sewage treatment plants in Korea, and thereupon, test its treatment performance for the actual sewage water by operating a pilot plant. When the pilot plant was operated with the NPR process at the capacity of $30m^3/day$, the average contents of BOD, $COD_{Mn}$, SS, T-N and T-P in the effluents were 7.0 mg/L, 9.7 mg/L, 5.1 mg/L, 8.0 mg/L and 0.23 mg/L, respectively, which were very stable in general. Accordingly, if the NPR process used for this pilot plant to upgrade the treatment technology for the sewage treatment plat could be adopted, the effluent water quality criteria effective beginning from 2008 would be met.

In this paper, we propose a high performance database cluster system called HyperDB to process OLAP queries efficiently. HyperDB is a virtual database system running on top of internet-connected PCs; the PCs are used for their own purpose at ordinary times, but they are able to participate in the database cluster system at non-office hours. We propose fully logical replication technique and optimal parallel intra-query routing technique for extensibility and performance. Experiment for TPC-R benchmark shows significant performance upgrade compared with conventional approaches.
