  • The rapid diffusion of information and telecommunication (IT) technologies during the recent decennia produced fundamental changes in the economic activity at a global level, resulting in what became coined as the "new economy". However, empirical evidence on the contribution of IT equipment to growth and productivity is at best mixed, with the more or less consistent results on the positive link between the two relating to the United States in the 1990-s. Although the empirical literature on the link between IT investment and economic performance employs a wide variety of methodologies, the overwhelming majority of the studies appears to be employing the assumption of linearity of the IT-performance relationship and predominantly explores the direct nature thereof. In this study we relax both these assumptions and find that the indirect, or aggregate productive efficiency, effects of IT investment are as important as are the direct ones The estimated non-linear nature of the indirect relationship between IT investment intensity and productive efficiency accommodates the concepts of critical mass and complementary (infrastructure) capital offered in the literature. Our key finding is that the world economy′s average level of IT investment intensity remained below the estimated critical mass. Since in this study we developed a methodology that allows one to explicitly measure the critical mass of IT investment intensity, its individual estimation at a country or industrialsector level may help evaluate the extent to which IT investment activity has to be encouraged or discouraged.

  • This study investigates the effect of conflict resolution methods on the IS outsourcing performance. A survey of 207 IS oursourcing relationship of U.S. firms indicates that(1) constructive/proactive methods, such as joint problem solving, is positively related to the success of IS outsourcing relationships, and that (2) destructive/passive methods, such as persuasion, smoothing/avoiding, domination, and use of harsh words are negatively related to the success of IS outsourcing relationships. The findings suggest that the manner in which conflict is resolved can be productive or destructive for the IS outsourcing performance.

  • 본 연구는 한국 토종닭을 대상으로 부리 다듬기 여부와 교배조합이 생산능력 및 스트레스 반응 정도에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보고자 한 것이다. 시험은 6개의 토종닭 교배조합 248수를 대상으로 부리 다듬기를 실시한 그룹과 하지 않은 그룹으로 나누고, 이들의 생존율, 체중, 산란율, 난질, 깃털 손상도, HSP-70 유전자 발현량, H/L ratio 및 세포 내 DNA 손상률을 조사하여 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 부리 다듬기를 한 그룹이 하지 않은 그룹보다 생존율 및 산란지수는 유의하게 높았고, 깃털 손상도 및 DNA 손상률은 유의하게 낮았다(P<0.05). 반면 육성기 이후 체중, 일계산란율, 난질, HSP-70 유전자 발현율 및 H/L ratio는 부리 다듬기 여부에 따른 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 교배조합 간에는 생존율, 체중, 깃털 손상도, 난질 및 DNA 손상률에 유의한 차이를 보이고(P<0.05), 산란율, HSP-70 유전자 발현율 및 H/L ratio의 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 생존율, 깃털 손상도 및 DNA 손상률은 부리 다듬기와 교배조합 간의 상호작용이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 분석 결과로부터 토종닭의 부리 다듬기가 생산능력에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고, 스트레스 반응 정도에 있어서 육성기 이후부터는 부리 다듬기가 스트레스 요인으로 작용하지 않거나, 오히려 스트레스감소 요인으로 작용하는 것으로 판단된다. 또한 토종닭 교배조합 간에 생산능력 및 스트레스 반응 정도의 차이는 있으나 조합별 부리 다듬기가 이들에 미치는 영향은 거의 비슷한 것으로 보인다.

  • Objective: Free-range systems have been increasingly available to the consumer due to increased demand for more sustainable meat-products. In the current study, the effect of free-range (FR) and cage system (CS) was explored on growth performance, meat quality and oxidation products in Italian White breed rabbits during the growing-fattening phase (5 to 13 weeks of age). Methods: Forty rabbits were randomly allotted to two treatment groups according to the rearing system, and each treatment group was replicated five times with four subjects in each replicate (20 rabbits per treatment-group). All rabbits fed the same diet as pelleted, and under FR system, no additional feeds were available to animals. Results: Rearing system had significant effect on rabbit growth performance, where CS group resulted in higher final body weight (p<0.045) and gain (p<0.029) and better feed efficiency (p<0.025) compared to FR rabbits. Most carcass traits were not affected by rearing system; however, a reduction of abdominal fat content (p<0.015) and meat lipids (p<0.034) was observed in FR rabbits. Rearing system had no effects on meat fatty acid profile, whereas meat from FR rabbits resulted less susceptible to lipid and protein oxidation compared to caged animals. Conclusion: In overall, FR system could be suggested as a substitute for conventional caged system because of FR system preserved rabbit meat from oxidation.

  • The purpose of this experiment was to determine the influence of providing laying hens with extra feed on egg production and egg quality parameters. A total of 480 laying hens (38-weeks old), were divided into five treatment groups (eight replicate cages/treatment and 12 layer/replicate) according to their starting body weight (1.98 ± 0.05 kg) in this four-week feeding trial. Five different feed allowances of the same diet (105, 110, 115, 120, and 125 g·day-1·bird-1) were assigned to layers. Daily inspections of remaining feed (around 0.1g) and layer mortality (0%) showed no harmful impact of supplying extra feed to layers. Providing 120 and 125 g of feed per day to layers resulted in the highest final body weight, large-egg ratio, and improved yolk color among all treatment groups. Layers receiving 125 g of feed daily had the highest egg weight, but the highest egg production ratio was observed in layers receiving 110 g of feed/day. The additional supply of feed did not have a negative impact on the productive performance or egg quality of the layers. The provision of 125 g feed per day led to an improvement of large-egg ratio, egg weight, and yolk color, but likely led to obesity of the layers, which manifested as an increase in body weight and a decline in the egg production ratio. We concluded that 110 grams of feed was the proper quantity after taking into consideration the significance of the health of the laying hen to the overall production performance.

  • Objective: The current experiment was performed to investigate the influence of different dietary levels of Moringa oleifera leaf meal (MOLM) on productive performance, nutrient digestibility, blood parameters, immune response, caecal microbiota, and carcass characteristics of Muscovy ducks (Cairina moschata) during 7 to 63 d of age. Methods: A total of 240 unsexed 7-d-old ducklings were distributed into five (treatment) groups; each one contained six replicates with eight ducklings each. Birds of the first group were fed basal diet without MOLM and served as control, while the other four groups were fed basal diet with 0.25%, 0.50%, 1.0%, and 2.0% MOLM inclusion level, respectively. Results: The obtained results revealed that including MOLM in the diets significantly improved body weight, body weight gain, feed conversion ratio and economic efficiency compared with the control group. Among the different MOLM inclusion treatments, increasing MOLM inclusion level decreased (p<0.05) such previous parameters. Decreasing MOLM inclusion levels in duckling diets increased (p>0.05) the digestibility of organic matter, crude protein, ether extract, and nitrogen free extract, however all MOLM treatments were significantly higher than the control group. Results also revealed that feeding ducks lower MOLM inclusion levels (0.25% or 0.50%) improved blood parameters (p<0.05) compared with the higher inclusion levels (1.0% or 2.0% MOLM) and the control group. Ducks fed different MOLM levels had significantly higher phagocyte index and activity, immunoglobulin G (IgG), IgM, total antioxidant capacity, glutathione peroxidase activity, and superoxide dismutase activity compared with control group. Conclusion: Despite the beneficial effects of all MOLM treatments on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, physiological status, and immune response of duckling, the increasing MOLM inclusion level in the diet had deleterious effects on such studied traits, consequently 0.25% was the best MOLM inclusion level in duckling diets.

  • 일반적으로 병아리의 성감별은 생식돌기 감별법이나 반성 유전 형질을 이용한 자가 성별법으로 이루어지고 있다. 이들 중 우모 발생 속도에 관여하는 만우성 유전자를 이용한 깃털 성감별법이 산업적으로 가장 널리 이용되고 있는데, 이는 발생 시 깃털의 형태적 차이로 쉽게 판별이 가능하기 때문이다. 그러나 깃털 자가 성별종의 계통 조성을 위하여 반드시 모계가 만우성이어야 하므로 깃털의 조만성이 생산 능력에 미치는 영향을 구명할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 깃털 자가 성감별 계통으로 조성 중인 한국 재래닭 적갈색종 만우성 개체들과 조우성 개체들을 대상으로 이들 간의 생산능력의 차이를 비교 분석하였다. 조우성과 만우성 개체들의 번식 능력 분석 결과, 수정율과 부화율 모두에서 이들 간에 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났고, 발생 후 60주령까지 생존율에서도 두 집단 간에 차이가 없었다. 또한 성장 능력의 비교 분석에서 발생 시부터 50주령까지 모든 주령에서 집단 간 평균 체중의 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 깃털의 조만성이 산란능력에 미치는 영향으로 초산 일령의 경우 조우성 개체들의 시산 일령이 만우성 개체들에 비해 평균 3일 정도 빨랐으나, 일계 산란율에 있어서는 조우성 개체와 만우성 개체 간에 차이가 없었다. 깃털의 조만성이 난질에 미치는 영향에 대해서도 난각색을 비롯한 난중, 난백 높이, 하우유니트, 난황색, 난각 두께, 난각 무게 및 난각 밀도 등 모든 난질 지표의 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 한국 재래닭에 있어 깃털 조만성에 따른 생산 능력의 차이는 없는 것으로 사료되어, 이를 이용한 자가 성감별 계통 조성 시 깃털 조만성에 따른 생산능력의 영향은 고려하지 않아도 되는 것으로 판단된다.

  • Manufacturing companies' cost competitiveness with respect to equipment management can be achieved by satisfying additional market demands by their own capacity without purchasing additional equipments. In essence, it can be accomplished by making continuous investigation into bottlenecks and improvement on them. Therefore, equipment performance measure systems should be designed so that they can support manufacturing companies' such endeavors. With the purpose of establishing an effective equipment performance measurement system for detecting and improving bottlenecks, this study (1) suggests some desirable features that such a system should have, (2) evaluates conventional equipment performance measurement systems in terms of their usefulness for the detection and improvement of bottlenecks, and (3) proposes an improved system. We also perform a simulation experiment to demonstrate the limitations of the conventional systems and show how the proposed system can resolve the problems.

  • This paper is to review and organize performance strategies, issues, and measures for the efficient operation of order picking function. Order picking is the process of retrieving items from storage to meet a specific customer order, which is known to be the most labor-intensive and costly function among all the warehouse functions. This function is also important in that it has a critical impact on downstream customer service. For understanding the background of order picking and related performance issues, we will briefly introduce warehousing functions. Then we will introduce material handling within a warehouse and order picking strategies. Lastly, we will discuss about performance issues and measures in the domain of order picking operations. Productive and quality measures will be reviewed in more detail.
