Radiation monitoring is one of the most important process in all places where radioactive material is used including hospital. In this preliminary study, we made GAS electron multiplier (GEM) detector and acquired relative efficiencies in order to see if GEM detector can be useful in radiation monitoring system. The relative efficiency was acquired by using the ratio of GEM detector efficiency to CdTe detector efficiency. The relative efficiency of 72% and 4% was acquired for beta-ray and gamma-ray respectively.

Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) model is a linear programing based technique for measuring the relative performance of organizational units where the presence of multiple inputs and outputs makes comparison difficult. DEA model allows each unit to adopt a set of weight that shows it in the most favorable light in comparison to the other units. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of the libraries of national university in terms of relative efficiency, measured by the method of DEA. Twenty six libraries of national universities in Korea were used to analyze. The number of employees, size of library, budget, and number of books were used for input data, and the number of visitors, number of loan books, and number of books for lending and borrowing were used for output data. We found out that number of libraries with 100% relative efficiency among 26 libraries from 2005 to 2007 were only 9, 9 and 10, respectively. Moreover most of the libraries need to increase outputs and decrease inputs in order to improve efficiency.

The aim of this study is to compare relative efficiency Korean and Japanese construction firms over the period of 2000-2013, and to analysis relative efficiency using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). This study employs DEA in analyzing of 7 Korean construction firms and 8 Japanese construction firms using 2 input and 1 output variables. The efficiency results of this study is temporarily lowered due to IT Bubble Decay and Global Financial Crisis. The efficiency of Korean construction firms from 2000-2001 is lower Japanese construction firms, but the efficiency of Korean construction firms from 2002-2013 is higher Japanese construction firms. These results mean that the management of Korean construction firms were operating more efficiently than Japanese construction firms.

A two stage shrinkage testimator for the mean of an exponential distribution is considered with the assumption that an initial estimate of the mean is available. Mean squared error(MSE) of testimator and its relative efficiency (to usual single sample mean) are briefly reviewed. It is shown that relative efficiency depends only on the ratio of true mean value and its initial estimate.

This study was conducted to estimate the design flood by the determination of best fitting order for LH-moments of the annual maximum series at fifteen watersheds. Using the LH-moment ratios and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the optimal regional probability distribution was identified to be the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) in the first report of this project. Parameters of GEV distribution and flood flows of return period n years were derived by the methods of L, L1, L2, L3 and L4-moments. Frequency analysis of flood flow data generated by Monte Carlo simulation was performed by the methods of L, L1, L2, L3 and L4-moments using GEV distribution. Relative Root Mean Square Error. (RRMSE), Relative Bias (RBIAS) and Relative Efficiency (RE.) using methods of L, Ll , L2, L3 and L4-moments for GEV distribution were computed and compared with those resulting from Monte Carlo simulation. At almost all of the watersheds, the more the order of LH-moments and the return periods increased, the more RE became, while the less RRMSE and RBIAS became. The Absolute Relative Reduction (ARR) for the design flood was computed. The more the order of LH-moments increased, the less ARR of all applied watershed became It was confirmed that confidence efficiency of estimated design flood was increased as the order of LH-moments increased. Consequently, design floods for the appled watersheds were derived by the methods of L3 and L4-moments among LH-moments in view of high confidence efficiency.

The enormous budget of government and manpower are invested to the government funded institutes every year. The R&D investment focused on input has to be turned toward the investment based on the effectiveness of R&D activities. Measuring the efficiency of research activities is required in order to evaluate the effectiveness of R&D investment in these institutes. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the relative efficiency of research activities performed in 19 government funded research institutes. CCR/BCC model and DEA/AR model were applied to get the relative efficiency of 19 institutes. Assurance regions for the weight of output attributes were obtained by using the underlined concept of the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). We used input and output data items describing research activity of 19 government funded research institutes. The results of this study are expected to become a basis of the R&D investment decision of the government.

Air Traffic Control Tower is one of the most important units in Airport operation. It provides services related to safe and efficient traffic flows that control aircraft on the ground maneuvering area and terminal airspace. Also It is responsible for managing of ground operators. The major objective of this study is to evaluates relative efficiency of ATC towers in Domestic airports using data envelopment analysis so that it helps the ATC authority to improve the tower efficiency, to decide the level of benchmarking target and to establish the best alternative. The results of this study are the following; First, as a result of analysis for the potential improvement, it has analysed that the common problems of each ATC tower are to increase its number of flight and to reduce its number of runway followed by airside area, the number of air traffic controller and the number of stand. Second, it has shown that the each tower in RKPC(8), RKPT(5), RKPK(l) and RKSS(l) are used as the reference set. Especially, the tower in RKPC analyzed as a relatively efficient unit is the most main target for the towers in RKTU, RKTH, RKPS and RKTY to do bench marking and to set up the strategy for improving relative efficiency of the tower. Third, tower is actually not able to control the input and output data in this study except the number of controller, so that ATC authority is recommended to improve inefficiency of the towers through handling the number of controller.

The flexible patterned cover film was made by a simple solution coating process using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) solution with glass beads. The effect of patterned cover film on the efficiency of solar cell has been investigated. It was found that the relative solar cell efficiency increased up to 3.4% with the incident light angle between $0-90^{\circ}$ by the sphere shape of glass bead coated on the film surface. This was understood that the loss of transmittance and scattering due to the light directional dependency on solar cell were minimized because the light entered glass beads normal to its surface regardless of incident light angle. The maximum relative solar cell efficiency was achieved when glass bead shape on the film is hemisphere and the relative efficiency increased with increasing the amount of glass bead on the film surface. However, too much glass beads on the film surface resulted in the lower relative solar cell efficiency due to the lowering of transmittance as well as the occurring of light interference.

The chi-squared type statistic generated from the empirical process can be used for testing the goodness of fit hypothesis on iid random sample. Lee (1995) showed that under some conditions, the chi-squared type statistic is asymptotically maximin in the sense of Strasser (1985). Since the chi-squared type statistic depends on the choice of *points in the unit interval, it is worth investigating the points yielding more efficient tests. Motivated by this viewpoint, we are led to study the asymptotic relative efficiency of chi-squared type tests in the same setting of Lee (1995). Some examples are given for illustration.
