  • Within this contribution, an overview of recent research performed in the radiochemistry division at KIT-INE is given. Examples are taken from R&D activities performed within the HGF NUSAFE programme, but also from studies performed within collaborations on the national and international level. It finally may contribute to increased interaction and exchange of KIT-INE with Korean research groups interested in nuclear waste disposal topics.

  • The purpose of this study is to compare the characteristics of research collaborations in the field of LIS. While there are several studies under the unit of analysis of country, there are only a few studies under the unit of analysis of institution in LIS field. For this analysis, we selected eight journals in the KCI (Korea Citation Index) web site, which correspond to the field of LIS through subject classification. The collaborative indices, Collaborative Coefficient, Co-Authorship Index, Local Collaborative Index (LCI), Domestic Collaborative Index (DCI) allowed us to comparatively analyze institutional collaboration patterns in LIS field. In the case of Chung-Ang University, Yonsei University, and Ewha Womans University, collaborative research among professors, graduate students, and professors reflected the fact that collaborations among universities are often performed with professors. In the case of KISTI, which showed a very high index value, the characteristics of project-based research are reflected in the research collaboration pattern.

  • Many studies have demonstrated that articles from international collaborations are more cited than articles from domestic collaborations. However, difference between the citation impact of international and domestic co-authored papers is supposed to be widened due to the collaboration strategy adopted by individual institute. In short, each institute will show the significantly different citation impact between international and domestic co-authored papers. In this paper, we applied the index of Incremental Ciation Impact(ICI) to identify the different value of citation impact between international and domestic co-authored papers for research institutes of KRCF, results of which will be understood under the strategy of international research collaboration.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this manuscript was to come up with ideas about supportive policies and multi-sectoral collaboration for Mental health Promotion. Methods: The authors reviewed about 40 various international & internal scientific articles including WHO's publications related with mental health programmes and mental health promotion. Besides, we reviewed inter-sectoral and multi-sectoral collaborations of mental health works for policy recommendations. Results: There are many problems in present mental health services; lack of budgets, existence of many vulnerable people, lack of mental health indexes, low accessibilities to mental health services, lack of supportive policies, and no existence of comprehensive control tower. Conclusions: It is important to strengthen public mental health services focused on health promotion. In addition, reinforcement of the infra-structures and establishment of a comprehensive control tower for mental health promotion should be done immediately. The control tower will have specific roles in structures of different government sectors and infrastructures for inter-sectoral collaboration.

  • As collaboration of research is increasing in social science, this study aims to investigate the changes in patterns of research collaboration in the field of library and information science, over the years from 2002 to 2020. The data used for this study were collected from four major journals in the field to analyze the frequency of co-authored research articles by journals and by institutions that all authors were associated with. Also, the institutions data were used to build a co-authorship network, which produced various indices including TBC (Triangle Betweenness Centrality) that showed which institutions were more central than others in the network. The result shows the number of co-authored articles were constantly increasing in all journals, and some institutions, mostly universities, showed the higher centrality scores than others and the range of collaboration were also expanded.

  • This abstract contains information of PC-Cluster systems that Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) have developed and researched since 1998. This paper introduce not only the reasons that why SAIT has been interested and focused in such system, but also where to SAIT has applied. There are many other applicable areas but this paper emphasis only in the fields of high performance computing and storage system. With the result of SAIT's PC-Cluster research, we hope we can create many new applicable areas with collaborations.

  • The KOMPSAT European Cooperation aims at enhancing existing and establishing new collaborations between KARI and various European institutions. The objective is to create mutual data and information exchange possibilities and to develop new data applications of available and future space based Earth Observation sensors. In this paper, the concept of a KOMPSAT regional application center, a joint development between KARI, ARCS and other European partners is presented. This includes the establishment of an additional KOMPSAT-2 downlink in Europe, and the developments of a state-of-the-art user service system for urban and environmental security monitoring.

  • The Web Services Choreography Description Language (WS-CDL) is an XML-based language that describes peer-to-peer collaborations of parties by defining, from a global viewpoint, their common and complementary observable behavior; where ordered message exchanges result in accomplishing a common business goal. In this paper, we survey and analysis the functionality of the WS-CDL, and propose new language, which enhance the WS-CDL for the conversation the message between entities

  • In this study, a brief overview on a WMO/WWRP program - The Observing System Research and Predictability Experiment (THORPEX) and discussions on perspectives and potential benefits of Asian countries are provided. THORPEX is aimed at accelerating improvements in the accuracy of 1 to 14-day high-impact weather forecasts with research objectives of: 1) predictability and dynamical processes; 2) observing systems; 3) data assimilation and observing strategies; and 4) societal and economic applications. Direct benefits of Asian countries from THORPEX include improvement of: 1) forecast skills in global models, which exerts positive impact on mesoscale forecasts; 2) typhoon forecasts through dropwindsonde observations; and 3) forecast skills for high-impact weather systems via increased observations in neighboring countries. Various indirect benefits for scientific researches are also discussed. Extensive adaptive observation studies are recommended for all high-impact weather systems coming into the Korean peninsula, and enhancement of observations in the highly sensitive regions for the forecast error growth is required to improve forecast skills in the peninsula, possibly through international collaborations with neighboring countries.

  • Toxicology is under challenge from several new trends in science and technology, namely computer, the Internet, genome projects, genomic technologies, and combinatorial chemistry. These new trends will drastically change research style of toxicology. In addition to conventional uni cellular tests and animal tests using rodents, computer simulation, DNA chips (microarrays), in vivo tests using simple model organisms such as nematodesor flies become important routine screening tests. How to arrange these tests in tiers will become a new problem. Endocrine disruptors hypothesis is a good example for this kind of futuristic approach. Computer, particularly the Internet, is also enabling toxicologists and regulatory experts to collaborate more closely. The IPCS (International Program for Chemical Safety) which is ajoint project of WHO, ILO and UNEP, is a well-known international collaborative research for chemical risk assessments. The GINC project of IPCS is an effort to utilize the Internet for such collaborations. Some efforts were also made to establish regional collaboration network in East Asia under this project.
