The comparison study between EPA method 3050 and the test method offered by Ministry of Environment in Korea was performed to investigate a matrix effect on extraction. In this study, 12 inorganic priority pollutants(Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Ni, Zn, As, Sb, Se, Hg, Be, Tl) were spiked to the sludges and estuary sediment samples. The extracts were analyzed by AAS, HG-AAS, and ICP/MS. Results were discussed in terms of recoveries, relative standard deviations, and the method detection limits. Mean recovery of the elements except As, Sb, and Se was 93% when the procedure of EPA method was applied. The Korean extraction method, however. showed a significant matrix effect to give very poor recoveries.

There have been large explosions at some chemical plants recently. Accidents in chemical plants have been caused mainly by servicing for maintenance. There is a need to find a key target for effective injury prevention in maintenance. In this paper, facilities were selected as a key target and the risk priority numbers of the facilities were calculated in order to prioritize preventative measures. The research method was based on the followings; the list of the facilities is found through injury analysis. Then, the risk of each facility was calculated by the frequency of accidents and the working day loss through injuries. In addition, the risk of the facilities was calculated again by the frequency and the severity based on knowledge and experience of experts. As a result, the facilities in chemical plant maintenance are ranked in order of high to low risk priority number; reactor, dryer, tank lorry, etc. In the future, special measures and attention should be directed according to the risk priority number during the maintenance of chemical plants.

This research reviews the education welfare priority support project and analyzes its policy from the welfare-state perspective. This study evaluates the policy contents, overall procedures, and the changes in the perspectives of the project in accordance with the political power changes in the government, and illuminates future directions. For this, the research infers desirable typology of the welfare state, and analogizes the budget, the target population, key issues and delivery systems of the education welfare priority support project. Education welfare priority support project still remains to follow a selective and hierarchical business format, despite the legally stated initiatives, growing budget, and the expansion of the operation which has been governed by the policy makers. Particularly, the state of this project, and examine whether or not it has been distorted by the governmental emphasis on the educational outcomes and performance should continuously be examined as a future direction of the research. Finally, the study suggests several recommendations for the desirable anchorage of the project within the framework of being a prospective welfare state.

The purpose of this study is to extend the research on the development of the performance indicators for the Education Welfare Priority Support Project and to secure the content validity for the application to the school site. The performance index of the Education Welfare Priority Support Project used in this study was originally consisted of 6 area, 33 sub-area, and 233 items. Two expert meetings were held for five doctoral professionals in the field of educational welfare. Delphi surveys were conducted for a group of 99 educational welfare workers who worked at the site for more than five years. The item selection criteria ($CVR{\geq}.29$, $CVI{\geq}.80$, convergence <.50, agreement ${\geq}.05$, stability ${\leq}.80$, $M{\geq}3.00$, SD <.80, reliability ${\geq}.6$) were applied. The 6 area, 23 sub-areas, and 93 items were verified and finally 90 items were selected from removing 3 items with low level of reliability. Providing suggestions and follow-up studies for the better use of the performance indicators for the Education Welfare Priority Support Project in the field.

The immune-stimulating activities of Bordetella bronchiseptica antigens containing dermonecrotoxin (BBD) loaded in chitosan microspheres (CMs) have already been reported in vitro and in vivo with a mouse alveolar macrophage cell line (RAW264.7) and mice. Therefore, this study attempted to demonstrate the successful induction of mucosal immune responses after the intranasal administration of BBD loaded in CMs (BBD-CMs) in colostrum-deprived pigs. The BBD was introduced to the CMs using an ionic gelation process involving tripolyphosphate (TPP). Colostrum-deprived pigs were then directly immunized through intranasal administration of the BBD-CMs. A challenge with a field isolate of B. bronchiseptica was performed ten days following the final immunization. The BBD-specific IgG and IgA titers, evident in the nasal wash and serum from the vaccinated pigs, increased with time (p<0.05). Following the challenge, the clinical signs of infection were about 6-fold lower in the vaccinated pigs compared with the nonvaccinated pigs. The grades for gross morphological changes in the turbinate bones from the vaccinated pigs were also significantly lower than the grades recorded for the nonvaccinated pigs (p<0.001). Therefore, the mucosal and systemic immune responses induced in the current study would seem to indicate that the intranasal administration of BBD-CMs may be an effective vaccine against atrophic rhinitis in pigs.

This paper attempts to improve the typical DEA model that is often used as a performance evaluation method for service firms. The after-sales service system in a Korean electronic company is chosen as a sample case. The performance evaluation method currently practiced in the firm was reviewed and some critical issues of the current method were discussed. DEA model would be considered a solution for solving those Issues. However, typical DEA models has various drawbacks in determining the weights over evaluation criteria. Proposed is the priority-constrained DEA model that accommodates the strategic Importance of each evaluation criterion. The results of the proposed model are compared with those of typical DEA models. It is shown that the priority-constrained DEA model is superior to the others in terms of evaluation quality.

We consider a priority-based multiclass queue with probabilistic feed-back. There are J service stations. Each customer belongs to one of the several priority classes, and the customers of each class arrive at each station in a Poisson process. A single server serves queued customers on a priority basis with a nonpreemptive scheduling discipline. The customers who complete their services feed back to the system instantaneously and join one of the queues of the stations or depart from the system according to a given probability. In this paper, we propose a new method to simplify the analysis of these queueing systems. By the analysis of busy periods and regenerative processes, we clarify the underlying system structure, and systematically obtain the mean for the sojourn time, i.e., the time from the arrival to the departure from the system, of a customer at every station. The mean for the number of customers queued in each station at an arbitrary time is also obtained simultaneously.

Systemic management is required at each phase of the C4I system life cycle to achieve information advantage in the battlefield through stable operation of the C4I system under the NCOE. In particular, the maintenance phase is the longest period of the C4I system life cycle, and it is easy to utilize and analyze data such as faults that occur during system operation. However, according to the previous research, the maintenance is evaluated as a phase in which the definition and management of comprehensive indicators are insufficient compared to other phase. In this paper, we propose the method of C4I Maintenance Priority decision using Maintenance metric. As a result of modifying the Naval Tactical C4I System's preventive maintenance cycle according to the priority, the total number of faults is reduced and the maintenance efficiency is improved.

Since the research of advanced terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting system is still in progress, and in our previous paper, in which we introduced how to combine one conventional transmitted symbol with two additional bits to form a new symbol transmission, the bit error performance of LP bits is not realizable, because even we implemented the turbo code to protect the LP bits transmission, to obtain a certain good bit error probability, the value of $E_b/N_0$ cost highly. In this paper, we modified the composition of low-priority symbol and high-priority symbol, and through the system presented in previous paper we get a better simulation result of the LP symbol transmission.
