  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the communication structures that science gifted students used in small group activities, and to examine the relationship between communication styles and their achievement level. Eight small groups,5 members in each, participated in small group activities, in which they discussed how to calculate the average density of the earth. The communication structures and the achievement level presented in the group activities were analyzed using Pajek, Ucinet 6.0. As a result, we classified the communication styles of science gifted students into monopolistic type and co-ownership type according to the degree of dispersion of the interaction. We also classified it into $D_H{\cdot}N_H$ type, $D_H{\cdot}N_L$ type, $D_L{\cdot}N_H$ type, and $D_L{\cdot}N_L$ type based on the density and network centralization of interaction. The achievement levels of gifted students in their group work were affected by the density of interaction and the network centralization in small group activities, not by the dispersion of interaction among the members of the groups. Therefore, we recommend that teachers make the communication relevant to solving problem when they utilize a small group activity in science teaching.

  • Internet traffic is rapidly increasing due to the spread of personal smart devices. It causes serious burden on base stations and access points which are installed in buildings, buses, trains, and ships. We consider a communication scenario aboard a cruise ship and propose efficient contents distribution schemes to alleviate the burden of access points with multi-device-to-multi-device(MD2MD) communication. The proposed transmission method is based on the hybrid STBC-SM scheme. We compare the error performance of MD2MD communication system on the cruise ship using space-time block coding (STBC) scheme, spatial multiplexing (SM) scheme. The proposed MD2MD communication system is expected to adopt in the ship-area-network (SAN) with efficient contents distribution and reliable communication.

  • Through investigating communication contents, extent of conflict, and its causes between medical residents and nurses/technicians, this study will provide the effective communication skills to ease interpersonal conflicts and maintain healthy partner relationships. This is a descriptive study to find out the communication contents, extent of conflicts and its causes between medical residents and nurses/technicians. Data were collected from April $1^{st}$, 2004 to April $8^{th}$, 2004 from 118 medical residents, 288 nurses, 85 radiology technicians and 107 laboratory technicians in 4 university hospitals in Seoul capital region. Data analysis was done with SPSS version 11.0 using descriptive statistics, ANOVA and chi-test. Interpersonal conflict towards medical residents were rated higher by nurses than technicians (Nurses > Technologists = Medical residents). Causes of conflict showed regional differences. In communication contents, all regions showed "Thank you" and "Well done" as most pleasant comments. Medical residents proved other medical residents' negative comments as most unpleasant and nurses and technicians proved residents' commanding phrases, disrespectful speech, and urging comments to be most unpleasant. Communication between the center members of the medical organization is very important in treating patients and understanding each other. For smooth conflict resolutions and maintaining healthy partner relationships, continued education and support for appropriate communication and interpersonal relationship skills is needed.

  • Communication is very important in warfare. Dispatch riders were used in ancient warfare, but communication system is used in modern warfare, as the advancement of communication equipments. In order to weaken enemy military strength, communication jamming signal disrupts enemy communication systems. Tone jamming is one of the common communication jamming techniques. Tone jamming is that several tones are placed in the spectrum for neutralizing the enemy's radio communication receivers. In this paper, we develop multitone jamming signal controlled tone number up to 10 tones and tone interval between tones using DDS(Direct Digital Synthesizer) core and FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Arry) of Xilinx Inc. and show the jamming signal output.

  • This study examines the effects of paternal parenting behaviors, child-rearing involvement, and father-child communication perceived by children on their leadership. A total of 197 children selected from three elementary schools and their fathers participated in this study. Data were collected using a parenting behavior index, a child-rearing involvement inventory, a father-child communication inventory, and a children's leadership index and statistically analyzed using the t-test, a one-way ANOVA ($Scheff{\acute{e}}$ test), and a multiple regression analysis. The results show significant differences in children's leadership according to the father's education level, family income, the father's warmth/acceptance, the father's family activity involvement, and open/problematic communication between the father and the child. The child's age, the father's education level, family income, the father's warmth/acceptance, open communication, and problematic communication were significant predictors of the child's leadership. These results suggest that a child's leadership may be strengthened if the father is warmer and more accepting and has open communication with the child.
