Improving the quality of teaching staff in universities is an important goal of most universities. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the factors affecting the quality improvement of lecturers at universities. There are many factors affecting the improvement of this quality of human resources. This article uses the survey method to assess the factors affecting the improvement of the quality of lecturers in education and training institutions of the Ministry of Transport of Vietnam. Currently, the Ministry of Transport of Vietnam has 4 educational institutions. The research team has assessed the impact factors at these 4 facilities. The research team conducted a survey for faculty members of the Ministry of Transport. The result was 446 votes. The authors have performed factor evaluation by multivariate regression model. The influencing factors include Professional competence, the virtue of teaching staff, scientific research capacity, participating in building a democratic educational environment, Professional support policy, Instructor's income, and Information technology support. Research results show that most of the factors have a positive impact on improving the quality of lecturers. Based on the survey results, the authors also make policy suggestions to further improve the quality of teaching staff of the schools in the coming time.

Ever-growing recreation, tourism and ecotourism worldwide have become a significant factor of resource degradation in many protected areas. Managers of these areas are increasingly challenged to implement policies, strategies and actions that would protect the resource base while providing quality visitor experience. One major issue in managing protected area visitations is that of carrying capacity, or the question of "how much use is too much\ulcorner". Scientific studies of visitor impacts, often known as recreation ecology, has generated a knowledge base that provides valuable input to the visitor carrying capacity management process adopted by the U.S. National Park Service. This paper aims at (a) providing an overview of recreation ecology research and its application in managing visitor carrying capacity, and (b) examining the relevance of recreation ecology to East Asian protected areas with special reference to the visitor capacity issue.ity issue.

Cyberinfrastructure is a research infrastructure that provides an environment in which research communities can get access to distributed resources and collaborate at unprecedented levels of computation, storage, and network capacity. The Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) is a global collaborative project of computing or data centers that enables access to scientific data generated by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments at CERN. This case study analyzes the WLCG as a model of cyberinfrastructure in research collaboration. WLCG provides a useful case of how cyberinfrastructure can work in providing an infrastructure for collaborative researches under data-intensive paradigm. Cyberinfrastructure plays the critical role of facilitating collaboration of diverse and widely separated communities of researchers. Data-intensive science requires new strategies for research support and significant development of cyberinfrastructure. The sustainability of WLCG depends on the resources of partner organizations and virtual organizations at international levels, essential for research collaboration.

본 연구는 울산광역시를 대상으로 화학사고에 대비한 대피시설 위치의 적정성을 분석하여 피해 최소화를 위한 방안을 연구하였다. 연구방법은 화학물질 배출 및 이용량 자료와 인구센서스 집계구 자료, 대피시설 위치정보 등을 활용하여 화학사고 위험성 평가와 대피시설의 접근성을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 대피시설 위치의 적정성을 도출하였다. 화학사고 위험성은 석유화학공장과 인구가 밀집된 석유화학공단지역 인근 5km 이내에서 높았다. 대피시설은 대부분 화학사고 위험지역에 분포하고 있으나, 석유화학공장 인근지역에서 대피시설의 접근성이 취약한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 우선적으로 화학사고 예방을 위해 노후화된 공장시설의 안전점검도 필요하지만, 대피시설의 수용인원, 규모 등을 고려하여 보다 효과적인 대피방안을 마련해야 될 것이다.

The large quantity of green cull bananas has the potential of being used industrially and, thereby, to improve banana economics and eliminate the large environmental problem presented by banana waste. Wastewaters from textile, cosmetics, printing, dying, food colouring, and paper-making industries are polluted by dyes. The adsorption of basic dye by waste banana pith was investigated by varying dye concentrations, adsorbent dose, particle size and agitation rate. The adsorption capacity was found to be maximum value of removal by using 0.1 g of sorbent with particle size 1mm at mixing speed 200 rpm for initial concentration 25 mg/l to reach value of approximate 89%. The Langmuir, Temkin and Freundlich adsorption models were used for mathematical description of the adsorption equilibrium and it was found that experimental data fitted very well to these models except Langmuir model. Adsorption of dye was applied on (pseudo-first and pseudo-second-order kinetics), and the experimental data was more fitted to pseudo second order. The results of this study showed that banana pith could be employed as effective and low-cost materials for the removal of dyes from aqueous solutions.

지금까지 연안 양식장의 지속적인 생산 및 체계적인 관리를 위해 어장환경용량 산정 및 활용에 관하여 많은 연구가 선행되어 왔다. 그러나, 생태학적 부하를 고려한 지속적 적정 생산을 위해서는 4가지 계층구조(물리적 수용능력, 생산 수용능력, 생태학적 수용능력 및 사회적 수용능력)에 의한 어장환경용량 산정 개념을 활용할 수 있다. 생태학적 수용 능력 산정의 경우, 환경과 패류 양식의 상호작용에 관한 좀 더 전체적인 접근이 필요하여 아직까지 모델 개발은 초기 단계에 있으므로, 이에 대한 대안접근으로 패류양식장이 해양생태계의 가능을 어떻게 변화시킬 수 있는지 패류양식장의 생태적 효율을 평가할 수 있는 생태지표의 필요성이 대두되었다. 현재 거제한산만 굴양식장의 정화율 생태지표는 0.331, 여과압 생태지표는 0.203으로 계산되었으며, 이는 연안 생태계에 부하를 주지 않는 생태학적 수용 능력인 0.05를 초과하고 있음을 나타내었다. 본 연구에서는 생태학적 수용 능력의 개념에 근거한 생태지표를 거제한산만에 적용하여, 현재의 굴 양식장의 개발 수준이 어느 정도인지를 평가하여 지속적인 생산과 효과적인 양식어장 관리 지침으로 활용하는 방안을 마련하고자 하였다.

The restoration of foundations supporting the immense load of the stone pagoda at Mireuksa Temple Site prioritizes securing its structural stability. But so far, rammed earth construction is still not easy to determine the structural stability. This paper aims to emphasize that a scientific experimental study was conducted on a rammed earth construction, to identify its methodology and obtain objective data about structural stability of the foundation work. An experimental study fabricated specimens from the soil that had been removed during the excavation survey, determined the allowable bearing capacity through plate load tests, and compared the results with the predicted stress after reassembly of the stone pagoda to estimate the structural stability. Then, the repair method was selected based on the experimental study result. The evaluation method of the restoration of foundations consisted of an examination of the allowable bearing capacity and settlement. The allowable bearing of the reinforced foundation was more than twice the contact pressure under the stacked stones of the pagoda. The possibility of settlement of the rammed earth foundation soil layer during the pagoda assembly is expected to be very low because the settlement amount of the reformed soil layer is less than half of the settlement of the stabilized existing soil layer.

The general purpose of this paper is to identify opportunities for and to measure existing collaboration on research and development between institutions from the countries of Asia and Latin America in FEALAC's framework, in the fields of biotechnology and nanotechnology and their convergence. The methodological approach includes scientific and technological surveillance and research seeking to identify both the R&D and innovation capacities of the countries as well as the degree of international cooperation between countries of the two regions; case studies and a study of the governance framework of international collaboration in R&D about issues considered global challenges. The study has three main findings. First, nanotechnology, biotechnology and their convergence contribute to solving the problem of contamination by heavy metals affecting most of the countries that are part of FEALAC and to address problems arising from the accelerated rate of energy consumption, which also contributes to environmental damage. In this scenario, important business opportunities arise from the adaptation and development of bio-refinery technologies. Second, the scientific relationship between FEALAC countries, mainly between Asian and Latin American countries, is weak as can be seen in research for articles and patents. But there is plenty of room and potential for improvement. Third, current and upcoming joint R&D programs and projects should be linked both to existing governance structures and to new ones that serve as experiments of STI public policy regarding innovative management of intellectual property and capacity building. Practical implications are included in lessons learned and a set of recommendations involving a couple of proposals. One proposal calls for research and innovation in promising fields for international cooperation. Another proposal creates mechanisms in the governance framework for sharing knowledge, capacity building, and funding.
