The purpose of this study is to investigate antecedents and consequences of perceived justice of performance appraisals, which is classified as distributive and procedural justice, in hospital organization. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, for distributive justice of performance appraisals, the influential factors are the pertinence of performance appraisal method, the opportunity of self-reporting, the availability of performance appraisal, and the feedback of performance appraisal. For the procedural justice of performance appraisals, they are the leadership style of performance appraisers, the ratee-rater exchange relationship, the pertinence of performance appraisal method, the opportunity of self-reporting, and the feedback of performance appraisal. Second, the perceived justice weakly affects outcome variables, organizational commitment and job satisfaction. By these results, the performance appraisal system needs to be changed in order to enhance distributive justice through the improvement of suitable methods of the performance appraisal, the opportunity of self-reporting, the availability of performance appraisal, and the feedback of performance appraisals. If it is difficult to increase the level of distributive justice due to the environmental restrictions in hospitals, the way to enhance the procedural justice more than the distributive one should be considered.

Networking together hundreds or thousands of cheap sensor nodes allows users to accurately monitor a remote environment by intelligently combining the data from the individual nodes. As sensor nodes are typically battery operated, it is important to efficiently use the limited energy of the nodes to extend the lifetime of the wireless sensor network (WSN). One of the fundamental issues in WSNs is the coverage problem. In this paper, the border coverage problem in WSNs is rigorously analyzed. Most existing results related to the coverage problem in wireless sensor networks focused on planar networks; however, three dimensional (3D) modeling of the sensor network would reflect more accurately real-life situations. Unlike previous works in this area, we provide distributed algorithms that allow the selection and activation of an optimal border cover for both 2D and 3D regions of interest. We also provide self-healing algorithms as an optimization to our border coverage algorithms which allow the sensor network to adaptively reconfigure and repair itself in order to improve its own performance. Border coverage is crucial for optimizing sensor placement for intrusion detection and a number of other practical applications.

A self-organizing multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (multi-UAVs) deployment based on virtual forces has a difficulty in ensuring the quality-of-experience (QoE) of users because of the difference between the assumed center for users in a hotspot and an actual center for users in the hotspot. This discrepancy is aggravated in a non-uniform and mobile user distribution. To address this problem, we propose a new density based virtual force (D-VF) multi-UAVs deployment algorithm which employs a mean opinion score (MOS) as a metric of QoE. Because MOS is based on signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), a sum of users' MOS is a good metric not only to secure a wide service area but to enhance the link quality between multi-UAVs and users. The proposed algorithm improves users' QoE by combining virtual forces with a random search force for the exploration of finding multi-UAVs' positions which maximize the sum of users' MOS. In simulation results, the proposed deployment algorithm shows the convergence of the multi-UAVs into the position of maximizing MOS. Therefore, the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional virtual force-based deployment scheme in terms of QoE for non-uniform user distribution scenarios.

사회복지사들의 소진 가능성을 극복하기 위한 대안으로 직장 내 영성에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이 연구는 노인복지관에서 일하는 사회복지사들에게 영성교육 프로그램을 제공하고 이후 어떤 변화가 있었는지 알아보았다. 노인복지관 3곳의 사회복지사 25명에게 12주에서 14주간 임상사목교육(Clinical Pastoral Education: CPE)이 실시되었다. 교육 종료 후 교육 참여자 24명과 4회의 FGI(focus group interview)를 실시하였다. CPE 교육에 참여한 사회복지사들에게는 개인적 차원에서(자기성찰의 일상화, 개인의 영성과 사회복지사의 영성의 통합, 자기비움과 이타성 추구), 실천 행위에 있어서(클라이언트의 개별성 인정, 해결책 제공의 강박관념에서 탈피, 공감적 경청 실천), 조직 내적 차원에서(끈끈한 동료의식의 생성, 수평적인 조직관계) 많은 변화가 있었다. 사회복지사 개인과 조직이 동시에 성장할 수 있도록 사회복지조직이 소속 사회복지사들의 개인적 영성의 발달을 돕고, 개인적 영성과 조직의 영성이 통합될 수 있는 방향으로 조직의 변화를 추구하는 것이 필요하다.

With the advent of IoT technology and Big Data computing, the importance of WSNs (Wireless Sensor Networks) has been on the rise. For energy-efficient and collection-efficient delivery of any sensed data, lots of novel wireless medium access control (MAC) protocols have been proposed and these MAC schemes are the basis of many IoT systems that leads the upcoming fourth industrial revolution. WSNs play a very important role in collecting Big Data from various IoT sensors. Also, due to the limited amount of battery driving the sensors, energy-saving MAC technologies have been recently studied. In addition, as new IoT technologies for Big Data computing emerge to meet different needs, both sensors and sinks need to be mobile. To guarantee stability of WSNs with dynamic topologies as well as frequent physical changes, the existing MAC schemes must be tuned for better adapting to the new WSN environment which includes energy-efficiency and collection-efficiency of sensors, coverage of WSNs and data collecting methods of sinks. To address these issues, in this paper, a self-organization scheme for mobile sensor networks with mobile multiple sinks has been proposed and verified to adapt both mobile sensors and multiple sinks to 3-dimensional group management MAC protocol. Performance evaluations show that the proposed scheme outperforms the previous schemes in terms of the various usage cases. Therefore, the proposed self-organization scheme might be adaptable for various computing and networking environments with big data.

Purpose: This study was conducted in order to understand the influence of professionalism on job satisfaction and job performance of the physical therapist. Methods: Subjects were 148 physical therapists. We conducted a questionnaire survey on professionalism, job satisfaction, and job performance. Professionalism questions were 'Compliance of professional organization', 'Beliefs about public service', 'Autonomy', 'Beliefs about self-regulation', and 'Vocation awareness of the profession'. A regression analysis was then performed. Results: The subjects' average score for professionalism was $3.18{\pm}0.31$ points. The lowest score for satisfaction was observed for 'Compliance of professional organization'. Professionalism had an effect on job satisfaction. 'Vocation awareness of the profession (${\beta}=0.44$, p<0.001)', 'Beliefs about public service (${\beta}=0.25$, p<0.01)', and 'Autonomy (${\beta}=0.17$, p<0.05)' had an effect on job satisfaction. R square=0.46 (adjusted R square=0.45). Professionalism had an effect on job performance. 'Autonomy (${\beta}=0.29$), p<0.001)', 'Vocation awareness of the profession (${\beta}=0.22$, p<0.05)', and 'Beliefs about self-regulation (${\beta}=0.18$, p<0.05)' had an effect on job performance. R square=0.25 (adjusted R square=0.22). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that in order to improve job satisfaction and job performance, it is necessary to improve professionalism. Therefore physical therapists should improve their professionalism ('Compliance of professional organization', 'Beliefs about public service', 'Autonomy', 'Beliefs about self-regulation', and 'Vocation awareness of the profession') in order to improve their job satisfaction and job performance. In addition, research to improve professionalism of the physical therapist should be continued.

대형 무선 센서 네트워크(WSNs)는 일반적으로 수백에서 수천 개의 센서 노드들로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 대형 WSNs는 비용 및 에너지를 고려한 에너지 효율성뿐만 아니라 네트워크의 유지 및 관리가 요구된다. 사용자는 효율적인 시스템을 통해서 사용자 수준의 센싱 서비스 품질을 제공받을 수 있어야 한다. 이 네트워크에서 사용자에게 제공되는 결과 데이터의 품질은 이벤트 검출에 관련된 센서들의 개수가 결정적인 역할을 한다. 그러므로 사용자 요구 품질에 적합한 QoS를 제공할 수 있는 네트워크 프로토콜은 일부 센서 노드들에서 에러가 발생하더라고 전체 시스템 성능에 영향을 주지 않으면서, 동시에 에너지 소비가 최소화되도록 설계되어야 한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 프로토콜은 LEACH(Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy) 프로토콜을 기반으로 하며, 지속적인 감시가 요구되는 대형 네트워크에 적합한 역할 기반의 자가 구성 프로토콜을 제안하였다.

상이한 망이 공존하는 LTE-Advanced에서 기존 음성 서비스에 적용된 절차적이고 정적인 제어방식으로는 서비스 연속성을 효과적으로 지원하는 것은 현실적으로 어렵다고 여겨진다. 본 논문에서는 SON를 기반으로 서비스 연속성을 효과적으로 지원하기 위한 서비스 자기-조직화를 제시하고자 한다. SON을 통하여 가입자 단말기는 자신의 현재 상태 및 주변 기지국 정보를 수집하고, 기지국은 내부 및 인접한 기지국 모니터링으로 수집된 정보를 통하여, 관련 제어 데이터를 공유하고 이를 종합 분석하여 서비스 연속성을 자체적으로 조절/제어하는 방법을 제안한다. 서비스 자기-조직화는 단말기 및 기지국의 상태 정보 변화에 따라 관련 기능(여기서 기능은 ISHO, 셀 선정, 자원 할당, 부하 제어, QoS 매핑 등을 의미함)의 설정을 동적으로 제어하고, 각각의 기능들이 변화에 적응하여 조정되고 재구성하는 과정을 주고받으면서 각 기능들이 상호 작용하게 된다. 이러한 동작들이 서비스 자기-조직화를 통하여 서비스 연속성을 만족시키는 방향으로 이루어진다. 자원 이용률과 outage 확률을 성능척도로 하여 수행된 시뮬레이션 결과에 의하면 제안된 방안은 기존 방안에 비하여 더 우수한 성능을 가짐이 확인된다.
