While increased use of motor cycles in the recent years for various demands could worsen air quality, only few studies have been conducted on estimation of emission factors and characterization of emissions from motorcycle. In this study, emissions from selected six models of motorcycle based on largest market share and production rate were investigated. To investigate gaseous and carbonaceous air pollutants, such as carbon monoxide (CO), total hydrocarbon (THC), nitrogen oxide ($NO_x$), elemental carbon (EC) and organic carbon (OC), total 124 motorcycles between 2003 and 2007 model year were tested with regulatory driving conditions, such as CVS-40 and CVS-47 mode. These motorcycles were further sub-categorized based on their displacement (< 50 cc, 50~150 cc, and $\geq$ 150 cc), type of stroke (2- and 4 strokes) and model year (2003~2005 and 2006~2007). Tested motorcycles with recent model year (2006~2007) exhibited less emissions of regulatory gaseous and carbonaceous air pollutants compared to old model year (2003~2005). Chemical analysis showed that CO present in highest concentration followed by THC and $NO_x$ for all tested motorcycles. Interestingly, two strokes motorcycle produced higher THC emission but less CO and $NO_x$ than those of four strokes. For all types of displacement and stroke, emission factors (gram per kilometer) of THC and CO except $NO_x$ with recent model year (2006~2007) showed decreased trend compared to old model year (2003~2005). In addition to this, due to mixed combustion between gasoline fuel and lubricant, two strokes motorcycle showed OC > EC emission trend.

USNs (Ubiquitous Sensor Networks) such as IEEE 802.15.4 ZigBee network share ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) frequency band with WiFi networks. Once both networks operate in a region, packet collision may happen because of frequency overlapping. To assure this possibility, we conducted experiments where WiFi and ZigBee communication networks had been installed in an area. As a result of the test, successful data transmission rate were reduced due to the frequency overlapping between a WiFi communication channel and a ZigBee communication band. To cope with this problem, we propose a collision avoidance algorithm. In the proposed algorithm, if frequency collision is sensed, new communication channel with different frequency band is allocated to each node. Performance of the proposed frequency collision avoidance algorithm was tested and the results were described.

A LEA (Lightweight Encryption Algorithm) crypto-processor was designed, which supports three master key lengths of 128/ 192/256-bit, ECB and CTR modes of operation. To achieve high throughput rate, the round transformation block was designed with 128 bits datapath and a pipelined structure of 16 stages. Encryption/decryption is carried out through 12/14/16 pipelined stages according to the master key length, and each pipelined stage performs round transformation twice. The key scheduler block was optimized to share hardware resources that are required for encryption, decryption, and three master key lengths. The round keys generated by key scheduler are stored in 32 round key registers, and are repeatedly used in round transformation until master key is updated. The pipelined LEA processor was verified by FPGA implementation, and the estimated performance is about 8.3 Gbps at the maximum clock frequency of 130 MHz.

Firms grow in a competitive environment and competition can be a source of corporate growth. In an increasingly global market, companies face increased competition. As such, it is natural that all firms face some degree of risk due to competition. While firms compete for market share, they also imitate competitors in order to minimize risk that accompanies competition. This research attempts to demonstrate the effects of inter-firm competition on investment decisions. Using idiosyncratic equity returns as the instrument variable, this paper uses a two-stage least squares regression, as well as an ordinary least squares (OLS), to identify the influence of peer firms' investment decisions on a firm's own investment strategy. The results confirm that firms show stronger imitative behavior with more intense competition. Also, firms with higher debt ratios show higher peer group influence. This imitative factor provides clues to measure the risk-averseness in investment decisions.

Wireless link has high bit error rate compared with wired link and many users share this limited bandwidth. So it needs more powerful error control code and efficient media access control(MAC) to provide multimedia service reliably. In this paper we proposed efficient MAC frame format based on TDMA using mini-slot for request access. The number of mini-slots is variable based on the result of collision in the previous frame. This dynamic allocation of request mini-slots helps resolve the contention situation quickly and avoids the waste of bandwidth that may occur when there are several unneeded request mini-slots. The simulation results are also presented in terms of channel utilization, call blocking probability and cell transmission delay for mixed traffic environment.

This paper aims at investigating the reinvigoration strategy for main coastal passenger service line in Tongyoung. SWOT analysis and BCG matrix are used to sort out the their competitiveness as environmental market position. As a result of environmental situation, Tongyoung area has a positive internal and external competitive advantage, with strong land and sea tourist attractions. But a small-scale coastal passenger service firms and depression of local economy are represented as the barrier of attracting more passenger. The results of BCG matrix analysis are individual firms managing coastal passenger service in Tongyoung have a stable market position against Korean coastal passenger market in terms of market growth rate and share.

Variety media based on the digital technology have emerged from the beginning of the 21th century and have competed with the traditional media in the advertisement market. With the high dependency upon the advertisement market, the Korean media industry has the urgent demand to increase it's pie. Korea regulator allowed PPL and private representatives, which resulted in low outcome. This study analysed the decision factors for the advertising market with the cross-sectional microeconomic data for 28 countries in OECD. The service industry, tax and GDP per capita affect negatively to the market growth rate, and unemployment positively. Therefore the market's growth speed would be slow down and the share of TV decreased. Therefore the two policies were suggested, increasing the direct payment by the audiences and retire of the inefficient broadcasters.

Objectives. The standardization of connection between fixture and abutment has not been defined. The success of dental implants was not always depends on connection. However, the connection mechanism is one of the most important things for dental implant treatment success. Most implant systems are very comparable in their design and engineering. They share many common characteristics and have similar strengths and weaknesses. Their significant weaknesses are connection, microgap and the resulting micromovement allowing bacterial contamination and bone loss. In the present study, we investigated the clinical performance of Ankylos implant (conical connection implant) Patients and Methods. The clinical performance of conical connection implant was studied under well-controlled clinical conditions. A total of 133 conical connection implants were placed in 50 patients from April 2005 to March 2006. The mean follow-up loading period of implants which was considered successful was 220$\pm$29 days. We recorded the age, sex, installation site, reason of edentulous region, bone density of installation site, diameter and length of dental implants and periods from installation to uncovering surgery using patients medical chart. Results Four Ankylos implants were lost during pre-loading period. 129 implants provided excellent clinical performance during 220$\pm$29 days on an average. The short-term success rate of this conical connection implant system was 96.99%.

Based on the network, recruitment, education services, talent testing and human resources management etc. integrated services are expanded, and efforting to raise the market share of job information site. Job information site is an alternative finding job and recruiting environment, helping job seekers to conduct self-directed researching and applying for a job online. Directly or indirectly influential factors upon value of job information site are on the rise. Not only Korea but also China has already recognized the importance of these influential factors on job information site. However, the effective rate of implementing job information site is relatively lower among Chinese job market than Korea. This study suggests that there are differences of cultural background between Korea and China, and they were at different internet infrastructure, such differences impact on different job seekers.
