  • 본 연구는 한농대에서 발간하는 청년 농어업인들의 우수한 영어·영농 정착사례에서 의미 있는 정보를 추출하고자 프로그램 R의 Text mining으로 주요단어를 추출하고 시각화를 위하여 word cloud를 작성하였다. 먼저 전체 표본에 대한 text mining 결과에서는 '대표', '이사', '생각', '자신', '시작', '마음', '노력' 등이 상위 50개 핵심 단어 가운데 빈도수가 높게 나타난 단어들이다. 이는 젊은 농부들이 회사의 경영주가 되기 위해서거나 또는 경영주로서 그들 스스로 생각하고 판단하고 추진하는 능력을 갖추고 있음을 표현이며 자기의 꿈을 버리지 않고 스스로 꿈꾸는 일을 헤쳐 나가는 모습의 표현이라 할 수 있다. '아버지', '부친' 및 '부모님' 등의 단어 빈도수가 높은 것은 부모협농과 승계농의 비율이 높은 경영형태의 영향이라 할 수 있으며, '한국농수산대학', '대학', '졸업', '공부' 등의 단어는 이들의 높은 교육의식을 나타낸 결과이며, '유기농'과 '친환경' 의 단어는 우수사례자들의 친환경 농업에 대한 관심도를 나타낸 결과라 할 수 있다. 또한 '판매', '체험' 등의 6차산업 관련어는 농어업·농어촌을 활성화시키기 위한 이들의 노력을 나타내는 결과라 할 수 있다. 한편 '인터넷', '블로그', '온라인', '홈페이지', 'SNS', 'ICT', '융복합' 및 '스마트' 등의 단어들은 비록 상위 50위 안에는 없었으나 이들 단어들이 빠지지 않고 추출된 결과는 영어·영농의 과학화·첨단화에 청년농부들의 관심이 높아지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 다음으로 품목별 샘플에 대하여 빈도수가 상위 50위 이내인 주요단어를 그룹화 한 결과로서 축산, 채소 및 수산은 '시설', 식량작물은 '장비', '기계' 등의 빈도수가 높게 나타냈다. '친환경'은 채소작물과 식량작물에서 나타났으며, '유기농'은 채소, 식량작물, 과수에서 나타났다. 식량작물에서는 '우렁이'가 추출되었으며, 우수농수산물을 의미하는 '인증'은 수산에서만 나타났다. '6차산업' 관련단어로 '생산'은 모든 계열, '가공', '유통'은 과수, '체험'은 채소, 식량작물 및 과수에서 나타났다. 그리고 텍스트 마이닝으로 추출한 단어를 시각화하기 위하여 전체 샘플과 각 품목별로 word cloud를 작성하여 구조화되지 않은 비정형 텍스트인 우수사례들이 내포하고 있는 의미를 글자의 크기로 알 수 있도록 나타냈다.

  • 본 연구는 해외 농업스타트업(Agricultural startup)을 대상으로 그 성공요인을 검토 및 도출하고 이의 통합적 연구모델(Model)에 관해 연구하였다. 농업스타트업과 일반 스타트업은 창업 이후 자원기반관점에서 열악한 자원과 인프라가 존재한다는 공통점이 있지만, 농업 스타트업은 1차 산업 특성상 일반 스타트업과는 차별적 접근이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 기업내부요인(인적자원/비전/유통망역량/자본역량/재배작물/물적자원/영농기술력 등)과 기업외부요인(농업인프라/법·규제/주변사회와의 관계 등)으로 접근하고 기존의 다양한 연구모델, 성공요인, 기업가정신을 중심으로 통합 가능한 연구모델을 구축하고자 하였다. 이를 통해 국내외 농업스타트업(agricultural Startup) 창업준비자, 창업가 등의 기업가들과 사업관련자, 그리고 통합적 이해를 필요로하는 연구자들에게 실질적 도움이 되는 통합모델(Model) 제시를 목적으로 하였다. 본 논문에서는 농업스타트업 성공요인 모델링(Modeling)을 위해 규모와 특성에 따라 3가지 형태(기존 농업스타트업, 중소규모기업 스타트업, 다국적기업 및 포괄적 접근)를 통해 표준모델을 수립하였다. 이를 통해 총 9개(영농관리, 외부환경, 경영자/창업자 특성, 기업정체성, 경영관리, 조직문화, 인프라, 사업화 역량, 지속가능성장)의 성공요인을 도출 하였다. 본 연구의 시사점은 다양한 국내외 농업스타트업 사례에 대해 '기업가정신'을 기반으로 농업스타트업 성공요인을 통합적으로 제시한점, 기존연구가 사례별 연구로 인해 나열식 성공요인 제시였다면 내용분석을 통한 의미적 범주화를 확인함으로써 향후 농업스타트업 성공요인에 대한 표준모델을 제시한 점, 그 결과 향후 관련연구의 체계적 연구와 실무적 실효성 확보를 위한 토대를 제시했다는데 있다.

  • 본 조사는 유기물과 미량금속 오염이 의심되는 울산만에서 저서환경의 교란 유무와 정도를 파악하기 위해 수행되었다. 현장조사는 울산만 안팎에 선정된 9개 정점에서 2006년 2월부터 11월까지 계절별로 저서환경과 대형저서동물군집에 대해 동시에 이루어졌다. 유기물 함량(TOC)은 평균 1.7% 이었으며 미량금속 중 As, Cu, Pb, Zn의 농도는 거의 모든 정점에서 최소영향수준(ERL)을 초과하였다. 저서동물군집의 총 출현종수는 199종, 평균 서식밀도는 4,578 개체/$m^2$ 이었으며 다모류가 가장 우세한 동물군이었다. 주요 우점종은 Aphelochaeta monilaris(22.6%), Ruditapes philippinarum(17.1%), Magelona japonica(12.2%), Lumbrineris longifolia(9.9%) 등이었으며 정점별 환경 특성에 따라 뚜렷이 다른 분포 양상을 보였다. 다변량분석 결과, 울산만 상단, 내만역, 내만역 중 태화강과 고사천이 만나는 지점 그리고 외해역에서 서로 다른 4개의 군집이 확인되었으며 특히 울산만 내의 군집 이질성이 두드러지게 나타났다. SIMPER 분석 결과, 4개 군집에서는 각각 R. philippinarum-Capitella capitata, A. monilaris-Balanoglossus carnosus, Sinocorophium sinensis-Cyathura higoensis 그리고 M. japonica-Ampharete arctica가 특징적으로 출현하였다. 전체 군집의 종조성과 밀도의 시.공간적 변화에 대해 가장 밀접한 상관성을 보인 환경 요인은 수심, 입도, 유기물 함량이었으며 중금속 중 Zn도 주요 항목에 포함되었다.

  • 동해 한국대지의 정상부 해저산 사면에서 획득한 코어퇴적물의 퇴적상 분석, 입도와 구성성분 분석, $^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr$ 초기비를 이용한 연대측정을 통하여, 세 단계에 걸친 코어퇴적물의 퇴적과정을 해석하였다. 코어의 하부 구간인 Unit I-a (코어깊이 $465{\sim}587cm$)는 주로 폭풍파에 의해 재동된 천해성 탄산염퇴적물로 이루어져 있으며, 이매패류와 부유성 유공충의 $^{87}Sr/^{86}Sr$ 초기비를 분석한 결과, 퇴적물의 생성시기가 약 $13{\sim}15Ma$(마이오세 중기)로 나타났다. 이는 당시 이 지역 일대가 폭풍파의 영향을 받는 천해환경이었음을 의미한다. Unit I-b (코어깊이 431$\sim$465 cm)는 저탁류에 의해 운반된 퇴적물로 이루어져 있으며, 이매패류와 부유성 유공충의 생성연대는 각각 약 $11{\sim}14Ma$, 약 $6{\sim}13Ma$인 것으로 분석되었다. 이로부터 11 Ma까지는 이 지역 일대가 천해환경을 유지하고 있었으나 그 이후로는 침강하기 시작하였음을 알 수 있다. 그러나 부유성 유공충은 11 Ma 이후에도 지속적으로 생성되어 퇴적물 내에 공급되었으며, 이렇게 생성된 퇴적물들은 연안이나 사면과 같은 근해역에 퇴적되어 있다가 6 Ma 경에 저탁류에 의해 사면 아래로 재동되어 퇴적된 것으로 해석된다. Unit II (코어깊이 $0{\sim}431cm$)는 주로 원양성 퇴적물로 이루어져 있으며, 부유성 유공충의 생성연대가 약 1 Ma로 분석되어, 이로부터 Unit I-b와 Unit II 사이에 약 5 Ma 정도의 결층(hiatus)이 있는 것을 알 수 있다. 또한 Unit II가 퇴적되었던 1 Ma 경에는 이 지역 일대가 충분히 침강하여 현재와 같이 수심 600 m 이상의 심해저환경을 이루고 있었으나, 때때로 주변의 급경사의 사면으로부터 암설류나 저탁류에 의해 조립질 천해퇴적물이나 화산쇄설물 등이 재동되어 퇴적된 것으로 해석된다.

  • 본 연구는 서울시에서 조성한 소규모 생물서식공간을 대상으로 유형분류를 실시하여 대표 대상지의 입지특성, 서식처 구조 및 생물서식기능, 위협요인을 분석, 종합하고 유형별 생태적 특성에 따른 조성 및 관리 문제점을 도출하여 개선방안과 관리항목을 제시하고자 하였다. 39개소를 대상으로 현장조사 자료를 통해 수집한 데이터를 이용하여 유형화하였으며, 유형화를 위한 분류기준으로 입지, 수계, 규모로 구분하여 대표 대상지 8개소를 선정하였다. 유형별 특성으로 입지는 배후산림 연결성이 낮거나, 단절되어 양서류 이동이 불리한 곳에 조성되었으며, 물 공급으로는 상시 유량 확보 및 일정한 수심 유지가 불안정하였다. 서식처 구조는 면적이 작으며, 양서류 서식에 불리한 인공형 서식구조, 토사 유입 가능성과 호안부의 훼손 등이 있었고 생물서식기능은 습지식물 부족과 귀화초본 분포, 위협요인으로는 주변으로 등산로 개설과 데크 등의 시설 인접으로 인위적인 교란이 발생하고 있었다. 유형별 특성에 따른 조성 시, 개선방안 제시 내용으로 양서류 이동을 위한 배후산림 연결과 물공급이 가능한 곳에 입지하는데 인위적인 물공급 가능성 검토와 지속적인 인입 유도를 위한 수체계 시스템을 도입할 필요가 있었다. 서식처 구조는 가능한 규모를 크게 하거나, 소규모는 여러 개를 연계하여 자연형 수변구조로 조성해야 할 것이다. 또한, 양서류 은신처 제공을 위한 습지식물 추가 도입과 산책로 등의 시설은 이동루트 확보 이외의 지역에 설치하여 인위적인 교란을 방지해야 할 것이다. 조성 후, 관리방안은 양서류 서식을 위한 다양한 수심 유지와 토사 유입에 의한 사면 안정화, 호안부 훼손 보수, 귀화초본 및 개방수면 확보를 위한 고사 식물체, 퇴적물 제거 등의 관리로 인위적인 관리는 최소화해야 할 것이다. 본 연구 결과, 기 적용된 기법의 문제점 분석을 통해 생물서식기능 향상을 위한 개선방안을 제시하고 이를 토대로 향후, 서울시를 비롯하여 소규모 생물서식공간을 조성하려는 지방자치단체에 도시환경에 적합한 소규모 생물서식공간 조성 및 관리방안을 제공할 수 있다는 데 의의가 있다.

  • 본 연구에서는 강진 고성사 청동보살좌상을 대상으로 과학적 분석을 통해 불상의 제작기술 및 납 원료산지에 대한 연구를 실시하였다. 불상에서 수습한 극미량의 시료를 대상으로 미세조직 관찰결과 주조 공정을 통해 제작되었음을 알 수 있었다. 이어 SEM-EDS를 통한 합금조성비 분석결과 구리(Cu) 81.26wt% 주석(Sn) 16.42wt%, 납(Pb) 1.72wt%의 삼원계 합금으로 확인되었다. 열이온화질량분석기(TIMS)를 이용한 납동위원소비 분석결과를 한반도 납동위원소비 분포도에 대입한 결과 전라도와 충청도 지역, 경상남·북도 지역에 도시되었다. 불상이 봉안된 강진 고성사는 해당영역의 사이에 위치하고 있다. 이러한 과학적 분석결과를 종합해 볼 때 강진 고성사 청동보살좌상은 구리, 주석, 납을 합금하여 주조하였으며, 불상제작 시 사용된 납 원료는 고성사 인근 지역에서 수급하여 사용한 것으로 판단된다. 이때 주목할 점은 해당 불상이 높이 51cm의 중·대형 불상임에도 불구하고 합금조성비 분석결과 기존 선행연구에서 제시한 소형 청동 및 금동제 불상의 납 함량비와 유사한 경향성을 보이고 있다는 것이다. 이에 불상의 크기와 납 함량비 간의 연관성을 고찰하고자 고성사 청동보살좌상과 조성연대가 유사한 청동 및 금동제 불상의 형태학적 특징 및 합금조성비 등 전반적인 제작기술을 비교분석 하였다. 비교결과 청동 및 금동제 불상의 합금조성비를 결정하는 요인에는 불상의 크기 뿐만 아니라 양식적인 특징, 조성연대 등 다양한 요인이 존재할 수 있으며, 이에 따라 불상을 조성할 당시 합금조성비 또는 주조기술을 적절히 조절하였을 가능성을 확인하였다. 즉, 불상의 제작기술 연구를 위해서는 방사선 투과촬영조사 등을 활용한 내부구조 관찰, 미세조직관찰 및 합금조성비 분석 등의 과학적 분석결과 뿐만 아니라 양식적 특징 및 조성연대에 관한 고고·미술사학적 연구를 함께 진행함으로서 보다 종합적인 불상 제작기술체계에 대한 규명이 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

  • B2B 시장에서 구매자와 판매자간의 관계는 매우 밀접하고 장기화되는 것이 특징이므로 결국 단순한 제품을 판매하는 것에 그치는 것이 아닌 지속적인 서비스에 대한 중요성이 날로 커지고 있다. 산업재 연구 전반에 걸쳐서도 서비스에 대한 중요성과 관심이 증대되면서 고객이 서비스를 사용하는데 있어서 그 서비스의 품질과 함께 최근 소비자들은 얼마나 빠르고 쉽게 서비스가 제공되어 투입되는 노력을 최소화시킬 수 있는가를 매우 중요하게 생각하기 때문에 편의성이 중요한 요인으로 고려되어지고 있다. 이에 따라, 본 연구에서는 산업재 시장에서 관계만족과 관계성과를 형성하는데 중요하게 생각할 수 있는 새로운 요인이 어떤 것인가 라는 의문점에서 출발하여, 서비스 편의성과 관계성과 사이의 구조적 관계를 조사하고자 하였다. 이 연구의 가장 큰 학문적 기여점은 산업재 연구에서 주류를 이루고 있는 관계품질과 관계성과의 새로운 선행요인을 검증한 것이다. 또한 소비재 시장에서 주로 연구되었던 서비스 편의성 척도를 산업재 시장에 적용하여 그 활용도를 실험해 보았다는 데 의의가 있다. 본 연구는 서비스 편의성의 구성요소인 서비스 편의성을 결정편의성, 접근편의성, 거래편의 성, 편익편의성, 사후편익편의성 다섯가지 차원으로 구분하고 관계적 요인인 관계만족에 미치는 영향과 이러한 관계만족이 관계몰입과 관계성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 분석하여 서비스 편의성의 관리와 투자에 대한 마케팅 측면의 중요성을 제시하고 있다. 실증분석을 위해 산업재 서비스를 이용하고 있는 기업의 직원들을 대상으로 설문을 통해 데이터를 수집하였으며 서비스 편의성 ${\rightarrow}$ 관계만족 ${\rightarrow}$ 관계몰입 $\{rightarrow}$ 관계성과에 대한 인과적 구성모텔에 대해 구조방정식 모델분석으로 검증하였다. 구성모텔에 대한 분석결과 서비스 편의성을 구성하는 요소 중 접근편의성을 제외한 나머지 결정편의성, 거래편의성, 편익편의성, 사후편익편의성은 모두 관계적 요인들에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤으며, 그 중 편익편의성이 관계적 요인에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 추가적으로 매개효과검증을 실시하여, 서비스 편의성과 관계성과의 관계를 살펴보는데 있어서, 서비스 편의성이 관계만족과 관계몰입을 통해서 관계성과에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 구조적 인 관계를 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이는 높은 서비스 편의성에 대한 관리와 투자가 구매자로 하여금 관계에 만족하게 만들고 이렇게 형성된 관계만족은 관계에 몰입하게 하여 결과적으로는 관계성과를 가져올 수 있음을 시사한다.

  • 제조 중소기업들은 지속적인 성장과 생존을 위해 새로운 제품 개발에 필요한 많은 정보가 필요할 뿐만 아니라 자원의 한계를 극복하기 위한 네트워킹(networking)을 추구하지만, 규모의 한계로 인해 한계점에 봉착하게 된다. 초연결성으로 인해 비즈니스 환경의 복잡성과 불확실성이 더욱 높아지는 새로운 시대에 중소기업은 신속한 정보 확보와 네트워킹 문제를 해결이 더욱 절실해지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 공공기관인 정부출연(연)구기관(이하 '출연(연)')은 중소기업의 정보 비대칭성 문제를 해결해야하는 중요한 임무와 역할을 맞이하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 비즈니스 인텔리젼스의 경쟁 지능화(competitive intelligence) 기능과 외부 네트워크 활성화를 위한 서비스 인프라(service infrastructure)의 기능을 포함한 공공 정보지원 인프라를 통한 간접지원의 성과를 확산하고자 하는 목적으로 출연(연)이 중소기업의 혁신역량 제고를 위해 제공하는 공공 정보지원 인프라를 활용하는 중소기업의 차별적 특징을 파악하고, 인프라가 기업의 성과에 어떻게 기여하는 가를 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 첫째, 출연(연)이 제공한 정보지원 인프라를 활용하는 제조 중소기업은 다른 중소기업과 어떤 차별적인 특정이 있는가? 라는 연구 질의를 도출하였다. 추가적으로 단순히 선택적 편의 여부를 판단하는 것을 넘어서 출연(연) 정보지원 인프라를 활용한 제조 중소기업의 특징을 복수 집단의 특징과 비교하는 연구를 진행하였다. 둘째, 출연(연)이 제공하는 정보지원 인프라를 활용한 제조 중소기업의 외부 네트워킹 역량이 제품 경쟁력에 어떻게 기여했는가? 라는 연구 질의이다. 본 연구에서 공공 정보지원 인프라에 의해서 강화된 외부 네트워킹 역량이 어떻게 제품 경쟁력에 영향을 미쳤는지 정밀하게 분석하기 위해 복수의 변수에 대한 매개 및 조절 효과 분석을 수행하였다. 연구 모형을 도출하기하기 위해 첫째, 외부 네트워킹이 기술혁신성과에 영향력에 대한 평가를 수행하였다. 일반적으로 기업들은 외부 네트워킹(networking) 전략을 통해 혁신에 필요한 가치 있는 정보를 획득할 수 있기 때문에 기술혁신성과를 높일 수 있다. 정보 획득은 중소 제조기업 경영자의 혁신에 대한 인식을 강화할 뿐만아니라, 의사결정을 효율적으로 하여 경쟁력을 강화시킬 수 있게 된다. 대기업에 비해 인력과 자금의 규모 한계를 극복하기 위해 중소기업은 외부 조직과의 협력관계를 보다 적극적으로 추구한다. 둘째, 기술사업화 역량이 기술혁신성과에 미치는 관계에 대한 평가를 수행하였다. 기술사업화는 생산과 마케팅을 통합하여 새로운 기술을 만드는 역량을 말한다. 우수한 생산 역량을 보유한 기업은 소비자의 수요를 가격, 품질, 신기능 측면에서 신속하게 충족시킬 수 있어 시장내 경쟁우위를 창출하고, 그 결과로 높은 재무적 혁신적 성과를 가져온다고 본다. 혁신적인 기업은 생산 역량과 마케팅 역량에서 일반 기업보다 높은 성과를 나타내는데, 기술혁신성과의 대표 지표로 제품 경쟁력을 지목하고 있다. 마지막으로 기업의 규모가 작을수록 새로운 혁신 정보를 확보할 수 있는 자체 정보지원 인프라가 없는 경향이 있다. 중소기업용 정보인프라는 기업의 제품 또는 서비스 역량을 강화하기 위한 전략에 필요한 중요한 정보를 확보할 수 있어야 하며, 데이터에 대한 해석 기능이 있어야 하고, 기업의 성장과 발전을 위한 다양한 주제(대기업, 공급자, 소비자 등)와의 협력 전략을 수립을 도울 수 있는 기능이 요구된다. 종합하면, 연구모형은 외부 네트워킹 역량(독립변수)이 기술혁신성과인 제품 경쟁력(종속변수)에 영향을 주는 기본 모형에 기술사업화 역량을 매개요인으로 적용하였고, 이들의 관계에 기업의 내부역량(연구원 집중도, 매출액, 업력)이 영향을 줄 수 있기 때문에 기업의 내부역량과 관련된 변수들을 통제하였다. 또한 KISTI가 제공한 공공 정보지원 인프라 활용한 기업별 역량 차이를 분석하기 위해, 정보지원 인프라 활용(효율성)과 관련된 KISTI 외부 기술사업화 전문가(멘토링) 정보지원 횟수의 조절 변수로 고려하였다. 본 연구에서 활용한 데이터 원천은 2차 정보인 '제8차 중소기업 기술통계조사' 자료와 1차 정보인 KISTI의 직접 설문 자료다. '제8차 중소기업 기술통계조사' 는 중소기업청과 중소기업중앙회에서 공동으로 매년 실시되고 있으며, 설문 조사의 모집단은 종사자수 5인 이상 300인 미만인 제조업 및 제조업 외 기업 중에서 기술개발을 수행하고 있는 중소기업 43,204개사이다. 이 중에서 2014년 12월 31일 현재 기준으로 기술개발을 수행하고 있는 3,300개 중소기업을 표본추출하여 방문조사를 실시하여 수집한 자료이다. 본 연구에서 KISTI의 정보지원 인프라를 통해 지원받은 290개의 KISTI 패밀리 기업(ASTI)을 대상으로 2017년에 전자 메일을 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 송부된 290개의 설문지 중 222개의 기업에서 회신을 보내왔으며 그 중에서 설문 내용이 유효한 설문 조사는 149건으로 활용율은 51.3%였다. 분석 결과에 대한 살펴보면 다음과 같다. 규모면에서는 공공 정보지원 인프라 활용 제조 중소기업(ASTI 설문 집단)과 R&D 중소기업(KBIZ 설문 집단)의 성향은 통계적으로 유의미하게 차이가 있었지만, 보다 많은 변수를 종합적으로 보면 크게 다르지 않은 집단이라고 판단했다. 공공 정보지원 인프라를 활용하는 제조 중소기업은 이미 출연(연)과 협업이 가능한 집단을 대표하는 성향 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 외부 네트워킹 역량 강화가 제품 경쟁력 제고에 기여하는데 있어서 기술사업화 역량(마케팅 및 생산 역량)이 가지는 매개 효과의 가능성을 탐색하기 위해서 먼저 통제 변수는 고려하지 않고, Baron과 Kenny(1986)의 매개 효과 분석을 수행했다. 분석결과 외부 네트워크 역량 강화 효과가 제품 경쟁력을 강화시키는 것으로 보였지만, 실제는 기술사업화 역량의 제고를 통해 제품 경쟁력을 강화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 공공 정보지원 인프라 활용의 효과성을 판단하기 위한 멘토링 정보지원 횟수의 조절효과 분석을 위해 3단계의 위계적 회귀분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과 외부 네트워킹 역량과 멘토링 정보지원 횟수의 상호작용항이 혁신성과(제품 경쟁력)에 유의한 영향을 미쳤을 뿐 아니라, 모델의 설명력도 증가하여, 멘토링 정보지원 횟수의 조절 효과가 검증되었다. 마지막으로 앞서 확인된 복수 매개효과와 조절효과가 동시에 나타날 수 있는 가능성을 판단하기 위해서 매개된 조절효과를 검토했다. 분석결과 외부 네트워킹 역량이 높아지면 제품 경쟁력 제고에 양의 영향을 주지만, 조절 변수인 멘토링 지원 횟수가 높아질수록 그 영향은 오히려 약화되었다. 그리고 외부 네트워킹 역량이 높아지면 사업화 역량(마케팅과 생산)이 높아져서 제품 경쟁력이 높아지며, 조절변수인 멘토링 지원 횟수가 높아지면 독립변수 외부 네트워킹 역량이 매개변수 생산 역량에 미치는 역량이 작아졌다. 종합하면, 외부 네트워킹 역량의 제고는 제품 경쟁력을 높이는데 기여하는데, 직접적 기여하지는 않지만 마케팅과 생산 역량을 높여 간접적으로 기여한다(완전 매개 효과). 또한 이 과정에서 멘토링의 정보적 지원 횟수는 외부 네트워킹 역량 제고가 생산 역량을 제고하는 매개효과에 영향을 준다(순수 조절 효과). 그러나 멘토링 정보 지원 횟수는 마케팅 역량 제고와 제품경쟁력에 별다른 조절 효과를 보이진 않는 것으로 나타났다. 연구를 통한 시사점은 다음과 같다. KISTI의 정보지원 인프라는 서비스 활용 마케팅이 이미 잘 진행되고 있다는 결론을 이끌 수도 있지만, 반면에 시장의 정보 불균형을 해소하는 공공적 기능보다는(열위 기업 지원) 성과가 잘 도출될 수 있는 집단을 지원해서(의도적 선택적 편의) 성과가 잘 나타나도록 관리하고 있다는 결론에 이를 수 있다. 연구 결과를 통해서 우리는 공공 정보지원 인프라가 어떻게 제품경쟁력 제고에 기여하는지 확인했는데, 여기서 우리는 다음과 같은 몇 가지 정책적 시사점을 도출할 수 있다. 첫째, 정보지원 인프라는 분석된 정보뿐만아니라 이 정보를 제공하는 기관(또는 전문가)과 지속적인 교류나 이런 기관을 찾는 역량을 높이는 기능이 있어야 한다. 둘째, 공공 정보지원 (온라인) 인프라의 활용이 효과적이라면 병행적인 오프라인 지원인 정보 멘토링이 지속적으로 제공될 필요는 없으며, 오히려 멘토링과 같은 오프라인 병행 지원은 성과 제고보다는 이상징후 감시에 적절한 장치로 활용되어야 한다. 셋째, 셋째, 공공 정보지원 인프라를 통한 네트워킹 역량 제고와 이를 통한 제품경쟁력 제고 효과는 특정 중소기업에서 나타나기 보다는 대부분 형태의 기업에서 나타나기 때문에, 중소기업이 활용 능력을 제고할 노력이 요구된다.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70$\pm$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32$\pm$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500, 550, 570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500, 550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100, 300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3, 000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec.

  • The wall shear stress in the vicinity of end-to end anastomoses under steady flow conditions was measured using a flush-mounted hot-film anemometer(FMHFA) probe. The experimental measurements were in good agreement with numerical results except in flow with low Reynolds numbers. The wall shear stress increased proximal to the anastomosis in flow from the Penrose tubing (simulating an artery) to the PTFE: graft. In flow from the PTFE graft to the Penrose tubing, low wall shear stress was observed distal to the anastomosis. Abnormal distributions of wall shear stress in the vicinity of the anastomosis, resulting from the compliance mismatch between the graft and the host artery, might be an important factor of ANFH formation and the graft failure. The present study suggests a correlation between regions of the low wall shear stress and the development of anastomotic neointimal fibrous hyperplasia(ANPH) in end-to-end anastomoses. 30523 T00401030523 ^x Air pressure decay(APD) rate and ultrafiltration rate(UFR) tests were performed on new and saline rinsed dialyzers as well as those roused in patients several times. C-DAK 4000 (Cordis Dow) and CF IS-11 (Baxter Travenol) reused dialyzers obtained from the dialysis clinic were used in the present study. The new dialyzers exhibited a relatively flat APD, whereas saline rinsed and reused dialyzers showed considerable amount of decay. C-DAH dialyzers had a larger APD(11.70${\pm}$1.32mmHg/min)compared to CF dialyzers(4.32${\pm}$0.55mmHg/min)(p<0.05). However, there was no observable difference in the UFR between the two dialyzers. Neither APD nor UFR showed any significant increase with an increasing number of reuses for up to more than 20reuses. A substantial number of failures observed in APD(larger than 20mmHe/min)on the reused dialyzers(2 out of 40 CP and S out 26 C-DAK) were attributed to the Possible damage on the fibers. The CF 15-11 HFDs which failed APD test did not show changes in the UFR compared to normal dialyzers indicating that APD is a more sensitive test than UFR test to evaluate the integrity of the fibers. 30527 T00401030527 ^x For quantitative measurement of reflected light from a clinical diagnostic strip, a prototype old reflectance photometer was designed. The strip loader and cassette were made to obtain more accurate reflectance parameters. The strip was illuminated at 45˚c through optical fiber and the intensity of reflected light was determined at rectanguLat angle using a photodiode. The kubelka-munk coefficient and reflection optical density were determined ar four different wavelengths(500,550,570 and 610nm) for blood glucose strip. For higher concentration than 300mg/41 about glucose, a saturation state of abforbance was observed at 500,550 and 570nm. The correlation between glucose concentration and parameters was the best at 610nm. 30535 T00401030535 ^x Radiation-induced fibrosarcoma tumors were grown on the flanks of C3H mice. The mice were divided into two groups. One group was injected with Photofrin II, intravenously (2.5mg/kg body weight). The other group received no Photofrin II. Mice from both groups were irradialed for approximately 15 minutes at 100,300, or 500 mW/cm2 with the argon (488nm/514.5 nm), dye(628nm) and gold vapor (pulsed 628 nm) laser light. A photosensitizer behaved as an added absorber. Under our experimental conditions, the presence of Photolfrin II increased surface temperature by at least 40% and the temperature rise due to 300 mW/cm2 irradiation exceeded values for hyperthermia. Light and temperature distributions with depth were estimated by a computer model. The model demonstrated the influence of wavelength on the thermal process and proved to be a valuable tool to investigate internal temperature rise. 30536 T00401030536 ^x We investigated the structural geometry of thirty-eight Korean femurs. The purpose of this study is to identify major geometrical differences between Korean femurs 3nd others that we believe belong to Caucasians so that we would be able to get insights into the femoral component design that fits Asians including Koreans. We utilized computerized tomography (CT) images of femurs extracted from cadavers. The CT images were transformed into bitmap data by using a film scanner, and then analyzed by using a commercially available software called Image v.1.0 and a Macintosh IIci computer.The resulting data were compared with already published data. The major results show that the geometry of the Korean femurs is significantly different from that of Caucasians: (1) the anteversion angle and the canal flare index are greater by the amount of approximately 8˚ and 0.5, respectively, (2) the shape of the isthmus cross section is more round, and (3) the distance between the teaser trochanter and the proximal border of the isthmus is shelter by about 15 mm. The results suggested that the femoral component suitable for Asians should be different from the currently-used components designed and manufactured mostly by European or American companies. 30537 T00401030537 ^x It is well known that nonlinear propagation characteristics of the wave in the tissue may give very useful information for the medical diagnoisis. In this paper, a new method to detect nonlinear propagation characteristics of the internal vibration in the tissue for the low frequency mechanical vibration by using bispectral analysis is proposed. In the method, low frequency vibration of f0( = 100Hz) is applied on the surface of the object, and the waveform of the internal vibration x (t) is measured from Doppler frequency modulation of silmultaneously transmitted probing ultrasonic waves. Then, the bispectra of the signal x (t) at the frequencies (f0, f0) and (f0, 2f0) are calculated to estimate the nonlinear propagation characteristics as their magnitude ratio, w here since bispectrum is free from the gaussian additive noise we can get the value with high S/N. Basic experimental system is constructed by using 3.0 MHz probing ultrasonic waves and the several experiments are carried out for some phantoms. Results show the superiority of the proposed method to the conventional method using power spectrum and also its usefulness for the tissue characterization. 30541 T00401030541 ^x This paper describes the implementation of a computerized radial pulse diagnosis by aids of a clinical expert. On this base, we composed of the radial pulse diagnosis system in korean traditional medicine. The system composed of a radial pulse wave detection system and a radial pulse diagnosis system. With a detection system, we detected Inyoung and Cheongu radial pulse wave and processed it. Then, we have got the characteristic parameters of radial pulse wave and also quantified that according to the method of Inyoung-Cheongu Comparison Radial Pulse Diagnosis. We defined the jugement standard of radial pulse diagnosis system and then we confirmed the possibility for realization of automatic radial pulse diagnosis in korean traditional medicine. 30545 T00401030545 ^x Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize microspheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio of synthesized microspheres was always smaller than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6~13 times higher than that of the microspheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin).The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined. 30575 T00401030575 ^x A medical image workstation was developed using multimedia technique. The system based on PC-486DX was designed to acquire medical images produced by medical imaging instruments and related audio information, that is, doctors' reporting results. Input information was processed and analyzed, then the results were presented in the form of graph and animation. All the informations of the system were hierarchically related with the image as the apex. Processing and analysis algorithms were implemented so that the diagnostic accuracy could be improved. The diagnosed information can be transferred for patient diagnosis through LAN(local area network). 30592 T00401030592 ^x In the conventional infrared imaging system, complex infrared lens systems are usually used for directing collimated narrow infrared beams into the high speed 2-dimensional optic scanner. In this paper, a simple reflective infrared optic system with a 2-dimensional optic scanner is proposed for the realization of medical infrared thermography system. It has been experimentally proven that the intfrared thermography system composed of the proposed optic system has the temperature resolution of 0.1˚c under the spatial resolution of lmrad, the image matrix size of 256 X 240, and tile imaging time of 4 seconds. 30593 T00401030593 ^x In this paper, MIIS (Medical Image Information System) has been designed and implemented using INGRES RDBMS, which is based on a client/server architecture. The implemented system allows users to register and retrieve patient information, medical images and diagnostic reports. It also provides the function to display these information on workstation windows simultaneously by using the designed menu-driven graphic user interface. The medical image compression/decompression techniques are implemented and integrated into the medical image database system for the efficient data storage and the fast access through the network. 30594 T00401030594 ^x In this paper, computerized BEAM was implemented for the space domain analysis of EEG. Trans-formation from temporal summation to two-dimensional mappings is formed by 4 nearest point inter-polaton method. Methods of representation of BEAM are two. One is dot density method which classify brain electrical potential 9 levels by dot density of gray levels and the other is colour method which classify brain electrical 12 levels by red-green colours. In this BEAM, instantaneous change and average energy distribution over any arbitrary time interval of brain electrical activity could be observed and analyzed easily. In the frequency domain, the distribution of energy spectrum of a special band can easily be distinguished normality and abnormality. 30608 T00401030608 ^x Laboratory information system (LIS) is a key tool to manage laboratory data in clinical pathology. Our department has developed an information system for routine hematology using down-sized computer system. We have used an IBM 486 compatible PC with 16MB main memory, 210 MB hard disk drive, 9 RS-232C port and 24 pin dot printer. The operating system and database management system were SCO UNIX and SCO foxbase, respectively. For program development, we used Xbase language provided by SCO foxbase. The C language was used for interface purpose. To make the system use friendly, pull-down menu was used. The system connected to our hospital information system via application program interface (API), so the information related to patient and request details is automatically transmitted to our computer. Our system interfaced with fwd complete blood count analyzers(Sysmex NE-8000 and Coulter STKS) for unidirectional data tansmission from analyzer to computer. The authors suggests that this system based on down-sized computer could provide a progressive approach to total LIS based on local area network, and the implemented system could serve as a model for other hospital's LIS for routine hematology. 30609 T00401030609 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atelocollagen was produced: The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength. 30618 T00401030618 ^x This paper is a study on the design of adptive filter for QRS complex detection. We propose a simple adaptive algorithm to increase capability of noise cancelation in QRS complex detection with two stage adaptive filter. At the first stage, background noise is removed and at the next stage, only spectrum of QRS complex components is passed. Two adaptive filters can afford to keep track of the changes of both noise and QRS complex. Each adaptive filter consists of prediction error filter and FIR filter The impulse response of FIR filter uses coefficients of prediction error filter. The detection rates for 105 and 108 of MIT/BIH data base were 99.3% and 97.4% respectively. 30619 T00401030619 ^x To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased. 30620 T00401030620 ^x We have developed a monoleaflet polymer valve as an inexpensive and viable alternative, especially for short-term use in the ventricular assist device or total artificial heart. The frame and leaflet of the polymer valve were made from polyurethane, To evaluate the hemodynamic performance of the polymer valve a comparative study of flow dynamics past a polymer valve and a St. Jude Medical prosthetic valve under physiological pulsatile flow conditions in vitro was made. Comparisons between the valves were made on the transvalvular pressure drop, regurgitation volume and maximum valve opening area. The polymer valve showed smaller regurgitation volume and transvalvular pressure drop compared to the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. The results showed that the functional characteristics of the polymer valve compared favorably with those of the mechanical valve at higher heart rate. 30621 T00401030621 ^x Explosive evaporative removal process of biological tissue by absorption of a CW laser has been simulated by using gelatin and a multimode Nd:YAG laser. Because the point of maximun temperature of laser-irradiated gelatin exists below the surface due to surface cooling, evaporation at the boiling temperature is made explosively from below the surface. The important parameters of this process are the conduction loss to laser power absorption (defined as the conduction-to-laser power parameter, Nk), the convection heat transfer at the surface to conduction loss (defined as Bi), dimensionless extinction coefficient (defined as Br.), and dimensionless irradiation time (defined as Fo). Dependence of Fo on Nk and Bi has been observed by experiment, and the results have been compared with the numerical results obtained by solving a 2-dimensional conduction equation. Fo and explosion depth (from the surface to the point of maximun temperature) are increased when Nk and Bi are increased.To find out the minimum laser power for explosive evaporative removal process, steady state analysis has been also made. The limit of Nk to induce evaporative removal, which is proportional to the inverse of the laser power, has been obtained. 30622 T00401030622 ^x N1 and N2 gross neural action potentials were measured from the round window of the guinea pig cochlea at the onset of the acoustic stimuli. N1-N2 audiograms were made by means of regulating stimulant intensities in order to produce constant N1-N2 potentials as criteria for different input tone pip frequencies. The lowest threshold was measured with an input tone pip I5 dB SPL in intensity and 12 KHz in frequency when the animal was in normal physiological condition. The procedure of experimental measurements is explained in detail. This experimental approach is very useful for the investigation of the Cochlear function. Both noN1inear and active functions of the Cochlea can be monitored by N1-N2 audiograms. 30623 T00401030623 ^x In electrical impedance tomography(EIT), we use boundary current and voltage measurements toprovide the information about the cross-sectional distribution of electrical impedance or resistivity. One of the major problems in EIT has been the inaccessibility of internal voltage or current data in finding the internal impedance values. We propose a new image reconstruction method using internal current density data measured by NMR. We obtained a two-dimensional current density distribution within a phantom by processing the real and imaginary MR images from a 4.77 NMR machine. We implemented a resistivity mage reconstruction algorithm using the finite element method and sensitivity matrix. We presented computer simulation results of the mage reconstruction algorithm and furture direction of the research. 30624 T00401030624 ^x A new method of digital image analysis technique for discrimination of cancer cell was presented in this paper. The object image was the Thyroid eland cells image that was diagnosed as normal and abnormal (two types of abnormal: follicular neoplastic cell, and papillary neoplastic cell), respectively. By using the proposed region segmentation algorithm, the cells were segmented into nucleus. The 16 feature parameters were used to calculate the features of each nucleus. A9 a consequence of using dominant feature parameters method proposed in this paper, discrimination rate of 91.11% was obtained for Thyroid Gland cells. 30625 T00401030625 ^x An electrical stimulator was designed to induce locomotion for paraplegic patients caused by central nervous system injury. Optimal stimulus parameters, which can minimize muscle fatigue and can achieve effective muscle contraction were determined in slow and fast muscles in Sprague-Dawley rats. Stimulus patterns of our stimulator were designed to simulate electromyographic activity monitored during locomotion of normal subjects. Muscle types of the lower extremity were classified according to their mechanical property of contraction, which are slow muscle (msoleus m.) and fast muscle (medial gastrocneminus m., rectus femoris m., vastus lateralis m.). Optimal parameters of electrical stimulation for slow muscles were 20 Hz, 0.2 ms square pulse. For fast muscle, 40 Hz, 0.3 ms square pulse was optimal to produce repeated contraction. Higher stimulus intensity was required when synergistic muscles were stimulated simultaneously than when they were stimulated individually. Electrical stimulation for each muscle was designed to generate bipedal locomotion, so that individual muscles alternate contraction and relaxation to simulate stance and swing phases. Portable electrical stimulator with 16 channels built in microprocessor was constructed and applied to paraplegic patients due to lumbar cord injury. The electrical stimulator restored partially gait function in paraplegic patients. 30626 T00401030626 ^x Two-Dimensional modelling of the Cochlear biomechanics is presented in this paper. The Laplace partial differential equation which represents the fluid mechanics of the Cochlea has been transformed into two-dimensional electrical transmission line. The procedure of this transformation is explained in detail. The comparison between one and two dimensional models is also presented. This electrical modelling of the basilar membrane (BM) is clearly useful for the next approach to the further. Development of active elements which are essential in the producing of the sharp tuning of the BM. This paper shows that two-dimension model is qualitatively better than one-dimensional model both in amplitude and phase responses of the BM displacement. The present model is only for frequency response. However because the model is electrical, the two-dimensional transmission line model can be extended to time response without any difficult. 30627 T00401030627 ^x A method has been proposed for the fully automatic detection of left ventricular endocardial boundary in 2D short axis echocardiogram using geometric model. The procedure has the following three distinct stages. First, the initial center is estimated by the initial center estimation algorithm which is applied to decimated image. Second, the center estimation algorithm is applied to original image and then best-fit elliptic model estimation is processed. Third, best-fit boundary is detected by the cost function which is based on the best-fit elliptic model. The proposed method shows effective result without manual intervention by a human operator. 30628 T00401030628 ^x The intelligent trajectory control method that controls moving direction and average velocity for a prosthetic arm is proposed by pattern recognition and force estimations using EMG signals. Also, we propose the real time trajectory planning method which generates continuous accelleration paths using 3 stage linear filters to minimize the impact to human body induced by arm motions and to reduce the muscle fatigue. We use combination of MLP and fuzzy filter for pattern recognition to estimate the direction of a muscle and Hogan's method for the force estimation. EMG signals are acquired by using a amputation simulator and 2 dimensional joystick motion. The simulation results of proposed prosthetic arm control system using the EMf signals show that the arm is effectively followed the desired trajectory depended on estimated force and direction of muscle movements. 30638 T00401030638 ^x A new neural network architecture for the recognition of patterns from images is proposed, which is partially based on the results of physiological studies. The proposed network is composed of multi-layers and the nerve cells in each layer are connected by spatial filters which approximate receptive fields in optic nerve fields. In the proposed method, patterns recognition for complicated images is carried out using global features as well as local features such as lines and end-points. A new generating method of matched filers representing global features is proposed in this network. 30659 T00401030659 ^x An implementation scheme of the magnetic nerve stimulator using a switching mode power supply is proposed. By using a switching mode power supply rather than a conventional linear power supply for charging high voltage capacitors, the weight and size of the magnetic nerve stimulator can be considerably reduced. Maximum output voltage of the developed magnetic nerve stimulator using the switching mode power supply is 3,000 volts and switching time is about 100 msec. Experimental results or human nerve stimulations using the developed stimulator are presented. 30768 T00401030768 ^x In this paper, we describe the design methodology and specifications of the developed module-based bedside monitors for patient monitoring. The bedside monitor consists of a main unit and module cases with various parameter modules. The main unit includes a 12.1" TFT color LCD, a main CPU board, and peripherals such as a module controller, Ethernet LAN card, video card, rotate/push button controller, etc. The main unit can connect at maximum three module cases each of which can accommodate up to 7 parameter modules. They include the modules for electrocardiograph, respiration, invasive blood pressure, noninvasive blood pressure, temperature, and SpO2 with Plethysmograph.
