Recently US/EU governments are utilizing nanotechnology as a key catalyst to support national innovation policies with economic recovery goals. US/EU nano policies have been serving as a global model to various countries, including Korea. So the authors initially seek to understand US/EU national innovation policy interconnections, and then find the role of nanotechnology development within. To strengthen national policy coherence, nanotechnology development strategies are under evolution as an innovation catalyst for promoting commercialization. To strategically support nano commercialization, EHS (Environmental, Health, Safety) and informatics are invested as priority fields to strengthen social acceptance and sustainability of nano enabled products. The current study explores US/EU national innovation policies including nano commercialization, EHS, and Informatics. Then obtained results are utilized to analyze weaknesses of Korean innovation systems of connecting creative economy and nanotechnology development policies. Then ongoing improvements are summarized focusing on EHS and informatics, which are currently prominent issues in international nanotechnology development.

In an automotive plant, an automated storage and retrieval system (ASRS) synchronizes material handling flows from a part production line to an auto-assembly line. The part production line transfers parts on small-/large-sized pallets. The products on pallets are temporarily stored on the ASRS, and the ASRS retrieves the products upon request from the auto-assembly line. Each ASRS aisle is equipped with narrow-/wide-width racks for two pallet sizes. An ASRS aisle with narrow-/wide-width racks improves both storage space utilization and crane utilization while requiring delicate ASRS aisle design, i.e., the locations of the narrow-/wide-width racks in an ASRS aisle, and proper operation policies affect the ASRS performance over demand fluctuations. We focus on operation policies involving a common storage zone using wide-width racks for two pallet sizes and a storage-retrieval job-change for a crane based on assembly-line batch size. We model a discrete-event simulation model and conduct extensive experiments to evaluate operation policies. The simulation results address the best ASRS aisle design and suggest the most effective operation policies for the aisle design.

Total fertility rate in South Korea is the lowest in the world. A fertility rate below replacement fertility level will result in serious social problems in the long term. Therefore, it is worthwhile to study a general understanding about the low fertility rate phenomenon and to investigate the effectiveness of fertility policies in order to ameliorate the resulting social problems due to the low fertility rate. This research was a descriptive examination into the low fertility rate phenomenon and an investigation of the needs for fertility potties and their effectiveness. The study subjects were consisted of 769 unmarried people aged from 18 to 40 years old. Data were collected from June to August 2004 and were analyzed by frequencies, mean, and standard deviation. The following results were revealed. First, unmarried people in general had positive perspectives about getting marriaged, giving birth, and being a parent. In addition, the primary cause of low fertility rate was economical difficulties for raising a child. Third, unmarried people thought that the low fertility rate phenomenon resoled in both positive and negative changes in a society. Fourth, policies for economical supports for raising children, establishing social atmosphere for gender equality, and trustful public educational systems were the political alternatives that people really wanted for having a child in the future. Effective alternatives for policies and strategies to address the low fertility rate problems are suggested in the discussion section.

Railroad is considered as an eco-friendly transportation mode because it emits lower greenhouse gases and air pollutants and consumes less energy compared to trucking. To promote rail freight, many countries have implemented various policies, while South Korea has implemented few substantial policies. This study aims to compare and analyze rail freight policies of various countries in order to suggest policy implications to South Korea. We analyze relevant policies of 9 countries; these are classified into 5 categories, and we provide policy implications for facilitating rail freight infrastructure and equipments, grants for the transportation cost using freight rail, and road freight restriction policy.

Recently junior colleges in Korea have been working to meet changes in industrial and educational surroundings by establishing new departments, integrating and abolishing existing ones, or adjusting departmental quotas. These endeavors need to be based on an analysis of industrial policies, both national and international, and of the industrial trend of the region in which the particular college is located. They also need to take into consideration change in educational policies and the direction of the college's specialization. This study aims to provide some foundation materials for these endeavors. As a result, it has considered changes in industrial and educational surroundings and analyzed the whole spectrum of departments existing at Korean junior colleges, with a focus on business-related ones. In the course it has taken a look at the division system, presently a hot issue regarding the restructuring of the colleges. To summarize, each college offers departments, having taken into consideration its regional, industrial, and educational environments. The result of this study may be utilized by colleges when they establish new departments, integrate and abolish existing ones, and adjust departmental quotas. When they utilize the result, the colleges are advised to consider changes in the structure of industries and manpower, those in educational policies, and the direction of their specialization.

Privacy enforcement has been one of the most important problems in IT area. Privacy protection can be achieved by enforcing privacy policies within an organization's data processing systems. Traditional security models are more or less inappropriate for enforcing basic privacy requirements, such as privacy binding. This paper proposes an extended role-based access control (RBAC) model for enforcing privacy policies within an organization. For providing privacy protection and context based access control, this model combines RBAC, Domain-Type Enforcement, and privacy policies Privacy policies are to assign privacy levels to user roles according to their tasks and to assign data privacy levels to data according to consented consumer privacy preferences recorded as data usage policies. For application of this model, small hospital model is considered.

A CDMA-based cellular mobile telecommunication system has already been developed and is expected to provide more stable mobile communication services for much more users than traditional analog mobile systems. As a natural course of development, the CDMA mobile system is expected to provide ISDN services in the near future. In this paper, we analyze several traffic control policies for the voice-data integrated traffic in the cellular CDMA system. We first select four admission control policies which take differences in traffic and QOS characteristics between voice and data into account, and then develop modelling and analysis techniques, which can be used directly to analyze the chosen control policies. Our approach is based on so-called threshold model. Numerical computation results obtained under the typical traffic situation are also given. Through these computation results we could tentatively conclude that the cutoff priority policy, which can provide the priority for handoff voice cells while effectively utilizing unused channels, seems to be most effective among the four policies.

Service areas in the urban transit need to construct the intelligent integrated surveillance system, because they are the public places that many people get together at one time. In past, analogue, closed-circuit televisions and analogue video recorders are used to construct the surveillance system. Now, a lot parts of the analogue systems that depend on the images have been changed to the complicated system, which consists of sensors and images and also, to be digitalized. In past, the surveillance system was used as an inspection devices to examine the spots after happening some events. But, with a high level of the computer and communication technologies, it is possible that the digitalized data leads the intelligence systems to prevent some accidents by using the various analysis techniques. And the data could be used to decide surveillance policies and provide some information on the safety and management policies as well as surveillance policies. In this paper, we define the intelligent surveillance system and suggest the major functions of the system. Also, we suggest the fundamental functions that every part should get and describe the way to develop the system.
