The incorporation of technological advances in the field of clinical orthodontics to increase treatment efficiency has led to the development of customized appliances (Insignia$^{(R)}$), archwires (Suresmile$^{(R)}$), and the production of devices to enhance tooth movement (Acceledent$^{(R)}$). This review presents a comprehensive study of the literature concerning these products, and analyzes the available evidence of their efficiency. To date, one pilot study has evaluated the efficiency of the Insignia$^{(R)}$ system, three retrospective studies have assessed the efficiency of the Suresmile$^{(R)}$ system, and a few Acceledent$^{(R)}$ reports have described its effect on treatment time. Critical appraisal of the reviewed papers revealed that the efficiency of the Insignia$^{(R)}$ system cannot be confirmed based on the available evidence, while the use of Suresmile$^{(R)}$ can reduce overall treatment time in simple cases. The acceleration of tooth movement by Acceledent$^{(R)}$ devices has not yet been confirmed.

본 논문은 유승민(劉承旻) 이인찬(李仁燦)(1990)이 추정한 우리나라 제조업(製造業)의 기술적(技術的) 효율성(效率性)을 토대로 기술적(技術的) 효율성(效率性)의 산업적(産業的) 격차(隔差)를 설명하는 경험적 증거를 구하고 효율성 추정치의 동태적(動態的) 안정성(安定性)을 분석하였다. 분석결과 산업(産業)의 생산규모(生産規模)가 클수록, 생산특화도(生産特化度)가 높을수록, 자본(資本)-노동비율(勞動比率)의 이질성(異質性)이 낮을수록 높은 기술적(技術的) 효율성(效率性)을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 미국(美國) 일본(日本)의 경우에 대한 연구결과와 공통되는 것으로서 기술적(技術的) 효율성(效率性)과 산업조직특성간(産業組織特性間)의 관계가 경제규모나 발전단계의 차이에도 불구하고 가설(假說)의 일반성(一般性)을 지지한다는 점에서 중요한 의미를 지닌다. 기업집중률(企業集中率) 또한 기술적 효율성에 대하여 선형(線型)보다는 이차형(二次型)의 관계를 가지고 있으나 우리나라의 경우 기술적 효율성이 극대화되는 집중률(集中率)은 매우 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 본 논문은 효율성(效率性) 척도간(尺度間)의 선택문제에 대한 경험적 기준을 제시하였는데 부가가치액기준(附加價値額基準)보다는 생산액기준(生産額基準)으로 추정된 기술적(技術的) 효율성(效率性)이 제가설(諸假說)들과 잘 부합되는 결과를 나타내었다. 효율성의 동태적(動態的) 안정성(安定性)에 관한 시론적(試論的) 분석(分析)에 의하면 시간변화에 따른 효율성 추청치의 안정성은 효율성 척도간에 다소의 차이는 있으나 기대한 만큼 높지 않았다. 따라서 기술적 효율성의 동태적(動態的) 불안전요인(不安全要因)에 관한 설명은 연구과제로 남는다.

The present work aimed to study the decolorization kinetics and characteristics of a selected azo dye under the influence of two key operational parameters including hydraulic retention time (HRT) and solid retention time (SRT). The decolorization efficiency and the two important criteria of k and normalized k (k/MLSS) were evaluated in lab-scale membrane sequencing batch reactors (MSBRs) at various HRTs of 48, 24 and 16 h (with constant SRT) and in addition, at various SRTs of infinity, 40 and 10 d (with constant HRT). According to the obtained results, both zero and first-order kinetics were properly fitted the decolorization profiles of the selected azo dye in all of the applied HRTs and SRTs. Increase of both HRT and SRT positively affected the decolorization efficiency. More MLSS concentrations corresponded to the lower HRTs and the higher SRTs resulted in higher decolorization rate constants (k). However, the effect of reducing the HRT was not compensated by increase of the MLSS concentration in order to reach higher decolorization efficiency. In addition, increase of the decolorization efficiency, as a consequence of the higher MLSS concentrations at longer SRTs, was restrained by decrease of the time-limited decolorization capability of biomass (represented by normalized k). Evaluation of both k and normalized k is suggested in order to have a more precise study on the decolorization kinetics and characteristics.

This study is to investigate global logistics strategies of Korean electronics companies. in terms of service parts. According to the survey, Korean electronics companies were pursuing multi-level global logistics network such as global, continental, national, regional and service center echelon for improving the efficiency of service parts global logistics. Especially there was a tendency of developing new continental distribution centers. And the companies were exploiting efficiency through inventory control by multi-level echelon, demand forecasting by the product life cycle and supply and service lead time management. But there were some insufficient factors for the efficiency of global logistics operation at the construction of worldwide real time logistics information system and pursuit of the efficiency on the whole network including subcontractors. For the future competitive advantage of the Korean electronics companies, the following are suggested: 1) the establishment of arranged logistics channel adjusting each company's global strategy, 2) the construction of worldwide real time logistics information system, 3) the reengineering of all logistics procedures such as order processing, shipping, inventory control, etc., 4) the enhancement of the ratio of the supply from the external companies and the internal manufacturing subsidiaries at each continent, 5) and the pursuit of operational internalization of external subcontractors.

In this paper, an efficient texture compression method is proposed for fast rendering, which exploits the spatial correlation among blocks through intra-picture block matching. Texture mapping is widely used to enhance the visual quality of results in real-time rendering applications. For fast texture mapping, it is necessary to identify an effective trade-off between compression efficiency and computational complexity. The conventional compression methods utilized for image processing (e.g., JPEG) provide high compression efficiency while resulting in high complexity. Thus, low complexity methods, such as ETC1, are often used in real-time rendering applications. Although these methods can achieve low complexity, the compression efficiency is still lower than that of JPEG. To solve this problem, we propose a texture compression method by reducing the spatial redundancy between blocks in order to achieve the better compression performance than ETC1 while maintaining complexity that is lower than that of JPEG. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better compression efficiency than ETC1, and the decoding time is significantly reduced compared to JPEG while similar to ETC1.

Time-series forecasting is extensively used in the actual world. Recent research has shown that Transformers with a self-attention mechanism at their core exhibit better performance when dealing with such problems. However, most of the existing Transformer models used for time series prediction use the traditional encoder-decoder architecture, which is complex and leads to low model processing efficiency, thus limiting the ability to mine deep time dependencies by increasing model depth. Secondly, the secondary computational complexity of the self-attention mechanism also increases computational overhead and reduces processing efficiency. To address these issues, the paper designs an efficient multi-layer attention-based time-series forecasting model. This model has the following characteristics: (i) It abandons the traditional encoder-decoder based Transformer architecture and constructs a time series prediction model based on multi-layer attention mechanism, improving the model's ability to mine deep time dependencies. (ii) A cross attention module based on cross attention mechanism was designed to enhance information exchange between historical and predictive sequences. (iii) Applying a recently proposed sparse attention mechanism to our model reduces computational overhead and improves processing efficiency. Experiments on multiple datasets have shown that our model can significantly increase the performance of current advanced Transformer methods in time series forecasting, including LogTrans, Reformer, and Informer.

본 연구는 공공기관 경영 효율성의 시계열적 변화 양상을 살펴보고, 이를 통해 재무적 성과와의 관련성을 검증해보고자 한다. 구체적으로 정부의 경영평가 결과에 따라 상위 그룹과 하위 그룹으로 구분하고, 평가시점 이전 그룹별 경영 효율성이 어떻게 변화하였는지를 살펴보았다. 경영효율성은 공공기관 경영정보 공개시스템의 자료를 이용하여 자료포락분석을 통해 측정하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 경영평가 결과 상위 그룹에 속한 기관의 경영 효율성은 증가하는 방향으로 변화하였으나, 하위 그룹에 속한 기관의 경영 효율성은 감소하는 방향으로 변화하였다. 둘째, 경영평가 결과 상위 그룹에 속한 기관은 하위 기관에 속한 기관에 비해 상대적으로 높은 경영 효율성을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 공기업의 경영 효율성이 경영평가 결과, 즉 재무적 성과와 관련이 있음을 의미한다. 본 연구의 결과는 경영 효율성을 증대시킴으로써 공공기관의 재무적 안정성을 확보하고자 했던 정부의 개혁 전략이 유효하게 작용할 수 있음을 시사한다.
