  • Since the discovery of superconductivity, the unique and mysterious phenomenon has been observed in various metallic material systems. Now days, the superconductivity becomes ubiquitous because almost every metallic material system shows the superconductivity when it is cooled down enough. This ubiquity of the superconductivity is associated with the fermionic nature and itinerancy of electrons in metallic materials. Because fermions are governed by the Pauli's exclusion principle the total energy of fermions is much larger than that of bosons. Therefore, fermionic itinerant electrons are fundamentally instable. Itinerant electrons are able to find "a way" to lead them to their lowest possible energy state through an available bosonization (or pairing) process and Bose-Einstein condensation. Therefore, the lowest possible energy state of itinerant electrons will be a superconducting state, which is "their ultimate destination". This may explain the reason why the superconductivity is ubiquitous.

  • Interaction of a pathogen with its host plant requires both flexibility and rapid shift in gene expression programs in response to environmental cues associated with host cells. Recently, a growing volume of data on the diversity and ubiquity of internal RNA modifications has led to the realization that such modifications are highly dynamic and yet evolutionarily conserved system. This hints at these RNA modifications being an additional regulatory layer for genetic information, culminating in epitranscriptome concept. In plant pathogenic fungi, however, the presence and the biological roles of RNA modifications are largely unknown. Here we delineate types of RNA modifications, and provide examples demonstrating roles of such modifications in biology of filamentous fungi including fungal pathogens. We also discuss the possibility that RNA modification systems in fungal pathogens could be a prospective target for new agrochemicals.

  • Product-service systems (PSS), integrating physical products and services, currently play a crucial role in sustainable economies. In addition to the highly competitive global economy, the emergence of new digital paradigms is supporting the shift toward servitization. Although the great potential of such paradigms is recognized by both practice and research, their implications for PSS are not yet clear. In particular, features of Internet of Things (IoT), such as total connectedness and ubiquity of smart sensors and actuators, provide various new opportunities for PSS. This study explores such opportunities by conducting structured literature review and 13 interviews. We organize the findings in two folds: First, we introduce four degrees of IoT involvement in PSS business models and elaborate the opportunities that they create for different types of PSS. Second, we present the key technologies and approaches that IoT provides concerning PSS lifecycle management.

  • Chloronicotinyl계 살충제인 acetamiprid의 토양중 분해, 흡${\cdot}$탈착양상 및 용탈정도를 토양의 유기물함량과 관련시켜 규명하였다. Acetamiprid의 토양 중 잔류양상은 포장실험에서 권장량 (0.08 kg a.i./10 a) 처리구의 경우 분해반감기가 1.7일, 배량처리구 (0.16 kg a.i./10 a)에서는 3.1일로 나타났으며 실험실 조건에서는 15.5 일이었다. Acetamiprid의 토양중 흡착량은 유기물함량이 높은 토양에서 높았으며 특히 humic acid보다는 fulvic acid를 처리한 토양에서 더 높았다. 탈착실험에서 토양내 유기물을 첨가한 실험구의 총 탈착률이 $48{\sim}61%$로 나타나 유기물 제거토양의 총 탈착률 81%보다 매우 낮게 나타났다. 특히 fulvic acid 첨가구의 총 탈착률은 44%로 나타나 humic acid 첨가구의 총 탈착률 62%보다 낮게 나타났다. 포장실험에서 얻은 분해반감기 실험결과와 흡착실험에서 얻은 결과를 GUS (Groundwater Ubiquity Score)에 대입한 결과 acetamiprid는 토양환경 중에서 non-leacher로 분류될 수 있었으며, 이러한 이론적 결과는 실제 토양 중 acetamiprid 용탈 실험의 결과와 일치하였다. Acetamiprid의 용탈실험 결과 soil column의 표층으로부터 15 cm까지 잔류량의 82%가 존재하였으며 그 이하 30 cm 까지에서도 아주 미량이 검출되었으나 30 cm 이상과 용출수에서는 검출되지 않았다.

  • Objective: The main objective of this study is to propose a user-centered assessment metric for ubiquitous services. Background: As the ubiquitous era took off, the interactions between ubiquitous services and users have come to take an important position. It is essential to conceptualize a new assessment model that considers human-system interaction capability with a user-centered design perspective. Method: The evaluation model for the interactivity of ubiquitous service was approached from the concept of usability and inter-personality of services. As a validation study, suggested assessment metric was utilized to evaluate the u-Home service. Priority weighting of each assessment metric was derived using the quantification type-I analysis. Results: To evaluate interactivity, this study suggested a quantitative metric for user testing performed after classifying the interactivity characteristics to contextualization; ubiquity; user experience; and service capability. Conclusion: This study suggest the metric for the ubiquitous service that are experienced in real life, and introduced the concept of ubiquitous service interactivity. Application: The suggested evaluation metric can be used to evaluate interactivity level of ubiquitous service and identify the potential problem and usability requirements at the early stage of service development.

  • Driven by the growth of the Internet and the increasing ubiquity of embedded computing systems, the embedded system is exploding in terms of it proliferation of products and the number of complex applications. Intelligent dedicated systems and appliances used in interface, monitoring, communications, and control applications increasingly demand the services of a sophisticated, state-of-the-art operating system. In the case of industrial controller, it is required to use a real-time operating system (RTOS) as a good building block to enable Internet connectivity. However, commercial RTOSes are increasingly less desirable due to their lack of standardization and their inability to keep pace with the rapid evolution of technology. In order to overcome these problems, we consider using embedded Linux and embedded web server. Availability of source code, reduced licensing, reliability, open source community support, as well as others, are key reasons for the use of embedded linux by embedded developers. In this paper, we develop embedded linux platform to control the industrial inverter with the Internet connecting feature. The method of web-based management is also proposed by using the embedded web server and Java applet. We show the feasibility of remote management for the commercial inverter controller with the proposed three-tier web-based remote management system.

  • As mobile shopping has been increasing, the competition has been also increasing to satisfy various consumers' needs. Despite such increase in terms of the volume of the consumers who use mobile shopping, there has been very few studies to examine characteristics of mobile shopping malls. The purpose of this empirical study is to investigate the effect of characteristics of mobile shopping malls on consumer loyalty and the interaction effect of the O2O experience on the relationship between the characteristics of mobile shopping malls and consumer loyalty. Using a sample of 276 individuals who have experienced mobile shopping, we found that certain characteristics such as ubiquity, personalization, or convenience have a positive impact on consumer loyalty and a design characteristic solely has an interaction effect on consumer loyalty. As consumer loyalty has a critical factor on mobile shopping mall's profit, examining which factor has a positive effect on consumer loyalty is beneficial for mobile shopping malls. The results of the study have both practical and empirical implications.

  • Information technology has changed the human life as well as the societal and economic paradigm. New office environments have been proposed to cope with emerging changes and to support working performances by reducing costs of office operation and business. Recently, office environments have adopted ubiquitous computing with a focus on collaboration to promote real-time enterprises. They become equipped with various mobile devices and pervasive technologies in wireless networks. This study aims to propose a direction for the adoption of mobile and pervasive computing on the new office environment. We investigate relate works and analyze new office types including mobile offices, telework centers and home offices. Using a customized questionnaire, the current conditions of the office environments and officers' demands were investigated and analyzed. In the end, we propose the direction for a ubiquitous office environment with a focus on two attributes, ubiquity and mobility. This research will be a basis for the development of ubiquitous offices that support the professionalism of works in practices.
