Economy of Communion (EoC) is an emerging economic principle that recognizes the dilemma of traditional perspectives and turns to human centered values and ideas. Furthermore the EoC encompasses all the principles derives from free market economy, ethical norm and social solidarity. This study aims to understand Economy of Communion concepts and its ripple effects under current Korean economy condition which mainly follows Neo-liberalism. Korean economy needs new paradigm to deal with intensifying economical inequality in Korea these days. By understanding EoC's primary value and studying research cases and Sungsimdang, Seokwangsa one of EoC enterprise cases in Korea, this study suggests new economic paradigm. In response to the needs, two important practices should be manifested through fraternity: 1) mutural equity, and 2) dissemination of giving culture. These are construct the economy of communion, which is defined as unique humanism. This study is also expected to suggest new paradigm that establishes new economy system that can cover current economy system's problems.

'UFO2MF' and 'Korean MetaFont Generator' have been developed to convert UFO codes to the corresponding Metafont codes by using outline editing methods. However, 'UFO2MF' cannot express smooth curves because it use only reference points without using control points. And 'Korean MetaFont Generator' can easily design the curve of characters, and supports Hangul characters, but this system does not support Roman characters. In this paper, we propose a UFO2xMF system, which can convert both Korean and Roman characters from outline text information into Metafont codes. UFO2xMF can apply attribute values which can change the shape of letters during the conversion of Metafont code. It is also a highly compatible system that can convert the characters of various languages not only Korean characters but also Roman and other characters into Metafont codes by applying letters with baseline and centerline of gravity.

Coastal economic activities usually generate externalities to other economic activities. The conflicts between coastal economic activities, especially land fillings and reclamations, and fisheries in coastal waters pose a typical one, which sometimes causes some social conflicts. In this regard, as the contents and requirements for rules and regulations on fisheries compensation may have important implications for solving such problems, important is to review rationales fur the formulas in calculating fisheries compensation. The purpose of this paper is to review the formulas for fisheries compensation from the economic view points, to highlight some problems and to suggest more appropriate formulas. It is found that the current formulas of fisheries compensation are not properly based on economic concepts and valuation techniques. Main problems are related, as followings, to the coefficient(0.8) employed in the formula, to fishermen's own wages and to current values of invested assets such as fishing boats and nets, etc.. First, it is not clear what the coefficient(0, 8) means. In Japan's case, the coefficient was assumed to reflect the opportunity cost of fishermen's own wages, but it was disappeared from the formula after the self-wage came to be included in totaling fishing cost. As our new formula will include the self-wage in fishing cost, the coefficient(0.8) should be excluded. Second, according to our formula, the current value of invested assets is added to total operating compensation, which will overestimate total compensation. Therefore, it is suggested that total present value of the assets to be invested during the business life should be deducted from total operating compensation. Third, as the self-wage will be included in total cost, opportunity cost for finding new jobs should be newly added to the formula. Finally, this paper also conducted a comparative case study considering above-mentioned factors. The case study showed that the current formulas overestimated total fisheries compensation.

This study explores the issues of "eco-friendly consumption" through online media posts, and aims to identify changes in it. Total 6,812 blog posts on Naver, that included the words "eco-friendly consumption" and "eco-friendly lifestyle," published between 2005 and 2020, in five-year intervals, were analyzed. The results illustrated that consumption issues began with the identification of the causes of environmental problems however, "eco-friendly consumption" gradually gained importance, until it developed into preparing standards and alternatives for proper "eco-friendly consumption." In 2020, "eco-friendly consumption" values and ideal consumption practices were expanded into social movements. However, there is relatively little discussion on controlled and modest spending. Therefore, for the future direction of "eco-friendly consumption," it is necessary to thoroughly examine and highlight the agenda of controlled and modest living from a higher perspective.

A practice is classified into the practice as a content and the practice as a method. The former means that the practical nature of mathematical knowledge itself should be a content of mathematics and the latter means that one should teach the mathematical knowledge in such a way as the practical nature is not damaged. The practical nature of mathematics means mathematician's activity as it is actually done. Activities of the mathematician are not only discovering strict proofs or building axiomatic system but informal thinking activities such as generalization, analogy, abstraction, induction etc. In this study, it is found that the most instructive ones for the future users of mathematics are such practice as content. For the practice as a method, students might learn, by becoming apprentice mathematicians, to do what master mathematicians do in their everyday practice. Classrooms are cultural milieux and microsoms of mathematical culture in which there are sets of beliefs and values that are perpetuated by the day-to-day practices and rituals of the cultures. Therefore, the students' sense of ‘what mathematics is really about’ is shaped by the culture of school mathematics. In turn, the sense of what mathematics is really all about determines how the students use the mathematics they have learned. In this sense, the practice on which classroom instruction might be modelled is that of mathematicians at work. To learn mathematics is to enter into an ongoing conversation conducted between practitioners who share common language. So students should experience mathematics in a way similar to the way mathematicians live it. It implies a view of mathematics classrooms as a places in which classroom activity is directed not simply toward the acquisition of the content of mathematics in the form of concepts and procedures but rather toward the individual and collaborative practice of mathematical thinking.

This study criticizes the neoliberal dominance in social web popular culture from a feminist perspective. A key question is to identify the nature of the social web popular culture-is it the repercussion or recapturing of feminism in relation to the social context of the prevalence of popular cultural practices of neoliberalism and how to challenge against neoliberal ideology with the critical positioning of feminism? In dealing with these questions, four celebrities' twitter discourses are analysed. The emphasis of smartness in digital mediascape, neoliberal imperative to be competitive, autonomous, positive and affirmative, and desire and fantasy brought by postfeminist lifestyle industries are embedded in the present popular culture. The critical account of neoliberal postfeminism suggests the necessity of an critical feminism which brings about alternative values to the current neoliberal demand for the active subject and consumer freedom of choice as the standard of ideal women.

Reconstruction of implicit surfaces from scattered point data sets have been developed in various engineering and scientific studies. In this paper, we represent a method to construct functions of 2D point data using multi-scale kernels and show it can be applied to graphics applications needed to access data in real-time. Our approach is similar to previous work in that a set of coefficients of the functions are calculated and stored in the preprocessing stage and function values at arbitrary positions are evaluated for real-time applications, however, it is different from others in that users can choose detail levels freely in real-time processing stage. The reason why the functions implicitly supports multi-resolution results from the mathematical properties of multi-scale kernels, and proposed method can be expanded to represent multi-resolution functions of n-dimensional data.

As Internet of Things devices become pervasive, services improve to better assess the context and to alert other users to deal with emergencies. Such services use Internet of Things devices to detect the context around the user and promptly notify public institutions, hospitals or other parental users in emergencies. Most of these systems analyze an event when the value of the device is unchanged for a period of time or if it detects an abnormal value. However, just monitoring sensor values makes it difficult to accurately understand the context surrounding a user. Also if the device is inactive, it can not identify the context or provide services again. However, understanding the user requirements, services provided through other devices, information sent to other users lets, appropriate actions be taken. This paper, proposes a device search method and system based on a context-aware model that includes user demands. The proposed system analyzes the user's context and demands by using data collected from the internet of things devices. If user devices are inactive, they can recognize other devices by searching for other devices and providing services to users again. Through the proposed method, the user-centric services are provided. This method also analyzes and responds to requirements in various emergencies.

The importance of evaluation of farming performance has been increasing with the progress of farm size and capitalization, and with the introduction of the concept of the 6th industry to agriculture. In this research, ROIC(Return on Invested Capital) tree technique was examined as a new method for analyzing operations performance of supply chain for farm produce. Current practices of production and distribution of blueberry, model crop, were investigated and ROIC tree for blueberry has been set up from the survey of the supply chain. Then, it was simulated with real values collected from the participants in the supply chain and the previous studies using a spreadsheet program. The resulting ROIC value was compared with those of other industries and the conventional performance analysis method. Features of the evaluation technique were identified and it was proposed how to apply it to agricultural field in the future.

The citizens seek to maximize convenience, pleasantness and safety when they use urban facilities. However, existing practices of urban neighborhood parks have applied not qualitative standards such as adequacy, efficiency, accessibility, equity, or socioeconomic issues but very limited quantitative standards such as area per person. Therefore it is not rare that citizens have lost their accessibility to near-by neighborhood parks. And park regulations based on the distance of lien are supposed to be uniformally accomplished regardless of the consideration about users or geographical special situations. Futhermore, it has been found that some urban neighborhood parks don't reach to the standards given by the regulations. This study tries to accomplished several purposes. The first purpose is to extract the boundary of real user-accessible zones derived from the city survey. Comparing with boundary of real user-accessible zones, the second one is to propose the most efficient measurement indices among many accessibility measurement index. Based upon the above arguments, the last one is to review the propriety of the access distances(e.g., semidiameter) of an urban neighborhood park in a law. The measurement indices of accessibility examined in this study are walking distance, walking time and walking difficulty. The comparison of visual discrimination, the comparison of area and the comparison of differences of maximum distance showed similar results. Each index can also be compared in the size of area and differences of maximum distance. Walking difficulty with the turning showed the best measurement values among the measurement indices. This indicates that walking difficulty with crossing and/or turning may be another important indices in measuring accessibility, while other existing studues have mainly dealt with walking time and distance as accessibility indices. The results of this study also supported that the existing regulations related to park allocation(e.g., access diameter) are close to the findings of this study.
