  • The incestuous assault tends to remain a family secret and not easily be disclosed. Mothers of the victims are usually regarded as the responsible person holding the key to decide whether it should be disclosed or not. Sometimes, therefore, they are blamed with the charge of connivance. The purpose of this study was to explore the essence of mothers' experience of disclosing and to understand the subjective meaning given to this experience. Seven mothers of the female victims of incestuous assault were recruited and interviewed. The collected data was analyzed by hermeneutic phenomenological method. The essential theme of the mothers' disclosing experiences could be summarized as "overcoming pain by going through pain". This major theme contained three sub-themes: "wanting to vent the deepest tormenting pain", "getting hurt again by disregard and indifference from others", "attempting to tear open the festering wound and to feel recovered". Mothers experienced the disclosing process as revisiting the hidden wound to find the meaning of the incident and to cultivate the necessary skill and power to overcome the pain. Especially, mother's disclosing process was characterized by constant restructuring of past trauma through mother's will and knowledge, acknowledging the unmodifiable past, interpreting other people's responses, and, finally, constantly interacting with sociocultural context. The study result stressed the importance of considering the whole array of difficulties and meanings experienced by mothers in the disclosing process. Social work services should provide more professional and sensitive care when mothers try to disclose the dark secret of incestuous assault.

  • 21세기의 벽두부터 국내외적으로 활발히 논의되고 있는 나노기술에 대한 정의를 생각해보는 것으로부터 우리가 나아갈 방향을 살펴보고자 한다. 나노기술이란, 원자 하나 하나 혹은 분자단위의 조작을 통해 1~100nm정도의 범위 안에서 근본적으로 새로운 물질이나 구조체를 만들어 내는 기술을 말한다. 즉 앞으로 우리는 경험해 보지 못한 새로운 현상에 대한 이해를 할 수 있어야 하고, 새로운 물질 자체를 다룰 수 있는 방법이 우리가 해야 할 구체적인 일이 될 것이란 말이 된다. 뿐만 아니라 나노기술은 종래의 정보.통신.전자 분야에서 주로 추구하던 마이크로화와 달리 재료, 기계, 전자, 의학, 약학, 에너지, 환경, 화학, 생물학, 농학, 정보, 보안기술 등 과학기술 분야 전반을 위시하여 사회분야가지 새로운 인식과 철학적인 이해가 필요하게 되었다. 21세기를 맞은 인류가 나아갈 방향을 나노세계에 대한 도전으로 보아야 하며, 과학기술의 새로운 틀을 제공할 것 임에 틀림 없다. 그러나, 이와 같은 나노기술의 출발점을 살펴보면 VLSI기술로 통칭할 수 있는 마이크로전자소자 기술이란 점이다. 국내의 VLSI기술은 메모리기술이라고 해도 과언이 아닐 것이다. 문제는 종래의 메모리기술은 대규모 투자와 집중적인 인력양성을 통해서 세계 최고 수준에 도달 할 수 있었다. 그러나 여기까지 오는 동안 사식 우리는 선진국의 뒷꽁무니를 혼신의 힘을 다해 뒤쫓아 온 결과라고 보아도 틀리지 않는다. 즉, 앞선자를 보고 뒤쫓는 사람은 갈방향과 목표가 분명하므로 최선을 다하면 따라 잡을 수 있다. 그런데 나노기술은 앞선 사람이 없다는 점이 큰 차이이다 따라서 뒷껑무니를 쫓아가는 습성을 가지고는 개척해 나갈 수 없다는 점을 깨닫지 않으면 안된다. 그런 점에서 이 시간 나노기술의 국내외 현황을 살펴보고 우리가 어떻게 할 것인가를 생각해 보는데 의미가 있을 것이다.하여 분석한 결과 기존의 제한된 RICH-DP는 실시간 서비스에 대한 처리율이 낮아지며 서비스 시간이 보장되지 못했다. 따라서 실시간 서비스에 대한 새로운 제안된 기법을 제안하고 성능 평가한 결과 기존의 RICH-DP보다 성능이 향상됨을 확인 할 수 있었다.(actual world)에서 가상 관성 세계(possible inertia would)로 변화시켜서, 완수동사의 종결점(ending point)을 현실세계에서 가상의 미래 세계로 움직이는 역할을 한다. 결과적으로, IMP는 완수동사의 닫힌 완료 관점을 현실세계에서는 열린 미완료 관점으로 변환시키되, 가상 관성 세계에서는 그대로 닫힌 관점으로 유지 시키는 효과를 가진다. 한국어와 영어의 관점 변환 구문의 차이는 각 언어의 지속부사구의 어휘 목록의 전제(presupposition)의 차이로 설명된다. 본 논문은 영어의 지속부사구는 논항의 하위간격This paper will describe the application based on this approach developed by the authors in the FLEX EXPRIT IV n$^{\circ}$EP29158 in the Work-package "Knowledge Extraction & Data mining"where the information captured from digital newspapers is extracted and reused in tourist information context.terpolation performance of CNN was relatively better than NN.콩과 자연 콩이 성분 분석에서 차이를 나타내지 않았다는 점, 네 번째. 쥐를 통한 다양섭취 실험에서 아무런 이상 반응이 없었다는 점등의 결과를 기준으로 알레르기에 대한 개별 검사 없이 안전한

  • Startup must be agile and be able to handle extreme changes, survive unpredicted threats, and capitalize on emerging business opportunities. Agile teams continually sense changes for competitive action and marshal the necessary knowledge. While team members share their knowledge, there must be emerging various type of conflicts in teams. This study examines the relationship among the conflict, knowledge sharing and agility in startup context. At the same time, we tested the roles of shard vision both moderating variable between conflict and knowledge sharing, and antecedent for knowledge sharing. Different two types of conflict, task conflict and relationship conflict, knowledge sharing, agility, and different impact of shared vision are identified from literatures and tested. 182 data points were collected from under 5-year old startup's representatives to test these hypotheses. PLS data analysis indicated that the task conflict and shard vision positively effect on knowledge sharing, and then knowledge sharing has statistically significant effect on agility. And the impact of conlict has been weakened by shared vision's moderating effect. Based on the results, we proposed practically several team management skills for startup managers, leaders and stakeholder, and explained theoretical contributions.

  • In this work, the zeolite/diglycidylether of bisphenol A(DGEBA) systems were investigated in terms of the cure kinetics and mechanical interfacial properties of the composites. The 4, 4-diamino diphenyl methane(DDM) was used as a curing agent for epoxy. Two types of zeolite(PZ) were prepared with 15 and 35 wt% KOH treatments(15-BZ and 35-BZ, respectively) for 24 h, and their surface characteristics were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction(XRD). Cure kinetics of the composites were examined in the context of differential scanning calorimetry(DSC), and mechanical interfacial properties were investigated in critical stress intensity factor($K_{IC}$) and critical strain energy release rate($G_{IC}$). In the results of XPS and XRD, sodium ion(Na) of zeolite was exchanged for potassium ion(K), resulting from the treatment of KOH. Also, $Si_{2p}/Al{2p}$ composition ratios of the treated zeolite were increased, which could be attributed to the weakening of Al-O bond in framework. Cure activation energy($E_a$) of 15-BZ composites was decreased, whereas KIC and $G_{IC}$ were increased, compared with those of the pure zeolite/DGEBA composites. It was probably accounted that the acidity of zeolite was increased by surface treatments and the cure reaction between zeolite and epoxy was influenced on the increased acidity of zeolite.

  • This qualitative study explored a middle-aged lesbian's life and her identities by the oral life history approach in feminist epistemology, where the participant is not the object but the subject of knowledge. The participant kept her own perspective that her homosexuality was not intrinsic but constructed. In her life's history, she was a "docile body" accepting socially constructed historical meaning of homosexuality, as well as a "resistant body" protesting against social discrimination and oppression for homosexual population. She overcame an embedded negative recognition of her scaled injured body and her sexuality as "deficient". Finally, she showed an amazing resilience and an indomitable spirit for reconstructing the meaning of her body as "blessed." Beyond the deficient body, as an active agent not the pathologic sexual minority, she could cultivate compassion and empathy for others. From the results, it is important how to place gender and sexuality in the context of social work theory and practice. Sexuality, not sexual orientation, is 'our' collective agenda to address the social problems which were associated with social hierarchy, inequality, and injustice.

  • By localizing the production of core parts and intermediate goods previously imported from Japan, Korean firms have been striving to increase their market share and profit in the final goods market in which Japanese firms are dominating. Korean producers' efforts, however, have often been thwarted by Japanese suppliers' "strategic" behavior. This competitive strategy involves Japanese exporters supplying parts and intermediate goods at very high prices until Korean firms must locally develop them, and then setting the prices far below the previous level so that the profitability of localization is dramatically reduced, or even means a loss for the Korean manufacturer. This paper intends to explain the strategic behavior of Japanese firms through the concepts of strategic interactions and joint economies. Strategic interactions can be aggressive or accommodating depending on whether competitors are dealing with strategic substitutes or complements. Joint economies exist in multi-stage competition when competition in the previous state favorably influences "profits" of the ensuing stage. Competiton between Korean and Japanese firms (a two-stage game involving production and technology rivalries) can be characterized by joint economies and strategic substitutes: joint economies since technological improvement results in more profits in the production stage; and strategic substitutes since an increase in marginal profits of one firm brings about a decrease in marginal profits of the other in a duopolitic production stage. This implies that the flood of "low price" Japense substitutes is an almost "natural" phenomenon in the context of the duopolistic market described in this paper. In the technology competition stage, on the other hand, technology development and technology transfer can be either strategic complements or substitutes. This implies that, in typical comparative static analyses, the effect of changes in exogenous variables cannot be expected a priori. Thus it becomes very difficult to determine the desirability of applying various policy measures such as countervailing duties, R&D subsidies, and creating demand for localized products. For these reasons, it is indeed likely that the measures suggested as means of circumventing the strategic behavior of Japanese firms (and enhancing technological development of Korean firms) may not work.

  • We are generally interested in the analysis, detection and prediction of structural motifs in proteins, in order to infer compatibility of amino acid sequence to structure in proteins of known three-dimensional structure available in the Protein Data Bank. In this context, we are analyzing some of the well-characterized structural motifs in proteins. We have analyzed simple structural motifs, such as, ${\beta}$-turns and ${\gamma}$-turns by evaluating the statistically significant type-dependent amino acid positional preferences in enlarged representative protein datasets and revised the amino acid preferences. In doing so, we identified a number of ‘unexpected’ isolated ${\beta}$-turns with a proline amino acid residue at the (i+2) position. We extended our study to the identification of multiple turns, continuous turns and to peptides that correspond to the combinations of individual ${\beta}$ and ${\gamma}$-turns in proteins and examined the hydrogen-bond interactions likely to stabilize these peptides. This led us to develop a database of structural motifs in proteins (DSMP) that would primarily allow us to make queries based on the various fields in the database for some well-characterized structural motifs, such as, helices, ${\beta}$-strands, turns, ${\beta}$-hairpins, ${\beta}$-${\alpha}$-${\beta}$, ${\psi}$-loops, ${\beta}$-sheets, disulphide bridges. We have recently implemented this information for all entries in the current PDB in a relational database called ODSMP using Oracle9i that is easy to update and maintain and added few additional structural motifs. We have also developed another relational database corresponding to amino acid sequences and their associated secondary structure for representative proteins in the PDB called PSSARD. This database allows flexible queries to be made on the compatibility of amino acid sequences in the PDB to ‘user-defined’ super-secondary structure conformation and vice-versa. Currently, we have extended this database to include nearly 23,000 protein crystal structures available in the PDB. Further, we have analyzed the ‘structural plasticity’ associated with the ${\beta}$-propeller structural motif We have developed a method to automatically detect ${\beta}$-propellers from the PDB codes. We evaluated the accuracy and consistency of predicting ${\beta}$ and ${\gamma}$-turns in proteins using the residue-coupled model. I will discuss results of our work and describe databases and software applications that have been developed.

CHANGING THE ANIMAL WORLD WITH NIR : SMALL STEPS OR GIANT LEAPS\ulcorner

  • The concept of “precision agriculture” or “site-specific farming” is usually confined to the fields of soil science, crop science and agronomy. However, because plants grow in soil, animals eat plants, and humans eat animal products, it could be argued (perhaps with some poetic licence) that the fields of feed quality, animal nutrition and animal production should also be considered in this context. NIR spectroscopy has proved over the last 20 years that it can provide a firm foundation for quality measurement across all of these fields, and with the continuing developments in instrumentation, computer capacity and software, is now a major cog in the wheel of precision agriculture. There have been a few giant leaps and a lot of small steps in the impact of NIR on the animal world. These have not been confined to the amazing advances in hardware and software, although would not have occurred without them. Rapid testing of forages, grains and mixed feeds by NIR for nutritional value to livestock is now commonplace in commercial laboratories world-wide. This would never have been possible without the pioneering work done by the USDA NIR Forage Research Network in the 1980's, following the landmark paper of Norris et al. in 1976. The advent of calibration transfer between instruments, algorithms which utilize huge databases for calibration and prediction, and the ability to directly scan whole grains and fresh forages can also be considered as major steps, if not leaps. More adventurous NIR applications have emerged in animal nutrition, with emphasis on estimating the functional properties of feeds, such as in vivo digestibility, voluntary intake, protein degradability and in vitro assays to simulate starch digestion. The potential to monitor the diets of grazing animals by using faecal NIR spectra is also now being realized. NIR measurements on animal carcasses and even live animals have also been attempted, with varying degrees of success, The use of discriminant analysis in these fields is proving a useful tool. The latest giant leap is likely to be the advent of relatively low-cost, portable and ultra-fast diode array NIR instruments, which can be used “on-site” and also be fitted to forage or grain harvesters. The fodder and livestock industries are no longer satisfied with what we once thought was revolutionary: a 2-3 day laboratory turnaround for fred quality testing. This means that the instrument needs to be taken to the samples rather than vice versa. Considerable research is underway in this area, but the challenge of calibration transfer and maintenance of instrument networks of this type remains. The animal world is currently facing its biggest challenges ever; animal welfare, alleged effects of animal products on human health, environmental and economic issues are difficult enough, but the current calamities of BSE and foot and mouth disease are “the last straw” NIR will not of course solve all these problems, but is already proving useful in some of these areas and will continue to do so.

  • There are two important problems in improving text classification systems based on machine learning approach. The first one, called "selection problem", is how to select a minimum number of informative documents from a given document collection. The second one, called "composition problem", is how to reorganize selected training documents so that they can fit an adopted learning method. The former problem is addressed in "active learning" algorithms, and the latter is discussed in "boosting" algorithms. This paper proposes a new learning method, called AdaBUS, which proactively solves the above problems in the context of Naive Bayes classification systems. The proposed method constructs more accurate classification hypothesis by increasing the valiance in "weak" hypotheses that determine the final classification hypothesis. Consequently, the proposed algorithm yields perturbation effect makes the boosting algorithm work properly. Through the empirical experiment using the Routers-21578 document collection, we show that the AdaBUS algorithm more significantly improves the Naive Bayes-based classification system than other conventional learning methodson system than other conventional learning methods

  • The goal of product line engineering is to support the systematic development of a set of similar software systems by understanding and controlling their common and distinguishing characteristics. The product line engineering is a process that develops reusable core assets and develops a set of software-intensive systems from a common set of core assets in a prescribed way. Currently, many software development technologies are accomplished in context of product line. However, much of the product line engineering research have focused on the reuse of work products relating to the software's architecture, detail design, and code. The product lines fulfill the promise of tailor-made systems built specifically for the needs of particular customers or customer groups. In particular, commonality and variability play central roles in the all product line development processes. These must be treated already during the requirement analysis phase. Requirements in product line engineering are basis of software development just like as traditional system development engineering, and basis of deciding other core assets' property - commonalities and variabilities. However, it is difficult to elicit, analyze and manage correct requirements. Therefore, it is necessary to develop systematic methods which can develop and manage requirement as core asset, which can be stable in anticipative change and can be well adapted to unpredictable change. In this paper, we suggest a method of managing requirements as core asset in product line. Through this method, the reuse of domain requirements can be enhanced. As a result, the cost and time of software development can be reduced and the productivity can be increased.
