This study raised the necessity of developing performance indicators for measuring the management efficiency and effectiveness of school food service, and as a means of helping its implementation, a balanced score card (BSC) approach developed by Norton and Kaplan was adopted. This study established BSC in seven phases through literature: Phase 1 Defining a school food service and the scope of working activities, Phase 2 Establishing the vision of a school food service, Phase 3 Setting strategic goals, Phase 4 Identifying critical success factors (CSFs), Phase 5 Developing Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), Phase 6 Extracting cause and effect relationship, and Phase 7 Completing a preliminary BSC. The preliminary BSC was fumed into a survey, which was administered to food service related people working at the Office of Education and School Food Service including 16 offices,209 dietitians, 48 school administrators both from self-operated and contract-managed, and 9 experts in areas related to school food service. They were asked questions about strategies from 4 different perspectives,12 CSFs, 39 KPls, and the cause and effect relationships among them. As a result, among the CSFs based on 4 different perspectives, all factors other than ' zero sum on profit/loss ' from the financial perspective turned out to be valid. In terms of KPIs, manufacturing cost percentages, casualty loss count/reduction rates, school foodervice participation rates, and sales goal achievement rates were found to be valid from the financial perspective, while student satisfaction index, faculty satisfaction index, leftover ratio, nutrition educational performance count, index of evaluating nutrition education, customer claim count/reduction rate, handling customer claim count/reduction rate, and parent satisfaction index were found to be valid from the customers' perspective. Besides, nutritional requirement sufficient ratio, nutritional management score, food poisoning outbreak count, employee safety accident count, sanitary inspection assessment index, meals per labor hour (productivity index), computerization ratio, operational management index, and purchase management assessment index were also found to be valid from the perspective of internal business processes. From the perspective of innovation and learning, employee turnover ratio/rate of absenteeism, annual education and training count, employee satisfaction index, human resource management assessment index, annual menu-related customer feedback, food service information index for employees and parents/schools were also found to be valid. The significance of this study is to present indices for measuring overall performance of school lunch food service operations without putting any limitation on types of school food service management, and to help correctly assess the contribution of the current types of school food service management to schools and students.

본 논문에서는 배출권거래제도 도입 초기에 거래비용의 존재가 시장의 가격과 거래량에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 그 영향의 크기가 시장의 제도적 여건에 따라 어떻게 상이한지를 분석하였다. 특히 초기 시장의 상황을 시뮬레이션 하기 위한 방법론으로서, 시장의 초기 상황을 고려한 몇 가지 행태적 가정에 입각하여 거래상대방을 찾아서 거래가 발생하는 축차적 과정을 모형화한 거래 규칙을 구축하였다. 또한 잘 형성되어 있는 시장을 대표하는 중앙집중적인 거래소의 경쟁균형 값과 비교하였다. 모의실험 결괴는 다음과 같다. 거래비용의 추가는 거래비용이 없는 경우에 비하여 거래량의 감소를 가져왔다. 또한 거래비용의 추가는 거래비용이 높을수록, 그리고 거래비용에 존재하는 규모의 경제의 정도가 높을수록 거래량의 급격한 감소를 가져왔다. 규모의 경제가 존재할 경우 거래비용이 일정 수준을 넘으면 거래가 아예 발생하지 않는 명백한 경향이 존재함을 보여주었다. 규모의 경제의 크기가 클 것으로 예상되는 배출권시장 도입 초기에는 배출권거래가 잘 작동하지 않을 개연성이 있다. 따라서 거래량의 크기를 증대시키고 단위당 거래비용을 낮추어주는 인위적인 조치들이 필요하다. 이러한 조건을 만족시키는 대안 중의 하나가 중앙집중화된 거래소를 설립하고 거래량을 증가시키기 위한 여러 조치를 취하는 것이다.

A classification of snowfall type based on development mechanism is proposed using previous snowfall studies, operational experiences, etc. Five types are proposed: snowfall caused by 1) airmass transformation (AT type), 2) terrain effects in a situation of expanding Siberian High (TE type), 3) precipitation systems associated with extratropical cyclones (EC type), 4) indirect effects of extratropical cyclones passing over the sea to the south of the Korean peninsula (ECS type), and 5) combined effects of TE and ECS types (COM type). Snowfall events during 1981-2001 are classified according to the 5 types mentioned above. For this, 118 events, with at least one station with daily snowfall depth greater than 20 cm, are selected. For the classification, synoptic weather charts, satellite images, and precipitation data are used. For TE and COM types, local sea-level pressure chart is also used to confirm the presence of condition for TE type (this is done for events in 1990 and thereafter). The classification shows that 109 out of 118 events can be classified as one of the 5 types. In the remaining 8 events, heavy snowfall occurred only in Ullung Island. Its occurrence may be due to one or more of the following mechanism: airmass transformation, mesoscale cyclones and/or mesoscale convergence over the East Sea, etc. Each type shows different characteristics in location of snowfall and composition of precipitation (i.e., dry snow, rain, and mixed precipitation). The AT-type snowfall occurs mostly in the west coast, Jeju and Ullung Islands whereas the TE-type snowfall occurs in the East coast especially over the Young Dong area. The ECS-type snowfall occurs mostly over the southern part of the peninsula and some east cost area (sometimes, whole south Korea depending on the location of cyclones). The EC- and COM-type snowfalls occur in wider area, often whole south Korea. Precipitation composition also varies with the type. The AT-type has a snow ratio (SR) higher than the mean value. The TE- and EC-type have SR similar to the mean. The ECS- and COM-type have SR values smaller than the mean. Generally the SR values at high latitude and mountainous areas are higher than those at the other areas. The SR value informs the characteristics of the precipitation composition. An SR value larger than 10 means that all precipitation is composed of snow whereas a zero SR value means that all precipitation is composed of rain.

제강슬래그를 이용한 광물탄산화 공정 이후 발생하는 잔사슬래그의 비소(As) 제거 기작 규명을 위해, 전로제강슬래그(blast oxygen furnace slag: BOF)에 직접 및 간접탄산화 공정이 각각 적용된 두 종류의 잔사슬래그를 대상으로 실험실 규모의 실험을 실시하였다. 광물탄산화 공정은 잔사슬래그의 화학적-광물학적 조성변화, 용출수의 pH 저감, 표면 미세공극 형성 등 기존 제강슬래그의 특성을 변화시키는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 다양한 pH 범위의 As 인공오염수(초기농도: 203.6 mg/L)에 잔사슬래그를 반응시킨 배치실험에서, RDBOF (직접탄산화 후 BOF)는 초기 pH가 감소할수록 As 제거효율이 증가하는 경향을 보이며 초기 pH가 1인 환경에서 99.3%의 As 제거효율을 나타냈다. 이는 RDBOF 표면을 피복하던 CaCO₃가 낮은 초기 pH 환경에서 용해되어 RDBOF 표면에서 철산화물의 노출 면적을 증가시킴으로 인해, 철산화물의 As 음이온 표면 흡착을 촉진한 것에서 기인한 것으로 판단되었다. 반면 RIBOF (간접탄산화 후 BOF)는 초기 pH가 높은 환경일수록 As 제거효율이 증가하며 초기 pH 10의 As 오염수에서 70.0%의 가장 높은 As 제거효율을 보였다. RIBOF의 영전하점(pH 4.5)을 고려할 때, 초기 pH 4-10 조건에서 음전하를 띠는 RIBOF의 표면에 As 음이온의 전기적 인력에 의한 표면 흡착은 발생하기 어려울 것으로 예상되었다. 다만 수용액 내 용존하는 Ca²⁺, Mn²⁺, Fe²⁺와 같은 2가 양이온들에 의해 As 음이온이 RIBOF 내 철산화물에 간접적으로 고정되는 양이온 가교효과(cation bridge effect)가 발생하였고, 초기 pH가 높은 환경일수록 슬래그 표면이 더 강한 음전하를 띠며 양이온 가교효과가 가속화되어, 결과적으로 많은 As가 흡착된 것으로 판단되었다. 하지만 강알칼리 (pH 10-11 이상) 조건에서는 RIBOF 표면에 생성된 칼슘침전물이 철산화물을 피복함으로써 철산화물에 의한 As 음이온 표면 흡착을 저해하는 현상이 발생하였다. 또한 배치실험 이후 회수된 잔사슬래그에 TCLP 시험을 수행한 결과, RDBOF와 RIBOF 모두 2% 미만의 As 탈착률을 보여 안정적인 형태로 As가 고정되어 있음이 확인되었다. 본 연구 결과를 통해, 잔사슬래그가 기존에 As 제거제로 활용되던 제강슬래그의 단점인 수계의 급격한 pH 상승을 억제하는 동시에, 높은 As 제거효율 및 안정성을 나타내는 저비용-친환경의 As 제거제로서의 활용 가능성을 입증하였다.

The Census Bureau of the Department of Commerce announced in May 2008 that U.S. retail e-commerce sales for 2006 reached $ 107 billion, up from $ 87 billion in 2005 - an increase of 22 percent. From 2001 to 2006, retail e-sales increased at an average annual growth rate of 25.4 percent. The explosive growth of E-Commerce has caused profound changes in marketing channel relationships and structures in many industries. Despite the great potential implications for both academicians and practitioners, there still exists a great deal of uncertainty about the impact of the Internet channel introduction on distribution channel management. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the ownership of the new Internet channel affects the existing channel members and consumers. To explore the above research questions, this study conducts well-controlled mathematical experiments to isolate the impact of the Internet channel by comparing before and after the Internet channel entry. The model consists of a monopolist manufacturer selling its product through a channel system including one independent physical store before the entry of an Internet store. The addition of the Internet store to this channel system results in a mixed channel comprised of two different types of channels. The new Internet store can be launched by the independent physical store such as Bestbuy. In this case, the physical retailer coordinates the two types of stores to maximize the joint profits from the two stores. The Internet store also can be introduced by an independent Internet retailer such as Amazon. In this case, a retail level competition occurs between the two types of stores. Although the manufacturer sells only one product, consumers view each product-outlet pair as a unique offering. Thus, the introduction of the Internet channel provides two product offerings for consumers. The channel structures analyzed in this study are illustrated in Fig.1. It is assumed that the manufacturer plays as a Stackelberg leader maximizing its own profits with the foresight of the independent retailer's optimal responses as typically assumed in previous analytical channel studies. As a Stackelberg follower, the independent physical retailer or independent Internet retailer maximizes its own profits, conditional on the manufacturer's wholesale price. The price competition between two the independent retailers is assumed to be a Bertrand Nash game. For simplicity, the marginal cost is set at zero, as typically assumed in this type of study. In order to explore the research questions above, this study develops a game theoretic model that possesses the following three key characteristics. First, the model explicitly captures the fact that an Internet channel and a physical store exist in two independent dimensions (one in physical space and the other in cyber space). This enables this model to demonstrate that the effect of adding an Internet store is different from that of adding another physical store. Second, the model reflects the fact that consumers are heterogeneous in their preferences for using a physical store and for using an Internet channel. Third, the model captures the vertical strategic interactions between an upstream manufacturer and a downstream retailer, making it possible to analyze the channel structure issues discussed in this paper. Although numerous previous models capture this vertical dimension of marketing channels, none simultaneously incorporates the three characteristics reflected in this model. The analysis results are summarized in Table 1. When the new Internet channel is introduced by the existing physical retailer and the retailer coordinates both types of stores to maximize the joint profits from the both stores, retail prices increase due to a combination of the coordination of the retail prices and the wider market coverage. The quantity sold does not significantly increase despite the wider market coverage, because the excessively high retail prices alleviate the market coverage effect to a degree. Interestingly, the coordinated total retail profits are lower than the combined retail profits of two competing independent retailers. This implies that when a physical retailer opens an Internet channel, the retailers could be better off managing the two channels separately rather than coordinating them, unless they have the foresight of the manufacturer's pricing behavior. It is also found that the introduction of an Internet channel affects the power balance of the channel. The retail competition is strong when an independent Internet store joins a channel with an independent physical retailer. This implies that each retailer in this structure has weak channel power. Due to intense retail competition, the manufacturer uses its channel power to increase its wholesale price to extract more profits from the total channel profit. However, the retailers cannot increase retail prices accordingly because of the intense retail level competition, leading to lower channel power. In this case, consumer welfare increases due to the wider market coverage and lower retail prices caused by the retail competition. The model employed for this study is not designed to capture all the characteristics of the Internet channel. The theoretical model in this study can also be applied for any stores that are not geographically constrained such as TV home shopping or catalog sales via mail. The reasons the model in this study is names as "Internet" are as follows: first, the most representative example of the stores that are not geographically constrained is the Internet. Second, catalog sales usually determine the target markets using the pre-specified mailing lists. In this aspect, the model used in this study is closer to the Internet than catalog sales. However, it would be a desirable future research direction to mathematically and theoretically distinguish the core differences among the stores that are not geographically constrained. The model is simplified by a set of assumptions to obtain mathematical traceability. First, this study assumes the price is the only strategic tool for competition. In the real world, however, various marketing variables can be used for competition. Therefore, a more realistic model can be designed if a model incorporates other various marketing variables such as service levels or operation costs. Second, this study assumes the market with one monopoly manufacturer. Therefore, the results from this study should be carefully interpreted considering this limitation. Future research could extend this limitation by introducing manufacturer level competition. Finally, some of the results are drawn from the assumption that the monopoly manufacturer is the Stackelberg leader. Although this is a standard assumption among game theoretic studies of this kind, we could gain deeper understanding and generalize our findings beyond this assumption if the model is analyzed by different game rules.
