이 글은 인공지능과 인간이 함께 사회적 가치를 만들어 가는 작업이 중요하게 대두되는 현재의 시점에서 생활과 연관된 문화와 제도에 대한 패러다임의 전환을 모색해 보는 것을 목적으로 한다. AI와 관련된 현상들이 현대 사회에서 어떻게 작동하는가에 주목하는 접근 방법은 이 연구의 기초를 이룬다. 이에 "AI 현상"을 사회 문화의 일부로 수렴하면서 그 의미를 밝히기 위해 다양한 문헌 자료를 활용, 윤리나 기술평등 같은 가치를 연계시켜 AI의 사회 제도적 면을 짚어 보고자 하였다. 사회의 구성원들이 함께 할 수 있는 AI와 접목된 기술 문화를 추론하는 일도 기능적인 면에서의 기술적 이해 못지않게 중요한 일이다. 따라서 이 연구가 문화적 상상력과 사회적 시스템이 어우러져 만들어내는 새로운 문화, 즉 "인공지능 문화"의 가능성을 제시할 수 있기를 바란다. 그렇기에 이 글은 하나의 시론적인 성격도 더불어 갖는다.

재난관리서비스의 질적 향상을 위해서는 기존의 공급자 중심의 관점에서 벗어나 수요자 중심의 관점으로 패러다임 변화가 필요하다. 재난관리서비스에 있어 수요자는 이재민뿐만 아니라 중앙정부, 지방정부, 응급 구조시스템, 민간자원봉사단체 등 재난현장에 참여하는 모든 주체들을 의미한다. 본 연구에서는 심층면접을 통해 현 재난관리서비스의 문제점을 수요자 관점에서 분석하고 각각의 대상이 인식하는 재난관리서비스 문제점의 원인과 개선방안을 모색하고자 하였다. 분석 결과, 현 재난관리 시스템의 체계성이 결여되어 있었고, 재난관리의 각 주체와 유관기관들 사이에 상호 불신과 이해가 재난현장에서 병존하고 있었다. 재난현장에서는 이재민뿐만 아니라 재난관리자들도 오랜 복구활동으로 인해 안정적인 생활을 박탈당하게 되며, 보상금 배분 등으로 인해 구성원간 갈등이 심화되어 극단적인 경우에는 지역사회의 붕괴를 가져오기도 하였다. 재난으로 인한 이재민들의 삶은 경제적 측면뿐만 아니라 정신적 측면에서도 심각히 훼손되어 지속적인 지원서비스의 제공이 절실히 필요한 실정이다.

Background: There is growing international recognition of the need for improvements to national chemical management systems for hazardous chemicals. The European Union has recently introduced the concept of 'essential uses' as a new approach to the management hazardous chemicals by limiting their uses. Objectives: This paper examines the concept of essential uses in chemical management and how to apply it through a case study of essential use. This approach is distinct from the current chemical management system, but seeks to improve its potential benefits by effectively restricting or gradually decreasing the use of hazardous substances. Methods: The concept of essential uses was introduced by reviewing the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, Cousins's three essentiality categories applied to PFAS, restriction options assessed in the PFAS restriction proposal under REACH, and the California Safer Consumer Products regulations prioritizing 6PPD in motor vehicle tires. Based on these essential uses concepts for PFAS and 6PPD, uses of benzene were classified in accordance with the essential uses approach for products using benzene in South Korea. Results: The essential use concept is able to manage the restriction and authorization of substances of concern through essential uses and non-essential uses and the feasible substitution of uses and substances. Conclusions: If the concept and methodology of essential uses are clearly established, they can be expected to shift the national chemical management paradigm from regulating substances to limiting uses under the existing substance management system.

The initial motivation in colloid science and engineering was driven by the fact that colloids can serve as excellent models to study atomic and molecular behavior at the mesoscale or microscale. The thermal behaviors of actual atoms and molecules are similar to those of colloids at the mesoscale or microscale, with the primary distinction being the slower dynamics of the latter. While atoms and molecules are challenging to observe directly in situ, colloidal motions can be easily monitored in situ using simple and versatile optical microscopic imaging. This foundational approach in colloid research persisted until the 1980s, and began to be extensively implemented in optics and photonics research in the 1990s. This shift in research direction was brought by an interplay of several factors. In 1987, Yablonovitch and John modernized the concept of photonic crystals (initially conceptualized by Lord Rayleigh in 1887). Around this time, mesoscale dielectric colloids, which were predominantly in a suspended state, began to be self-assembled into three-dimensional (3D) crystals. For photonic crystals operating at optical frequencies (visible to near-infrared), mesoscale crystal units are needed. At that time, no manufacturing process could achieve this, except through colloidal self-assembly. This convergence of the thirst for advances in optics and photonics and the interest in the expanding field of colloids led to a significant shift in the research paradigm of colloids. Initially limited to polymers and ceramics, colloidal elements subsequently expanded to include semiconductors, metals, and DNA after the year 2000. As a result, the application of colloids extended beyond dielectric-based photonic crystals to encompass plasmonics, metamaterials, and metasurfaces, shaping the present field of colloidal optics and photonics. In this review we aim to introduce the research trajectory of colloidal optics and photonics over the past three decades; To elucidate the utility of colloids in photonic crystals, plasmonics, and metamaterials; And to present the challenges that must be overcome and potential research prospects for the future.

Personalized media includes user-targeted and user-generated content (UGC) exchanged through social media and interactive applications. The increased consumption of UGC presents challenges and opportunities to multimedia information systems. We work towards modeling a deep structure for content networks. To gain insights, a hybrid practice with Media Framework (MF) is presented for network creation of personalized media, which leverages the authoring methodology with user-generated semantics. The system's vertical integration allows users to audition their personalized media networks in the context of a global system network. A navigation scheme with dynamic GUI shifts the interaction paradigm for content query and sharing. MF adopts a multimodal architecture anticipating emerging use cases and genres. To model diversification of platforms, information processing is robust across multiple technology configurations. Physical and virtual networks are integrated with distributed services and transactions, IoT, and semantic networks representing media content. MF applies spatiotemporal and semantic signal processing to differentiate action responsiveness and information responsiveness. The extension of multimedia information processing into authoring enables generating interactive and impermanent media on computationally enabled devices. The outcome of this integrated approach with presented methodologies demonstrates a paradigmatic shift of the concept of UGC as personalized media network, which is dynamical and evolvable.

Fluorine-18 is considered to be the radionuclide of choice for positron emission tomography (PET). Thus, the development of small molecule-based radiopharmaceuticals for use in diagnostic imaging relies heavily on efficient radiofluorination techniques. Until the early 2000s, diaryliodonium salts and aryliodonium ylides were widely employed as labeling precursors to yield aromatic PET radiotracers with cyclotron-produced [¹⁸F]fluoride ion. Rapid recent progress in the development of efficient borylation methods has led to a paradigm shift in ¹⁸F-labeling methods. In addition, deoxyfluorination has attracted a great deal of interest as an alternative approach to aryl ring activation with ¹⁸F^-. In this review, methods for radiolabel development are discussed with a specific focus on the progress made in the last 5 years. Other interesting ¹⁸F-based protocols are also briefly introduced. New methods for exploiting ¹⁸F^- are expected to increase the number of ¹⁸F-labeling methods, to allow applications in a range of chemical environments.

A paradigm shift is taking place in medicine and dentistry from using synthetic implants and tissue grafts to a tissue engineering approach that uses degradable porous three-dimensional (3D) material hydrogels integrated with cells and bioactive factors to regenerate tissues such as dental bone and other oral tissues. Hydrogels have been established as a biomaterial of choice for many years, as they offer diverse properties that make them ideal in regenerative medicine, including dental applications. Being highly biocompatible and similar to native extracellular matrix, hydrogels have emerged as ideal candidates in the design of 3D scaffolds for tissue regeneration and drug delivery applications. However, precise control over hydrogel properties, such as porosity, pore size, and pore interconnectivity, remains a challenge. Traditional techniques for creating conventional crosslinked polymers have demonstrated limited success in the formation of hydrogels with large pore size, thus limiting cellular infiltration, tissue ingrowth, vascularization, and matrix mineralization (in the case of bone) of tissue-engineered constructs. Emerging technologies have demonstrated the ability to control microarchitectural features in hydrogels such as the creation of large pore size, porosity, and pore interconnectivity, thus allowing the creation of engineered hydrogel scaffolds with a structure and function closely mimicking native tissues. In this review, we explore the various technologies available for the preparation of macroporous scaffolds and their potential applications.

Purpose As web 2.0 has taken root in the Internet environment, people began to create specific values to produce and disseminate contents on their own. In order to emphasize the personalized media attributes, the concept of self media was derived. In this paradigm shift, self media has emerged that succeeded in commercializing themselves in social media. Taking advantage of the influence of self media will have a tremendous positive impact on management activities such as marketing strategy, brand promotion, customer retention, and profit growth. This study examines the factors affecting the loyalty of self media in Korea and China because the studies in the area of selfmedia is not enough. Design/methodology/approach This study analyzed what factors influenced the loyalty of self-media in terms of Korea-China comparison. The research model was proposed on the basis of previous research papers. Content value, interactivity, ease of access, self-congruity, sympathy, and reputation were used as independent variables. Trust and satisfaction are used as mediating variables, nationality as moderator variables, and loyalty to self-media as a dependent variable. Results As a result, it was found that all independent variables directly influence the loyalty of self-media except interactivity, and interactivity indirectly influence loyalty through trust and satisfaction. There was a moderating effect of nationality between satisfaction and loyalty, but was not a moderating effect between trust and loyalty.

In the archival field, the last decade has witnessed much discussion on archives' broad responsibilities for social memory. Considering that the social role of archives has stemmed from postmodern thinking suggests a paradigm shift from viewing archives as static recorded objects to viewing them as dynamic evidence of human memory. The modern archives and archivists are products of nineteenth-century positivism, limiting their function to archiving written documents within stable organizations. The new thoughts on the social role of archives provide a chance to realize that traditional archival practices have preserved only a sliver of organizational memory, thus ignoring fluid records of human activities and memory. Archival description is the primary method for users to access materials in archives. Thus, it can determine how archival materials will be used (or not used). The traditional archival description works as the representation of archival materials and is directly projected from the hierarchy of organizational documents. This paper argues that archivists will need to redefine archival description to be more sensitive to atypical types of archival materials from various cultural contexts. This paper surveys the postmodern approaches to archival concepts in relation to descriptive practices. It also examines some issues related to representing historically marginalized groups in archival description who were previously neglected in traditional archival practices.

This study aims to grasp invisible yet dynamic systemic structure that influences the general procedure of national R＆D investment system in Korea using "system dynamic methods and to suggest policy lever. Various conflicting situations, 'R＆D investment paradoxes' in myopia investment and principal-agent problems etc, arise when the government decides R＆D investment area and makes indispensable choice. Difficulty in the decision can be amplified due to misalignments among decision on adequate amount of R＆D investment ("strategic loop"), R＆D system ("structural loop") and acceptance and realization by R＆D laboratories and theirs researcher ("efficacy loop"). Results of modeling and simulation of korea national R＆D investment system with consideration of three causal loops show the switching pattern dynamically, in which form of technologies shifts from one to another stage like paradigm shift, when the R＆D investment reaches a certain stork. R＆D investment increases are directly not liked to R＆D productivities because of delays and side effects during transition periods between different stages of technology development. Thus, It is necessary to develope strategies in order to enhance efficiency of technological development process by perceiving the switching pattern.
