국립공원공단에서는 공원 자연 생태계의 효율적 보전·관리를 위해 2012년부터 생태계 건강성 평가를 실시하였다. 그러나 자연공원법 개정, 정책 변화, 관리 지표 부재에 따라 지표 개선의 필요성을 인식하였다. 특히 기존지표에서는 해양생태계평가 지표 부재, 정책변화와 시대적 요구를 반영하지 못하는 어려움이 있었다. 또한 기존 평가시스템은 멸종위기종, 생태계교란종, 종다양도, 수질 (BOD, DO), 서식지파편화 지표 등으로 생물종 중심의 비중이 높았다. 평가결과는 5등급 체계로 구성되어 각 지표에 대한 즉각적인 변화를 분석하기 어려웠다. 따라서, 평가시스템 개선을 통해 BPI와 서식지복원지표를 추가하였다. 종다양도는 4개 분류군을 대상으로만 평가하였으나, 10개 분류군으로 전체 공원을 평가하였다. 평가 등급은 5개 상태, 5 등급에서 5개 상태, 10 등급으로 세분화하여 픽토그램으로 제시하였다. 평가결과 개선 전과 전체적으로 유사한 경향성을 보였고, 3단계에서 5단계로 확대 되었다. 그러나 월악산국립공원은 개선 전 평가 결과보다 낮고, 주왕산국립공원은 높게 평가되었다. 본 연구는 생태계 건강성 평가 시스템 개선을 통해 국립공원 생태계의 과학적·체계적 관리에 기여하고자 한다.

토양 환경은 그 유한성과 다양한 기능의 가치로 인해 중요한 자원으로 인식되고 있다. 따라서 많은 나라에서 토양의 질과 관련된 인자를 활용한 전략환경영향평가를 수행하고 있다. 하지만 우리나라는 아직까지도 오염도 위주의 제한된 인자만을 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 개발기본계획에 대한 전략환경영향평가에서 토양의 복합적 특성을 고려할 수 있도록 개선하고 이를 보금자리주택 공급계획과 도시관리계획에 시범 적용하였다. 토양을 고려한 전략환경영향평가는 체크리스트 방법을 사용하여 상위계획과의 연계성, 대안 설정 분석, 입지의 타당성을 평가하였다. 평가 결과, 토양 유기물과 토양 침식 항목이 개발기본계획에서 가장 중요하게 고려해야 하는 인자로 도출되었다. 다만, 상기 두 인자에 대한 데이터베이스의 준비, 평가 비용의 증가 등을 예상할 수 있지만, 본 연구에서 개선한 전략환경영향평가 기법은 토양자원 보전에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this research is to develop an information technology (IT) usage level assessment model for service industry. It is necessary to develop an assessment model for service industry's IT usage to improve service productivity. However, it is not easy to develop assessment models due to service industry's diversity. In this paper a generic IT usage assessment model for service industry has been developed and validated through a descriptive approach. Key factors affecting service productivity have been identified and analysed. A pilot test on IT usage level has been performed to investigate the relevance and importance of IT usage indicators (factors). As a result, a set of effective IT usage indicators for service industry have been found. A short-cut model and a full scale model have been proposed for efficient and effective usage. The results of this study can be used for enhancement of service industry productivity through the increase of IT usage level.

Purpose: Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service (HIRA) launched an Acute Myocardial Infarction(AMI) assessment for the Payment For Performance(Quality Incentives) Pilot Project from July 2007. Assessment measures of AMI were composed of five process measures and one outcome measure, and each measure was incorporated into one composite quality score to Pay for Performance. Method: For calculation of composite quality score, we considered weighting for the measures using the Delphi method. The questionnaire was composed of three measure groups, 'Reperfusion rate'(Fibrolytic therapy received within 60 minutes of hospital arrival, Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention within 120 minutes of hospital arrival), 'Medication prescription rate'(Aspirin at arrival, Aspirin prescribed at discharge, Beta-blocker prescribed at discharge) and 'Survival Index'(30-day mortality rate). Result: A panel composed of 18 and completed a questionnaire by allocation of 10 scores to the three above mentioned measure groups. The Delphi was carried out until three rounds of surveys. In conclusion, each measure group was weighted differently and the 10 scores were allocated as 4.5 to 'Reperfusion rate', 2.5 to 'Medication prescription rate', and 3.0 to 'Survival Index'. Conclusion: The results of this study proposed the calculation method for weighting of Acute Myocardial Infarction quality indicators.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) is of great importance to super high-rise buildings. The Shanghai Tower is currently the tallest building in China, and a complete SHM system was simultaneously constructed at the beginning of the construction of the tower. Due to the variety of sensor types and the large number of measurement points in the SHM system, an online automatic structural health assessment method with few computations and no manual intervention is needed. This paper introduces a structural health assessment method for the Shanghai Tower that uses the coefficients of an autoregressive (AR) time series model as structural state indicators. An analysis of collected data indicates that the coefficients of the AR model are affected by environmental factors, and the principal component analysis method is used to remove the influence of environmental factors. Finally, the control chart method is used to track the changes in structural state indicators, and a plan for online automatic structure health state evaluation is proposed. This method is applied to long-term acceleration and inclination data from the Shanghai Tower and successfully identifies the changes in the structural state. Overall, the structural state indicators of the Shanghai Tower are stable, and the structure is in a healthy state.

In this study, we developed novel indicators to assess postoperative pain based on PPG derivative waveform. As the candidate indicator of postoperative pain assessment, the time from the start of beating to the n-th peak($T_n$) and the n-th peak amplitude($A_n$) of the PPG derivative were selected. In order to verify derived indicators, each candidate indicator was derived from the PPG of 78 subjects before and after surgery, and it was confirmed whether significant changes were observed after surgery. Logistic classification was performed with each proposed indicator to calculate the pain classification accuracy, then the classification performance was compared with SPI(Surgical Pleth Index, GE Healthcare, Chicago, US). The results showed that there were significant differences(p < 0.01) in all indicators except for $T_3$ and $A_3$. The coefficient of variation(CV) of every time-related indicators were lower than the CV of SPI(30.43%), however, the CV in amplitude-related parameters were higher than that of SPI. Among the candidate indicators, amplitude of the first peak, $A_1$, showed that highest accuracy in post-operative pain classification, 68.72%, and it is 15.53% higher than SPI.

The tidal flats of Korea today have reduced by 40% in size compared to 1964. To manage this important habitat properly, development of well-organized and nationwide-applicable grading systems is required. There have been several assessment systems proposed previously in Korea, but they are critically flawed in that selected biological indicators are not adequate and grading criteria are obscure and arbitrary. We reviewed the indicators used in these previous evaluation systems (e.g., diversity indices, quantity and quality of benthic macrofauna, halophytes, water birds, etc.) and subsequently proposed new indicators and an improved grading scheme. For the quantitative assessment of macrobenthic community, biomass reflecting production and ecosystem function is recommended over density, which is much less discriminatory among habitats. Of biodiversity indices used, within-, between-habitat and regional biodiversity indices that accurately reflect sampling efforts are suggested. In addition, we proposed to include species rarity, ecosystem engineers, and the ecological quality index ISEP (Inverse function of Shannon-Wiener Evenness Proportion). As for halophytes, their low spatial coverage on benthic habitat suggests that their presence can be used as an ecological indicator of benthic habitat, regardless of their protective status. We stress the need to introduce 1) quantile approach for quantitative indicators (e.g., diversity, biomass, etc.) in relation to grading, 2) presence-absence approach for spatial or aggregate indicators (e.g., boundaries of halophytes and feeding ground of water birds) and 3) benthic habitat mapping that combines all of these indicators.

기존의 OSS의 활용은 운영체제나 DBMS와 같은 시스템 애플리케이션의 사용이 주를 이루었다. 그러나 현재 많은 기업에서 시스템 소프트웨어가 아닌 응용 애플리케이션 중심으로 OSS를 활용하려고 한다. 그러나 OSS를 활용한 응용 애플리케이션 개발을 위해서는 기반이 되는 OSS의 선정이 무엇보다 중요하다. 기존의 OSS 평가 연구의 범위는 전체 OSS 품질을 포함하고 있다. 그러므로 OSS 선정에 대한 평가 연구는 미흡하다. 또한 평가의 결과는 정량적인 측정보다 정성적인 측정에 기반하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 OSS 평가지표들 중 선정을 위한 지표들만을 도출하고 이를 기반으로 프로젝트 특징에 따라 정량적인 평가가 가능한 평가지표를 제안한다. 제안하는 평가지표는 OSS 커뮤니티 내의 정보만을 가지고 평가할 수 있는 초기평가지표와 정량적인 측정이 가능한 상세평가지표로 구분하여 제안한다. 이를 통해 OSS 선정 시 정량적인 점수와 지표를 통해 객관적인 근거를 제공한다.

건축물은 발주자의 분명한 수요에 의한 계약을 시작으로 설계 및 시공 프로세스가 진행된다. 따라서 건축물의 품질평가에 있어 발주자 요구사항의 충족여부가 관건이라 할 수 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 국내 현황에 적합한 설계품질 평가지표를 개발하고자, 설계업무 현황파악을 위한 설문조사 및 영국의 Design Quality Indicator(DQI) 분석을 수행하였다. 설문결과, 발주자 요구사항은 가변성이 크기 때문에 설계변경을 야기하는 주요인으로 분석되었다. 영국의 설계품질 평가지표인 DQI는 발주자 요구사항 도출, 건축물의 최종 품질평가 등, 프로젝트 전과정에서 적용가능한 평가지표라 정의할 수 있다. 현재 영국에서는, DQI의 사용자 및 적용 범위가 점차 확대되어가는 추세이다. 향후, 국내 현황 및 프로젝트 특성을 반영하여 구체적인 설계품질 평가지표가 제시되어야 할 것이다. 나아가, 평가결과의 가장 효과적인 표현방법(Visualization) 및 설계품질 평가기능을 지원하는 도구 개발을 위한 지속적인 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이다.
