  • In this study, we explored Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) to introduce Blockchain technology in the medical field. It extracted five external variables(Security, Availability, Reliability, Diversity, Economic feasibility) through previous studies. It set the study model for a path to acceptance intention through the information reliance of recognized easiness and recognized usefulness. As results of empirical analysis, H1-1(Security →Perceived Easiness) was rejected. H1-2(Availability→Perceived Easiness), H1-3(Reliabilit→Perceived Easiness), H1-4(Diversity →Perceived Easiness), H1-5(Economic →Perceived Easiness) were adopted. Hypothesis 2 was a relations between Blockchain's characteristics and Perceived usefulness, all the Hypothesis were adopted. Hypothesis 3 and Hypothesis 4 indicated that H3-1(Perceived Easiness →Perceived usefulness) was rejected but H3-2(Perceived Easiness → information reliability), H3-3(Perceived usefulness → information reliability), and H4(information reliability→acceptance intention) were all adopted. It was confirmed that it is important to emphasize the importance of stability to introduce block chain technology to medical centers, but it was necessary to use a design that can increase the easiness from the prospect of users.

  • Virtual currencies have emerged along with new technologies such as block chain, artificial intelligence (AI), and big data. This study examines the benefits of a security-enhanced block chain resulting from individual trading, decentralized from governments, as well as the problems associated with misuse of virtual currencies. Virtual currencies, due to its anonymity, is vulnerable to financial crimes, such as ransom-ware, fraud, drug trafficking, tax evasion and money laundering. Use of virtual currencies can facilitate criminals avoid detection from investigative agencies. Government regulatory policy continues to address these concerns, and the virtual currency exchange has also announced a self-regulation proposal. However, a fundamental solution remains necessary. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the problems regarding abuse of virtual currency and to identify a practical system for transactions involving virtual currencies. However, in order to promote transactions involving virtual currencies and to institutionalize a governance system, multilateral cooperation is required. Although the restricting the use of virtual currencies regarding minors and foreign trade, as well as the introduction of a real-name system are considered promising prospects, many problems remain. Virtual currency is not a simple digital item but a method of redesigning the function of money. Coordinated efforts are needed globally to be able to further activate the positive aspects concerning the use of virtual currencies.

  • In terms of realizing the future e-government such as intelligent government, this paper attempts to provide an earnest and insightful reflection and suggests desirable strategies with regard to the four different crucial elements including electronic voting, electronic contract, resident registration/electronic document management, and real-estate registration as an operating strategy of intelligent government and the fourth industrial revolution regarding. The 4th industrial revolution is aimed at concentrating information or data characterized with sharing, opening, communicating and releasing in cloud computing system, analyzing big data, collecting information, and flourishing people's well-being by information and communications technology with utilizing the smart devices. Therefore, reliability of the pivotal information or data is critical and it is important for the participants being transparently shared, without the data or information being forged. In this respect, introduction or application of block chain technology is essential. This paper will review preceding studies, discuss the aspect of the 4th industrial revolution and intelligent government, then suggest operating strategies in the field of electronic voting, electronic contract, management of resident registration and electronic document and real-estate registration.

  • ABA triblock copolymers of L-lactide and trimethylene carbonate with several different compositions were prepared by sequential ring-opening polymerization in the presence of diethylene glycol. Also chain-extension reactions of the resulting copolymers were carried out using hexamethylene diisocyanate to produce relatively high molecular weight polymers, which could be cast into elastomeric tough films. The polymers with certain L-lactide contents were partially crystalline, exhibiting two-phase morphology. The polymer films showed reversible elastic behavior under tensile tension, providing a novel thermoplastic elastomer possessing desirable properties such as biodegradability and good mechanical properties.

  • Today, many middle-sized shipbuilding companies in Korea are experiencing strong competition from shipbuilding companies in other nations. This competition is particularly affecting small- and middle-sized shipyards, rather than the major shipyards that have their own support systems and development capabilities. The acquisition of techniques that would enable maximization of production efficiency and minimization of the gap between planning and execution would increase the competitiveness of small- and middle-sized Korean shipyards. In this paper, research on a simulation-based support system for ship production management, which can be applied to the shipbuilding processes of middle-sized shipbuilding companies, is presented. The simulation research includes layout optimization, load balancing, work stage operation planning, block logistics, and integrated material management. Each item is integrated into a network system with a value chain that includes all shipbuilding processes.

  • This thesis presents a performance analysis algorithm that estimates erro performance of individual links, at the bit level, in an end-to-end digital connection using the model of 3-statte MarKov chain. The link model proposed the burst error behavior of each individual link. It also presents a method to concateante several individual links and extract a model for end-to-end digital connection. This resulting end-to-end model can be used to calculate performance parameters such as bit error rate(BER) and block error(BLER) for any block size.

  • The free radical polymerization of styrene was initiated with azobis(isobutyronitrile) in the presence of benzene sulfonyl chloride. Analysis of the terminal structures of the obtained polystyrene with $^1H$ NMR spectroscopy revealed the presence of a phenyl sulfonyl group at the ${\alpha}$-end and a chlorine atom at the ${\omega}$-end of each polystyrene chain. The terminal chlorine atom in the polystyrene chains was further confirmed through atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of styrene and methyl acrylate using the obtained polystyrenes as macroinitiators and CuCl/2,2'-bipyridine as the catalyst system. GPC traces of the products obtained in ATRP at different reaction times were clearly shifted to higher molecular weight direction, indicating that nearly all the macroinitiator chains initiated ATRP of the second monomers. In addition, the number-average molecular weights of the polystyrenes increased directly proportional to the monomer conversions, and agreed well with the theoretical ones.

  • Internet Service Providers (ISPs) constantly endeavor to resolve network congestion, in order to provide fast and cheap services to the customers. This study suggests two models based on Markov chain, using three and four access attempts to complete the call. It involves a comparative study of four models to check the relationship between Internet Access sharing traffic, and the possibility of network jamming. The first model is a Markov chain, based on call-by-call attempt, whereas the second is based on two attempts. Models III&IV suggested by the authors are based on the assumption of three and four attempts. The assessment reveals that sometimes by increasing the number of attempts for the same operator, the chances for the customers to complete the call, is also increased due to blocking probabilities. Three and four attempts express the actual relationship between traffic sharing and blocking probability based on Markov using MATLAB tools with initial probability values. The study reflects shouting results compared to I&II models using one and two attempts. The success ratio of the first model is 84.5%, and that of the second is 90.6% to complete the call, whereas models using three and four attempts have 94.95% and 95.12% respectively to complete the call.
