Background: Rabbit breeding with high performance imported ones would be of benefit for genetic diversity and improvement of performance in domestic rabbit breeds. The rearing of more productive rabbit breeds could be pathway to improve the productivity and reduce the production cost. Maternal nutritional status exert a great influence on reproductive functions of does, which may expand from conception, through gestation and parturition and development of kits to puberty. Methods: Four breeds of rabbit were evaluated for their parturition, weaning and pubertal differences among the rabbit population in Ibadan, Nigeria. The breed consist of Fauve De Bourgogne (FDB), Chinchilla (CHA), British Spot (BS) and New Zealand White (NZW) rabbits. A total of 60 bucks and 360 does consisting of 15 bucks and 90 does per breed were mated in 6 mating cycles, three each of natural mating and artificial insemination. All does were synchronized for estrus with 20 IU pregnant mare serum gonadotropin 48 h prior to mating. The does after parturition were assessed for milk yield (g) and kit survival rate (%) till weaning, weight changes of kits from birth to puberty. At puberty, the pubertal age (days) and weight (g) of the offspring were assessed. Result: Results obtained reveals that British Spot doe had highest milk yield among the breeds which significantly increased growth of kit and weight at weaning in British Spot rabbits. Survival rates of Chinchilla kits were significantly (p < 0.05) higher than Fauve de Bourgogne, British Spot and New Zealand White kits. Puberty attainment of the rabbits indicates that British spot does and Fauve de Bourgogne bucks are early maturing. Conclusion: Chinchilla shows high kit survivability and British spot has highest milk yield among the four breeds of rabbit.

Gordon & Loeb[1] suggested that the optimal level of investment decision of an enterprise is the point that the marginal benefit(MB) of information security investment is equal to the marginal cost(MC). However, many companies suffering from information security incidents are not aware of the fact that they are experiencing information security accidents and can not measure how much they are affected. In this paper, I propose a model of information security investment decision making under the incomplete information situation by modifying the Gordon & Loeb[1] model and compare the differences in investment level. Under the incomplete information situation the expected return from the information security investment tends to be lower than that of actual information security investment, and the level of investment is also less. This shows that if a third party such as the government gives accurate information such as the rate of incidents of information security accidents and the amount of damages, companies can expand their investment in information security.

Background : One-quarter of Koreans are either students or school employeeS. Therefore, school health programs for them have high levels of cost-benefit. School health programs, though, are focused on services such as vaccination and physical examination according to administrational regulations without systemic planning. Futhermore, college health programs run autonomously, not under the supervision of the Ministry of Education. It is my intention to analyse the current status of college school health service centers and use the basic data so generated to model how they might operate at an optimal level of efficiency. Methods : I intended to investigate all 29 colleges in Seoul except some specialized colleges such as theological schools in the two-month period of August and September, 1999. I used the telephone interview method to ask questions relating to personal composition, medical equipment in use, annual expenditure and the provision of school health services. School health services were composed of three items; health servies, health education and a healthy school environment. Results : 27 college health service centers were surveyed. The median number of medical personal in each center was 2, the range was 1-31. 7 centers(25.9%) have only nurses with no doctors. Annual expenditures of 11 centers(50.1%) was less than 10 million won, 19 center(70.4%) were maintained by support from their college. Thirteen centers(48.1%) provided doctor's examinations, 6 centers(22.2%) provided dental care services, laboratory services were provided by seven centers(25.9%). Some 81.5% of the centers had vaccination programs and 44.5% had health education programs. There was no school environment program except insecticide provisions. College health service centers with school doctors differed from centers without school doctors in terms of medical equipment range, annual expenditures and annual case loads. Conclusion : The structure and function of college health service centers in Seoul are diverse. However, no center has a well-organized school health plan.

The paradigm of mobile game contents move from 2D to 3D due to the development of the recent mobile technology and the change of the market environment. Therefore the game manufacturers are concerned about them but the game is developed in the 3D solution manufacturers which have high technology and some major CP and the game is served through the mobile telecommunication companies. Almost of the small CP in Korea ·also judge the mobile 3D game as a next source of benefit so they prepare the development of the mobile 3D game in the future value in market and the industry survival strategy but the game has defects. They take more developing hours and cost than the 2D game and the lack of manpower for the development and the information. Therefore, in this study, we researched the manufacturing environment being the optimization of mobile environment and developing process of 3D game in order to grope for overcoming different these circumstances.

Tooth transposition is the phenomenon in which two teeth in the dental arch are exchanged. The tooth most frequently involved in transposition is the permanent maxillary canine, especially with the first premolar. The etiology of transposition is still an enigma. Interchange of tooth germs, migration during eruption, genetic factor, local pathologic factors may be suggested as possible etiologic factors. There are three main options for treatment, which are the extraction of one of the transposed teeth, the alignment in the transposed position, the orthodontic movement of the teeth to their correct positions. If complete transposition occurred especially in mandible, alignment of teeth in the transposed position followed by occlusal reduction and esthetic restoration is usually recommended. The presented two-case report will describe the maxillary canine to the first premolar and to lateral incisor transposition with associated peg lateralis and retained primary canines. Although alignment the transposed teeth in original position is ideal treatment, it companies many complication as root resorption, alveolar bone destruction, gingival deheisence, etc. Therefore the treatment procedures in these case was relative cost-benefit effective method to both clinician and patients.

This study is to develop the model on the joint employment system of occupational health nurse practitioners for medium or small sized enterprises in Korea based on the comparison opinions between employers and occupational health nurses (OHN). The data were collected by questionnaires from Oct. to Nov. in 1997. The number of subjects was 210 OHNs and 176 employers, response rate was 47.1% for OHNs and 23.2% for employers. The SAS PC program was used for the descriptive statistics. The results were as follow: 1. More than three years career was preferred for qualification of OHN by employers and OHNs. OHNs preferred that all instruments and materials should be equipped in each industry, but employers preferred that they should be equipped by OHN. 2. For the limit number of industries and employees per one OHN, employers preferred average 2.25 industries and 307 employees, OHNs preferred average 3.0 industries and 448 employees. Both of them preferred two times visit per week for all day long. 3. OHNs wanted that the local office of Ministry of Labor could act as mediator, but employers preferred direct contact individually. For the average wage, employers preferred 887,000 won per month, but OHNs preferred 1,960,000 won per month. 4. OHNs preferred the Korean Association of Occupational Health Nurse as the recruit agency. Finally, employers and OHNs have the opinions that they can choose this system depending on the condition. There is in need of development of effective strategy for this new system such as manpower development, cost-benefit analysis, establishment of occupational health service standard, advertisement for employers, and government supported project.

It is a fundamental element of the nuclear power plant operation to assess exactly the occupational radiation exposure. And, according to recently published ICRP 60 recommendation, it is needed to reduce individual radiaton exposure limit further. In this paper, an optimization techique was suggested for selection of alternatives for reducing occupational radiation exposure, and used in reviewing alternatives given by a plant utility. After the basic analysis, sensitivity analysis was performed to consider the variabilities of the economic variables. From the result, it was found that an option using steam generator nozzle dam and torquing machine was the best with respect to total benefits, and in case of multi-attribute utility analysis, an option using Co-No seal had the highest utility. Therefore, it was necessary to apply more than one technique togeter in optimization study and to consider qualitative factor, too.
