Purpose - This study examines the mediating effect of switching costs (economic risk costs and setup costs) on the relationships of country image with product attitude and product attachment. Switching-cost effects for the Korean Wave, which are insufficiently addressed in the literature, were investigated using the country image of Korea as a proxy for the Korean Wave. Moreover, this study examined the economic effects of the Korean Wave and the negative effect of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) deployment on these economic effects. Design/methodology - A total of 302 Chinese consumers were surveyed using a questionnaire. Because this was an exploratory study and was not based on a classical model, the PLS-SEM method was employed to test the stability of the model and its hypotheses. Findings - Switching costs had mediating effects on the relationships of country image with product attitude and product attachment. The switching-cost effects for the Korean Wave were verified. However, neither the economic image nor cultural image of Korea had significant effects on the economic risk costs. Moreover, the economic image of Korea had no significant effect on the set-up costs. Originality/value - This study broadened the understanding of the relationships among country image, switching costs, product attitude, and product attachment and advanced the knowledge of relevant theories. The results contribute theoretically to the literature on switching-cost effects for the Korean Wave. The results confirmed the negative effect of THAAD deployment on the economic effects of the Korean Wave. In the rapidly developing international environment, these research results could serve as theoretical reference guidelines for suppliers when developing marketing strategies.

소노부이는 수중에서 음파를 활용하여 정보 수집을 수행하는 장치로, 엔진 소음이나 다양한 음향 특성을 감지하여 수중 표적을 정확하게 탐지하는 대잠전에 효과적인 탐지체계이다. 다중상태 시스템에서의 기존 소노부이 배치 방식은 고정된 패턴이나 휴리스틱 기반의 규칙에 의존하므로, 예측하기 힘든 수중 표적의 기동으로 인해 소노부이 투하 개수 및 작전 소요 시간 측면에서 효율적인 배치를 보장하지는 못한다. 본 논문에서는 기존 소노부이 배치 방식의 한계를 극복하기 위해, 수중 표적의 이동을 고려한 시뮬레이션 기반의 실험 환경에서 강화학습을 이용한 무인항공기의 소노부이 최적 배치를 제안한다. 제안한 방법은 Unity ML-Agents를 통해 Proximal Policy Optimization(PPO) 알고리즘을 이용하여 가상 작전환경과 실시간 상호작용하며 무인항공기를 학습한다. 소노부이 투하 개수 및 음원 및 수신기 간의 비용을 고려한 보상 함수를 설계하여 효과적인 학습이 가능하게 한다. 동일한 실험 환경에서 강화학습을 적용한 배치 방식과 기존 소노부이 배치 방식을 비교한 결과, 탐지 성공률, 투하된 소노부이 개수, 작전 소요 시간 측면에서 강화학습을 적용한 배치 방식이 가장 우수한 성능을 보였다.

Short-lived pseudonym certificates as vehicle identities could satisfy both security and privacy requirements. However, to remove revoked certificates especially in vehicle communications, pseudonym certificate revocation list (CRL) should be distributed resource-efficiently from a practical deployment point of view and in a timely manner. In this paper, we propose a novel CRL distribution scheme capable of CRL multicast to only activated vehicles registered to the CRL multicast group using the group communication system enabler, namely, the GCSE which is being standardized. The scheme is resource efficient by using CRL distribution paths instead of paging processes to find out multicast vehicle(s) within a certain region. The analyzed results show that the proposed scheme outperforms in terms of paging cost, packets transmission cost, and the processing cost at the respective entities compared to the existing four schemes in the literature.

Value can be defined as function divided by cost. The ultimate goal of VE (Value Engineering) is to simultaneously reduce cost and to enhance function in given projects. In general, there are eight phases (Selection, Investigation, Speculation, Evaluation, Development. Presentation, Implementation, and Audit) to perform VE. This paper presents analysis of important factors for VE in construction fields using QFD (Quality Function Deployment) technique. QFD was introduced in 1972 to help design supertanker in Mitsubish's shipyards in Kob, Japan and formally defined by the American Supplier Institute in 1987 as a system for translating consumer requirements into appropriate company requirements at every stage, from research, through product design and development, to manufacture, distribution, installation, and marketing, sales and services. The objective of this paper is to provide and analyze the trend on the viewpoint of efficient value engineering of field workers. The data are collected by questionnaires. The samples for this study are chosen from 13 companies in Korea during 2 months (2002. 7 ∼ 2002. 8). The results of this study will play an important role not only for the efficient value engineering but also for preparing of life cycle cost analysis.

This study presents a noble scheme for distributed and parallel simulations with optimized agent placement for simulation instances. The traditional parallel simulation has some limitations in that it does not provide sufficient performance even though using multiple resources. The main reason for this discrepancy is that supporting parallelism inevitably requires additional costs in addition to the base simulation cost. We present a comprehensive study of parallel simulation architectures, execution flows, and characteristics. Then, we identify critical challenges for optimizing large simulations for parallel instances. Based on our cost-benefit analysis, we propose a novel approach to overcome the performance constraints of agent-based parallel simulations. We also propose a solution for eliminating the synchronizing cost among local instances. Our method ensures balanced performance through optimal deployment of agents to local instances and an adaptive agent placement scheme according to the simulation load. Additionally, our empirical evaluation reveals that the proposed model achieves better performance than conventional methods under several conditions.

Government agencies have many difficulties for the information system development and operation. One of the difficulties is a budget estimation. Each government agency suggests individually different estimation for the personnel expenses and IT infrastructure adoption costs in the same field of informatization promotions. The other one is the operation costs are increased exponentially in every year[42, 51]. Those difficulties make government agencies can not help adopting SaaS. In fact, most of IT consulting company and government agencies already recognized a variety of SaaS advantages. The most typical SaaS's advantages are cost reduction, Software rapid development and deployment. However, once government agencies decide to adopt SaaS, they can not avoid many problems and difficulties. There is no information in a detailed item in a budget. In those kinds of situation, there is no choice whether government agencies accept SaaS provider's suggesting adoption costs or not. Thus, we provide a sheet of SaaS adoption cost estimation to government agencies. To know the cost factors, this study uses TCO(Total Cost of Ownership)'s criteria. To give a management point, this study uses Gartner's Application development Life Cycle. In this study, the integration check framework which is SaaS adoption cost estimation makes government agencies possible to establish a adequate budget.

The study investigated an area of sustainable structural design that is often overlooked in practical engineering applications. Specifically, a novel method to simultaneously optimise the cost and embodied carbon performance of steel building structures was explored in this paper. To achieve this, a parametric design model was developed to analyse code compliant structural configurations based on project specific constraints and rigorous testing of various steel beam sections, floor construction typologies (precast or composite) and column layouts that could not be performed manually by engineering practitioners. Detailed objective functions were embedded in the model to compute the cost and life cycle carbon emissions of the different material types used in the structure. Results from a comparative numerical analysis of a real case study illustrated that the proposed optimisation approach could guide structural engineers towards areas of the solution space with realistic design configurations, enabling them to effectively evaluate trade-offs between cost and carbon performance. This significant contribution implied that the optimisation model could reduce the time required for the design and analysis of multiple structural configurations especially during the early stages of a project. Overall, the paper suggested that the deployment of automated design procedures can enhance the quality as well as the efficiency of the optimisation analysis.

본 연구는 결정적 경제성분석모형(Deterministic Economic Analysis : DEA)의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 확률적 위험도분석(Probabilistic Risk Analysis : PRA) 모형을 이용하여 ITS사업의 경제성평가모형을 개발하고 사례분석을 통해 모형의 적합성(Goodness-of-fit)과 유용성을 검증하는 것이다. 즉 ITS사업의 경제성에 영향을 미치는 위험변수를 확률밀도함수(PDF), 누적확률밀도함수(CDF)로 산출하고 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션기법(Monte-Carlo Simulation Approach : MCSA)을 통해 산출된 결과변수(사업비, 경제성지표)의 통계값에 대해 합리적인 의사결정 방법론을 정립하였다. 대규모 지방자치단체 ITS사업의 사례분석(대전광역시 첨단교통모델도시사업) 수행결과, 통합시스템의 사업비 총사업비는 PRA모형을 통해 산출된 확률분포 상에서 편의(Bias)된 백분율값으로 나타났으며, 사업비 총사업비의 변동계수가(각각 15, 4) 일반교통사업에 비해 낮아, ITS사업의 위험도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 PRA모형의 결과변수(B/C, NPA, IRP)가 변동가능한 사업환경 하에서 90%이상 모두 경제성이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 총사업비 사업비의 우발성비용(목표관리값 85%기준)이 발생하는 것으로 나타나 경제성은 높으나 사업비 초과 위험도는 높은 사업으로 분류되었다. 또한 DEA모형의 경제성평가지표는 PRA모형의 확률분포 상에 단일 %값(B/C:27%값, NPV:27%값, IRR:33%값)으로 나타나며, 평균값 또는 중앙값과 비교할 때, 경제성이 과소추정(Underestimate)되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 단위시스템의 우선순위결과정에서 모형에 따라 우선순위가 바꾸는 결과가 나타났다. 특히 대규모 ITS사업의 경제성평가 시 DEA모형이 편의된 하나의 사례만으로 경제성을 평가함으로써, 경제성을 과대 과소추정하거나 비합리적인 투자우선 순위를 도출하는 오류를 범할수 있는 것으로 나타났다.
