  • Diversification of project delivery methods (PDM) under ever-changing construction business environment has significantly changed the role of project participants. Active efforts to effectively sharing the roles and responsibilities have been observed in the project management offices (PMOs) among owner/operator organizations as well as engineering, procurement, construction and maintenance (EPCM) firms. In order for being effective in a holistic way throughout the project life-cycle, a PMO needs to have 'adequate management skills' as well as 'essential technical capabilities' in cooperating with many different participants. One of the well-known examples of the PMO's tool to support these skills and capabilities is the effective 'work packaging (WP)' that serves as a common basis integrating all relevant information in a structured manner. In an attempt to enhance the construction productivity, the concept of 'advanced work packing (AWP)' has been introduced by Construction Industry Institute (CII). The AWP enables productivity to be improved by early planning of construction packages in the design phase "with the end in mind". The purpose of this study is to identify and evaluate the 'variables' of advanced work packing (AWP) for life-cycle information integration. Firstly, an extended concept of advanced WP based on the CII AWP was defined in order to comprehend many different issues of business functions (e.g. cost, schedule, quality, etc.). A structured list of major components and variables of AWP were then identified and examined for practical viability with real-world examples. Strategic fits and managerial effectiveness were stressed throughout the analyses. Findings, implications and lessons learned are briefly discussed as well.

  • By virtue of the advanced Internet technology, there are lots of research works for e-Logistics which means virtual business activities or service architecture based on the Internet among the logistics companies. Because e-Logistics environment requires more dynamic and global service area, conventional vehicle monitoring and control technologies innate many problems in terms of Integrating, storing and sharing the location data. It needs the development of the moving object technology in order to resolve efficiently the limitations. In this paper, we propose the whole components of the moving object management system which supports the advanced sharing the location information as well as the integration of location data. We are sure the suggested system can be adopted to construct the next generation-logistics vehicle monitoring and control system by reducing the overall cost and time.

  • Recently, most corporations in Korea need to construct new management system for overcoming economic crisis. Firstly, this paper suggests “Value Creation system”. Secondly, this paper suggests CALS as strategic substitute to achieve market efficiency, capital efficiency, personal efficiency, and operation efficiency, which are four critical factors of “Value Creation system”. Korean corporations should build new business model founded on cooperation by completing CALS system and reconstruct competitive management system by using knowledge and know-how accumulated in that process. Because most corporations keep exclusive corporate culture and little experience of cooperative relationship among businesses, strategic approaches are essential for construction of CALS. These are vertical integration, organization of CALS construction teams, concurrent development of product/process, CEO's iron will, Precise vision and strategies, and education/training of participant.

  • This thesis aims to present how to make secure the identity of the brand with enhancing the esthetic expression of the brand and making the ways of emotional communication in variety, through investigating closely the case of Prada representative of the typical brands that have established the unique identity by cooperating the fashion with culture and art through their ingenious and consistent efforts. In the conclusion, the culture and art was found to be applied in two fields i.e. one of design and the other of marketing. In terms of the design, the method of inserting the image into the surface of the clothing and accessories was used. In the context, the illustration techniques, photographic patterns and applying the image of the art piece could be summarized to be used. In terms of marketing, the sponsorship of the art and exhibitions, look books, animations and fashion films, epicenter, the collaboration with the other kinds of enterprise, could be regarded as four ways of the approaches. The innovation and creativity, futuristic hybrid, nonprofit support of the art, the integration and consistency of the image of the arts could be concluded to be four major points defining the characteristics of the Prada renowned for the use of the culture and arts to its property.

  • Recently, flexible displays have been used as part of fashion beyond the concept of parts for electronic products. The flexible display applied to wearable fashion products flexibly bends according to the wearing position of the human body and, at the same time, decorates the fashion product more splendidly through the screen on which images or videos are displayed. Flexible displays, which are used for clothes and accessories, combine analogue fashion sensibility with digital screens to create a new level of convergence product design and expand the range of fashion design and fashion materials. This study aims to analyze the trends of the development and commercialization of fashion products that use flexible displays. As a research method, theoretical research and empirical research through case analysis were conducted in parallel. First, as a theoretical study, the morphological and technical characteristics of flexible displays were examined. Through theoretical studies, the effect of the characteristics of flexible displays on the development of wearable fashion products was investigated. Second, as an empirical case study, the design of wearable fashion products using flexible displays over the past 10 years and the characteristics of the displays used in the products were analyzed. Based on the characteristics analyzed, the product design, display and product integration methods and the commercialization stages of wearable fashion products using flexible displays were analyzed.

  • This study aims to analyze international trade papers published in Korea during the past 2002-2022 years. Through this study, it is possible to understand the main subject and direction of research in Korea's international trade field. As the research mythologies, this study uses the big data analysis such as the text mining and Social Network Analysis such as frequency analysis, several centrality analysis, and topic analysis. After analyzing the empirical results, the frequency of key word is very high in trade, export, tariff, market, industry, and the performance of firm. However, there has been a tendency to include logistics, e-business, value and chain, and innovation over the time. The degree and closeness centrality analyses also show that the higher frequency key words also have been higher in the degree and closeness centrality. In contrast, the order of eigenvector centrality seems to be different from those of the degree and closeness centrality. The ego network shows the density of business, sale, exchange, and integration appears to be high in order unlike the frequency analysis. The topic analysis shows that the export, trade, tariff, logstics, innovation, industry, value, and chain seem to have high the probabilities of included in several topics.

  • Banks traditionally focus on the financial services against the uncertain future liquidity needs, i.e. saving as well as lending. As the business model of banks has been shifted from the originate to hold model to the originate to distribute model since the enactment of Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act in 1999, the financial services encompass information gathering and generating, underwriting and risk sharing through packaging claims for the investors, in addition to the payment and settlement services. Ensued are the financial market integration and diversification of financial services, with which the accessibility to financial services is arguably significantly enhanced. Such integration and diversification necessarily entails the risk of contagion due to the non-fulfilling service over the several other financial services, which would be contained easily under the separate financial services. This paper addresses the pricing of fees for the integrated financial services through which the contagion could spread when the users of financial service are not immune to the failure to fulfill their obligation due to the economic turmoil. Consequently the information asymmetry about the clients is unavoidable. Higher fees could drive out the otherwise good clients out of the pool of customers for the financial services. Then, the risk could be exacerbated due to the proliferation of bad clients who are vulnerable to the financial distress and liquidity crunch. So the banks should take into account the interactional effect of the fees between/among the non interest based activities and interest based activities under the information asymmetry. Contrary to our general perception, the current analysis demonstrates that the bank should focus on the reduction of cost associated with good clients rather than that of bad clients.

  • This paper posits that arm's length buyer-supplier relationship as the intermediate type between market exchange relations and strategic partnership might be advisable, and information technology may have a role as a mechanism actualizing the effects of such arm's length relationship by strategic supply-line diversification. Based on the theoretical analysis on interactive feedback relationships among IT level, buyer-supplier relationships, and supply chain structure, we suggest a set of advisable buyer-supplier relationship type for efficient supply chain management. Also, doing so would be helpful in suggesting a dynamic IT investment and adoption model appropriate for the establishment of productive buyer-supplier relationship, and further in providing theoretical foundations and practical guidelines on the role and function of B-to-B E-commerce for efficient SC integration.

  • 웹서비스 기술이 발전함에 따라 분산환경의 웹기반 서비스들을 조합한 복잡한 비즈니스 프로세스를 구현할 수 있게 되었다. 이러한 비즈니스 프로세스는 일반적으로 비즈니스 활동(activity)들의 순서와 로직을 포함딴 이벤트 기반 모델(event-driven model)로 표현되고 있다. 하지만 비즈니스 활동을 수행하기 위해서는 불특정 다수의 대안 서비스들 중 하나를 런타임-바인딩(runtime binding)하여 해당 비즈니스 활동을 수행해야 하는 경우가 빈번히 일어나는데. 이는 기존의 이벤트 기반 모델링 기법만을 이용해서 해결하기 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 비즈니스 프로세스를 동적으로 통합할 수 있도록 상태 기반 협상 모델링(state-,driven brokering modeling SDBM)을 기존 모델링 기법에 확장한 아키텍쳐를 제안한다. SDBM은 이벤트 기반 모델링에서 표현하기 힘든 대안 서비스들의 동적 런타임-바인딩을 가능하게 하는데. 이는 대화 정잭(conversation policy)을 구현함으로써 가능해 진다. 본 논문에서는 핵심 비즈니스 프로세스에 독립적이며 웹기반의 분산 비즈니스 프로세스 간의 유연한 통합과 자동화된 협업을 수행랄 수 있는 확장된 메커니즘을 웹서비스 기술로 구현하였다.

  • 웹에 대한 사용자의 다양한 요구와 더불어 시맨틱 웹에 대한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 연구 중에 대표적인 예가 바로 온톨로지의 구축에 대한 연구이다. ICS-FORTH는 온톨로지 구축을 위한 대표적인 시스템으로 SWIM을 이용한 분산된 환경에서의 독립된 온톨로지 즉, 관계형 데이터베이스와 XML로 된 온톨로지의 통합이 가능하도록 하였다. 또한, 통합된 온톨로지를 RDF/S를 기반으로 하는 뷰의 형태로 사용자에게 제공하여 추론이 가능한 질의 처리가 가능하도록 하였다. 이에 따라, 본 논문에서는 W3C에서 제안한 OWL을 통합의 대상으로 통합의 범위를 확장하기 위한 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법은 RDF/S를 확장한 다양한 관계의 기술이 가능하기 때문에 사용자가 RQL 형태의 질의를 미들웨어에서 처리할 수 있는 형태로의 변환하는 기존 기법의 확장된 형태이다. 이러한 확장을 통하여 기존 온톨로지 통합의 범위를 확장하여 보다 많은 사용자의 다양한 요구에 대응할 수 있다.
