We present a model, combining servitization decision and a conventional two-sided market approaches, to understand expected outcomes and current market situations. We suppose an individual manufacturer participates in multiple platforms and decides whether to initiate servitization by considering latent profitability and risk. The analytical results from the model show that increasing competition within servitized companies lead to a servitization equilibrium, wherein the ratio of servitized companies in a market is stable, due to a gradual decline in relative benefits compared to non-servitized companies. This holds even in the case that the number of customer is increasing along the diffusion of servitization, under some restricted conditions.

To observe the influence of tetrahedral and octahedral preference of cations of Ni2+, Ti4+ upon the formation and the color development of the MgO-SnO2 spinel containing Ni2+ and Ti4+ ions, the gradual substitution of Ni2+ ions for Mg2+ ions and of Ti4+ ions for Sn4+ ions of the spinel in NiO-MgO-SnO2-TiO2 system was carried out. On samples prepared by calcining the oxide and basic carbonate mixtures at 130$0^{\circ}C$ for 1.5 hour, the X-ray analysis, measurement of reflectance and the test of their stability as a glaze pigment were also carried out. On samples prepared by calcining the oxide and basic carbonate mixtures at 130$0^{\circ}C$ for 1.5 hour, the X-ray analysis, measurement of reflectance and the test of their stabiality as a glaze pigment were also carried out. The results are summarized as follows. 1) As increasing the amounts of Ni2+ ions in the xNiO.(2-x)MgO.SnO2 system, spinel was not formed easily, and the mixed-spinel was formed in NiO.MgO.SnO2 of x=1 but the spinels was not formed completely in the range of x>1.5 2) The spinels was not more formed in NiO-MgO-TiO2 system than NiO-MgO-SnO2 system. Therefore, Ti4+ ions have strong octahedral preference than Sn4+ ions. The color changed the yellow region little. The mixed-spinel or non-spinel was formed easily NiO.TiO2, MgO.TiO2 of illmenite type as the gradual substitution of Ti4+ ions for Sn4+ ions. 3) The results of glaze test. The color changed from white through graish brown to brown as the gradual substitution of Ni2+ ions for Mg2+ ions in calcium-zinc glaze and calcium glaze, and from white through light yellowish beige to dull beige in tile glaze. Also, the color did not change generally as the gradual substitution of Ti4+ ions for Sn4+ ions in NiO-MgO-SnO2-TiO2 system.

The application of Dongchimi liquid to Naengmyon broth to improve its eating quality was scientifically explored by reviewing the quality of the product properties. Primarily, the optimum fermentation conditions for Dongchimi from which the liquid portion was extracted were pursued and the optimum mixing ratio sought on the basis of the product physicochemical properties. The liquid portions, periodically extracted from Dongchimi at intervals of two or five days, during fermentation at $10^{\circ}C$, were added to Naengmyon broth. The treatments were prepared at three levels namely, basic broth only ('A') and with ratios of Dongchimi liquid to basic broth of 3:7 (v/v, 'B') and 5:5 (vfv, 'C'). As a typical phenomenon of kimchi fermentation, a gradual decrease in the pH with increasing total acidity was observed as the fermentation of the Dongchimi progressed. At $10^{\circ}C$, the optimum ripening was obtained from day 8, and continued until day 15, when the pH was maintained at about 3.8 to 4.0. The total vitamin C and reducing sugar contents increased until the 13th-day of fermentation, but then decreased thereafter. The turbidity and solid content of the Dongchimi liquid increased with progression of the fermentation. With respect to the color values, the lightness (L) decreased, with increases in the redness (a), yellowness (b) and total color difference $({\Delta}E)$ during fermentation. Most of these observed phenomena for the Naengmyon broth substituted with $30\%$ (Treatment 'A') and $50\%$ (Treatment 'B') Dongchimi liquid, with different storage periods, confirmed the previous fermentation patterns of Dongchimi. A decrease in the pH with increasing total acidity, as well as gradual increases in the total vitamin C and reducing sugars (glucose and fructose) up to the 13th-day of fermentation were accompanied by subsequent declining patterns. The turbidity and solid content of the mixed broth also increased with increasing Dongchimi liquid fermentation period. With respect to the color of the mixed broth, the lightness was decreased, while the redness, yellowness and total color difference increased with increasing Dongchimi liquid fermentation period. It was also proven that the addition of slightly over-ripened Dongchimi liquid to the Naengmyon broth was more preferable.

With the implementation of electric power industry reform, the utilities are looking for effective ways to improve the economic efficiency. One area in particular, the equipment maintenance, is being scrutinized for reducing costs while keeping a reasonable level of the reliability in the overall system. Here the conventional RCM requires the tradeoff between the upfront maintenance costs and the potential costs of losing loads. In this paper we describe the issues related to applying so-called the "Reliability-centered Maintenance" (RCM) method in managing electric power distribution equipment. The RCM method is especially useful as it explicitly incorporates the cost-tradeoff of interest, i.e. the upfront maintenance costs and the potential interruption costs, in determining which equipment to be maintained and how often. In comparison, the "Time-based Maintenance" (TBM) method, the traditional method widely used, only takes the lifetime of equipment into consideration. In this paper, the modified Markov model for maintenance is developed. First, the existing Markov model for maintenance is explained and analyzed about transformer and circuit breaker, so on. Second, developed model is introduced and described. This model has two different points compared with existing model: TVFR and nonlinear customer interruption cost (CIC). That is, normal stage at the middle of bathtub curve has not CFR but the gradual increasing failure rate and the unit cost of CIC is increasing as the interruption time is increasing. The results of case studies represent the optimal maintenance interval to maintain the equipment with minimum costs. A numerical example is presented for illustration purposes.

The estimate on volatility of stock price is related with optimum of portfolio and Important for allocation of capital asset. If the volatility of stock price is varied according to macroeconomic variables on monetary policy and industrial production, it will assist capital asset to allocate. This paper is related with stock market volatilities on macroeconomic variables in U.S. and Europe, Korea. And, it Is pertain to vary in time of this variables. Thus, this paper is related with volatilities of monetary and physical macroeconomic variables on basis of statistics. And, it is ranged front capital investment to portfolio allocation. Also, this paper takes out of sample forecast and study more after this. In case Germany, France, Italy and the Netherlands, the relative importance of monetary policy and Industrial production Is different from these countries. In case Italy and the Netherlands, monetary policy is primary factor at stabilizing for volatility of stock price. In case Korea, increasing monetary policy and industrial production is positively affected stock market. It is that the positive effect of stock price is caused by mollifying monetary policy and economic growth. Specially, this conclusion is similar to US. In Korea, gradual increase in monetary and industrial production is necessary to stability of stock market. It is different to previous results on basis of increasing stock price of money in long period.

With the gradual development of IT technology, voice phishing victims are increasing in number. In the past when only voice phone calls were made, personal information or financial information were stolen mainly by a direct phone call, but recently, as smart phones are widely in use, it is evolving into a way such as smishing that leads an access to a site with malicious codes spreading out. Since it is easy to run away after committing a crime, and trace are rarely left in case of voice phishing, it is difficult to find out criminal. In addition, it is most likely that a victim be would be exposed to further damage from another voice phishing. Its technique is growing in kinds and turning more intelligent day by day; Therefore, its victims are increasing in number. Previous researches mainly focused the area of legal studies while the factors exposed to voice phishing have not been made. Therefore, this study has analyzed the motifs in which voice phishing is done to draw out its outcomes as follows. First, a victim comes to trust the criminal by the factors of favorability, rare message, and mutuality. Second, the more sophisticated the technique of a criminal, the more likely a victim is exposed to voice phishing.

Initial irreversible capacity (IIC) can be defined by means of the initial intercalation Ah efficiency (IIE) and the initial irreversible specific capacity at the surface (IICs) with the linear-fit range of the intercalation so as to precisely express the irreversibility of an electrode-electrolyte system. Their relationship was IIC = Qc - Q$_{D}$ = (IIE$^{-1}$ - 1) Q$_{D}$ + IICs in the linear-fit range of IIE. Here, Qc and Qd signify charge and discharge capacity, respectively, based on a complete lithium ion battery cell. Charge indicates lithium insertion to carbon anode. Two terms of IIE and IICs depended on the types of active materials and compositions of the electrode and electrolyte but did not change with charging state. In an ideal electrode-electrolyte system, IIE and IICs would be 100%, 0 mAh/g for the electrode and mAh for the cell, respectively. These properties can be easily obtained by the Gradual Increasing of State of Charge (GISOC).OC).

Plasmonic effects of gold and platinum alloy nanoparticles (Au-Pt NPs) and their comparison to size was studied. Various factors including ratios of gold and platinum salt, temperature, pH and time of addition of reducing agent were studied for their effect on particle size. The size of gold and platinum alloy nanoparticles increases with increasing concentration of Pt NPs. Temperature dependent synthesis of gold and platinum alloy nanoparticles shows decrease in size at higher temperature while at lower temperature agglomeration occurs. For pH dependent synthesis of Au-Pt nanoparticles, size was found to be increased by increase in pH from 4 to 10. Increasing the time of addition of reducing agent for synthesis of pure and gold-platinum alloy nanoparticles shows gradual increase in size as well as increase in heterogeneity of nanoparticles. The size and elemental analysis of Au-Pt nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, XRD, SEM and EDX techniques.

There has been increasing interest in the value of using soybean to delay or reduce the tumor incidence. This study was undertaken to investigate the possible protective effects of soybean against hepatocarcinogenesis induced by DL-ethionine. Accordingly, we measured biochemical changes occurring in serum and liver of rats treated with DL-ethionine in the presence or absence of soybean. Male albino rats were fed a control diet containing the hepatocarcinogen, DL-ethionine, or the control diet plus soybean 30%, or the control diet plus soybean plus DL-ethionine 0.25% for three months and then returned to a control diet for up to nine months. Rats fed a control diet plus DL-ethionine showed a gradual decrease in liver DNA, RNA, total protein, and liver weight and enzyme activites of liver transaminases (GOT and GPT) and alkaline phosphatase over the 7-month study period. This was followed by a large increase in the liver parameters at the end of the $9^{th}$ month, except for 5'-nucleotidase and glucose-6-phosphatase that showed a large decrease. On the other hand, a gradual increase in the serum enzyme activities of GOT, GPT, 5-nucleotidase, alkaline phosphatase, and in the albumin/globulin (A/G) ratio is observed in the group of rats fed a control diet plus DL-ethionine compared to the control group over 8 months, and this was followed by a large increase in all serum parameters studied at nine-months. The administration of 30% soybean to the rat diet in addition to DL-ethionine maintained all parameters studied at near control values until the end of the $9^{th}$ month. This study suggests that soybean has a protective effect against the hepatocarcinogenesis induced by DL-ethionine.
