  • In this paper a numerical method is presented to solve singularly perturbed two points boundary value problems for second order ordinary differential equations consisting a discontinuous source term. First, in this method, an asymptotic expansion approximation of the solution of the boundary value problem is constructed using the basic ideas of a well known perturbation method WKB. Then some initial value problems and terminal value problems are constructed such that their solutions are the terms of this asymptotic expansion. These initial value problems are happened to be singularly perturbed problems and therefore fitted mesh method (Shishkin mesh) are used to solve these problems. Necessary error estimates are derived and examples provided to illustrate the method.

  • Legumes are good sources of various nutrients. Among legumes, soybean and its flour are accessible foods to consumers. However, in case of soybean flour, there is a disadvantage of easily going rancid. Thus, this study aimed to investigate how the quality of soybean flour changes during storage according to the packaging materials and storage temperatures. The raw and roasted soybean flours were packed in two types of packaging, polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) film bags respectively, and stored at three different storage temperatures (4, 20, and $45^{\circ}C$) for 1 year. The acid value, conjugated diene value, peroxide value, p-anisidine value, thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value, lipoxygenase activity, and fatty acid content of raw and roasted soybean flours were measured at the point of starting storing, and after 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of storage. The acid value of soybean flour was increased for 4 weeks and thereafter significantly decreased (p < 0.0001). The conjugated diene value was significantly increased after 4 weeks storage at $45^{\circ}C$ with PE and PP film bags (p < 0.0001). The peroxide value had no changes during 4 weeks storage at $45^{\circ}C$ with PE and PP film bags, and then those was dramatically increased after 8 weeks (p < 0.0001). The p-anisidine values in all of storage conditions were decreased after 4 weeks. Lipoxygenase activity was decreased at 12 weeks storage at $20^{\circ}C$ and $45^{\circ}C$ with PP film bags. Acid value had positive correlations with p-anisidine value (r = 0.30 and p < 0.0001) and lipoxygenase activity (r = 0.36 and p < 0.0001), and had negative correlations with conjugated diene value (r = -0.45 and p < 0.0001) and peroxide value (r = -0.25 and p < 0.001). Conjugated diene value had a high positive correlation with peroxide value (r = 0.76 and p < 0.0001), but that had a negative correlation with lipoxygenase activity (r = -0.51 and p < 0.0001). Peroxide value had negative correlations with p-anisidine value (r = -0.20 and p < 0.01) and TBA value (r = -0.15 and p < 0.05). The degree of reduction in fatty acid content of raw soybean flour was higher than the roasted soybean flour during the storage. Total fatty acid content had positive correlations with acid value (r = 0.45 and p < 0.0001) and p-anisidine value (r = 0.58 and p < 0.0001), but had a weak negative correlation with conjugated diene value (r = -0.19 and p < 0.01). This study showed how the rancidity of the raw and roasted soybean flours progressed during storage. Thus, our findings can be used as base data to do a further study of finding and developing more stable storage conditions of the soybean flour.

  • This study set the research model to analyze the effect of customer value on brand identification and loyalty using customers of K Airline. Based on previous researches, this study extracted variables, and built a structural equation model to examine the relationship among variables. The findings of empirical research are as follows. First, it was found that functional value and emotional value of customer value have significant effect on brand identification. Thus, hypothesis 1 was accepted. Second, customers seek emotional aspect in choosing a product or a service. That is, by using an airline brand which they think is identical with their image, value, or lifestyle, they pursue brand identification with the airline. Third, given that functional value and emotional value of customer value do not affect brand loyalty, we can know that customer value strengthens brand loyalty through brand identification. To boost brand loyalty, K Airline needs to pay attention to raise brand identification of customers with consideration of other mediating variables.

  • This study details the history and characteristics of consumption values, text style analyses, and appeal types expressed in magazine commercials from 1955 to 2008. This study analyzes the level of the social structure of commercial expression for each period. Consumption values based on the categories of consumption values by Sheth (1991) were classified through a total commercials analysis. Analyses on closing types of sentences, types of sentences, and rhetorical figures were executed focusing on headline text and text style. Appealing types were composed of rational, emotional, and ethical appeals. For analysis, the crosstab analysis and chi-square test of SPSS are used. The results are as follow. Seven values were constructed, functional value, social value, emotional value, conditional value, epistemic value, fashionable value, and indistinct value. The ratio of emotional value was the highest and functional value, epistemic value conditional value, fashionable value, social value, and indistinct value followed. The emotional value social value, conditional value, fashionable value, and epistemic value that focused on the emotion of consumers increased, while the functional value decreased. Sentences that use narrative styles, hyperboles, and metaphors that increased the interest of readers were dominantly used in the headline texts. For sentence expression, a declarative sentence in a sentence type, exciting curiosity in the expression method where hyperbole and figures of speech in rhetorical expressions are used most often. Emotional appeal was used almost twice more than the reasonable appeal for appeal types of the total commercial. The lower level of reasonable appeal is information that provides the product function. Interest and expression (such as pleasure and achievement) were used most often for emotional appeal. These results show that the most important issue is the emotional value in consumption in understanding the consumer. Marketing managers should also be aware of the functional value as well as an emotional value.

  • Since the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment Report was published in 2005, the conflict between development and the preservation of the ecological environment has turned to paying attention to value assessments in rational decision-making. In recent years, the concept of ecosystem services has been recognized as a viable one for making significant decisions. However, a trade-off between increase and decrease occurs between the ecosystem services sub-categories (cultural service, regulating service, supporting service, and provisioning service), for which research centering on target sites is needed. To this end, the present study aims to investigate the trade-off relationship between service categories to search for reasonable decision-making strategies. As the research method, a survey was conducted using the translated version of SoIVES(Social Value for Ecosystem Services) 3.0 questionnaire of the United States Geological Survey. The research findings demonstrate the economic value, based on the derived monetary value of each service category, the economic value of the target site was compared among landscape aesthetic value 8,050,000 won, recreation value 6,750,000 won, biodiversity value 4,610,000 won, healing value 3,970,000 won, life-sustaining value 2,090,000 won, and productive value 220,000 won. And then the primarily recognized value criteria of the Tancheon ecosystem services illustrate landscape aesthetic and recreation value. Besides, this study illustrates visualized trade-off relationships based on user perception, and the derived relations illustrate the trade-off relationship between the cultural service, regulating service, supporting service, and provisioning service, as well as relationships between the components of the sub-categories.

  • The first purpose of this study was to reveal the types of shopping value of college students. The second purpose was to examine the change in the perception and management behaviors related to credit cards according to the types of shopping value. The third purpose was to examine the effects of shopping value on perception and management behaviors on credit cards. The data were collected from 392 college students in Seoul by a self-administered questionnaire. Analyses including frequency, mean, factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, Pearson's correlation analysis, Crosstabulation analysis, analysis of variance, K-means Cluster analysis and Multiple linear regression were conducted using SPSS WIN12.0. The major findings were as follows. First, college students can be categorized into 3 types of shopping values by K-means Cluster analysis of 14 items. The groups were entitled the hedonistic shopping value, the utilitarian shopping value, and the saving shopping value. Second, positive perception and management behaviors related to credit cards were different depending on the types of shopping value. The hedonistic shopping value group had a higher level of positive perception of credit cards and a lower level of credit card management, compared with the other groups. The saving shopping value group had higher levels of both positive perception and management of credit cards. Among the three groups, the utilitarian shopping group had the lowest level of positive perception of credit cards, despite having ahigher level of credit card management. Lastly, the most effective variance on credit card management was the utilitarian shopping value. These results suggest that a healthy shopping value is very important for having a healthy perception and management of credit cards, because shopping value is a critical variance to affect perception and management of credit cards.

  • The ongoing debate over IT productivity has revealed paradoxical effects of IT. This study proposes that IT business value is paradoxical structured. IT impacts are not easy to generalize according to one perspective or paradigm. This study assumes multiplicity in the phenomenon of IT value and explores effects of these multiple interpretations. The study seeks to understand organizational performance. Hypotheses are developed to test the relationship between competing interpretations of IT value and organizational performance. The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not senior managers perceive IT value on the basis of divergent managerial value frames.

  • The clipping value, defined as the log-likelihood ratio (LLR) in the case wherein all the list of candidates have the same binary value, is investigated, and an effective method to estimate it is presented for iterative tree search detection. The basic principle behind the method is that the clipping value of a channel bit is equal to the LLR of the maximum probability of correct decision of the bit to the corresponding probability of erroneous decision. In conjunction with multilevel bit mappings, the clipping value can be calculated with the parameters of the number of transmit antennas, $N_t$; number of bits per constellation point, $M_c$; and variance of the channel noise, $\sigma^2$, per real dimension in the Rayleigh fading channel. Analyses and simulations show that the bit error performance of the proposed method is better than that of the conventional fixed-value method.
