This study aims to review previous research on the key elements of an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) and establish their priorities in order to help relevant stakeholders build and invigorate an ecosystem that integrates blockchain technology with the digital content industry. To achieve this goal, we first structured the key elements identified from previous studies into a hierarchy model. We then assigned weighted values to each element using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) methodology. Among the main elements, the priorities were identified as follows, from most important to least: Business (0.422) > Technology (0.172) > Contents (0.144) > Human Resources (0.104) > Institutions (0.099) > Token (0.059). With regard to the sub-elements, the weighted values were found to be as follows, in descending order: Probability (0.162) > Laws and Regulations (0.071) > Estimated Growth (0.063). The implications of the results are also described within the present study. The findings of this study will be of great value to ICO founders as well as investors and provide a much-needed academic basis for the burgeoning blockchain-integrated ecosystems and businesses.

The precedent study stage of defense programs is a project stage that is conducted to support the determination of an efficient acquisition method of the weapon system determined by the requirement. In this study, the FTA/FMEA technique was used in the safety analysis process to identify elements to be conducted in the precedent study stage and a methodology for deriving the key review elements through conceptualization and tailoring was suggested. To supplement the key elements derived from the existing research, it is necessary to analyze various events that may arise from key elements. To accomplish this, the HAZOP technique for safety analysis in other industrial fields was used to supplement the results of kdy element derivation. We analyzed and modeled the execution procedure by establishing input/output information and association with the key elements of the precedent study stage derived by linking HAZOP/FTA/FMEA techniques. In addition, performance maturity was evaluated for performance of precedent study, and a risk-based response manual was generated based on inter-working information with key elements with low maturity. Based on the results of this study, it is possible to meet the performance, cost, and schedule of the project implementation through application of the key elements and procedures and the risk management response manual in the precedent study stage of the defense program.

While the utility of the number line is considerable, articulating its conceptual foundation is often neglected in school mathematics. We suggest that it is important to build up strong conceptual foundations in the earlier grades so that number lines can be used in a more meaningful way and that any misconceptions associated with the number line can be prevented or intervened. This paper addresses unit, direction, and origin as the key elements of number lines and presents activities from Davydov's curriculum for early grades that promote exploration of those key elements and may resolve some students' misconceptions. As shown in sample activities from Davydov's curriculum, this paper suggests that students can broaden their perspectives on the number line and use it versatilely in various areas of mathematics learning when they deeply engage in the construction of a number line and have flexibility in interpreting the relationships between key number line elements.

Cost estimates are very important to their decision-making in the early stages of a construction project. So Clients have wanted not only to know the results of conceptual cost estimates but also to assess their quality Conceptual cost estimates process is very complex process, so the results of cost estimates are influenced by various factors. So the purpose of this study is to reveal the key factors which influence the reliability of conceptual cost estimates in building construction projects. The analytic hierarchy process is used to determine the relative important weights of elements influencing the conceptual cost estimates. And factor analysis is used to reveal the key factors from the elements that influence the conceptual cost estimates. The results showed that the key factors is an experience level, available data level, level of will for winning the bid, difficulty level of conceptual cost estimate, uncertainty level.

In the present study, a new kind of multivariable Reissner-Mindlin plate elements with two kinds of variables based on B-spline wavelet on the interval (BSWI) is constructed to solve the static and vibration problems of a square Reissner-Mindlin plate, a skew Reissner-Mindlin plate, and a Reissner-Mindlin plate on an elastic foundation. Based on generalized variational principle, finite element formulations are derived from generalized potential energy functional. The two-dimensional tensor product BSWI is employed to form the shape functions and construct multivariable BSWI elements. The multivariable wavelet finite element method proposed here can improve the solving accuracy apparently because generalized stress and strain are interpolated separately. In addition, compared with commonly used Daubechies wavelet finite element method, BSWI has explicit expression and a very good approximation property which guarantee the satisfying results. The efficiency of the proposed multivariable Reissner-Mindlin plate elements are verified through some numerical examples in the end.

The purpose of this study is to explore the characteristics and the level of fourth grade elementary students' system thinking when they learn the unit of "Journey of Water" in terms of four key elements of system thinking such as understanding of the structure of a system, non-linearity and cyclic features, inter-relations and feedback between system properties, and temporal and invisible aspects of a system. Data included students' worksheets and their responses to a set of Likert-scaled and written assessment items on water cycle. The results showed that the level of students' system thinking did not have any hierarchy in relation to the key elements of water cycle system. In addition, the aspects of individual student's system thinking on its sub-elements were different from each other. Also, there were core ideas of system thinking which were intensively considered according to a given context to understand a complex systemic subject. When students learn water cycle, understanding of non-linearity and inter-relations were weaker compared with other key elements of system thinking. Therefore, if these two factors are taught in advance, it can promote understanding of whole system of water cycle.

Purpose Domestic asset management fintech companies are expected to grow by leaps and bounds along with the implementation of the "Data bills." Contrary to the market fever, however, academic research is insufficient. Therefore, we want to analyze user reviews of asset management fintech companies that are expected to grow significantly in the future to derive strengths and complementary points of services that have been provided, and analyze key elements of asset management fintech companies. Design/methodology/approach To analyze large amounts of review text data, this study applied text mining techniques. Bank Salad and Toss, domestic asset management application services, were selected for the study. To get the data, app reviews were crawled in the online app store and preprocessed using natural language processing techniques. Topic Modeling and Aspect-Sentiment Analysis were used as analysis methods. Findings According to the analysis results, this study was able to derive the elements that asset management fintech companies should have. As a result of Topic Modeling, 7 topics were derived from Bank Salad and Toss respectively. As a result, topics related to function and usage and topics on stability and marketing were extracted. Sentiment Analysis showed that users responded positively to function-related topics, but negatively to usage-related topics and stability topics. Through this, we were able to extract the key elements needed for asset management fintech companies.

As the number of defects in apartments has increased recently, lawsuits and disputes related to defects have also increased. As a result, the loss of time and money is enormous. Therefore, fundamental measures are needed to reduce the occurrence of defects. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to propose a plan to reduce defects, focusing on window construction. To this end, existing studies were reviewed, and data from domestic construction companies were collected and classified to organize the types of defects. Based on the classified data, eight types with a high incidence of window glass were analyzed according to the time of occurrence, and the cause and causal relationship of the defect were schematized. It aims to identify the degree of possibility of recurrence of defects for each of the eight defect types for experts and derive key management elements using the RII method. Therefore, the goal is to select key management elements of window construction that actively reflect the characteristics of the construction stage.
