This study investigates the relationship between cultural distance and entry mode choice, where the foreign investor firm and the host country are both from emergent economies. Within this framework, research is limited and the issue is whether companies, regardless of their specific situations, have the same strategy when they meet a high degree of uncertainty in the host environment. In this study, we focused on the influence of informal institutional factors: cultural distance, that has been extensively analyzed in international business, measured by Kogut and Singh index and defined according to Hofstede, Globe Project and Schwartz approaches. The general trend derived from prior research proves that when a company from a developed country is involved; overall more enthusiasm is shown for wholly-owned subsidiaries rather than joint venture. This result still stands validated for corporations from this emergent economy area. Our analysis of a sample of 163 FDI in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) using logistic binary regression model reveals that the foreign firms prefer to establish wholly-owned subsidiaries in the host country over entering into a joint venture with a local firm, taking into consideration the large cultural distance.

스테레오 비전 시스템을 이용하여 이동 물체의 거리와 속도를 측정하기 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 이동 물체의 거리와 속도 측정에 있어서 가장 중요한 요소 중 하나는 물체 추적의 정확성이다. 따라서 빠르게 움직이는 물체 추적을 위해 배경 영상 기법을 이용하였고, 물체의 그림자와 잡음을 제거하기 위해 지역 Opening 연산을 이용하였다. 적응형 임계치를 적용하여 자기 변화에 상관없이 이동 물체의 추출 효율을 높이도록 하였다. 좌, 우 중심점 위치를 보정하여 더 정확한 물체의 속도와 거리를 측정할 수 있도록 하였다. 배경 영상 기법과 지역 Opening 연산을 사용하여 계산 과정을 줄임으로써 이동 물체의 거리와 속도의 실시간 처리가 가능하도록 하였다. 실험 결과, 배경 영상 기법은 다른 알고리즘과는 달리 빠르게 움직이는 물체를 추적할 수 있음을 보여준다. 적응형 임계치를 적용하여 후보 영역을 줄임으로써 목표물 추출 효율이 개선되었다. 양안 시차를 이용하여 목표물의 중심점을 보정함으로써 거리와 속도 측정 오차가 감소하였다. 스테레오 카메라에서부터 이동 물체까지의 거리 측정 오차율은 2.68%, 이동 물체의 속도 측정 오차율은 3.32%로 본 시스템의 향상된 효율성을 나타냈다.

This study investigates the binding behavior of the Korean anaphor 'caki', which has been regarded thus far as a long-distance anaphor (LDA). Given that even local anaphors can be bound long-distance when they function as exempt anaphors in certain languages (Pollard and Sag 1992; Kim and Yoon 2009a, b), I investigated the binding behavior of LD-bound 'caki', in order to determine whether LD-bound 'caki' differs from LD-bound 'caki-casin' in the same contexts. In the experiment, subjects were required to rate the grammaticality of Korean sentences representing various types of LD binding of 'caki' and to determine whether the sloppy or the strict reading was more prominent in elliptical VPs containing the anaphor. The results are discussed with respect to the typology of LDAs proposed by Cole, Hermon and Huang (2001).

A categorization for cluster is necessary when an unsupervised classfication is used for remote sensing image classification. It is desirable that this method is performed automatically, because manual categorization is a highly time consuming process. In this paper, several automatic determination methods were proposed and evaluated. They are four methods. a) maximum number method : which assigns the tharget cluster to the category which occupies the largest area of that cluster b) maximum percentage method : which assigns the target cluster to the category which shows the maximum percentage within the category in that cluster. c) minmun distance method : which assigns the target cluster to the category having minmum distance with that cluster d) element ratio matching method : which assigns local regions to the category having the most similar element ratio of that region From the results of the experiments, it was certified that the result of minimum distance method was almost the same as the result made by a human operator.

Heat transfer characteristics of distance between impinging surface and a plane jet were experi-mentally investigated. The local heat transfer coefficients were measured by a thermochromic liq-uid crystal(TLC) The jet Reynolds number studied was varied over the range from 10,000310 to 30,000310 the nozzle-to-plate distance (H/B) from 4 to 10. It was observed that the Nusselt number increases with Reynolds number the occurrence of the secondary peak in the Nusselt number is within the potential core region the potential core of the jet flow can reach the impinging surface so that the wall jet can a transition from laminar to turbulent flow resulting in a sudden increase in the heat transfer rate.

This paper describes a new fault location algorithm based on the voltage equation at the relaying point using 6-phase current for untransposed 765㎸ parallel transmission lines. The proposed method uses the voltage and current collected at only the local end. By means of 3-phase circuit analysis theory to compensate the mutual coupling effects between parallel lines, the fault location is derived. The fault distance is determined by solving the 2nd distance equation based on KVL(Kirchhoff's Voltage Law). Extensive simulation results using EMTP(Electromagnatic Transients Program) have verified that the error of the fault location achieved is up to 4.56(%) in untransposed parallel transmission lines.

Forming central warehouses for a number of stores can save costs in the continuous review inventory model due to economy of scale and information sharing. In this paper, transportation costs are included in this inventory model. Hence, the tradeoff between inventory-related costs and transportation costs is required. The main concern of this paper is to determine the number and location of central warehouses. Transportation costs are dependent on the distance from several central warehouses to each store. Hence, we develop an efficient simulated annealing algorithm using distance-based local search heuristic and merging heuristic to determine the location and the number of central warehouses. The objective of this paper is to minimize total costs such as holding, setup, penalty, and transportation costs. The performance of the proposed approach is tested by using some computational experiments.

The Cellular Nonlinear Networks structure for Distance Transform (DT) and the robust optical flow detection algorithm based on the DT are proposed. The proposed algorithm is for detecting the optical flows on the trajectories only of the feature points. The translation lengths and the directions of feature movements are detected on the trajectories of feature points on which Distance Transform Field is developed. The robustness caused from the use of the Distance Transform and the easiness of hardware implementation with local analog circuits are the properties of the proposed structure, To verify the performance of the proposed structure and the algorithm, simulation has been done about zooming image.

Utilization rate for the restrictive gate and required time and walking distance to board are to be a measure for the gate management and passenger's convenience estimation. So, the main purpose of the gate management are maximization of utilization rate and increment of airport terminal user's convenience through the efficient gate management. This study intends to maximize the utilization rate on usable gates and minimize the passenger's working distance in terminal by concerning about layout, terminal configuration, local passenger of the airport and formulate the gate assignment problem with integer linear programming problem. Then we obtained solution using optimization software LINGO and analyzed that maximize the number of assignment flights and minimize the passenger's walking distance.

본 연구는 관계적 접근으로 문화와 삶의 위험한 거리의 문제를 탐구하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 문화와 삶의 각자의 거리와 닫힌 거리를 통해 문화와 삶의 위험성의 경로와 메커니즘을 파악한다. 발견된 내용은 닫힌 문화와 닫힌 삶의 구조가 문화와 삶의 거리를 위험하게 만들고 위험한 문화와 삶을 만드는 요인이라는 것이다. 이러한 사실은 문화와 삶의 각자의 거리가 닫힌 거리로 나아가는 과정에 각자성이 작용한다는 것을 보여준다. 아울러 문화와 삶의 서로의 거리가 가능성을 가져야 위험한 거리의 문제가 해소가능성을 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 진정한 서로의 거리는 문화와 삶이 동시적으로 열린 조건충족성을 가질 수 있어야 되나 실제에 있어 그것이 오히려 위험한 거리를 야기하는 경로와 메커니즘이 된다는 사실을 발견하였다. 이러한 점에서 '단층위험성'이 아니라 '다층위험성'의 개념을 제안하였다. 또한 문화와 삶에 작용하는 위험성의 해소를 위해서는 '인식의 위험성의 중요성'이 발견되었다. '인식의 위험성'이 '현상의 위험성'을 낳는다는 사실이 확인되었다. 나아가 건강한 문화와 삶을 위해 본래적 인식이 요청된다는 것을 주장하였다. 각자의 거리를 넘어서 서로의 거리로 나아가는 열린 인식이 강조되었다.
