  • The purposes of this study are to analysis correlations of teachers' developments, organizational conflicts, and school organizational efficiency, and to test the influences of teachers' developments and organizational conflicts on school organizational efficiency. The data were collected from 240 elementary school teachers in Busan. Pearson's correlation analysis among sub-factors and stepwised multiple regression analysis were applied. The research findings are as follows: First, most of the sub-factors of teachers' developments, organizational conflict, and organizational efficiency had statistically significant correlations, showing positive correlation between sub-factors of teachers' developments and organizational efficiency and negative correlation between sub-factors of organizational conflicts and organizational efficiency. Second, through stepwised multiple regression analysis at the significance level of 5%, 'conflicts against administrator' was the most significant predictor with 31.4% explanation of the variance of organizational efficiency. These results suggest the necessity of training to promote teachers' developments and administrators' leadership.

  • The distributions of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and suspended solid (SS) in Ulsan Bay were simulated and reproduced by a numerical ecosystem model for the practical application to the management of marine water quality and the prediction of water quality change due to coastal developments or the constructions of breakwater and marine facilities. Comparing the computed with the observed data of COD and SS in Ulsan bay the results of simulation were found to be good enough to satisfy the practical applications.

  • With the advent of the Internet era, most industries are actively taking part in the web-based electronic commerce markets. To come up with the trend, Korean shipping companies have built their own websites and tried to take advantage of the state-of-the-art technology. This paper aims to analyze recent developments in e-commerce of shipping industry and, Also the study suggests several solutions to invigorate the virtual transactions. To analyze recent developments, this paper carries out a cases study on the websites of 5 major shipping companies in Korea. Each sites are evaluated with respect to 4C's(Contents, Commerce, Community, Connection) analysis.

  • Recent Class requirements and IMO recommendations concerning Hull Strength Monitoring (HSM) have prompted an increasing number of shipowner to adopt monitoring systems on bulk carriers and tanker. Such systems are designed to give warning when stress levels and the frequency and magnitude of ship motions approach levels which require corrective action. When fitted these systems provide enhanced operational safety and efficiency. This paper describes a development beyond the standard BMT HSM system through the integration of stress, motion and radar-based sea state monitoring with powerful, on-board, artificial intelligence (AI) tools. The latter utilises conceptual clustering techniques as an aid to pattern recognition in stress, fatigue. motion and sea state data clusters. This, in turn, provides additional operational guidance for ship's staff. Feedback from applications of the standard BMT HSM and extended HSM systems on board the British Steel Bulk Shipping fleet is described.

  • The use of ionizing radiation and radioactive elements is becoming increasingly popular with the rapid developments in nuclear technology, radiotherapy, and radio diagnostic methods. However, ionizing radiation can directly or indirectly cause life-threatening complications such as cancer, radiation burns, and impaired immunity. Environmental contamination with radioactive elements and the depletion of ozone layer also contribute to the increased levels of radiation exposure. Radioprotective natural products have particularly received attention for their potential usefulness in counteracting radiation-induced damage because of their reduced toxicity compared with most drugs currently in use. Moreover, radioprotective substances are used as ingredients in cosmetic formulations in order to provide protection against ultraviolet radiation. Over the past few decades, the exploration of marine algae has revealed the presence of radioprotective phytochemicals, such as phlorotannins, polysaccharides, carotenoids and other compounds. With their promising radioprotective effects, marine algae could be a future source for discovering potential radioprotective substances for development as useful in therapeutics.
