Software Process Improvement(SPI) becomes an important issue at software quality. A research model is suggested on the basis of previous literature. The model includes success factors for SPI as independent variables and CMM levels as mediating variables, and defines organizational performance as dependent variables. This study basically investigates causational relationships among SPI success factors, CMM levels, and organizational performance through a structured equation model. A LISREL v8.72 for windows is used for statistical analysis. Even through success factors for SPI partially influences the CMM level, the CMM level is fully related to the level of organizational performance. The results show that the success factor for SPI in Korean companies are not equal to the factors abroad, but indicate that the CMM level is closely related to the organizational performance. These results will be helpful to academicians as well as to practitioners.

Nuclear project company establishes and maintains its QA system in the conformance with applicable Codes & Standards and contract provisions. Certifying agency(e.g., Korea Electric Association) or project owner appraises the effectiveness of the company QA system by surveying or auditing it. However, although the company fulfills the requirements of this survey/audit, the capability level of its nuclear QA system is not appraised numerically and developed in that KEPIC QAP-1, used by the company as a nuclear QA guidebook, does not describe an approach for managing the capability level of the QA system. This study evaluates the characteristics of QAP-1 from the viewpoint of SE-CMM(Capability Maturity Model for Systems Engineering) in order to suggest a possible solution.

In two experiments 640 starcross replacement pullets between 25 and 154 days of age were fed ad libitum on either of 16 diets formed by the combination of $4CP{\times}4ME$ levels to study the interaction of CP and ME on growth performances. In both experiments, feed intake decreased, but protein intake, energy intake, live weight gain and feed conversion efficiency increased and sexual maturity hastened with the increase of dietary protein and/or energy level. The protein conversion efficiency decreased with the increase of dietary protein level. The energy conversion efficiency, however, did not show any relationship with dietary energy level. There was a greater improvement of growth performance due to simultaneous increase of dietary protein and energy level than that of increasing protein or energy alone.

Recently, request far application of advanced commercial technology to the defense acquisition process, to reduce the budget and shorten development time, has been increased. To accomplish these goals, the Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration(ACTD) is used for the defense acquisition process in Korea. And User Utility Assessment is tested to make a decision for transition to acquisition process. But this process does not include measurement of technology maturity and impacts of interface and interaction among the technologies. In this research, we propose the needs of measurement of TRL and IRL and application of SRL to reduce the risk during development phase, to understand the relations of technologies, and to fulfill the requirement far transition of the ACTD project to system development and demonstration process.

The hardware-based software has been loaded in almost all industrial fields including the embedded system field. As it is increasingly important to control product quality, the more businesses are expending great quality cost. However, most domestic corporations in Korea are bent on spending more money solving problems caused by poor quality rather than prevention of quality loss cost. Therefore, it's time to improve to use quality prevention cost efficiently. As for this, there has been a growing interest in controlling quantitative quality, but the managing activities for quantitative quality require a high maturity process, belonging to Level 4 and 5. So it is necessary that statistical quality control activities should be fulfilled. This study introduces various measures to build up quality control among the process areas of TMMi Level 5 to help establish the high maturity test processes of statistical quality control.

Little work has been done on the changes in the blood picture occurring at different ages in cattle. In our country Kim (1963) and Jeong (1965) recorded the blood picture of mature Korean native cattle and, recently, Mun et al. (1974) has recorded the blood picture of Holstein cows. And a comprehensive survey of the blood picture of Korean native cattle has not been made. The object of the present investigation was to make good this deficiency, and to suggest standards for the blood picture of Korean native cattle at frequent intervals from birth to maturity. The cattle were kept under average farming conditions in this country. Observations were made at the following ages: at birth; 1, 2 and 4 days; 1, 2 and 4 weeks; 2,4,6 and 9 months; 1, 2 and 3 years of age. Blood samples were drawn from the jugular vein. Erythrocyte enumerations, concentration of hemoglobin in blood and hematocrit values were made in usual manner. Erythrocyte counts increased from $8{\times}10^6/mm^3$ during the first week to a level of $10{\times}10^6/mm^3$ at 2 months of age, showing steady state untill 6 months of age; it then fell to adult level ($8{\times}10^6/mm^3$) at 9 months of age. Concentration of hemoglobin in blood and hematocrit values were closely related to the changes of erythrocyte counts. The values increased from 10 g/100 ml and 31~35 ml/100 ml during the early life to 11 g/100 ml and 38 ml/100 ml at 2 months of age, showing steady state untill 6 months of age; these then fell to adult level (10 g/100 ml and 31~34 ml/100 ml) at 9 months of age for concentration of hemoglobin in blood and hematocrit values, respectively. Mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin showed a common pattern. The values were $42{\sim}43{\mu}m^3$ and 12.4 pg during the early life and fell a little to 6~9 months of age; these then increased to reach adult levels of $43{\mu}m^3$ and 12.6 pg for mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin, respectively. Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration was little affected with age.

The short-term effects of low-level contamination by heavy metals (As, Cd, Cu, and Pb) on the soil health were examined by analyzing soil nematode community in soils planted with tomatoes. For this, the soils were irrigated with five metal concentrations ([1, 1/4, $1/4^2$, $1/4^3$, and 0] ${\times}$ maximum concentrations [MC] detected in irrigation waters near abandoned mine sites) for 18 weeks. Heavy metal concentrations were significantly increased in soils irrigated with MC of heavy metals, among which As and Cu exceeded the maximum heavy metal residue contents of soil approved in Korea. In no heavy metal treatment controls, nematode abundances for all trophic groups (except omnivorous-predatory nematodes [OP]) and colonizer-persister (cp) values (except cp-4-5) were significantly increased, and all maturity indices (except maturity index [MI] of plant-parasitic nematodes) and structure index (SI) were significantly decreased, suggesting the soil environments might have been disturbed during 18 weeks of tomato growth. There were no concentration-dependent significant decreases in richness, abundance, or MI for most heavy metals; however, their significant decreases occurred in abundance and richness of OP and cp-4, MI2-5 (excluding cp-1) and SI, indicating disturbed soil ecosystems, at the higher concentrations (MC and MC/4) of Pb that had the most significant negative correlation coefficients for heavy metal concentrations and nematode community among the heavy metals. Therefore, the short-term effects of low-level heavy metal contamination on soil health can be analyzed by nematode community structures before the appearance of plant damages caused by the abiotic agents, heavy metals.
