The purpose of this study was to investigate how menu quality, human ${\cdot}$ amenity service quality, perceived risk affected quality ${\cdot}$ price menu value, social ${\cdot}$ emotion menu value and how quality ${\cdot}$ price menu value and social ${\cdot}$ emotion menu value influenced satisfaction. Also this study investigated how satisfaction affected loyalty. The model was tested in hotel restaurants settings of five-star hotels using a sample of customers visiting and enjoying menus in Daegu metropolitan city and Gyeongju city. Empirical results confirmed that not only do menu quality and human ${\cdot}$ amenity service quality increase quality ${\cdot}$ price menu value and social ${\cdot}$ emotion menu value but that perceived risk reduces social ${\cdot}$ emotion menu value. It was also found that significant antecedents of satisfaction were quality ${\cdot}$ price menu value and social ${\cdot}$ emotion menu value. Also, loyalty was also found to be a significant consequences of satisfaction.

This study analyzes the current status and prospects of Iran's air defense network, focusing on the Russian-made S-300 system, and derives implications for the development of South Korea's air defense network. Iran's air defense network exhibits strengths such as long-range detection and interception capabilities, multi-target processing, high-altitude interception, and electronic warfare response. However, it also reveals weaknesses, including lack of mobility, difficulty in detecting low-altitude targets, obsolescence, training level of operating personnel, and vulnerability to electronic warfare. Real-world cases confirm these weaknesses, making the system susceptible to enemy evasion tactics, swarm drone attacks, and electronic warfare. Drawing from Iran's case, South Korea should establish a multi-layered defense system, strengthen low-altitude air defense and electronic warfare capabilities, foster the domestic defense industry for technological self-reliance, and enhance international cooperation. By addressing these aspects, South Korea can establish a robust air defense network and firmly protect its national security. Future research should aim to secure and analyze materials from the Iranian perspective for a more objective evaluation of Iran's air defense network and continuously track Iran's efforts to improve its air defense network and the trend of strengthening drone forces to predict changes in the Middle East security situation.

Based on Merleau-Ponty and Lakoff's research on the inseparability of body and mind, this thesis seeks to explore the impact of experiences in multi-layered spaces based on media art on the understanding of human existence. The sensory experience provided by media art strengthens the viewer's physical presence and induces a new perception of reality by blurring the boundaries between reality and virtuality. Through this, it shows that it is possible to newly recognize and explore the deep relationship between human existence and the world. This paper analyzes how media art can be an important means of expanding existential experience through the connection between body and mind, and explains how the combination of art and technology contributes to ontological understanding.

This article is to propose a conceptual framework for the One Source Multi Use (OSMU) strategic model of culture content. In this study, OSMU is defined as a series of marketing activities to increase the value created by culture content. The framework of brand equity strategy is applied to develop the strategic model of OSMU, as both share the same goal - maximization of long term value created by brand or culture content. This article suggests the brand identity-based OSMU strategic model, in which the brand identity of culture content guides, integrates, and coordinates every decision-making of OSMU activities. For the maximization of brand equity value of culture content, the copyright holder of original content should decide the content's brand identity, which should provide the criteria of all decision makings regarding window strategy, adaptation of content to other genre, and merchandising. This brand identity-based OSMU strategic model can not only contribute to the sales of OSMU content, but also the creation of high equity culture content in the long run. Also, the model allows monitoring and evaluation of content's brand equity, which can be used for the strategic adjustment for the sake of long term value of the content. This study is differentiated from previous study on OSMU and expected to invigorate the further discussion on OSMU in several points. First, it broadens the scope of OSMU discussion as it views OSMU as a series of process including feedback. Second, this study points out the need for integration and coordination of various OSMU activities. Third, the strategic focus is laid on the value maximization of the original content, not 'multi used' content. Fourth, the suggested model emphasize the strategic role of copyright holder who takes the charge of the content brand management. Fifth, the model requires discussion on the components of marketing communication in addition to the content itself, which means the model includes the prospects, not only the content consumers, as the major future source for value creation.

This design proposal was accepted to a design competition for the improvement of Indi Youth Street, Mapo-Gu, which was held by the Seoul Metropolitan Government in June, 2000. The \`Hong-ik University District\` projected area consists of several streets, where the independent and youth culture unique to this area is blossoming-Indi music, underground arts, and historic meaning of the area as an estuary of Mapo. The site is also expected to attract many citizens and fereigners because of convenient accessibility of the new subway station to the Inchon International Airport and because of many attractions on the street- foods, music, art and people. Accordingly, the proposal set the main design concept of this project as \`the Street of Youth Culture\` considering its special and social status as well as the physical improvement of the street environment. With this concept in mind, the proposal designed the improvement of the physical conditions based on the motive of \`the Street of Youth Culture\`, having Indi/under art, Indi/ under music, Indi/under drama and Indi/multimedia animation. This design proposal of the Street of Youth Culture consist of three segments, which symbolize the millenium Youth Plaza, MultiMedia Animation Pocket and Arts Exhibition Pocket based on unity and balance. This plan has the ultimate aim of making the district one of the people\`s favorite streets in Seoul, which people love to visit again and find the vivacity of the new millennium youth culture.

This study examined with a view to legal system how to get over the adaptation problem as well as protection of human right about the cases of marriage immigration have sharply increased in Korea through Globalization and this brought about serious matters to multi-cultural families : disguise marriage, contract marriage, frequent divorces, especially conflict, violence, maltreatment of couple is guaranteed efficiently include against mankind universal value regardless of race, class, region undergoing farm village female marriage immigrants by cultural difference. This study is when the families of the marriage immigrants are left unattended in the state of the crisis, it definitely seems to be a serious obstacle for social integration and cost vast social expense. Therefore, I suggest the problems of multi-culture family support law and improvement plans for Marriage bureau agency management law and nationality Act through a comparative method about legislation of each country which has dealt with a phenomenon called 'multi-cultural Society' and fact-finding of female marriage immigrants in Gwang-ju Metropolitan City, professing "the city of human right".

In this paper, we propose a new multiplexer using quantum dot cellular automata (QCA), a next-generation digital circuit design technology. A multiplexer among digital circuits is a circuit that selects one of the input signals and transfers the selected input to one line. Since it is used in many circuits such as D-flip-flops, resistors, and RAM cells, research has been conducted in various ways to date. However, the previously proposed planar structure multiplexer does not consider connectivity, and therefore, when designing a large circuit, it uses an area inefficiently. There was also a multiplexer proposed as a multi-layer structure, but it does not improve the area due to not considering the interaction between cells. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new multiplexer that improves 38% area reduction, 17% cost reduction, and connectivity using a cell-to-cell interaction and multi-layer structure.

GcGAN is a deep learning model to translate styles between images under geometric consistency constraint. However, GcGAN has a disadvantage that it does not properly maintain detailed content of an image, since it preserves the content of the image through limited geometric transformation such as rotation or flip. Therefore, in this study, we propose a new image-to-image translation method, MSGcGAN(Multi-Scale GcGAN), which improves this disadvantage. MSGcGAN, an extended model of GcGAN, performs style translation between images in a direction to reduce semantic distortion of images and maintain detailed content by learning multi-scale images simultaneously and extracting scale-invariant features. The experimental results showed that MSGcGAN was better than GcGAN in both quantitative and qualitative aspects, and it translated the style more naturally while maintaining the overall content of the image.

This study reviewed the use of soil injection materials using circulating resources as injection materials for the steel pipe multi-stage construction method. The tests performed were homogel time and homogel compressive strength. The steel pipe multi-stage construction method is an auxiliary construction method for tunnels, and the expression of initial strength after construction is an important factor. The better the strength development in the initial stage, the more it can be used as an injection material suitable for the multi-stage steel pipe construction method. As a result of laboratory test, it was found that the homogel time of the injection material using circulating resources required more time than the mixing ratio using cement as the injection material. In addition, it was found that the initial strength curing time satisfying 2MPa was required for more than 24 hours. Therefore, it was confirmed that the injection material using recycled resources required a longer initial curing time than cement of the same mixing ratio.

Considering that the number of middle-aged single-person households is increasing, this study investigates dietary behaviors, nutrient intake, and mental health according to household type. Data were procured from the 2015-2019 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Totally, 5,466 participants aged 50-64 years were classified into 2 groups: a household with one member was defined as a single-person household, and households with two or more members were described as multi-person households. Single-person households comprised 10.63% of the total, with a higher average age, and lower income and economic levels than multi-person households. Compared to multi-person households, single-person households had a higher frequency of skipping breakfast, eating alone, and dining out, the moderately and severely food insecure group was more than 5 times, and nutrient intake and dietary quality were poorer. In the fully adjusted model, the odds ratios (ORs) of depressive symptoms were 2.35 times (95% CI: 1.39-3.96), and suicide ideation was 1.95 times (95% CI: 1.35-2.82) in single-person compared to multi-person households. Our results lead us to conclude that poor dietary intake in middle-aged single-person households affects the mental health, and the above factors should be considered when framing the dietary policy.
