The purposes of this study were to analyze the work patterns of selected hospital foodservices by Work Sampling methodology, and to investigate the relationship among operational factors affecting productivity. The hospitals were classified into 3 groups by the percentage of patient meals, and the percentage of special patient diet, and the menu items of patients meals. The groups clustered were characterized by productivity. Work Sampling methodology was utilized to analyze the work patterns of hospitals with selected 3 hospitals to investigate the productivity the productivity and labor times used in each work functions. Productivity index analyzed by Work Sampling were 10.36 min/meal, 10.95 min/meal, and 12.19 min/meal, respectively X, Y, Z hospital. Z hospital was significantly different from time used in direct work function and delay. Direct work function time was the highest, delay the lowest in Z hospital. The relation between the results of Work Sampling and the productivities of 3 groups showed not by delay but direct work function in the classification used in this study.

Construction operations generate a significant amount of air pollutant emissions, including carbon emissions. The environmental performance of construction operations is closely relevant to the operational efficiency of each resource employed, which indicates how efficiently each resource (e.g., construction equipment) is utilized. In this context, monitoring the operational efficiency of construction equipment provides key information in managing and improving the environmental performance and productivity of construction operations. In this paper, we report our efforts to measure the operational efficiency of construction equipment, using low-cost accelerometers. An experimental study and real-world case studies are conducted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach. The results have shown the potential of this approach as an economically feasible means of monitoring the environmental performance of construction operations.

Linear cutting tests on granite were conducted to evaluated the cutting performance of abrasive water jet(AWJ) using several types of abrasives. The abrasives used in the tests were grarnet, alumimum oxide, and silicon carbide. And one type of granite which is comercially known as "KeuchangSuk" was used as workpiece throughout the tests. The results from the tests were described in terms of cutting depth and abrasive productivity. Authors tried to confirm the effects of the operational parameters of abrasive mass flow rate, water pressure, and traverse speed of nozzle on cutting depth and presented almost all the data obtained in the tests. Abrasive productivity can be defined as the area of kerf wall cut by unit weight of abrasive and is an important factor to evaluated the cutting ability of abrasive and assess the cost effectiveness of an AWJ system. In the tests the maximum abrasive productivities of garnet, alumina, and silicon carbide were about 0.21, 0.24, and 0.20 $\textrm{cm}^2$ respectively under similar operational conditions.onditions.

본 연구는 우리나라에 도입된 오스트리아 Koller사의 K301-4와 우리나라에서 개발된 HAM300 타워야더의 전간집재작업에 대해서 작업시간을 측정하고, 작업생산성, 작업비용, 최적노망밀도에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 최대집재거리가 길어질수록 생산성은 감소되지만 K301-4와 HAM300을 비교하였을 때, 최대집재거리가 34 m 보다 길어질수록 K301-4의 생산성이 높았으며, 1회당 집재재적이 커질수록 양측의 차이는 커지는 것을 확인하였다. K301-4는 HAM300에 비해서 기계가격이 높고, 타워야더의 설치 및 철거 소요시간이 더 커지므로 HAM300이 작업비용 측면에서 효율적으로 나타났다. 타워야더를 도입하여 작업비용을 절감하기 위해서는 장기간에 걸쳐 임내노망을 반복적으로 사용하고 1회당 집재재적을 늘리는 것이 유리하다고 판단된다.

Current construction simulation approaches mostly focus on operation aspects of construction projects, ignoring managerial aspects which can radically change operational profiles (e.g., number of resources, expected productivity level, or daily working hours) during the course of construction. As a result, these approaches may mislead construction managers into unrealistic execution plans as well as make them difficult to find potential performance improvement areas. As an effort to address this issue, this paper establishes a comprehensive construction modeling framework which integrates operational and managerial aspects of construction projects. The proposed modeling framework will provide construction managers with more accurate, more reliable, and more realistic simulation results thus reducing the likelihoods of schedule delays and cost overruns.

The productivity of a hospital foodservice system has a significant implication in hospital management as costs for labor and material increase, competitions among hospitals increase, and patients' expectations as to the quality of hospital services increase. The foodservice is characterized by its labor intensiveness. The objective of this study was to examine associations between operational and managerial factors and the productivity of dishwashing work in hospital foodservice systems. The labor productivity in 20 conventional food service systems was assessed and related to a number of influencing variables within the system. The productivity measurement was based upon the total dish equivalents as a ratio of the total direct and non-direct labor hours required to wash these dishes. 20 hospitals with more than 500 beds located in Seoul were surveyed to obtain data for study variables. Questionnaire and a survey form were mailed. Statistical methods used in this study were descriptive analysis and Pearson product moment correlation analysis. Hospital system characteristic which was found to correlate significantly with productivity was the ratio of dish loss. As this increased, the productivity level increased.

Purpose - This study examines the effects of expatriate transfer on foreign affiliate's labor productivity. Design/methodology - Using Korean-owned foreign affiliate-level data, we estimate the effect of expatriate transfer on foreign affiliate's labor productivity using the system generalized method of moments model. We also consider foreign affiliate- and host country-specific contingencies and test how they are associated with expatriates in enhancing foreign affiliate's labor productivity. Findings - We consider foreign production intensity and cultural distance between the home (i.e., South Korea) and host countries as key contingencies that influence the effect of expatriates on foreign affiliate's labor productivity. We find that expatriates are effective in enhancing the labor productivity of less production-intensive foreign affiliates. This effect is strengthened as expatriates are deployed to countries that share cultural similarities with the home country. Originality/value - Considering that previous studies provide mixed results on the effect of expatriates, our findings suggest that foreign affiliate-specific operational orientation and cultural distance should be considered jointly to understand the true effect of expatriate staffing on foreign affiliate performance.

서울의 대중교통체계 개편에 따른 시내버스업체의 생산성 변화를 사고비용 고려여부에 따라 비교분석하였다. 사고비용과 같은 유해한 산출물을 고려하면서 공공기관의 생산성 분석에 적합한 자료포락분석기법의 방향거리함수를 사용하였으며, 그 값을 맘퀴스트 루엔버거 생산성 지수에 적용하였다. 시내버스업체는 운전, 정비, 관리, 차량, 연료의 투입물을 사용하여, 운행거리, 승객수 및 사고비용을 생산하는 기업형태로 상정하였다. 분석결과 사고비용 고려여부와 상관없이 생산성은 약간 증가한 것으로 나타났으며, 사고비용을 고려했을 때가 제외했을 때보다 약간 더 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 시간의 흐름에 따라 운행거리와 승객 수에 대한 투입물의 사용이 줄어들었을 뿐만 아니라 그 이상으로 안전성과 관련한 서비스가 향상되었음을 의미한다. 또한 개편 분야별 생산성 변화에 미친 영향을 분석해본 결과, 운행속도 증가와 승객 수 증가가 생산성 증가에 가장 영향을 미친 것으로 나타났다. 이는 중앙버스전용차로 설치와 대중교통통합요금거리비례제 도입의 결과를 반영하는 것으로 이들이 시간의 흐름에 따라 투입물을 감소시키면서 사고비용을 줄이는데 효과적이었다고 볼 수 있다. 다만 준공영제를 포함한 운영체계의 개편은 생산성 증가와는 관련은 있었으나 큰 영향을 미치지는 못하였다.

The purpose of this study is to improve the calculation method of the software operation pricing proposed by the software business price calculation guide from 'input manpower method' to 'rate calculation method'. The software operation pricing of the input manpower method is not objectively calculated in the domestic IT outsourcing situation where the statistical data based on the activity based estimating is insufficient and it is decided by agreement between the owner and the client. In addition, there was no standard for adjusting the productivity according to the characteristics of the operation service. In order to improve this, an operational correction factor item that can affect the software operation productivity was selected based on foreign and domestic standards, and it was confirmed through the first questionnaire to IT operation managers. In order to determine the level of difficulty of the fixed operational correction factors, the operational correction factor using AHP technique was confirmed through a second questionnaire for pairwise comparison. The operational difficulty calculation table was developed with reference to COCOMO and ITIL standards. Finally, we propose a new pricing scheme that reflects the operating rate. Regression analysis was carried out by collecting the data of the domestic public institutions on the estimated cost and the actual cost calculated from the new rate method software operation pricing. The results of the regression analysis show that the estimated cost and the actual cost are related to each other. Mean magnitude of relative error(MMRE) and PRED[25] analysis were added for accuracy analysis. MMRE and PRED also showed satisfactory results, confirming the possibility of replacing the rate method software operation pricing.
