This study was conducted to investigate how job attitude and organization absorption of hotel employees influence their job satisfaction and present a plan for development to the high level based on the result. It carried out the survey with 289 cooks of special grade hotels in Seoul area. According to the result, organization absorption raised by .677 when emphasizing job roles and it raised .141 when stressing the organization behavior. Furthermore, it revealed that job roles and the factor of organization behavior influenced(p<05) job satisfaction, while job roles affected job achievement(p<05). What is more, it appeared that the factors of organization absorption significantly affected satisfaction and achievement each in statistics. Considering such results, it can be presented that job attitude of cooks in special grade hotels who have optimistic mind meaningfully influenced organization absorption and job satisfaction. It showed that even though the job imposed on the cooks of special grade hotels are relatively high, organization absorption goes up as job attitude is positive, which means high productivity connecting with job satisfaction in the end.

In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the level of data-efficient utilization greatly affects the performance of the enterprise. This study was to verify the effect on organizational performance and the absorption capacity as a mediate, depending on person-job fit and person-organization fit in organizational memory affordance. According to a survey of 317 employees of large, medium and small businesses, organizations that have sufficient organizational memory have had a positive impact on both person-job fit(PJF) and person-organization fit(POF), and also on absorption capacity. In addition, the organizational memory affordance had a positive effect on absorption capacity by mediating the POF. PJF and POF had a positive effect on management performance, but only POF when mediating absorption capacity showed a positive influence relationship. This study is meaningful by comprehensively empirical analysis of the organizational IT construction environment and the members' perception of organization and job as a leading factor in absorption capacity, and simultaneously demonstrating the impact on organizational performance.

A dosimetry system's ability to monitor absorbed doses is crucial for the quality assurance and control of products that have been exposed to radiation. Here, we propose a polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-methyl yellow (MY) film as a potential dosimeter for irradiation facilities. The PVC-MY film was prepared with a simple solvent-casting method at different MY concentrations from 0.3 to 1.2 mM. To evaluate the dosimeter's performance, the film was exposed to gamma-irradiation with irradiation doses of 0-25 kGy. The optical characteristics of the films examined using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer showed that the color of the films changed from yellow to red with increasing irradiation doses, and the color change sensitivity of the films increased with increasing MY concentrations. The absorption spectra of the irradiated PVC-MY films showed three maximum absorption peaks at 417, 522, and 547 nm. As irradiation doses increased, the film absorption at 417 nm decreased, while the film absorption at 522 and 547 nm increased. The film's stability studies suggest storage of the irradiated film in a cold-dark conditions is recommended to prevent damage and maintain response stability. The findings in this study emphasize the potential of the PVC-MY film as a dosimeter for irradiation facilities.

This paper tries to provide and apply implications to line operation based on the analysis results by using empirical research methods. This paper has focused on the relationship among transformational leadership, job satisfaction, job absorption and loyalty. Following previous researches, the variables and hypothesis were defined and quantitatively measured in my research in order to analyze the effect of flight attendants' transformational leadership on their job satisfaction and loyalty. The managerial implications could be suggested as follows. Job absorption should be increased to improve flight attendants' loyalty to organization by increasing job satisfaction. Flight attendants' job satisfaction is related to transformational leadership which could be classified into Charisma, inspirational motivation and intellectual stimulus. Therefore flight attendants could be motivated by airline's controlling their charisma, inspirational motivation and intellectual stimulus. Solutions below are suggested to increase job satisfaction, absorption and loyalty.

Fluorescent yield X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy is useful for analyzing local structure of specific elements in matrices. We developed an XAFS apparatus with a 100-pixel superconducting tunnel junction (STJ) detector array with a high sensitivity and a high resolution for light-element dopants in wide-gap semiconductors. An STJ detector has a pixel size of $100{\mu}m$ square, and an asymmetric layer structure of Nb(300 nm)-Al(70 nm)/AlOx/Al(70 nm)-Nb(50 nm). The 100-pixel STJ array has an effective area of $1mm^2$. The XAFS apparatus with the STJ array detector was installed in BL-11A of High Energy Accelerator Research Organization, Photon Factory (KEK PF). Fluorescent X-ray spectrum for boron nitride showed that the average energy resolution of the 100-pixels is 12 eV in full width half maximum for the N-K line, and The C-K and N-K lines are separated without peak tail overlap. We analyzed the N dopant atoms implanted into 4H-SiC substrates at a dose of 300 ppm in a 200 nm-thick surface layer. From a comparison between measured X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) spectra and ab initio FEFF calculations, it has been revealed that the N atoms substitute for the C site of the SiC lattice.

The present paper studies the effect of chitosan, cationic starch and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as sizing agents to enhance surface properties of kenaf paper. The polymers were incorporated into the sheets by spray application. The results clearly showed that the addition of chitosan to a sheet formed from beaten fibers had excellent improvement in surface properties, compared to the effect of other additives. Sizing quality of cationic starch fairly matched with the sizing quality of chitosan, however, it was able to reduce the water absorption potential of paper more than chitosan at a same concentration. In most other properties, particularly the most important property for printing papers, surface smoothness, chitosan-sized papers are superior to the paper sized with cationic starch or PVA.

High-speed crafts suffer from losing a huge amount of their machinery energy in the form of heat loss with the exhaust gases. This will surely increase the annual operating cost of this type of ships and an adverse effect on the environment. This paper introduces a suggestion that may contribute to overcoming such problems. It presents the possibility of reusing the energy lost by the ships' exhaust gases as heating source for an absorption air condition unit onboard high-speed crafts. As a numerical example; the proposed method was investigated at a high-speed craft operating in Red Sea between Egypt and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The results obtained are very satisfactory. It showed the possibility of providing the required ship's air condition cooling load during sailing and in port. Economically, this will reduce the annual ship's operating cost. Moreover, it will achieve a valuable reduction of ship's emissions.
