A Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is a flexible data communication system implemented as an extension to, or as an alternative for, a wired LAN with in a building or campus. However, communications in an indoor environment present problems not encountered in outdoor wireless communication systems. Since cellular type systems are interference limited, the indoor environment is more hostile than the outdoor environment due to the lower propagation constant. In this paper, the equation for the signal to interference ratio in a multistory building will be derived. Knowing the S/I ratio, the floor frequency reuse can be determined. Finally, the simulation in this research is designed to study the performance (BER) of WLAN system in the multistory environment by applying the 8-PSK Trellis Coded modulation technique. The procedure allows a quick evaluation of BER in Wireless LAN system due to the co-channel interference.

Purpose: This study was done to develop an empowerment program for people with chronic mental illness and to analyze effects of the program on level of empowerment. Methods: The research was conducted using a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. Participants were 37 people with chronic mental illness (experimental group: 18, control group: 19). The empowerment program was provided for 8 weeks (15 sessions). Data were collected between July 21 and October 17, 2014. Data were analyzed using Chi-square, Fisher's exact test, Sapiro-wilk test, and Repeated measure ANOVA with SPSS/WIN 18.0. Results: Quantitative results show that self-efficacy, interpersonal relationships, attitudes in the workplace, occupational performance capacity, and levels of empowered execute were significantly better in the experimental group compared to the control group. Conclusion: Study findings indicate that this empowerment program for persons with chronic mental illness is effective for improving self efficacy, interpersonal skills, attitudes in the workplace, occupational performance capacity, levels of empowered execute.

수도권 미세먼지 발생저감 대책의 일환으로, 노후화된 경유차에서 발생하는 주요 대기오염물질 배출을 저감하기 위한 수도권 운행경유차 공해저감 사업이 시행되었다. 본 사업의 사회적 경제성을 평가하기 위한 방법론을 제시하고, 주요 차량 배출저감장치의 유효성을 비교 분석하였다. 방법론적으로는 노후화된 차량의 차령이 유한하기 때문에, 본 사업의 평가에 적합하도록 만기유한 형태의 실물옵션 모형을 개발하였다. 분석 결과, 공해저감 사업의 사회적 경제성은 전반적으로 확보되며, 버스와 트럭별로 저감장치를 구분하여 선택적으로 이루어질 때 그 효과가 더욱 제고되는 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of delirium care training program on the nurses' knowledge of delirium, self-confidence and performance levels in caring patients with delirium. Methods: The study was used a quasi-experimental design. The participants were 131 nurses in general nursing units in B and J hospitals. Sixty four nurses in B hospital were allocated into the experimental group and 67 nurses from J hospital into the control group. The delirium care training program was composed of lecture and clinical practice. Clinical practice of delirium care was applied everyday for 4 consecutive weeks starting from the admission day of the older adults(${\geq}70$ years old), using 'short CAM' and 'nursing checklist for delirium prevention'. Results: The knowledge of delirium, self-confidence in caring patients, and performance levels of nursing care were significantly increased in the experimental group compared to the control group. Conclusion: The findings of this study provided the evidence for the potential utility of the delirium care training program and underscored the needs of broader application of the training program of delirium care for nurses in general nursing units.

본 연구는 IPTV 환경에서 사용자의 취향에 맞는 VOD 프로그램을 추천할 수 있는 시스템을 새로이 제안하였다. 추천 알고리즘으로는 협업 필터링 기법을 사용하였다. 사용자의 프로그램 선호 취향을 나타내는 사용자 프로파일(user profile)은 사용자와 유사한 취향의 이웃 사용자들의 프로그램 선호도와 중분류 선호도 그리고 사용자 유사도를 감안하여 1주 단위로 갱신하였다. 제안 시스템의 성능평가를 위해 시청률 조사기관인 닐슨 리서치의 24주분 지상파 및 케이블 방송 시청 데이터를 IPTV 형식에 맞게 재구성하여 사용하였으며, 다양한 실험을 통해 그 실용성을 입증하였다. 실험결과 사용자 유사도 가중치를 사용하며, 그룹 크기가 5명 그리고 추천 프로그램 수가 5개 일 때 최적의 성능을 나타내었다.

Professional communication skills in writing and speaking with multiple and complex audiences are required to engineers in society of modern technology. In this paper, we proposed the effective assessment system for the Program Outcomes on the communication skill competence(PO7), which is one of the 12 program outcomes stipulated by ABEEK (Accreditation Board for Engineering Education of Korea). To ensure logical connectivity of the assessment system, we carefully selected the performance criteria by defining the core concept of "written communication" and "verbal communication". Based on the selected performance criteria, the whole process of creating assessment tools and rubrics was explained in detail. It can be expected that the assessment for the Program Outcomes on the communication skill competence would be more systematic by using the proposed assessment system.

A CCTV inspection method has been widely used to assess sewer condition and performance, but Korea lacks a proper decision support system for prioritizing sewer repair and rehabilitation (R&R). The objective of this paper is to introduce the results that we have developed in the Sewer Condition Assessment and Rehabilitation Decision-making (SCARD) Program using MS-EXCEL. The SCARD-Program is based on a standardized defect score for sewer structural and hydraulic assessment. Priorities are ranked based on risk scores, which are calculated by multiplying the sewer severity scores by the environmental impacts. This program is composed of three parts, which are decision-making for sewer condition and performance assessment, decision-making for sewer R&R priority assessment, and decision-making for optimal budget allocation. The SCARD-Program is useful for decision-makers, as it enables them to assess the sewer condition and to prioritize sewer R&R within the limited annual budget. In the future, this program logic will applied to the GIS-based sewer asset management system in local governments.

The main objective of this paper is to develop computer simulation program for performance evaluation and cost estimation of a reverse osmosis (RO) and pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) hybrid process to propose guidelines for its economic competitiveness use in the field. A solution-diffusion model modified with film theory and a simple cost model was applied to the simulation program. Using the simulation program, the effects of various factors, including the Operating conditions, membrane properties, and cost parameters on the RO and RO-PRO hybrid process performance and cost were examined. The simulation results showed that the RO-PRO hybrid process can be economically competitive with the RO process when electricity cost is more than 0.2 $/kWh, the PRO membrane cost is same as RO membrane cost, the power density is more than $8W/m^2$ and PRO recovery is same as 1/(1-RO recovery).

아동의 자발적이고 주도적인 활동을 지향하는 구성주의 과학 프로그램을 개발하여 13주에 걸쳐서 실시한 집단(26명)과 비교집단(27명)을 대상으로 창의성과 문제해결력의 사전, 사후 검사를 실시하였다. 전반적으로 창의성과 문제해결력이 모두 향상되었다. 창의성중 뚜렷한 향상을 보인 영역(유창성, 독창성, 정교성)과 그렇지 않은 영역(개방성, 추상성)이 발견되었다. 반면 모든 문제해결력의 영역(문제의 발견 및 진술, 문제에 대한 아이디어 제안 및 적용능력, 문제에 대한 결론짓기)에서는 유의한 향상이 있었다. 이러한 프로그램의 효과에 있어 성차는 유의하지 않았다.

Purpose: This study aimed to provide basic data for clinical training program development by analyzing the operating conditions and satisfaction in a clinical training program for 119 emergency medical technicians (EMTs) in South Korea. Methods: Data from 84 EMTs were collected on June 19, 2014. We administered a 64-item questionnaire about operating conditions and satisfaction in the clinical training program, and analyzed data (SPSS v 21.0). Results: The degree of performance in the field, importance of the item in the field, and level of difficulty were 3.36, 4.23, and 3.21, respectively. In the number of times that an item was directly performed according to the subjects' general characteristics a statistically difference in sex (p = .000), duty (p =.021), and total working time of trainees (p = .002). The subjects' total satisfaction score was 3.77. The difference in satisfaction according to the subjects' characteristics was a statistically significant in terms of sex (p = .016) and clinical training area (p = .005). Conclusion: A more efficient training system for hospital clinical training courses should be developed. The operation condition analyzed in this research may contribute to the improvement of the performance of EMTs.
