Usability of soil quality monitoring network for ascertaining soil quality changes was evaluated by analysing soil quality monitoring results. Tolerance limits of soil quality monitoring results from 1997 to 2007 were calculated and compared with Korean soil quality standards. This study determined that soil quality was changed if the upper 95% tolerance limit value was greater than the soil quality standard. Fluoride most frequently exceeded the soil quality standard and nickel, zinc, arsenic, copper, lead and cadmium were followed. Analysis on land use showed that tolerance limits of industrial land use most frequently exceeded the soil quality standards and residential, road and various land uses then frequently exceeded. Tolerance limits of land uses expecting high contaminant loads frequently exceeded the soil quality standards. This fact imply that the soil quality monitoring network generates reasonable data to represent change in Korean soil quality. This study also suggested that representative sampling from well identified points should be done to improve data reliability and accurately ascertain soil quality changes.

The objectives of this paper are to introduce some characteristics of two-dimensional concept of quality and to find out the possibility of the application of two-dimensional quality concept for improving the service quality. The concept was applied to small & medium-sized foreign language Institute. In order to select some service quality dimensions and decide attractive qualify factors among numerous factors, factor analysis and frequently analysis were used. The result. is that all quality factors in empathy dimension are identified as attractive quality factors. This implies that customization program is necessary in small & medium-sized foreign language institutes for improving their competitiveness. However, all quality factors in tangibles dimension are identified as must-be quality factors.

This is an exploratory research to examine the high-speed Internet access service's quality There are relatively scanty studies on telecommunication service quality such as the high-speed Internet access service. It has long been considered that service qualify are composed of process quality and outcome quality. Conducting an empirical research, we proposed that traditional outcome quality should be segmented with technical quality and outcome quality. Outcome quality is related to meeting consumer's needs to seek terminal value. In this paper, we explore to diagnose the well-known SERVQUAL's applicability to telecommunication industry and suggest some strategic and practical implications.

Purpose: The terminology of "policy" or "quality policy" is widely used in quality management areas. But few people know and use that word with the accurate concept. This paper compares the concepts and suggests the contents for quality policy and quality strategy. Methods: This paper compares the concepts between policy and strategy through the literatures and suggests the contents for quality policy and quality strategy by exploratory study. Results: This paper suggests the contents for quality policy and quality strategy which are useful to establish the quality planning in companies. Conclusion: Strategy and policy are intimately related, and so confused in applications, therefore distinguishing both concepts clearly is necessary for effective use of them. This paper will help the right use of both concepts by showing the examples.

The clear and mechanical definition of quality is the key success factor for its wide adoption across various industries and non-profit organizations and its popularity as a managerial goal. However, 'Quality of Life'(QOL) which is a common research subject for the various social science fields seems to require a quite different conceptualization of quality. The paper is a conceptual paper which identifies the compatibility and differences between a traditional quality concept and quality in QOL studies. Also, demonstrating from the social systems perspective how quality is conceptualized in measuring the social dimensions of consumption environmental quality, the paper argues the necessity of a broadened concept regarding quality.

Quality cost system is a key element of an organization's quality program. In this paper we suggest a quality cost evaluation system for aerospace industries considering the aircraft development and manufacturing processes. To reduce the cost of poor quality, we present an extended quality cost concept and detailed quality cost categories. The extended quality cost includes prevention cost, appraisal cost, failure cost, and the cost hidden in the processes. The evaluation of this extended quality cost will be helpful in identifying critical quality issues in aerospace industries.

The purpose of this research is to identify the effect of quality circles activities upon quality circles performance and business performance. Empirical results indicate that quality circle activities influence on quality circles performance in both individual and enterprise level, Quality circles performance influences on not employment satisfaction but customer satisfaction, business performance (profitability and market values) of companies with quality circles is higher than that of companies without quality circles. In conclusion, quality circle activities influence on quality circles performance that effect on business performance.

Quality science may be defined as the subject promoting both quality and productivity, which may include quality management, quality engineering and technology innovation. The research and application of quality science have been in existence for many years in China. This report first reviews its recent history as well as the analysis of the status quo. Finally, a prospectus and comments section for the future of quality science points out the development trends and its significant effectiveness on China's modem economics.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating roles of relationship quality, satisfaction and trust, and switching cost during the process of the effects of service quality in the beauty industry. Assuming the attractiveness of alternatives of such structural relations may differ between paths of groups, effects of influence on the relation of each composition concept were investigated. This study adopted a three-dimensional model of service quality, "process quality", "outcome quality", and "environment quality." Amos was used to analyze the research hypotheses and the proposed model. The result of the study suggests that service quality positively influences relationship quality, and relationship quality yields service loyalty. The results also indicates that relationship quality positively influences switching cost and switching cost positively influences service loyalty. Each service quality dimension had a significant effect on satisfaction, trust, and the relative importance of service quality dimensions on satisfaction; trust followed the order of process quality, outcome quality, and environment quality. The moderating variable such as the alternatives' attractiveness is found to be important moderators of the path of the model.

This study examines the factors influencing internet protocol television (IPTV) usage intention. Using Davis's technology acceptance model (TAM) and DeLone and McLean's model of information system success, this study investigates the effects of information system quality (information quality, system quality, and service quality) and media quality on IPTV use in terms of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and usage intention. We examined the proposed model by employing structural equation modeling and survey data from 222 IPTV users. The results indicate that information quality, service quality, and media quality had significant effects on perceived usefulness and that information quality and media quality had significant effects on perceived ease of use. However, system quality had no effect on perceived usefulness or perceived ease of use. In addition, perceived ease of use influenced perceived usefulness, and perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use influenced IPTV usage intention. Further, the stability and reliability of IPTV services encouraged IPTV use, and successful IPTV services showed high media quality.
