  • Super-critical type steam power plant, which operates with steam pressure above the super-critical point, has a good reputation recently and is adopted as a new standard of the Korean Electric Power Corporation. The reason for the good reputation lies in it's superior power efficiency. However, the field data of the new power plant for the verification of it's performance are still insufficient, and more empirical data are needed to acquire technologies on the effective operation of it. In this study, the authors analyzed the field test data on power efficiencies got in a super-critical type steam power plant, and evaluated the excellency of the new plant by comparing the efficiency data with the one got in a conventional sub-critical type steam power plant.

  • As web-based online communities are rapidly growing, the agents in the communities need to know their measurable belief of trust for safe and successful interactions. In this paper, we propose a computational model of trust resulting from available feedbacks in online communities. The notion of trust can be defined as an aggregation of consensus given a set of past interactions. The average trust of an agent further represents the center of gravity of the distribution of its trustworthiness and untrustworthiness. Furthermore, we precisely describe the relationships among reputation, trust and average trust through concrete examples showing their computations. We apply our trust model to online social networks in order to show how trust mechanisms are involved in the rational purchasing decision-making of buyers and sellers, and we summarize our simulation results.

  • Although e-commerce is growing fast, e-commerce consumers are still under higher risk and uncertainty in the comparison of the traditional commerce's. Consumer review boards of online shopping malls are good measures to help buyer's decision making, and should be managed effectively by sellers. We formulate the research model on consumer trust formation on seller managed web review boards on the background of previous literatures on e-WOM and trust. Our data analysis with 368 samples shows seller's reputation, e-service quality, perceived reviewer's benevolence and ability have significant positive effect on the trustworthiness of the board. Product involvement shows weak negative moderation effect on the relationship between perceived reviewer's benevolence and trustworthiness of review boards.

  • International arbitration as a dispute resolution mechanism in Asia is growing in popularity. Singapore has long been acknowledged as a regional arbitration center but Korea is now facing an increased demand as an arbitration center as well. As Singapore competes with Hong Kong and other international arbitration centers, and as Korea tries to become an alternative to Singapore, both Singapore and Korea have updated their arbitral laws and arbitration rules to reflect the current international arbitration trends. This paper examines the recent changes in the arbitration laws of Singapore and Korea, with an emphasis on recent changes in Korean arbitration laws that are designed to increase Korea's popularity as a regional arbitration center. Though Korea's reputation as an arbitration center is increasing, it is still not viewed as a major arbitration service provider. It is against this backdrop that Korea's international arbitration laws and rules will be viewed, with suggested changes to increase Korea's reputation as not only a regional hub but a center of international arbitration.

  • 최근에 주목받고 있는 하이브리드 클라우드는 기존 퍼블릭과 프라이빗 클라우드의 이점을 결합한 방식으로, 보안성과 자원 효율성이 뛰어나다는 장점이 있다. 하지만 하이브리드 클라우드 시스템을 구성하는 각각의 클라우드 개체들은 성능이 향상됨에 따라 더 역동적으로 작동하는 반면, 기존에 형성된 개체 간 관계는 차츰 느슨해지고 있기 때문에 개체 간 협력과 지속적인 신뢰 관리가 반드시 필요하다. 신뢰성 관리 시스템(Trust Management System)은 유저들의 피드백을 DB화 해서 신뢰적인 개체를 판별하는데 도움을 준다. 이 시스템은 신뢰성이라는 가치를 판단하는 근거가 매우 주관적이라는 단점을 가지고 있어 부작용이 발생하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 신뢰성 수치(Trust Value)를 계산하기 위한 파라미터에 객관적인 기준을 도입하였다. 따라서 주관적 판단과 객관적 근거가 조화된 수치를 도출하여 개체의 독립적인 의사 결정에 도움을 줌으로써 신뢰성 관리 시스템의 신뢰성을 높였다.
