신뢰할 수 있는 데이타 전송을 위해 3GPP RLC 명세서는 window 기반의 수락 제어 방식이 곁들어진 selective-repeat ARQ 방식을 채택하였다. 이러한 3GPP ARQ는 selective-repeat ARQ 부류에 속하고 따라서 재정렬 문제가 내재한다. 길고 불규칙한 재정렬 시간은 throughput 및 지연 성능의 열화를 불러오고 재정렬 버퍼의 범람을 초래할 수 있다. 또한 지연과 상실에 모두 민감한 서비스를 위해 재정렬 시간은 반드시 조절되어야 한다. 이러한 재정렬의 위해를 인지하고 3GPP ARQ의 원래 수락 제어 방식을 대체하여 재정렬 버퍼의 점유량을 억제하기 위한 snowball 방식을 제안한다. Snowball 방식은 재정렬 버퍼에 남아있는 기존의 DATA PDU에 인접하지 않은 새 DATA PDU를 거부하는 특징을 갖는다. 이러한 고의적 거부는 재정렬 버퍼의 점유량을 낮추는 반면 throughput 및 지연 성능을 악화시킬 수 있다. 따라서 해석적 근사 방법을 개발하여 snowball 방식이 포화 점유량 및 throughput 비치는 영향을 조사한다. 또한 모의 실험 방법으로 실제 환경에서 최고 점유량, 정규화된 throughput 그리고 평균 지연을 평가한다. 모의 실험 결과로부터 3GPP ARQ의 원래 수락 제어 방식에 비해 snowball 방식은 점유 및 throughput 성능을 모두 고양할 수 있음을 확인한다.

Brands have begun to act without giving in to the challenges facing our society. Just like the slogan in the novel "The Three Musketeers" by Alexandre Dumas proclaimed, "All for one, one for all!" in the age of transmedia the success of brand activism must reflect the same principle. Specifically, by embracing the big as well as the little stories of consumers scattered everywhere, each and every one should create a huge resonance. This means that brands should use the cultural lever of transmedia so that the various stories of consumers do not fade into oblivion and, furthermore, expand the brand's call to action. By analyzing brand activism cases in business, this study explores the effectiveness of brand activism for advertisers to develop a better understanding of brand communication strategy. Building on findings that show new young generation consumers to favor brands that respond to social, political, and environmental issues and conceptual implications of the snowball effect, this study emphasizes consumer participation in the brand story creation process and the need for brands to aim for high standards of professionalism and accountability, so that they can grow together with their consumers.

이 연구는 사회복지사의 경험적 인식을 현상학적으로 접근하여 노인무용의 교육효과와 이에 따른 치유작용 메커니즘을 밝히는데 목적이 있다. 연구에 참여한 사회복지사는 2014년도 한국문화예술교육진흥원 사회복지 문화예술교육 지원사업에서 무용분야 수혜기관으로 선정된 노인복지기관의 사회복지사 7명이다. 연구의 자료는 1:1 심층면담을 통해 수집하였다. 연구결과 사복지사들은 노인무용교육을 단순한 신체활동보다는 정서, 인지, 정신, 사회적 예술활동으로 인식하고 있었다. 그리고 노인들은 무용활동으로 인해 개인의 긍정적 정서와 인지력을 자극하여 사회적 관계 속에서 지속적으로 피드백 하고 있었다. 때문에 이와 같은 과정에서 삶의 만족감이 점점 커지게 되는 눈덩이 효과(snowball effect)가 나타났다. 따라서 복지기관에서 이루어지는 노인무용 교육은 개인과 공동체간 끊임없는 상호작용 속에서 삶의 질을 점차적으로 증폭시킬 수 있는 치유적 예술활동이라 할 수 있다.

Objectives: This study was to measure community capacity using individual-level and organizational-level capacity indicators and illuminated the relationship of community capacity and self-rated health status in two regions in Seoul, Korea. Methods: The data from individual surveys were obtained by quota sampling the residents of two autonomous gu in Seoul (N=1,000). The data from organizational surveys were obtained by snowball sampling lists of organizations in the possession of gu offices with a sampling frame (N=153). The survey tools were 6 indicators regarding residents' social capital and a sense of community and 5 indicators regarding community-based organizations and their networks. The analysis methods consisted of the effect of the components of capacity on health status and social network analysis. Results: As for capacity on individual levels, while D-gu was mainly developed inn individual capacity in terms of social interaction, Y-gu was stronger in a sense of community and cohesion among residents. As for capacity on organizational levels, Y-gu was more developed than was D-gu in associational networks. Conclusion: It is necessary to develop health promotion program per community and to strengthen partnerships with and among grassroots organizations based in local communities through the measurement of community capacity.

The purpose of this study is to shed light on the driving motivations of contributing social word of mouth on social networking sites (sWOM) toward both tangible and intangible products. In order to develop a research model, this study adopts the motivation theory and TAM model. Data was collected from 904 members of the cosmetic and restaurant communities by using the snowball method. After assessing the validity of all constructs, the structural equation modeling (SEM) is used to test the proposed hypotheses. Results show that personal motivations (satisfaction, opinion leadership, self-enhancement, and economic incentives) and characteristics of sWOM (Perceived Usefulness and Ease of Use) have positive effect on exposure and engagement behaviors. Here are our specific findings, (1) customer satisfaction positively affects online interactions on SNSs such as Like or Sharing a content; (2) sWOM contribution behavior exists in two structures (Exposure and Engagement) and affects each other; (3) This study combines two groups of personal motivation and TAM to conceptualize a research model; and (4) The motivations of contributing sWOM between a specified service and product are rather similar. These findings help digital managers to understand consumers' behavioral contributions on SNSs and also provide interesting insights for marketers.

A shift in perspective from standard finance to behavioral finance has taken place in the past two decades that explains how cognition and emotions are associated with financial decision making. This study aims to investigate the influence of various psychological factors on investment decision-making. The psychological factors that are investigated are differentiated into two aspects, cognitive and emotional aspects. From the cognitive aspect, we examine the influence of anchoring, representativeness, loss aversion, overconfidence, and optimism biases on investor decisions. Meanwhile, from the emotional aspect, the influence of herding behavior on investment decisions is analyzed. A quantitative approach is used based on a survey method and a snowball sampling that result in 165 questionnaires from individual investors in Yogyakarta. Further, we use the One-Sample t-test in testing all hypotheses. The research findings show that all of the variables, anchoring bias, representativeness bias, loss aversion bias, overconfidence bias, optimism bias, and herding behavior have a significant effect on investment decisions. This result emphasizes the influence of behavioral factors on investor's decisions. It contributes to the existing literature in understanding the dynamics of investor's behaviors and enhance the ability of investors in making more informed decision by reducing all potential biases.

This research aims to investigate the antecedents of career growth and its impact on employee performance. The research design is quantitative with a causal method. The sample used is 242 respondents working in different hospitals in Banten Province and were selected through the snowball sampling technique. The analytical method used to examine the research model is PLS-SEM. The analysis result shows that work environment and training have an impact on increasing career development and hospital employee performance. Career development can also directly be an antecedent in improving the performance of hospital employees, but only has a moderate effect in mediating the influence of work environment and training on the employees' performance in the hospital. Based on these findings, hospital management in Banten Province must create and maintain a comfortable working environment for employees, offer training specific to each employee's line of work to help them improve their abilities, and create a system for career planning that takes into account each employee's potential.
