  • 본 연구의 목적은 파리, 런던, 뉴욕, 서울에서의 2006년 F/W 스트릿 패션을 고찰하여 다문화권적 현 추세에서 지역별 이질성 및 유사성을 확인하는 것으로 마켓에 있는 현재의 패션 트렌드를 이해하는 것에 중점을 두었다. 사진촬영법에 의하여 4개 지역의 패션 스트릿에서 같은 기간 동안 $20{\sim}50$대 여성들로 추정되는 대상들의 착장을 디지털 카메라를 사용하여 촬영한 후 데이터로 사용할 수 있는 신뢰성 있는 사진들로부터 필요한 정보를 SPSS에 입력하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. 런던/파리, 뉴욕, 서울로 마켓 지역을 세분화하여 고찰한 결과 서울은 서구 지역과는 달리 외의의 색상에서도 블랙이 강세이기 보다는 화이트, 베이지 계열이 높은 퍼센트를 차지하였고, 하의도 진이 주류를 이루었으며 투명한 스타킹 착용자가 많아 외모지향을 그대로 표출하였다. 상의 외투의 재료에 있어서는 런던/파리, 뉴욕, 서울은 유사하게 울 또는 그와 비슷한 소재가 강세를 이루었으나 뉴욕의 경우에는 검정색 힙 길이의 패딩 재킷과 스키니 바지를 입는 착장이 다른 지역보다 좀더 두드러져 차이를 보였다. 그러나 바지의 경우 전체적으로 스키니가 강세이며 런던/파리, 뉴욕에서 매우 높은 착장률을 보였고 이와는 다르게 서울 지역은 스키니도 강세이지만 미니나 쇼트 같은 하의가 타지역보다 비율이 높아서 상이한 착장실태를 보여주었다. 이와 같이 아이템별로 서울 사람들은 일부는 유러피언과 유사하고 일부는 뉴욕과 유사한 착장형태를 하고 있으며 또한 서울의 소비자들이 DIY 스타일도 보여 좀 더 다양하게 겨울 시즌에 옷을 연출하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이 연구는 착장실태에 관한 조사를 주로 하였으나 향후 각 패션 도시의 문화적 특성이나 소비자 행동에 관한 서베이를 동시에 병행하고 다년간 리서치를 진행한다면 좀더 학계 및 업계에 기여도가 클 것으로 사료된다.

  • In this paper, a methodology to simulate the whole-building behaviour of the tall building under fire is developed by the author using a 3-D nonlinear finite element method. The mechanical and thermal material nonlinearities of the structural members, such as the structural steel members, concrete slabs and reinforcing bars were included in the model. In order to closely simulate the real condition under the conventional fire incident, in the simulation, the fire temperature was applied on level 9, 10 and 11. Then, a numerical investigation on the whole-building response of the building in fire was made. The temperature distribution of the floor slabs, steel beams and columns were predicted. In addition, the behaviours of the structural members under fire such as beam force, column force and deflections were also investigated.

  • This paper considers an integrated inventory-distribution system with a fleet of heterogeneous vehicles employed where a single warehouse distributes a single type of products to many spatially distributed retailers to satisfy their dynamic demands. The problem is to determine order planning at the warehouse, and also vehicle schedules and delivery quantities for the retailers with the objective of minimizing the sum of ordering cost at the warehouse, inventory holding cost at both the warehouse and retailers, and transportation cost. For the problem, we give a Mixed Integer Programming formulation and develop a Lagrangean heuristic procedure for computing lower and upper bounds on the optimal solution value. The Lagrangean dual problem of finding the best Lagrangrean lower bound is solved by subgradient optimization. Computational experiments on randomly generated test problems showed that the suggested algorithm gives relatively good solutions in a reasonable amount of computation time.

  • The microsurgical anastomosis is integral to the success of autologous-free tissue transfer. Successful performance of this procedure relies strongly on operator dexterity, which can be made more challenging when blood and edematous fluids obscure the field of view. Workflow is impeded by intermittent irrigation and suctioning, necessitating presence of an assistant, with risk of arterial thrombosis, from vessels being drawn into suction drains. To negate these current disadvantages and minimize the barrier of entry to microvascular operations, we designed, manufactured, and patented a novel three-dimensional printed microsurgical background device with microfluidic capabilities that allow continuous suction and irrigation as well as provide platforms that enable multiangle retraction to facilitate operator autonomy. This was validated in an ex vivo model, with the device found to be superior to the current standard. We believe that this will have major applicability to the improvement of microsurgeon

  • There is both a commercial and social imperative for innovation-led economic development. The data on inventions shows the importance of cities in the role of creating this important foundation to innovation. The importance of new venture firms in the innovation process of taking inventions to market is widely recognised, and with this recognition the science parks and science cities are working to understand and replicate the social, business and technology environments which are most fertile for these companies. This paper reviews how those with an interest in this process have addressed this challenge with new business practices and planning activities. It draws particularly on the experiences of Tech City in London and the Surrey Research Park

  • 영국은 1997년 이후 신노동당 정책에 따라 창조산업육성과 창조도시 발전을 도모하였고, 전통적 제조업 중심 도시에 창조도시 정책을 대입하여 클러스터 정책을 강화하였다. 대표적인 디지털클러스터 성공사례로 꼽을 수 있는 런던의 테크시티는 불모지였던 공간이 자생적으로 발전하기 시작하면서, 벤처기업 집적을 위한 다양한 생태계가 구축된 지역이다. 이를 위해 대학, 민간, 스타트업, 엑셀러레이터 등 유기적 연계와 영국정부의 적극적인 지원이 더해졌다. 이를 기회로 영국의 스타트업 생태계규모가 크게 성장하고, 입지 기업이 급증하고, 브랜드효과가 크게 제고되었다. 테크시티는 해당 지역의 역사적인 배경을 바탕으로 성장과 가능성을 보고 적극적인 지원을 아끼지 않은 공공의 노력과 민간의 거버넌스가 잘 조화를 이룬 사례로서, 공공분야의 정책과 민간의 서비스와 적극적 투자, 산학협력을 통한 기술과 사업화를 위한 시장플랫폼, 그리고 위험을 감수하는 적극적 투자 등이 연계되어 창업, 혁신도시로의 성장을 주도한 사례라고 볼 수 있다. 향후 미래 지향형 디지털 경제 기반 전국적으로 클러스터를 확대하려고 하는 영국의 노력에 주목해야 할 것이다.

  • Urban Informatics, the application of data science methodologies to the urban development and planning domain, has been increasingly adopted to improve the management and efficiency of cities. This paper introduces state of the art use cases in major cities including New York, London, Seoul and Amsterdam. It also introduces recent advances in using Big Data by multi-lateral institutions for poverty reduction, and startups utilizing open data initiatives to create new value and insights. Preliminary research performed on using Seoul's open data such as building permit data and health code violations are also introduced to demonstrate opportunities in this relatively new but promising area of research.

  • The ski jump in Innsbruck known for the famous annual New Year "Four-ski-jump-tournament" has been fully renewed. The original jumping tower (built for the 1976 Olympic winter games) was fully pulled down and a new landmark similar to a lighthouse has been erected located on a small hill at the border of the city. Zaha Hadid(London) won the international architectural competition for this significant building. The constructional realisation has been ordered from Aste Konstruktion and has been finally honoured with the Austrian state award for consulting 2002. After a very strict timetable the building was already handed restaurant at the top.

  • Since 1980's there have been two trends that obviously developed in the would -- economics globalization and urban internationalization. China, with is reform and opening-up policy and rapid economic growth, keeps pace with these two trends. The term "International City" has no putative standard or definition. If we make an analogue of urban functional hierarchy in the world with a pyramid, the International Citiesa are the few elites on its top. The highest level international cities can be called "World City" or "Global City". In today's new international division of labor, they are diversified leading cities with control capacity on a world scale, like New York, London, and Tokyo. The secondary international cities are either diversified cities with influence and regulative functions on multinational scale or specialized cities on politics, economics, culture, or other aspects with worldwide impact. Judged by different criteria, there is no city that is qualified as International City with the exception of Hong Kong, which was returned to the P.R. of China in 1997. Nevertheless, Some favorable conditions for the development of the international city still exist in China. This country is already the sixth largest economic entity in the world, and the second largest economic entity in the world, and the second largest one if GNP estimated by ppp. Furthermore its import and export value make up for 40% of its GNP, indicating that China is repidly merging into global economy. In this 1, 2 billion-population country, the difference of economic levels between urban and rural, coastal and inland regions is so big that a few metropolises in the coastal region have the possibilities and potentials to develop into international cities regardless of rather low GNP per capita of the whole country. This article will focus on analysis from several perspectives, such as the proportion of foreign trade values in GDP, the proportion of imports and exports by foreign funded enterprises in total foreign trade value; distribution of the 500 largest foreign-funded enterprises; distribution of the 500 enterprises with largest import and export values; distrigbution of foreign computer and telecom companies with offices in China; the number of outward flights per week and the international tourists; the value of foreign capital used in cities and so on. From this analysis, it is predicted that Chinese international cities will surely emergy from the eastern coastal regions and they must be the core cities of metropolitan interlocking regions that have been formed or in the process of forming. Those international cities will arise from south to north in turn : Hong Kong-Guangzhu, Shanghai, Beijing-Tianjin, and perhaps the last one is Dalian-Shenyang. The other side of this issue is that there is a long way for the coming international cities in China except Hong Kong. At least China and these core cities must continually devote to (1) improve the regional composition of foreign capital sources. (2) improve the composition of export commodities. (3) improve the investment environment (including hard and soft environment) to attract more transnational corporations to settle. (4) deepen the reform of state-owned enterprises and establish Chinese own transnational corporations to enter the world market.ons to enter the world market.

  • The UK Government's approach to how to deliver regeneration in its towns and cities has changed considerably in recent years. Traditionally, urban regeneration policy focused on reversing physical, economic and social decline in an area where market forces would not do this without intervention. Since 2010 urban regeneration has become a vital part of the Government's approach to increasing local growth and competitiveness and building a strong and balanced economy. The current emphasis is on a place-based approach to regeneration that builds on the particular strengths of different places to drive growth and addresses the factors that hold them back. This paper outlines the key features of current UK urban regeneration policy and how interventions to support regeneration and growth are being pursued at different spatial scales to ensure all parts of the country benefit. They include pan regional initiatives like the Northern Powerhouse and Midlands Way, to groups of local authorities operating at a sub regional level (combined authorities/city regions), Local Enterprise Partnerships, and a variety of smaller scale programmes delivering regeneration in areas of economic and social decline. The paper explains some of the policy instruments and funding programmes available to support regeneration, and provides case studies of some major urban regeneration projects that illustrate the new approach including housing and infrastructure improvements like the planned High Speed Rail 2 line. These are supporting regeneration through the creation of strategic partnerships involving government, places and investors. The paper concludes with some lessons from past and future regeneration schemes to improve their effectiveness and impact on places and enhance local growth potential.
