This paper aims to investigate empirically how brand trust can be formed from the customer-brand relationship through a direct use of firm's SNS in B2B context. The brand trust is fundamental elements to understanding of long-term relationship in a B2B context. To achieve the objectives of this study, data collection is through a personally administered questionnaire, and a total of 180 questionnaires was collected from the buyer or supplier who frequently visited partner's firm SNS. Excluding missing data, 120 usable data were analyzed. From the results, first, three SNS motivations (i.e. Information, social and entertainment) has a positive impact on the perceived value of SNS (i.e. perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment). Second, the perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment positively affect customer-brand relationship (brand intimacy, brand attachment). Third, the customer-brand relationship is positively related to brand trust. Implications, limitations and future research directions of the study were also discussed. These findings help managers in developing and implementing the relation between SNS use and a customer-brand relationship for long-term relationship in B2B.

Recently supercavitating underwater torpedo moving at high speed (over 200 knots) has been interested for their practical advantage of the dramatic drag reduction. Cavitator located in front of the torpedo plays an important role to generate a natural supercavity and control the motion of the object. Supercavity can be created artificially by injection of compressed gas from the rear of the cavitator at a relatively low speed. In this paper, we investigated physical characteristics of artificial supercavities through cavitation tunnel experiments. One of the main focuses of the study was to measure pressure inside the cavity, and examined variation of the gravity effects appearing according to different amount of injected air. It was also found that a stable supercavity could be sustained at injection rates less than that required to form the stable supercavity because of hysteresis effect.

As the popularization of smartphone increases the number of various applications, the number of malicious applications also grows rapidly through the third party App Market or black market. This paper suggests an investigation filter, Androfilter, that detects the fabrication of APK file effectively. Whereas the most of antivirus software uses a separate server to collect, analyze, and update malicious applications, Androfilter assumes Google Play as the trusted party and verifies integrity of an application through a simple query to Google Play. Experiment results show that Androfilter blocks brand new malicious applications that have not been reported yet as well as known malicious applications.

Objective: The aim of this research was to investigate the current status and limitations of the clinical use of a pulse tonometry device (PTD). Methods: We searched online medical databases, including Oriental Medicine Advanced Searching Integrated System (OASIS), Research Information Sharing Service (RISS), DataBase Periodical Information Academic (DBpia) and PubMed, for clinical studies of metabolic diseases that used PTD. We selected articles on the clinical application of the PTD but excluded duplicate articles, clinical studies without the PTD, and non-clinical studies. In the first screening, 551 articles were selected. Ultimately, we found 10 articles and classified the articles according to the following diseases: hyperlipidemia, diabetes, overweight and obesity, hypertension, and metabolic disease. Results: Of the 10 selected articles, 4 were focused on hypertension. Two articles were focused on overweight or obesity and two articles were focused on the metabolic disease. Conclusions: This study was the first attempt to conduct a systematic review on clinical studies of metabolic disease using the PTD as a primary outcome. We suggest that the standard of pulse wave parameters and operating procedures for the PTD should be further developed. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic information for the planning and progression of clinical studies of metabolic syndrome using PTD.

최근 하천의 치수, 이수적인 기능뿐만 아니라 자연 친화적인 하천을 조성하려는 노력들을 많이 하고 있다. 하지만 복원사업을 위한 설계 및 평가 기준이 명확히 정립되지 못하여 치수안전성 및 하도안정성에 대한 평가가 이루어지지 못하고 있다. 따라서 복원 기법에 대한 복원 전, 중, 후의 모니터링을 통하여 복원 후의 하천 변화를 예측하고, 실제 사업 시행 후 장기간의 모니터링을 통해서 적용 기법이 안정화 되어가는지에 대한 평가가 반드시 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 2001년에 시작하여 2006년 12월에 복원 사업이 완료된 오산천 하천환경 정비사업에 대한 수리학적 모니터링을 수행하여 복원 후에 대한 하천 변화를 살펴보았다. 오산천의 경우 정비사업에 따른 공사 전, 중, 후에 대한 모니터링이 과거에 수행되었지만 단기간의 모니터링이었기 때문에 하천의 안정화 과정을 확인하기에는 많이 부족하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 과거 모니터링 자료를 기초로 하여 하천복원의 목적에 부합하도록 하천이 적응관리 되고 있는지 여부를 확인하기 위해 수리학적 모니터링을 하였다. 수리학 적 모니터링은 과거 수리 수문 자료를 바탕으로 호안 변화에 따른 하상 및 하도 변화와 하천 구조물의 영향분석에 초점을 맞추어 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 검토된 사항을 바탕으로 향후 하천의 수리학적 모니터링을 위한 지표 마련에 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

Due to the improvements in circuit design and manufacturing technique, the complexity of a circuit is growing. Since the complexity of a circuit causes high frequency of faults, it is very important to locate faults for improvement of yield and reduction of production cost. But unfortunately it takes a long time to find sites of defects by e-beam proving if the physical level. A fault diagnosis algorithm in the Sate level has meaning to reduce diagnosis time by limiting fault sites. In this paper, we propose an efficient fault diagnosis algorithm in the logical level. Our method is hybrid fault diagnosis algorithm using a new fault dictionary and additional fault simulation which minimizes memory consumption and simulation time.

The extensive construction works of container terminals progressed since 2006 was converted to small scaled construction works or reclaiming works since 2012 in Busan New Port area. To investigate changes in activity of otters with the change of construction work scales, the linear densities of spraints at 15 localities of 5 areas (I-V) near the Busan New Port construction areas were surveyed during the period from 2012 to 2016. As the results, the average linear density of spraints has a tendency to increase since 2014. That is, the linear densities of spraints have increased at the area II and IV where the reclaiming works have been progressed, although have decreased or unchanged in the areas I, III and V where small scaled construction works have been progressed. Based on the fact that there were habitats at the Honamdo in the area II and the Yeondo in the area IV, otters seemed to restore their activities around the habitats as the center regardless of the reclaiming works.

Long-term care Insurance system for the Elderly was started to respond to the aged society on July 2008 in Korea. So responsibility of the care for the old is being changed from the family to the society. The introduction of that insurance system has brought the growth of demand for care service. To improve the level of quality for care service providers in long-term care, the role of care worker in providers is recognized as important. But welfare system for the care worker seems to be poor. So the Seoul Metropolitan Council is preparing an ordinance for the care worker and the purpose of this study is for the ordinance as well. Questionnaires, interviews, documentary surveys were used to carry out this study. The results of this study are summarized as follows. The job stability is the most important thing for the care worker, so local government has to make efforts to promote the job stability of care worker. A welfare center for care workers is needed for the health for care workers in the local government. And the local government has to supervise service providers more strictly and evaluate them in treatments of care worker.
