Design scheme drawings of the two major corporate hospitals - Asan Medical Center and Samsung Medical Center - are analysed in the aspect of floor area distributions and their proportions for various users and user-functions. Primary users of hospitals are categorized into three ; patients, employees and others. Then, patient spaces are subdivided into patient private, patient/medical, patient/support staff, patient/nursing, patient/guardian, patient common ; employee spaces into doctors, trainees, doctors common, nurses, support staffs, non-medical staffs, employee common ; others spaces into subcontractors, general publics, non-living, and internal circulation. The purpose of this research is to develop a user-focused insight into hospital spaces and a new method of hospital programming and design.

This study calculated meta Malmquist indices and their bootstraped estimates and then decomposed them into technical efficiency change(TEC), technology change(TC), pure technology catch up(PTCU), frontoer catch up(FCU), using annual data set of general hospitals from year 2007 to 2011 collected by Korean Hospital Association and then analyzed productivity change and technology gap of Korean general hospitals. The results and implications were as follows below. First, public general hospitals showed higher meta technical efficiencies than private general hospitals while exhibited lower technology gap ratio which meant a few large private general hospitals led the whole general hospitals. Second, group productivity of private general hospitals increased larger than public general hospitals due to the differences of PTCU rather than FCU. But, there was no statistically significant differences for technical efficiency, productivity change, technology gap. Thus, public general hospitals played the same role as the private general hospitals in terms of the number of patients treated. But, considering financial hardships of public general hospitals, public hospitals needed to share and learn medical and managerial skills of the best practice of private general hospitals.

생체의료 및 보안검색 응용을 위한 테라헤르츠파 기술에 대하여 조사하였다. 테라헤르츠파는 기존의 X-선이나 초음파, 적외선, 밀리미터파 등에 비하여 독특한 특성을 가지고 있어 새로운 분광 및 영상기술을 확립할 가능성을 가지고 있다. 테라헤르츠 기술의 발전과 더불어 생체의료분야에서는 암진단, 치과질환 및 바이오칩 등에서 큰 시장을 형성할 것으로 전망되며, 보안검색분야는 공항, 항만, 지하철, 우편물 취급 등의 공공부문에서부터 군사목적에 이르기까지 응용이 가능하다. 최근 수 년 동안 소형, 경량 및 저가격의 테라헤르츠 시스템이 개발되면서 시장전망에 크게 높아졌다. 초기에는 공공시설 및 대형 병원에서 시작하여, 기술적 안정성 및 시장 활성화에 의한 경제성이 확보되면 민간 부문의 시장으로 크게 파급될 것으로 가대된다.
