As Limestone mines have been operated with various environmental, societal and managemental problems depending on their characteristics and developing methods, many great efforts have been applied to solve these problems. Installing the mining facilities underground is one of the successful efforts to keep the sustainable limestone mine development. This effort could reduce these problems. However, unfortunately it made an side effect of constructing a large underground space in mining site. Moreover, this space caused a necessity of various disaster managements for the safety of workers and facilities. This study introduces the priority list of a limestone mining process if there are disasters in underground mining site. This result is coming from the risk assessment and business impact analysis on survey data which were obtained from the miners of that particular limestone mine. According to the result, the highest risk is 'disregard of safety guidelines in crushing & classifier process'. The result also shows the highest priority business, above all things, is 'a pit linked work of in & out process'.

Korea's overseas construction industry has been rather depressed by the weakened profitability as well as the sharp decrease of the market shares due to the lack of international competitiveness and the declined international market. There exist a lot of various risks in performing the overseas construction, and especially EPC projects, which entail complicated process from different parts, also require a sophisticated procurement and management skill. Subsequently, to survive in the competitive international market, we need to establish strategies to select potentially profitable projects at the initial stage of bidding process and to mitigate the high degree of risk exposure through contract negotiation and its adjustment. This research discusses the trend of environment in international construction markets. Then, it identifies the key factors that affect the profitability significantly through the structured surveys from 59 actual overseas projects, and it analyzes the key factors by using statistical methods. This research provides the profitability evaluation bases, with which overseas construction participants can forecast and analyze the risk more systematically, by eliciting profit-influencing factors using the result of statistical analysis, literature review and structuring their cause-and-effect relationships. The profitability casual hierarchy structure describes the profitability factors' hierarchy in details and their interrelationships. It also enables us to find out critical factors directly related to profitability aggravation through a qualitative and quantitative analysis. Ultimately, with this hierarchy structure as the base, the research will suggest how to develop the quantitative profitability forecasting model.

This study analyzes the contribution to the national economy of the stable water supply through managing multi-purpose dam. For the analysis, we consider 17 major multi-purpose dams and build a CGE model with summer water and winter water being the production factors as the base year of 2007. We analyze the economic impact of meeting water demand due to the dam management and estimate the risk premium of reducing the uncertainty of water supply. The analysis results show a significant production decrease in the industries of agriculture, forestry and fisheries and tap water as well as the food and beverage industry using the former industries' output as intermediates in the production and show an production increase largely in steel industry and electronic and electrical industries. Being compared to the benchmark solution, GNP is analyzed as being reduced by 0.22~0.68%. Meanwhile, the risk premium is estimated to be about 4 billion to 24 billion won for the value 01 the measure of relative risk aversion in the range 01 0.5 to 3.0.

The Critical Path Method(CPM) is an effective tool used for planning and scheduling. One of strong point in the CPM is what can calculate float. Float is able to prolong without having an effect on overall schedule of project, however concept and scope about ownership is not definite, because it is a by-product of project. Thus participants have had many dispute in using float because of their interests. In recent years, a few theories have evolved in an attempt to solve this problem. But the prior research did not make a reasonable distribution of float because their criteria of distribution was based on ratio for total project time. Actually, an application of float is achieved by participant's delay risk. Therefore. this paper proposes criteria for float distribution using delay risks, and the framework for the assessment of the delay risks.

At the time the local credit-card companies plunged into a liquidity crisis in 2002, S-Card was urged to take into account the estimated customer income (ECI) to enhance its customer credit evaluation function for the first time in Korean financial industry. Before this new attempt by S-Card, most credit-card companies including S-Card had performed a customer's credit evaluation based on the customer's behavioral factors such as the amount of purchase on credit, debt payment, and financial history that is provided from the Credit Bureau. However, this approach failed to measure customer's potential value which is one of the major factors in judging the customer's ability to pay, and hence, led to difficulties in risk management. The purpose of this case study is to present the better approach to sophisticated risk management for financial firms in Korea by reviewing S-Card's process of customer income estimation and its application to risk management.

신재생에너지 수요가 확대됨에 따라 신재생에너지 관련 제품에 소요되는 물질에 대한 관심이 확대되고 있다. 이들 물질은 공급리스크가 존재하는 희유금속이 주를 이루고 있다. 본 연구에서는 신재생에너지 등의 high tech 기술 확대로 인한 희유금속의 수요 및 공급을 전망하고 있는 미국의 critical raw material 관리 전략을 살펴보고자 한다. 미국은 2010년 12월 미국 에너지성(DOE : Department of Energy)에서 위기 물질 전략(Critical Materials Strategy)에 관한 리포트를 공표하였다. 클린 에너지 기술 4개 분야(영구자석, 선진 전지, 태양전지 박막, 형광 물질)에서 핵심이 되는 물질(희유금속 등)의 수급 불균형이 일어날 가능성에 대해 조사를 실시하여 리스크 평가하여 단기, 중단기로 구분하여 위기물질을 선정하였다. 클린 에너지 기술 4개 분야에서 핵심이 되는 물질(네오디움, 디스프로슘, 코발트, 리튬, 랜턴, 세륨, 테룰, 인듐, 갈륨, 유로피움, 테르비움, 이트륨)의 12광종 수급을 2025년까지 전망한 결과 전체적으로 단기(2010년~2015년)보다 중기(2015년~2025년)에 공급 부족이 확대한다고 예측되었다. 단기적으로는 인듐이 약간 부족하는 것 외에 디스프로슘과 이트륨에 관해서도 공급 부족할 것으로 예측되었다. 중기적으로는 코발트(전지 기술에 사용)와 유로피움(고효율 조명용의 형광 물질에 사용) 외 대상이 된 다른 모든 물질은 공급 부족이 발생할 것으로 전망되었다. 이를 종합하여 단기적으로는 디스프리슘, 유로피움, 인듐, 테르븀, 네오디움, 이트륨 등이, 중기적으로는 디스프리슘, 유로피움, 테르븀, 네오디움, 이트륨 등이 위기물질(Critical Material)로 분석되었다. 에너지성은 위기물질을 공급원다각화, 대체물질개발, 리유즈, 리사이클링 등을 국제적 파트너와 함께 추진하여 리스크를 관리할 것이며, 2011년까지 최신정보를 구축하여 위기물질 전략을 재설정할 예정이다. 체계적인 위기물질 선정 및 관리전략 등을 참조하고, 신재생에너지기술 변화에 따른 원재료의 중요성 및 리스크 관리현황을 기초로 우리나라에 적합한 위기관리 물질 선정 및 관리가 필요할 것이다.

As the business ecosystem has become more uncertain, the sources of supply chain risk have also been becoming more diverse. In particular, due to the development of informational technology in recent years, firms need to consider the emerging supply chain risk sources as well as traditional supply chain risk sources. A typical example is negative word-of-mouth by social media. Therefore, we investigated the virality of negative word-of-mouth on manufacturing firms by using YouTube as a representative social media. More specifically, we investigated how the social capital of the video creator influences the virality of negative word-of-mouth and how the emotional tone of the video affects the virality of negative word-of-mouth. In conclusion, the social capital of the video creator influenced the scale and speed of negative word-of-mouth. Furthermore, negative emotion words moderated the relation between the social capital of the video creator and the scale of negative word-of-mouth.

Most research in artificial intelligence (AI) has focused on the development of new algorithms. But as artificial intelligence has been spreading over many applications and gaining more attention from managers in the organization, academia has begun to understand the necessity of developing new artificial intelligence theories related to AI management. We reviewed recent studies in the field from 2015, and further analysis has been done for 785 studies chosen based on citation numbers of over 20. The results show that most studies have still been in the prototyping application phase of artificial intelligence across different industries. We conclude our study by calling for more research in the application of artificial intelligence in terms of organizational structures and project and risk management.
