The paper investigates the determinants of female, maternal, and male employment in a comparable setting using an unbalanced panel data of 29 OECD countries from 2000-2013. Our empirical results show that early childhood childcare and education (ECEC) is positively associated with female employment. Furthermore, we find that ECEC does not hurt male employment. We also find that tax rates on the second earner are negatively associated with male employment as well as female employment. The estimated coefficients of ECEC, social expenditure, tax rates, and tertiary education attainment rates in maternal employment regressions are much larger in the absolute value than those in female employment regressions. Policy implications of our analysis are that an expansion of ECEC, a lower tax on secondary earner, and education are key to promote the total employment as well as female employment.

In this study, an assessment method that considers the effects of directional wind speeds on buildings or structures that are sensitive to wind is proposed. Also, the basic characteristics of directional wind speeds were assessed by means of local annual maximum wind speeds. From the method of assessment of the characteristics of directional wind speeds, their goodness-of-fit was verified by applying extreme value distribution to the data on annual maximum wind speeds from the Korea Meteorological Administration. To consider the characteristics of directional winds, an assessment method is suggested that divides the directional wind pattern of each directional wind speed into four groups. From the study results, all the data on directional wind speeds based on the Gumbel distribution were examined using data on annual maximum wind speeds from Seoul, Tongyung, and Incheon. Since the Gumbel model of all directional wind speeds has independent probability characteristics that govern the 4 directional wind pattern groups, the application ratio proposed was based on the assessment of these four groups. According to the goodness-of-fit of the data on the annual maximum wind speeds based on the Gumbel distribution, new application ratios were proposed that consider the directional wind speeds in Seoul, Tongyung, and Incheon.

The flight controller(FC) used in small-sized drone was developed as simple structure does not perform complex operations because it uses different MCU with large-sized drone. Also, the balance control of small-sized drone should be simpler than Kalman filter using complex filter and the method using Complementary filter has relatively more operations. So, the method to realize the balance control on small-sized drone effectively using two-track control operating as proper method for above is suggested in this research. This method is a system maintaining effective balance with simple structure and less operations by operating adaptively for the unbalance of the drone with the acceleration sensor with the advantage which performing accurate correction by data processing for long term change and gyroscope sensor maintaining the balance of the drone by data processing for short term change. It is confirmed that stable operation was performed mostly based on the test result for repeatable test more than 100 times using two-track control and it maintained normal state operation more than 98% excluding the difficulty of maintaining normal operation when meets sudden and rapid wind yet.

The major challenge for post-genomic study is to identify structural similarity and relationships of proteins. SCOP (Structural Classification of Proteins) is a typical database for this purpose, providing a derailed description of the structural and functional relationships of the proteins whose three-dimensional structures have been determined. Unfortunately, since the SCOP data is only available as a plain text format, it is cumbersome and error-prone to develop tools and resources to utilize the data more effectively. To meet these researchers to utilize the data more effectively. To meet these requirements, we have developed an XML representation for the SCOP site, users of the tool, named, SCOPBrowser, for effective search of SCOP database. In addition to the information available from the SCOP site, users of the tool can obtain various information such as viewing the tree hierarchy of structure classification of proteins, searching into whole protein domains, showing XML contents of a specific domain, and some useful statistics about protein structures.

A failure criterion must be considered in each failure mode and loading condition to provide easy determining strength parameters, flexibility and rational simplicity. In this study, new failure criterion was developed by introducing equivalent strength under biaxial loading of tension and torsion. The experimental results showed that the equivalent biaxial strength has a power law relation with respect to a parameter, cos($tan^{-1}R_b$). Failure strength under biaxial loadings could be predicted as a function of tensile strength, torsional strength and biaxial ratio. The scattering of experimental data could be predicted using a Weibull distribution function and the concept of equivalent biaxial strength. Also, in this study, a fatigue theory was developed based on a plane stress model which enabled the S-N curve for combined stress states to be predicted from the S-N data for uniaxial loading. The prediction models can be predicted a biaxial strength and fatigue life of general laminated composite naterials under multi-axial loadings.

The efficient Viterbi decoder that supports full data-rate output of DAB system was proposed. Viterbi decoder consumes lots of computational load and should be designed to be fast specific hardware. In this paper, SST scheme was adopted for Viterbi decoder with puncturing to reduced the power consumption. Puncturing vector tables are modified and re-arranged to be designed by a hardwired logic to save the system area. New re-scaling scheme which uses the fact that the difference of the maximum and minimum of the path metric values is bounded is proposed. The proposed re-scaling scheme optimizes the wordlength of path metric memory and greatly reduces the computational load for re-scaling by controlling MSB of path metric memory. Another saving of computation is done by proposed algorithm for branch metric calculation, which makes use of pre-calculated metric values. The designed Viterbi decoder was synthesized using SAMSUNG 0.35$\mu$ standard cell library and occupied small area and showed lower power consumption.

Web on Web 2.0 paradigm is regarded as a kind of platform. Accordingly, users on web can use almost same applications like using certain applications on personal computer, to given purposes. For Web as platform, it needs web-based or web-recognizable file format to communicate or to exchange various information contents and data among applied applications. Text-based JSON is a practical format directly linked Javascript on Web, so that XML-typed data, being previously built, can be possible for tagging process containing JSON format. However, GeoJSON handling geo-spatial data sets is now fledgling stage in standards. Thus, it is not on the practical applicability level, and there are a few tools or open sources for this format. To adopt GeoJSON for the future Geo-web application, users implement GeoJSON parser or apply the server-based open source GIS for their purpose. In this study, a preliminary work for GeoJSON application in Geo-web service carried out using Google Maps API and openlayers library API.

It is generally not preferable to install a turnout on a sharp curves but it is not desirable for the safety of a train. However, in a mountainous area or a depot where a sufficient space can not be secured to secure a straight line. In this study, in order to analyze the cause of train derailment accident that occurred in the place where turnout is installed in a sharp curves, we performed derailment analysis using line data and accident vehicle data measured at the location where the accident occurred. This derailment coefficient maximum turnout at the start of the track and derailment curve analysis showed that even big enough to cause a derailment as 1.37 in size, which was found to be consistent with the actual site survey results derailment occurred.
