현재 출산률 저하와 고령화로 인해 독거노인가구는 급격하게 증가하고 있으며 독거노인 고독사와 같은 사회문제가 증가하고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 1990년대에 '실버타운'이 들어섰으나 여러 문제들이 대두되면서 보다 발전된 형태의 노인주거시설이 필요해졌다. 이에 기존 실버타운의 단점을 보완한 시니어 코하우징이라는 신진화된 대안의 새로운 주거형태가 등장했으며, 수요자들에게 각광받고 있다. 본 연구는 시니어 코하우징 트렌드 분석에 대한 연구이다. 시니어 코하우징과 실버타운의 개념 및 특징을 이론적으로 고찰하며, 문헌 조사와 국내외 시니어 코하우징 사례조사를 통해 시니어 코하우징의 방향성을 분석하였다. 본 연구는 시니어 코하우징을 단순히 거주자 선호에 의한 주거양식이 아닌 미래사회를 위한 새로운 주거 대안으로서 인식할 필요성 고찰과 아직은 도입단계에 있는 시니어 코하우징의 활성화를 위해서 한국의 상황에 적합한 시니어 코하우징의 유형에 대한 기초 연구로서 의의가 있다.

The majority of research on lifestyle has been conducted based on a variable-centered approach. However, over the last decades, there is a growing body of research on lifestyle in terms of a person-centered approach. Hence, this study identifies senior generations' profiles based on the combination of the five realms of lifestyle. More specifically, this study utilized a Latent profile analysis(LPA) to explore both quantitatively and qualitatively distinct types of senior generation' lifestyle profiles. As a result, the five distinct types of senior lifestyle profiles were identified and these five profiles were then contrasted with traveling attitude and behavioral intention(traveling intention). In addition, this study attempted to identify similarity in the patterns of relations with theoretical antecedent, correlate and outcome variables. Results showed that even though senior generation belonging to profile groups pertaining to the high level of all five types of lifestyle were associated with a high level of attitude and behavior intention, there was no differences among the profiles. This means that regardless of the patterns of senor generation lifestyle profiles, there was no similarity. Nevertheless, it should be considered that senior generation consider a security when making a travel ling decision regardless of the patterns of lifestyle profiles. This results suggest that senior generation' traveling satisfaction is more likely obtained with the experience of safety and convenience during their travel. At last, this study discusses some implication tourism theory related to lifestyle, practices and future research on tourism profiles.

While economic crises are happening internationally due to the global financial crisis and the long-term recession of the domestic economy, South Korea is also experiencing an aging society with the retirement of the baby-boomers and a low birth-rate. The rapid retirement of baby-boomers, which is one of the essential parts of the Korean economy, is ongoing. Consequently, the number of seniors showing interest in entrepreneurship, as a way to avoid the economic threat, is increasing. Therefore, this study examined the correlation between two factors and its success, which can be stated as the influence of decision making in entrepreneurship and the influence of promotion policies to entrepreneurship. A survey was taken from 393 people, who received academic and managerial assistance from the Senior-Founded Support Center of Small Business Market Corporation and Adults Incubators of Seoul-Business Agency. and 'Hypothesis 1-1' and 'Hypothesis 2-2' were selected, because a positive effect was derived at each verification process. As a result, under the decision making types of entrepreneurship, only a reasonable type showed a positive effect at both the financial outcome and non-financial outcome of success, and the intuitive type was affected positively by the non-financial outcome. In addition, under the entrepreneur supporting business, among financial support, managerial support and educational support only managerial support had a positive effect.

21세기 초고령화시대로 접어들면서 노인의 건강과 삶의 질에 대한 욕구와 필요가 증대하고 있다. 하지만 기존의 노인복지관과 노인문화복지관은 급변하는 노인들의 욕구를 채워 주는데 한계가 있다. 따라서 새로운 니즈를 충족하는 새로운 개념의 노인놀이터가 필요하다. 노인놀이터는 실내형 노인놀이터와 실외형 노인놀이터가 있으며, 노인전용놀이터와 다세대놀이터 등으로 유형을 구분할 수 있다. 노인놀이터는 처음 중국에서 개발해 설치되었으며, 미국, 일본, 캐나다, 유럽 등 선진국 중심으로 확장되고 있다. 현 시점에서 한국형 노인놀이터의 개발을 위한 개념과 유형 등을 분석해 본다.

Recently the U-Healthcare system has been rapidly advanced to manage emergence rescue for seniors. We can access emergency rescue systems with high quality services anytime, anywhere under ubiquitous healthcare systems. The more the various systems develop, the more software security systems become important. Therefore, the safety-critical system has been widely spread to the world by advancement of the information and communication technologies. There are a lot kind of fault analysis methods to evaluate software security systems. However due to characteristics of software that is not applied by human error, it can be prevented the enormous damages and losses from improving the safety of safety-critical system. So this paper proposes an integration method of FTA and Forward and Backward FMECA. This method has each strength of FTA and FMECA which is visual and numeric in normalization. First, by use of FTA, we can redraw FTA with Forward FMECA and Backward FMECA in consideration of occurrence, severity, detection, correctness, robustness, and security. Also according to value of NRVP at each event, we can modify FTA diagrams as shown critical paths given by severity and occurrence. Also, we propose the improved emergency rescue service platform of ubiquitous healthcare systems through identifying priorities of the criticality according to normalized risk priority values (NRPV).

It will be helpful for the 'New Senior' consumer group, which in emerging in an aging society. The research methods applied were a literature review and a case study, and a database search was conducted to determine the current situation of global brands. The results of the literature review showed that seniors can be classified into four types based on their physical aging condition and emotional tendency: Prime Senior, Smart Senior, Rational Senior, and Slump Senior. The first thing that needs to be said is that the Prime Senior type is found commonly in as a way to appoint a senior model in order to switch brand image. Cases of the Smart Senior type appeared only in the beauty field, which attempted multilateral approaches such as launching products exclusively for seniors and offering make-up services after improving the usability and functionality in response to senior consumers'needs. However, as no cases of senior shift were found for the Rational Senior and Slump Senior types in either the fashion or beauty field, future studies should explore the market approaches used in those categories.
