The purpose of this study is to classify the determinants of channel performance and to reveal the contribution of classified performance factor on the total distribution performance of individual channel members. The empirical results of this study confirm that channel member performance is too rich and complex to be accurately reflected in a single item or even limited domain performance measures. The respondents in our sample monitored a lot of different facets of performance, indicating their belief in the multidimensional nature of performance. Our finding that outcome-based monitoring was particularly pervasive was not surprising given that managerial attention to end results is expected since those results are necessary for continued survival of the dealership. However, the dealership owner were not content to rely exclusively on these outcome performance indicators. They also gathered information on the efforts and activities that lead to those outcomes as well as other facets of information such as customer satisfaction and selling skills of salesperson. Limiting the definition and measurement of performance to outcomes only, or to a single item measure would have failed to capture important facets of performance, and could distort he relationship between the managerial variables and performance.

In view of the frequent start-ups and load changes in the recent past, there is a need for fossil-fuel power plants to be more efficient and reliable for long-term operation. Under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, severe creep and fatigue damages can occur in major plant facilities, particularly, turbines and boilers. For highly stable operation and better maintenance, various techniques that facilitate a systematic assessment of the service life of critical facilities have been developed. However, to date, in Korea, to evaluate the remaining life of major facilities of fossil power plant, qualitative or semiquantitative analyses are carried out without following any standard guidelines or procedure. In this study, a standard code for assessing the remaining life of major plant facilities is proposed. This code takes into account creep and fatigue damage, which are generally accepted as dominant causes of damage to facilities. KEPIC (Korea Electric Power Industry code) is scheduled to include this guideline in 2010.

탄소발자국(carbon footprint)은 인간의 생산 및 소비활동 전 과정에서 발생하는 온실가스의 양을 나타내는 지표 중 하나로, 최근 기후변화 대응 전략의 일환으로 국제사회의 주목을 받고 있는 개념이다. 현재 영국, 일본, 스위스, 프랑스, 미국 등 선진국을 중심으로 탄소발자국 산정을 통해 온실가스 배출을 저감하려는 시도가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 탄소발자국 개념을 물관리 분야로까지 확대 적용하는 방안이 논의되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 영국과 미국의 서로 다른 형태의 물분야 탄소발자국 산정 방안을 비교 분석함으로써 우리나라의 효율적인 기후변화 대응 물관리 계획에 적용하는 방향을 제시하는 데 있다. 영국은 2008년 제정된 기후변화법에 따라 탄소 저감 목표를 수립하고 정부 차원에서 마련한 표준화된 탄소 산정 가이드라인을 바탕으로 지역 물회사들로 하여금 탄소발자국 산정 및 온실가스 저감계획을 이행하도록 하고 있다. 반면 미국의 경우, 정부 차원에서 탄소라벨링 시스템이 제도화되어 있지는 않으나, 하천네트워크(River Network)와 같은 비영리 민간단체를 통해 물 분야의 탄소 저감 인벤토리가 구축되어 왔다. 현재 우리나라 수자원 분야에서 한국수자원공사가 일부 지역 정수장의 수돗물 및 병물의 생산 및 공급 전 과정에서 발생하는 탄소를 정량화하고 있으나, 물관리 시스템 전반의 온실가스 인벤토리 구축을 통한 표준화된 저감계획이 수립되지 않은 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 우선 영국과 미국에서 진행되어 온 물 분야 탄소발자국 논의의 배경과 동향 및 시행 체계를 살펴보고, 영국 정부 차원에서 제시한 물 분야 탄소 산정 가이드라인과 미국 민간부문에서 제시한 안을 각 항목별로 분석하였다. 이를 통해 두 나라가 비슷한 시기에 탄소발자국 논의를 시작하였음에도 불구하고 실제 적용 과정에서 나타나는 차이점과 특수성을 분석하였다. 탄소발자국 산정은 오늘날 수자원 분야의 기후변화 대응력을 강화하기 위한 대안으로 그 중요성이 점차 증대되고 있다. 영국과 미국의 사례에서 살펴보았듯이 효율적인 온실가스 감축을 위해서는 총괄적인 온실가스 감축 인벤토리 구축이 선행되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구의 결과는 국내 물관리 분야에서 저감 잠재력이 큰 곳을 중심으로 한 온실가스 저감계획 및 방향 설정에 유의한 시사점을 제공할 것이다.

One-third of total energy and 50% of $CO_2$ emissions arise from construction phase. Because of this global amount of energy consumption and $CO_2$ emission, we must do our best to solve this problem. But our existing ways of meeting this problem has focused on the energy consumption saving of the construction and dwelling stage. On the other hand, we has been treated too lightly for handling the $CO_2$ emissions problem during the maintenance management and the demolition process so far,. In this paper, we quantitatively predicted and evaluated the environmental load in each construction step during all life cycle. And, we developed the environmental load assessment program for each construction step. And we proposed the reliable decision support model for objective and reliable environmental load assessment and reduction. This result must help the development of construction technology and low carbon & green growth.

최근의 통상환경중 "Logistics" 혁명을 통한 컨테이너 운송의 신속화, 인터넷혁명을 통한 전자상거래 활성화는 EDI, EC등을 통해 "Paperless trade"가 실현을 앞당기고 있다. 본 논고는 이러한 물류혁명과 인터넷 정보기술의 발달로 대두되는 문제중 기존의 종이서류로서의 운송서류를 전자식 운송서류로 대체하는데 따른 문제점과 이의 활성화 방안에 대해서 살펴보고자 한다. 인터넷 전자거래가 활성화되어지면 기존의 종이서류들은 전자메시지로 대체될 것으로 여겨진다. 이에 따라 전자계약서, 전자송장, 전자보험증권, 전자선하증권 등이 출현할 것이지만 이중 무엇보다도 전자식 운송서류중 유통성 운송서류의 전자화는 그간 전자화의 핵심부문으로 여겨서 상당한 중요성을 두어왔다. 현재 이용되는 유통성 운송서류는 그간 선하증권의 지연도착문제와 이에 따른 추가 경비의 소요, 또한 선하증권 발급에 따른 부대경비의 과다소비, 종이서류로서의 선하증권의 위조에 따른 사기문제 등에 제기되어 졌고 이에 따라 선취화물보상장 등의 현실적 대안이 제시되었지만 이 또한 여러 문제점을 야기시켜왔다. 전자식 운송서류는 이러한 문제점을 다소 해소할 수 있는 방안으로 알려져 왔다. 전자거래가 활성활 될 미래에는 운송서류의 전자화는 필연적으로 대두되게 될 것이고, 이러한 전자화에 있어 해상운송장의 사용은 바람직한 모델로 여겨지고 있다. 그렇지만 전매가 잦은 산업에 있어 해상운송장은 자체의 유통성의 미비로 인해 그 사용에 문제점이 있고, 실제 상관행에서 많은 이점을 가진 선하증권의 발행 욕구를 충족시켜 줄 수 있어야 할 것이다. 본 논고에서는 전자식 운송서류의 활성화 방안으로 첫째, 전자식 운송서류에 관한 법률정비가 필요할 것으로 여겨지며 둘째, 유통성 전자식 운송서류에 있어 관리기관의 안정성이 확보되어야 할 것으로 여겨지며 셋째, UCP에서 전자식 운송서류에 관한 조항이 삽입되어져야 할것으로 여겨지며 넷째, 여러 측면에서 우위성을 지닌 전자무역거래의 활성화는 점차적으로 운송서류의 전자화를 활성화시키는데 반드시 필요한 명제로 등장할 것으로 여겨진다.

Today, with the improvement of deep learning technology, computer vision areas such as image classification, object detection, object segmentation, and object tracking have shown remarkable improvements. Various applications such as intelligent surveillance, robots, Internet of Things, and autonomous vehicles in combination with deep learning technology are being applied to actual industries. Accordingly, the requirement of an efficient compression method for video data is necessary for machine consumption as well as for human consumption. In this paper, we propose an object-based compression of thermal infrared images for machine vision. The input image is divided into object and background parts based on the object detection results to achieve efficient image compression and high neural network performance. The separated images are encoded in different compression ratios. The experimental result shows that the proposed method has superior compression efficiency with a maximum BD-rate value of -19.83% to the whole image compression done with VVC.

Recent decrease in the availability of experienced skilled labor and a corresponding lack of new entrants has required the need for automating many of the construction equipment used in the construction industry. In particular, excavators are widely used throughout earthwork operations and automating its tasks enables work to be performed with higher productivity and safety. This paper introduces an optimal path generation method which is one of the core technologies required to make "Intelligent" excavators a reality. The method divides a given earthwork area into unit cells, identifies networks created by linking these cells, and identifies the optimal path an excavator should follow to minimize its total transportation costs. In addition, the method also accounts for drainage direction and path continuity to ensure that the generated path considers site specific conditions.

Energy aware server clusters aim to reduce power consumption at maximum while keeping QoS(quality of service) compared to energy non-aware server clusters. They adjust the power mode of each server in a fixed or variable time interval to activate only the minimum number of servers needed to handle current user requests. Previous studies on energy aware server cluster put efforts to reduce power consumption or heat dissipation, but they do not consider energy efficiency well. In this paper, we propose an energy efficient cluster management method to improve not only performance per watt but also QoS of the existing server power mode control method based on autonomous learning. Our proposed method is to adjust server power mode based on a hybrid approach of autonomous learning method with multi level thresholds and power consumption prediction method. Autonomous learning method with multi level thresholds is applied under normal load situation whereas power consumption prediction method is applied under abnormal load situation. The decision on whether current load is normal or abnormal depends on the ratio of the number of current user requests over the average number of user requests during recent past few minutes. Also, a dynamic shutdown method is additionally applied to shorten the time delay to make servers off. We performed experiments with a cluster of 16 servers using three different kinds of load patterns. The multi-threshold based learning method with prediction and dynamic shutdown shows the best result in terms of normalized QoS and performance per watt (valid responses). For banking load pattern, real load pattern, and virtual load pattern, the numbers of good response per watt in the proposed method increase by 1.66%, 2.9% and 3.84%, respectively, whereas QoS in the proposed method increase by 0.45%, 1.33% and 8.82%, respectively, compared to those in the existing autonomous learning method with single level threshold.

The purpose of this study is to activate the study on movercial. To accomplish of this, the objectives of this study are two-fold. First, this study attempts to find out how movercial are interpreted and experienced compared to product placement; and secondly, to delineate experience and interpretation in terms of the themes of movie centrality and consumption-specific relevance. This study attempted qualitative approach comparing to the criteria consisted of the themes of movie centrality and consumption-specific relevance to gain in-depth understanding of how movercial which is popped up and regarded as a newly creative format in the diffusion of internet culture and mobile communication environment is experienced and interpreted. For this aim, the moviegoer informants were classified into frequent and infrequent based on the classification method of previous product placement study of Delorme & Reid(1999) and Focus Group Interviews and In-depth Interviews were executed for understanding of how are experienced. Major implications of this study were as follows. First, prior experience of brand exposure from movercial enhanced familiarity for advertising in real-life. Second, movercial can be used to influential tools for purchasing decision with advertising and product placement. Third, informants experienced uncomfortable feeling of change and discomfort against the format of hybrid commercial message such as movercial and PPL which is penetrating into the culture and art at large.
