There are many constraints, both economically and ethically that experimenting human evacuation behavior in situations such as fire. Therefore, the evacuation behavior is simulated based on the existing studies. In recent years, the foundation has been established as computer performance advances, models closer to reality can be studied. In this study, the evacuation time in the subway platform was analyzed from modeling human behavior and smoke propagation in a fire. The evacuation efficiency was also examined by dividing the shape of the subway station platform by the stair position and comparing the evacuation times for each platform. As a result, it was found that the side platform was longer than the island platform by 36.82% more time to evacuation. The shape of the stairs is most advantageous in terms of evacuation form side type platform was 210 seconds and island type platform was 186 seconds, when a fire occurs in the center of the platform. And most favorable in location of evacuation stairs were located at 2/5 point and 4/5 from depending on the step location.

인터넷은 한국사회 전반에 많은 변화를 초래하였다. 인터넷이 빠르게 확산되어 2004년 말에 인터넷 이용자 3,000만 명 시대를 열었고 이동전화, 초고속 인터넷 등 새로운 정보기술이 보편적으로 활용되는 단계에 이르렀다. 그에 따라 개인 홈페이지가 커뮤니케이션의 새로운 수단으로 자리 잡았고, 이에 따른 새로운 네티즌 문화를 탄생시켰다. 사회문화적 측면에서 그동안 정보화가 창출한 가장 큰 변화는 조직사회의 변화, 교육환경의 변화, 문화생활의 변화를 들 수 있다. 인터넷이 조직사회에 미친 영향은 전통적인 연공서열식 피라미드형 조직구조가 새로운 네트워크형 조직으로 발전하였으며, 노동시장도 장소에 구애받지 않고 이동원격근무(mobile Office)로 발전하는 추세이다. 그리고 교육환경은 가상공간을 통한 다양한 교육정보 접근기회를 확대하고 있으며, 사람들의 사고방식, 생활양식, 가치관의 변화도 수반하고 있다. 반면에 인터넷 사회는 한국사회 전반의 변화와 함께 정보화의 역기능 현상도 다양하고 광범위하게 확산되고 있다. 인터넷이라는 온라인상에서 다양한 주제로 서로 만나고 정보를 교환하는 사이버 공동체(Cyber Community)는 온라인 공간에 한정되는 것이 아니라 현실공간으로 확장되어 나타나고 있으며, 인터넷 중독문제는 개인뿐만 아니라 가정과 사회에도 부정적 영향을 끼치고 있을 뿐만 아니라 안티사이트도 진정한 대안문화로 자리 잡지 못하고 인터넷의 익명성을 이용해 무차별적인 비방과 욕설이 난무한 과도기적 현상을 보이고 있다. 이제 인터넷은 한국사회의 모든 것과 깊은 관련을 맺는 매우 중요한 일부분이 된 것이다. 인터넷은 20세기 공학기술이 성취한 위대한 업적 중의 하나이다. 인터넷은 단순히 정보화 사회를 실현하는 것이 아니라 인간의 삶의 가치, 생활의 편익 등을 증대한다는 믿음 때문이다. 한편 현실은 여러 가지 역기능이 함께 나타나고 있다. '네티즌 윤리강령'까지 선포했지만, 진정한 네티즌 윤리는 강령을 선포했다고 저절로 확립되는 것이 아니다. 네티즌 각자의 실천의지가 있어야 한다. 인류가 새로운 이상향이라고 추구하는 가상사회는 윤리적인 사고와 행동으로 질서를 유지하지 못하면 인류의 밝은 미래는 보장할 길이 없다. 21세기 정보화 사회, 인터넷 사회를 맞이한 우리는 이 세상을 참으로 살기 좋은 세상으로 만들어야 할 고귀한 책무를 안고 있다. 아무리 험한 길, 어려운 과제라 할지라도 그 목표를 잃어서는 안 되며, 그 해답을 얻는 노력을 결코 게을리 해서는 안 된다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between consumer's self - determination psychological needs (autonomy, competence, relevance), influence (personal influence, market influence), and the assets of fair trade products. As a result of the empirical analysis, it was found that among the major psychological needs related to self-determination, the variables other than competence and the perceived influence relations of consumers can be directly formed, and the perceived consumer effectiveness(PCE) has a positive influence on perceived marketplace influence(PMI). It is also found that the perceived influence of consumers(PCE, PMI) has an influence on the consumers' perceived equity of Fair Trade products. The results of this study will provide an opportunity to theoretically explain the gap between consumers' attitudes and behaviors of Fair Trade products, which is a part of ethical consumption, and provide important implications for the establishment of marketing strategies.
