Language has a social function to communicate information. Linguists have gradually paid their attention to the function of language since the nineteen sixties, especially to the relationship of form, meaning and the function. The relationship could be more clearly grasped through disciyrse-based analysis than through sentence-based analysis. Many researches were centered on the discourse functional notion of topic. In the early 1970's the subject was defined as the grammatiocalized topic the topic as a discrete single constituent of the clause. In the late 1970's several lingusts including Givon suggerted that the topic was not an atomic, disctete entity, and that the clause could have more than one topic. The purpose of the present study is, following Givon, to study grammatical coding devices of topic and to measure the relative topic continuity/discontinuity of participant argu, ents in Korean narratives. By so doing, I would like to shed some light on effective ways of communicating information. The grammatical coding devices analyzed are the following eight structures: zero-anaphora, personal pronous, demonstrative pronouns, names, noun phrases following demonstratives, noun phrases following possessives, definite noun phrases and indefinite referentials. The narrative studied for the count was taken from the KoreanCIA chief's Testiomny:Revolution and Idol by Hyung Wook Kim. It was chosen because it was assumed that Kim's purpose in the novel was to tell a true story, which would not distort the natural use of language for literary effect. The measures taken in the analysis wre those of 'lookback', 'persistence', ambiguity'. The first of these, 'lookback', is a measure of the size of gap between the previous occurrence of a referent and its current occurence in the clause. The meausure of persistence, which is a measure of the speaker's topocal intent, reflects the topic's importance in the discourse. The third measure is a measure of ambiguity. This is necessary for assessing the disruptive effects that other topics within five previous clauses may have on topic identification. The more other topics are present within five previous clauses, the more difficult is the task of correct identification of a topic. The results of the present study show that the humanness of entities is the most powerful factior in topic continutiy in narrative discourse. The semantic roles of human arguments in narrative discourse tend to be agents or experiences. Since agents and experiences have high topicality in discourse, human entities clearly become clausal or discoursal topics. The results also show that the grammatical devices signal varying degrees of topic continuity discontinuity in continuous discourse. The more continuous a topic argument is, the less it is coded. For example, personal pronouns have the most continutiy and indefinite referentials have the least continutiy. The study strongly shows that topic continuity discontinutiy is controlled not only by grammatical devices available in the language but by socio-cultural factors and writer's intentions.

According to recent embodied cognition approach, understanding of actions is not based on abstract symbolic process but based on mental simulation of sensory-motor information related to those actions. As supporting evidence, motor resonance effect is a facilitation/interference effect of motor response in terms of similarity between observed action and concurrent own action. In the current research, we investigated this effect in the situation to perceive a complex social action perception and how it would be modulated by perspectives of construals of the social action scene. For this purpose, we created three kinds of fighting action scenes of two people in terms of body actions of the subject(ie., hitting, stepping, biting), and described them in two perspectives; active and passive. During the experiment, subjects had to verify the congruency of the picture and the description first, and if they are congruent, they had to do two different actions in terms of color of following cues. In the first experiment, subjects' response time for stepping on a pedal and pressing a button were analyzed for measuring motor resonance effect for the foot movement. In the second experiment, voice response time with a microphone and button pressing time were analyzed for the mouth movement motor resonance effect. Results showed the facilitation of the foot movement(in Exp1), and the mouth movement(in Exp2) only when the action scene was described in active perspective. Our results indicate that the motor resonance effect can be occurred during perception of social actions in the real life situation, but it can be also modulated by the perspective of the mental construal of the action event.

The subway is one of the representative urban public transportation systems. Since its being opened in 1974, the Seoul Subway has been continually extended, and new lines are being added in the metropolitan and outskirt areas, even at present. As a result, the numbers of transfer stations and transfer sections have been significantly increased, making the usage of the subway system more and more complicated. In the transfer stations with big floating population and overlapped flows of traffic in the subway, passengers want their movements to be more precise and faster, without taking the wrong trains by mistake. Therefore, the visual information system for the subway inside the stations is extremely important. At the same time, the visual information system is required to be easy to understand and use, even if the passengers do not have previous experience of using the subway. In this research we studied the problems existing in the visual information system which is currently working in the subway system, and suggest the direction of the improvement of the subway service based on our studies. This research was mainly performed at Sindorim Station, one of the busiest stations in Seoul Subway with huge floating population and complex transfer sections. The purpose of this research is the investigation of behavioral and recognitive characteristics of passengers in the transfer sections through preceding research and qualitative analysis, to draw the direction for future improvement of the current system and suggest the improved experience of using the subway system.

This paper describes the characteristics and outline of rules of origin among Korea and USA, EU, ASEAN. The main focus of this paper is to conduct comparative analysis on rules of origin. Rules of origin are used to determine the country of origin of a product for purposes of international trade. There are two common types of rules of origin depending upon application, the preferential and non-preferential rules of origin Non-preferential rules of origin are used to determine the country of origin for certain purposes. The basis for the non-preferential rules originates from the Kyoto convention which states that if a product is wholly obtained or produced completely within one country the product shall be deemed having origin in that country. For a product which has been produced in more than one country, the product shall be determined to have origin in the country where the last substantial transformation took place. To determine exactly what was the last substantial transformation, three general rules are applied : Change of tariff classification(on any level, though 4-digit level is the most common), Value added-rule.(ad-valorem), and Specific process rule. While criteria of wholly obtained or produced in one country is almost similar to those of theses area and countries, in compliance with value percentages of Substantial Transformation, sufficient working or processing, Korea-US FTA adapts 'Regional Value Content', meanwhile Korea-EU FTA adapts 'Import Content' rule. Finally, Korea-US FTA and ASEAN FTA adapt FOB price for the calculation value added, on the other hand Korea-EU FTA adapts EXW price.

우리가 어떠한 상황에서 불안해진다는 것은 다가올 미래에 대해 확실하게 준비할 수 없다는 사실에 근거합니다. 수많은 선각자와 학자들은 모두들 이러한 불확실성으로 인한 위험 요소들을 확실하게 밝히고자하며 이로 인해 우리로 하여금 더욱 과학적으로 상황을 대처하고 극복하게 하려 합니다. 아시아 지역의 호텔관광시장에 대해 이곳에서 논의되는 것은 과거와 현재 그리고 미래를 넘나들며 현재 이 시장에서 벌어지는 새로운 경향을 파악하고 파악된 자료를 통해 도전과 위험요소를 인지케하는 내용들입니다. 과거는 현재의 원인이 될 수 있고 과거의 흔적은 내일의 같은 형태의 현상이 될 수 있다고 보기에 우리는 미래의 시장을 예측하려 할 때 과거를 검증하고 현재를 숙독해야 하는 것입니다. 과거 속에서 우리는 한때 우리 시장의 고객들이 사회적 성공의 표시로 여행을 즐겼으며, 그것이 전쟁 등과 같은 힘든 시절을 보내면서 휴식과 교육을 목표로 여행을 즐기던 시절이 있었고, 이것이 다시 최근에 들어 고객들의 자기충족과 자아실현의 방법으로 여행을 즐기고 있음을 감지할 수 있습니다. 이러한 경향들의 연장선상에서 우리의 호텔시장은 호텔이 고도로 품격화된 개인적인 서비스를 제공하게 될 것이고, 발달된 정보기술력으로 인해 편리하게 자산관리를 할 수 있고, 쉽게 접근이 가능한 투자자본으로 인해 소유주의 형태가 다국적으로 다각화되는 결과를 낳게 될 것이고, 수많은 패턴들이 존재하지만 기술력의 혁신으로 인해 이를 통한 새로운 상품과 서비스의 개발이 가장 두드러지는 시장이 될 것이 분명합니다. 관광시장에서는 크게 두 영역으로 분리해서 본다면, 하나는 새로운 형태의 고객이고 또 하나는 관광이란 것이 거리를 요하는 것이기에 이를 극복하고자 하는 기술력을 동원한 새로운 형태의 관광체험이라 할 수 있습니다. 새로운 형태의 고객은 보다 자유롭고 의사표현이 열려있는 고객이며 이들은 각자의 자아실현과 충족을 위해 끊임없이 새로운 여행 목적지를 찾는 고객이며, 복잡하지 않고 단순한 형태의 상품과 서비스를 요하며 그들은 또한 시작에서 마무리까지 완성된 서비스를 추구하는 고객이 될 것입니다. 거리를 초월하는 기술력의 발달로 고객은 원거리에서 자기자신의 여행 진행 전부를 쉽게 컨트롤 할 수 있게 되고 특히 가상 현실실현에 대한 기술력은 멀리서도 원거리의 여행 체험을 실제와 버금가게, 그리고 현실에서 겪어야 하는 일체의 장애 없이 체득할 수 있게되는 상황을 고객 앞에 내놓게 될 것입니다. 우리는 지금 새로이 중흥하려 노력하는 아시아의 주요 국가의 호텔관광산업을 의미 있게 짚어보고 내일을 함께 준비하고 있습니다. 여기에 논의되어진 이슈가 아니더라도 우리는 그것들을 새로운 시각에서 검증하고 분석하여 새로이 전개되는 미래의 아시아 호텔관광산업을 함께 준비해야 할 줄 믿습니다.

The purpose of this study is to propose the direction of competence of future designers required in the fourth industrial revolution. Designers have played an intermediary role in connecting technology and human beings. Therefore, in the fourth industrial revolution the capacity required to perform the intermediate role as a designer has also changed. The paradigm of design which changed step by step through the literature survey was studied. In addition, priorities were confirmed by comparing past and future designer competencies through prior research on designer competencies. As a result, we confirmed that the planning competence to solve complex problems and the competence of design management to realize them. Based on this research, we hope to be able to recognize the direction of competence as a designer in the fourth industrial revolution and to be a reference material for the follow - up study.

This study is as skyscrapers are becoming increasingly taller, more constructors have decided the height alone cannot be a sufficient differentiator. As a result, atypical architecture is emerging as a new competitive factor. Also, it can be used for symbolizing the economic competitiveness of a country, city, or business through its form. Before the introduction of digital media, there was a discrepancy between the structure and form of a building and correcting this discrepancy required a separate structural medium. Since the late 1980s, however, digitally-based atypical form development began to be used experimentally, and, until the 2000s, it was used mostly for super-tall skyscrapers for offices or for industrial chimneys and communication towers. Since the 2000s, many global brand hotels and commercial and residential buildings have been built as super-tall skyscrapers, which shows the recent trend in architecture that is moving beyond the traditional limits. Complex atypical structure is formed and the formative characteristics of diagonal lines and curved surfaces, which are characteristics of atypical architecture, are created digitally. Therefore, it's goal is necessary to identify a new relationship between the structure and forms. According to the data of Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), 100-story and taller buildings were classified into typical, diagonal, curved, and segment types in order to define formative shapes of super-tall skyscrapers and provide a ground of the design process related to the initial formation of the concept. The purpose of this study was to identify the correlation between different forms for building atypical architectural shapes that are complex and diverse. The study results are presented as follows: Firstly, complex function follows convergence form characteristics. Secondly, fold has inside of architecture with repeat. Thirdly, as curve style which has pure twist, helix twist, and spiral twist. The findings in this study can be used as basic data for classifying and predicting trends of the future super-tall skyscrapers.

Blockchain, which is the basis of virtual assets such as cryptocurrency, is receiving great attention as one of the cornerstone technologies of the 4th industrial revolution. Blockchain is a technology that can fundamentally change our lives not only in finance, but also in politics, logistics, and culture. However, it shows lower-than-expected usability because it is complicated to learn and is continuously being developed. In this study, we tried to investigate whether the Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) of virtual assets can be changed through education on the underlying technology, blockchain. A video-based online experiment was conducted with a total of 103 participants and examined how the type of training(positive, negative) and measurement timing(before, after) affect perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, acceptance, which are TAM variables, and trust and security, which are related to blockchain characteristics. As a result of the experiment, interactions were found in all dependent variables according to the type of education and measurement timing. Specifically, groups that received negative education had no difference in all variables before and after, but it was found that groups that received positive education showed an increase afterwards. Through this, it can be seen that the effect of education based on the anchoring effect is also shown in the intention to use virtual assets using block chain technology, suggesting that the intention to use blockchain related technology can be increased through positive education.

Despite a dramatic increase in the use of smartphones these days, the elderly's smartphone usage rate is relatively low. This is because there are some facts limiting the elderly's access to the smartphones: 1) aging in both physical and cognitive abilities and 2) complicated functions that are hard to see in the phones. In this study, we studied how Korean typography influence the elderly's legibility and extracted proper Korean typography factors that would best suit the elderly when they use the smartphones. As a result of the study and legibility evaluation for the 24 seniors over 65, we could witness the excellence of 13pt font size compared to 11 or 12 and the Serif typeface as being better than San Serif typeface. On the other hand, the space between the letters and lines did not make a big influence on the elderly's readability. From the preference evaluation, there were no differences found between Serif typeface and San Serif typeface. However, a bigger font size was preferred in the order of 13pt, 12pt, and 11pt. There was no difference in preference found regarding the space between the letters and the lines. We expect that proper Korean typography in smartphones could help the elderly in using the smartphones well.

부산에서 북동쪽으로 대략 25km 떨어진 지점에 위치하고 있는 일광광산 부근의 지질은 백악기 화산암ㆍ퇴적암 그리고 이를 관입한 화강암류와 이 암주 내에 발달하는 구리-중석을 함유하고 있는 각력파이프광상으로 이루어져 있다. 일광광산의 화강암류는 거의 타원형으로 felsic한 중앙부와 mafic한 양상의 주변부로 나뉘어지며, 암주 내에 수직적인 원통형의 각력파이프가 광화대를 이루고 있고, 그 주변에는 모암변질대가 발달되어 있다. 각력파이프를 충진하고 있는 vein과 화강암의 중앙부에는 전기석이 풍부하게 산출되고 있다. 일광광산에서 산출되는 전기석은 야외 관찰시 각력파이프 중심에서부터 외곽부쪽으로 전기석의 풍부함이 감소하며 산출형태도 달라진다. 파이프에서 대략반경 150m내에서 전기석은 침상형 의 방사상 모양 내지 rosettes형으로 풍부하게 산출되며, 화강암내의 mafic한 암편을 치환한 형태로 산출되기도 한다. 암주의 중앙부 주변부에서는 거의 미세한 구상형으로 산재되어 나타나고 있다. 전기석은 복잡한 화학식 {(Na, Ca)(Fe, Mg)$_3$(Al, Li)$_{6}$(BO$_3$)$_3$Si$_{6}$O$_{18}$ (OH, F)$_4$}을 갖는 붕산 규산염광물이다. 이러 한 다양한 성분은 마그마의 진화과정, 모암의 특성, 온도, 압력, 성분과 같은 물리ㆍ화학적 성질에 따라 전기석의 성분이 체계적으로 변하기 때문에 모암과 전기석 기원과의 상관관계를 파악할 수 있다. 파이프 부근의 화강암류는 현미 경상에서 전기석이 석류석과 같이 풍부하게 나타나며 장석들은 변질받은 상태로 세리사이트, 녹렴석으로 나타나고, 흑운모와 각섬석은 녹니석화되어 변질된 상태를 보이고 있다. 파이프 중심에서 외곽부로 갈수록 전기석의 함량은 줄어들고 있고 장석들이 알바이트ㆍ칼스베드 쌍정을 보이며, 흑운모가 각섬석보다는 우세하게 나타나고 있다. 전기석은 주상 결정, 자형 내지 반자형의 입자로 다색성을 보이며, 결정 중심에서 가장자리로 갈수록 파란색과 황갈색의 광학적 누대구조를 관찰할 수 있다. 일광광산에서 산출되는 전기석에 대한 현미경 관찰은 열수기원임을 지시하고 있다. 야외조사와 현미경 관찰의 예비조사에 의하면 일광광산의 전기석이 형성된 환경은 다른2가지 화학적인 저장소의 혼합 효과의 결과로 생성되어진 것으로 예상된다. 일광의 화강암류를 만든 마그마는 전기석을 형성할 만큼의 Fe-Mg성분이 충분하지 않았을 것이다. 화강암 내에 흑운모와 각섬석의 결정작용에 의해 마그마의 Fe-Mg성분이 고갈되어지고 이로 인해 그 함량이 감소하며 상대적으로 마그마 내에 남은 붕소(B$_2$O$_3$)는 열수로 용리되고 흑운모, 각섬석과 평형을 유지하며 열수에 남아있게 된다. 잔류용융체에 남은 붕소의 함량은 전기석을 만들기에 충분함에도 불구하고, Fe-Mg 함량이 부족하여 마그마 기원의 전기석 결정을 만들 수가 없다가 광맥이 형성된 시기에 또 다른 열수가 공급되면서 이전의 평형이 깨지고 기존의 흑운모와 같은 염기성 광물이 붕소(B)를 함유한 새로운 열수와 반응하여 전기석을 형성한 것으로 예상한다. 앞으로 전암과 광물에 대해 지화학적 연구를 통해 화강암류와 전기석과의 지화학적 연관성, 주성분 원소와 열수의 특성과의 상관관계, 전기석의 기원(마그마 기원인지 열수기원인지)이 보다 정확하게 파악될 것이다. 마그마 진화에 따른 전기석의 성분변화와 기원을 이용하여 일광광산의 동광화대를 형성한 마그마 계에서 열수계로 이어지는 지질학적 과정을 이해할 수 있을 것이며, 암석 성인론적 지시자로서 어떠한 중요성을 갖는지 논의되어질 수 있다.
