시뮬레이션을 비롯한 많은 다중 에이전트 환경에서는 중앙 집중 훈련 및 분산 수행(centralized training with decentralized execution; CTDE) 방식이 활용되고 있다. CTDE 방식 하에서 중앙 집중 훈련 및 분산 수행 환경에서의 다중 에이전트 학습을 위한 상태 행동 가치 기반(state-action value; Q-value) 다중 에이전트 알고리즘들에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어졌다. 이러한 알고리즘들은 Independent Q-learning (IQL)이라는 강력한 벤치 마크 알고리즘에서 파생되어 다중 에이전트의 공동의 상태 행동 가치의 분해(Decomposition) 문제에 대해 집중적으로 연구되었다. 본 논문에서는 앞선 연구들에 관한 알고리즘들에 대한 분석과 실용적이고 일반적인 도메인에서의 실험 분석을 통해 검증한다.

Purpose: This study examined the relationship between job stress, attributes of health functional food (HFF) selection, and consumption values for information technology (IT) workers, and analyzed the factors influencing the selection of HFF to improve health by making the right choice of HFFs. Methods: Three hundred forty IT workers in Gyeonggi area participated in the study. The participants were divided into low or high job stress group. The differences in participants' general characteristics, attributes of HFF selection, and HFF consumption values were investigated, and the mediating effects of HFF consumption values on the relationship between job stress levels and the HFF selection attributes were analyzed. Results: Job stress levels were high in those IT workers with a length of service < 5 years (p = 0.013). The group with lower job stress levels had a higher tendency to consider the ingredients contained in HFF products (p < 0.001), and their efficacy (p = 0.047). They also showed greater emotional value for a sense of security from consuming HFFs to stay healthy (p = 0.047). The group with higher job stress levels had greater epistemic value in that their choice of HFFs differentiated them from the other workers (p = 0.036). Higher job stress was associated with less consideration of the intrinsic attributes such as ingredients and efficacy of the HFF selection attributes (p = -0.113), emotional value of the HFF consumption values (p = -0.136), and the functional value such as practicality, price, and safety (p = -0.134). The job stress level influenced the intrinsic attributes through the functional and emotional values, demonstrating that the functional and emotional values had appropriate mediating effects on the relationship between job stress levels and intrinsic attributes. Conclusion: Education needs to be provided for workers to relieve job stress and improve the functional and emotional values, which contributes to choosing the appropriate HFFs.

In the aftermath of nation-wide controversy over "conservation vs. development" of the costal wetland in the Saemangeum, Korea could legislate the laws of wetland conservation and costal management in 1998. Since then, the public interest in the costal mudflats and its conservation has increased greatly, but the controversy on the economic value of mutflat wetland and the futher (un)necessity of reclamation) is not yet settled. In the cases of Korea dealt, economic valuation of wetland was performed mainly in the milieu of reclamation(development) vs conservation conflict, or from interest of recreational use. Korean studies used to estimate economic value of development case and conservation case respectively and then tried to compare these two value, as is sometimes done also in other countries. But the scrutiny of the results of these studies leads us to conclude that the revealed wide discrepancy among estimated values, above all other methodological problems, denies any practical applicability to the actual policy use. Benefit transfer as a convenient alternative method of valuation can not be usable either in our cases, because there is too few reliable estimated economic values of mudflat wetlands.

This study estimated a wide range of stochastic process models using the frameworks of CKLS (1992) and Nowman and Wang (2001). For empirical analysis, the GMM estimation procedure is adopted for the monthly Brent crude oil prices from January 1996 to January 2005. Using the simulated price series, European call option premiums were calculated and compared each other. The empirical results suggest that the crude oil price has a strong dependency of volatility on the price level. Contrary to the results of previous related studies, it shows a weak tendency of mean reversion. In addition, the models provide different implications for pricing derivatives on crude oil.

The study objective was to understand the effects of self-efficacy and occupational value on the major satisfaction of pre-service childcare teachers. A questionnaire survey was conducted targeting 281 pre-service childcare teachers in A city. In the study results, first, pre-service childcare teachers highly perceived the self-regulatory efficacy and confidence of self-efficacy, the intrinsic value of occupational value, and the general satisfaction and perception satisfaction of major satisfaction. Second, there were statistically significant correlations between self-efficacy, occupational value, and major satisfaction of pre-service childcare teachers. Third, the self-efficacy and occupational value of pre-service childcare teachers had positive effects on the major satisfaction. Based on these study results, there should be more diverse research for the formation of proper self-efficacy and correct occupational value, so that students majoring in childcare could perceive the importance of major satisfaction and also perform their childcare jobs with high-quality.

Internet of Things (IoT) is considered to be the next wave of Information Technology transformation after the Internet has changed the process of doing business. Since the domain of IoT ranging from the sensor technology to service to the users is wide, the structure of the research domain is not delineated clearly. To do that we suggest to use the Technology Stack Model proposed by Porter et al.(2014) to measure the maturity level of IoT in organizations. Based on the Stack Model, for the general understandings of IoT, we do keyword analyses on the academic papers whose major research issue is IoT. It is found that the current status of IoT application from the perspectives of cloud and big data analytics is not active, meaning that the real value of IoT has not been realized. We also examine the cases which deal with the part of cloud process which is crucial for value accrual. Based on these findings, we suggest the future direction of IoT research. We also propose that IT is to value chain what IoT is to the Stack Model to derive value in organizations.

The study examined the impact of medical servicescape, human services, and effects on perceived value and customer satisfaction. From July 1, 2016 to August 31, 2016, a total of 300 outpatients visiting the university hospital and general hospital in Ulsan area participated the study. As a result, the general features of the Servicescape were more important to the aged and the higher the academic background, the higher the scores of Human Service and perceived value were revealed. There was a positive correlation between the service schedule of the medical institution, human service, perceived value, and customer satisfaction. And the factors affecting customer satisfaction were in order of human service (${\beta}=0.382$), perceived value (${\beta}=0.376$). The service scapegoats and personal services offered by customers visiting healthcare providers play an important role in understanding the internal health and needs of customers, and this research results will serve as a basic material for strengthening the competitiveness of medical institutions.

아리스토텔레스의 논리학은 그 도구적, 방법론적 성격 때문에 보통 "organon"이라고 불린다. 많은 아리스토텔레스 연구자들은, 그의 논리학 이론들이 그가 손댄 여러 분야의 연구에서 정밀 도구 구실을 하는지를 밝히는 데 몰두해 왔다. 지난 30년 넘는 세월 동안 아리스토텔레스 연구를 이 끌어왔던 논의 가운데 하나인, "genos"와 "eidos"의 쓰임에 논의도 바로 그런 연구 전통에 잇닿아 있다. 이 논의는 요즘 일단락된 것으로 받아들여지고 있다. 아리스토텔레스의 논리학에 나오는, 게노스와 에이도스에 의한 분류는 그의 생물학 연구에서는 별 가치가 없다는 것이 일반적인 의견이다. 생물학 연구에서는 문제의 두 개념이 논리학에서처럼 "유"와 "종"의 뜻으로 쓰이는 것이 아니라 상대적인 개념으로 쓰이며, 그렇기 때문에 생물 분류와 무관하다는 말이다. 하지만 문제의 두 개념들이 등장하는 구절들을 문헌학적인 방법을 써서 분석해 보면, 이런 일반적인 의견은 별 근거가 없는 것으로 드러난다: 생물학에서 eidos는 개별자들을 포함하는 종을 가리키는 개념으로, 절대적으로 쓰인다. genos의 경우는 그 쓰임이 좀 더 복잡하지만, 아리스토텔레스가 생물학에서 내세우는 생물의 형태론적 구 분과 관련해서 쓰일 때는 언제나 "유"를 뜻한다. 그런 점에서 genos와 eidos는 본질적으로 생물 분류에 쓰인 개념들이다. 이런 사실은 곧 아리스토텔레스의 논리학이 그의 생물학 연구에서 유용한 도구로서 쓰임을 보여주는 하나의 증거이다.

산업이 발전함에 따라 연마 후의 요구 정밀도도 더욱 높아지고 있다. 하지만 일반적인 기계 가공으로는 연마하기 힘든 부위가 아직 너무 많은 것이 현실이다. 곡관부, 관내부, 가공물 사이에 있는 틈새부 등이 그 예이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 일반적인 기계 가공으로 연마하기 어려운 틈새부의 연마를 하기 위한 기본적인 자기 연마 특성을 관찰 하고자 하는 것이다. 본 연구에서 사용하는 Al은 Al-Mg합금으로 비열처리 5xxx계열이다. 이 합금은 고강도를 가지고 있으면서, 해수에 대한 내식성이 우수하여 널리 이용되는 금속이다. 본 연구에서 사용되는 실험 장치는 두개의 극(N-S) 사이에 연마 입자를 투입하여 브릿지를 형성한다. 이 브릿지 사이를 Al합금이 두개의 서버 모터에 의해 상대적인 운동을 하게 한다. 연마는 이러한 상대 운동을 이용하는 원리이다. 본 연구에서 이루어지는 실험은 연마 입자의 성분비와 양, 그리고 가공시간 등의 변수를 이용하여 가장 우수한 연마 조건을 선택하고자 한다. 차후 연구 과제는 본 연구에서 얻어지는 연마 특성을 이용하여 두 개의 평판 혹은 어려 개의 Al평판의 틈 즉, 일반적인 기계 가공으로 연마하기 힘든 부위의 연마에 적용하여 그 특성을 알아보고, 일선 산업 현장에 응용 가치를 알아보고자 한다.
