Recently, with the US protection trade trend, South Korea 's exports to the US have shrunk and the need to pioneer emerging markets in Eurasia has increased. Due to the bankruptcy of Hanjin Shipping, a large Korean national shipping company, the necessity of securing transportation that can replace the Asian - European shipping route has emerged. Moreover, as the international trade and logistics environment is rapidly changing due to the spread of electronic commerce, it is time to prepare for the environment where IT technology is applied to international logistics activities. Therefore, this study was carried out to establish information strategy of Eurasia logistics information sharing platform from Korean perspective through comparison of logistics information level of Eurasian countries. This study aims at standardization direction for supporting logistics activities between Eurasian countries, providing customs clearance and logistics services without interruption, providing information for expanding business of trade companies, and building information linkage infrastructure for expanding cooperation between logistics companies across countries. Through this study, it is expected that logistics activities through information sharing among countries will be actively carried out.

The level of ICT in the country affects economic performance as a basic infrastructure that has a significant impact on the competitiveness of the country. With the proliferation of globalization, ICT-related economic activities such as electronic trade are becoming more active, and the importance of ICT in the country is increasing. This study sought to analyze the impact of ICT level on the economic performance of the nation by subdividing it into three dimensions: accessibility, usage, and utilization skill. In particular, we sought to find ways to effectively resolve the digital divide between developed and developing countries by analyzing the difference in economic impact of ICT level. Furthermore, we tried to verify whether the government regulation and firm's nature of competitive advantage in the international markets play a moderating role in the economic impacts of ICT in the country. As a result of panel analysis with data collected from ITU, WEF and World bank national ICT level has consistently significant influence on economic growth in terms of access and usage. In addition, it was confirmed that the competitive advantage of companies in developed countries and the government regulation in developing countries have a significant moderating effect on the relationship between ICT level and economic growth.

RFID technology, as one contact-less identification technology with using electronic tag, is the field where its multiple researches have been studied. Especially, in the field of supply chain management, when it is necessary to identify a lot of objects by real-time, performance of anti-collision algorithm for multiple tag identification has an effect on performance of entire system. GEN2 is global, open, interoperability protocol for UHF RFID system, the active researches and developments are processed about it. In this paper, we introduce an anti-collision algorithm based on Slotted-ALOHA for GEN2 protocol, focus on estimating number of tags and setting number of slots and review the previous works. We propose new scheme that can estimate number of tags efficiently, and define system efficiency newly when it's used in setting number of slots. We also present result of compare and analysis with previous scheme through simulation. The proposed scheme of estimating number of tags is easy to implement, number of tags which is less than 4 times of number of slots can estimate tags efficiently, we also proved that identification efficiency based on weighted-slot distinguished with definition of previous slot efficiency can improve system efficiency.

In this paper, we have analyzed the cost structure of the Korean manufacturing industry in relation to the central government's environmental investment(CGEI below) by applying translog variable cost function. Important findings are as follows. First, sufficiency degree of CGEI of 0.7230, less than optimal level of 1, causes production inefficiency. Therefore, central government should forward a strategy to raise CGEI to meet appropriate standards. In addition, inspite of the deficiency of CGEI, shadow priceis lower than market price due to q-value of 0.9572, yielding unfavorable conditions for CGEI. However, CGEI brings about increase in output, variable cost saving, and economies of scale of firms. Second, by comparing this study with an existing study(2010), we have discovered the following facts. In both studies, we find that there are deficiency of investment, unfavorable conditions in investment, economies of scale, and output increase due to investment. However, the current study has found that, CGEI, which shows efficiency by positive(+) shadow price, saves variable cost. Therefore, firms suffer from production inefficiency due to variable cost caused by a shortage of efficient CGEI. Moreover, the previous study conducted in 2010 found that investment in prevention of environmental pollution(IPEP below), which indicates inefficiency by negative(-) shadow price, cannot reduce variable cost. In such circumstances, firms yield abnormal production efficiency based on variable cost savings caused by inefficient IPEP. For this reason, firms should raise IPEP to optimal level to reduce IPEP inefficiency to achieve production efficiency by reducing variable cost.

Although the global coffee market is growing every year and the demand for coffee wrapping paper is increasing accordingly, research on the effect of PE material and PP material on the coffee aroma used in the sealant layer, which will directly contact the product, is lacking. In this study, we studied the change of aroma patterns and flavor materials by adding coffee to PP and PE pouches. In addition, we observed changes in aroma patterns depending on the temperature and the presence of the deoxidizer. As a result, it was found that the PP type packaging material was slightly better than the PE type packaging material, but the performance was hardly changed by the material. Rather, the change in the aroma pattern due to temperature was dominant rather than the material. It is ideal that refrigerated distribution ($4^{\circ}C$) is the best storage temperature and sales are done within a short period of time. Among the indicators, pyridine was the most suitable material to study and there are many data about pyridine. Therefore, it is expected that the results can be derived by using pyridine.

As the need for next-generation flexible electronics grows, novel materials and technologies that can replace conventional indium tin oxide (ITO) for transparent electrodes have been of great interest. Among them, a conducting polymer, especially poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) : poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT : PSS) is one of the most promising candidates because it is mechanically flexible, inexpensive, and capable of being processed in solution. Currently, there are a lot of research efforts on enhancing its electrical conductivity to the level of ITO or metal electrodes through chemical and/or physical processing. In this review article, we present various additives and pre-/post-deposition processing methods for improving the electrical conductivity of PEDOT : PSS. Some of representative reports are also introduced, which demonstrated the use of conductivity-enhanced PEDOT : PSS as transparent electrodes in electronics and energy conversion.

최근 디스플레이, 태양전지 그리고 touch screen panels 등 optoelectronic 장치의 시장이 성장함에 따라 투명전극의 수요가 증가하고 있다. Indium tin oxide (ITO)의 좋은 특성 때문에 주로 투명전극에 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 화학적 안정성이 떨어지고, 휘어질 때 특성저하가 심하여 금속나노와이어, 탄소나노튜브, 전도성폴리머, 그리고 그래핀 등의 다른 투명전극의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서 그래핀은 높은 전자 이동도(200000 cm2v-1s-1)와 휘어져도 전기적 크게 변하지 않는 특성 때문에 유망한 투명 전도성 전극 (Transparent Conductive Electrodes, TCEs)으로 연구되어왔다. 또한 다양한 속성 가운데, 높은 광 투과성은 그래핀의 가장 큰 장점이다 [1]. 최근, 화학 기상 증착 (Chemical Vapor Deposition, CVD) 등 다양한 제조 방법이 대량 생산을 위해 개발되었다. 그러나 이 방법은 비용이 많이 들며, 과정이 상당히 복잡하고 높은 온도 (${\sim}1000^{\circ}C$)를 필요로 한다. 따라서 용매 기반의 환원된 그래핀 산화물(Reduced Graphene Oxides, RGOs)이 최근 주목 받고 있다. 그러나 RGOs의 면저항이 높아 전극으로서 사용이 제한된다. 따라서 전기적 특성을 향상시키는 방법으로 단일 벽 탄소 나노튜브 (Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes, SWNTs)를 혼합하거나 화학적 도핑을 통하여 면저항을 크게 향상시키는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 이런 화학적 도핑의 경우 박막이 공기 중에 직접 산소나 습기와 반응하여 전기적 특성이 저하되는 문제점을 가지고 있다 [2]. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 AuCl3을 도핑한 박막에 내열성 및 내광성 등의 화학적 안정성이 뛰어난 PEDOT:PSS를 코팅하여 필름의 공기중의 노출을 막아 줌으로써 도핑의 안전성 및 전기적 특성을 최적화하였다. 본 연구에서는 간단한 dip-coating방법을 사용하여 4개의 RGO/SWNTs 박막을 흡착하였다. 다음으로 AuCl3를 도핑하여 면저항 $4.909K{\Omega}$, $4.381K{\Omega}$인 두 개의 샘플의 시간과 온도에 따른 면저항의 변화를 확인하였다. 그리고 필름의 도핑 안전성을 향상 시키기 위해 AuCl3를 도핑한 필름 위에 전도성 폴리머 PEDOT:PSS 코팅하여 면저항 $886.1{\Omega}$, $837.5{\Omega}$인 두 개의 샘플의 시간과 온도에 따른 면저항의 변화를 확인하였다. AuCl3 도핑된 필름의 경우 공기 중에 150시간 노출 시 72%의 면저항 증가가 발생하였지만 PEDOT:PSS가 코팅된 필름의 경우 5%의 면저항 증가가 나타나 확연한 차이를 보였다. 또한 AuCl3 도핑한 필름의 경우 $150^{\circ}C$에서 60시간동안 공기중에 노출되었을 때 525%의 면저항 증가가 발생하였지만 PEDOT:PSS가 코팅된 필름의 경우 58%의 면저항 증가를 나타내었다. 이것은 PEDOT:PSS가 passivation역할을 하여 필름이 공기에 노출된 부분을 막아주어 도핑된 필름의 면저항의 변화를 줄여 주었음을 알 수 있다.

For the next two decades the civil aviation industry is expected to grow. Both Airbus and Boeing predict a delivery of almost 20,000 new Large Civil Aircraft (LCA). LCA is defined as a large civil jet aircraft with 100 seats or more. Airbus offers the Superjumbo, A380 (>555 seats), while Boeing presents the Dreamliner, B787 (200 – 300 seats). Their philosophies are very different. In the wake of B787, Airbus intends to offer a new aircraft, A350, as the competitor against B787, with the same engines developed for B787. The U.S. government pushed by Boeing, on the day of October 6, 2004, filed a suit against Airbus for wrongful subsidy to the World Trade Organization (WTO). A brief overview is given on the LCA development status in the world commercial aircraft market. Since there have been little changes in engine and avionics manufacturers in the LCA industry, the airframe area only is the object of this study. An analysis is carried out to find out the differences in development and marketing strategies of two major LCA manufacturers, Airbus and Boeing. The authors predict that Boeing will recapture its No. 1 position soon, while the leading edge in technology may be slipped away from Boeing.

The purpose of this thesis is, first to present the spatial division of labor in Korea and its mechanism, and second, to elucidate the organic integral relation between local labor market and local community by studing the mechanism that the spatial division of labor is projected into the individual lacal labor marker, and reproduction of labor force process in this local labor market. According to this purpose, the theoretical frame of this analysis is done, the positive analysis is made and Kumi is choosed as its analysis case area. The main data is from 'Survey Report on Manufacturing Idustry Wage Conditions' published by Minimum Wage Council, Ministry of Labour and from the questionnaires and interview on textile industry and electric electronics industry firms in Kumi Export Industrial Estate. The following are the results of this study. 1. The mechanism of spatial division of labor in Korea, seen through the employment structure index, is accelerating the regional discrimination by fixing the regional hierarchisation between Seoul (or Seoul Metropolitan Area as expanded Seoul) and other areas. But it is also developing highly the regional employment structure at the level of technical division of labor, since the spatial division of labor in Korea is leaded by large firms and influenced by the policy for regional development. 2. Local labor market is formed in Kumi area and its delimitation is Kumi city. The employment structure of Kumi local labor market is occupying lower hierarchy division at management hierachical level and occupying upper hierarchy division at the level of technical division of labor, and brand plants of large firs are determinating and dominating this emplogment structure. These bdranch plants of large firs are forming more favorable and stabel labor marker than locally controlled ploants in Kumi local labor market. But the reproduction of labor force process in Kumi local labor market is not fully carried out and leaked into central city, therefore Kumi is now becoming an unstable local community, suffering from large movement of population. This is because Kumi local labor market is found not for itself, but by the state policy and externally controlled plants of large firms, and therefore no potentiality to control and to absorb the exterior influences is built in Kumi local labor market. 3. The case firms A, B have spatial division of labor between decision-making function and production function, and between upper management hierachical labor force and lower management hierachical labor force in internal labor market.
