The Principle objective of this paper is to introduce a systematic approach to identifying similar container ports in Asia. For this, it analyses data on port facilities, port facility availability, port service level total container throughput, and economic index, by using Multidimentional Scaling (MDS) method. Based on the analysis it identifies five groupings of similar container ports in Asia within which Port comparison can be justifiably made, evaluates a present position of five groupings on the basis of factors used to compare container ports in Asia ; and finally proposes policy implications for operation efficiency of Pusan container port in comparison with Kaohsiung Port. The major implication is that both the Kaosuing and the Pusan port have to strengthen port facility to attract more traffic, and particularly, Pusan Port has to reinforce the number of berth, total length of berth. and yard areas.

Validation of quercetin as a marker compound in the standardization of Changnyeong onion extract developed for functional health food was attempted by analytical method. The specificity was satisfied with retention time and photo diode array (PDA) spectrum by analysis of quercetin using HPLC and comparison with standard compound. It showed a high linearity in the calibration curve as coefficient of correlation ($R^2$) of 0.9986, and the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were 0.2 mg/L and 0.5 mg/L, respectively. Recovery rate test with quercetin concentration of 0.05, 0.075 and 0.1 mg/mL was revealed in the high range of 82.36~95.26%, 82.70~98.24% and 87.91~95.11%, respectively. The intra-day and inter-day precision in quercetin for Changnyeong onion extracts was 0.10~3.28% and 0.96~5.79%, respectively. Therefore, application of quercetin was validated in analytical method as a marker compound in Changnyeong onion extracts.

Mountain watersheds are a lot of problems about soil erosion because of frequent wildfire occurrence. Runoff and soil erosion caused by the rain on a hillslope after wildfire are dependent on cover factor. And these has been a decrease by the cover factor recovery following time passage. The present paper defines the dynamic sensitivity of runoff and soil erosion that is the rate of runoff volume and soil erosion weight to rainfall energy and analyzes characteristics of the sensitivity for variation of cover factor, In according to the correlation analysis between other parameters and sensitivities, the sensitivity is the most dependent on the cover factor and the relation is exponential. The sensitivities after wildfire have suitable relation with treatment method for the mitigation of burnt forest and wildfire intensity. It was confirmed that the variation of soil erosion sensitivities come upon the range of stability in 5 years after wildfire.

This study aims to assess vulnerability in urban thermal environments of Seoul by using indicators frequently used in previous studies as well as effective indicators for spatial planning like urban and environmental planning. For this purpose, fifteen indicators that influence urban thermal environments such as heat waves, urban heat island effects, and urban micro-climates were identified based on literature reviews. Indicators for presenting urban structure and spatial properties were included; for example, building volume as 'exposure to climate', buildings completed before 1980 as 'sensitivity', and green space areas as 'adaptive capacity'. Among them, twelve indicators were applied to assess vulnerability in urban thermal environments of Seoul by using a GIS spatial analysis combined with fuzzy logic. The results show that the Gangnam area is identified as more vulnerable to a heat environment as compared to the Gangbuk area. In the Gangnam area, Seocho-gu, Gangnam-gu, Dongjak-gu, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Gangseo-gu were relatively high in vulnerability, while Dongdaemun-gu, Gangbuk-gu, Gwangjin-gu, Jungrang-gu were relatively high in the Gangbuk area. Gwanak-gu, Dobong-gu, Eunpyeong-gu, and Nowon-gu, which include forested areas, have low vulnerability in the sectors of 'exposure to climate' and 'sensitivity' due to the impact of Gwanaksan and Bukhansan. However, some areas with high vulnerability like Seocho-gu and Gangnam-gu may have lower vulnerability if the indicator 'status of air conditioning' from the sector of 'adaptive capacity' is used. This study could support the establishment of a practicable thermal environment policy and spatial planning to reduce heat-related risks in the field of urban and environmental planning.

This study is about setting the weighed value of evaluation items for cultural tourism development project using AHP and it analyzed the cultural and ecological tourism infrastructure project in three cultural areas of Andong City. As a result of examining the reliability of evaluation items, it turned out to be 0.9, an appropriate level. In the analysis of weighed value, the items valued highly were in the order of validity of the plan, economic validity, validity of the policy. As for the detailed indices for the three that showed the highest weighed value, for validity of the plan, distinction of contents; for validity of the policy, compatibility of regional characteristics; for economic validity, sustainability were given high values. In the end, it could be concluded that as the cultural and ecological tourism infrastructure project in three cultural areas was delayed a lot more than previously planned, in order to flexibly respond to changing environment, it would be desirable to change parts of the previous plan before pushing ahead with it.

While six sigma project management systems have been widely used as a knowledge management systems, no one has proposed an empirical explanation for impacts of project management systems on project performance. This study proposes a structural equation model of the project management system that relates learning/growth, internal growth, customer performance, and financial effects based on six sigma project performance. The relationships are investigated using data collected from a sample of green and black belts. The results indicate that there are a causal relationship with use of project management and learning/growth and internal process, internal process and customer performance, and customer and financial performance. However, there is no relationship between internal process and financial effects. The results suggest that six sigma project system could effectively be implemented as a knowledge management system to improve six sigma performance of green an black belts. This study also compares index of SEM's model fit of research model and that of alternative models for further analysis. The result shows that index of research model of index is better than that of alternative model.

Based on basic studies on the current status index of BF certification application for school facilities according to the BF certification implementation, this study sought to improve the direction of the different BF certification evaluation indexes for school facilities by investigating and analyzing the status of BF Reservation Certification for elementary schools. A comparative analysis of the status and evaluation indexes of 30 elementary schools in the Gyeongsang region that included indicators of external and internal facilities, sanitary facilities, guidance facilities, and other facilities indicated that school facilities are insufficient to discriminate based on criteria and thus need to be updated for accurate grading. For school facilities that are open for anyone to use, quality improvement should be induced by improving standards and adjusting points for items that earn middle and lower grades.

This study was carried out to find optimal rice varieties and selection index for sushi. The suitability tests about appearance and palatability were conducted by 31 professional sushi chefs and the physicochemical and pasting properties of the selected 7 rice varieties (Koshihikari, Dami, Deuraechan, Boramchan, Juanbyeo, Sindongjin and Hopum) of milled and cooked rice were evaluated. According to the adaptability for sushi shape and taste of rice, Hopum and Sindongjin showed more suitable appearance and taste than others. Also, they showed remarkable pasting properties similar to Koshihikari which is widely known as a suitable for sushi. In the relationship between suitability and pasting properties for sushi, peak viscosity and breakdown viscosity showed highly positive correlation, and setback viscosity showed negative correlation. These results suggest that pasting properties can be applied to select the suitable varieties for sushi.

This paper analyzes the characteristics of change in economic indicators logistics business performance indicators in Japan over the past decade. We compare the differences in management performance of groups related to logistics business strategy. This is because we want to show that the logistics business strategy is reflected in the management performance. Research methods include correlation analysis, crossover analysis, and variance analysis. The main results are as follows. First, logistic companies' sales are highly correlated with economic indicators such as GDP, trade value, and stock price. Second, there is a correlation between the business sectors and the proportion of tangible assets. It is understood that different business strategies are appropriate for each industry and each period. Third, the effects of business strategy variables on business performance variables were significant. In particular, the interaction effect of three variables showed a difference in the effect on the yield. The results of this study provide a better understanding of how logistics companies achieve a high performance in the changing economic environment over the past decade.
