It's vital to establish the competitive comparative advantage as the competitions among global logistics companies have become fierce. The global companies, hence, must innovate their Port Hinterland to hub and spoke in a view of SCM. The Port Hinterland significantly affects its local economy and value added. The task of the Port Hinterland nowadays is to improve its efficiencies by utilizing logistics operations and services. The Korean government has planned to reduce the scale of the Port. The CCR and BCC matrices show that there are nine efficient companies: two companies in Gwangyang Hinterland and five companies in Busan Hinterland, though Masan FTZ was only ranked on the 24th, on the rank of world FTZ. This paper aims at finding the cargo volume necessary for achieving the maximum efficiency. This research proposes an appropriate strategy to keep a certain amount of cargo volume stable and presents the Port Hinterland differentiation strategies of Gwangyang and Busan.

US national research laboratories developed the first Vital Area Identification (VAI) method for the physical protection of nuclear power plants that is based on Event Tree Analysis (ETA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) techniques in 1970s. Then, Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute proposed advanced VAI method that takes advantage of fire and flooding Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) results. In this study, in order to minimize the burden and difficulty of VAI, (1) a set of streamlined VAI rules were developed, and (2) this set of rules was applied to PSA fault tree and event tree at the initial stage of VAI process. This new rule-based VAI method is explained, and its efficiency and correctness are demonstrated throughout this paper. This new rule-based VAI method drastically reduces problem size by (1) performing PSA event tree simplification by applying VAI rules to the PSA event tree, (2) calculating preliminary prevention sets with event tree headings, (3) converting the shortest preliminary prevention set into a sabotage fault tree, and (4) performing usual VAI procedure. Since this new rule-based VAI method drastically reduces VAI problem size, it provides very quick and economical VAI procedure. In spite of an extremely reduced sabotage fault tree, this method generates identical vital areas to those by traditional VAI method. It is strongly recommended that this new rule-based VAI method be applied to the physical protection of nuclear power plants and other complex safety-critical systems such as chemical and military systems.

BMI nozzles in bottom head of the nuclear vessel are one of major components in nuclear power plants. The BMI nozzles have high possibility to generate PWSCC(primary water stress corrosion crack) according to recent foreign case although operation temperature is lower then the upper head of the nuclear vessel. Thus, nondestructive inspection of the BMI nozzles is required. But, inspection of BMI nozzles is not easy since the BMI nozzles placed in high radiated area and inside the nozzles filled with boric acid. Thus, in this study, a TOFD transducer for inspection of BMI and automated scanner system with water were developed. Also, validation of performance of the developed transducer and system are performed using specimens with artificial defects.

Finding the ideal location for your business is one of the most critical and important steps you will have to undertake. Otherwise, done in the wrong way you will only end up paying an expensive cost for an unsuitable location. Therefore to select the perfect location for your business, this study makes a reasonable and simple model for retail shops by calculating occupation population for each store applying Huffs "Probability Theory" to Hypermarket in Seoul. Then this study, based on occupation population, has divided every unit section (dong scale) into 4 market types which represent the state of the competitive markets, including monopoly, oligopoly, competitive, and noncompetitive markets. Consequently, the most reasonable place to locate a new store is where it can take most of the customers, that is, a place which can take non-competitive market as much as possible and is distant far enough from competitive market where competition is severe.

This paper is to classify subregions of Yeongnam region, to realize their core area, and to provide the basis on studying inherent cultural characteristics in Yeongnam region. To do so, I made a overlay human factors of administrative district and dialect with physical factors of drainage basin and climate area. The limit of subregion is the range of possessing environmental factors similar to provincial center. The parcels possessing a equivalent combination of environmental factors are 27, the size of parcel is various from one-city/county to six-city/county. These parcels are classified to six subregions(Andong, Sangju, Kyeongju, Daegu, Kimhae, Jinju). The boundary of subregion is high mountains and large river which are obstacle to communication between subregions, and in case of little obstacle exists transitional zone.

We explored the relationship between the level of change awareness and deployment of software process improvement (SPI) approaches using a competing values framework. To measure awareness level of organization's change, we used DICE framework provides means for predicting the outcome of change management initiatives. The four factors for organizaton's change: duration, integrity, commitment, and effort are evaluated and a score is calculated. The DICE(R) score is used to classify projects into win, worry, or woe zones. In this paper, we apply the DICE(R) score as an independent variable to predict the outcome of a software process improvement. Our results indicated that the Organization have a higher chance of success have the better outcome in software process improvement.

환경기초시설에 대한 투자가 우리나라 총 환경관련 예산의 80%이상을 차지하고 있다는 사실에서도 알 수 있듯이, 수질 폐기물의 관리를 위한 기초시설의 건립과 운영은 환경정책의 가장 중요한 부분인 동시에 대규모의 재원을 필요로 하는 사업이며, 따라서 비용극소화를 위한 많은 노력이 요구된다. 환경기초시설의 설치 운영에 소용되는 비용은 크게 두 부류로 나누어지는데, 설치비와 운영비에는 규모의 경제가 있어서 규모가 큰 시설일수록 평균비용이 감소하는 반면, 수거운반비와 보상비는 규모가 큰 시설일수록 평균비용이 증가한다. 따라서 총비용은 시설규모의 U자형 함수가 될 것이며, 이 논문의 목적은 각 비용요소를 계량화하여 환경기초시설의 적정규모, 즉 총비용을 극소화시키는 시설규모를 도출하기 위한 모형을 제시하는 것이다. 이 논문에서 제시한 모형은 수학적으로 단순하여 현실 문제에 쉽게 적용할 수 있으며, 간단한 컴퓨터 프로그램을 통하여 적정규모를 계산하고 비용분석을 할 수 있다. 이 모형을 우리나라의 소각시설에 적용한 결과 다음과 같은 정책적 시사점들을 얻을 수 있었다. 첫째, 생활폐기물의 수거운반비가 1,500원/톤/km이고 가구들이 폐기물 관리지역내에 고르게 분포되어 있다고 가정할 때에 총소각비용을 최소화하기 위해서는 약 23만 가구당 처리용량이 830톤/일인 소각장을 설치 운영하여야 하며, 이때에 폐기물 단위당 처리비용은 약 100원/kg이다. 둘째, 가구당 폐기물발생량과 인구밀도의 지역간 차이로 인하여 적정규모 역시 지역간 차이가 있으며, 우리나라에서는 도시지역일수록 규모가 큰 시설이 효율적이다. 셋째, 폐기물 처리사업은 오염의 원인과 수익의 주체가 분명하므로 처리에 소요되는 비용은 가계가 부담하여야 하며, 이를 위하여 현재의 쓰레기봉투가격을 인상하여야 한다. 넷째, 현재 폐기물 처리시설의 설치 운영이 공공부문에 의하여 이루어지고 있어 이를 민영화하는 것이 바람직한데, 그 이유는 환경기초시설의 적정규모를 도출함에 있어 핵심사항인 비용에 관한 정보를 관련 분야의 민간부문이 더 많이 가지고 있을 가능성이 높으며, 입찰을 통하여 사업자를 선정할 경우 가장 효율적인 기업에 의한 설치 운영이 가능하기 때문이다. 이를 위하여 쓰레기봉투가격의 인상과 함께, 폐기물의 처리가 행정구역에 연계되어 이루어지고 있는 현재의 제도 역시 폐지되어야 한다.
