As a scheme to efficiently reduce the effects of multipath fading in next generation wireless communication systems, cooperative communication systems have recently come into the spotlight. Since these cooperative communication systems use cooperative relays with diverse fading coefficients to transmit information, having all relays participate in cooperative communication may result in unnecessary waste of resources, and thus relay selection schemes are required to efficiently use wireless resources. In this paper, we propose an efficient relay selection scheme through self-learning in cooperative wireless networks using Q-learning algorithm. In this scheme, we define states, actions and two rewards to achieve good SER (Symbol Error Rate) performance, while selecting a small number of cooperative relays. When these parameters are well-defined, we can obtain good performance. For demonstrating the superiority of the proposed Q-learning, We compared the proposed scheme with Q-learning and a relay selection scheme with a mathematical analysis. The simulation results show that, compared to a scheme that obtains optimum relays through a mathematical analysis, the proposed scheme uses resources efficiently by using smaller numbers of relays with comparable SER performance. According to these simulation results, the proposed scheme can be considered as a good attempt for future wireless communication.

In this paper, the graphic simulation system Is presented which supports the determination of efficient multi-robot motions during cooperation. For the construction of the simulation software for multi robot motions, two problems are described. First problem is that all the robot motions must be determined using both the desired object motions and the holonomic constraints with the object. To find the robot motions combined with the various object motion path, the robot motions are derived from the desired object path instead of a master robot path. There ore, robot motions can be easily modifiable with #he various object motions. This type of motion determination Is different from that of the master-slaves method using the master robot motions.

In this paper, we propose an Entropy-based Cooperative-Aided Routing Protocol (ECARP) in Mobile Ad-hoc fireless Sensor Networks (MAWSN). The main contributions and features of this paper are as follows. First, the entropy-based cooperative routing protocol which is based on node mobility is proposed for supporting stable routing route construction. Second, cooperative data transmission method is used for improving data transmission ratio with the improved SNR. Third, we consider a realistic approach, in the points of view of the MAWSN, based on mobile sensor nodes as well as fixed sensor nodes in sensor fields while the conventional research for sensor networks focus on mainly fixed sensor nodes. The performance evaluation of the proposed routing protocol is performed via simulation and analysis.

먼저 한국의 친환경농업과 유기농업이 놀라울 정도로 발전한데 대해 커다란 존경을 표한다. 특히 한국 유기농업의 본산지라고 할 수 있는 양평에서 이번 학회가 개최된 것은 큰 의미가 있다. 양평군이 이처럼 친환경농업을 발전시킬 수 있었던 것은 도시의 소비자들과 농민들이 서로 협력하여 이루어진 결과라고 들고 있다. 일본의 농민들과 소비자들은 한국의 경험으로부터 많은 것을 배울 수 있으리라 믿는다. 한일 양국은 많은 면에서 공통점을 지니고 있기 때문에 친환경농업과 유기농업 발전을 위해 우리의 지식과 경험을 서로 교환하고 싶다. 나는 이 논문에서 일본이 유기농업과 친환경농업을 어떻게 발전시켜왔으며 공식적인 유기규격을 제정하기 위하여 어떻게 노력하고 있는지를 소개하고자 한다. 그리고 앞으로 유기농업과 친환경농업 발전을 위하여 어떠한 노력이 필요한지 같이 생각해보는 시간을 갖고자 한다.

For the escape from a maze, the cooperative method by robot swarm was proposed in this paper. The robots can freely move by collecting essential data and making a decision in the use of sensors; however, a central control system is required to organize all robots for the escape from the maze. The robots explore new mazes and then send the information to the system for analyzing and mapping the escaping route. Three issues were considered as follows for the effective escape by multiple robots from the mazes in this paper. In the first, the mazes began to divide and secondly, dead-ends should be blocked. Finally, after the first arrivals at the destination, a shortcut should be provided for rapid escaping from the maze. The parallel-escape algorithms were applied to the different size of mazes, so that robot swarm can effectively get away the mazes.

In today's world, the ability to adapt to the rapidly changing environment is fundamental to the survival and success of any organizations. This is particularly true for the Korean retailing industry which is in the throe of sweeping developments. Against the backdrop of an increasing importance of the environmental factors, it is imperative to look into what efforts are required of corporate enterprises in order to achieve successful long-term partnerships between and among the parties involved in the retail value chain. In spite of the critical importance of the need to understand the environmental factors and their influences on the retail value chain, a serious theoretical and empirical study into this subject has never been conducted. Moreover, previous research has overlooked the various mechanisms influencing the value chain in terms of ,control strategy' and 'control structure'. The purpose of this study is to investigate the direct and indirect modes of influences environmental dynamism exerts on opportunism, one of important relationship factors. This study particularly delves into the indirect modes of influence in terms of control strategy (control mechanism) and control structure (bureaucratic structuring). To this end, a survey research has been conducted of 200 suppliers in business relationships with Korean hypermarket retailers. The survey results show that environmental dynamism has a positive correlation with the opportunism of suppliers. In addition, the control mechanisms such as monitoring and incentives employed by retailers, in turn, have an indirect influence on the opportunism of suppliers. In other words, the monitoring of retailers has a positive correlation with the opportunism of suppliers, while the use of bureaucratic structuring has a negative correlation with opportunism. This study discusses how both retailers and their suppliers should respond to the domestic retail business environment with highly dynamic characteristics, in order to achieve a long-term win-win partnership with one another. It also presents ideas to retailers with regard to what kinds of management strategies and management efforts required to effectively control the opportunism of suppliers.

This study developed and applied the 'field-university-government cooperation oriented supervision program' for child-care centers. A draft of the 'field-university-government cooperation oriented supervision program' was drawn up from the Delpi method with a panel consisting of experts, and from teachers's perception on it's adequacy. And then it was applied to A child-care center. Participating subjects consisted of a panel of 20 experts, 153 child care center teachers and 1 director and 4 teachers in child care centers, 1 professor in an university. The step by step results of the study are 1) the developed draft of the 'field-university-government cooperation oriented supervision program', included two categories and consisted of a total 63 items; 2) when the program was applied, participant' responses through the supervision was summarized as 2 key words, 'new attempt vs limits of unprepared collaboration', 'confusion and further possibility'. In conclusion, this program showed both possibility and limitations.

The POSCO Outsourcing Partners(POSOP) consisted of 59 companies plays an important role in creating jobs in Gwangyang City of Jeonnam Province, the representative steel city of Korea. However POSOP are suffering from a job shortage. The purpose of this study is to analyze the mismatch between job-seekers and job-openers in relation to employment in Gwangyang City. As a result of the job-mismatch analysis of nine factors, there was a clear mismatch in recognition of suppliers, access to corporate and employment information, employment information acquisition path, and employment preference factors. However, there was no mismatch in the factors of employment avoidance and difficulty in the job-seeking and recruitment process. As solutions to the mismatch, it proposes to redefine the role of POPOS, promote capacity building projects for labor-management co-prosperity and cooperation, and gradually promote related projects in connection with the master plan related a comprehensive plan for youth jobs.
