In Korea, the System of search and rescue in water have came into force on the basis of the Korea Life Saving and Rescue Act. 1961. But It's a premodern administration law which is not fit for an international system of the search and rescue and become disconnected with reality in Korea. Recently the marine casualties occur frequently in Korea coastal area, therefore, we need to amend the 1961 Act. The amendment which is carried out by the Korea Maritime Police Agency is a provision to receive International convention(SAR, 1979). The amendment of this Act will give a epoch-making change to Korean policy of the life-saving and rescue, security to marine safety and contribution to National positon on system of "Search and Rescue". In this thesis, I propose a development scheme to be conductive to original task on "Search and Rescue" of International Convention in Korea Life Saving and Rescue Act(Amendment, 1994).t(Amendment, 1994).

tWith the development of the third-generation gene scissors, CRISPR-Cas9, concerns are being raised about ethical and social repercussions of the new gene-editing technology. In this situation, this article explores the legislation and interpretation of the positive laws in South Korea. The BioAct does not specify and regulate 'gene editing' itself. However, assuming that genetic editing is used in the process of research and treatment, we can look to the specific details of the regulations for research on humans as well as gene therapy research in order to see how genetic editing is regulated under the BioAct. BioAct differentiates the regulation between (born) humans and embryos etc. and the regulation differ entirely in the manner and scope. Moreover, due to the fact that gene therapy products are regarded as drugs, they fall under different regulations. The Korean Pharmacopoeia Act put stringent sanctions on clinical trials for gene therapy products and the official Notification "Approval and Examination Regulations for Biological Products, etc." by Food and Drug Safety Administration may be applied to gene editing for gene therapy purposes.

Article 1 of the Korea Copyright Act stipulates that the purpose of this Act is to protect the rights of authors and the rights neighboring on them and to promote fair use of works in order to contribute to the improvement and development of culture. Hence, the improvement and development of culture is the final goal of the Copyright Act and should be the essential standard of the interpretation and application of the law. However, most of Korean copyright scholars do not explain the meaning of it and they even assume that protection of the copyright and promotion of fair use themselves are deemed as it. The meaning of the improvement and development of culture should be derived from the Constitution and there is a principle of the nation of culture as one of the basic constitutional principles. Pursuant to the principle of the nation of culture, the improvement and development of culture means maximization of the right of enjoyment from culture by the building of the ecology for the sustainable production and consumption of the works. This should be not only the legislative purpose of the Copyright Act but also the goal of culture policy.

In this article, the Medical Act, the Emergency Medical Act, Act on remedies for injuries from medical malpractice and mediation of medical disputes were reviewed and interpreted based on the Civil Act. In the health and medical field, there are various laws that reflect changes in the medical field due to the development of health and medical technology, and their revision is very frequent. And the legislation has become very complicated. They contradict each other or require interpretation. In this situation, a person must take considerable care not to violate the law. In many cases, specific guidelines or authoritative interpretation are required to apply the law. Even guidelines and authoritative interpretations often conflict with civil law. In this article, errors in the legal text related to health care were found. In addition, it found a case that contradicts the civil law perspective in interpretation. Thus, it was confirmed that civil legal thinking was necessary to legislate, interpret, and apply health care-related laws.

Public library legislation is the essential means of providing for all the citizen in modern society with a standard public library service. We can trace the origin of that back to the Public Libraries Act 1850 in England. This paper is reviewing all the measures concerning public libraries of England since then in order to find out some guidelines for revision of the Korean Library Law enacted in 1963. Although Public Libraries Act 1850 was an output of a series of social reform movement in the 19th century, it established first the provision of public library service su n.0, pported by public funds. However the Act had several restrictions hindering public library service from making progress. These are: 1. Adoptive legislation in nature 2. Limitation of the size of population and rate income 3. Small library authorities 4. Procedure for adoption by public meeting 5. Restrictions on the ways in which rate income might be spent 6. No governmental organization to direct or control for a standardized public library service 7. No cooperative schemes among libraries. Subsequent development was directed largely to removal of those limitations. The present Public Libraries Act 1964 as a model of public library legislation was enacted on the basis of such reports as Kenyon, McColvin, Roberts, and Bourdillon. All but the problem of small library authorities were removed with this new Act. The final object could be achieved by the Local Government Act 1974 which reorganized existing 383 small authorities into new 115 ones the average population of which was 280, 000. Now, McColvin's dream of 30 years could be fulfilled in the late 70's. He argued that the minimum size of population of a viable authority should be 300, 000. Although the effect of the 1964 Act on the development of public library services in England was great, there must be some considerations as to the provisions of public library objective, government funding for library services, free use of library materials to all regardless of residence, and placement of library committee within the authority.

The driver model based on the ACT-R cognitive architecture was developed in order to predict the performance and cognitive workload of a driver operating HVI devices. In the 10 HVI tasks, the predicted performance time and cognitive workload by the ACT-R driver model was well matched and highly correlated with the mean of performance times and subjective workload ratings from 15 participants, respectively. It is strongly proposed that the ACT-R driver model in this study can be applied to evaluate the usability of a new HVI design with less cost in the early stage of system development.

The Professional Engineers Act (PE Act) of Korea reduces the competitiveness of PE, because of the lack of articles regarding guarantee of business scope and regarding continuous education. In foreign countries, after one passes the PE exam, he/she should register at the concerned government agency; in this way, a practical and systematic continuous professional development (CPD), along with management of work experience of PE, is carried out. In this thesis, the Professional Engineers Acts of different countries have been compared and analyzed in order to consolidate international competitiveness of Korean professional engineers. Also, the author of this thesis presented measures to solve the problems of the Korean PE Act.

The evaluation systems on the National Spatial Information Policy(NSIP) has been changed, since the Establishment and Use of the National Geographic Information System Act(NGIS Act, 2000) was abolished and the National Spatial Data Infrastructure Act(NSDI Act, 2009) was enacted. As compared to the NGIS Act, the policy evaluation systems for National Spatial Information are regarded as unified and centralized. However, some argue that the claim of budget and the legal feasibility of the NSIP was weakened. Given the different views on the two laws, this study aims at analyzing the changes in the evaluation system by comparing the NGIS Act and the NSDI Act. A Comparative Analysis framework is employed. The subjects of the comparative analysis are evaluation mechanism, evaluator, evaluation target and range, after-assessment utilization, and agent. In order to improve the effectiveness of the evaluation system, it is recommended that the clarification of evaluation purposes, institutional enhancement for evaluation agency, the development of evaluation indexes, the combination of top-down approach and bottom -up approach, and the increased linkage between budget and evaluation result.
