과학기술의 사회적 파급력이 갈수록 높아지고 있는 현대에 기술영향평가가 갖는 의미는 작지 않다. 특히 행정부에 의하여 제도화되어 수행되는 우리나라의 공식적 기술영향평가는 그 결과를 직접 과학기술 정책에 반영하도록 되어 있기 때문에 과학기술에 의한 부정적 효과나 사회적 논란에 미리 대비할 수 있게 해주는 장치가 된다. 사회적 평가를 중요시하는 기술영향평가 자체의 특징이나 매년 한 개 정도의 기술만을 대상으로 하는 제도적 기술영향평가의 운영 형태, 기술의 특징에 따라서 결정되는 평가의 내용 및 방법 등을 고려했을 때 대상기술의 선정은 다양한 관점을 고려하여 신중하게 이뤄져야 할 것이다. 그러나 지금까지 진행된 기술영향평가에서 대상기술의 선정 방식은 다양한 의견을 반영하지 못 하거나, 기술영향평가에 대한 이해보다는 정성적 토론 및 투표에 의하여 도출되는 경우가 많았다. 이 논문에서는 요인분석을 통하여 기술영향평가의 대상기술을 선정함에 있어 고려해야 할 지표들을 개발하였다. 개발된 지표는 사회적 합의의 필요성, 사회/문화적 파급효과 등 5가지로 구성되어 있으며, 각 지표들에 대한 가중치 역시 AHP 방법을 이용하여 도출하였다. 개발된 지표와 가중치를 이용하여 실제 어떻게 적용될 수 있는지를 예시를 통해 보여주었으며, 제도적 기술영향평가에 직접 적용할 때 고려해야 할 제언 또한 도출하였다. 향후 본 연구에서 도출된 지표를 활용함으로써, 제도적 기술영향평가에 적절한 대상기술을 선정할 수 있을 것이며 그를 통하여 기술영향평가 결과의 활용이 사회적 정책적으로 강화될 수 있을 것으로 전망된다.

How to measure Quality Performance (QP) or excellence performance in organizations is very important for improving the quality of an organization's products and services. This paper takes Quality Function Deployment (QFD) as a useful tool to identify the key characteristics of quality performance and measure the influence factors on quality performance. Most national quality awards provide a framework of the criteria to show the essential elements of an organization's quality performance and get the Quality Performance Score (QPS) by self-assessment using the criteria. By means of these criteria, especially, the criteria of China Quality Award (CQA), a measurable indicator system for quality performance is set up. A four-phase QFD model of assessment for quality performance is developed. This QFD model not only presents the most important efforts for the deployment of the measurable indicators of quality performance, but also takes great advantage of evaluating the quality performance and obtaining the quality performance score. The measurable indicator hierarchy of quality performance is formed and its implementation method for assessment quality performance is described in this paper.

United States of America started NSDI in 1994 for the first time in the world. EU and other many countries invested lots of budget on NSDI due to necessity to manage countries and social economy. As skepticism for effect of such investment has risen, developed countries predicted higher effect compared to investment using ROI and other methods. FGDC clarified that geospatial information is a critical national assets. USA has managed NSDI by introducing portfolio concept for it recognizing NSDI as financial assets from fixed assets. Currently directions of NSDI and its advancement has been proceeded variably depending on corresponding organizations, human resources, budget and national policies. This study analyzed recent trends regarding NSDI assessment methods from developed countries and researchers. Assessment of NSDI is introduced only by some countries such as EU, USA and Canada. This study analyzed USA's assessment model and indicator that assess NSDI in a way that various external organizations (COGO, URISA) participate, EU INSPIRE Directives, monitoring and Canada's CGDI assessment methods. Besides these, this study analyzed STIG that adopted Financial Infrastructure from European studies and Korea's NSDI monitoring assessment indicator research. Further this study suggested assessment directions for future NSDI through implications of NSDI assessment method analysis.

Consoli가 설명한 것처럼 전과정평가의 개념 및 일반적인 정의에 따르면, 전과정평가는 농업생산에 관련된 환경영향을 평가하는데 부합하는 방법이라고 생각되며, 특별히 전과정평가방법인 Eco-indicator 95는 농업 체재에 대한 환경영향을 분석하는데 적절한 기법인 것으로 입정되었다. Eco-indicator 95 method를 이용하여 지구온난화 및 수계부영양화와 관련된 시비체계에 따른 벼 재배에 대해 비교할만한 분석체계를 이루었다. 그렇지만 본 연구에서 전과정평가 항목에 기록된 모든 관련 정보가 환경 영향에 고려되지 않았기 때문에 Eco-indicator 95 method를 농업생산 체계에 적용할 때 몇 가지 난제에 부닥친다. Eco-indicator 95 method에 토양 및 자원의 이용과 같은 몇 몇 중요한 환경적인 문제가 포함되지 않았으며, 이 방법의 다른 문제는 환경 평가를 위하여 현장 정밀연구가 수행되지 않았다는 것이다. 그렇지만 본 연구에서 얻어진 생태지표 지수를 이용하여 벼 재배에 따른 시비방법 간의 차이점을 나타내기에 충분하다고 여겨지며, 가장 높은 생태지표 지수를 나타낸 화학비료를 시용한 구에서 가장 큰 환경영향이 관측되었고, 이러한 차이점은 주로 화학비료 투입에 의한 토양중의 높은 인산 함량의 축적 때문인 것으로 여겨진다. 분석한 시비체재는 특별히 지구온난화 보다는 수계의 부영양화의 환경적인 문제에 기여되는 것으로 나타났으므로 질소 시용비율 및 시용기술 이외에 액비 시용에 따른 양분 용탈이 수계 환경에 명확히 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

This study aims to propose a determinant model to select a method on calculating weight of each indicator for environmental evaluation. According to analyzing and comparing with three types of methods for calculating weights which are usually used to evaluate environment with indicators, the weights which were obtained by each type were all different from each other. This means that a differential weighting method must be applied to each of environmental evaluation studies. Therefore, a determinant model is required to determine weight-calculating methods. Three types of weighting methods, such as weighting by importance degree, weighting by eigen-value and weighting by analytic hierarchy process, were compared. Under the necessity, a determinant model was drawn for selecting a compatible method to calculate weights of indicators in environmental evaluation.

Typical probabilistic safety assessment (PSA) results were used to estimate the performance indicator (PI) thresholds of unplanned reactor scram (URS) and safety system unavailability (SSU) for Korean nuclear power plants (NPPs). The changes in core damage frequency (${\Delta}$CDFs) of $10^{-6}/yr$, $10^{-5}/yr$, and $10^{-4}/yr$ were adopted as the risk criteria in setting up the PI thresholds. The PI thresholds for the URS were estimated using information pertaining to the initiating event frequencies, the CDF, and the CDF contribution of each initiating event. The PI thresholds of the SSU were estimated using information on the unavailability, the Fussell-Vesely importance, and the CDF.

Various methods for detecting changes in response behaviors of indicator specimens are presented for monitoring effects of toxic treatments. The movement patterns of individuals are quantitatively characterized by statistical (i.e., ANOVA, multivariate analysis) and computational (i.e., fractal dimension, Fourier transform) methods. Extraction of information in complex behavioral data is further illustrated by techniques in ecological informatics. Multi-Layer Perceptron and Self-Organizing Map are applied for detection and patterning of response behaviors of indicator specimens. The recent techniques of Wavelet analysis and line detection by Recurrent Self-Organizing Map are additionally discussed as an efficient tool for checking time-series movement data. Behavioral monitoring could be established as new methodology in integrative ecological assessment, tilling the gap between large-scale (e.g., community structure) and small-scale (e.g., molecular response) measurements.

Nowadays, the environmental conservation has become a hot issue. Also the sustainable city issue is recognized as one of the most important tasks to be solved urgently for urban development. Therefore, the current indicator for sustainable city has been analyzed only as a segment of the environmental indicator which is one kind of branch of social indicator. However, considering the degree of pollution and heightened concern, it is time to develop a new and improved framework for the analysis of the sustainable city indicator. This study aims for the development of sustainable city indicator and the examination of practical method for the use of them. Urban sustainable city indicators are based on the "Pressure-State-Response (PSR) framework" which has been adopted by Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). The indicators suggested in this study is composed of the following categories: 1. Indicators of natural environment itself, such as land structure (available land use index etc.), bio-species (bio-diversity index etc.), environment resources (water quantity index etc.) 2. Indicators of relationship between man and environment, such as sustainability of using material (recycle of water index etc.), pressure size (pressure index on air etc.), effort of prevention (environmental basic facility index, etc.) 3. Indicators of environmental state, such as landscape and culture (historical & cultural index etc.), environmental pollution (air pollution index etc.) A sustainable city environment is necessary and obtainable, yet its realization seems to be difficult. The urban pollution problems have become more serious than ever before thus requiring much interest. Therefore, this kind of study is meaningful for the establishment of policy objective, and the development and management environmentally sound and sustainable cities.
