The study attempted to document the concept of farm tourism by categories and to evaluate the farm tourism projects developed in Kyungpook area, and also to formulate a device for improving such projects in Kyungpook area. For these purposes we have examined the existing patterns of farm tourism projects developed in Kyungpook area since 1986 and evaluated such projects conducted in same area. We also attempted to find out what were the problems conducting such projects. To estimate the demand patterns of farm tourism we have done a survey conducted in city and urban areas and documented consumer's preferences which patterns were willing to. Finally we suggested, in this study, several strategies for improving the farm toruism projects in Kyungpook area.

Overproduction of intracellular ${\beta}$-glucosidase was attempted by modifying the promoter region of a ${\beta}$-glucosidase gene cloned from Cellulomonas fimi and expressing it in Bacillus subtilis DB 104. A strong engineered promoter, BJ27UΔ88, was fused to the ${\beta}$-glucosidase gene after removing its native promoter. An effective Shine-Dalgamo sequence (genel0 of phage T7) was inserted between the promoter and the ${\beta}$-glucosidase structural gene. The modified gene was overexpressed in B. subtilis and produced 1121.5 units of ${\beta}$-glucosidase per mg protein which is about $12\%$ of total intracellular protein. Secretion of overproduced intracellular ${\beta}$-glucosidase was attempted by using the signal sequence of the Bacillus endoglucanase gene as well as an in-frame hybrid protein of endoglucanase. The hybrid protein was normally secreted into the culture medium and still retained ${\beta}$-glucosidase activity.

The stress distribution of bone is altered by the rigid bone plate, sometimes resulting in unfavorable osteoporosis. The rigidity and the biocompatibility are important factors for the design of prosthesis. However, it is also necessary to consider the effect on the bone remodeling. In this paper, it is attempted to establish an approximate and simple method to predict the trend of the configuration of surface bone remodeling for the case of a bone plate using stress analysis. Thus, three dimensional finite element model of plated-human femur is generated and simulated. In addition. the stress difference method (SDM) is introduced and attempted to demonstrate the configuration of surface bone remodeling of the plated-human femur. The results are compared with those of invivo tests and the feasibility of the stress difference method is discussed.

A shape optimization of a rib of a bolster of a bogie frame is attempted and a dimension optimization on upper and lower plates is also carried out for the reduction of the weight of bogie frame. In addition, the dynamic characteristics of the weight reduced model are investigated by an analysis of a natural frequency and a transient analysis. The results show that the first natural frequency of an optimized model is larger than that of the lowest design value. And the results of transit analysis based on the experimental stress also show smaller value than the yield stress. Thus the optimized model attempted in this study is considered to be structurally stable and useful for the improvement of railway carriages.

The purpose of this study was (1) to construct 'easy-to-read' books and (2) to investigate the effect of 'easy-to-read' books on young children's independent reading, the subjects were twenty six three and four-year-old children who attended a Saemaul murery school in Irk, chullapuk-do. The subjects were randomly assigned to and of two storybook reading conditions: in the first condition. subjects were encouraged to read traditional storybooks and in the second condition, subjects were encouraged to read 'easy-to-read' books. The paired t-test and the Student's t-test were employed to analyze the data. The results showed that subjects in both groups attempted to read more frequently in the post-test than in the pre-test. Subject in the 'easy-to-read' condition attempted to read more frequently on the post test than subjects in the traditional book condition.

Change is inevitable and is a reality of construction projects. Most construction contracts include change clauses and allowing contractors an equitable adjustment to the contract price and duration caused by change. However, the actions of a contractor can cause a loss of productivity and furthermore can result in disruption of the whole project because of a cumulative or ripple effect. Because of its complicated nature, it becomes a complex issue to determine the cumulative impact (ripple effect) caused by single or multiple change orders. Furthermore, owners and contractors do not always agree on the adjusted contract price for the cumulative Impact of the changes. A number of studies have attempted to quantify the impact of change orders on project costs and schedule. Many of these attempted to develop regression models to quantify the loss. However, regression analysis has shortcomings in dealing with many qualitative or noisy input data. This study develops ANN models to classify and quantify the labor productivity losses that are caused by the cumulative impact of change orders. The results skew that ANN models give significantly improved performance compared to traditional statistical models.

When applying FES to patients, proper evaluation must be performed prior to treating patient. Patients with thoracic lesions between $T_4{\sim}T_{12}$ are suitable for FES. However, these patients must have excitability of the leg muscles. Thus, excitability testing is an essential part of the screening program(stimulation at 80V gives a response). Before standing or walking is attempted the patients must perform restrengthening exercise, so that the Quadriceps muscle group minimum strength is 40 Nm (corresponding to a manual grade of F+ to G). After that walking and standing can be attempted. The effects of FES are as follows: prevents pressure sores; development and maintenance of muscle properties; prevents disuse atrophy and contractures.

This paper addresses an intelligent robot control system using an off-line programming to teach a precise assembly task of electronic components in a flexible way. The investigated task consists of three job: heat caulking test, soldering on a circuit board, and checking of soldering defects on the back cover of a camera. This study investigates the remodelling of the most complicated cell in terms of the accuracy and fault rate among the twelve cells in a camera back-cover assembly line. We have attempted to enhance back-cover assembly line. We have attempted to enhance soldering quality, to add task flexibility, to reduce failure rate, and to increase product reliability. This study modifies the cell structure, and improves the soldering condition. The developed all system implements the real-time control of assembly with vision data, and realized an easier task teaching on off-line programming.

In spite of the radical increase of chemical poisoning cases caused by prevalent of oranic chlorine like endosulfan, the study of detection of chemical poisoning has seldom been attempted; the study of poisoning in teeth, which is more secure physiochemically, and in all the oral tissues has been even less attempted. The author has administered endosulfan into the month of a rabbit, causing its death, and tried to detect endosulfan in the teeth, jaws, and oral tissues through forensic chemical and histopathological tests. The result obtained is as follows : 1. By thin layer chromatography, endosulfan was detected in the jews, dental hard tissues, dental pulp, blood, and the liver. 2. By gas chromatography, it was also detected in the jaws, dental hard tissues, dental pulp, blood, and the liver. 3. The congestion and hemorrhage in buccal mucosa, palatal mucosa, and dental pulp was detected.

The importance of quality logistics service has kept growing in fierce competitions. Accordingly, many have tried to assess the logistics service quality and attempted to propose the strategic ways to manage it. However, it has been known that service quality is a multi-dimensional construct and not all quality attributed are viewed as equally important to customers. In other words, each quality attribute has different implications for customer satisfaction. To this respect, the current study attempted to identify the satisfying/dissatisfying quality factor through the Kana approach. In so doing, several satisfying and dissatisfying quality factors in logistics service quality were identified. Further, several academic and practical implications for logistics service quality were proposed.
