  • Background: It has been suggested that engaging technology can empower individuals to be more proactive about their health and reduce their health risks. The aim of the present intervention was to study the effects of technology-aided testing and feedback on physical activity and biological age of employees in a middle-sized enterprise. Methods: In all, 121 employees (mean age $42{\pm}10$ years) participated in the 12-month three-arm cluster randomized trial. The fitness measurement process (Body Age) determined the participants' biological age in years. Physical activity was measured with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form. Results: Physical activity did not change during the intervention. Biological age (better fitness) improved in all groups statistically significantly (p < 0.001), but with no interaction effects. The mean changes (years) in the groups were -2.20 for the controls, e2.83 for the group receiving their biological age and feedback, and -2.31 for the group receiving their biological age, feedback, and a training computer. Conclusion: Technology-aided testing with feedback does not seem to change the amount of physical activity but may enhance physical fitness measured by biological age.

  • Organizations need to exhibit characteristics of agility to stay ahead of their competitors and to survive in dynamic environments. One major concern for organizations is how to implement Information Systems (ISs) to enhance their agility. Organizations tend to spend too many resources to change their entire IS instead of only the components that cause problems without exactly knowing whether it enables or suppress organizational agility. To address these shortcomings and practical issues, we provide a framework to assess organizational agility and to diagnose a problem related to IS. By applying this prototype of the Agility Framework, we were able to diagnose a problem that the department of Management Control and Information Systems at the Universidad de Chile had and planned actions for them to improve its organizational agility with a course scheduling system, eClasSkeduler. This action research, which took more than 25-month for the first cycle, further develops the Agility Framework, which not only provides a way to link IS with organizational functions but also illustrates how to use it to diagnose a situation and plan actions for improving organizational agility through an information system.

  • Objectives: To analyze the association between changes in perceived physical and psychosocial working conditions and change of sickness absence days in younger and older (< 50 and ${\geq}50$ years) food industry employees. Methods: This was a follow up study of 679 employees, who completed working conditions survey questionnaires in 2005 and 2009 and for whom the requisite sickness absence data were available for the years 2004 and 2008. Results: Sickness absence increased and working conditions improved during follow-up. However, the change of increased sickness absence days were associated with the change of increased poor working postures and the change of deteriorated team spirit and reactivity (especially among < 50 years). No other changes in working conditions were associated with the changes in sickness absence. Conclusion: Sickness absence is affected by many factors other than working conditions. Nevertheless, according to this study improving team spirit and reactivity and preventing poor working postures are important in decreasing sickness absence.

  • 영상에서 사람의 얼굴 영상을 추출하여 성별 및 연령대를 자동으로 분석하는 시스템은 광고판 등을 이용한 마케팅, 보안, 통계 분야 등 여러 가지 적용이 가능하다. 이러한 시스템의 개발을 위해서는 얼굴 인식 알고리즘과 특성 분류 알고리즘이 요구된다. 그러나 기존 알고리즘의 경우 문제점이 존재한다. 얼굴 인식 알고리즘으로 가장 많이 사용되는 HAAR 특징은 오탐률이 높으며, 특성 분류 알고리즘으로 사용하는 Fisherface 기법의 경우 분류 Class가 3가지 이상시 분류 성공률이 현저히 떨어지는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 두 알고리즘의 문제점을 개선한 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다. 얼굴 인식을 위해 기존 HAAR 특징과 LBP 특징을 결합하여 오탐률을 크게 감소시켰다. 또한 특성 분류를 위하여 3 Class 이상의 분류를 대체할 방법으로 2 Class-multi-level 반복 분류방식을 사용하였다. 대량의 데이터에 대한 실험을 통하여 제안한 방법이 기존 방법들보다 성능이 향상되었음을 보인다.

  • The Public Data Act mandates that every public institution must make efforts to facilitate convenient access to public data for all and take necessary measures to universally expand the right to use such data. Furthermore, it specifies that the head of a public institution must provide the data held and managed by that institution to the citizens. The Construction Project Information Disclosure Service aims to increase the utilization of data within the Construction CALS System, creating new added value by disclosing information and fostering communication. This service seeks to enhance public interest and transparency, support the creation of new businesses based on construction project data, and stimulate related industries. Since 2019, a total of 26 types of information have been disclosed through this service. As the volume of disclosed information continues to increase, there has been a consistent demand for reducing burden on data providers and enhancing user functionality. This study analyzes the current status of the Construction CALS Information Disclosure System to identify its existing challenges. Subsequently, it establishes a systematic approach to the data opening process and proposes enhancements to information disclosure and search functionalities for addressing these challenges.

  • In this study, 88 dental students were examined to evaluate the relationship between occlusal states and TM disorders for the epidemiologic study of TM disorders. The clinical evaluation were composed of mandibular movement, TMJ noise, occlusal states and muscle palpation. The following results were disclosed. 1. The frequencies of pain on mandibular movement were 3.4% on maximum opening, 1.13% on protrusion and no pain on laterotrusion. 2. The frequencies on TMJ sound were 21.6% in click, 1.13% in crepitus. 3. The frequency of tenderness on palpation was 12.5% on extra oral, intraoral and neck muscles, tenderness on palpation of TMJ capsule were reported 5 cases, and 4 of them were female. 4. The distribution of Angle's classification was found 79.5% in class I, 4.5% in clasII-div.1 and 15.9% in class III. There was no significant differences on TM disorders between Angles classifications. 5. There was no significant differences on TM disorders between the subjects of canine guided occlusion and group function occlusion, and also for the differences between the subjects of nonworking side interferences and no interferences on laterotrusion. 6. There was no significant differences on TM disorders between the subjects of anterior teeth trauma in C.C. and no anterior teeth trauma, but there were significant differences between the subjects of posterior protrusive contact and no posterior protrusive contact.

  • The objective of this study was to investigate the differences in food intake patterns by the economic status. Data from the 1998 Korean National Health and Nutrition Survey were used. Using the poverty line based on the 1998 Korean minimum cost of living, the subjects (n = 10400) were classified into high class (36.1%), middle class (40.7%) and low class (23.1%). Mean intakes for other food groups except grains, potatoes and vegetables became higher as the eco-nomic levels were going up. By the family size, it was found that intakes of grains and fishes were different (p<0.05). By the economic status, intakes of fruits (p<0.05), meats (p<0.05) and fishes (p<0.01) were different. There were no significant differences in consumed types of food by the economic status. Rice was the most prevalent food in all clas-ses and its intakes increased as the economic status was going down. In the dietary patterns of main food group (GMDVF: Grain, Meats, Dairy, Vegetable and Fruit), the pattern except dairy (11011) revealed the highest proportion in high-middle class while the patterns without dairy and fruit food groups (11010) had the highest proportion in low class. The propor-tions of subjects with the low dietary diversity score (DDS) increased as economic status was going down (p<0.01). The food groups that most people do not consume were the dairy and fruit group. Proportions of people who missed one or more group increased as economic status was going down. The high dietary variety score (DVS) also was linked to a high score on the DDS and high class (p<0.01). Thus the intakes of the dairy and fruits product should be increased in all classes. The low class especially had worse quality of food intakes pattern than that of the high or middle class. The nutrition policy and education programs need to be established according to the economic status.
