The purpose of this study is to suggest some policy recommendations on the development of agricultural research of public agricultural institution. Critics say public agricultural institution are not working fast enough. As for efficiency itself, it seems reasonable to conclude that privatization plan is the best plan. The change that is needed to improve the efficiency of public agricultural institution is not the point in question. I will concentrate on the extraordinary nature of agriculture. We must not forget the important of extraordinary nature of agriculture. What is important is to have a genuine debate on extraordinary nature of agriculture and agricultural research. My aim is to highlight some aspects of agricultural research of public institution. Most important thing is, agricultural research is a valuable resource for nation. As I mentioned before, the change that is needed to improve the efficiency of public agricultural institution is not the point in question But there is much room for consideration for proper method. Impatient privatization without serious consideration could have a negative impact on the agricultural research.

Research relevant to the electronic commerce tends to either overestimate or underrate the role of Information and Communication Technology (lCT). There is both technological skepticism within the social science circles and technical optimism within the engineering and computing field. Each perspective seems to have a limitation in adequately explaining the phenomenon of electronic commerce diffusion. Therefore, this research attempts to explore major characteristics of Web-based shopping systems as enablers of new business, concerning both the technical and business aspects in contemporary electronic commerce settings. On this basis, this paper addresses a configuration model of WBSS on the harmonious perspective concerning both the technical and business issues. It is our hope that both technical perspective and business perspective for exploring WBSS's configuration model presented in this paper can be an initial step towards a more balanced debate of ICT role, for electronic commerce.

Increase in daily protein consumption per capita from 1975(85.1 g) to 2001(88.4 g) was 3.3 g. This trend was relatively slower than the case of Japan where daily protein consumption was 84.7 g in 1975 and 90.3 g in 2001. Animal-related protein in 2003 was 45.7 g in which 61% was originated from meat, milk and egg whereas 39% was composed of fish and its relevance. The trend of protein consumption fairly come up with the ideal ratio of 5:5 between animal-originated protein and plant-originated protein, following the base case of Japan. The effect of animal protein on human health can vary depending on one's viewpoint and its controversy is still a subject of debate. For reason, two faces of positive and negative effects on human health coexists. However, there is no doubt that positive effect is far more than negative one. It is not important whether or not animal protein is more beneficial for human health. However, it is more important how human balance between two proteins.

The purpose of this study was to develop problem-solving experiments and investigate the effects of these experiments on student attitudes. According to results the experiments were effective in changing student attitude from 'dead reckoners' to 'empiricists'. In addition, these experiments effectively changed perceptions about experiments, especially in the sub-categories of difference recognition, degree of inquiry, and use of debate.

It is well observed in the satellite telecommunication policy of several States that legal constraints imposed upon the service coverage of satellite telecommunication as well as broadcasting are to be relaxed in a progressive way. Major aspects of such policy change lie in the adoption of policy refusing traditional concept of national frontier. In the case of direct broadcasting satellite service, while a debate upon the legal issues regarding the spill-over effect of that service is no more major concern of the States, many multinational enterprises are looking for strategic alliance for regional or global DBS project. On the other hand, an implementation plan for connecting the world through global mobile personal communication satellite system is being pursued by several joint effort of multinational firms. Legal issues arise regarding the regulatory competence of each State, Especially, a controversial issue is concerning the sovereign right well recognized upon the regulation of telecommunication. This study is focusing upon the evolution of such policy change for the purpose of allowing us to expect future develpment of worldwide satellite telecommunication policy environment.

(1) The correlation between the mass of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) and the properties of their host galaxies suggests that SMBHs and host galaxies are closely linked in their formation and evolution. While the exact origin of their relationship is still under debate, theoretical models often invoke feedback from active galactic nuclei as a crucial mechanism for establishing the BH-host correlation. In the first part of my talk, I will present our efforts to find observational sign of the AGN feedback in young luminous AGNs. (2) While intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) is thought be cosmologically important class to understand the link between stellar mass black holes and SMBHs, it is extremely rare in the present-day Universe. In the second part of this talk, I will report a Gemini/GMOS-N IFU study of an ultraluminous X-ray source in NGC 5252, which is a possible candidate of an off-nuclear non-stellar black hole.

Recent galaxy simulations suggest several scenarios in which the inner structure of late-type galaxies (LTGs) is linked to global quenching. Exactly what mechanism governs the bulge quenching is, however, still under debate due to the lack of observational clues. In this study, we utilize a sample of ~1,300 LTGs in the local universe (0.02 < z < 0.2) from SDSS 7, and classify them into star-forming, AGN-hosting, and composite types and into barred and unbarred galaxies. We also examine each subgroup's specific star forming rate (sSFR), stellar mass and compactness using a data set matched with the advanced sSFR catalog by Chang et al. (2015). We find that while star-forming and composite galaxies show no detectable difference between barred and unbarred galaxies, barred AGNs have much lower sSFR than unbarred AGNs at given stellar mass and compactness, Such tendency is stronger for more massive and/or more concentrated galaxies. The results indicate that most AGN-driven quenching is triggered by growth of the bar structure, consistent with the previous simulations of bars.

Greenhouse gas emission policy in Korea and elsewhere is based on emissions projections, a key element of which is the projected path of structural change from high productivity growth to low productivity growth economic sectors given sector specific labor productivity growth, emissions abatement across sectors and population growth. Thus, it is important to model the source of the structural change to forecast emissions correctly. Using data for the Korean economy, this study constructs and quantitatively evaluates a model of structural change and green growth to generate policy implications for Korea and the international greenhouse gas debate.

As the U.S. Congress has continued to debate over the health care reform pushed by President Obama, there is an ample reason to believe that the systematic risk of the health care industry, especially health care plan providers, is increasing. This study measures and compares the systematic risk of two health care industry indexes and one portfolio of health care plan providers from before and after the introduction of the health care legislation into Congress in September, 2009. The Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) is used to measure the systematic risk, and a dummy variable approach and the Chow test are used to formally compare the systematic risk from before and after the introduction of the legislation.
