A new product development is critical to the growth and success of most business firms. Increasingly, the new product development is recognized as an essential component of the corporate plan. But, relatively few research investigations have focused on the elements of a new product development strategy and its performance results. This study aims to identify the patterns of new product development strategy which business firms adopt, and its performance results. To identify these patterns and results, 268 firms in four industries known to be active in new product development were selected as a matter of convenience, and surveyed by the questionnaire and interviews. The questionnaire is composed of 67 strategy variables, 8 performance variables, and other variables. To analyze the data from samples, various statistical methods such as factor analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, sluster analysis, and one-way ANOVA were employed. This analysis brought forth the following major findings: First, three new product development strategy patterns were identified. Each strategy pattern was proved to be different from the others in terms of group of strategy elements that were adopted. Second, the new product development strategy was closely linked to its performance. Third, the difference of performance results among strategy groups in each industries was rather significant, however, the performance difference among industries in each strategy group was less significant.

The decision makers of IT projects are faced to situations to choose a best development method between inhouse development and solution purchase when companies must develop a new system or enhance the existed system. For those decision makers related to the IT projects, this study provides them with meaningful results through the ISBSG project repositary, how each development method, such as a development inhouse, a solution purchased, a combined method, impact the function point, which is a critical factor to measure the required time, efforts, cost of IT project development.

Human resource for the new and renewable energy technology is an important factor in the respect of the sustainable growth and energy security. In this paper, we focused on measuring the economic effect of human resource development on new and renewable energy development programs. The human capital accumulation model developed by Mincer (1974) was modified in terms of the rate of the researchers' investment in human capital. As a result of a empirical case study, the value of human capital was estimated by 102 million Korean won per year worth 18% of the project labor cost. In case of the assumption of 100% participation of researchers, the level of human capital accumulation increased to 914 million Korean won per year. These results imply that the new and renewable energy development programs has been successful, on the concept of learning by doing, in terms of providing the researchers with opportunities to accumulate human capital.

The purpose of this study were to analyze youth leadership skill of rural youth and to suggest implication for rural youth development. The study was carried out questionnaire. To analyze youth leadership skill of rural youth, the data were collected from 196 rural youth by stratified random sampling. The SPSSWIN / ver12.0 was used for analyzing data with t-test, ANOVA, and factor analysis. The major findings of this study were as follows; 1) Average of youth leadership skill is 91.42, minimum is was 61, maximum is 130, 2)When it comes to youth leadership skill, it is higher in highly educated youth and higher economic status, 3)When it comes to youth leadership skill, it is higher in farming size, extending in three years, promise of farming successor. Conclusionally, the study suggests community youth should be offered more educational experience for developing youth leadership.

This research examined the effect of the quality of aggregate on concrete workability and compressive strength through an investigation into regional aggregate used in domestic ready mixed concrete plants. Through the research, it was found that aggregate for ready mixed concrete shows poor quality overall. The main factor of deterioration in the quality of the concrete is the particle size of fine aggregate and fine particle content in coarse aggregate. The quality of aggregate significantly influences concrete's workability, which is defined based on 0.08mm passage related with powder and absorption. In addition, poor aggregate quality leads to increased water content in concrete to secure workability, which is related with a decline in the compressive strength and durability of concrete.

This study was conducted to explore the factors that influence the development of happiness during childhood using longitudinal data obtained from the Korea Youth Panel Survey(KYPS). Specifically, the causal relationships between factors impacting the individual children, the home environment factor, and the happiness of children were examined over a 3-years-period. The subjects evaluated in this study included 2,844 children (1,524 boys and 1,320 girls) and 2,844 parents who were administered the KYPS. The data were analyzed using the SAS program. The results revealed that happiness that develops during childhood remains stable and constant, which indicates that prior happiness has a strong effect on future happiness. The individual factors affecting the children, which include schoolwork achievement and extra private education, were found to have a great influence on the development of happiness at all ages. The use of longitudinal data in this study is a new method in the field of Human Development.

Over the past few years, the economic growth had a great effect on tourism. As a number of tourist increase, particulary in the relaxation tourism, tourists inevitably need some measures which health their liver, as a social value. In this respect, it is required efficient development of hot springs designed to contribute to the improvement of national health, and suggest some good directions through on analysis of the following 1. The method of developping connection the neighborhood tourism area. 2. The development of travel commodities for trying to attract tourists, connecting hot spring bath. 3. The activity for management. 4. The establishment for tourism action. 5. The setting up development planning 6. The creation of attractive street.

Vehicles and UGV(Unmanned Ground Vehicle) need a variety of road informations, such as road profile, soil type and soil water contents, to run a cross country course. Especially, soil water contents are very important factor to judge the vehicle mobility, because it can change soil strength. This paper describes the real-time measuring method of soil water contents by using the soil thermal conductivity.

The purpose of this study is to present a fundamental data for evaluating aircraft noise of building site development. By the field experiments and the predicted equal noise level contours using the INM program, actual condition in the building site development arranged district was investigated. In order to get the results, Analysis of factors effected on noise level, sound level on the rate of increase to aircraft demand and difference on the aircraft noise levels according to floor level in apartment house was carried out. As a result the influence of the take-off and landing direction were appeared greatly. The influences of the height at receiving point, movement number of aircraft and increase to aircraft demand were appeared small And the influence of 1 day average WECPNL must be considered.

As software development and maintenance cost increase quickly, information systems managers are more concerned about how to effectively manage software cost. To estimate the software development cost, most public institutes of Korea use the software cost estimation standard established by the government. Unfortunately, the accuracy of the estimation derived from the standard has not been satisfactory in spite of repetitive modifications made to improve it. One of the major reasons for the inaccuracy is that the standard has too small a number of cost adjustment factors to reflect the various characteristics of a software development project. To remedy this problem, we propose new cost adjustment factors which can be incorporated into the standard and are important to enhance the estimation accuracy, based on the analysis of several well-known software estimation models. Furthermore, by applying the proposed model to real world software projects, we show that the proposed model can produce more accurate estimates than the current standard.
