무선 LAN(WLAN) 기반 mesh 망은 유선 엑세스 망의 단점을 보완하기 위한 대안으로 많은 주목을 받고 있으나 성공적인 상업화를 위해서는 성능, 보안, 관리 등 기술적인 이슈들을 해결해야 한다. 특히 단말과 유선망 사이의 데이터 교환을 위한 효율적인 경로 선정 문제는 WLAN mesh 망의 신뢰성과 안전성에 많은 영향을 미치므로 효과적인 라우팅 기법의 개발은 선결해야 될 중요한 문제이다. WLAN mesh 망은 포설되는 환경과 단말의 이동성 등에 의해 다양한 특징을 가지므로 reactive 라우팅 기법 혹은 proactive 라우팅 기법 하나만을 이용하는 것은 모든 mesh 망 환경에 적합하지 않다. 따라서 망 환경 변화에 따른 동적인 라우팅 기법 개발이 필요하며 이론 위해서는 망과 단말의 특성이 각 라우팅 기법의 성능에 미치는 영향이 종합적으로 파악되어야 한다. 그러나 현재까지 제안된 라우팅 기법들의 성능 평가에 관한 연구는 제한된 환경에서 모의 실험을 통한 정량적 평가에 머물고 있다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 망의 크기, 송신 단말의 밀도, 단말의 이동성, 망 형상 변화 주기론 모두 고려하여 reactive 기법인 AODV와 proactive 기법인 DSDV의 수학적 성능 분석 모델을 제시한다. 제안된 분석 모델은 변화하는 mesh 망 환경에 적응성 있는 라우팅 기법 개발에 이용될 것으로 기대된다.

Electronic commerce, commonly known as e-commerce or eCommerce, has become a major business trend in these days. The amount of trade conducted electronically has grown extraordinarily by developing the Internet technology. Most electronic commerce has being conducted between businesses to customers; therefore, the researches with respect to e-commerce are to find customer's needs, behaviors through statistical methods. However, the statistical researches, mostly based on a questionnaire, are the static researches, They can tell us the dynamic relationships between initial purchasing and repurchasing. Therefore, this study proposes dynamic research model for analyzing the cause of initial purchasing and repurchasing. This paper is based on the System-Dynamic theory, using the powerful simulation model with some restriction, The restrictions are based on the theory TAM(Technology Acceptance Model), PAM, and TPB(Theory of Planned Behavior). This article investigates not only the customer's purchasing and repurchasing behavior by passing of time but also the interactive effects to one another. This research model has six scenarios and three steps for analyzing customer behaviors. The first step is the research of purchasing situations. The second step is the research of repurchasing situations. Finally, the third step is to study the relationship between initial purchasing and repurchasing. The purpose of six scenarios is to find the customer's purchasing patterns according to the environmental changes. We set six variables in these scenarios by (1) changing the number of products; (2) changing the number of contents in on-line shopping malls; (3) having multimedia files or not in the shopping mall web sites; (4) grading on-line communities; (5) changing the qualities of products; (6) changing the customer's degree of confidence on products. First three variables are applied to study customer's purchasing behavior, and the other variables are applied to repurchasing behavior study. Through the simulation study, this paper presents some inter-relational result about customer purchasing behaviors, For example, Active community actions are not the increasing factor of purchasing but the increasing factor of word of mouth effect, Additionally. The higher products' quality, the more word of mouth effects increase. The number of products and contents on the web sites have same influence on people's buying behaviors. All simulation methods in this paper is not only display the result of each scenario but also find how to affect each other. Hence, electronic commerce firm can make more realistic marketing strategy about consumer behavior through this dynamic simulation research. Moreover, dynamic analysis method can predict the results which help the decision of marketing strategy by using the time-line graph. Consequently, this dynamic simulation analysis could be a useful research model to make firm's competitive advantage. However, this simulation model needs more further study. With respect to reality, this simulation model has some limitations. There are some missing factors which affect customer's buying behaviors in this model. The first missing factor is the customer's degree of recognition of brands. The second factor is the degree of customer satisfaction. The third factor is the power of word of mouth in the specific region. Generally, word of mouth affects significantly on a region's culture, even people's buying behaviors. The last missing factor is the user interface environment in the internet or other on-line shopping tools. In order to get more realistic result, these factors might be essential matters to make better research in the future studies.

본 연구의 목적은 2007년~2010년 유로 도입 이후 금융위기 및 그에 따른 EU 부채위기까지의 기간 내에 미국, 유럽 및 BRIC 금융시장 간의 선형과 비선형 인과관계의 존재를 통해 글로벌 전이효과를 조사하는데 있다. 금융위기로 인한 글로벌 전이효과가 잘 설명되어 있지만, 미국, 유럽 및 BRIC 주식시장 간의 변동성 전이효과의 특성 뿐만 아니라 전달 메커니즘은 체계적으로 조사되지 않았다. 동적 선형 및 비선형 인과관계를 조사하기 위해 단계적인 필터링 방법론이 도입되었는데, 이는 벡터자기회귀모형과 다변량 GARCH 모형을 포함한다. 본 논문의 표본은 유로 이후 기간을 포함하고 또한 2007년 금융위기, 2008년 글로벌 금융위기, 2010년 유로존 부채위기도 포함한다. 본 연구의 실증결과는 BRIC 주식시장의 효율성에 많은 함의를 가질 수 있는데 시장의 예측가능성에 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 시장의 금융통합의 과정을 수량화하기 위해서 미래의 연구에 유용할 수 있다. 미국, 유럽 및 BRIC 간의 상호 의존성이 감지되면 금융시장 규제, 헤징 및 거래 전략에 대한 중요한 함의를 나타낼 수 있다. 또한 결과는 BRIC이 미국발 서브프라임 금융위기 이후 국제적으로 통합되고 있고 전이효과가 더욱 구체화 되어 현저하게 나타나고 있다는 것을 보여준다. 더욱이, 탈동조화 견해를 지지하는 일관된 증거가 전혀 없다. 일부 비선형 인과관계는 조사기간 동안 필터링 후에도 지속된다. 비록 꼬리분포 의존성과 고적률이 나머지 상호 의존성의 유의한 요소일 수 있을지라도, 이것은 비선형 인과관계가 단순한 변동성 효과에 의해 대체로 설명될 수 있다.

이 연구는 젠더연구에서 몸과 테크놀로지가 가지는 의미를 고찰함으로써, '여성'이라는 범주가 고정된 것이 아니라 '여성되기'의 진행적인 과정임을 제시한다. 신자유주의 시대에 젠더 정체성은 여성과 테크놀로지의 관계를 재설정해야 할 여러 가지 문제들을 제시하고 있으며, 이 관계의 역동성을 이해하기 위해서는 '몸'의 문제를 살펴볼 필요가 있다. 이를 위해서 본 연구는 먼저 페미니즘 연구와 젠더 연구 전반에서 몸에 대한 담론이 진행되어온 과정과 의미를 탐색했다. 이어서 몸과 젠더의 관계에서 테크놀로지가 갖는 위치를 살펴보고, 몸이 젠더 정체성을 주체적으로 수행하는 동시에 정체성이 구성되기도 하는 담론의 장이자 물질적 장소임을 주장했다. 마지막으로는 몸과 젠더와 테크놀로지의 삼자관계에 집중한 사이버페미니즘의 논의를 구체적으로 살펴봄으로써, '여성되기'에서 테크놀로지가 갖는 역할과 의미를 재고해야 할 필요성에 대해 논의했다. 결국 여성되기에 있어서 테크놀로지가 갖는 의미를 살펴보는 일은, 일상의 경험 세계에서 몸이 지니는 담론적이고 실천적인 의미에 대한 숙고를 통해 이루어져야 함을 제시했다. '여성되기'의 가능성은, 몸-젠더-테크놀로지의 접합방식과 과정에 대한 탐구를 통해 젠더의 (재)구성을 살펴볼 때만 상상될 수 있을 것이다.

세계 주식 시장의 주가 동조 현상은 정보화와 세계화의 급격한 발전에 힘입어 최근 학계와 실무 업계에서 많은 관심을 끌고 있다. 예를 들어 미국의 다우지수 또는 Nasdaq 지수가 상승(또는 하락)하면 유럽 및 아시아 국가들의 주가 지수도 상승(또는 하락)할 것으로 예측하는 시장 전문가들의 견해가 아무런 실증적 분석 없이 통용될 뿐 아니라 심지어 국내 시장에서는 미국 시장의 주가 지수 등락이 국내 주가 지수의 등락에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변수 중의 하나로 인식되고 있는 실정이다. 자본 시장의 세계적 통합이 이루어지면서 선진 주식 시장들을 중심으로 한 국제간 주식시장의 수익률에 관한 비교 연구는 다수 있지만(Kasa(1992), Lee and Jeon(1995), Richards(1995)등), 사실 국내 주식 시장을 포함한 아시아 지역 신흥 시장에서의 국제간 주가 수익률 비교 연구는 그다지 많지 않다. 본 연구에서는 한 미 일 3국의 거래소 및 장외시장 주가지수를 대상으로 백터자기회귀 모형(VAR)을 적용하여 그레인저 인과 관계, 충격반응함수 및 분산분해 등의 실증 분석을 통해 3국의 주가지수의 동태적 실상을 파악하게 된다. 이때 3국의 주가 지수에 존재할 것으로 예상되는 공통 요인이 있을 경우에는 적절한 오차수정모형(ECM)이 적용된다. 이를 통해 본 연구의 또 다른 성과 중의 하나는 국제 투자론에서 전통적으로 행해오던 국제 분산 투자의 효과에 관한 실증적 검증을 한 미 일 3국의 주식 시장의 분산투자 효과를 중심으로 수행할 수 있다는 것을 들 수 있다.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been one of the most fatal malignant tumors worldwide and its associated morbidity and mortality remain of significant concern. Based on in-depth reviews of serological diagnosis of HCC, in addition to AFP, there are other biomarkers: Lens culinaris agglutinin-reactive AFP (AFP-L3), descarboxyprothrombin (DCP), tyrosine kinase with Ig and eprdermal growth factor (EGF) homology domains 2 (TIE2)-espressing monocytes (TEMs), glypican-3 (GPC3), Golgi protein 73 (GP73), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA) have been proposed as biomarkers for the early detection of HCC. The diagnosis of HCC is primarily based on noninvasive standard imaging methods, such as ultrasound (US), dynamic multiphasic multidetector-row CT (MDCT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Some experts advocate gadolinium diethyl-enetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA) MRI and contrast-enhanced US as the promising imaging madalities of choice. With regard to recent advancements in tissue markers, many cuting-edge technologies using genome-wide DNA microarrays, qRT-PCR, and proteomic and inmunostaining studies have been implemented in an attempt to identify markers for early diagnosis of HCC. Only less than half of HCC patients at initial diagnosis are at an early stage treatable with curative options: local ablation, surgical resection, or liver transplant. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is considered the standard of care with palliation for intermediate stage HCC. Recent innovative procedures using drug-eluting-beads and radioembolization using Yttrium-90 may exhibit beneficial effects in HCC treatment. During the past few years, several molecular targeted agents have been evaluated in clinical trials in advanced HCC. Sorafenib is currently the only approved systemic treatment for HCC. It has been approved for the therapy of asymptomatic HCC patients with well-preserved liver function who are not candidates for potentially curative treatments, such as surgical resection or liver transplantation. In the USA, Europe and particularly Japan, hepatitis C virus (HCV) related HCC accounts for most liver cancer, as compared with Asia-Pacific regions, where hepatitis B virus (HBV) may play a more important role in HCC development. HBV vaccination, while a vaccine is not yet available against HCV, has been recognized as a best primary prevention method for HBV-related HCC, although in patients already infected with HBV or HCV, secondary prevention with antiviral therapy is still a reasonable strategy. In addition to HBV and HCV, attention should be paid to other relevant HCC risk factors, including nonalcoholic fatty liver disease due to obesity and diabetes, heavy alcohol consumption, and prolonged aflatoxin exposure. Interestingly, coffee and vitamin K2 have been proven to provide protective effects against HCC. Regarding tertiary prevention of HCC recurrence after surgical resection, addition of antiviral treatment has proven to be a rational strategy.

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to shed light on the importance of the slope and curvature of the volatility curve implied in option prices in the KOSPI 200 options index. A number of studies examine the implied volatility curve, however, these usually focus on cross-sectional characteristics such as the volatility smile. Contrary to previous studies, we focus on time-series characteristics; we investigate correlation dynamics among slope, curvature, and level of the implied volatility curve to capture market information embodied therein. Our study may provide useful implications for investors to utilize current market expectations in managing portfolios dynamically and efficiently. Research design, data, and methodology - For our empirical purpose, we gathered daily KOSPI200 index option prices executed at 2:50 pm in the Korean Exchange distribution market during the period of January 2, 2004 and January 31, 2012. In order to measure slope and curvature of the volatility curve, we use approximated delta distance; the slope is defined as the difference of implied volatilities between 15 delta call options and 15 delta put options; the curvature is defined as the difference between out-of-the-money (OTM) options and at-the-money (ATM) options. We use generalized method of moments (GMM) and the seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) method to verify correlations among level, slope, and curvature of the implied volatility curve with statistical support. Results - We find that slope as well as curvature is positively correlated with volatility level, implying that put option prices increase in a downward market. Further, we find that curvature and slope are positively correlated; however, the relation is weakened at deep moneyness. The results lead us to examine whether slope decreases monotonically as the delta increases, and it is verified with statistical significance that the deeper the moneyness, the lower the slope. It enables us to infer that when volatility surges above a certain level due to any tail risk, investors would rather take long positions in OTM call options, expecting market recovery in the near future. Conclusions - Our results are the evidence of the investor's increasing hedging demand for put options when downside market risks are expected. Adding to this, the slope and curvature of the volatility curve may provide important information regarding the timing of market recovery from a nosedive. For financial product distributors, using the dynamic relation among the three key indicators of the implied volatility curve might be helpful in enhancing profit and gaining trust and loyalty. However, it should be noted that our implications are limited since we do not provide rigorous evidence for the predictability power of volatility curves. Meaning, we need to verify whether the slope and curvature of the volatility curve have statistical significance in predicting the market trough. As one of the verifications, for instance, the performance of trading strategy based on information of slope and curvature could be tested. We reserve this for the future research.

Semiconductor industry has been taking the advantage of improvements in process technology in order to maintain reduced device geometries and stringent performance specifications. This results in semiconductor manufacturing processes became hundreds in sequence, it is continuously expected to be increased. This may in turn reduce the yield. With a large amount of investment at stake, this motivates tighter process control and fault diagnosis. The continuous improvement in semiconductor industry demands advancements in process control and monitoring to the same degree. Any fault in the process must be detected and classified with a high degree of precision, and it is desired to be diagnosed if possible. The detected abnormality in the system is then classified to locate the source of the variation. The performance of a fault detection system is directly reflected in the yield. Therefore a highly capable fault detection system is always desirable. In this research, time series modeling of the data from an etch equipment has been investigated for the ultimate purpose of fault diagnosis. The tool data consisted of number of different parameters each being recorded at fixed time points. As the data had been collected for a number of runs, it was not synchronized due to variable delays and offsets in data acquisition system and networks. The data was then synchronized using a variant of Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm. The AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model was then applied on the synchronized data. The ARIMA model combines both the Autoregressive model and the Moving Average model to relate the present value of the time series to its past values. As the new values of parameters are received from the equipment, the model uses them and the previous ones to provide predictions of one step ahead for each parameter. The statistical comparison of these predictions with the actual values, gives us the each parameter's probability of fault, at each time point and (once a run gets finished) for each run. This work will be extended by applying a suitable probability generating function and combining the probabilities of different parameters using Dempster-Shafer Theory (DST). DST provides a way to combine evidence that is available from different sources and gives a joint degree of belief in a hypothesis. This will give us a combined belief of fault in the process with a high precision.

This paper has been written to find facts about the image of earth goddess broadly found in the Southeast Asia. The research findings are as follows: Firstly, the image of earth goddess wringing her hair is phenomenally discovered in both Buddhist temple murals and independent shrines in Thailand. This phenomenon is common in other Indochinese Buddhist countries such as Myanmar, Laos and Cambodia. Secondly, the life of Buddha including the story of the victory over Mara is found in such Buddhist canons as Mahavastu, Buddhacarita, Lalitavistara, Nidanakatha and Patamasambodhi. Among the canons, the story of the victory over Mara is described in differently ways. Earth becomes personified as the goddess in later version. The main cause to expel Mara's army also changes from sound to water. Patamasambodhi is most closely associated with the iconography of the earth goddess of Southeast Asia. Thirdly, Vessantara Jataka and Indian ancient customs tell us that a merit maker performs a rite of pouring water on the earth as an evidence for merit-making. This rite is a key to understanding the meaning of the scene where the earth goddess expels Mara's army into the flood by wringing her hair. The earth goddess is personified from the earth upon which the merit water is poured. Water soaked in her hair is the very holy water poured by the Buddha whenever he made a merit in his former lives. The amount of water flowed from the hair of the earth goddess representing the amount of his merit making was so huge and enough to defeat the Mara's army and for the Buddha to reach the Enlightenment. This legend explains the significance of the notion of merit in the Theravada Buddhist countries such as Thailand and Myanmar where the water pouring rites still take place and the images of the hair wringing earth goddess are commonly discovered. Fourthly, the first image of the earth goddess as the witness of merits for the Buddha appeared in some Gandharan Buddhist sculptures in the form of devotional gesture with her both hands pressed together and the upper half of her body above the ground. The appearance is in accordance with the description of her in the Lalitavistara canon. In later periods, the form changed into various types and finally the image of the earth goddess wringing her hair appeared in Southeast Asia around 11 century C.E. Some researchers argue this image form of the earth goddess shows the influence from China or India. However, the arguments are considered to be hypothetical as they have no strong evidence to prove. Finally, the modern image of earth goddess shows richer and more dynamic expression compared with its predecessors. Especially, outstanding is the standing earth goddess images found in the scene of the victory over Mara in many temple murals of central region of Thailand. The earth goddess in her voluptuous body shape is usually depicted as wringing her hair with her arms wide open in a posture of S curve. This appearance strongly reminds us of the postures of Salabhanjika and Tribhanga originated from Indian art. The adoption presumably has been made to signify her fertile and affluent characteristics.

This article will analyze and forecast important variables and dynamics in global power politics after the war in Ukraine. It tries to use several perspectives to analyze international relations, particularly liberal internationalism and structural realism. In short, core variables are as follows; First, how is the US-led liberal international order and globalization being adjusted? Second, how will the U.S.-China strategic competition, which is the biggest and structural variable, cause changes in the international order in the future? The third variable, how stable are Sino-Russia relations in the context of a structuring U.S.-China-Russia strategic new triangle? Fourth, to what extent will third middle hedging states outside the U.S. and China be able to exercise strategic autonomy in the face of multipolarization? To summarize, the first of these four variables is the largest basic variable at the global political and economic level in terms of its impact on the international community, and it has been led by the United States. The second variable, in terms of actors, seems to be the most influential structural variable in global competition, and the US-China strategic competition is likely to be a long game. Thus the world will not be able to escape the influence of the competition between the two global powers. For South Korea, this second variable is probably the biggest external variable and dilemma. The third variable, the stability of Sino-Russia relations, determines balance of global power in the 21st century. The U.S.-China-Russia strategic new triangle, as seen in the current war in Ukraine, will operate as the greatest power variable in not only global power competition but also changes in the international order. Just as the U.S. is eager for a Sino-Russia fragmentation strategy, such as a Tito-style wedge policy to manage balance of power in the early years of the Cold War, it needs a reverse Kissinger strategy to reset the U.S.-Russia relationship, in order to push for a Sino-Russia splitting in the 21st century. But with the war in Ukraine, it seems that this fragmentation strategy has already been broken. In the context of Northeast Asia, whether or not the stability of Sino-Russia relations depends not only on the United States, but also on the Korean Peninsula. Finally, the fourth variable is a dependent variable that emerged as a result of the interaction of the above three variables, but simultaneously it remains to be seen that this variable is likely to act as the most dynamic and independent variable that can promote multilateralism, multipolarization, and pan-regionalism of the global international community in the future. Taking into account these four variables together, we can make an outlook on the change in the international order.
