  • It is no news that Nigeria's infrastructure challenge is enormous. In the global ranking, Nigeria ranked low in quantity and quality of its infrastructural provision which has a great impact on the ease of business transaction. Low investments in transportation have brought about the current infrastructural deficit. Recently, the Nigerian government has made effort to address at least to some extent the infrastructural deficit through Public-Private Partnership, but this has not yielded the desired result. Moreover, the sustainability issues relating to railway projects such as, emissions, noise pollution, ecosystem, and other environmental issues calls for urgent attention. Hence, this necessitated consideration on sustainability appraisal for the Chinese rail project in Nigeria. This study reviews sustainability of railway projects built by the Chinese firm in Nigeria with particular emphasis on the environmental and social impact of these projects. The study further identified issues and challenges in project implementation with a particular focus on civil dialogue and community engagements. A detailed literature search was conducted on railway projects and infrastructure by systematically reviewing selected published articles.The analysis of the selected articles identified sustainability issues and potential for improvement of Chinese railway projects and how they contribute to or inhibit competitiveness in the Nigerian railway market. From the literature searched, some of the projects constructed by Chinese firm revealed that there is economic and social impact of railway projects delivered by the Chinese firm in terms of capacity development and knowledge transfer potentiality. For instance, in the just concluded Lagos-Ibadan railway projects, the study gathered that the project brought about 5000 jobs and local staff were trained by the Chinese company, this will boost man power and local content capability. Also, it will significantly improve Nigeria's infrastructure and boost its economic development. The study suggests that Nigerian government should ensure and provide an enabling environment that is conducive for investment on the continent. Peace, improved security, and decent governance are the best conditions for sustainable transportation growth.

  • Despite COVID-19 and the global economic depression, cosmetics exports are continuously increasing due to the growth of Hallyu consumption overseas. Thus, systematic research is needed to determine what impact Hallyu has on cosmetics. Many studies have been conducted on psychological distance, Hallyu preference, and the overall Korean product image, but research related to the image of cosmetics has been insufficient. AMOS 26.0 was used to empirically analyze the impact of cultural distance, social distance, and Hallyu preference on the national image and the impact of the country's image on the image of cosmetics among females experienced with Hallyu in Indonesia and Malaysia. The empirical analysis showed that cultural distance, social distance, and Hallyu preference had a positive effect on the national image, and the national image also had a positive effect on the image of cosmetics. Since Hallyu has a positive indirect effect on the image of cosmetics, it strengthens the competitiveness of cosmetics companies in overseas markets. In Indonesia, only cultural distance and Hallyu preference were found to affect the national image. However, in Malaysia, all variables affected the national image. Thus, even the same Hallyu content could have different effects on the national and cosmetic images in each country. Therefore, strategies for utilizing different Hallyu contents that are suitable for each country are needed to revitalize Korean cosmetics in overseas markets.

  • In Korea, there are many attempts to automate architectural design tasks, focusing on government-led national R&D projects and private operators, in order to enhance global competitiveness and productivity of the building service industry. However, according to a survey of architectural design office practitioners, only 25% (9 out of 37) have used it, suggesting that there are fewer cases of practical use in the field compared to research and investment in automation technology development, and there are discrepancies between automation and technology development items required in the field. In this study, the priority of automation of planning and design work of architectural design office practitioners is derived, and a comparative analysis is conducted with domestic architectural design automation service items based on the priority. A survey was conducted on practitioners of domestic architectural design offices to derive automation priorities for 19 items of architectural planning and design work. Based on the derived priorities, the degree of reflection of the working-level automation needs of domestic services was confirmed by comparing them with the domestic architectural planning and design automation service items. As a result, it was confirmed that domestic architectural planning and design automation services did not properly reflect the priority of planning and design work automation of architectural design office practitioners. This suggests that it is necessary to reflect the priorities derived in this study in technology development in order to increase the cases of practical use of the automation technology in the working environment and improve the productivity of service.

  • 세계 SW시장은 급성장하고 있지만, 국내시장이 글로벌 강국에 영향을 주기에는 많이 부족하다. 인터넷 속도 1위국임에도 SW성장이 더딘 이유는 무엇일까? 그것은 국내 SW산업발전의 기반이 마련되지 않았기 때문이다. 이로써 정부는 SW중심사회를 선언하여 각 분야의 정책을 준비하였는데 공공부문 SW분할발주 제도를 IT프로젝트에 적용하려는 움직임이 있어 전체 SW산업의 약 30%를 차지하는 공공부문을 중심으로 SW분할발주 제도 시행시 예상되는 SI프로젝트 문제점 및 개선방안을 연구하고자 한다. SW분할발주 제도는 기획~설계와 개발~구현 단계로 구분됨에 따라 SI프로젝트에 적용함에 있어 문제가 발생될 수 있다. 그러므로 프로젝트와 분리 분할발주, 선진사례 및 분할발주 유관산업 프로젝트 사례를 분석하였으며 제도적, 기술적, 관리적 관점에서 개선방안을 도출하였다. 본 논문은 IT프로젝트에 종사하는 이들의 SW제값받기 및 환경개선을 기대하고 SW분할발주의 제도 시행 전 공급자와 수요자가 인식해야 하는 문제점에 대한 해결방안을 제공하여 SW산업과 SI프로젝트의 경쟁력을 강화하는 체계 형성의 방향을 제시한다.

  • 20세기에 세계도시 개념이 전지구적으로 확산되었다면 21세기는 창조도시로 패러다임이 변하고 있다. 이에 각 도시들은 경쟁력을 갖추기 위해 경제 중심에서 경제와 문화가 결합된 창조적인 콘텐츠를 개발하기 위해 노력하고 있는 추세이다. 본 논문은 이러한 시대적 흐름에 부응한 남양주시의 책자 발간 사업을 크게 세 가지 관점에서 고찰하였다. 논의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 남양주시의 책자 발간 사업은 1단계로 시민의 참가를 유도하는 '향토 인문학 강좌'와 '문예공모전'을 추진하였다. 그러나 창조계층의 인프라가 협소하고 홍보가 부족하여 기대한 결과를 얻지 못하였다. 둘째, 시민의 참획을 유도하기 위해 2단계로 취재원 교육을 실시하였다. 시민은 책자 발간의 주역이기 때문에 취재와 관한 이론과 연습은 필수 요소이기 때문이다. 셋째, 기획위원회는 3단계로 시민 발간 위원회를 조직하여 분과별로 활동하게 하였다. 그 결과 시민들은 창조도시를 만들기 위한 인프라를 구축하였으며 남양주시의 명인 명품 명소 책자 발간을 주도할 수 있었다. 앞으로의 과제는 관과 시민이 협력하여 문화콘텐츠 사업을 실천하는 것이다.

  • Without a solid marketing system in placed, the fashion industry cannot flourish on out-standing design or technology alone. Even though the significance of collecting and analyzing information, merchandising, and retail distribution is recognized, these functions are not firmly rooted or prevalent in our industry. In contrast, Italy which possesses similar demographic traits such as the lack of natural resources and other physical factors has succeed-ed in globalizing its fashion market by responding swiftly and exercising flexiblity to its constantly changing consumer demand. This in turn has earned Italy the competitive edge in the global fashion arena. Italy's unique management skills and operation know-how, along with successful market strategies come into play in bringing competitiveness to Italy's fashion market. Firstly, smaller companies with ability to adopt swiftly to the ever changing market. Secondly, fashion friendly social environment. Thirdly, niche marketing through highly specialized system and differentiation. Fourthly, timeless innovation through intense corporate competition. Lastly, establishment of foundations to support the industry through diverse networking. The alone building blocks have formed a basis for erecting an unparalleled market with a reputation for excellence in design and quality in the global fashion world. This study has examined how Italy's fashion industry has evolved from an underdeveloped textile business into a cutting edge fashion in-dustry. Italy's unique business processes and practices were studied to come up with a collection and merchandising ideas in a niche market. By selecting this venue we are able to continuously grow and develop in a market with diverse consumer needs. To analyze the Italian fashion market, data from 3 institutions were utilized, namely, CIT-ER which has provided consumer trends and sales analysis, SITA,a data service provided statistics from the textile and apparel businesses, and NBI has also furnished valuable data. Italian consumer preference, buying behavior, consumer profile, retail channels and other related data from the above institutions has formed a backbone for market segmentation and target markets, and as a result, we were able to zero in on the type of consumer, produce, pricing and retail channels for our womenswear. Going forward the direction is to elevate product image and pretige, and create syn-ergy between related industries, and at the same note, in order to develop internationally recognized brands such as Max Mara and Benetton. Certain elements such as the specialization of the fashion industry, alon-g with fashion-related data base and systems support, and most importantly experts with acute fashion sense and capacity to analyze pertinent data are in need. I firmly believe that we can achieve Italy's level in the fashion market with support from the government and unrelenting effort within the industry itself, and hope that this report can prove to be useful.
