Various studies have proven that human is the biggest challenge in the process of transitioning to agile. Culture and mindset are two critical elements of human factors causing issues in agile environment. This study involved thirty-two (32) agile practitioners from nineteen (19) country to validate the issues from human factors. The purpose of the study is to discover human factors that required more attention and factors that give a low impact on the agile environment. Furthermore, this paper presents research analysis on some of popular human factors such as collaboration, hierarchy, communication and other critical factors which company may face. The results of this analysis can be used as a guide for IT organization to consider the critical challenges they may encounter.

The impact of social networking is varied from good to bad. Online activities have also been categorized into pros and cons of social networking, either as reported as hiding Internet activities among teenagers or killing loneliness among elderly. In terms of relationships, there have been argument over its closeness and quality of an online relationship in Internet settings. Looking at the contradiction in an innovative interaction between classic community communication and social media, there is an unknown scent of the future struggling and challenging both human communication and relationships in the presence of digital culture. This research uses Diffusion of Innovation to study the wide and continuous spread of digital culture in human communication; and, Media Dependency in learning and structuring the cognitive, affective and behavioral effects of social media on each person uses the media in different ways. This research will be using online survey to gain opinions from a social network site as an update of views and reflection of self-awareness to all levels of people. Social media like Facebook (FB) is perceived as a good tool of communication that it is able to bring closeness among the family members. The results show that social media like FB brings positive impact towards family members; it would help to build a better and harmonic society; and, relationships among family members and communication shall be improved and enhanced to the level of a united society.

Recent developments and trends in the electric power consumption clearly indicate an increasing use of DC in end-user equipment. According to the trends, new DC power distribution systems have been researched and developed although we presently enjoy a predominantly AC power distribution system. We can use various grounding schemes in DC distribution system as well as in AC distribution system to protect human body and equipments. However, we need to evaluate carefully which grounding scheme is appropriate for a specific system before applying those schemes. In this paper, we analyze the human safety and system effect according to various grounding schemes in Low Voltage DC (LVDC) distribution system. Some components in LVDC distribution system are modeled and computer simulations are conducted by using ElectroMagnetic Transient Program (EMTP).

This paper describes several current research activities and the field techniques for the prevention of human errors during the operation of nuclear power plants(NPPs). The human aspects such as 'fitness for the duties', 'job competence and suitability', 'types of communication', 'behaviors of field workers', 'teamwork of main control room crews', 'task procedures', etc. have been investigated for improving the performance of operating personnel in NPPs. We decide to develop a set of the complementary techniques for the reduction of human errors. The set of techniques developed includes teamwork criteria, jobs fitness analysis, procedure enhancement guide, 3-way communication, campaign posters, a behavior based safety program, a procedure guideline, and a task hazard identification method for the field practitioners in NPPs. These can offer a set of significant human error countermeasures to be considered for analyzing and reducing human error in NPPs as well as other fields of industry.

본 연구의 목적은 간호대학생의 인간관계와 커뮤니케이션 교육의 효과를 파악하기 위하여 수행되었다. 대상자는 G 시에 소재한 U 대학교 간호학과 1학년 재학생, 82명이었다. 자료수집은 2019년 9월 3일부터 12월 6일까지였고, SPSS / WIN 21.0 프로그램을 사용하여 기술통계, Shapiro-Wilk, Paired t-test를 하였다. 대상자의 인간관계와 커뮤니케이션 교육 전·후의 의사소통능력(t=-2.87, p=.005), 의사소통역량 자가진단(t=-3.80, p=<.001)은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었으나, 대인 간 의사소통(t=-0.09, p=.931)과 대인관계(t=-0.83, p=.409)는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 의사소통능력과 기술은 간호대학생뿐만 아니라 실무 간호사에게도 중요한 간호영역이므로 지속적인 의사소통교육이 필요하다. 따라서 간호대학생의 의사소통능력 향상을 위한 단계적 프로그램을 개발하여 저학년부터 고학년까지 연계되어 지속적이고 반복적인 교육을 적용하고 그 효과를 검증하는 후속연구가 필요하다.

햅틱 인터페이스 장치는 가상공간 상에서 얻어지는 시각적 효과와 더불어 힘(촉각)을 전달하여 사용자에게 현실감을 줄 수 있는 장치이다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 용도로 사용할 수 있는 2 차원 햅틱 인터페이스 장치를 설계 및 제작하고, 입체영상 시스템과 연동하여 오락실에서 흔히 볼 수 있는 에어하키 시스템을 가상현실 기술로 구현하였다. 이때 적절한 모델링과 햅틱 렌더링을 통하여 가상 에어하키 공을 칠 때 사용자가 핸들을 잡은 손으로 느끼는 충격과 반력을 2 차원 햅틱 인터페이스 장치를 통하여 느낄 수 있도록 하였다. 구현된 시스템의 시연을 통하여 공과 핸들의 충돌 시 공이 튕겨 나가는 방향과 속도가 실제와 유사하고 공과 핸들에서 충돌이 일어날 때 실제와 상당히 유사한 느낌은 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다.

This study tried to the answer to the question : “How does the human communication happen between clinical nurse and patient\ulcorner” To answer that, a micro-ethnographic research method was used and I performed field work at the orthopedic ward in one Korean metropolitan city. After analysis of interview data, observational data and field notes, I could understand that clinical nurse-patient communication performed for clinical decision making, providing patient education and emotional support. Prepared nurse communicate with patient more effectively, eventually can establish more trust relationship with patient. Conclusively I discussed about the way of nurse's skill acquisition, need of collaborative conference with doctor and nurse, and curriculum development to promote nurses's understanding of human.

The amniotic membrane is the innermost layer of fetal membrane and is attached to the chorion in the placenta. This membrane has been used for nearly a century in varied fields such as ophthalmology, reconstructive surgery, and burn treatment. In this case report, we used a human amniotic membrane to repair an iatrogenic oroantral communication that occurred during the extraction of the patient's right upper second molar. A splint was given after the perforation was covered with human amniotic membrane and healing was clinically evaluated at various intervals. The outcome of the study revealed that the human amniotic membrane was an efficient graft material for repairing the defect caused by an iatrogenic oroantral communication following tooth extraction.

InterSpaceTM is an advanced networked virtual reality system that presents shared three-dimensional computer graphics (CG) worlds via the Internet where multiple users can enjoy synchronous communications with voice, video and text. Users can control their avatars as a surrogate interface. In InterSpace users can walk around and interact with other people and interact with contents. In this paper, we describe the function-distributed architecture used in InterSpace. The architecture enables flexible configuration of server functions and load distribution. It also allows users to select media and client PCs to switch servers dynamically.

A concept of Deep Level Situation Understanding is proposed to realize human-like natural communication (called casual communication) among multi-agent (e.g., humans and robots/machines), where the deep level situation understanding consists of surface level understanding (such as gesture/posture understanding, facial expression understanding, speech/voice understanding), emotion understanding, intention understanding, and atmosphere understanding by applying customized knowledge of each agent and by taking considerations of thoughtfulness. The proposal aims to reduce burden of humans in humans-robots interaction, so as to realize harmonious communication by excluding unnecessary troubles or misunderstandings among agents, and finally helps to create a peaceful, happy, and prosperous humans-robots society. A simulated experiment is carried out to validate the deep level situation understanding system on a scenario where meeting-room reservation is done between a human employee and a secretary-robot. The proposed deep level situation understanding system aims to be applied in service robot systems for smoothing the communication and avoiding misunderstanding among agents.
