Today's businesses are experiencing intensive global competition and the most accelerating pace of change ever. Competitors have sprung up that were not even on the business's radar. This environment impacts all decisions and strategies as business try to dominate their market or their industry merely to survive. So recently most of organizations are considering on building the data warehouse system to pursuit the business intelligence. We need the proper model to guide the approach to plan building data warehouse system when we want to plan it in considering the organizational status. Therefore we suggest a model to decide the approach to build data warehouse considering the project's environmental factors. First we review Ronald S. Swift(1998)'s five environmental factors that we have to consider when planing to build data warehouse. Then we propose a model to decide DW approach by the degree of those factors to be measured. DW approaches in this model are classified in conservative approach, technological approach, increasing approach. enterprise- wide approach, and ideal approach.

It is currently that there are increasing especially of F&B's revenue well as room's. Thus, Hotel have set foods adapt to customers' need. This paper is targeting on figuring out for food choice factors of tourist hotel customers. Results on this are 1ike follows; Firstly, major factors on the food choice are different by its style respectively. \circled1 Menu's diversity and nutrition degrees have highly influence with Korean sty1e. \circled2 Freshness, Food's degree of temperature and appearance have highly influence with Japanese style. \circled3 Nutritious balance and its appearance have highly influence Chinese style. Secondly, rest factors on the food choice are shown that service factor is generally important in these three style.

The recent fast change of information technology and business environments has led to increasing effort to achieve the business goals by using company resources effectively and efficiently Strategic Information Systems Planning is the first and significant step support the objectives. However, the present situation is that the SISP works are performed only by the methodological process of some chosen consulting house without a full considerations of organizational environment and system development characteristics. So, this study's purpose is to improve SISP works by observing the organizational environment factors through planning cases. This paper is composed of investigating the organizational characteristics and the additional problems from the analysis of three cases on the basis of 12 organization context factors founded by previous studies. And the conclusive part presents the organizational considerations according to each planning steps. This works will be used framework of SISP on the contrary previous studies only found organizational factors related to SISP works by questionary research methods. The more fundermental and multi-dimentioned researches is to be expected as more enterprises perform SISP works.

The roughness effects are very important due to the presence of interacting asperities in partial lubrication regime. An average Reynolds equation using flow factors is very useful to determine the effects of surface roughness on mixed lubrication. In this paper, the pressure flow factors for surfaces having Gaussian and non-Gaussian distribution of roughness height are evaluated in terms of various kurtosis. The effect of kurtosis on pressure flow factors is investigated using random rough surface generated numerically. The pressure flow factor increases with increasing kurtosis in mixed lubrication regime (h/$\sigma$<3). As h/$\sigma$ increases, the pressure flow factors approach to 1 asymptotically regardless of kurtosis.

As society proceeds rapidly toward a knowledge-oriented stage, knowledge as an intangible asset has gained increasing importance. Companies increase their competitiveness and generate extra value through continuous investments in the management of intellectual property (IP). Thus, the prime concerns of companies have been protection of their technological innovation output through filing for IP rights, and maximization of their interests through utilization of intangible assets. Despite the importance of technological innovation in the management of a company, few studies have analyzed the key factors in the management of IP and activities for technological innovation. This study aims to derive policy implications for managing IP and effective capacity building for technological innovation. For this purpose, the author has employed empirical tests to identify the major factors influencing the direction of technological innovations in a company.

The number of people using Seoul metropolitan subway is continually raising as the population and cars keep increasing. But recently, many people have a feeling of anxiety about several problems such as a fire and air pollution. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to propose a method which can improve the customer satisfaction. There are lots of positive and negative factors that influence people. To understand and analyze these factors, we conducted a questionnaire survey of people who usually use subway. From the obtained data, principle component analysis and K-means clustering method were implemented. Finally, for customer satisfaction, the factors which are needed to be concerned or solved are identified using cross-tabulation.

Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy among males worldwide, and is the second leading cause of cancer death among men in United States. According to GLOBOCAN (2012), an estimated 1.1 million new cases and 307,000 deaths were reported in 2012. The reasons for the increase of this disease are not known, but increasing life expectancy and modified diagnostic techniques have been suggested as causes. The established risk factors for this disease are advancing age, race, positive family history of prostate cancer and western diet (use of fat items). Several other risk factors, such as obesity, physical activity, sexual activity, smoking and occupation have been also associated with prostate cancer risk, but their roles in prostate cancer etiology remain uncertain. This mini-review aims to provide risk factors, disease knowledge, prevalence and awareness about prostate cancer.

Background: Breast cancer in Kazakhstan and its Kyzylorda oblast is the most prevalent cancer in women and features increasing trends of incidence. The aim of study was to reveal risk factors for breast cancer among women of Kyzylorda oblast of Kazakhstan. Materials and Methods: A hospital-based case-control study was conducted at Kyzylorda oblast Oncology Center, including 114 cases of breast cancer and 196 controls. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: Social and behavioral risk factors for breast cancer were evaluated, among which unfavorable living conditions, chronic stress, unilateral breastfeeding, breastfeeding less than 3 months and over 2 years, abortions, and hereditary predisposition were found to be related with increased breast cancer risk. Breastfeeding for 6-24 months was found to be protective. Conclusions: The findings may have significant impact on activity planning aimed towards breast cancer reduction among women in Kazakhstan.

Mammography utilization is low in Iran compared with other countries. Here a cross-sectional survey design was used to investigate psycho-social and individual factors associated with mammography among 400 women asymptomatic of breast cancer. The study was carried out at the four outpatient clinics of Tehran during the period from July through October, 2009. We found that mammography screening was related to higher self-efficacy and women's occupation. Future tailored interventions on potential psycho-social determinants and specific demographic factors are critical in increasing mammography screening rates among Iranian women.
