This study examines the effects of collaboration type and brand sensitivity on consumer responses toward fashion collaboration brands. For this study, six brands of fashion collaboration were selected by collaboration types: collaboration with same industry (Uniqlo-Jill Sander, H&M-Sonia Rykiel, and Levis-Jean Paul Gaultier) and collaboration with different industries (LG-Prada, Samsung-Armani, and LG-Levis). A selfadministered questionnaire was developed based on the literature that mainly included brand sensitivity, consumer response (brand association, brand values, and purchase intention), and marketing strategic elements in the context of fashion collaboration. For collecting the data, respondents were asked to choose and assess a previously purchased brand. A total of 299 usable data responses were obtained from Korean consumers aged from 15 to 40 years old. The consumer response toward the fashion collaboration brand consisted of four factors: Emotional value, perceived quality, symbolic value, and brand association. The results showed that the collaboration type had the main effect on emotional value, symbolic value, and purchase intention. Brand sensitivity had the main effect on brand association, emotional value, symbolic value, and purchase intention. There was also an interaction effect on emotional value. With respect to strategic marketing elements, product differentiation, premium pricing, and value pricing had partially positive effect on consumer responses; however, promotion had a negative effect on consumer responses (e.g., perceived quality, and emotional value). In addition, collaboration type or brand sensitivity moderated the effect of strategic marketing elements on consumer responses. This study discussed a managerial implication to develop a strategic brand alliance to manage brand equity in the fashion marketplace.

Data generated from sensors are exploding with recent development of IoT. This paradigm shift requires various industry fields that demand instant actions to analyze the arising data on a real-time basis, along with the real-time visualization analysis. As the existing visualization systems, however, perform visualization after storing data, the response time of the server cannot guarantee the ms-level processing that is close to real-time. They also have a problem of destroying data that can be major resources as they do not possess the process resources. Therefore, a smart gardening system that applies a real-time visualization algorithm using IoT sensing data under a gardening environment was designed and implement in this study. The response time of the server was measured to evaluate the performance of the suggested system. As a result, the response speed of the suggested real-time visualization algorithm was guaranteeing the ms-level processing close to real-time.

Dual-use technology, upon its effective development, can be a highly efficient technology that may be utilized for both achieving industry competitiveness and building National Security. Although research needs for such development methodology and call for corresponding efforts have long been proposed, actual outputs have not reached its desired level. Hence, this paper aims to provide more concrete and quantitative process in technology planning used to activate development of dual-use technology, considering dual usability and transferability of such technologies. In such effort, we propose use of patent analysis and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for determining priorities for spin-off defense technology. First, the necessity of R&D and potential spin-off are measured based on patent information. Second, the necessity of R&D results from a quantitative analysis and the potentials spin-off are derived from analysis of patent citations. Then, AHP is used to calculate the importance of evaluating factors, and to assess alternative scores. Finally, we present the result of spin-off priority. A case study on the Korea defense technology is presented to illustrate the proposed method. We expect this study to make contribution in vision making of the military R&D spending.

Artificial intelligence(AI) and blockchain are developing as the core technology leading the Fourth Industrial Revolution. However, AI is still showing limitations in securing and verifying data and explaining the evidence for the results, and blockchain also has some drawbacks such as excessive energy consumption and lack of flexibility in data management. This study analyzed technological limitations of AI and blockchain and convergence trends to overcome them, and finally suggested ways to improve Korea's related policies. Specifically, in terms of R&D reinforcement, we proposed 1) mid- and long-term AI /blockchain convergence research at the national level and 2) blockchain-based AI data platform development. In terms of creating an innovative ecosystem, we also suggested 3) development of AI/blockchain convergence applications by industry, and 4) Start-up support for developing AI/blockchain convergence business models. Lastly, in terms of improving the legal system, we insisted that 5) widening the application of regulatory sandboxes and 6) improving regulations related to privacy protection is necessary.

Organizations of Software development are very important issue on enhancement of a software quality as rapid progress of software industry. Especially there are diverse attempts for enhancement of test maturity of the software organization through some kinds of the test maturity model. But the current test maturity models based on CMM(Capability Maturity Model) lack part of actual testing measurement and only measure level of test maturity. To solve these problems, we suggest 'double V-model' to execute both software development process and test process simultaneously, and also 'test attributes to Maturity Levels Correlation Matrix' for evaluating level of test maturity included with definitions of test attribute and level. That is, we enhance TMM(Test Maturity Model) adopted with 'Improvement Suggestion' of TPI(Test Process Improvement) which is easy the evaluation of test maturity of organization and gives the direction of improvement to level up the test maturity for the measured organization. As a result, we will contribute to level up the test maturity of the organization.

캐리-세이브 가산기 (CSA)는 회로 설계 과정에서 빠른 연산 수행을 위해 가장 널리 이용되는 연산기 중의 하나이다. 그러나, 현재까지 산업체에서 CSA를 이용한 설계는 설계자의 경험에 따른 수작업에 의존하고 있고 그 결과 최적의 회로를 만들기 위해 매우 많은 시간과 노력이 소비되고 있다. 이에 따라 최근 CSA를 기초로 하는 회로 합성 자동화 기법에 대한 연구의 필요성이 대두되고 있는 상황에서, 본 논문은 연산 속도를 최적화하는 효율적인 CSA 할당 알고리즘을 제안한다. 우리는 CSA 할당 문제를 2단계로 접근한다: (1) 연산식의 멀티 비트 입력들만을 고려하여 최소 수행 속도 (optimal-delay)의 CSA 트리를 할당한다; (2) (1)에서 구한 CSA 트리의 수행 속도 증가가 최소화 (minimal increase of delay) 되는 방향으로 CSA들의 캐리 입력 포트들에 나머지 싱글 비트 입력들을 배정한다. 실제 실험에서 우리의 제안된 알고리즘을 적용하여 연산식들의 회로 속도를 회로 면적의 증가 없이 상당한 수준까지 줄일 수 있었다.Abstract Carry-save-adder (CSA) is one of the most widely used implementations for fast arithmetics in industry. However, optimizing arithmetic circuits using CSAs is mostly carried out by the designer manually based on his/her design experience, which is a very time-consuming and error-prone task. To overcome this limitation, in this paper we propose an effective synthesis algorithm for solving the problem of finding an allocation of CSAs with a minimal timing for an arithmetic expression. Specifically, we propose a two step approach: (1) allocating a delay-optimal CSA tree for the multi-bit inputs of the arithmetic expression and (2) determining the assignment of the single-bit inputs to carry inputs of the CSAs which leads to a minimal increase of delay of the CSA tree obtained in step (1). For a number of arithmetic expressions, we found that our approach is very effective, reducing the timing of the circuits significantly without increasing the circuit area.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has a significant attraction throughout various industry sites, along with the development of wireless communication technologies. The typical applications of RFID include medical, logistics, and distribution, and, specially, it is effectively applied to non-contact environments, because it employs radio waves. Although, recently, construction cases of the RFID management systems for the inventory management of the construction materials have been increased, the related researches and experiments for the reused materials are not actively performed. In this paper, we propose the RFID system with the localization function for effectively managing the reuse of the construction materials, adding to the conventional inventory management system. The proposed system consists of a RFID reader unit and a receiver unit, and the location information of the material with the attached RFID tag is obtained by estimating the position of a RFID reader. The distance value for estimating the reader position is calculated using the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) value of Zigbee, and the performance evaluation of the proposed system is performed in the indoor space of $5m{\times}5m$.

Thermoelectric materials have been the topic of intensive research due to their unique dual capability of directly converting heat into electricity or electrical power into cooling or heating. Bismuth telluride ($Bi_2Te_3$) is the best-known commercially used thermoelectric material in the bulk form for cooling and power generation applications In this work we focus on the large scale synthesis of nanostructured undoped bulk nanostructured $Bi_2Te_3$ materials by employing a novel bottom-up solution-based chemical approach. Spark plasma sintering has been employed for compaction and sintering of $Bi_2Te_3$ nanopowders, resulting in relative density of $g{\cdot}cm^{-3}$ while preserving the nanostructure. The average grain size of the final compacts was obtained as 200 nm after sintering. An improved NS bulk undoped $Bi_2Te_3$ is achieved with sintered at $400^{\circ}C$ for 4 min holding time.
