The purpose of this study is to examine the causal relationships among leadership, appraisal, reward, knowledge quality, knowledge management system(KMS) quality, and KMS use. The results of data analysis by structured equation model(SEM) indicate that leadership significantly influences appraisal and reward. Appraisal affects reward too. Reward and knowledge quality affect KMS Use, but leadership, appraisal, and KMS quality don't affect KMS use. Based on the results, the theoretical and practical implications of this study are discussed.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate influencing factors of using Korean medicine services (KMS) using the 2017 Korean Medicine Utilization Survey (KMUS). Methods: Demographic statistics of the survey were summarized and influencing factors of the KMS experience and the intention to visit KMS were analyzed using logistic regression model with complex sample design. Influencing factors were specified based on Andersen's behavioral model of health care utilization and factors associated with individual recognitions of KMS. Additionally, using the ordinary logistic regression model without complex sample design, the survey data were analyzed to compare the results. Results: In the logistic regression analysis, sex, age, health condition, presence of chronic disease, a degree of knowledge about Korean Medicine, and a view about herbal medicine safety were statistically significant both in the KMS experience, and the intention to visit KMS. Marital status was statistically significant in the KMS experience, while family income, a view about the cost of KMS were statistically significant in the intention to visit KMS. Conclusion: Individual recognitions of KMS and enabling components should be considered when establishing KMS policies. In addition, future studies analyzing KMUS need to take into account the complex sample design features of the survey to avoid statistically misleading results.

As many companies have recognized the importance of Knowledge Management(KM), they have invested lots of their resources in developing and deploying Knowledge Management Systems(KMS) to organize and share knowledge. When they implemented KMS in their organizations, most of them had high expectations about KMS at tile beginning. However, as time passed, its usage was rapidly declined. There have been many attempts to increase its usage. Many research works have tried to find solutions from users and organizations viewpoints, instead of the actual usage data itself. In order to assess the usage level of KMS, they have normally utilized user's attitudes toward KMS by assuming that user attitudes have strong relationship with actual uses of KMS. The purpose of this study is to assess tile impacts of user, organizational, and job characteristics on the satisfaction and the usage levels of KMS. Unlike other studies, this study is to explore impact factors which affect the usage level of KMS in organizations by using actual KMS log data as well as user's attitudes.

This study is to suggest conditions for mitigating techno-stress due to the adoption of the knowledge management system(KMS). Specifically, the study suggests that techno overload and techno complexity are negative factors on the intention to use KMS, and suggests that authentic leadership and feedback mitigate techno-stress. We conducted an online survey in May 2021 of employees in organizations that applied KMS, and obtained 417 samples. We performed the structural equation modeling of AMOS 22.0 for hypothesis testing and analyzed the main effect and the moderating effect. The result is as follows. First, techno overload and techno complexity reduced the intention to use the KMS. Second, authentic leadership increased the intention to use the KMS and mitigated techno overload and techno complexity. Third, feedback moderated the negative relationship between techno-stress and intention to use the KMS. The study has implications from the perspective of suggesting the strategic direction (authentic leadership and feedback) at the organizational level for mitigating techno-stress, which may be a problem when introducing and applying a KMS from the perspective of organization employees.

Research papers published in the Korean Meteorological Society (KMS) journals by the members of KMS since the establishment of KMS in 1963 in the field of atmospheric physics are summarized. A significant number of research papers published in other international journals are also cited in this paper to highlight the achievement of the KMS members in international academic community. The aim is to illustrate the historical development of research activities of the KMS members in the field of atmospheric physics, and indeed it is found that the KMS members have made enormous progress in research publications quantitatively and qualitatively in the field of atmospheric physics. In detail, however, observational studies of aerosol physical properties and cloud and precipitation physics were very active, and studies on cloud physics parameterization for cloud modeling were highly recognized in the world, but observational and theoretical studies of atmospheric radiation were relatively lacking and solicit more contribution from the KMS members.

Construction companies recently have been highly interested in developing information system as following the advanced of IT technology. Especially, with advent of knowledge-based paradigm, Knowledge Management System(KMS) has been actively built. However, current KMS is not optimized and not satisfied because KMS is not integrated with existing information system and has problems of method of knowledge management. The objectives of this research is to develop integrated KMS, which synthesizes knowledge and functions of scattered information system. This research investigates current KMS and analyzes the requirements of KMS. Based on the requirements, the utilization of construction portal is suggested. And integrated knowledge management method, which has connections with applications in construction portal, is suggested and the system is developed.

In order to develop yeast strains which can effectively produce ethanol from cellulosic hydrolyzates, protoplast fusion between Candida sp. KM-09-135 and Saccharomyces cweoisiue SM-07 was carried out and obtained the excellent fusant KMS-23. Fusant KMS-23 showed the optimal growth temperature and ethanol productivity at $37^{\circ}C$, and assimilated xylose, cellobiose, maltose and raffinose as fermentative sugars. Cell size of the fusant was about 1.2 times greater than that of KM-09-135 and 1.5 times SM-07. DNA content of fusant was 1.3 times higher than that of SM-07 and similar with KM-09-135. Fusant KMS-23 produced 2.57% (v/v) ethanol from saccharified wheat bran containing 6.44% (w/v) of reducing sugar, which was 1.3 times higher than parent strains under the same conditions.

This paper proposes how to build an expert profile database in KMS, which provides the information of expertise that each expert possesses in the organization. To manage tacit knowledge in a knowledge management system, recent researches in this field have shown that it is more applicable in many ways to provide expert search mechanisms in KMS to pinpoint experts in the organizations with searched expertise so that users can contact them for help. In this paper, we develop a framework to automate expert classification using a text categorization technique called Vector Space Model, through which an expert database composed of all the compiled profile information is built. This approach minimizes the maintenance cost of manual expert profiling while eliminating the possibility of incorrectness and obsolescence resulted from subjective manual processing. Also, we define the structure of expertise so that we can implement the expert classification framework to build an expert database in KMS. The developed prototype system, "Knowledge Portal for Researchers in Science and Technology," is introduced to show the applicability of the proposed framework.
