Today, IT outsourcing has become a very important management strategy of implementing information systems in organizations. This paper investigates the risks and strategic recognition as a key factors effecting on the degree of outsourcing, Specifically the risks of outsourcing and its four components-control risk, economical risk, technical risk, relational risk-are examined to be a negative effect on the degree of outsourcing. And strategic recognition about outsourcing is examined to be a mediator factor between the risks and the degree of outsourcing. To empirically test these relationships, data are gathered from senior IT managers in 62 corporations. Results of this study show that the degree of outsourcing is strongly influenced by control risk, economical risk, relational risk. But technical risk does not influence on the degree of outsourcing. And strategic recognition about outsourcing is found that is mediator concern with the risks and the degree of outsourcing. The results indicate to provide a good framework to minimize the risks for IT outsourcing success.

The intra prediction technique is the one of the key factors to the success of H.264. There are nine optional prediction modes for each $4{\times}4$ luma block and 4 modes for each $16{\times}16$ luma block. To reduce the intra mode bits efficiently, the most probable mode (MPM) is estimated by using the intra modes of the adjacent blocks, since intra modes for neighboring $4{\times}4$ luma blocks are correlated. In this paper, a new method for estimating the MPM is proposed by using the statistical distribution of intra modes of adjacent intra blocks. Experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve a coding gain of about 0.1dB.

Based upon mail survey method, this empirical research aims to compare the CAD education in four countries in terms of education conditions, education methods, and education performance. Results show that Korea is similar to Japan in many ways, while it differ from U.S.A. or Germany in several respects. Putting less importance in CAD course, Korean professors of CAD were found to be relatively young and deficient of teaching experience and/or industrial experience. And CAD course, which is not compulsory but elective one, is taught in a more crowded (junior) class with less satisfactory hardware and software. In the education goal or contents, the CAD courses in Korea lack real world problems or applications, concentrating less on students-based or problem-based learning methods than Germany or U.S.A.. Consequently, Korean CAD education is outperformed by German or U.S. one in educational performance both in skill improvement and in attitude enhancement.

UE (User Experience) 조직이나, UI (User Interface or User Interaction) 조직, 사용성 조직이 2000 년대에 들어서 국내에 많이 활성화 되었다. 국내에서는 UE 조직이 구축 될 때에 전략적인 계획에 의해 형성이 되기 보다는 스타일 중심으로 디자인이 부서에 소수인원으로 시작이 되거나, 또는 개발부서의 지원 부서로 시작되다가 확대 되는 경우가 많아 비효율적으로 구축이 되거나 비효율적으로 운영이 되는 경우가 많았다. 본 연구에서는 UE 팀이 조직화 될 때에 고려해야 할 점에 대해 연구를 하였다. 조직의 구축 단계, 역할, 프로세스 등을 중심으로 연구를 하였고 효과적으로 팀을 구축하는 데 중요한 요소에 대해 연구를 하였다. UE 조직의 성숙도를 파악하는 것이 중요하고, UE 팀의 차별화 포지션을 파악하는 것으로 고객과 제공해야 할 것과 방법론을 잘 파악해야 한다 이 결과는 UE 관련한 조직을 구축하거나 운영을 하는데 활용될 수 있다.

Reengineering, also known as a business process redesign, involves a fundamental rethinking, and often a radical redesign, of an entire business process or a set of process to achieve dramatic improvements. The central paradox of reengineering is that its own advantages constitute the greatest threat to its success. For reengineering to be the right choice, the organization must have real capacities to embrace changes across the board. The key is to begin with, and to preserve, a vision of the new order, which drives this structured approach, and is in turn calibrated by that approach. However, in most cases of these calibrations, the empirical evidences on the effect of determinants in the reengineering are required. Seemingly, the research results in this area are scarcely verified. This article tried to search the effect of four dimensions of the reengineering toward the performance of reengineering. The results showed that the factors of the organization behavior and of the methodology/operation had more affected on the performance.

This survey paper aims to compare two significant figures in the history of Haute Couture e.g, Paul Poiret and Coco Chanel, who played a leading role between 1910 and 1930. It is found here that they have common features with respect to giving freedom to body through costume, enlarging Garconne Mode, creating more value of Costume Jewelry, exploiting advertisement strategy using models, proving exotic styles, and last but not the least contributing to Haute Couture. The research shows, however, that Poiret differs from Chanel in that he made most of various natural colors whereas Chanel used black or beige colors that had been rarely used woman wear previously. They also differed in using fabric, permitting copy by others, ingredients and bottling of perfume, meaning of silhouette. This kind of comparative research is expected to provide more understanding of fashion history and to contribute to more rigorous analysis of key success factors of designers in his or her age of fashion.

This study intends to analyze the trade competitiveness of Korean films in international markets. Under environmental of film industry, Korean films could be doing better. But the Key success factors Korean films in the foreign markets are the improvement of contents Quality and the diversification of trade market. Namely, Our films is mainly exporting Japanese market and the import depends upon American films. In case the trade specialization index(TSI), The international competitiveness of Korean films shows lower import specialization, by virtue of export increasing of Japan, Europe and other markets in 2000's. On the other hand, The Export Market Share has shown similar pattern to main markets except Japanese market, and the import was almost similar to trend in foreign markets except American films. Consequently the present film strategies and polices that delight limited markets will not be compete in global markets, Korean films or contents is merely called by that name.

In recent, the rapid convergence of telecommunication and broadcasting has been considered as one of the hot issues in the IT industry. This convergence will provide telecom operators with both opportunities and threatens. This is because that telecom operators can enter the broadcasting industry, whereas broadcasters will also have a chance to provide telecom services. This work aims to discuss the business strategy for telecom operators to provide a TV VOD service, one of the convergence services between telecommunication and broadcasting, through the high-speed internet which is so much served in Korea. It seems that this service will achieve two business goals, namely "to minimise an additional investment" and "to find out a new benefit source", by fully utilising a current high-speed internet infrastructure. Finally, this paper mainly contains the market overview of in telecom and broadcasting service, the definition of TV VOD service and the necessity for this service, a market forecasting and the provision strategy of major telecom operators, and key success factors and a benefit model.

Mega-Y project is very important for a company to gain a competitive advantage in markets or to achieve drastic change in the internal processes. It stems from the company strategy and annual management goals or key performance measures, and is proceeded by the cross-functional team. This paper presents the success factors and implementation process of the Mega-Y projects. The implementation process is presented in 5 steps, including project selection, cross-functional team building, establishment of the master plan, development and execution of sub-projects, and project completion. A case study on the cost reduction project of aircraft development is presented to help for the practitioners to deploy the implementation process introduced in this paper.
