  • Objectives These prescribing recommendations have been written to guide clinicians on the appropriate use of Bangpungtongseong-san(BT) and Bangkihwangki-tang(BH) in the treatment of obesity. These recommendation are aimed at providing evidence based information concerning diagnosis and management of obesity. Methods We collected all relevant references about treatment effect of BT and BH on obesity in the forms of meta-analysis, systematic review, randomized controlled trial, case-control study, observational study and practice guideline from international and domestic databases and paper journals. We examined treatment effect, side effects, recommendations for dose, indication and contraindication of BT and BH. Results The treatment effect of BT and BH on obesity has been proved through clinical trial. BT is indicated for obese patients (Body mass index, $BMI{\geq}25$) with strong abdomen and a tendency to constipation, BH is indicated for obese patients ($BMI{\geq}25$) with a fair skinned, soft muscled, edematous and sweat easily. Conclusion We wish the information contained in theses recommendations will help clinicians reach a reasonable and beneficial decision with evidence-based results. Further studies are strongly needed to develop better treatment strategies for herbal medicines on obesity.

  • The methods of robust design optimization (RDO) and reliability-based robust design optimization (RBRDO) were implemented in the present study. RBRDO is an integrated method that accounts for the design robustness of an objective function and for the reliability of constraints. The objective function in RBRDO is expressed in terms of the mean and standard deviation of an original objective function. Thus, a multi-objective formulation is employed. The regressive approximate models are generated via the moving least squares method (MLSM) and constraint-feasible moving least squares method (CF-MLSM), which make it possible to realize the feasibility regardless of the multimodality/nonlinearity of the constraint function during the approximate optimization processes. The regression model based RBRDO is newly devised and its numerical characteristics are explored using the design of an actively controlled ten bar truss structure.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze elementary students' perception on science classes using abductive strategies. The participants were composed of 21 students(10 boys, 11 girls) from K Elementary School in Busan Metropolitan City. They were asked for questionnaires developed by researchers after 20 times of reframed science lessons using abductive strategies. The results were as follows. First, the science classes using abductive strategies were effective to improve students' interest(ave.=4.19) on science. Second, the analysis results on questionnaires asking utility of the classes showed the students' positive reactions to science lessons using abductive strategies. It was thought that the classes had a positive effect on all components of utility, i.e., overall science(4.48), generating hypothesis(4.19), conceptual understanding(4.19), and meta-cognition(3.76). Third, students perceived positively improvement on the science classes. The components of improvement, i.e., creativity(4.19), concentration(4.29), transfer(3.76), comprehension(4.29) were perceived positively by students. Fourth, students' satisfaction on the sciences classes showed ave.=3.71. Last, students expressed satisfaction on the science classes using abductive strategies and experienced a change of thinking about attitude toward science.

  • Using object relationship table, this study proposes an efficient indexing technique for accessing both aggregation and inheritance hierarchies in object- oriented databases. This indexing technique uses the information on the aggregation and inheritance relationship between classes and the information on referencing instances as meta data. As a result, the technique makes it possible to effectively evaluates various queries navigating between tables. The study compares the proposed technique with the existing indexing techniques and discusses its useful- ness. It also provides the result of simulating its performance in terms of storage and retrieval cost.

  • This study reviewed academic research related to the cyberethics in the field of humanities and social sciences. The most active and vibrant field of cyberethics is Pedagogy, followed by Law, communication, philosophy, social welfare science, sociology, business administration and psychology. In the field of cyberethics every major has different research themes. The research trend of cyberethics does not reflect distinctiveness of cyberspace, remaining in previous ethical philosophy. Further, it just establishes abstract morality. In the overall research of cyberethics lacks recognition of information human rights, therefore, it shows little tendency to living ethics. Moral recognition based on information human rights should be emphasized, and multi-disciplinary study is requested for future studies.
