The city of Suwon has introduced a dockless bike for the first time in Korea. In this study, a questionnaire was conducted for citizens to suggest improvement through satisfaction analysis. As a result of the survey, 88 % of respondents awarded the presence of a bike, and 90 % answered positively in terms of bike policy; whereas mature civic ethics showed an low satisfaction. For the purpose of usage, approximately 75 % of users mainly used for commuting, business, shopping, and the connection with mass transit. In the result of the primary means of a trip, a private car was most preferred before operation; However, it was found that mode transition has been actively carried out. This suggests significant implications for implementing sustainable urbanism. Meanwhile, The level of satisfaction significantly differed in the field of payment method, charge, usage guidance and publicity by an occupation and age groups commonly. Satisfaction in bike maintenance was statistically differed by an occupation. Satisfaction in Rental-return and registration procedures showed differences by an age groups. The results of this study will contribute to establishment related policies and to more activate dockless shared bike.

Since people have come to access more and more information about products with the proliferation of the Internet, more and more customer-to-customer e-marketplaces are being introduced with rapidly increasing transaction volumes. As the role of customer-to-customer electronic commerce has become increasingly regarded as vital to the economy, much research has delved into developing intelligent agent systems to efficiently support customer-to-customer electronic commerce. Most of this research, however, has focused only on supporting simple negotiation for the price of common goods along the time span. To expand the negotiation object to the differentiated goods, the customer must be allowed to negotiate over multi-at-tributes of the product besides the price, including the attributes related to the transaction activity itself, such as delivery time and payment method. To satisfy this requirement, we propose an agent marketplace for differentiated goods where the agent of a customer can negotiate not only the price but also the various attributes of the product and the transaction in order to achieve a better utility level for both buyer and seller. The formal protocol and the architecture issues to support the proposed e-marketplace and agents are also addressed.

In order to carry out construction work, it is urgent to introduce a proper wage system so that the cost burden of projects that have been won due to bleeding competition among original government buildings based on low-priced bids can be transferred to subcontractors. Purpose: Construction with illegal multi-level industrial structure needs to improve the wage reduction environment leading to order (100%) → original contractor (80%) → subcontractor (65%) → load contractor (65%) and aims to ensure wages for end workers. Method: Investigate the current status of labor cost appropriate payment plan in the construction industry, and investigate the case of the appropriate wage system (P.W) in the United States. In addition, the effect and direction of the appropriate wage system are presented. Result: Individual minimum wage security was also mentioned in the Constitution, and many researchers suggested that only the introduction of an appropriate wage system could solve the problem of reducing worker labor and ensure quality and safety. Conclusion: The proper wage system in the construction industry will block illegal multi-level and illegal foreign work, improve the labor environment in the construction market, create an influx of young workers, and have a significant impact on the construction industry's competitive structure, safety, and quality.

For the past few years, unlike wireless widespread United States and Japan, expensive cost and platform of the mobile web carrier underground and self-centered made achievement of domestic mobile web market sluggish. Nowadays, more and more people pay attention to the mobile web service because of the increased quality of wireless internet, development of mobile device and variety of the flat-rate payment system. However, another big problem is that mobile web is too hard to use. Also, the poor content of mobile web service is an extremely serious problem. In this paper, we put forward a new method for easy to access mobile web service which is use WINC expansion numbers and users can use these numbers to shit their own website. Along with the benefits of purchase WINC number general users are able to make website and control their website at less time and energy.

As mobile communications service is growing every single year in Korea, it has pulled the interest of many researchers as wells as the executives. This research is aimed to find out factors of the mobile market that affect the utilization of mobile communication. We adopted a survey method with a pinpointed focus on how users' profile and individual experience relates with the utilization of mobile communication. For this objective, first, we primarily analyzed the mobile users' characteristics and service usage patterns. Then, we developed a conceptual model and hypotheses that are empirically examined using a covariance structure analysis, which will contribute to investigating critical success factors in mobile business. Some suggestions constitute the remaining part of this research. First, user characteristic is an important factor that affects the amount expended for mobile service. Second, user experience is another critical aspect that is highly linked with mobile payment. In alignment with our research, we propose user characteristics such as age and income, and user experience about mobile internet usage and mobile contents usage are of great significance in devising both near- and long-term mobile business strategy.

The objective of this study was to investigate the existence of starting point bias in the bidding game contingent valuation elicitation technique when determining willingness to pay (WTP) for improving the qualify of running water in Seoul and its vicinity. Of all existing contingent techniques, the bidding game most closely mimics the normal price taking behavior in local markets. Three different starting points (low, medium and high) were used to determine WTP and the existence of starting point bias in the meanwhile respectively. The respondents were randomly assigned to the three different starting point groups in order to ensure homogeneity, so that any variation seen in WTP could be attributed to the starting point effects. And a pretested interviewer-administered questionnaire used to elicit WTP. Non-parametric test and the logit model were used to analyze the data for evidence of starting point bias. In this instance, the high starting point group had a high WTP, and low starting point group had a low WTP. This means there exist starting point bias in estimating WTP by bidding game in this instance. This finding might signal that people may actually be making up their minds on the maximum amount they are willing to pay for running water service as a bidding iterating is going on and is influenced by the starting point used in the bidding game. The problem of slaking point bias can be avoided if the respondent is asked directly for the maximum WTP without payment cards or a bidding game. But such a question is perceived as being very difficult to answer and this leads to problems of non-response and being unrealistic.

Forests in the upstream contributed to improve the quality of water resources for the residents downstream. However, upon structural examination of how the Han River Watershed Management Fund was spent, it became apparent that the fund was not spent toward forest management in the upstream. An additional budget must be allocated if the Watershed Management Committee is to contribute to the management of the upstream forests with such awareness. Therefore, the aim of the study was to assess the willingness to pay and to calculate of budget for forest management in the upstream for water quality improvement. Three hundred surveys on watershed beneficiaries were conducted using biased sampling method. The result was analyzed with conditional logit model and mixed logit model. Forest management, a target variable, was found to have statistical significance. Based on this result, the size of the expected budget was estimated to be minimum 20,526 million won to maximum 20,928 million won.

Recently, many attempts have been made to reduce the time required for payment in various shopping environments. In addition, for the Fourth Industrial Revolution era, artificial intelligence is advancing, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices are becoming more compact and cheaper. So, by integrating these two technologies, access to building an unmanned environment to save people time has become easier. In this paper, we propose a smart shopping cart system based on low-cost IoT equipment and deep-learning object-detection technology. The proposed smart cart system consists of a camera for real-time product detection, an ultrasonic sensor that acts as a trigger, a weight sensor to determine whether a product is put into or taken out of the shopping cart, an application for smartphones that provides a user interface for a virtual shopping cart, and a deep learning server where learned product data are stored. Communication between each module is through Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol, a Hypertext Transmission Protocol network, a You Only Look Once darknet library, and an object detection system used by the server to recognize products. The user can check a list of items put into the smart cart via the smartphone app, and can automatically pay for them. The smart cart system proposed in this paper can be applied to unmanned stores with high cost-effectiveness.

사람은 누구나 잭이나 문서를 읽을 때 중요한 부분에 강조, 해설, 설명을 하기 위해서 표시를 하거나 글을 입력한다. 이와 같이 원본문서에 추가되는 부가 정보를 Annotation이라고 한다[6][7]. Annotation을 이용하면 차후에 원본문서를 재창조하거나 다른 사람이 원본문서를 참조할 경우 과중한 정보의 양을 극복할 수 있으므로[4], 원본문서의 이해도를 향상시킬 수 있다. 따라서, Annotation은 한번 사용하고 그치는 정보가 아닌 재사용할 수 있는 점보임을 의미한다[1,2,3]. 이러한 Annotation 기능을 웹 문서에 적용하게 되면 종이문서에서 얻을 수 있는 장점뿐만 아니라 웹 환경의 특징인 공유[5], 검색[4], 재편집 등의 기능이 가능하다. 이와 관련한 많은 연구가 진행중에 있다. 그러나, 기존의 Annotation 연구는 Anchor 입력된 다수의 Annotation이 무의미한 출력 순서로 제공되고 있으며, 또한 Anchor에 입력된 Annotation의 출력으로 인해 문서 구조가 변경되거나, 가려지는 등의 문제점으로 사용자들이 쉽게 사용 및 이해할 수 있는 Annotation 출력 인터페이스에 대한 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 Anchor에 입력된 다수의 Annotation들 간의 의미적 순서를 부여하여 보다 적절한 Annotation에 대한 우선 접근이 가능하도록 계층적인 Annotation 우선처리 기법을 제안하고, Annotation 출력으로 인한 문서 변경 문제를 해결하기 위한 유동적인 Annotation 표현 기법을 제안한다. 또한 Annotation이 문서에 부가된 부가정보의 역할을 뿐만 아니라, 다양한 활용이 가능하도록 XML 표준에 기반한 저장 구조를 지원하며, 원본문서와 분리하여 저장한다.속도를 개선시켰고, 국소적인 변형이 있는 패턴과 특징의 수가 다른 패턴의 경우에도 좋은 인식률을 얻었다.r interferon alfa concentrated solution can be established according to the monograph of EP suggesting the revision of Minimum requirements for biological productss of e-procurement, e-placement, e-payment are also investigated.. monocytogenes, E. coli 및 S. enteritidis에 대한 키토산의 최소저해농도는 각각 0.1461 mg/mL, 0.2419 mg/mL, 0.0980 mg/mL 및 0.0490 mg/mL로 측정되었다. 또한 2%(v/v) 초산 자체의 최소저해농도를 측정한 결과, B. cereus, L. mosocytogenes, E. eoli에 대해서는 control과 비교시 유의적인 항균효과는 나타나지 않았다. 반면에 S. enteritidis의 경우는 배양시간 4시간까지는 항균활성을 나타내었지만, 8시간 이후부터는 S. enteritidis의 성장이 control 보다 높아져 배양시간 20시간에서는 control 보다 약 2배 이상 균주의 성장을 촉진시켰다.차에 따른 개별화 학습을 가능하게 할 뿐만 아니라 능동적인 참여를 유도하여 학습효율을 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.향은 패션마케팅의 정의와 적용범위를 축소시킬 수 있는 위험을 내재한 것으로 보여진다. 그런가 하면, 많이 다루어진 주제라 할지라도 개념이나 용어가 통일되지 않고 사용되며 검증되어 통용되는 측정도구의 부재로 인하여 연구결과의 축적이 미비한 상태이다. 따라서, 이에 대한 재고와 새로운 방향
