In this paper, effect of interpenetrating polymer network(IPN) introduction on the dielectric properties, heat proof properties, internal structure and defects of the Epoxy/SiO$_2$composite materials, were investigated. we reported a relation between network structures and electrical properties, especially dielectric characteristics with variation of network structures for epoxy composite materials. According to experimental results, the specimens which have single network structures have lower dielectric constant than interpenetrating polymer network(IPN) specimens, but have relatively larger dependency to variation of temperature and frequency. It was confirmed that change of structures is attained by introducing of IPN to insulating materials. Therefore it is counted that introduction of multiple structure including IPN is necessary to improve heat proof and electrical properties.

Traffic analysis during past years used the Poisson distribution or Markov model, assuming an exponential distribution of packet queue arrival. Recent studies, however, have shown aperiodic and burst characteristics of network traffics. Such characteristics of data traffic enable the scalability of network, QoS, optimized design, when we analyze new traffic model having a self-similar characteristic. This paper analyzes the self-similar characteristics of a small-scale mixed traffic in a network simulation, the real network Traffic.

This study examined the cause-and-effect relationships among developmental network characteristics, developmental functions, and career identity. The study analyzed the data of employees with more than two years of experience and a college degree or over qualifications, from domestic companies. For analysis, the structural equation model was applied. Most of all, it was substantiated that the structural relationships among the developmental network characteristics, developmental functions, and career identity. The specific results were as follows. First, tie strength had a positive effect on all of developmental functions but psychosocial support mediated the relationship between the tie strength and career identity. Second, an indirect relationship between indicators of network diversity and identity was not found or the indirect relationship was very weak.

The effective management of knowledge has become one of the critical success factors in current organizations. In spite of the extensive use of Knowledge Management System (KMS), useful information and knowledge resources are still transmitted through personal networks among people in organizations. Thus, social network theory which focuses on social relationships in organization can be a fruitful theoretical resource for enhancing Knowledge Management (KM) performances. In this study, we investigate the effects of intra-team network characteristics (i.e., group density and degree of centralization) and external boundary spanning activities on knowledge management performances of a team. We also acknowledge that all group members do not necessarily agree on the team goal and actively disseminate useful information and knowledge. Drawing on the political perspective on KM which emphasizes the role of trust among group members, we examine the mediating effects of team trust between internal/external network characteristics and KM performances. From the data of 220 teams in financial companies in Korea, we found that: (1) group density had positive effects on KM performances (i.e., knowledge creation, sharing, and use). (2) However, centralization was not significantly associated with KM performances. (3) Team trust was found to be an important factor mediating the relationship between intra-team network characteristics, boundary spanning activities, and KM performances. Based on these results, we discuss and suggest possible implications of the findings when designing and implementing KM practices.

Many studies have been carried out to investigate the important factors in calculating the realistic entropy amount of water distribution networks, but none of them have considered both mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of the networks. Also, the entropy difference in various networks has not been calculated exactly. Therefore, this study suggested a modified entropy function to calculate the informational entropy of water distribution networks so that the order of demand nodes and entropy difference among various networks could be calculated by taking into account both mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of the network. This modification was performed through defining a coefficient in the entropy function as the amount of outflow at each node to all dissipated power in the network. Hence, a more realistic method for calculating entropy was presented by considering both mechanical and hydraulic characteristics of network while keeping simplicity. The efficiency of the suggested method was evaluated by calculating the entropy of some sample water networks using the modified function.

Throughput response characteristics depending on the network bandwidth allocation need to be modeled to devise adaptive control mechanism to support QoS of the network. Thus, two models are proposed in this study. The first one is a dynamic system model and the other one is a stochastic model. The dynamic system model is developed to represent dynamic characteristics of the network and the stochastic model is developed to represent distribution of measured throughput data. An optimization technique is used for decision of proposed model's factor. The result confirms that the characteristics of proposed models are similar with actual network's characteristics.

The goal of this study is to examine the characteristics of Chinese visitors visiting Thailand, determine the rules, and give a reference for Thai tourism authorities and businesses when developing marketing strategies for the Chinese market. This paper constructs the tourism flow network and takes Bangkok as the major research target. The statistical characteristics of the network are studied using the SNA method, based on the trip notes of Thailand on www.mafengwo.cn, a prominent travel website in China as the data source. The results show that: Shanghai, Beijing, and Tianjin occupy important positions in the network; The flow direction of Chinese tourists to Thailand mainly tends to Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Pattaya, and Phuket Island; Grand Palace have strong tourism flow aggregation, diffusion, and control over other nodes in the whole network structure; Tom Yu Kuang has the greatest degree centrality in all Thai cuisine. The findings of the study can help relevant management departments create tourist policies and modify market strategies by developing the regular characteristics of China's tourism flow to Thailand in the theoretical field.

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the network characteristics of ports and their performance that is represented by port competitiveness for the port operators. The study employs Social Network Analysis (SNA) to evaluate network characteristics comprising four centrality indices. For this research, data from Containerization International Yearbooks for 2006-2011 is used to analyze the service networks of 20 major liner shipping companies. In SNA, nodes (vertices) in the network are the ports and links (edges) in the network are connections realized by vessel movements, such that the liner shipping network determines the port network. In addition, panel regression analysis has been employed to investigate the relationship between port network characteristics and their performance. The results suggest that the four centrality indices identify the roles of the world's major ports from 2006 to 2011 and that port performance is determined not only by macroeconomic variables and service capabilities but also by the eigenvector centrality of ports in networks.
