The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of customer perceptions of control within the dining experience on customer satisfaction. Customer perceptions of the resulting pace of the service encounter negatively impacted their satisfaction ratings during the stages of ordering, production, and payment in a restaurant. The moderating influence of perceived service pace satisfaction during service stages in a restaurant on the relationship between perceived service pace and customer satisfaction was also examined. Perceived service pace satisfaction was examined using expectancy disconfirmation theory. The effect of perceived pace on customer satisfaction was moderated by perceived service pace satisfaction during the production stage with a greater tolerance to a faster pace during the ordering stage. The management needs to consider the negative effect of service encounter pace on customer satisfaction. Perceived service pace satisfaction during the service stages in a restaurant should also be factored into strategy development for duration control.

In service robots, a number of human movements are analyzed using a variety of sensors. Vibration signals from walking movements of a human provide useful information about the distance and the movement direction of the human. In this paper, we measure the intensity of vibrations and detect both human walking pace and direction. In our experiments, vibration signals detected by microphone sensors provide good estimation of the distance and direction of a human movement. This can be applied to HRI (Human-Robot Interaction) technology.

This study was conducted to analyze the lap time of the K-1 1000m final race of men's general division and to develop strategies to adjust the pace for the intervals to improve the performance. We measured the lap time of the final race of the 99 th National Sports Festival by 250m intervals and compared them with the data of the World Championship finals held in 2018. The final average record of domestic top-ranked players was 248.651 seconds, and the top international's 210.826 seconds. There was a time gap of 38 seconds in the record. In lap-time, it was 8, 11, 6, and 13 seconds behind every 250m. World Championship players used the Fast-Maintain-Maintain-Spurt strategy while domestic players used the pacing strategy of Fast-Slow-Fast-Slow. In order to improve the performance of domestic players, it is necessary to adjust overall pace control strategies to maintain the pace after the quick start and to spurt at the last lap.

PURPOSE: This review sought to confirm the correlation between dual-task gait and cognitive function in cognitively impaired and healthy older adults. METHOD: We used four databases (DBs), Pubmed, Cochrane library, Kmbase, and Koreamed. Searches were carried out according to the PICOS method, P (participants) were the elderly (above 65 years) with cognitive decline, I (intervention) was walking with dual tasks, C (control group) comprised the elderly without cognitive decline, O (outcome) was the correlation between gait and cognitive function and S (study) was the cross-sectional study. For the methodological quality assessment of each study, we used the Quality Assessment Tool for Observation Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies provided by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). RESULTS: A total of 10 articles were included in this systematic review. For the components of gait, we used pace, rhythm, and variability and we observed that mild cognitive impairment mostly causes low gait performance while performing dual tasks. Among the 10 articles, 9 articles studied pace, of which 7 showed significant results. However, 2 were not significant. Also, 1 article that studied rhythm and 3 articles that studied variability showed significant results. The methodological quality of the 10 studies was fair. CONCLUSION: Gait pace was found to have a high correlation between memory, which is a cognitive ability, and overall cognitive function. It was observed that older adults with mild cognitive impairment have reduced gait pace in single-task walking, and further decrease in dual-task gait pace shows the correlation between memory and gait pace during walking.

An accurate tip position control of a single-link flexible manipulator subjected to torque disturbance is achieved by utilizing so called sliding mode controller with disturbance estimation (SMCDE). After formulating the governing equation of motion in the state 1pace representation, a stable sliding surface is designed via the LQR method. The SMCDE is then synthesized by integrating equivalent sliding mode controller with the disturbance estimator which is featured by an integrated average value of the imposed disturbance over a certain sampling period. The regulating tip motion of the flexible manipulator is evaluated by employing the proposed SMCDE.

This study was conducted to find condition of improving the quality of peach by using surfacing washing system. The rate of weight loss of A,B groups were showed slower decreasing trend than CT group and the value of soluble solid degree was not different significantly among all groups from the results of stored peach treat with surface washing system of peach in the first experiment. The colory value of surface were increased with increasing storage period in all treatments. Browning pace of A,B groups were slower than control. Emission of carbon dioxide was increased from the results of respiration rate, 6-10 mL/kg/hr $(10^{\circ}C)$ and 32-41 mL/kg/hr $(25^{\circ}C)$. In second experiment with surface washing system of peach, the value of soluble solid was showed with similar value from 10 $Brix^{\circ}$ to 13 $Brix^{\circ}$. The pace of soft rot of EW groups were lower than CT groups from the results of hardness during storage period. The results of colory value was not showed with significant difference in $15^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ storage temperature but changed to browning in EW groups. The moisture contents was from 85% to 90% in all groups. And the count of total microorganism of EW groups were lower than control. Also total coliform of EW groups were negative. In sensory evaluation, washing peach was showed higher value with significant difference in all acceptability.

In order to provide a safe free-weight-training environment to people without workout trainers, we suggest a smart bench press machine with an automatic weight control system sensitive to user tiredness. Physical weight plates on the machine are replaced with a hydraulic cylinder as a press load and the cylinder knob is coupled with a step motor to change its tensile force automatically in-between lifting exercises. Three subjects participated to verify the usability of the smart bench press machine. They were asked to lift a 6-RM press load 10 times with 3 different lifting conditions: 1) no assistance, 2) a human assistance, and 3) the automatic weight control. All subjects were not able to complete the 10 sets without assistance due to tiredness, but they finished the full sets under the two assistive conditions. Average lifting speeds under the automatic weight control condition showed the most consistent level. Normalized quasi-tension data based on surface electromyogram signals of both Pectoralis Majors revealed that the subjects maintained the target muscle activation level above 50% but not more than 80% throughout the 10 sets. Therefore, the smart bench press machine is expected to both keep pace with the lifting exercise and reduce risk of injuries due to excessive muscle tensions.

New information technologies make it easy to access and acquire information in various ways. However, It also enable powerful and various threat to system security. The prominent database technology challenging these threats is access control. Currently, to keep pace with the new paradigms, new extended access control methods are challenged. We study access control with uncertain context. With respect to access control, it is possible that there is a discrepancy between the syntactic phrase in security policies and that in queries, called semantic gap problem. In our semantic access control, we extract semantic implications from context tree and introduce the measure factor to calculate the degree of the discrepancy, which is used to control the exceed privileges.
