Since imposing Performance Requirements (PRs) on investors have been conducted as a means to protect a host state's domestic industry in the short run, with its effect on improving the international balance of payments, it has been implemented mostly in developing countries. From the viewpoint of investors, however, PRs hinder free competition and investment activities and have the effect of distorting international trade activities; therefore, they are expected to bring detrimental effects on the host state's economic development in the long run. PRs provided by International Investment Agreements (IIAs) and WTO-TRIMs, too, included many abstract regulations which are grounded on the host state's economic efficiency in the past; however, those PRs are gradually being more concretely specified, shifting to a form of prohibition with the goals of increasing the protection on investors and realizing investment liberalization. Accordingly, when Korea freshly concludes IIAs or revises them afterwards, one should focus more on following the points regarding PRs. First, to protect Korean companies' investment activities, it is advantageous to list the contents of prohibited PRs extensively and concretely and create a stipulation. Second, it is necessary to list the contents of the PRs prohibited and add the phrases for prohibiting "any other similar requirements" explicitly, as well so as to cover the PRs that can appear newly. Third, as in the cases associated with PRs, issuable matters are mostly either the range of applying PRs or the conditions of applying them (relevance or detrimental effects); therefore, it is necessary to classify the cases accumulated by issues and analyze them thoroughly. In conclusion, as this study has analyzed the theoretical characteristics of PRs provided in IIAs and related cases and suggests exquisite theory regarding PRs, it not only lays fundamental grounds for follow-up research but also gives useful and practical guidelines for the parties concerned and the arbitrators according to the ISDS procedure.

패킷 CDMA망에서 음성과 데이터를 통합 서비스하기 위해서는 각 서비스가 요구하는 QoS를 만족시키면서 채널을 효율적으로 사용할 수 있는 MAC 프로토콜이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 마이크로셀룰러 환경의 패킷 CDMA망에서 음성과 데이터 서비스를 통합하기 위한 RRS$^2$-CDMA (Packet Reservation and Status Sensing in CDMA network) MAC 프로토콜을 제안하고, 이에 대한 성능을 분석하였다. 음성 트래픽인 경우에는 매 발음 구간 동안 채널 예약 방식으로 서비스되고, 데이터 트래픽인 경우에는 매 패킷이 발생할 때마다 기지국으로부터 수신한 채널의 상태 정보를 이용하여 음성 단말기가 사용하지 않는 임의의 채널을 선택하여 서비스된다. 성능 분석을 통하여, 본 논문에서 제안한 기법은 음성과 데이터 트래픽이 요구하는 서비스 품질을 만족하면서 시스템 용량을 향상시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
