With the globalization trend in S&T activities, Korean research organizations have begun to utilize foreign researchers. The performance of foreign researchers is generally regarded satisfactory, but there are many problems too. Moreover, there has not been any research carried out even though there is a growing need for the management of foreign researchers. This paper identified the performance / motivation factors of foreign researchers in Korean research organizations. The statistical results show that the efforts and research capabilities are the most important variables for performance of foreign researchers in Korean research organization. In addition, it is found out that university shows higher performance than government research institute and corporate research organization while it pays the least to the foreign researchers. It is interesting to see that the level of monetary payment is not strongly related with the performance of foreign researchers. In order to utilize the full potential of foreign researchers, it is necessary to enhance the living infrastructure. In addition, due attention should be given to the managerial capabilities of R&D administrators and evaluation/incentive systems of foreign researchers in Korean research organizations.

The automation of agricultural machines is an irreversible trend considering the demand for improved productivity and lack of labor in handling agricultural tasks. Unstructured working environments and weather often inhibit a seemingly simple task from being fully autonomously performed. In this context, we propose a remote driving system (RDS) to aid agricultural machines designed to operate autonomously. Particularly, we modify a commercial speed sprayer for orchard environments into a robotic speed sprayer to evaluate the proposed RDS's usability and test three sensor configurations in terms of human performance. Furthermore, we propose a confidence error ellipsebased task performance measure to evaluate human performance. In addition, we present field experimental results describing how the sensor configurations affect human performance. We find that a combination of a semiautonomous line tracking device and a wide-angle camera is the most effective for spraying. Finally, we discuss how to improve the proposed RDS in terms of usability and obtain a more accurate measure of human performance.

Purposes: This study explored the difference analysis of financial performance and technological innovation according to the ESG management activities of healthcare companies based on the time before and after the mandatory ESG management reporting of listed Chinese healthcare companies in China. Methodology: This study collected ESG management activities, corporate financial performance, and technological innovation data of Chinese listed healthcare companies by using Bloomberg Database and China-listed company reports to collect data for analyzing differences between groups through T-test. Findings: ESG activities in the healthcare industry have a certain impact on corporate financial performance, but have no impact on corporate technological innovation. Like the world trend, the ESG activities and financial results of China's healthcare industry have shown a positive development direction in recent years, and ESG scores are rising. Practical Implication: Since 2018, ESG activities in China's healthcare industry have flourished, and ESG activities and financial performance have developed in a positive direction.

Four design codes/regulations for steel structures in Japan are briefly reviewed. Some of them employ the limit state design concept while the others are still based on the allowable stress design concept. The process for revision is now in action. The directions in the development of structural design codes are also reported herein. It is noted that a current trend in this development is to employ the performance-based design concept that has been successfully implemented in some seismic design codes.

This manuscript introduces the Capacity Design Methodology in the Building Standard Law of Japan revised at 2000, June. The Building Standard Law of Japan was revised into the performance-based design format following the trend of international. The structural performance was evaluated for two limiting states; soundness limit state and safety limit state. The design seismic forces were determined on taking into consideration (a)the properties of the planned building, (b)amplification by local surfaces geology, and (c)soil-structure interaction.

The research and development history of the gas turbine combustor in Korea is introduced briefly. It is very important to understand the fuel spray, mixing phenomena in achieving combustion performance. In this paper, two kinds of fuel injection system such as duplex fuel injector and rotary spray system are introduced in developing gas turbine combustor in Korea. The extensive experimental research of fuel spray, ignition, performance and endurance rig test makes gas turbine combustor successfully in Korea.

A fundamental trend of processor architecture evolving towards exaflops is fast increasing floating point performance (so-called "free" flops) accompanied by much slowly increasing memory and network bandwidth. In order to fully enjoy the "free" flops, a numerical algorithm of PDEs should request more flops per byte or increase arithmetic intensity. A meshfree/GFEM approximation can be the class of the algorithm. It is shown in a GFEM without extra dof that the kind of approximation takes advantages of the high performance of manycore GPUs by a high accuracy of approximation; the "expensive" method is found to be reversely hardware-efficient on the emerging architecture of manycore.

The trend towards employee involvement (EI) has redefined the employer-employee relationship and, for many organizations, has brought about a fundamental change in organizational performance. This paper begins with a review of EI concepts and typologies. It goes on to elaborate need for the adoption of EI practices and discuss the factors affecting the adoption. The main theme of the quality management (QM) literature will then be presented addressing its concepts, principles and elements. Drawing on the theoretical and practitioners' perspectives, the paper also discusses the significance of integrating EI/QM practices to sustain organizational performance improvement.

Gaussian process regression (GPR) is proposed as a tool of long-term groundwater quality predictions. The major advantage of GPR is that both prediction and the prediction related uncertainty are provided simultaneously. To demonstrate the applicability of the proposed tool, GPR and a conventional non-parametric trend analysis tool are comparatively applied to synthetic examples. From the application, it has been found that GPR shows better performance compared to the conventional method, especially when the groundwater quality data shows typical non-linear trend. The GPR model is further employed to the long-term groundwater quality predictions based on the data from two domestically operated groundwater monitoring stations. From the applications, it has been shown that the model can make reasonable predictions for the majority of the linear trend cases with a few exceptions of severely non-Gaussian data. Furthermore, for the data shows non-linear trend, GPR with mean of second order equation is successfully applied.

본 연구에서는 시계열 예측을 위해 선형 모형과 비선형 모형의 하이브리드 모형 및 순수 모형의 성과를 비교 평가하였다. 이를 위해 5가지 서로 다른 패턴을 가지는 데이터를 생성하여 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 본 연구에서 고려한 선형 모형은 AR(autoregressive model)과 SARIMA(seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average model)이고 비선형 모형은 인공신경망(artificial neural networks model)과 GAM(generalized additive model)이다. 특히, GAM은 여러 장점에도 불구하고 시계열 예측을 위한 비선형 모형으로 기존 연구들에서는 거의 쓰이지 않았던 모형이다. 시뮬레이션 결과, seasonality를 가지는 시계열에 대해서는 AR 및 AR-AR 모형이, trend를 가지는 시계열에 대해서는 SARIMA 및 SARIMA와 다른 모형의 하이브리드 모형이 다른 모형에 비해 높은 성과를 보였다. 한편, 인공신경망과 GAM을 비교하면, 트렌드와 계절성이 더해진 시계열에 대해 SARIMA와 GAM의 하이브리드 모형이 거의 모든 노이즈(noise) 수준에 대해 높은 성과를 보인 반면, 노이즈 수준이 미미한 경우에 한해 SARIMA와 인공신경망의 하이브리드 모형이 높은 성과를 보였다.
