Patterns and regional distribution of disaster-related place names have been analyzed to confirm the recognition and probability of disaster and to explore the possibility of disaster prevention measures. 106 terms and 37,901 place names related to disaster and prevention measures have been collected from the Korean gazetteers "Hanguk Jimyeong Chongnam". Based on this, some conclusions have been drawn: firstly, place names related to the geomorphic processes and prevention measures are more common than any other disasters; secondly, place names related to heavy rain, flooding and drowning are most common. Analysis of the regional distribution pattern shows that disaster-related place names are most common in Jeolla and Gyeongsang Provinces and general place names reflecting environmental concern such as water, sand, plain, rain and dam are distributed evenly throughout the whole country; howe, r, place names such as dumbeong, gureong, yeoul, tan(灘), bangjuk, je(堤), and ji(池) are restricted to the specific region, which shows that place names reflects the locational and toprn sucic ainuations. Case st, anindicates that prevention measures should be focused on tributaries and srill villeys conaid ring that disasters originated from the combination of weather and landform conditions are most common throughout the whole country.

The establishment of differentiated place image is becoming more important as a cultural tourism development policy in order to secure regional identity and boost regional economy. Place marketing strategies using culturally and historically differentiated regional places is very valuable as part of a regional development strategy to strengthen regional competitiveness. To construct place image as a differentiated brand, place image positioning suitable for a specific place and region needs to be established and comprehensive marketing strategies are required to generate various synergy effects. Based on existing theories and discussions regarding place and place marketing, this study is aimed at seeking for possibility as a cultural activity space and its more efficient use plans by selecting a region which has historical and cultural backgrounds and assets about Hamel's drift and stay. For these purposes, this study investigated historical and cultural backgrounds through a case study and made suggestions about brand making and place image promotion. In addition, this study aimed to examine efficient plans and utilization possibility for comprehensive image construction.

In this paper, the approach to 'Place' and 'Experience' typically adopted by anthropogeographers will be reconsidered in light of the Taoist perspective to these phenomena. In order to develop the discussion more specifically, this exploration will be based on Jeff Malpas's philosophical theories rather than geography, and the Lao-Zhuang (Laozi and Zhuangzi) perspective will also come into pace as place and experience are examined. In this paper, I have divided place and space on the basis of their dictionary meanings and have reconsidered each via Malpas and Lao-Zhuang views. I then discuss place in terms of 'Place' and 'Place experience.' Experience is what Malpas emphasizes as having Place in regards to place. Through this, I check the placing of place and examined the characteristics of place, while comparing the views mentioned in Lao-Zhuang with those of Malpas and considered their meanings. In this study, I look at why a place should be a place, what experience in a place means, and what view and position Lao-Zhuang Thought has on this matters. Place is a meaningful subject for both the East and the West. Based on this work, I hope that Asian place theory can emerge anew.

CISG provides the place of payment at the Article 57 which if the buyer is not bound to pay the price at any other particular place, he must pay it to the seller (a) at the seller's p lace of business or (b) if the payment is to be made against the handing over of the goods or of documents, at the place where the handing over takes place. When the parties have agreed that payment is to be made against the handing over of the goods or of documents, the place where this is to happen according to the contract or CISG is the place of payment. When the parties have not agreed to this, the place of payment is the seller's place of payment. The buyer does not send the money to seller's office, but pays it to the seller's bank account. Where payment is effected by a L/C, such operations shall be governed by UCP and collection of money governed by URC. The payment at the seller's place of payment affects the rate of interest, currency of money and jurisdiction which is interpreted by Brussel convention and Lugano convention. The principle on which the CISG is based, characterizes the obligation of payment as an obligation to be performed at the creditor's place of business. This principle affects the place of damage claims payable to be at the creditor's that place. Payment at the place of business is required, but not inside the place itself.

The purpose of this study is to figure out the differences in children's 'sense of place' followed by their development stages and to suggest a positive space design of school suited by their development. Haeng-Hyeon Elementary school was selected as the target area. The research methods of this study were based on drawing the cognitive map and a questionnaire survey. Through the cognitive map, children's development stages were determined. Also, through an awareness assessment, the places where the children had deep recognition were extracted. The questionnaires were based on knowing the places where children create their 'sense of place' and its reasons. The sense of place development factors are comprehended as physical factor, behavioral factor and psychological factor based on Relph(1976). The results were organized into a guide which has to be considered when designing an elementary school, sorted by adequate space responding to children's development stages.

PURPOSES: This study is to investigate the Hot In-Place recycling asphalt mixture in Korea using field produced materials. METHODS: Hot In-Place reclaimed asphalt mixture was investigated to evaluate the mixture properties based on various test results such as Marshall Test, Indirect Tensile Test, TSR, and Wheel Tracking Test. These test values were compared with domestic standard specification. RESULTS: The result of the laboratory experiment indicates that the Hot In-Place Reclaimed(HIR) asphalt mixture produced at the field constrution site was satisfied all of the test criteria such as Indirect tensile test, Marshall and TSR test, and wheel tracking test. During the test, the research team found that current HIR system is required an extention of mixing time to improve quality and to reduce variation of sample to sample. Although the current HIR mixture was passed the test criteria, there is a potential capability to enhance the mixture properties as extend mixting time. CONCLUSIONS: Based on these laboratory test results, It would be concluded that domestic HIR mixture's properties were satisfied all standard specification related with evaluation of recycling asphalt mixtures. Based on this case study result, there is a chance to save construction cost and increase the usage of reclaimed asphalt concrete in the future.

This study is an architectural design thesis aimed at designing a building at the River Thames in London, which could float along the river and be anchored in the river, in terms of the concept of the sense of place. The process of the study was as follows. First, theoretical backgrounds of the concepts of sense of place, placelessness, and non-place were examined and the sense of place of River Thames was analyzed. Second, the architectural planning elements could be applied to architectural design in terms of the relationship between the place and architecture, form of architecture, and behaviors of peoples. Third, the architectural design concepts and programs were specified based on the planning elements and a cultural complex that floats on the River Thames in London, England was proposed. The focus of this study was the process of formation of a sense of place by the cognition of architecture and people's activity, and this study claimed that the sense of place could be materialized by the metaphorically inherent property of the architecture.

Place recognition is necessary for a mobile user to be provided with place-dependent information. This paper proposes real-time video based place recognition system that identifies users' current place while moving in the building. As for the feature extraction of a scene, there have been existing methods based on global feature analysis that has drawback of sensitive-ness for the case of partial occlusion and noises. There have also been local feature based methods that usually attempted object recognition which seemed hard to be applied in real-time system because of high computational cost. On the other hand, researches using statistical methods such as HMM(hidden Markov models) or bayesian networks have been used to derive place recognition result from the feature data. The former is, however, not practical because it requires huge amounts of efforts to gather the training data while the latter usually depends on object recognition only. This paper proposes a combined approach of global and local feature analysis for feature extraction to complement both approaches' drawbacks. The proposed method is applied to a mobile information system and shows real-time performance with competitive recognition result.

This paper aims to critically discuss the place-marketing strategy that has been widely seen as an alternative way of regional development for the last decade in South Korea. In particular, it argues that the place-marketing strategy is highly likely to intensify the inter-local or inter-urban completion and to result in the territorialization of places because it is based on the essentialist notion of place that has been suggested by the humanistic geographers. In order to logically support my argument, I will critically review the essentialist notion of place, and introduce an alternative notion of place, in which the place is seen as socially constructed through complicated power relations and social, political and cultural processes. Also, I will logically demonstrate that the place-marketing can be seen as a strategy for territorializing places by discussing how territory is socially and politically constructed as a particular form of place.
