  • The research on computer graphics(CG) has been actively studied and developed. Namely, many surface/solid models have been proposed in the field of computer aided geometric design as well as the one of CG. Since it is difficult to visualize the complex shape exactly, an approximation by generating a set of meshes is usually used. Therefore it is important to guarantee the quality of the approximation in consideration of the computational cost. In this paper, a mesh generation algorithm will be proposed for a surface defined by Lie algebra. The proposed algorithm considers the quality in the meaning of validation of invariants obtained by the mesh, using automatic differentiation.

  • This study aims at providing restaurant marketers and decision-makers both the brand differentiation information and the useful clues to achieve the high market share through the various brand differentiation opportunities in multi-chain family restaurants. Sample surveys were conducted to 245 persons who had frequent using multi-chain family restaurants in Seoul. Method of survey used are telephone interviewing. The result of analysis was shown the marketer's performances on differentiation marketing, but that there were a lot of opportunities of differentiating the brand from others. Therefore, restaurant marketers and decision-makers should try to differentiate their brand along the lines of physical attributes, service, food quality, personnel, location, or image, in order to win the guest and then get the succession of their business.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide academic and practical implications based on the analysis results of similarities and differentiation of Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award (MBNQA) in healthcare institutes from 2007 to 2016. Methods: This study examined the characteristics and similarities, the changes made for the most importantly considered, a degree of improvement of patient satisfaction, and employee retention rate of the MBNQA awarded 8 healthcare institutes announced by NIST during the period of 2007-2016. Results: First, the MBNQA awarded 8 healthcare institutes that maintained and implemented effective plans for a long period of time to improve the quality of care services. Second, these organizations were selected among the top 10% of the institutional evaluations in the medical field in the United States. Third, they have tried to continuously improve patient and potential customer and employee satisfaction. Fourth, it is shown that the quality improvement efforts have made long-term and continuous improvement efforts on average 4-5 years. Lastly, the increased number of patients and the improved organizational performance are twice higher than those of other healthcare institutions. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that common and differentiation strategies of healthcare institutions should be a good benchmarking model for other competitive healthcare institutions.

  • The paper demonstrates that versioning of digital products occurs more frequently than that of physical products because of low marginal cost. The versioning occurs no matter what a customer knows his/her reservation price. Low-quality version will not be produced when the difference between reservation prices is very large. The paper also shows that a firm tries to lower the quality of low-quality product to prevent customers with high reservation prices from purchasing low-quality product.

  • Currently, the IETF group is working on service differentiation in the Internet. However, in wireless environments such as Ad-hoc networks, where channel conditions are variable and bandwidth is scarce, the Internet differentiated services are suboptimal without lower layers' support. The IEEE 802.11 standard for Wireless LANs is the most widely used WLAN standard today. 1t has a mode of operation that can be used to provide service differentiation, but it has been shown to perform badly. In this paper, we present a new service differentiation scheme for support QoS in the wireless IEEE 802.11, which is based on a multiple queuing system to provide priority of user's flow. We simulate and analyze the performance of our algorithm and compare its performance with the original IEEE 802.11b protocol. Simulation results show that our approach increases overall throughput in the MAC layer.

  • The objective of this study is examining regional differentiation of private brand customer. Factors found to influence private brand purchase intention included familiarity with private brand, perceived value, store loyalty, perceived risk, perceived quality variation between national and private brand products. For testing the research model, data were collected in Seoul and Busan. The hypothetical paths included in model are supported. There are regional differentiations in 1) negative relation of perceived quality variation and perceived value, 2) positive relation of familiarity and purchase intention, and 3) positive relation of store royalty and purchase intention.

  • Purpose: This study provide the matching mechanism between startup and business incubator to enhance managerial performance of business incubator. In addition, we propose the differentiation strategy for business incubator based on the needs of startups. Methods: In order to carry out the research, we surveyed 216 startups who already have invested in venture capitals and angel investors and currently residing in business incubator and 30 venture capitals and angel investors. Based on survey results, we develop a business incubator capability table matching startup with business incubator. Results: Satisfaction and importance of the supporting programs varied depending on the startup experience and startup lifecycle. As a result, we recommended a R&D center for machinery/material, bio/medical and electric/electronics startups and individual office for ICT and knowledge service startups. In addition, we suggested a differentiation strategy to BI in university specialized for machinery/material, privately operated BI for electric/electronic, (local)government, R&D center and individual office for knowledge service respectively. Conclusion: In this study, business incubator capability table is applied to match startup with business incubator and it could be applied to evaluate the current status of business incubator. Furthermore, it will help to establish a future strategic direction for business incubator.

  • Objective: The Jeju native pig (JNP) found on the Jeju Island of Korea is a unique black pig known for high-quality meat. To investigate the genetic uniqueness of JNP, we analyzed the selection signature of the JNP in comparison to commercial pigs such as Berkshire and Yorkshire pigs. Methods: We surveyed the genetic diversity to identify the genetic stability of the JNP, using the linkage disequilibrium method. A selective sweep of the JNP was performed to identify the selection signatures. To do so, the population differentiation measure, Weir-Cockerham's Fst was utilized. This statistic directly measures the population differentiation at the variant level. Additionally, we investigated the gene ontologies (GOs) and genetic features. Results: Compared to the Berkshire and Yorkshire pigs, the JNP had lower genetic diversity in terms of linkage disequilibrium decays. We summarized the selection signatures of the JNP as GO. In the JNP and Berkshire pigs, the most enriched GO terms were epithelium development and neuron-related. Considering the JNP and Yorkshire pigs, cellular response to oxygen-containing compound and generation of neurons were the most enriched GO. Conclusion: The selection signatures of the JNP were identified through the population differentiation statistic. The genes with possible selection signatures are expected to play a role in JNP's unique pork quality.
