This paper on an experiment, using System Dynamics, on the affect of increase in number of beds and medical instruments used for the care of premature infants, which constitute the physical requirements in quality of medical services, on changes in the survival rate of premature in ants that leads to demographic changes of Newborn infants. The model has four sectors: take-in capacity, survival rate of premature infants, demographics without newborn infants and demographics with newborn infants. The model simulates the changes in demographics of the newborn infants from 2002 to 2022. The study results show that the survival rate of premature infants can be increased by improving the physical aspects in the quality of medical services. An average of 1,900 premature infants can survive as a result of the physical quality improvements in medical services, adding up to an increase of 37,300 newborn infants by the year 2022.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the work environment and job satisfaction of hospital workers and to assess their effects on quality of services under the national long-term care hospital evaluation (hereafter, national evaluation), which has implemented since 2008. Methods: A self-administered survey was conducted on 178 hospital workers' at 18 hospitals in Chungcheong province, Korea. Survey questionnaires include questions about respondent' awareness of the national evaluation and any change in work environment and job satisfaction under the national evaluation. We used a path analysis to assess the effects of work environment and job satisfaction on quality of services. Results: Results showed that the effects of the national evaluation on work environment and job satisfaction were positive, which, in turn, leads to better quality of services. Improvements in the work environment under the national evaluation have resulted in increased job satisfaction. High scores for job satisfaction showed a significant association with the quality of services provided in long-term care hospitals. In addition, the national evaluation itself had a positive effect on improving quality of services. Conclusions: In order to facilitate quality improvement activities under the national evaluation, it is suggested that workers be provided with education and training. Continuous efforts to improve work environment and to enhance job satisfaction would lead to provision of better quality of services in long-term care hospitals.

Quality services such as the integrated service and the differentiated service have been expected to be supported by public Internet as multimedia applications proliferate. Despite a lot of techniques for quality services have been devised, the prospect for the deployment of these techniques is not clear yet. In this research feasibility of real world quality service is investigated based on former experiments and recent trends in Internet applications. User network-based quality services are considered as the most feasible and economic short-term solution, which are also flexible in nature. Milestones and key technologies for some specific public network-based quality services are also described.

Service quality is still a new concept to those who works in shipping lines services since it has not been identified as a mandatory factor to increase competitiveness. Most carriers are currently offering services at the same level of price, transit time, equipment, etc. Thus offering a high quality service is the best way for a carrier to differentiate itself from its competitors in the market. The research aims to conduct an assessment on service quality at Wan Hai Lines (WHL) outbound services based on the SERVQUAL model, form of dimension-by-dimension analysis. This study was based on a survey of 135 people. The outcome is the service quality of WHL outbound services can be identified by three dimension(s): Empathy and Responsiveness, Assurance, and Reliability. It would help management to have an overall picture about the current service quality, and to find solutions to improve service quality following the recommendations. WHL managers need to recognize that "Reliability" has the strongest influence on customers' expectations, then come "Empathy and Responsiveness" and "Assurance". Therefore, board of managers should spend time looking carefully at each of the three dimensions, especially for the biggest gap between perceptions and expectations of three dimensions as well. Then the recommendations were raised.

This study was carried out to investigate the current use and the demand for Jeonju-bibimbab rice and to suggest the suitable range of bibimbab rice. We conducted a survey on varieties and rice quality of Jeonju bibimbab restaurants from April to August 2016. In a survey of 12 bibimbab restaurants in Jeonju, the restaurants showed that 83% of the 10 restaurants were using shindongjin rice variety. Characteristics of rice suitable for bibimbab were showed low stickiness, high hardness, so it should keep the shape of rice when cooked and mixed with the ingredients. and people tend to prefer a large grain of rice. Also, the rice used in bibimbab restaurants were examined the average percentages of head rice ratio 89%, protein content 6% and moisture content 14.5%. These results suggest that the quality of rice, which is suitable for bibimbab, is similar to the range of common rice. Thousand grain weight over 24g is especially preferred. In conclusion, the quality and grain size of rice preferred for bibimbab rice was the level of Shindongjin.

Internet protocol television (IPTV), one of the most emerging services, offers multimedia streaming services with security, reliability, and relevant quality of service (QoS)/quality of experience (QoE). It provides added values to all the involving players and also brings technical and business challenges to them. For IPTV services, we expect to adopt the next generation network (NGN) environment for high quality and the Web technologies for personalization to meet the customer's necessity. Web can provide an open, flexible, and agile platform. Therefore, in this paper, we propose personalized IPTV services based on Web-based open platform in NGN environment and present functional architecture for Web-based personalized IPTV services. Technical issues for deploying the proposed IPTV services using Web are also provided. The objective of this paper is to analyze the critical architectural issues for developing viable and feasible networking platform models for personalized IPTV services.

오늘날 시스템 사용에 있어 가장 큰 문제 중의 하나는 사용자의 요구를 잘 반영하지 못하는 데에 있다. 이러한 사용자의 요구를 반영하기 위해 기존의 많은 연구들은 기기나 서비스 자체에 초점을 두어 중요한 사용 품질요인을 규명하여 왔다. 그러나 모바일 컴퓨팅 서비스는 언제 어디서나 사용이 가능하기 때문에 사용 품질요인이 기존의 정보 시스템과는 다르게 나타나게 된다. 이러한 상황에도 불구하고 기존 연구들은 사용 환경을 고려하여 중요한 사용 품질요인을 도출하기 보다는 기기나 서비스 자체에 초점을 두어 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 모바일 컴퓨팅 서비스를 대상으로 모바일 컴퓨팅 서비스 특성에 맞는 중요한 사용 품질요인을 도출하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 대표적인 모바일 컴퓨팅 서비스로 모바일 데이터 서비스를 선정하고 모바일 데이터 서비스 사용자를 대상으로 맥락 집중 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 인터뷰 실시 후 분석 결과, 모바일 컴퓨팅 서비스는 기존 정보 시스템에서 중요하게 나타났던 사용 품질요인과 다르게 나타났다.

최근 이슈가 되고 있는 IPTV 서비스의 성공적인 정착과 관련된 중요한 이슈로 서비스 품질을 들 수 있다. 현재 IPTV 서비스의 품질에 영향을 미치는 상당히 많은 파라미터들이 알려져 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고 실시간으로 모든 파라미터를 전부 감시하고 관리한다는 것은 현실적으로 거의 불가능한 일이다. 따라서 IPTV 서비스에 미치는 영향의 정도가 큰 몇몇 핵심 파라미터를 선정하는 것이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 목적을 위하여 본 논문에서는 IPTV 서비스의 품질을 감시하고 측정하는 실제 환경을 구성하고 각 파라미터가 이에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 한다. 특히 MPEG-2 전송 스트림 계층에서 측정되는 Continuous Count Error(CCE)에 주목하여 이의 영향이 다른 파라미터에 비해 매우 큼을 보인다.

클라우드 서비스가 증가하고 다양해짐에 따라 클라우드 서비스 사용자들의 요구사항을 만족하는 가장 적절한 서비스를 찾아주는 클라우드 서비스 브로커(CSB) 기술이 나타났다. CSB를 통해 클라우드 서비스가 사용되는 것을 촉진시키기 위해서는 서비스 수준 협약(SLA) 기반의 협상 과정을 통해 사용자들의 요구사항에 맞는 품질 수준을 보장하는 것이 중요하다. 그러나 클라우드 서비스 유형 별로 품질 수준을 표현하는 측정 기준과 척도, 계산 방식이 서로 상이하다. 따라서 클라우드 서비스의 품질에 대한 가변성을 분석하고, 분석된 품질 수준을 보장 및 개선하기 위한 SLA 모델이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 cross-cutting 개념을 적용하여 클라우드 서비스의 유형 별 품질 메트릭을 분석하고 사용자와 제공자 간의 품질 수준에 대한 협상을 담당하는 VSLA(Variable SLA) 메타모델을 제안한다.
