  • Evidence based clinical practice guideline are designed to help healthcare practitioners evaluate and implement the increasing amount of evidence on best practice. Critical care area is one of the clinical sites where evidence based clinical practice guideline is needed most. This paper reviewed the definition of evidence based clinical practice guidelines, the development method of evidence based clinical practice guideline, and the current trends in guideline developing. Traditional method of guideline development is consensus based but it moves into evidence based development. Evidence based guideline is based on best available evidence and uses the strongest method to determine its effect on clinical outcomes. The current trends in guidelines is to develop the guideline at regional/national level and do subsequent modification to suit local circumstances. There is an urgent need of exploring the method of guideline development and adaptation which are appropriate for Korean clinical setting.

  • Purpose - India is predicted to lead the world in online sales, but the behavioral range of online consumer has not been researched adequately. Moreover, the research on the role of psychological variables like consumer innovativeness in online purchase behavior has not been investigated. This paper aims to unravel the role of 'consumer innovativeness' in predicting online purchase intention. Further, this paper examines the effect of consumer innovativeness on 'online information search' and 'attitude' in online purchase areas. Research design, data, and methodology - This study uses factor analysis to confirm the convergent and discriminant validities from the adopted scales. Regression analysis was employed to test the various hypotheses in this study. Results - This study finds that consumer innovativeness affects positively 'information search', 'attitude' and 'purchase intentions' in online purchase circumstances. Conclusions - Consumer Innovativeness has emerged as a significant factor affecting online purchase intentions. It has also been confronted with an important variable affecting online information search and attitudes for online purchase.

  • Up to now, monthly water balance analysis has been dominantly used for the water resources planning. But, it is more reasonable to explain the variation of spatial and temporal distribution of water by the daily water balance model with daily streamflow data. Since we are recently facing the problems of regional unbalance of water quantity, and of multiuse of irrigation water, and of deterioration of water quality, it is urgently needed to develop the daily water balance model to solve those problems and establish the rational plannings of agricultural water resources. In the circumstances, Daily water Balance(DAWABA) model for irrigation reservoirs was developed and the operation rule of irrigation resorvoir during drought season was established.

  • u-방재City는 첨단 IT 인프라를 기반으로 유비쿼터스기술과 단위서비스를 활용하여 시민이 안전하고 편안하게 생활할 수 있도록 재난으로부터의 피해를 최소화한 도시이며, u-방재City 서비스란 도시의 지능화된 기반시설과 정보통신망을 활용하여 재난상황을 상시 모니터링하고, 이를 통해 재난의 사전 예방과 상황 발생 시 신속한 대응이 가능하도록 하는 서비스로 정의된다. 이러한 u-방재City 서비스는 지역간 서비스간 상호 운용성 확보가 매우 중요하며 국가재난관리의 큰 틀 내에서 추진되어야 하는데, 이를 위해서는 지역의 재난발생 특성과 서비스 수요 및 인프라 여건 등을 종합적으로 조사 분석하여 서비스 모델을 개발하여야 한다. 본연구는 u-방재City 서비스의 체계적인 개발과 효율적인 운영을 위해 지역의 재난발생 특성과 재난관리 업무현황, 서비스 제공을 위한 인프라 여건, 서비스 수요 및 요구사항 등을 조사 분석하고, 이를 토대로 u-방재City 서비스 개발 및 운영 방향을 제시함을 목적으로 한다.

  • The traditional farm houses in Yongdong area of Kangwon province have a different spatial structure from those of the other areas because of the characteristics of the climatic, geographic and sociocultural circumstances between the Taebaek mountains and the East Sea. So the purpose of this study is aimed at grasping how the spatial features of traditional farm houses in Yongdong area have been different in each regional circle. The plans of traditional farm houses of this region which are four types - ㅡ typed house without floor, ㅡ typed house with floor, ㄱ typed house without floor, ㄱ typed house with floor - show very similar but different space arrangements.

  • This research is basically deals with an inventory distribution system with several regional sides branches. Under the continuous review policy, each sales branch places an order to its supplier whenever on hand plus on order inventory falls on the order point, and the order quantity is received after elapsing a certain lead time. This research first shows the method how to apply the product with low lever of demand into the continuous review policy. For the application, we use an order level as the maximum level of inventory during an order cycle. Also we analyze the lost sales case as a customer behavior. Further we use variable demands and variable lead times for more realistic situation. Based on the above circumstances, the research mainly discusses those methods to decide the optimal order level, order point, and order quantity for each sales branch which guarantees the system wide goal level of service, while keeping the minimum level of the system wide total inventory.

  • The objective of this study is to establish an actual optimization strategy for the traditional multi-stage distribution system which consists of factory warehouse, central distribution warehouse, and regional distribution warehouse under the basic assumption of distribution system. A minimization algorithm of total operating cost in a multi-stage distribution system was developed by expanding the previously existing algorithm through consideration of additional transportation environment. Alternative non-linear transportation costs for the same travel distance can be applied for the multi-stage distribution system by estimating the corresponding characteristic values through the collection of the actual data representing the change of transportation circumstances.

  • Resilience has been suggested as a new paradigm of disaster management which reduces losses against disasters under the uncertain circumstances. The purpose of this study is to define the concept and to set up the objectives of urban resilience for disaster management. The common concept and components of resilience were analyzed by examining recent studies on resilience. The resilience was defined as "a capacity of physical and social urban elements adapting and recovering against disaster for better condition" and the five objectives of resilience - Robustness, Redundancy, Resourcefulness, Rapidity, and Regional Competency - were derived from the review of literatures. The major disasters and accidents were analyzed focused on those objectives. The concept and objectives of urban resilience could be used as a guidance for disaster prevention planning and disaster management processes.
