Gene regulation is a fundamental process in biological systems, where transcription factors (TFs) play crucial roles. Inferring transcriptional interactions between TFs and their target genes has utmost importance for understanding the complex regulatory mechanisms in cellular systems. On one hand, with the rapid progress of various high-throughput experiment techniques, more and more biological data become available, which makes it possible to quantitatively study gene regulation in a systematic manner. On the other hand, transcription regulation is a complex biological process mediated by many events such as post-translational modifications, degradation, and competitive binding of multiple TFs. In this review, with a particular emphasis on computational methods, we report the recent advances of the research topics related to transcriptional regulatory networks, including how to infer transcriptional interactions, reveal combinatorial regulation mechanisms, and reconstruct TF activity profiles.

유전자 네트웍 구축은 다양한 생물학적 실험 결과를 통하여 유전자간의 관계를 모델링하는 작업이다. 현재 유전자 섭동(perturbation) 실험은 대규모 유전자 조절 네트웍(regulatory genetic network) 구축을 위한 중요한 데이터로 인식되고 있다. 하지만 유전자 섭동 실험에 의한 결과는 하나의 유전자가 다른 유전자에 대하여 직접적 또는 간접적인 영향을 주는 지에 대한 정보를 파악하기 어렵다. 본 논문은 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 섭동 실험에 의한 결과로부터 생성된 복잡한 유전자 관계를 실제 생물마적 네트웍 형태로 단순화시키는 진화알고리즘을 제안하고자 한다. 실험은 진화 알고리즘이 임의의 복잡한 네트웍에 대하여 다양한 후보 네트웍 해를 제시해 줄 수 있는 결과를 보여 주고 있다.

Concerning the regulation of Internet service and the control of electronic commerce in China, It has not specific regulation and various rules or measures to enforce it yet. The common regulatory measures are that online business in some special areas must acquire a license or approval from relative agencies in advance. But whether licensing is an effect regulatory measure still takes time to verify. Accordingly these measures must be unified or coordinated to be enforced effectively. In order to encourage the development of E-Commerce, China will need to focus on developing rules that take advantage of the internet to encourage the economy, and establishing new legal rules or amending the traditional law to create a safe and secure legal environment for online transactions.

The computational discovery of transcription factor binding site is one of the important tools in the genetic and genomic analysis. Rough prediction of gene regulation network and finding possible co-regulated genes are typical applications of the technique. Countless motif-discovery algorithms have been proposed for the past years. However, there is no dominant algorithm yet. Each algorithm does not give enough accuracy without extensive information. In this paper, we explore the possibility of combining multiple algorithms for the one integrated result in order to improve the performance and the convenience of researchers. Moreover, we apply new high order information that is reorganized from the set of basis predictions to the final prediction.

1999년에 있었던 리스본에서의 유럽정상회담을 통하여 EU의 각 국가는 디지털화-지식기반의 경제체제로의 전환을 모색하게 되었다. 이러한 신경제체제로의 전환을 위한 대표적인 육성산업으로서 통신산업에 주목하게 되었다. 이러한 통신산업의 육성과 서비스 보급에 따른 이용자의 권익보호를 위하여 유럽연합은 통신규제정책에 대한 framework을 규정하게 되었다. 규제틀의 주요 원칙은 비차별성으로서, 기존의 사업자는 새로 시장에 진입한 신규사업자에 대해서 상호접속이나 설비병설(collocation)과 같은 서비스 제공시에 자사의 부서나 계열회사에게 제공하는 것과 비교하여 차별적으로 처리하지 말도록 하고 있다. 이러한 비차별성을 원칙으로 벤치마킹모형과 최적관행(best practice) 요금을 권장하고 있는데, 벤치마킹모형은 Bottom-Up형태의 통신망 재설계를 실시할 것을 권고하고 있다.

Identifying which international maritime legal instruments are mandatory or recommendatory is complicated task even for maritime regulatory bodies. Although International Maritime Organization (IMO) had tried to ease the complexity by adopting guidelines on uniform wordings for making reference to other instruments in IMO parent conventions, there has still been some confusion identifying the mandatory status of IMO instruments. The aim of this study was to map out a step-based guideline to resolve the complexity of the mandatory status of IMO instruments to the maximum extent possible. This study reviewed the history of IMO rule-making process to find the root cause of the problem, then analyzed the approaches of regulatory enforcement bodies to check the practices. In conclusion, readers are directed to find such information as to legal status of IMO instruments and an improvement is proposed to enhance the transparency of information sharing for maritime industry to make better informed decisions.

Untact mobile commerce shows a rapid growth due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic. And companies have a lot of tough competition in this trend. However, the detail pages of products which play an important role in purchase decision have been provided mostly for consumers in a form of stereotyped information composition. This study has found that the form of (image-centered vs. text-centered) information composition of detailed descriptions of products in the detail pages of mobile products has an effect on product attitude and purchase intention as consumers' information appeal methods vary depending on product types (search goods vs. experience goods). That is, search goods whose information search is easy and whose quality is predictable could be found that product attitude and purchase intention have a more positive effect on the form of image-centered information composition. And experience goods whose quality is unpredictable could be found that product attitude and purchase intention have a more positive effect on the form of text-centered information composition. And effects of congruence between product types based on Higgins' regulatory focus theory and the form of information composition have found to vary depending on consumers' chronic regulatory focus. Promotion focus seeking consumers showed effects of congruence between product types and the form of information composition and prevention focus seeking consumers did not show effects of congruence between them. That is, promotion focus seeking consumers have found to have more positive product attitude and purchase intention in the form of image-centered information composition of experience goods and text-centered information composition of search goods. And prevention focus seeking consumers have found to be unable to have an effect on product attitude and purchase intention even though the form of image or text-centered information composition of search and experience goods is presented. The study implies that the form of information composition should be designed, produced, and provided for consumers by considering product types and consumer propensity when designing it in the detail pages of mobile products.
