As information systems are introduced in organizations, user attitudes toward IS are crucial factors for the success of such systems. Hence, understanding what affects user attitudes should be a major concern in MIS research. The purpose of this study is to improve the understanding of social influence on IS adoption. Social influence construct is stretched to include four items: subject norm, image, visibility, and voluntariness. Also, this paper examines the roles of two moderators regarding social influence: user characteristics and IT maturity. We could find that 1) social influence has a significant impact on perceived usefulness(PU), perceived ease of use(PEU), and intention, 2) the social influence on PU is more noticeable for knowledge worker than for undergraduate student, and 3) social influence on knowledge worker's PU is stronger for emerging IT(e.g., wireless internet services) than for mature IT(e.g., spreadsheet software).

Fabrication, falsification, plagiarism (so-called FFP), and other unethical acts damage the trust of public in science and scientists. Scientific communities, governments and research institutions should take the appropriate countermeasures. With the increasing visibility and importance of problem, funding agencies and policy-makers find that they must have a better understanding of this phenomenon, and take steps to prevent it. Science is often said as a borderless activity. In these days, many scientific misconduct cases have been emerging almost simultaneously and worldwide. Thus, the immediate actions should be taken internationally as well as nationally. From these points of view, we, Japan, proposed a new international joint-study at OECD Global Science Forum in February 2006, and the proposal was approved with supports by many countries including Korea. OECD would seek an international perspective to address this worldwide problem, bringing together the representatives of science communities, publishers, funding agencies, and policy makers, and exchanging their experiences.

This paper investigates changing business transaction under the e-commerce environment and their implications on freight transport industry with some case studies. It shows that an efficient and reliable delivery system is essential for e-commerce as business industries are faced with the stricter and more diversified demands of customer. In addition, many aspects of business practices such as small batch, customized production and just-in-time distribution in the e-commerce environment, in turn, bring about a number of changes in the volume and service patterns of freight transport. E-commerce requires longer transport distances and often higher delivery frequencies. It also entails to a certain extent a modal shift towards truck and air freight transport modes. On the one hand, the logistical requirements of e-commerce goods may stimulate greater complexity in existing supply chain management, causing higher costs. However it is true that the increased visibility of goods through more efficient information flow allows more efficient and effective transport management in the logistics system.

에어로졸의 장거리 이동에 대한 연구는 황사의 수송과 기상특성, 황사의 연직 구조 분석, 황사의 성분 및 변질 등 황사 에어로졸의 화학적ㆍ물리적ㆍ기상학적 분석을 통하여 시행되어 왔다. 최근에 들어 인공위성을 이용한 대기의 광학적 두께(aerosol optical depth) 및 황사 에어로졸의 장거리 이동에 대한 위성관측은 황사현상에 대한 발현 예보를 가능하게 하였다. 광주과학기술원 환경모니터링 신기술연구센터는 기상청의 예보를 토대로 비정규적 황사 현상에 대한 에어로졸의 광ㆍ화학적 장거리 이동특성을 조사하기 위하여 예상 황사기간에 시정집중모니터링을 실시하였다.

대도시지역에서의 대기오염문제와 이와 연관된 시정감소 현상은 당면한 환경문제 중 시급히 해결해야 할 환경문제로 부각되고 있다. 여러 연구자들에 의하여 시정감소현상은 부유분진의 입경분포, 화학적조성, 대기오염도 및 상대습도와 같은 파종 기상조건들이 주원인인 것으로 알려져 있다. 특히 봄철에 발생하는 황사는 그 발생기간동안 현저한 입자상물질의 증가현상과 더불어 급격한 시정의 감소를 유발하는 특징을 나타내고 있어 발생기간동안 동일 장소에서 시정과 입자상물질의 모니터링 및 기상관측을 통해 그 특성을 연구할 필요성이 대기오염물의 장거리이동현상과 더불어 요구되고 있다.

시정장애현상의 직접적인 원인은 주로 0.1~2.0$\mu\textrm{m}$ 크기의 미세입자들에 의한 빛의 산란 및 흡수현상으로(Feidlander, 1977), 이러한 미세입자들은 각종 오염원에서 직접 배출되기도 하지만, 대부분 대기 중에서 1차 오염물질들이 서로 반응, 응축, 응집하여 생성, 성장한 2차 에어로솔이다(국립환경연구원, 1994). 2차 에어로솔의 생성 및 성장, 성분 및 농도는 기체상의 SO$_2$, NOx CO, CO$_3$, 총탄화수소 등과, 입자상인 부유분진의 농도와 같은 1차 오염물질들 뿐만 아니라, 온도, 습도, 풍향, 풍속, 일사량, 혼합고 등의 여러 기상조건 및 지형조건의 영향을 받는다.

There have been active research efforts in the development of a dual-use millimeter-wave radiometer as an aircraft landing aid in low visibility conditions. In this paper, we constructed a radiometer operating at the Ka-band where it is relatively easy to build RF components. The radiometer is used to collect radiometric signatures of some vehicles and land surfaces. Measured signatures suggest that vehicles with metallic surfaces yield signatures markedly different from nearby land surfaces so that they can easily be detected by a simple radiometer.

대기중에 존재하는 가스상ㆍ입자상 오염물질은 그 형태와 발생원, 함유물질 등이 매우 다양하며, 특히 산성가스와 에어로졸은 스모그 현상의 원인물질로서 수명단축과 가시도(Visibility) 감소의 원인으로 작용하여 건강에 직ㆍ간접적인 피해를 주고있어 대기질 관리의 주요 대상이 되고 있다. 미세입자(PM$_{2.5}$)는 시정장애에 영향을 미치고(Chow et al., 1993; Conner et al., 1991), PM$_{10}$보다도 호흡기 계통의 사망률에 더 큰 영향을 미친다고 보고되고 있다(Reichhardt, 1995).

This paper shows a feasibility analysis results on RFID for car positioning system. Usually, a car navigation is mainly based on GPS combined with map-matching. However, in the case of poor visibility of satellites, GPS can not supply accurate position information continuously. In recent years, RFID has been considered to be one of key technologies in positioning and localization area. But its application and research results in the area of vehicular positioning are not popular. RFID system consists of tag, reader, antenna and software such as drivers and middleware. The main function of RFID system in a vehicular positioning is to retrieve ID recorded position information from tags which set on the center of road. We propose a positioning method for vehicles using RFID and we present some indoor and outdoor experiment results to show that the proposed method is available in vehicle operational environments.
