Purpose: As the nation is becoming an aging society, there is an increasing number of the patient who has Diseases of cardiovascular disease. So it is necessarily to build a facility which provides specialized health care. Methods: Field surveys to facilities and analysis to the floor plan have been conducted in order to suggest adequate architectural composition to the specialized cardiovascular center and the dimensions of rooms. Results: The result of this study can be summarized into six points which contain guide to how to organize the specialized cardiovascular center. One of the most important things in this study is to suggest the architectural type which provides efficient collaborating system between the outpatient and angiography unit. Implications: It can be said that this paper can be useful research material when the architect tries to plan the specialized cardiovascular center.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to seek in-depth perspectives of stakeholders on the necessity and specific criteria for designating a specialized hospital for urologic diseases. Methods: Eight participants experts in urology medicine and specialized hospital system were divided into four groups. Following the semi-structured guidelines, an in-depth interview was conducted twice and a focus group discussion was conducted three times. All the interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed. Results: The majority of participants predicted that there would be demand for specialized hospitals for urologic diseases. The criteria of designating a specialized hospital, such as the number of hospital beds and quality of health care, have to be modified in consideration of the specificity of urology. The introduction of a specialized hospital would improve the healthcare delivery system, positively affecting hospitals and patients. Furthermore, government support is essential for the maintenance of specialized hospital systems as urology hospitals experience difficulties in generating profits. Conclusion: This study is expected to be used as base data for introducing and operating a specialized hospital for urologic diseases. In addition, it is expected that the methodology and results of this study would encourage follow-up studies on specialized hospitals and provide guidelines to evaluate the effectiveness of such hospitals in other medical fields.

This study is about an architectural change for traditional hospitals to meet the challenges of the rapidly changing general hospital through a case study on specialized centers in Korea. Rapidly changed social facts are made new paradigm which is not functional organization but patient centered. It makes many changes from traditional hospital to specialized center, such as disease based care organization, cancer center. The purpose of this study is to find architectural design guidelines for general hospitals which are struggling to change from to functionally organized hospital to the new disease and organ based care center that are patient focused. In order to find applicable design guidelines, analyze general hospital's organizational features and their factors.

Public research, which requires large computational resources, utilizes the supercomputers of the National Supercomputing Center in the Republic of Korea. The average utilization rate of resources over the past three years reached 80%. Therefore, to ensure the operational stability of this national infrastructure, specialized centers have been established to distribute the computational demand concentrated in the national centers. It is necessary to predict the computational demand accurately to build an appropriate resource scale. Therefore, it is important to estimate the inflow and outflow of computational demand between the national and specialized centers to size the resources required to construct specialized centers. We conducted a logit model analysis using the probabilistic utility theory to derive the preferences of individual users for future supercomputer resources. This analysis shows that the computational demand share of specialized centers is 59.5%, which exceeds the resource utilization plan of existing specialized centers.

University Research Centers specialized in defense technology(DURCs) were designed to develop fundamental knowledge and to acquire core technologies related to defense development by conducting creative and interdisciplinary research. The centers also have a function of fostering scientists and practitioners possessing defense-oriented cross-disciplinary knowledges. Since the outset of the DURC in 1994, Sixteen DURCs have been funded and eleven DURCs are now in operation. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the operational status and the performance of DURCs and to suggest ideas on improving the effectiveness of the DURC program by comparing with the Korea Excellent Research Center program and the U.S. National Science Foundation(NSF) Engineering Research Center(ERC) program.

Number of information users of industry, school and research institute with arrival of knowledge information society are in trend that increase gradually the 21th century. Manufacture user number of database been circulating is examined to fourteen million, six hundred and twenty-four thousand people in internal until end of 2002 if follow to Korea data base promotion center, this shows increase more than yearly mean $70\%$ every year by increasing provision $70.3\%$ past years. That collect rapidly and analyze connection importance information of scientific technique field in this hard fact and offer efficiently timely to investigator processing can say as indispensable indispensability a element in country science technique elevation. Wish to illuminate Specialized Information Center of scientific technique field's role and significance in this hard fact in this research, and examine the role and significance. Together, wish to present way for research direction and Specialized Information Center development by introducing phase thesis and synthetic middle, effort of Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information(KISTI) for special skill development way preparation and study finding for each Specialized Information Center.

Purpose: The medical care for children in Korea is needed more than previous time as the situation changed. However, there is a few useful research for the planning of the children's specialized public medical center. This study has been started to provide basic information for the planning of Korean children's specialized public medical center. Methods: Research and architectural documentation with field surveys to 5 of 14 children's specialized public medical center, data have been analyzed for characteristics of children's medical care. Results: The result of this study can be summarized into three points. The first one is that children's medical care can be categorized independent and integrated type according to connection with main hospital. Independent type has vertical or horizontal form from spatial composition. The second one is that spatial composition are allocated by typical service, outpatient, central, and inpatient ward zones. The outpatient zone has horizontal/vertical type, central zone has concentrated/separated type by spatial and treatment situation of medical center. The third one is that children's hospital school is the specific program and healing environment for children. Implications: It is necessary to make typical model for national wide medical care for children in Korea.
