  • 본 연구는 폐쇄루프 공급망을 최적화하기 위한 녹색 폐쇄루프 공급망 네트워크(GCSN)를 제안한다. GCSN은 물류 유통과정에 투입되는 익스프레스 박스의 재활용에 중점을 두고 연구하였다. 이를 통해 물류공급망 작업의 표준화와 전자상거래 업체의 증가에 따른 익스프레스 박스의 사용의 가속화와 전자상거래 업계의 익스프레스 상자의 재활용을 통한 자원 낭비를 최소화하는 녹색공급망을 추진한다. GCSN은 유통흐름과 자원의 투입요소는 수학식으로 표현하며 LINGO를 사용하여 구현된다. 녹생 즉, 환경 보호의 관점에서 전자상거래 산업의 지속가능한 발전을 견인하는 유통의 과정이다. 또한 자원 부족에 따른 원자재 가격 상승에 대응하고 전자상거래 업체들의 친환경적으로 익스프레스 상자를 투입하는 전략의 필요성을 부각시켰다. 이와 같은 이유로 본 연구는 전자상거래 업체에서 사용하는 재활용이 가능한 익스프레스상자를 연구대상으로 하며, 공급망 네트워크에서 시설 위치와 할당문제도 통합적으로 고찰한다. 마지막으로 본 연구의 결론과 시사점을 도출하였다.

  • Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 are the major serotypes associated with illness, and some V. cholera non-O1 and non-O139 isolates produce cholera toxin. The present study describes a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay for the species-specific detection and quantitation of V. cholera using a primer pair based on an outer membrane lipoprotein lolB gene for the amplification of a 195 bp DNA fragment. The qPCR primer set for the accurate diagnosis of V. cholera was developed from publically available genome sequences. This quantitative PCR-based method will potentially simplify and facilitate the diagnosis of this pathogen and guide disease management.

  • Objectives: Chemicals derived from various environment media contaminates food across the food supply chain. In Korea, levels of contaminants in food have been sporadically measured by monitoring programs of different government agencies. There is difficulty with data compilation and integrated analysis across media. Therefore, the aim of this study was to propose an overall integrated database and analytical platform design for the 'ECO-FOOD NET (Environmental COntaminant reduction platform for FOOD through an interagency collaboration NETwork)', a tool to support the reduction of environmental contaminants in food. Methods: We developed a new data structure and standardized protocols for the compilation of integrated data. In addition, we conducted subject-oriented logical and physical relational database modeling and created the architecture design of the platform. Results: We established a standardized code system related to exposure media and route, analysis method and food matrix. In addition, we designed the seven software modules of 'About the System', 'Introduction to Interagency Work', 'Media-Chemicals Profiles', 'Method Bank', 'Monitoring Data Base', 'Integrated Media Analysis', and 'Risk-Benefit Analysis'. Conclusions: This study will contribute to decision-making as a tool for executing risk management, such as sustainable reduction policies of contaminants in food.

  • 본 연구는 물류관리자들이 갖추어야할 기술 및 자격요건이 무엇인지 파악하기 위해 중국에 진출해 있는 국내기업의 물류관리자들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 조사에 사용할 총 43개의 항목을 문헌연구 및 전문가집단과의 토의를 거쳐 추출하였고, 요인분석을 통해 이 항목들을 특성별로 4개의 그룹으로 분류하여 연구에 사용하였다. 조사 결과, 공급체인에 관한 인식정도, 의사결정능력, 분석능력, 의사소통스킬, 공급체인의 비용에 관한 지식, 대인관계기술, 정보흐름의 통합능력 등을 포함하는 물류계획그룹의 항목들이 가장 중요한 물류관리자의 자격요건인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 반면, 회수물류의 기술이나 환경관련 법규의 파악정도 등이 포함된 환경인식그룹의 항목들은 그 중요도가 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 전체적으로는 요인분석 결과 선택된 총 23개 항목 중 물류관리자들의 업무에 유의한 영향을 주는 것으로 밝혀진 것은 14개로 전체의 61% 정도였다. 본 연구의 결과는 물류업계로 진출하기 희망하는 미래의 물류인, 물류를 전공하고 있는 학생들, 이들을 지도하는 학자들 그리고 중국시장 진출을 계획하는 기업들에게 흥미로운 정보를 제공할 것으로 생각한다. 기업의 입장에서는 상위에 랭크된 요건들을 갖추고 있는 관리자들을 중국으로 파견할 수 있을 뿐 아니라 기업 내 교육훈련프로그램의 가이드라인으로 활용할 수도 있을 것이다. 또한, 현재 혹은 잠재적 물류관리자들이 자신들의 경쟁력을 향상시키기 위해 어떤 부분에 노력을 경주해야 하는지 판단하는 데에도 도움이 될 것으로 생각한다.

  • This study investigates the main trend of LOHAS, examines and analyzes the LOHAS marketing cases of the fashion industry, and proposes an effective LOHAS marketing strategy for the domestic fashion market. Data were collected from Naver, Google and Daum from 2005 (when LOHAS began to be recognized) to October $31^{st}$ 2010. We searched the research material with keywords related to the research subject (such as eco, green, well being, echo-friendly, LOHAS, sustainable, environmental management, and green management) to conduct a theoretical and exploratory study through qualitative analysis. The data are analyzed with three types such as personal value of eco-friendly fabric, economical value of recycled fabric and re-use or re-form, and social-ethical value of distribution and promotion. The research results show that LOHAS marketing activities focused on personal values and social-ethical values (rather than economical value) and from an eco-friendly management centered on merchandise; in addition, an eco-friendly supply chain management incorporated with a management system were applied. LOHAS marketing strategies at home and abroad revealed some differences in the cases of eco-friendly fabric, recycling, and fair trade.

  • Promotion of a closed-loop supply chain requires disassembly systems that recycle end-of-life (EOL) assembled products. To operate the recycling disassembly system, parts selection is environmentally and economically carried out with non-destructive or destructive disassembly, and the recycling rate of the whole EOL product is determined. As the number of disassembled parts increases, the recycling rate basically increases. However, the labor cost also increases and brings lower profit, which is the difference between the recovered material prices and the disassembly costs. On the other hand, since the precedence relationships among disassembly tasks of the product also change with the parts selections, it is also required to optimize allocation of the tasks in designing a disassembly line. In addition, because information is required for such a design, the recycling rate, profit of each part and disassembly task times take precedence among the disassembly tasks. However, it is difficult to obtain that information in advance before collecting the actual EOL product. This study proposes and analyzes an optimal disassembly system design using integer programming with the environmental and economic parts selection (Igarashi et al., 2013), which harmonizes the recycling rate and profit using recyclability evaluation method (REM) developed by Hitachi, Ltd. The first stage involves optimization of environmental and economic parts selection with integer programming with ${\varepsilon}$ constraint, and the second stage involves optimization of the line balancing with integer programming in terms of minimizing the number of stations. The first and second stages are generally and mathematically formulized, and the relationships between them are analyzed in the cases of cell phones, computers and cleaners.

  • Research indicates that good front-end planning (FEP) results in the achievement of higher levels of project performance. By facilitating collaboration among stakeholders in diverse locations with the use of workflow-enabled processes, such pressures can be reduced, and the overall process and results of FEP can be improved. With these goals, a front-end planning tool (FEPT) has been developed as support for owners and major contractors who are engaged in front-end planning. This paper presents the new FEPT and describes how it has been used for construction megaprojects in the nuclear power, oil and gas, and mining industries. The paper begins with the definitions related to and an explanation of the general process for implementing and applying the FEPT and then describes and analyzes how the FEPT was applied in case study projects in order to test its validity. The results indicate that the FEPT increases the efficiency and effectiveness of front-end planning for the megaprojects studied and that it has the potential to produce similar results for other megaprojects.

  • Purpose: Electric vehicle (EV) technology started in 2015 in Thailand. The Thai Government has indicated that 30% of all cars produced in Thailand by 2025 will be EVs. Using EVs in Thailand will reduce road pollution and increase energy efficiency, especially in major cities. Hence, the adoption of EVs in the country has been promoted. This study pointed out that social influence, facilitating conditions, perceived enjoyment, environmental concern, attitude, and perceived behavioral control are key factors affecting the behavioral intention to adopt EVs among logistic and distribution firms in Thailand. Research design, data, and methodology: 500 top management, middle management and purchasing managers of logistic and distribution firms in Thailand are surveyed. The study employed judgmental, convenience, and snowball sampling. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Model (SEM) are the main statistical tools for data analysis. Results: The results show that all determinants impact customers' willingness to adopt EVs, except perceived enjoyment and environmental control. Conclusions: The study proposes to promote the incentives by decreasing electricity prices and endorsing EVs purchase to accelerate the adoption of EVs in Thailand. Therefore, future policies should focus on behavioral intention toward EVs amongst logistic and distribution firms for enhancing the future of mobility in Thailand.
