The main findings from the analysis of the micro-determinants of joining union are : Firstly, joining union is mainly determined by union reach (supply-side) rather than by union propensity (demand-side). Secondly, union existence is closely correlated with firm size. Thirdly, job satifaction is not statistically significant with joining union, though it is significant with non-union workers' propensity to join union. Finally, trade union movement is required to extend union reach and emphasize institutional and behavioral factors for increasing union density.

The purpose of this paper is to present the optimal investment conditions of SOC facilities for maximizing regional social welfare in implementing the urban development project in the theoretical fashion. Particularily, SOC facilities are divided into both supply-side($P_s$) and demand-side SOC ($P_d$) in the paper. General equilibrium analysis from the intra-regional viewpoint by utilizing Pareto's Optimal Conditions and by revising Samuleson's Conditions for public goods($P_s$ and $P_d$) results in the optimum pattern of SOC investment. The following are important implications from the analysis. First, rather than the pursue social equity, SOC investment is to resolve the issue of efficiency to activate the regional economy. Second, the marginal rate of transformation (MRT) between $P_s$ and $P_d$ in the region is to play a significant role in structuring SOC investment plant of local government for social welfare maximization. Third, the optimal SOC investment policy based on this regional economy but also to generate the enhancement of soical amenities of the residents.

Purpose - This study aims to eradicate and halt the continuous life cycle of corruption. Only when ethical management policies are implemented can the business ethics system be effective and transparent. Research design, data, and methodology - The analyses and legislative measures designed by these organizations and countries were based on solid research, uncovered during my visits and interviews conducted with businessmen in those countries. Results - The main focus of in this study is as follows: First, to introduce the programs of UN, OECD, OAS, USA, and Asian countries noted for business ethics and transparency policies; Second, to define each function and problem of these countries' anti-corruption systems, including the U.S. federal government, and to examine Chinese trends. Conclusions - Ethical managements are necessary to improve business ethics. This study suggests four related areas for the purpose of discouraging bribery and corruption; these are improving global corporate governance standards, increasing financial transparency, improving good governance in the public service of the OECD member countries, and focusing on not only the supply side but also the demand side of the corruption market.

인구증가와 경제성장 및 문화발전에 수반하여 전력수요는 증가되고 사용시간과 장소가 집중되는 경향이다. 따라서 계절별, 일형별, 시간별, 지역별로 부하차이가 심해지고 부하율이 저하한다. 종래와 같이 예측되는 전력수요 곡선을 왜곡(distortion)시키지 않고 그대로 충족시킬 수 있는 설비를 계획하고 건설하여 운용하는 공급관리(SSM:Supply Side Management)에 의존할 때는 설비증설과 투자비가 증가하고 설비이용율이 저하하며 운전유지비가 증가하여 전력단가가 높아진다. 뿐만 아니라 지구환경을 해롭게 하는 CO$_{2}$ 배출량이 증가한다. 이러한 실저에서 설비투자비와 운전유지비를 절감하고 환경보전을 하기 위하여 수요곡선의 모양을 개선하도록 유도할 필요가 있다. 최근 세계적 추세는 부하관리와 효율향상 등으로 수요곡선 모양을 개선하는 수요관리(DSM:Demand-Side Management)에 치중하고 있다. 여기서는 전력수요고나리의 효과적 방법으로서 이른바 원격부하제어(RLC: Remote Load Control), 일명 직접부하제어(Direct Load Control)시스템으 개발기술을 검토한다. 개발코자 하는 RLC시스템은 일시정지시켜도 지장이 적은 수용가의 부하를 주기적으로 공급자가 제어할 수 있도록 하여 가변부하조성(Flexible Load Shape)을 하는 것이다. 가변부하조성은 필요시 운전예비율을 공급자와 수요자가 분담함으로서 전력수급의 안정을 도모하고 사회적 공급 지장비용을 경감시킬 수 있다.

A Boost Power Factor Correction (PFC) Converter employing Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) based Compound Active Clamping (CAC) technique is presented in this paper. An Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) Filer is connected at the line side of the proposed converter to suppress Electro Magnetic Interference. The proposed converter can effectively reduce the losses caused by diode reverse recovery. Both the main switch and the auxiliary switch can achieve soft switching i.e. ZVS under certain condition. The parasitic oscillation caused by the parasitic capacitance of the boost diode is eliminated. The voltage on the main switch, the auxiliary switch and the boost diode are clamped. The principle of operation, design and simulation results are presented here. A prototype of the proposed converter is built and tested for low input voltage i.e. 15V AC supply and the experimental results are obtained. The power factor at the line side of the converter and the converter efficiency are improved using the proposed technique.

The purpose of this study was to make a survey of the operation of childcare facilities in rural regions through in-depth interviews with 5 facility principals. Owing to regional disadvantages, rural childcare facilities have many problems as follows: uneven distribution of facilities, shortage of teachers, financial difficulties, unsuitable programs for rural regions, insufficient reeducation of principals and teachers, and poor operations and accessibility for handicapped or very young children. The principals proposed that many conditions might be made better as follows: evenly distributing facilities in step with needs and supply, raising the salary of teachers of rural facilities, supporting the facilities themselves side by side with supporting children, improving 'childcare fee supporting system' of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, developing and spreading programs suitable for rural regions, and promoting the reeducation of principals and teachers through online programs.

For electric traction using a large power converter, harmonic problem in the p-ower quality and regenerating energy in side of efficiency are important. Recently, by advance in power electronics technology, some countries are considering regenerative inverter from the points of view. when the electric tractions are stopped or driven through the falling slope way, it is very useful to supply surplus energy to the power source by regenerating system in the efficient side of energy and it is very economical. these regenerating energy are supported electrical equipment through DC line. In this research, the purposes are suppressing extra DC-line voltage and saving energy generated while electric traction is been driving on the falling slope way or reducing speed for railway using a 1500V DC-voltage. Besides, the accompanied defects of current distortion, low power factor and the voltage unbalance will be solved by developing the algorism of inverter having ability to compensate current harmonic.

Return piping is used in a solar combi-system for heating and hot water supply. When the temperature of the lower side of a storage tank is low due to hot water usage, the returned hot water after heating is mixed with the lower side cold water of the tank, and the useful energy is reduced. We studied the degree of thermal stratification in the tank, using either a diffuser or a manifold to prevent mixing. Using the diffuser, mixing starts from the bottom of the storage tank. On the other hand, the manifold has the marked effect of preventing mixing. As a result of experiments with changing the diameter and number of holes in the manifold, the optimum condition is 8.5 mm diameter and 96 holes, under the condition of 0.3 lpm.

한국의 전력 산업은 현재 개발도상국들의 급속한 경제성장에 의해 연료가격이 상승하고 NIMBY현상으로 인해 발전설비의 확장에 필요한 입지선정에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이러한 현상은 설비의 확장을 통한 공급측 수요관리(Supply-Side Management)에서 벗어나 전력사용의 효율성을 향상시킴으로써 안정적인 전력을 공급하는 수요측 관리(Demand-Side Management)의 중요성을 점차 크게 하고 있다. 수요측관리는 지원금을 이용하여 전력수요를 조절하고 있으며, 수요관리의 중요성이 커짐에 따라 지원금 규모는 점점 커지고 있다. 하지만 현재 지원금 산정에 대한 구체적인 연구가 진행되고 있지 않은 실정이므로 이에 대한 연구를 통해 더욱 효율적인 지원금 산정을 통한 수요관리 효과를 극대화 할 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 07년도에 지원금변화에 대한 잠재참여자의 선호도를 조사한 "지원금에 대한 수용가 반응도 조사"를 이용하여, 지원금 변화에 따른 수요관리 프로그램의 잠재참여자의 참여도를 수식화 함으로써 지원금 변화에 대한 수요관리 프로그램의 영향도를 분석할 수 있게 하는데 목적을 두고 있다.

In this paper, we have developed a technology-service relationship model which describes the diffusion process of a group of services and relevant technologies, and have applied the developed model to the prediction of the number of subscribers to the next generation mobile service. The technology-service relationship model developed in this paper incorporates the developing process of relevant technologies, a supply-side factor, into the diffusion process of specific services, while many diffusion models and multi-generation diffusion models in previous researches are mainly reflect the demand-side factors. So, the proposed model could effectively applied to the telecommunication services where the developing of the relevant technologies are very essential to the service Penetration. In our application, the Proposed model provides a competitive substitution between the next generation mobile service and the traditional mobile service.
