The main issue of defect dispute is consulting, reviewing, and finally judging as an arbiter. A defect consulting is represented a defect consulting report, but a business custom and a standard of judgment are different each consultants, and have many problems. This study reviews literature studies and institutional researches, set up a research structure. it has 7 indexes that 5 indexes are formal indexes, and the other are qualitative indexed. As a result of case study, formal indexes are respect on the whole. However, each appraiser has different ideas, and, is expected to delay on fixing a construction lawsuit practice. This study suggests to improve a defect consulting report, it is followed. In formal part, suggested to change configuration is adjusted and integrated similar items. In qualitative part, an evaluation system for appraiser and an education program for engineers is suggested.

This study aims 1) to identify distinctive consumer groups according to their perception of benefits and costs of Online Behavioral Advertising(OBA), 2) to explore differences among them, and 3) to investigate antecedent variables that affect the consumers' perception of OBA. Online survey data collected from 1,000 online users. The findings of this study are as follows. First, the result of cluster analysis identified four distinctive consumer groups according to the levels of perceived benefits and costs of OBA: 'Indifferent group', 'cost-centered group', 'benefit-centered group', and 'Benefit-cost balanced group'. Second, four consumer groups showed differences in their demographics, advertising related variables, privacy related variables, and technology related variables. Third, according to multinomial logistic analysis, it was found that there were different factors affecting consumers' perception of benefits and costs of OBA.

This paper investigates the problem of synchronization of the Pehlivan chaotic system based on sliding mode control and GA. For this, a brief overview of the Pehlivan chaotic system is given. Then, the conventional sliding mode control technique is described and a synchronization method using GA strategy is proposed. The proposed method is that the GA searched the parameters including sliding plane and control gains) selected by the designer in the sliding mode control are searched optimally through the GA. The GA in the MATLAB Toolbox was used and simulation work is shown to illustrate the effectiveness of the synchronization schemes for the chaotic system.

In this study, a new dynamic VRF-type heat pump simulation model is proposed which incorporates frosting and defrosting models. Toward this end, a simple frosting model based on the perfect analogy, and lumped system based defrost model, are proposed. Then, frosting and defrosting models are incorporated into a dynamic heat pump model which adopts segment-by-segment local heat exchanger model and map-based variable speed compressor model. Thus, the model can naturally represent locally uneven frosting and defrosting on the heat exchanger surface. Developed simulation model is validated against available experimental data to show good agreement within 10% error for capacity and COP. Finally, developed dynamic heat pump model is applied to annual heating season simulation to show that seasonal COP of heat pump is degraded by 7% due to frosting and defrosting.

Internet Protocol Television(IPTV) is the use of an IP broadband network to deliver television (cable TV type) services to the end user. Traditional telecommunications service providers as well as alternate service providers and Internet service providers can utilize their IP networks (and broadband consumer access) to deliver broadcast TV, Video on Demand (VOD) and other Internet services to the consumer. As digital technologies progress, illegal copy and redistribution of IPTV content become easier and simpler. Therefore it is required to protect IPTV content or service. In this paper, we analyze the security threats and requirements. We also discuss related issues and solutions for IPTV.

The pseudophase separation model is used to describe the effects of pH and n-propanol on the mixed micellar formation of protonated and unprotonated dimethyldodecylamine oxides. Dimethyl-dodecylamine oxide surfactant molecules may exist in aqueous solution in either nonionic (unprotonated) or cationic (protonated) form, and they can be modeled thermodynamically as a binary mixture of cationic and nonionic surfactants. The composition of the binary mixture is varied by adjusting the solution pH. And activities, micellar compositions, and monomeric compositions of two surfactant species can be calculated directly from the experimental titration data by applying pseudophase separation model to the micellar system of DDAO in water/n-propanol. The critical micellar concentrations and the p$K_a$ values of the binary mixture systems are dependent on the micellar composition of the protonated cationic surfactant (X); especially they show the minimum phenomena when they are plotted against the micellar composition of the protonated cationic surfactant (X). The critical micellar concentration of the binary mixed DDAO system is generally decreased when n-propanol is added to the binary mixture system, and the degree of decrease is dependent on the concentration of n-propanol.

The solubilization of p-bromophenol by the micellar system of TTAB(tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide) and the micellization of TTAB were studied by the UV-vis spectrophotometric method simultaneously. And the effects of temperature on these properties have been measured for the thermodynamic study. The results show that the ${\Delta}G_s{^o}$ and ${\Delta}H_s{^o}$ values are negative and the ${\Delta}S_s{^o}$ values are positive for the solubilization of p-bromophenol within the measured range. On the other hand, the ${\Delta}G_m{^o}$ values are negative and the ${\Delta}H_m{^o}$ and ${\Delta}S_m{^o}$ values are positive for the micellization of TTAB. The effects of additives such as n-butanol and NaCl have been studied also for both properties and the relationship between these two properties has been also studied. From the results, we can postulate the solubilization site of p-bromophenol in the micelle.

This study was to find out the influence of smoking behavior in Korean adults on chronic diseases using data from the seventh Korea national health and nutrition examination survey(KNHANES VII-2) 2017. The subjects were 6,193. The data were analyzed by frequency analysis, x² test and logistic regression analysis using SPSS 25 complex samples Win program. The main findings were that smoking age and smoking behavior were considered as early as the age of smoking, and in case of smoking in the past, the prevalence of chronic disease increased 1.30 times and 2.75 times, respectively. When the subjects' health behaviors and demographic characteristics were simultaneously corrected, the higher the age was, the more they were 0.25 times higher and 0.34 times higher than the graduate level of education. As a result, it is necessary to improve lifestyles such as obesity and lack of exercise, to reduce the prevalence of chronic disease in Korean adults, and to pay attention to younger age groups. There is a need to develop interdisciplinary convergent approaches with great interest.

We have investigated whether the supplement of magnesium to cold blood cardioplegia improves myocardial protection. Sixty patients scheduled for elective valvular heart surgery were randomly assigned to a control group (n=30) which received conventional cold blood cardioplegia and an Mg group (n=30) which received cold blood cardioplegia supplemented with 2 g of magnesium sulfate. Electrolytes levels including $Mg^{++}$, hematological and biochemical variables, cytokines, myocardial marker levels, and postoperative outcomes were compared between two groups before, during or idler operation. $Mg^{++}\;and\;Ca^{++}$ levels in the Mg group were higher than those of the control group after surgery. The total WBC counts, CK-MB, troponin-I and Interleukin-6 levels in the Mg group were lower than those of the control group after surgery. Postoperative incidence of atrial fibrillation was lower in the Mg group compared with the control group. These results showed that $Mg^{++}$ attenuated inflammatory reaction, myocardial damage, and hypomagnesemia during valvular surgery and reduced postoperative arrhythmia incidence without side effects.

In general, multiple mobile hosts (MH) access at a base station (BS) that terminates the wired link and relays data flow to the wireless link in wired and wireless heterogeneous network. In this network, the BS is tend to be a bottleneck and to degrade a network performance. Many studies have been done throughout several protocol layers. Especially on the transport layer, many techniques were studied to enhance TCP performance. But most of them are concerned to enhance TCP throughput and TCP fairness is hardly considered. In this paper, an algorithm for enhancing TCP fairness is proposed and its performance is verified by ns-2 simulation.
