Recent information and communication technologies have already opened up new prospects for technology groups, especially in a knowledge-based society. A contemporary technological era, which can be stated as the hyper-connective Internet of Things surpassed the traditional service pattern and innovation pattern by conveying personalized, localized, and con-text-aware services close to different actors and users. The conventional boundary of the organization is disbanding as well as traditional innovation and research & development limits. This research article conducts a preliminary study about the hyper-connective Internet of Things technology portent with innovation 3.0 version based on an extended technological organization environment framework (E-TOEF). This article discusses the emergence of innovation 3.0 as a paradigm shift from a manufacturing paradigm to an actor-oriented paradigm. There is a need to shift from a manufacturing mindset to more user ergonomics and be aware of the potential of hyper-connective IoT on the revolution of innovation patterns to be more cooperative, open, and user-centered. Besides, this article would strain some conceptual approaches for the next-generation innovation paradigm known as "hyper-connective IoT" entitled innovation 3.0. This new innovation version goes beyond open innovation and undeniably clearly beyond closed innovation which was an earlier version.

It is a common observation that whenever any patient arrives at the front desk of a hospital, outpatient clinic, or other health-associated centers, they have to first queue up in a line and wait to fill in their registration form to get admitted. The long waiting time without any status updates is the most common complaint, worrying health officials. In this paper, UrNext, a location-aware mobile-based solution using Bluetooth low-energy (BLE) technology, is presented to solve the problem. Recently, a technology-oriented method has been gaining popularity in solving the healthcare sector's problems, namely the Internet of Things (IoT). The implementation of this solution could be explained through a simple example that when a patient arrives at a clinic for her consultation. There, instead of having to wait in long lines, she will be greeted automatically, receive a push notification telling her that she has been admitted along with an estimated waiting time for her consultation session. This will not only provide the patients with a sense of freedom but would also reduce uncertainty levels that are generally observed, thus saving both time and money. This work aimed to improve clinics' quality of services and organize queues and minimize waiting times in clinics, leading to patient comfortability and reducing the burden on nurses and receptionists. The results demonstrated that the presented system was successful in its performance and helped achieve high usability.

In highly dynamic IoT environments, the connection statuses of IoT resources and the availability of IoT-based services change frequently. Therefore, to successfully build distributed service registries for managing and finding the information about available services in an effective manner, it is crucial to minimize the overhead of message exchanges between registries and to reduce the time overhead for identifying the capabilities of available IoT resources and the services that can be provided by utilizing these capabilities. In this paper, we propose a lightweight messaging approach that uses hierarchical Bloom filters to efficiently represent service information to be exchanged and managed by distributed service registries for IoT environments with high mobility. We also propose a method for serializing the dimensions of a Bloom-filter-encoded search space. We conducted experiments to demonstrate the improvement in the service discovery performance, the reduction in message traffic among service registries, and the decrease in the latency when synchronizing distributed service registries.

Melosira octogona Schmidt has been documented primarily through illustrations and light microscopy photographs, resulting in incomplete morphological descriptions. In this study, the morphological characteristics of M. octogona were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, and the small subunit rDNA of the strain isolated from the coast of Jeju Island, South Korea, was analyzed for the first time. The cells were organized in short chains, with the frustules taking on an octagonal shape in the girdle view because of the straight, obliquely oriented valve margin. The cells were joined together in specific pairs by a cingulum. Imaging analysis via SEM revealed the presence of a hemispherical valve with a well-developed corona on the valve face, along with stellate thickening and rimoportulae. The epicingulum was composed of six ligulate bands punctuated by rows of circular to elongated pores. Genetic analysis of the 18S rDNA sequence suggested a close relationship between M. octogona and Melosira sp. (KJ961704), demonstrating a high degree of similarity. Meanwhile, it exhibited comparatively low similarity (99.0 %) to Melosira cf. octogona (AY485518). The results of our analysis can enhance the precise recognition of M. octogona and enrich our understanding of its phylogenetic position within the order Melosirales.

This study focuses on systematic structure of factors, which affect commercialization of ocean science and technology (OST), applying both grounded theory methodology (GTM) and semantic network analysis methodology (SNAM) by using in-depth interviews with 8 specialists previously experienced in the same field. This study further focuses on clarification of the distinctiveness and universality of commercialization factors on OST by comparatively analyzing on the commercialization factors of general sciences and technologies. Using SNAM, it was determined that commercialization success required connected support system, government support, technology marketing, technology power and characteristics of commercialized entities, which were identified as dominant factors. GTM presented an outcome that connected support systems among participants in commercialization and found that research institute strategies are significant factors in the core phenomenon of commercialization, while technology marketing, technology power and market-oriented technology are important conditions. In addition, the factors of technology, market, connection of participants and government support of commercialized entities are shown as equally important factors for commercialization of ocean science and technology. Secondly, SNAM results indicate that ocean science characteristics depend on a network of government support, research institute strategy, organization and manpower, capital power, and technology marketing, as these ocean science characteristics have been identified as significant factors in the GTM study. It has been determined that technology, market and government support should be connected in order for commercialization of ocean science and technology (OST). Moreover, commercialization methods, applied to the marketing of commercialization of ocean science and technology is differentiated from others since commercialization success is more relevant to these factors.

Technological substitution is the process by which a radical technology replaces the dominant technology in an industry. The processes of diffusion and substitution have been modeled extensively (Technology & innovation, 2010). However, the formulation of classical quantitative models encompasses only part of the theoretical space. These models impose many simplified constraints to the achievement of analytical resolution. The interior design organization needs to establish a set of technical system requirements by describing the scope of the accessibility needs of the organization against current technology use. Because of complicated design resources and ongoing advances in design technologies, design systems face the challenge of prioritizing new technologies for supporting. The problem is small design organization administration often displays a lack of concern toward the evaluation of technology integration. In this paper, I will identify the influence of a design organization's technology, and predict how future technology will inform, support, and potentially hinder productivity, culture, and work satisfaction within a design organization in the industry. In addition, I will use current design organizational behavior and leadership models to support my predictions. Finally, I will examine a proven approach to assist designers with evaluating technology integration in interior design organization. The goal is to develop a high quality, professional development scorecards for the evaluation. I will conduct both the evaluation of technology integration and CRM performance evaluation is recommended to assess the effectiveness of technology integration. Therefore, the evaluation of integration technologies oriented design hold the promise of solving the organization application integration challenge. The evaluation of integration technology is a significant pattern for processing such a vision. The careful selection of an integration technology for this purpose is crucial in contributing toward the success of such an interior design organization endeavor.

To achieve the "low carbon green growth" vision, the first step is securing core technologies. Therefore, S&T policy direction for green technology development is urgently needed. As of 2008, investment in green technology (GT) development hovered around 10% of the government's total R&D budget. Thus, the Korean government developed a plan to increase that percentage to 15%, by 2013. To develop reasonable investment strategies for green technology development, targeted strategies that reflect technology and market changes by green technology area are needed. However, the overall planning and coordination of national GT development is currently split among, approximately, 10 government ministries. To establish an efficient green technology development system, the so-called "Green Technology R&D Council" should be launched in collaboration with the Presidential Committee on Green Growth and the National Science and Technology Council. Furthermore, to build a solid foundation for commercializing the outcomes of GT development projects and promote GT transfer, the government should undertake two initiatives. First, the government should reinforce GT R&D performance management, by establishing a GT R&D performance management and evaluation system. Second, the government should implement the "customized packaged support for promoting green technology business rights and commercialization" and present "e-marketplace for market-oriented green technologies". Creating a pan-ministerial policy for GT development policy would necessitate restructuring the HR(Human Resources) development system, which is currently separated by technology area. Based upon mid/long-term HR supply and demand forecasts, the government should design differentiated HR development projects, continuously evaluate those projects, and reflect the evaluation results in future policy development. Finally, to create new GT-related industries, the "Green TCS (Testing, Certification, and Standards) System" needs to be implemented. For objective evaluation and diffusion of R&D results by green technology area, a common standardization plan for testing, analysis, and measurement, like the "Green TCS", should be developed and integrated.

This study was conducted to investigate a potential of Yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.) as a raw material for the manufacturing of particleboard (PB) and oriented strandboard (OSB). PB panels were prepared at the parameters of $0.7g/cm^3$ density, 15 mm thickness, three-layer, $E_1$ grade urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin, emulsion wax, and hardener. OSB panels were manufactured with a density of $0.65g/cm^3$, thickness of 10 mm, and $E_1$ grade of UF resin. Particle size of the face layer of PB was 20~80 mesh with 7~9% moisture content (MC), while that of core-layer was 3~20 mesh with 3~5% MC, which was similar to the production condition of commercial PB. As a result, the manufactured PB panels with 15.8 mm thickness, $0.7g/cm^3$ density, and 5.8% MC satisfied the requirement of bending strength of 15 type PB of Korean Industrial Standard (KS F 3104). Both internal bonding (IB) strength and surface screw withdrawal resistance also satisfied the requirement of 18 type PB of the standard. But, the edge screw withdrawal resistance satisfied the requirement of 15 type PB of the standard. These differences in properties could be due to the slenderness ratio of raw particles. In case of OSB panels with 10.7 mm thickness, $0.68g/cm^3$ density, and 5.8% MC satisfied all the requirements of bending strength, screw withdrawal resistance, and IB strength of 18 type PB of the standard. These results suggest that Yellow poplar wood has a good potential as a raw material for the production of PB and OSB.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of post-harvest CO₂ treatment on the quality of the 'Gonji-7ho' oyster mushroom. The harvested mushrooms were pre-cooled at 3℃ for 1 day and placed in a gas-tight chamber with 0%, 30%, or 50% of CO₂ concentration for 3 hours at 3℃. Next, 400 g of the oyster mushroom sample was packaged into 20-㎛ thick oriented polypropylene (OPP) film bags and stored at 4℃ for 21 days. Treatment with 30% of CO₂ treatment maintained the highest stipe firmness of the oyster mushrooms during storage. The stipe lightness (CIE L^⁎) was the highest at 14 and 21 days, while the stipe yellowness (CIE b^⁎) was the lowest at 2 and 7 days of storage. Therefore, we concluded that the 30% CO₂ treatment maintained the overall visual quality of the 'Gonji-7ho' oyster mushroom until 17 days of storage at 3℃. Our results suggest that the shelf life of 'Gonji-7ho' oyster mushroom could be extended by the postharvest application of 30% CO₂ for 3 hours during low temperature storage.
