  • A pepper harvester using a pair of counter rotating helically wound cylinders as a pepper removal mechanism has been developed. Pepper harvesting by machines under the customary cultivation practice was expected to lower land productivity, that most farmers were concerned about. As one way to compensate for loss in land productivity by machine harvest, experts on pepper cultivation suggested change of both varieties and plant density per area. From the view of machine design, their suggestion implied that distance between rows should be narrower and height of the pepper removal mechanism could be shorter. Experiments to improve perfect pepper recovery ratio and to reduce size of the pepper removal mechanism was accomplished. In order to be a economically feasible harvester, minimum pepper recovery ratio was required to be greater or equal to 80%. The research goal was achieved by both reducing the diameter of the wire-helices from 30 cm to 18 cm and increasing rotational speed of the wire-helices up to 425 rpm. The best perfect pepper recovery ratio was 82.3%. Validity of experiment design and interpretation on statistical analysis were discussed. To understand the pepper removal mechanism properly, a pepper removal theory based physics was judged to be necessary.

  • This study aimed to investigate publication productivity in various medical specialties in the top 10 countries with the highest number of published journal articles, considering the distinction between prolific and prestigious journals. For this study, we selected 10 specialties from the Scientific Journal Rankings (SJR) and used journals listed in both SJR and PubMed. Bibliographic details of these journals' articles published from 2017 to 2019 were downloaded from PubMed. The results showed that various aspects of medical publication output were influenced by country characteristics such as specialty, journal type, population size, wealth, and healthcare expenditure. China showed the greatest variability in terms of specialty, as its publications in Oncology (ONCGY) were exceptionally high compared with the specialties of other countries. China's publications in ONCGY exceeded even those of the United States in ONCGY. Furthermore, the western countries, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States in particular published more articles in prestigious journals than the other top 10 countries, where the East Asian countries published more articles in prolific journals than in prestigious journals.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 변화저항에 따라 달라지는 스마트워크 투자와 직무 성과를 실증적으로 검정하는 것이다. 연구에서는 우선적으로 스마트워크 투자와 생산성 성과 사이의 의사소통 매개 효과를 살펴볼 것이다. 그 다음 스마트워크 투자를 저하시키는 조직 변화저항을 수준별로 분류하여 투자와 생산성의 차이를 확인할 것이다. 스마트워크란 조직 구성원들에게 시간과 장소의 유연성을 제공하고, 업무 생산성을 개선시키는 근무방식을 말한다. 스마트워크의 도입은 조직 내부에 새로운 조직문화, 조직제도, 신기술을 채택하는 것을 의미한다. 조직 의사소통과 협업이 변화된 형태이기 때문에 기존 조직문화와 제도, 기술의 관행에 대한 변화를 요구할 수밖에 없다. 이에 본 연구 방법은 스마트워크 투자에 따른 의사소통의 매개적 효과, 조직저항 수준별로 조절 효과를 검정할 수 있도록 구조방정식 모형을 채택하였다. 구조방정식 모형을 통해서 스마트워크 투자가 의사소통과 조직 생산성에 긍정적 영향을 제공하는지 확인하고자 한다. 또한, 조직 변화 저항을 군집 분석하여 수준별로 구분하여 스마트워크 생산성에 미치는 효과 차이를 확인하였다. 연구결과, 스마트워크 투자로서 조직IT, 조직제도, 조직문화는 의사소통에 중요한 영향자로서 나타났으며, 개인적 성과에 직접적 영향력을 제공한다고 나타났다. 또한, 조직IT와 조직제도, 문화는 의사소통을 매개로 하여 개인 생산성과 조직 생산성에 간접적 영향력도 가진다고 나타났다. 하지만 조직IT와 조직제도의 독립변수는 조직 생산성을 높여주는 직접적 영향력은 없다고 나타났다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 조직IT와 조직제도는 의사소통을 매개로 하면 조직 생산성을 높이는 영향력을 가진다고 간접효과가 나타났다. 다음으로 조직저항의 세 집단의 생산성을 확인한 결과, 집단 간에 스마트워크 생산성 성과의 차이가 있다고 나타났다. 여기서 조직 저항이 낮은 집단은 다른 집단에 비해서 높은 생산성 성과의 영향력을 가진다고 나타났다. 집단별 분석 결과의 함의로는, 스마트워크의 긍정적 성과를 위해서는 우선적으로 조직제도를 개정하고, 다음으로 조직 문화를 형성시키고, 마지막으로 기술 도입을 고도화시키는 것이 중요하다고 나타났다. 본 연구의 이론적 함의로는 스마트워크의 배경을 기반으로 사회기술시스템 이론과 조직제도, 문화이론, 조직 변화저항이론, 직무 생산성 이론을 설명하였고, 기존 사회과학 이론들을 한층 더 구체화시키는 기반을 넓혔다. 실천적 함의로는 스마트워크로 발생될 수 있는 변화저항을 수준별로 관리한다는 것이다. 스마트워크를 급진적으로 투자하기보다는 단계별로 투자하여 생산성 성과를 높여야 한다는 것을 설명하였다. 향후 연구에는 스마트워크 투자를 국내 기업과 공공기관으로 구분하고 조직문화, 제도, 기술, 성과에 대한 차이를 비교 분석할 필요가 있겠다.

  • The purpose of this study is to suggest successful strategies through which the effect of the information system of a hospital can be forecasted at the nursing department. In order to set up successful strategies, in the first place, both the methods of CSF(Critical Success Factor: Rockart, 1979) and ULD(User-Led Development) method and the method suggested by the Korea Productivity Center were applied. In order to measure the improvement of nursing productivity, the Dissonance theory was used. The data were collected from 100 employees serving at the clinic department of Kwangju Patriots' and Veterans' Hospital from July 4 to July 25, 1998 with reference to all 222 cases, for sampling work; then the part of the efficiency of the treatment or management of hospital business - simplification of the process of the treatment of hospital business and reduction of the time of the treatment of hospital business were measured; and in order to forecast organizational behavior, 100 cases of organization behavior were analysed, based on the well structured, questionnaires. In order to forecast the user's organizational behavior, a tool(Ronald. 1988; Stephen, 1982: Senn, 1992: Olsen, 1980: Anderson, 1988: Kim. 1992: Cho. 1994) to measure the extent or degree of the user's recognition or understanding whose reliability coefficient is 0.63 was used: and regarding the items expected by the users concerning the convenience of the system, a tool created by Bernadett, Szajna and Richard W. Scamell(1993) whose reliability coefficient is 0.88 was used. And finally, those data were analysed, utilizing the statistical package of SPSS/PC 6.0. successful strategies are suggested as follows: 1. In order that the Kwangju Patriots' and Veterans' Hospital's purpose can be successful through its strategic, information system, the quality of its services should be elevated. and for elevating the quality of medical services, elevation of the quality of medical expertism or specialty is an important factor in determining such quality. 2. In order to make the hospital information system to be successful, the hospital's top manager should participate in the effort making it successful with helping hands of the members or personnel of the hospital. 3. In order to make users participate in the hospital information system, it is prerequisite that all nurses in a hospital should voluntarily participate in the system 4. In order to reduce the expense, the time in coping with business per duty should be reduced by 10${\sim}$33.23%. The time of the direct nursing care which added value is relatively high should be elongated in order to elevate the quality of hospital services. 5. Since the introduction and spread of the hospital information system are influenced by the duration in the experience of computer use, the user of the hospital information system should have a plan to receive well-planned computer education. Finally it is suggested that the forecast of long-term productivity through a review of the user's expectation of the system should be inspected and tested through continuous studies of its effectiveness.

  • In semiconductor manufacturing field, all equipments have various sensors to diagnosis the situations of processes. For increasing the accuracy of diagnosis, hundreds of sensors are emplyed. As sensors provide millions of data, the process diagnosis from them are unrealistic. Besides, in some cases, the results from some data which have same conditions are different. We want to find some information, such as data and knowledge, from the data. Nowadays, fault detection and classification (FDC) has been concerned to increasing the yield. Certain faults and no-faults can be classified by various FDC tools. The uncertainty in semiconductor manufacturing, no-faulty in faulty and faulty in no-faulty, has been caused the productivity to decreased. From the uncertainty, the rough set theory is a viable approach for extraction of meaningful knowledge and making predictions. Reduction of data sets, finding hidden data patterns, and generation of decision rules contrasts other approaches such as regression analysis and neural networks. In this research, a RGB sensor was used for diagnosis plasma instead of optical emission spectroscopy (OES). RGB data has just three variables (red, green and blue), while OES data has thousands of variables. RGB data, however, is difficult to analyze by human's eyes. Same outputs in a variable show different outcomes. In other words, RGB data includes the uncertainty. In this research, by rough set theory, decision rules were generated. In decision rules, we could find the hidden data patterns from the uncertainty. RGB sensor can diagnosis the change of plasma condition as over 90% accuracy by the rough set theory. Although we only present a preliminary research result, in this paper, we will continuously develop uncertainty problem solving data mining algorithm for the application of semiconductor process diagnosis.

  • 글로벌 경제의 성장 패러다임이 창조경제 체제로 변화하고 있다. 이러한 변화가 가져올 결과를 제대로 이해하기 위해서 나아가 바람직한 미래의 창조경제를 위해서, 그리고 ICT의 역할은 무엇인지에 대해서 살펴보고자 한다. 창조경제는 경제성장론에 바탕을 두고 있다. 신경제 체제에서 ICT 부문에 대한 투자를 통해 인플레이션 없는 지속적 성장 또는 주어진 인플레이션 하에서 보다 높은 수준의 지속 가능한 성장을 달성할 수 있게 된다. 그러나 미국에서와 달리 국내에서는 신경제 현상이 유의하게 나타나지 않았다. 신경제보다는 요소투입에 의존하는 성장 패턴을 보였기 때문이다. ICT는 신경제(디지털 경제)로의 이행을 위한 필수적 요소이긴 하나 그 자체로 생산성 및 성장을 전부 설명하는 것은 아니라고 평가된다. 관건은 어떻게 정보통신 및 기술발전을 타 산업에 확산시키는지의 여부에 달려 있다. ICT는 그 자체가 창조산업이거나 창조경제가 아니라 enabler로서 제대로 역할을 할 수 있어야 한다. 창조경제는 신경제론의 연장선에 볼 수도 있다. 자본과 노동력 요소 투자 이외에 문화적 자산과 인적 자원(Human resource)을 투여하여 가치를 생산해 내는 경제를 의미한다. 그러나 투입요소의 변화에 국한되면, 진정한 의미의 창조경제를 기대하기 어렵다. 그러한 의미에서 창조경제는 정권 5년 정책이슈가 아니라 미래지향적이어야 하며 단순히 투입요소에 창의력이 추가되는 차원을 넘어 through-put이라고 할 시스템의 변화가 수반되어야 한다. 여기에 ICT의 역할이 있다.

  • 최근의 정보기술은 인간이 할 수 있는 거의 모든 영역에서 적용될 만큼 눈부신 발전을 거듭하고 있지만, 직업 상실의 위협과 같은 사건들로 인하여 개인에게는 기술로 인한 지침, 압박감과 같은 테크노스트레스를 유발시키기도 한다. 이러한 테크노스트레스는 정보기술이 중심이 될 미래 사회에서 사용자의 성과나 생산성에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 중요한 요인이기 때문에 그 관계성에 대한 연구는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 정보기술 사용자에게 발생되는 테크노스트레스가 성과에 대한 직, 간접적인 영향을 밝히고자 한다. 이를 위해서 테크노스트레스의 발생절차에 대하여 문헌검토를 통해 구체화 하였으며, 사용자의 반응에 대한 유발과 개인적 결과인 성과에 미치는 영향을 실증분석하였다. 따라서 테크노 스트레스와 혁신저항 이론을 통합한 연구모형을 개발하였으며, 317명의 설문조사 응답 자료를 분석하였다. PLS 구조방정식과 매개회귀분석을 통한 분석결과 개인의 테크노스트레스 유발시키는 정보기술의 특성에는 급변성, 연결성, 신뢰성, 복잡성이 영향요인이었으며, 테크노스트레스는 혁신저항을 통해서 간접적으로만 최종 사용자의 성과에 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구는 그동안 정보시스템 분야에서 제기되었던 테크노스트레스와 성과의 인과관계에 대하여 새로운 관점을 제시하여, 학문적이고 실무적인 시사점을 제공할 것이다.

  • Information technology (IT) outsourcing, the use of a third-party vendor to provide IT services, started in the late 1980s and early 1990s in Korea, and has increased rapidly since 2000. Recently, firms have increased their efforts to capture greater value from IT outsourcing. To date, there have been a large number of studies on IT outsourcing. Most prior studies on IT outsourcing have focused on outsourcing practices and decisions, and little attention has been paid to objectively measuring the value of IT outsourcing. In addition, studies that examined the performance of IT outsourcing have mainly relied on anecdotal evidence or practitioners' perceptions. Our study examines the contribution of IT outsourcing to economic growth in Korean industries over the 1990 to 2007 period, using a production function framework and a panel data set for 54 industries constructed from input-output tables, fixed-capital formation tables, and employment tables. Based on the framework and estimation procedures that Han, Kauffman and Nault (2010) used to examine the economic impact of IT outsourcing in U.S. industries, we evaluate the impact of IT outsourcing on output and productivity in Korean industries. Because IT outsourcing started to grow at a significantly more rapid pace in 2000, we compare the impact of IT outsourcing in pre- and post-2000 periods. Our industry-level panel data cover a large proportion of Korean economy-54 out of 58 Korean industries. This allows us greater opportunity to assess the impacts of IT outsourcing on objective performance measures, such as output and productivity. Using IT outsourcing and IT capital as our primary independent variables, we employ an extended Cobb-Douglas production function in which both variables are treated as factor inputs. We also derive and estimate a labor productivity equation to assess the impact of our IT variables on labor productivity. We use data from seven years (1990, 1993, 2000, 2003, 2005, 2006, and 2007) for which both input-output tables and fixed-capital formation tables are available. Combining the input-output tables and fixed-capital formation tables resulted in 54 industries. IT outsourcing is measured as the value of computer-related services purchased by each industry in a given year. All the variables have been converted to 2000 Korean Won using GDP deflators. To calculate labor hours, we use the average work hours for each sector provided by the OECD. To effectively control for heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation present in our dataset, we use the feasible generalized least squares (FGLS) procedures. Because the AR1 process may be industry-specific (i.e., panel-specific), we consider both common AR1 and panel-specific AR1 (PSAR1) processes in our estimations. We also include year dummies to control for year-specific effects common across industries, and sector dummies (as defined in the GDP deflator) to control for time-invariant sector-specific effects. Based on the full sample of 378 observations, we find that a 1% increase in IT outsourcing is associated with a 0.012~0.014% increase in gross output and a 1% increase in IT capital is associated with a 0.024~0.027% increase in gross output. To compare the contribution of IT outsourcing relative to that of IT capital, we examined gross marginal product (GMP). The average GMP of IT outsourcing was 6.423, which is substantially greater than that of IT capital at 2.093. This indicates that on average if an industry invests KRW 1 millon, it can increase its output by KRW 6.4 million. In terms of the contribution to labor productivity, we find that a 1% increase in IT outsourcing is associated with a 0.009~0.01% increase in labor productivity while a 1% increase in IT capital is associated with a 0.024~0.025% increase in labor productivity. Overall, our results indicate that IT outsourcing has made positive and economically meaningful contributions to output and productivity in Korean industries over the 1990 to 2007 period. The average GMP of IT outsourcing we report about Korean industries is 1.44 times greater than that in U.S. industries reported in Han et al. (2010). Further, we find that the contribution of IT outsourcing has been significantly greater in the 2000~2007 period during which the growth of IT outsourcing accelerated. Our study provides implication for policymakers and managers. First, our results suggest that Korean industries can capture further benefits by increasing investments in IT outsourcing. Second, our analyses and results provide a basis for managers to assess the impact of investments in IT outsourcing and IT capital in an objective and quantitative manner. Building on our study, future research should examine the impact of IT outsourcing at a more detailed industry level and the firm level.

  • This study attempted to introduce Fei-Ranis's agricultural development theory and discuss its problem for the rural development of less developed world. Fei-Ranis systematized the development process of Western European economy on the ground of dualism. They divided the process into 4 stages by the concept of 'mode of operation'. Paticularly, they consider agrarian mercantilism as take-off stage and its development were achieved by the increase of trade margin and labor productivity. Especially, they thought that only agricultural revolution through the diffusion of internal exchange economy and construction of tree-star system can accomplish favorable transition to industrial capitalism. In order to promote this agricultural development, less developed world must abolish short-run agricultural policy and propel 'learning by the contact' strategy through 'tree-star system' and 'parellel development.' In reality, it was problematic that the contemporary less developed world is trying, in the course of a few decades, to imitate Western European experience with development over the last four centuries. But Fei-Ranis ignored qualitative aspects of agricultural development by tree-star system and also it is criticized that they considered agricultural development process of less developed world follows only that of Western European classical process.
