Collaborative product commerce (CPC) is a newly emerging technology to support inter-enterprise collaboration through the product life-cycle. From the IT point of view, CPC is software technology to integrate product, process and resources of different enterprises using Web technologies. In this paper, we introduce a CPC framework for integrating product information across enterprises, which being developed as a part of the CPC project by ETRI. The product metadata represented by XML schema, which is compatible with ISO STEP PDM Schema standard, is presented to semantically and schematically integrate distributed product information. The web services technologies are discussed to support the interoperability of application systems related to the product development, such as CAD and PDM, where most of these applications run in a distributed environment. Finally, we implement the frame-work to integrate distributed product information.

The use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) is increasing in Norway. A growing number of nurses choose to offer CAM, and the purpose of the study presented in this article was to examine the reasons for their choices. Fieldwork including interviews with 20 nurses offering CAM was conducted. The results showed that the nurses in general are not satisfied with the public health service. They had four main reasons for their choice to offer CAM: 1. A desire to perform holistic nursing. 2. A tendency to value self-realization. 3. A wish to experience meaning in their work and develop a stronger professional identity. 4. A freedom to mix care and cure. The results of this study are also discussed in view of medicalization.

There is a consensus among researchers about the fact that women should be familiar with their breasts but there is a lot of argument as to how to make them aware of what is normal for them. For over decades breast self examination (BSE) was advocated for the same but as an outcome of work conducted by researchers in various countires a controversy has been raised in the West. In a country like India, where breast cancer screening is not popular and limited resources are available we should question what would be the best strategy to make women familiar with their breasts to facilitate best use of BSE.

A new automatic generation control (AGC) signal transmission format will be adopted in the new energy management system (EMS) that KEPCO is planning to install for managing and operating the power system efficiently under the deregulation environment. Therefore, it is necessary for the power plants to make the AGC processing logic fit the new AGC signal flow format. In this work, we compare the new signal transmission scheme with the conventional one in view of its effect to the signal flow in the distributed control systems (DCS) that ale equipped in power plants to handle AGC operation. Then we propose a basic logic configuration for DCS that can be used with the new signal format. In the design of the configuration, some practical issues that should be discussed for the proper operation of the plants are considered.

In this work, linear and mass attenuation coefficients, effective atomic number and electron density, mean free paths, and half value layer and $10^{th}$ value layer values of barium-bismuth-borosilicate glasses were obtained for 662 keV, 1,173 keV, and 1,332 keV gamma ray energies using MCNP-4C code and XCOM program. Then obtained data were compared with available experimental data. The MCNP-4C code and XCOM program results were in good agreement with the experimental data. Barium-bismuth-borosilicate glasses have good gamma ray shielding properties from the shielding point of view.

This paper suggests a new approach to IT project management based on a regular project meeting results to consider the recent project environment. The greater part of recent IT projects are related to e-business transformation. Transforming to e-business is a new problem very different from those they have been worked, in several point of views. Under e-business era, therefore any IT project is being implemented in more complex, dynamic and uncertain environment than traditional. That is, project leaders must consider more factors to control projects including resources, quality, risks, and technologies, and human resources. The project organizations and software corporations thus need to develop and establish new concepts or methodologies to manage e-business projects. In this point of view, an entropy model in this study is introduced for estimating and managing the uncertainty in project control using multi-attributes of project meeting. This paper proposes a new frame work based on entropy model using project meeting results to consider eIT project environment with a small pilot study.

By analyzing a nation-wide survey, this article examines research related norms and values of 684 scientists in 16 universities and 7 government supported research institutes. The survey shows that Korean scientific community tends to reject communality and disinterestedness while it accepts universalism as a norm. Organized skepticism is received a lukewarm support. In contrast, Korean scientific community tends to perceive the intellectual property and secrecy as legitimate and believe that scientists should consider the applicability of scientific research outcome and its social impacts when they choose research topics. When other variables are controlled for, the more basic research a scientist conducts the scientist is more likely to support communality and reject secrecy. The younger scientists are less likely to accept disinterestedness and the claim that the scientists should keep distance from social issues than the older. Scientists who work in the government-supported research institutes are more likely to view secrecy for more than 6 months as legitimate and reject the claim that science should not be affected by society than university scientists. The implications of these findings are discussed.

This paper reviews technology for power quality differentiated supply in power system. Since price and power quality has been single goods in the light of customer-side view point but hereafter it is essential for power market to introduce multiple goods which is composed of differentiated combination between them. This paper should like to work out strategy for power quality differentiated supply in domestic power system by comparison characteristics of differentiated background and its relevant various theory.

With the contact angle of phase dropping epoxy resin on the inorganic filler(glass plate) surface treated with air plasma, we have studied about the interfacial wettability between epoxy resin and glass plate as a simple model of glass fiber reinforced composite materials. The contact angle on the inorganic filler surface varied with surface treatment conditions. The contact angle significantly depends on plasma treating time and environment temperature in the oven. From the view point of plasma treatment condition in this work, when discharge conditions were pressure 200mtorr, voltage 800V, magnetic flux density 8OGauss, optimum treatment time were proved as 3,4 and 5 minutes for the environment of >$80^{\circ}C$, >$100^{\circ}C$ and >$120^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The development if separation technology is an important research subject as is clear from its role in the Japanese government's research abd development program for basic technology for the next generation (1981~1990). Japan is poor not only in mineral resources but also in energy resources and if a sudden change occurs in oil producing facility or an accident occurs in a nuclear power plant, then energy policy must undergo changes and economic foundations may collapse. Japan has already experienced this. Although, oil prices are stable at present and Japan can import oil at low cost due to the yen appreciation, Japan needs to promote development work for any new energy crisis that may come in the future. This has been the motive for gas separation membrane development in Japan.
