In this paper, we analyze the concept of network convergence and characteristics of Broadband convergence Network(BcN) from the service perspective where convergence would appear. We suggest the evolutionary 3 stage steps of BcN as an ideal network strategy when considering present network situation. We also propose the features of several representative services that are expected to emerge out of network convergence.

High-performance concrete, besides aggregate, cement, and water, incorporates supplementary cementitious materials, such as fly ash and blast furnace slag, and chemical admixture, such as superplasticizer. Hence, it is a highly complex material and modeling its behavior represents a difficult task. This paper presents an evolutionary system for the prediction of high performance concrete strength. The proposed framework blends a recently developed version of genetic programming with a local search method. The resulting system enables us to build a model that produces an accurate estimation of the considered parameter. Experimental results show the suitability of the proposed system for the prediction of concrete strength. The proposed method produces a lower error with respect to the state-of-the art technique. The paper provides two contributions: from the point of view of the high performance concrete strength prediction, a system able to outperform existing state-of-the-art techniques is defined; from the machine learning perspective, this case study shows that including a local searcher in the geometric semantic genetic programming system can speed up the convergence of the search process.

Granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI), encoded by the waxy gene, is responsible for the accumulation of amylose during the development of starch granules in rice endosperm. Despite many findings on waxy alleles, the genetic diversity and evolutionary studies are still not fully explored regarding their functional effects. Comprehensive evolutionary analyses were performed to investigate the genetic variations and relatedness of the GBSSI gene in 374 rice accessions composed of 54 wild accessions and 320 bred cultivars (temperate japonica, tropical japonica, indica, aus, aromatic, and admixture). GBSS1 coding regions were analyzed from a VCF file retrieved from whole-genome resequencing data, and eight haplotypes were identified in the GBSSI coding region of 320 bred cultivars. The genetic diversity indices revealed the most negative Tajima's D value in the tropical-japonica, followed by the aus and temperate-japonica, while Tajima's D values in indica were positive, indicating balancing selection. Diversity reduction was noticed in temperate japonica (0.0003) compared to the highest one (wild, 0.0044), illustrating their higher genetic differentiation by F_ST-value (0.604). The most positive Tajima's D value was observed in indica (0.5224), indicating the GBSSI gene domestication signature under balancing selection. In contrast, the lowest and negative Tajima's D value was found in tropical japonica (-0.5291), which might have experienced a positive selection and purified due to the excess of rare alleles. Overall, our study offers insights into haplotype diversity and evolutionary fingerprints of GBSSI. It ako provides genomic information to increase the starch content of cooked rice.

Child is a being and provides the genetic continuity of parents and society, and therefore the fitness of these children for survival, growth and development towards reproduction, is of significance to parents and society. The aim of health care for high-risk children is not only to minimize or eliminate health problems, but also to optimize their fitness. Considering that the health care of children is influenced by available resources of parents and society, and sociocultural values and paradigms in a given environment of evolutionary adaptedness (EEA), child health care professionals need to understand factors affecting the optimal fitness of children with risks. This paper introduces a new integrated theory for health care in high-risk children, entitled, Health for Optimal Fitness of High-Risk Children. Five main components were identified with associate concepts or midrange theories affecting heath for optimal fitness of high-risk children; EEA, optimal fitness, health problems, investment resources, and anthropological values. It may provide an integrated perspective on health of high-risk children in both the proximately biomedical approach and ultimately evolutionary approach as optimizing their fitness. Further study is needed to develop substantial statements between components with existential examples.

The notion of smart cities, presently, is a highly popular topic in urban policy circles. This concept is adopted by many cities across the world-with an aim of increasing urban smartness in various ways and areas. Productivity, innovation, liveability, wellbeing, accessibility, sustainability, governance, planning, and citizen participation are among these areas. Despite good policy intentions, smart city initiatives in practice had only limited impact in delivering the desired urban outcomes. This paper aims to investigate the smart city phenomenon and its planning practice approaches from an evolutionary perspective. The study places smart city plans and strategies of a number of cities across the globe under the microscope. The findings reveal that current smart city efforts are not adequate to combat the challenges of the Anthropocene epoch-that is already upon us. This paper concludes with a consolidated definition of smart and sustainable cities and considerations for moving towards Post-Anthropocentric urbanism-that is truly smart and sustainable urbanism-to avoid an imminent urban ecocide.

In recent times, the volume of cross-border e-commerce has witnessed an upward trend and has been accompanied by increased disputes, with cross-border e-commerce being characterized mainly by low value and large volume issues. For this reason, Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) was formed to carry out dispute resolutions in cross-border e-commerce. A virtual multi-door ODR platform for small value, cross-border disputes in e-commerce is then proposed in this paper. For a couple of decades, researchers have tried to employ Artificial Intelligence (AI) to Law. However, it turns out that they were faced with a couple of obstacles to integrate AI to Law since it is highly difficult to program AI to process the common sense of a human being. For example, AI cannot assimilate the affective side of a human being, and it is problematic to integrate a human being's common sense into the AI system. Considering this situation, this study puts forward an ODR model for cross-border e-commerce in the evolutionary perspective.

The authors investigated the artistic characteristics of autistic savant artists, hypotheses on the proximate and ultimate causes of their emergence, recent psychological and other studies about them, and psychological and neuroaesthetic studies about non-savant autistic individuals. The artistic features of autistic savant artists were significantly similar to those of outsider artists. Furthermore, the authors investigated the explanatory power of the paradoxical functional facilitation theory, the superior visual perception hypothesis, the "Hmmmmm" hypothesis, and the Neanderthal theory of autism regarding the emergence of autistic savant artists. In addition, we investigated whether an increase in savant characteristics was related to a decrease in the ability for social communication. The authors suggested that in studies on the aesthetic experience of non-savant autistic individuals, their aesthetic experience ability is never lower than that of neurotypical individuals and that some non-savant autistic individuals may potentially have artistic talent. Finally, the authors reviewed the effectiveness of the "autism savant spectrum syndromic disorder" proposed by some researchers. More scientific and systematic studies on autistic savant artists from a multidisciplinary perspective are warranted.

빠르게 변화하는 경쟁 환경에서 ICT 기업은 다른 산업 기술과의 결합을 통해 경쟁 우위를 얻으려 하고 다른 산업의 기업 또한 ICT와의 결합을 통해 혁신을 얻고자 한다. ICT 공급자에게 이전에는 완전히 다른 산업이 일단 ICT가 적용되면 그들의 시장으로 볼 수 있는 융합 현상이 나타나는 것이다. 본 연구는 ICT 기업이 기술 융합을 위해서 어떠한 노력을 해야 하는지에 대한 연구문제를 가지고 진화론적 관점에서 ICT 공급자의 행동과 기술 융합과 관계에 관심을 갖는다. 실증적으로 ICT 융합이 가장 활발하게 진행되는 자동차 분야를 대상으로 나스닥 등록 기업의 특허활동에 따른 10년간의 기술 변화를 관찰하였다. ICT 공급자에 의한 기술적 시도의 혁신성은 기술 융합의 가능성을 높이지만 그 다양성은 그렇지 못하다는 결론을 얻음으로써 급변하는 환경에 대응하기 위해서 ICT 기업은 다양한 대안을 마련하는 것 보다는 집중이 필요하다는 시사점을 전달한다.

인류는 백만 년 전부터 줄곧 서서 직립을 향하여 진화 되어왔다. 그러나 산업사회에 접어들며, 불과 몇 십 년 전부터 앉아서 일하는 시간이 비정상적으로 많아짐에 따라 인류의 신체는 좋지 않은 영향을 받았다. 선행된 의학 연구들을 살펴보면 장시간 앉아 일하는 환경이 그 동안 우리가 알고 있었던 성인병의 원인에 상당 부분 악영향을 끼쳤다고 밝혀왔다. 인류는 움직이는 방향으로 진화되어왔다. 그렇기에 현대 사회처럼 한 공간에서 앉거나 서서 움직임 없이 장기간 있는 것은 인체에 여러 부작용을 가져온다. 이러한 배경을 반영하여 본 연구에서는 스탠딩 책상을 이용한 기존의 서서 일하는 업무환경에서 진화생물학적 관점으로 한 발 더 나아가 걷는 환경에서의 업무에 대해 생각하게 되었다. 또한 스마트워크의 한 종류이자 스마트폰을 현장에서 직접 사용하는 모바일오피스 환경의 확장을 기대하며 스마트폰으로 작업을 처리하는 실험을 실행하고자 한다. 이 연구는 스마트워크의 한 종류인 모바일오피스 환경이 구축되고 정착하는데 기여를 할 수 있다. 또한 스마트폰을 이용하는 업무 뿐 아니라 돌아다니면서 일을 하는 업무환경 역시 개발 될 수 있다. 더 나아가 기업의 업무 환경, 학생들의 공부환경의 패러다임이 바뀔 수 있을 것이다.
