Technical support of Window XP ended in March, 8, 2014, and it makes OS(Operating System) users fall in a state of confusion. Sudden decision making of OS upgrade and replacement is not a simple problem. Firms need to change the long term capacity plan in enterprise IS management, but they are pressed for time and cost to complete it. Individuals can not help selecting the second best plan, because the following OSs of Window XP are below expectations in performances, new PC sales as the opportunities of OS upgrade decrease, and the potential risk of OS technical support ending had not announced to OS users at the point of purchase. Microsoft as the OS vendors had not presented precaution or remedy for this confusion. Rather, Microsoft announced that the technical support of the other following OSs of Wndow XP such as Window 7 would ended in two years. This conflict between OS vendor and OS users could not happen in one time, but could recur in recent future. Although studies on the ways of OS user protection policy would be needed to escape from this conflict, few prior studies had conducted this issue. This study had challenge to cautiously investigate in such OS user's reactions as the confirmation with OS user's expectation in the point of purchase, three types of justice perception on the treatment of OS vendor, psychological contract violation, satisfaction and the other betrayal behavioral intention in the case of Window XP technical support ending. By adopting the justice perception on this research, and by empirically validating the impact on OS user's reactions, I could suggest the direction of establishing OS user protection policy of OS vendor. Based on the expectation-confirmation theory, the theory of justice, literatures about psychological contract violation, and studies about consumer betrayal behaviors in the perspective of Herzberg(1968)'s dual factor theory, I developed the research model and hypothesis. Expectation-confirmation theory explain that consumers had expectation on the performance of product in the point of sale, and they could satisfied with their purchase behaviors, when the expectation could have confirmed in the point of consumption. The theory of justice in social exchange argues that treatee could be willing to accept the treatment by treater when the three types of justice as distributive, procedural, and interactional justice could be established in treatment. Literatures about psychological contract violation in human behaviors explains that contracter in a side could have the implied contract (also called 'psychological contract') which the contracter in the other side would sincerely execute the contract, and that they are willing to do vengeance behaviors when their contract had unfairly been broken. When the psychological contract of consumers had been broken, consumers feel distrust with the vendors and are willing to decrease such beneficial attitude and behavior as satisfaction, loyalty and repurchase intention. At the same time, consumers feel betrayal and are willing to increase such retributive attitude and behavior as negative word-of-mouth, complain to the vendors, complain to the third parties for consumer protection. We conducted a scenario survey in order to validate our research model at March, 2013, when is the point of news released firstly and when is the point of one year before the acture Window XP technical support ending. We collected the valid data from 238 voluntary participants who are the OS users but had not yet exposed the news of Window OSs technical support ending schedule. The subject had been allocated into two groups and one of two groups had been exposed this news. The data had been analyzed by the MANOVA and PLS. MANOVA results indicate that the OSs technical support ending could significantly decrease all three types of justice perception. PLS results indicated that it could significantly increase psychological contract violation and that this increased psychological contract violation could significantly reduce the trust and increase the perceived betrayal. Then, it could significantly reduce satisfaction, loyalty, and repurchase intention, and it also could significantly increase negative word-of-month intention, complain to the vendor intention, and complain to the third party intention. All hypothesis had been significantly approved. Consequently, OS users feel that the OSs technical support ending is not natural value added service ending, but the violation of the core OS purchase contract, that it could be the posteriori prohibition of OS user's OS usage right, and that it could induce the psychological contract violation of OS users. This study would contributions to introduce the psychological contract violation of the OS users from the OSs technical support ending in IS field, to introduce three types of justice as the antecedents of psychological contract violation, and to empirically validate the impact of psychological contract violation both on the beneficial and retributive behavioral intentions of OS users. For practice, the results of this study could contribute to make more comprehensive OS user protection policy and consumer relationship management practices of OS vendor.

4차 산업 혁명의 시대가 가시화됨에 따라 새로운 기술을 활용한 혁신적인 비즈니스 모델들이 부상하고 있으며 스타트업은 파괴적인 혁신에 대응할 수 있는 민첩성과 새로운 기술에의 개방을 기반으로 기회의 풍요를 누리고 있다. 하지만 지속가능한 창업 생태계를 조성하는 데에 있어 가장 중요한 것은 창업 그 자체가 아닌, 연구-창업-투자-상장 및 대기업으로의 도약- 재투자로 이어지는 스타트업의 선순환을 구축하는 것이다. 이를 위해서는 창업이 행해진 거점 지역에 조성된 환경이 중요한데, 이러한 물질적, 비물질적 환경 요인들은 '창업생태계'라는 단어로 포괄되어 일컬어진다. 이러한 지역 중점의 창업생태계 연구는 해당 지역 내의 요소들 간의 상호 작용이 어떻게 새로운 벤처의 경쟁력을 높이는 데에 기여하고 이들을 지원하는 지역 환경을 만드는 지에 중점을 두고 진행된다. 본 연구는 창업환경 및 기업 환경 평가에 있어 아시아 국가 1,2위에 꾸준히 언급되는 싱가포르를 지역적 맥락으로 설정하여, 현지 창업생태계를 구성하는 요소들의 상호작용과 생태계 참여자들의 관계성에 대한 연구를 통해 한국의 창업생태계에의 시사점을 제공하고자 하였다. 이 과정에서 Isenberg(2010)가 제시한 창업생태계의 6가지 요소- 정책, 금융, 문화, 지원, 인적자원, 시장-가 창업생태계 요소와 관련된 선행연구를 잘 포괄한다는 점에서 창업생태계를 분석하는 데에 가장 적합한 프레임워크임을 대전제로 두고, 연구의 표적 지역인 싱가포르에 적합하도록 일부 요소들에 집중한 지역적 변용 모델을 구축하고자 하였다. 이에 싱가포르의 정치적 특성상 정책이라는 요소가 금융에 막대한 영향을 끼칠 수밖에 없다는 것, 스마트 네이션(Smart Nation) 정책의 기조가 기업가 정신과 관련된 대학 교육에 영향을 미치고 있다는 것, 그리고 싱가포르의 창업 인프라 내에서 형성되는 기업가 네트워크와 글로벌 연결성이 싱가포르 스타트업의 성과에 유의한 영향을 준다는 것을 고려하여 정책(Policy), 문화(Culture), 그리고 시장(Market)이라는 요소들을 더욱 주요하게 바라봐야 할 필요가 있다고 판단하였다. 또한, 창업생태계 요소들의 내부적인 상호작용을 파악하기 위해서는 창업생태계 참여자들을 대상으로 한 질적 연구가 필수적이므로 현지에 직접 방문하여 반구조화된 설문을 진행하였다. 이렇듯 본 연구는 싱가포르 창업생태계의 정책, 문화, 시장 요소에 집중한 질적 연구를 바탕으로 현지의 창업생태계 현황을 조사하였고, 한국과의 비교를 통해 스타트업 관련 규제, 대학의 역할, 창업 인프라 측면의 시사점을 제공하고자 하였다. 이는 향후 진행될 창업생태계 연구뿐만 아니라, 창업 인프라의 조성, 창업생태계 활성화 방안 마련, 그리고 대학의 창업교육 방향성 설정에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

Athletic performance is an important criteria used for the selection of superior horses. However, little is known about exercise-related epigenetic processes in the horse. DNA methylation is a key mechanism for regulating gene expression in response to environmental changes. We carried out comparative genomic analysis of genome-wide DNA methylation profiles in the blood samples of two different thoroughbred horses before and after exercise by methylated-DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeDIP-Seq). Differentially methylated regions (DMRs) in the pre-and post-exercise blood samples of superior and inferior horses were identified. Exercise altered the methylation patterns. After 30 min of exercise, 596 genes were hypomethy-lated and 715 genes were hypermethylated in the superior horse, whereas in the inferior horse, 868 genes were hypomethylated and 794 genes were hypermethylated. These genes were analyzed based on gene ontology (GO) annotations and the exercise-related pathway patterns in the two horses were compared. After exercise, gene regions related to cell division and adhesion were hypermethylated in the superior horse, whereas regions related to cell signaling and transport were hypermethylated in the inferior horse. Analysis of the distribution of methylated CpG islands confirmed the hypomethylation in the gene-body methylation regions after exercise. The methylation patterns of transposable elements also changed after exercise. Long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) showed abundance of DMRs. Collectively, our results serve as a basis to study exercise-based reprogramming of epigenetic traits.

우리나라는 세월호 사고 이후 해양안전에 대한 중요성이 증대되고 있다. 특히, 해양관련 종사자들에 국한하지 않고 대국민 해양안전의식 고취를 위해 학교 및 해양관련 단체에서 다양한 교육훈련 및 체험교육이 시행되고 있다. 선원의 안전교육은 SOLAS 규정에 의거 여객선은 10일, 상선은 매월 1회 소화 및 퇴선훈련을 실시하고 있다. 세월호 사고 이후 교육훈련의 효과를 증대시키기 위해 교육 정원을 기존 40명에서 20명으로 줄여 모든 교육생이 실제 교육훈련에 참여할 수 있도록 하고 있다. 현재의 교육훈련 형태는 교재에 의거한 이론교육 실시 후 실제 실습을 행하는 2단계 교육훈련이 실시되고 있다. 하지만 현재 인적, 물적 여건상 교육생들에게 많은 실습시간 부여 및 소수인원으로 구성된 실습교육이 곤란한 상황이나 시뮬레이션 기법이 도입될 경우 실습 전 숙달된 능력으로 실습교육의 빠른 진행으로 많은 실제 실습교육 수행이 가능할 것이다. 이러한 이유로 이 연구에서는 해상안전교육 중 소화훈련의 효율성을 증대시키기 위해 총 3단계로 구분한 교육훈련을 제안하고자 한다. 즉, 이론 교육 후 시뮬레이션 기법을 통한 개인별 임무 숙지 및 장비 사용법에 대한 이미지트레이닝교육을 추가하고자 한다. 이러한 시뮬레이션 기법을 사용할 경우 이론교육으로 얻어진 지식을 바탕으로 실제 훈련 전 가상으로 먼저 시행함으로서 실습교육에 빠른 적응이 가능하며 시뮬레이션 특성상 실제 훈련에서는 곤란한 긴급상황 대처훈련 및 다양한 시나리오에 의한 반복훈련이 가능하다. 이렇게 실습 전 숙달된 능력을 바탕으로 실습교육의 진행 속도를 증가시켜 많은 실제 실습교육을 수행할 수 있어 교육훈련 효율성이 증대될 것이다. 실제 교육생 설문조사에 의하면 개인별 실습시간 부족을 지적하였다. 이러한 이유로 가상현실 기법을 이용한 시뮬레이터 개발이 필요하여 이 연구에서는 개발방법에 대해 고찰하였다.

Objective: The purpose of this research was to assess the agreement between job physical risk factor analysis by ergonomists using ergonomic methods and physical examinations made by occupational physicians on the presence of musculoskeletal disorders of the upper extremities. Background: Ergonomics is the systematic application of principles concerned with the design of devices and working conditions for enhancing human capabilities and optimizing working and living conditions. Proper ergonomic design is necessary to prevent injuries and physical and emotional stress. The major types of ergonomic injuries and incidents are cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs), acute strains, sprains, and system failures. Minimization of use of excessive force and awkward postures can help to prevent such injuries Method: Initial data were collected as part of a larger study by the University of Utah Ergonomics and Safety program field data collection teams and medical data collection teams from the Rocky Mountain Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (RMCOEH). Subjects included 173 male and female workers, 83 at Beehive Clothing (a clothing plant), 74 at Autoliv (a plant making air bags for vehicles), and 16 at Deseret Meat (a meat-processing plant). Posture and effort levels were analyzed using a software program developed at the University of Utah (Utah Ergonomic Analysis Tool). The Ergonomic Epicondylitis Model (EEM) was developed to assess the risk of epicondylitis from observable job physical factors. The model considers five job risk factors: (1) intensity of exertion, (2) forearm rotation, (3) wrist posture, (4) elbow compression, and (5) speed of work. Qualitative ratings of these physical factors were determined during video analysis. Personal variables were also investigated to study their relationship with epicondylitis. Logistic regression models were used to determine the association between risk factors and symptoms of epicondyle pain. Results: Results of this study indicate that gender, smoking status, and BMI do have an effect on the risk of epicondylitis but there is not a statistically significant relationship between EEM and epicondylitis. Conclusion: This research studied the relationship between an Ergonomic Epicondylitis Model (EEM) and the occurrence of epicondylitis. The model was not predictive for epicondylitis. However, it is clear that epicondylitis was associated with some individual risk factors such as smoking status, gender, and BMI. Based on the results, future research may discover risk factors that seem to increase the risk of epicondylitis. Application: Although this research used a combination of questionnaire, ergonomic job analysis, and medical job analysis to specifically verify risk factors related to epicondylitis, there are limitations. This research did not have a very large sample size because only 173 subjects were available for this study. Also, it was conducted in only 3 facilities, a plant making air bags for vehicles, a meat-processing plant, and a clothing plant in Utah. If working conditions in other kinds of facilities are considered, results may improve. Therefore, future research should perform analysis with additional subjects in different kinds of facilities. Repetition and duration of a task were not considered as risk factors in this research. These two factors could be associated with epicondylitis so it could be important to include these factors in future research. Psychosocial data and workplace conditions (e.g., low temperature) were also noted during data collection, and could be used to further study the prevalence of epicondylitis. Univariate analysis methods could be used for each variable of EEM. This research was performed using multivariate analysis. Therefore, it was difficult to recognize the different effect of each variable. Basically, the difference between univariate and multivariate analysis is that univariate analysis deals with one predictor variable at a time, whereas multivariate analysis deals with multiple predictor variables combined in a predetermined manner. The univariate analysis could show how each variable is associated with epicondyle pain. This may allow more appropriate weighting factors to be determined and therefore improve the performance of the EEM.

The purpose of this study was to be of use for getting rid of job stress from dental technicians, by examining how much they were stressed out at work place as one of the professional medical personnels. The subjects in this study were 255 selected dental technicians who were working in the region of Taegu. The one-on-one interview was conducted from March 1 to 30, 2001, with structured questionnaire. The questionnaire sued in this study included 19 question items about the general characteristics and 29 items regarding job stress. The job stress was categorized into seven subareas based on earlier studies and considering the job situations of dental technicians: heavy workload, job conflicts, improper treatment, role and job knowledge, human relations, physical environment and personal matters. The job stress extent was measured on five-point Likert scale that is widely used in social science: one point for no stress, two for little stress, three for so-so, four for a little stress, and five for severe stress. Therefore, a higher point means a severer job stress. The reliability of the questionnaire turned out very good with Cronbach a = 0.9272. The findings of this study were as follows: 1. The general characteristics of the dental technicians investigated could be described as below: (1) By gender, 80.4% of the dental technicians were male, and 50.2%, the largest percentage, were in their 20s, followed by those in their 30s, those in their 40s, and those in their 50s in the order named. (2) The most common work place was dental technician shop(92.5%), followed by dental technology room in dental hospital or clinic and in general hospital in the order named. The primary duties were coating materials work(30.6%), followed by sculpture, grinding, partial and full denture and orthodontics in the order named. 2. The most larges (1) The most largest motivation to be a dental technician was its being a professional(33.7%), followed by the advice from others, their own aptitude, and good economic treatment in the order named. 3. Their job stress could be explained as below: (1) Their collective job stress average was 3.96$^{\circ}{\ae}$0.50 on the basis of 5 point, which showed that they were exposed to a fairly severe job stress. (2) By area, they were most stressed out from heavy workload (4.12), and they also were severely stressed from role and job knowledge(4.02) and personal matters(4.00). (3) By situation, they were most stressed when the disagreement of prosthesis that results from a specific error is unconditionally attributed to them(4.43). And they were also stressed a lot when their workload increases due to the rework(4.38), when a dentist asks something difficult for them to resolve(4.20), when heavy workload makes their working hours irregular and it's impossible to lead a personal life or have leisure time(4.16), and when they are o work for an excessively short time(4.16). This fact indicated that most of the dental technicians were exposed to a lot of stress in conjunction with job performance. 4. The main duties they took charge of didn't make any significant difference to their job stress, but yielded a significant difference to the extent of job stress in individual areas and the order of the most stressful one. Those who were engaged in grinding were most stressed from their own matters, whereas heavy workload was most stressful for those who were engaged in the other types of works. 5. As a result of seeing if their personal characteristics yielded any differences to job stress, the personal characteristics that made their job stress vary significantly were working hours, motivation of being a dental technician, job satisfaction and willingness to continue doing dental technology works. There was a tendency that longer working hours led to severer job stress, and those who chose to be a dental technician according to their own aptitude were less stressed than the others who became a dental technician because of economic reason or advices from others. And the people who were satisfied with their job were exposed to less job stress than the others who weren't, and those who had an intention to keep that job as much as possible were less stressed, compared to the others who hadn't.

Background: Cardiac arrest is one of the most critical diseases which can likely lead to severe cerebral disability or brain death when the cases can not recover their circulation within 10 minutes. Saving out-of-hospital cardiac arrest cases is a recent concern in Korea. Resuscitation has become an important multidisciplinary branch of medicine, demanding a spectrum of skills and attracting a plethora of specialities and organizations. The best survival can be achieved if all the following links have been optimized : rapid access, and early CPR, defibrillation and ACLS, Since the "Utstein Style" was advocated in 1991, many reports about out-of-hospital cardiac arrest have been published based on this guideline. These differences prevent valid inter-hospital and international comparisons. However, it is not known how effective resuscitation has become to the patients. In other words, there are no guidelines for reviewing, reporting, and conducting research on resuscitation in Korea. This dissertation aims to provide the basic data for a unified reporting guideline of resuscitation in Korea and evaluating the out-of-hospital factors associated with survival discharge of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Methods: As for this study, uses the collected data about Out-of-hospital cardiac arrests at 4 area, from January, 2005 to April. 2005. With a retrospective study, 174 cases were analyzed. The data was recorded based on the Out-of-Hospital Utstein Style. Results: Resuscitation was performed on 174 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest cases at the 4 area 14 patients(8.1%) recovered their spontaneous circulation. Overall, the ROSC of the out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients was 8.1%, which was poorer than that of western countries. Gender distribution was 50 females(28.7%) and 124 males(71.3%), approximately twice as many males as females. ROSC of witnessed arrests was found out to be 97.7%. The ratio of the witnessed arrest groups showed higher results than that of unwitnessed arrest groups in the above-examined cases. Cardiac etiology consisted of cardiac(33.5%), non-cardiac(45.7%), trauma(20.1%), and unknown(6.0%). Cardiac was the best performance. Initial rhythm showed Ventricular Tachycardia/pulseless Ventricular Fibrillation in 8 patients(6.0%), asystole in 100(75.2%) and unknown in 25(18.8%). The results of the Ventricular Tachycardia/pulseless Ventricular Fibrillation showed higher results than the others cases, The proportion of the cardiogenic cause was 33.5%, which was only half of western countries. Ventricular Tachycardia/pulseless Ventricular Fibrillation is relatively rare. These differences were due to the prevalent pattern of Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest as well as prematurity of the EMSS. Bystander CPR was practiced on 13 patients(7.52%). ROSC was shown in 46.2% cases. CPR by EMT was carried out on 167 cases(96.5%). ACLS by EMf was rare. From collapse, 4 cases(2.6%) arrived to ED within 6 minutes. 13 (8.6%) within 10 minutes, and 49(32.5%) over 31 minutes. The sooner the patients arrived, the greater the ratio of ROSC and discharged alive became, and the same with collapse time to ROSC. As the results of the logistic regression analysis, ROSC was found out to be highly influenced by the time of ED arrival from collapse and Ventricular Tachycardia/pulseless Ventricular Fibrillation. Therefore, the ratio of ROSC depends on not any single factor but various intervention factors. Conclusion: This dissertation presents the following suggestions and directions of the study hereafter. First, the first step for a chain of survival should be taken to activate EMSS early with a phone as soon as cardiac arrests are witnessed. Second, it is keenly needed that emergency medical technicians should be increased through emergency education for living. Third, it is necessary to establish the emergency transportation system. Fourth, most of the Koreans have little understanding of EMT and the present operation systems have many problems, which should be fundamentally changed. Fifth, it is required to have an active medical control over Out-of-hospital CPR, And proper psychological supports should be given not only to patients themselves and their family but also individuals who are engaged in emergency situation. Finally, through studies hereafter on nationwide, comprehensive, and standard forms, it is needed to examine into the biological figures of human body, causes and trends of cardiac arrests, and then, to enhance the survival rate of Out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. Korean guidelines for Cardiopulmonary resuscitation need to be made.

무인항공기는 조종사를 탑승하지 않고 지정된 임무를 수행할 수 있도록 제작한 비행체로서 독립된 체계 또는 우주 지상체계들과 연동시켜 운영 하는 기체이다. 이 같은 무인항공기의 경제발전의 가능성으로 인하여 정부는 무인항공기가 세계 항공기 시장에서 우리나라가 항공 선진국으로 진입할 수 있도록 적극 지원 중이다. 무인항공기는 항공산업 발전의 블루오션이지만 이에 따르는 법적 분쟁 요소도 만만치 않다. 소형으로 제작된 무인항공기는 고성능 카메라 및 센서에 기록되는 이착륙 및 운항노선 주변의 기록들을 피찰영자의 동의 없이 마음 것 촬영할 수 있는바 이에 대한 사생활 침해에 대한 우려가 있다. 또한 무인항공기가 민간상용화 된다면 무분별한 사용으로 사생활 침해 발생이 예상된다. 무인항공기로 인해 국민이 원치 않는 사생활 노출이 발생한다면 무인항공기 운영자들에게 손해배상책임이 발생할 수 있고, 이는 무인항공기산업 발전을 위해 고려되어야 하는 요소이다. 현재 무인항공기 산업을 주도하고 있는 미국에서도 무인항공기 사생활 침해 관련 정책은 개발 중이며, 효율적인 대책 마련을 준비하고 있다. 무인항공기에 관련한 법이 시행되고 있지 않기 때문에 무인항공기 사생활 침해에 따른 모든 법적 대책을 마련하는 것이 필요하다. 미국과 같이 무인항공기 사생활 보호를 도모하기 위해 무인항공기 사생활보호법(안)을 제시하였다. 현재 시행 중인 법이 많기 때문에 새로운 법안을 제시하는 것은 법적 안정성을 해할 수 있지만 국민들의 안전한 삶을 위해서 법을 제정하는 것은 피할 수 없는 일이다. 개인정보보호법이 시행 중이지만 무인항공기 관련 사생활 침해가 발생했을 때 무인항공기의 특수성에 대한 개인정보보호법을 적용하기기 녹록치 않을 것이기 때문에 미국 입법안과 개인정보보호법을 참고하여 무인항공기의 사생활 침해를 대비한 사생활보호법(안)을 제시하였다.
