  • There is a growing demand for agrometeorological information that end-users can use and not just interesting information. lo achieve this, each region/community needs to develop and provide localized climate and weather information for growers. Additionally, provide tools to help local users interpret climate forecasts issued by the National Weather Service in the country. Real time information should be provided for farmers, including some basic data. An ideal agrometeorological information system includes several components: an efficient data measuring and collection system; a modern telecommunication system; a standard data management processing and analysis system; and an advanced technological information dissemination system. While it is conventional wisdom that, Internet is and will play a major role in the delivery and dissemination of agrometeorological information, there are large gaps between the "information rich" and the "information poor" countries. Rural communities represent the "last mile of connectivity". For some time to come, TV broadcast, radio, phone, newspaper and fax will be used in many countries for communication. The differences in achieving this among countries arise from the human and financial resources available to implement this information and the methods of information dissemination. These differences must be considered in designing any information dissemination system. Experience shows that easy across to information more tailored to user needs would substantially increase use of climate information. Opportunities remain unexplored for applications of geographical information systems and remote sensing in agro meteorology.e sensing in agro meteorology.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze musical performances with the use of performance booking information from 2017 to 2019 which was obtained in Korea performing Arts Box Office Information system (KOPIS), and to make suggestions of Korean musical performances. Based on the data of KOPIS, relevant studies, internet based information, news articles, and magazines, musical performances were analyzed. In addition, the previous data of KOPIS and the data of the Broadway League were analyzed. The analysis results are as follows. Firstly, it is necessary to concentrate on Korean mid-sized theatre musical performances. Secondly, producers need to open their production costs invested in performances transparently. Thirdly, Off-Broadway system needs to be introduced after being modified in consideration of Korean situations. Thirdly, it is necessary to make long-run performances in order to achieve commercial success. Fifthly, it is necessary to make a bold attempt of theatre for performances just as in Broadway.

  • Many studies have tried to explain the privacy paradox but reported conflicting results; Some of them found connection between privacy concerns and information disclosure, while others did not. This study examines the role of interaction privacy controls (mainly friend lists and privacy settings) as a moderating variable that has the potential to affect the relationship in the SNS context. The reason for this is that most users use interactive privacy controls to create their own social environment before conducting SNS activities, so the relationship between privacy concerns and information disclosure may vary depending on the degree of use of interactive privacy controls. The study collected data using survey method, analyzed the moderating effect of use of interaction privacy controls using hierarchical multiple regression analysis, and as a result, found that effect. Therefore, the degree of use of interactive privacy controls may be an important contingent variable that needs to be considered in a study examining the privacy paradox in SNS context.

  • The relatively recent emphasis on a total allowable catch(TAC) system is placing new demands on fisheries management. Korean fisheries law has provided recently for implementation of the TAC based on fishery management system, in order to conserve and manage fisheries resources rationally in its exclusive economic zone(EEZ). In 1998, the TAC system was first applied to Korean fisheries. This TAC system is currently undergoing a second trial period, having been put under the system for 20012002 and continuous trial basis until the complete settlement of EEZ system agreement among three countries, Korea, China and Japan. The TAC system implementation needs are sophisticated information collection, analysis and modeling that will continue to increase and require the high management resources. In addition, data on social and economic impacts on TAC system is sometimes inadequate. The implementation of the TAC system provides a unique opportunity to examine the limits of management information and resources, and to solve the problems in Korean fisheries management system, These limits and problems are complicated by an inadequate biologically and economically information and insufficient management resources. Government and fisheries cooperatives must be cooperated in the management process in order to minimize its conflicts and maximize commitment to sustain fishery development. Recognition of the ineffectiveness and its potential consequences leads to the adoption of the cooperative-based co-management approach in implementation of TAC system. In 1998, the TAC system was first applied to Korean fisheries, where traditional fishery management has consisted mainly of technical measures and input controls. The QMS of TAC system has been implemented in the form of cooperative-based co-management framework. This QMS framework was chosen to overcome many difficulties and limits that a competitive TAC system would impose on Korean traditional fisheries management. The implementation of the QMS of TAC system provides a unique opportunity to examine the limits of management information and resources, and to solve the problems in Korean fisheries management system.

  • The purpose of this study is to scrutinize Internet sites which recently promote and sell Hanbok products online and to compare and analyze the formation and management conditions of those by types. One hundred thirty well-known Internet sites related to Hanbok products were studied on the formation and management conditions. The elements of Hanbok products, sales, promotion, and customer service were also discussed as details. In this study, those Internet sites were divided into six categories; private Hanbok designer sites, famous Hanbok brand sites, Hanbok specialized shopping mall sites, Hanbok rental sites, general and specialized Hanbok sites, and Hanbok information sites. The results of this study are as follows. First, the sites of private Hanbok designers and famous Hanbok brands are un for the purpose of promoting rather than selling its products. Second, the object of operating Hanbok specialized shopping mall sites is to sell its products via the Internet with practical Hanbok and kids Hanbok as the central items. These sites are fairly well organized. They show various items and provide information on descriptions, prices, and sizes of its products and offer customer service for sales. Third, custom-made Hanbok is also available alongside of Hanbok rentals on Hanbok rental sites. There are two kinds of rentals, door-to-door rental and online rental and customers normally rent traditional Hanbok for their needs. Fourth, products are sold in the order of kids Hanbok, practical Hanbok, Hanbok accessories, and traditional Hanbok on the general and specialized Hanbok sites. Finally, Hanbok information sites furnish various information on Hanbok and provide link services through making partnerships with other Hanbok cooperations.

  • We consider a hyper-redundant system that consists of many uniform units. The hyper-redundant system has many degrees of freedom and it can accomplish various tasks. Applysing the reinforcement learning to the hyper-redundant system is very attractive because it is possible to acquire various behaviors for various tasks automatically. In this paper we present a new reinforcement learning algorithm "Q-learning with propagation of motion". The algorithm is designed for the multi-agent systems that have strong connections. The proposed algorithm needs only one small Q-table even for a large scale system. So using the proposed algorithm, it is possible for the hyper-redundant system to learn the effective behavior. In this algorithm, only one leader agent learns the own behavior using its local information and the motion of the leader is propagated to another agents with time delay. The reward of the leader agent is given by using the whole system information. And the effective behavior of the leader is learned and the effective behavior of the system is acquired. We apply the proposed algorithm to a snake-like hyper-redundant robot. The necessary condition of the system to be Markov decision process is discussed. And the computer simulation of learning the locomotion is demonstrated. From the simulation results we find that the task of the locomotion of the robot to the desired point is learned and the winding motion is acquired. We can conclude that our proposed system and our analysis of the condition, that the system is Markov decision process, is valid.

  • Recently, Internet based Electronic Commerce is recognized as one of the alternatives for strengthening sales power of small and medium companies. However, small and medium manufacturers can't adjust properly to the new environment because they are in short of money, personnel, and technology. To cope with this problem, this paper deals with the development of virtual manufacturing agent to support sales agent. The sales activity of most of parts manufacturing companies is based on orders of buyers. The process of promotion, receipt and selection of orders of the parts manufacturing is closely coupled with the load status of the production lines. On deciding whether to accept an order or not, as well as negotiating with buyers, sales person needs information such as load and schedule of production lines, manufacturability of the order. Therefore, the functions of virtual manufacturing agents manufacturability analysis, process planning, and scheduling are key features in developing an agent of sales activity for the parts manufacturing business. While most of research on virtual manufacturing system so far is focused on the simulation of each product, this paper deals with the development of agent assisting internet-based product sales by supporting production information promptly. The pilot system of virtual manufacturing agent is implemented using KQML-based agent template and Java-based expert system shell for a small molding company.

  • In the paper, we divide the ATM cells generated by multimedia systems that want to transmit multimedia informations over B-ISDN into two categories:i)a media cell with a media information and ii) a synchronization cell with a synchronization information. We induce a media cell loss equation and a synchroni- zation cell loss equation based on probability distribution functions with on-off source as an input traffic model. In order to meet the requirements of real-time and integrity of multimedia informations, multimedia synchronization cells should provide the delay-sensitive and the loss-sensitive requirements. A traffic control mechanism needs to satisfy above requirements. According to the performance evaluation by a traffic control model simulation, we describe both spatial priority for minimizing the synchronization cell loss and temporal priority for reducing the synchronization cell delay must be applied simultaneously.

  • Queries entered in a search box are the results of users' activities to actively seek information. Therefore, search logs are important data which represent users' information needs. The purpose of this study is to examine if there is a relationship between the results of queries automatically classified and the categories of documents accessed. Search sessions were identified in 2009 NDSL(National Discovery for Science Leaders) log dataset of KISTI (Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information). Queries and items used were extracted by session. The queries were processed using an automatic classifier. The identified queries were then compared with the subject categories of items used. As a result, it was found that the average similarity was 58.8% for the automatic classification of the top 100 queries. Interestingly, this result is a numerical value lower than 76.8%, the result of search evaluated by experts. The reason for this difference explains that the terms used as queries are newly emerging as those of concern in other fields of research.
