Photovoltaic (PV) modules operate over a large range of conditions but manufacturer's information is not sufficient to determine their overall performance. Designers need a reliable tool to predict energy production from a photovoltaic module under all conditions in order to make a sound decision. The modeling method of photovoltaic (PV) module are useful to perform detailed analysis of PV system performance for changing meteorological conditions, verify actual rated power of PV system sizing and determine the optimal design of PV system and components. This paper indicates a modeling approach of PV module performance in terms of meteorological conditions and identifies validity of PV modules modeling by comparing measured with simulated value.

Therefore, this study mainly reviewed secondary data such as leading fast fashion companies' website, newspaper articles and Zara's case study which covers fast fashion issues. Fast fashion gets widely spreading in market, current investigation showed that domestic fashion companies have adopted fast fashion concept in early stage. This study tried to examine characteristics and strategies used by fast fashion businesses to provide domestic fashion industry with valuable information of production and marketing strategies. Suggestions through the result are as follows: 1. Fast fashion requires flexible managing systems such as SCM, QRS and JIT in order to promote efficient production and assortment management from the entire supply chain. 2. Domestic fast fashion companies should build up not only quality of good design but also reasonable price and strengthen marketing strategies in order to compete with abroad fashion companies 3. Fashion companies that succeed in satisfying consumer's desire for new trend show that it has been successful their strategy to make market area wider to the world not focusing on domestic market.

The Purpose of this study is to analyze the contribution of the total human capital formation to economic growth in Korea. In order to assess the contribution of the total human capital formation to economic growth, aggregate production functions are estimated using two ways of ordinary least squares and polynomial distributed lags based on 1955 - 1988 time series data in Korea. The total amount of investment in human capital is calculated by adding each amount of investment in formal education, vocational training, inter-provincial migration, and health in pecuniary terms. The findings of this study could be summarized as follows ; (1) If we enumerate the variables in good order according to the importance, we get the following ; namely, total number of labor force, inter-provincial migration, vocational training, health, physical capital, and formal education. (2) The contribution of the human capital to economic growth is much more larger than that of physical capital. In particular, it appears that inter-provincial migration and vocational training make a great contribution to economic growth. (3) It appears that investment in formal education has a continuous effect for fifteen years and maximum effect is observed approximately eight years later. In the case of vocational training, the effect of investment lasts for about 12-14 years and its effect on economic growth reaches maximum with the passage of seven to eight years after initial investment. (4) Investment in vocational training contributes more in the long run compared with investment in formal education. The effect of investment in formal education lasts longer than that of vocational training, while the effect of investment in vocational training is considerably larger in the short run compared with the investment in formal education.

This study provides insight into current social media influences and purchasing power of the young generation in that the size of both of these demographic groups will impact the apparel companies and retail market for the predictable future Denim apparel companies are aware of the discretionary spending power of the Y and Z Generations. The characteristics of current teens are so similar to college-age individuals in that they have grown up with digital technology and they prefer to communicate via social networking sites. Retailers have utilized these social media platforms in order to capture the attention of the generations. Traditionally marketing campaigns have differentiated between teens and the college-age population. However, the teens actually have larger spending power and more discretionary income. A survey consisted of 32 questions pertaining to Internet media influences, influence of people, and decision factors on decisionmaking related to purchasing selection. A random sampling of 163 females responded to a set of questionnaires. Teens, like college students desire to make their own decisions when they select and purchase denim jeans. Overall 40% of them wanted to make their own decisions when purchasing their jeans, however, a significant number are influenced by their friend's opinions (34%) and the opinions of family members (15%). However, celebrities (10%) had the least influence on their decisions. Teens, like colleges students make decisions based on the same decision factors: fit (63%), cost (23%), brand (10%) and color (2%). The most important factor in determining preference was "fit".

The Precast Concrete(PC) method was developed for a large production of a structure in Europe. Afterwards, this PC method has been applied to a structure and an outside Coating of buildings extensively. The outside Coating of the building applied this PC method is a method to put tiles or stones to base concrete. And there is a method to use paints for, so the expression of various patterns is possible. The Multi-Layer Coating is one of the methods to use paints. This Multi-Layer Coating method can show various designs of external appearance with Foam when it is made with the PC panel. Also, the paint film of the PC panel enables a splendid appearance, and a protective function of concrete is possible, too. Therefore, it makes good durability of the PC. Besides, maintenance is easy to manage because it is free from pollution when it uses metallic materials, stones, or any other materials. You might have no trouble in applying the Multi-Layer Coating method in order to save a merit of an outside Coating on the PC panel. However, the Multi-Layer Coating method used as a current outside Coating method has pollution and bad working environment because Oil Epoxy Resins have toxicity and flammability. Therefore, a lot of warnings are required for coating work in order to have appropriate quality because working hours are short, and production efficiency is low too. These reasons make the cost of construction of the Multi-Layer Coating method increase. And employers or designers may have problems in selecting this Multi-Layer Coating method. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to get activation of the Multi-Layer Coating method by offering improvement measures about the problems of the existing Multi-Layer Coating method.

The process for bioethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass was studied through process simulation using PRO/II. Process integration was conducted with concentrated acid pretreatment, hydrolysis process, SMB (simulated moving bed chromatography) process and pervaporation process. Energy consumption could be minimized by the heat recovery process. In addition, material and energy balance were calculated based on the results from the simulation and literature data. A net production yield of 4.07 kg-biomass and energy consumption value of 3,572 kcal per 1 kg ethanol were calculated, which is indicating that 26% yield increase and 30% energy saving compared to the bioethanol production process with dilute-acid hydrolysis (SRI report). In order to make it possible, sugar conversion yield of cellulose and hemi-cellulose is to be reached up to 90% and fermentation of xylose needs to be developed. In order to reduce the energy consumption up to 30%, the concentration of acid solution after being separated by 5MB should exceed 20%. If acid/sugar separation by SMB process is to be practical, the bioethanol process designed in this study can be commercially feasible.

This study intended to investigate the pediatric drug dispensing practice at hospital pharmacies in order to provide the children with proper pharmaceutical care services. According to the study results, the most significant problem in dispensing pediatric drugs was that only a few pediatric drugs were supplied by the pharmaceutical companies in Korea. It was found that pediatric drugs like rifampicin, phenobarbital and theophylline should be produced in the form of syrup or powder, for the children to swallow drugs with ease. The study results also showed that only $35.5\%$ of the hospital pharmacists reviewed all the prescriptions issued by doctors. In most cases $(65.3\%)$ drug information was only provided when the patients asked to the pharmacists. The lack of working time and clinical information on the patients were found as major barriers. Thus in order to provide better pharmaceutical care services for the children, not only the pharmaceutical companies should pay attention to the production of pediatric drugs, but pharmacists should make every efforts on playing patient-oriented roles.
