The purpose of this study was to provide useful information for establishing efficient marketing direction by investigating the performance (satisfaction) and importance for the quality of Korean traditional commercial beverages. The subjects were 320 participants (130 males and 190 females) in Daegu and Kyungpook. The importance and satisfaction score of Korean traditional commercial beverages were measured on a five-point Likert scale. The results are summarized as follows. The overall satisfaction score on Korean traditional commercial beverages was 2.96 points. The beverages with the highest satisfaction scores were 'green tea' (3.48 points) 'shickhae' (3.35 points) and 'rice tea' (3.34 points) whereas 'ppongip tea' (2.58 points) 'gugija tea' (2.63 points) and 'gukhwa tea' (2.64 points) scored lowly. From the analysis of the difference between importance and performance of Korean traditional commercial beverages, importance (3.11 points) was rated much higher than performance (3.66 points). In the IPA result, it was important to continuously maintain 'taste', 'hygiene', 'freshness', 'period of circulation', 'wrapping condition' etc. Some items such as 'nutrition', 'safety', 'health', and 'ingredient' did not need intensive care and operation.

In this paper, we propose an improved single view metrology (SVM) algorithm to accurately measure the height of objects. In order to accurately measure the size of objects, vanishing points have to be correctly estimated. There are two methods to estimate vanishing points. First, the user has to choose some horizontal and vertical lines in real world. Then, the user finds the cross points of the lines. Second, the user can obtain the vanishing points by using software algorithm such as [6-9]. In the former method, the user has to choose the lines manually to obtain accurate vanishing points. On the other hand, the latter method uses software algorithm to automatically obtain vanishing points. In this paper, we apply image resizing and edge sharpening as a pre-processing to the algorithm in order to improve performance. The estimated vanishing points algorithm create four vanishing point candidates: two points are horizontal candidates and the other two points are vertical candidates. However, a common image has two horizontal vanishing points and one vertical vanishing point. Thus, we eliminate a vertical vanishing point candidate by analyzing the histogram of angle distribution of vanishing point candidates. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms conventional methods, [6] and [7]. In addition, the algorithm obtains similar performance with manual method with less than 5% of the measurement error.

The following study was taken in the Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon, Kangwon, and Chungcheong areas to analyze the performance levels of safety management by characteristics of school foodservice. The following results were obtained from a survey conducted on 2,271 middle and high school dietitians in 808 schools. Out of the 808 schools surveyed, 513 schools (63.5%) were self-operated and 295 schools (36.5%) were managed by a contract. Regarding the performance level of the hygiene duties, contract-managed schools were rated as 4.02 points while self-operated schools were rated relatively higher (4.16 points). The self-operated schools had an average score of 3.60 points for the TQM-based HACCP system, and the areas that scored lower than the average were strategies, human resources, data and analysis. The average score of the contract-managed schools was 3.42 points, and such areas as leadership, human resources, data and analysis, and customer satisfactory level scored below the average. For the analysis of CCP performance level, the contract-managed schools scored 4.28 points while self-operated schools scored 4.34 points. Overall, the hygiene duties, CCP performance level, and TQM-based HACCP system performance of the contracted schools were lower than those of the self-operated schools. Therefore, it is advised that the contract-managed schools consider new measures to strengthen their performance level for improved safety of school foodservice.

The purpose of this study is to provide useful information for establishing desirable table manner culture by investigating the perception, practice of traditional basic table manner. The subjects were consisted of 1,261 participants(618 males and 643 females) in Daegu and Kyungpook. The recognition, practice of traditional basic table manner were measured on the five-point Likert scale. The results were summarized as follows: The overall recognition score on ordinary table manner was 3.74 points, and of methods and kinds of dinner services was 2.99 points. The education score on table manner of parents for sons and daughters was 3.66 points, and the necessity score of table manner was 3.92 points. The scolding score of adults for table manner was 2.79 points, and cooking score of side dishes for adult was 3.25 points. In result of analyzing difference between perception and performance of traditional table manner, perception is much higher than performance. Respondents consider that the most perceptional and performant traditional table manner item is 'eating foods inside mouth by not seeing and rushing out'. Meanwhile, 'eating and taking some foods from a main dish' was the lowest perception and performance. The total recognition score on traditional table manner was 77.78 points, and the total practice score on traditional table manner was 71.72 points.

The article reports data on, and numerical modelling of, beams exhibiting points of inflection and subjected to sequential loading. Both tests and analysis point to inadequacies in current codes of practice. An alternative design methodology, which is strongly associated with the notion that contraflexure points should be designed as "internal supports", is shown to produce superior performance even though it requires significantly less secondary reinforcement than that advocated by codes.

This paper presents a novel method for predicting the failure probability of structural or mechanical systems subjected to random loads and material properties involving multiple design points. The method involves Multicut High Dimensional Model Representation (Multicut-HDMR) technique in conjunction with moving least squares to approximate the original implicit limit state/performance function with an explicit function. Depending on the order chosen sometimes truncated Cut-HDMR expansion is unable to approximate the original implicit limit state/performance function when multiple design points exist on the limit state/performance function or when the problem domain is large. Multicut-HDMR addresses this problem by using multiple reference points to improve accuracy of the approximate limit state/performance function. Numerical examples show the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed approach in estimating the failure probability.

Purpose: This study was conducted to provide basic data necessary to develop a program to improve infection control by examining nurses' perception of accreditation and by identifying its relationship with awareness and performance of infection control. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed using questionnaires. Data were collected from 210 nurses who were working at one hospital between May 14 and May 19, 2015. Data were analyzed using SPAW. Results: The mean score for nurses' perception of accreditation was 3.10 points out of 5 points. Score for awareness of infection control was $4.63{\pm}0.39$ points and for performance of infection control, $4.39{\pm}0.39$ points. There were significant positive correlation among perception of accreditation, awareness of infection control, and performance of infection control. In the regression analysis, performance of infection control was influenced by awareness of infection control which accounted for 42.6% of the variance. It also showed additional improvement of 1.4% of the variance by when perception of accreditation was added. Conclusion: The result of this study show that nurses' perception of accreditation is relatively positive and that performance of infection control is highly enhanced according to nurses' positive recognition of accreditation as well as attaching importance to accreditation.
