This study is aimed to find out and define how the muscular-skeletal pain of the Aged, according to their residential circumstance, sex and age, can affect the subjective health index and how all these are related and associated with. For the period of June 1 to July 31, 2001, in order to study and define how the muscular-skeletal pain are related to the subjective health index of the Aged, we have conducted an enquete through a direct interview with 693 persons over age sixty-five (65) in Daejon and in other adjacent areas, divided into three different residential types "The Aged living at home", "The Aged living at welfare facilities" and "The Aged living alone". The study concludes followings : 1. Generally, muscular-skeletal pain and the subjective health index of the Aged, are a lot influenced by and related to their residential circumstance, their sex and their age. 2. With regard to the muscular-skeletal pain of the Aged by their sex, it was analyzed that, on an average, the female-Aged gains 3.0 point and the female-Aged suffers from this pain more severely. In analyzing this pain by their residential type, it was found that, on an average, the 3.0 point goes for "the Aged living alone", which explains the Aged living alone is having the most serious pain. 3. With regard to the subjective heath index of the all Aged participated in this research, the analysis indicates 8.8 point and this is considered as a general standard (7-10 point). In analyzing this index by their sex, the female-Aged gains 8.6 point only and it explains a lot of female-Aged consider they are not really healthy. In analyzing this index by their residential type, "the Aged living at welfare facilities" and "the Aged living alone" gain the comparatively lower point, - respectively 8.4 point for the Aged living at welfare facilities and 8.8 point for the Aged living alone. The Aged of these two residential types express they are obviously in a bad condition of health, which makes us think a lot.

Korea selected to introduce high-speed railway system from advanced countries in order to accumulate railway technologies and develop exiting domestic logistics system. After many twists and turns, we adopted to introduce France's high-speed railway called 'TGV'. Despite many difficulties along with trials and errors, it is expected that Korean high-speed railway will be brilliantly launched in April 2004, although it has been commissioned for multi-discipline tests. It is forecast that the opening of high-speed railway will bring us the epoch-making development of logistics system. However, what if there are really some problems in the operation of high-speed railway? We cannot consider and highlight only the positive aspects of our own high-speed railway. In terms of many challenging aspects we would face in the future, there would be some matters we must consider and point out in this opportunity. In this regard, the direction for developing high-speed railway stations requires the harmony between profitability and public benefits, which must involve compatibility with other traffice systems and practical policies to secure competitive edges.

Designers have to consider voice of customer, process capability, manufacturing standards & condition, manufacturing method, characteristics of products to decide tolerances. Especially, in case of position of hole and pin, designers have to consider process capability to decide tolerances. The traditional position tolerances used in a drawing are theoretical values which are allocated to position under the worst case assembling condition that both hole and pin are the maximum material condition(MMC). However, When the process capability is high, more exact product size can be produced under stable manufacturing condition. larger clearance of hole and pin can be allocated. In this point of view, manufacturer could increase the yield by allocating larger position tolerance than theoretical position tolerance of hole and pin considering process capability.

In this paper, we consider an optimal routing problem when point-to-point and point-to-multipoint connection traffics are offered in an ATM network. We propose a mathematical model for cost-minimizing configuration of a logical network for a given ATM-based BISDN. Our model is essentially identical to the previous one proposed by Kim(Kim, 1996) which finds a virtual-path configuration where the relevant gains obtainable from the ATM technology such as the statistical multiplexing gain and the switching/control cost-saving gain are optimally traded-off. Unlike the Kim's model, however, ours explicitly considers the VP's QoS(Quality of Service) for more efficient utilization of bandwidth. The problem is a large-scale, nonlinear, and mixed-integer problem. The proposed algorithm is based on the local linearization of equivalent-capacity functions and the relaxation of link capacity constraints. As a result, the problem can be decomposed into moderate-sized shortest path problems, Steiner arborescence problems, and LPs. This fact renders our algorithm a lot faster than the previous nonlinear programming algorithm while the solution quality is maintained, hence application to large-scale network problems.

In creative society, fluency in technology means the ability to reformulate knowledge, to express oneself creatively and appropriately, to produce and generate information in computer environment. Fluency in technology is essential for mathematics education with a point of constructivist view. In this paper, we study the meaning of fluency in technology, related to mathematics education. For this purpose, we suggest Papert's constructionism as a theoretical background and consider the principle of 'Learning through design' for fluency in technology. And we consider some principles for designing a mathematical microworld and implement a mathematical microworld for fluency in technology. With this microworld, we consider the after-school-program where students have participated a design activity.

The final purpose of this study is to develop the synthetic and logical analytical tool for analyzing spatial organization of housing. For this purpose, this study made the starting-point by proposing some alternatives to improve one of the quantitative analytical tools of spatial organizations, Space Syntax. These propositions were intended to consider human behavior as well as physical structure in analyzing spatial organization. The propositions were as follow; 1) Classify the private outdoor space in detail, 2) Consider that the spatial organization which visitors cognize can differ from which residents do, and 3) Use distinctive spatial depth according to the states of connection.

The designed hybrid generation system (HGS) not only consider the voltage condition of grid connection point but also do reactive power support according to the transmission system operator's directions. The PCS operation plan in HGS should be supported by precise transferred quantity expectation about reactive power because the system has large physical areas and also be interconnected with grid through long transmission system. Therefore, the realistic measuring process about transferred reactive power quantity by utilizing HGS is required to consider additional compensation plan. In this paper, an reactive power transferred capability of HGS with expected parameter is analyzed, and imposed to the simulation process that is performed on EMTDC environment. Basically, grid information and system characteristics were utilized with Jeju island in Korea, and the performance analysis is carried out based on the composed layout in ongoing project.

Flow over a protruding surface is investigated using numerical simulation. We consider flow between two parallel plates with a cube mounted on one side of the channel. As the flow approaches the cube, the adverse pressure gradient produces three-dimensional boundary-layer separation, resulting In the formation of horseshoe vortices. The objective of our study is to clarify both the steady and the unsteady characteristics of the vortex system. As the Reynolds number increases, the structure of the vortices near the cube becomes complex and the number of vortices increases. The distribution of skin friction on the cube-mounted wall reflects the effect of the horseshoe vortices. All these results are consistent with the experimental findings currently available.

We consider fixed-point iterations constructed by simple transforming from a quadratic matrix equation to equivalent fixed-point equations and assume that the iterations are well-defined at some solutions. In that case, we suggest real valued functions. These functions provide radii at the solution, which guarantee the local convergence and the uniqueness of the solutions. Moreover, these radii obtained by simple calculations of some constants. We get the constants by arbitrary matrix norm for coefficient matrices and solution. In numerical experiments, the examples show that the functions give suitable boundaries which guarantee the local convergence and the uniqueness of the solutions for the given equations.
