Purpose: In the context of fresh food e-commerce, this study investigates the intermediary mechanisms between last-mile logistics service quality (LMLSQ) and customer loyalty. Utilizing the Quality-Value-Loyalty chain as a framework, it focuses on how perceived functional and emotional value mediate this relationship. Research design, data and methodology: Data was gathered through questionnaires from Chinese customers who purchased fresh products from fresh food e-commerce platforms which provide self-delivery services. Partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to examine the proposed hypotheses after confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) revealed the validity and reliability of the data. Results: The findings reveal that condition quality and personnel contact quality positively influence both functional and emotional value, which, in turn, significantly impact customer loyalty. Timeliness quality, however, does not significantly affect functional or emotional value, indicating its limited impact on customer loyalty. Conclusions: The study confirms that improving condition quality and personnel contact quality significantly boosts customer loyalty by enhancing perceived functional and emotional value. The findings highlight the importance for fresh food e-commerce platforms to offer high-quality, reliable, and emotionally satisfying LMLSQ. The results offer practical insights for e-commerce platforms to focus on specific service quality dimensions to foster customer loyalty and contribute to the theoretical understanding of the quality-value-loyalty framework.

최근 의료 분야에서의 IoT 기술에 대한 관심이 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 기존 IoT 기술은 주로 만성 질환 환자 관리나 또는 일반인의 신진 대사를 관리하는데 초점이 맞추어져 있으나, 점차 병원에서 집중 관리가 필요한 환자를 대상으로 사용 범위가 확장되고 있다. 따라서 이를 위한 IoT 기술은 보다 정확하고 빠른 정보 전달 및 보안이 요구 된다. 본 논문에서는 의료 기관에서의 IoT 서비스 시나리오를 정의하고, 실제 아두이노 보드, 상용센서, 그리고 웹 기반 IoT 플랫폼을 이용하여 의료 IoT 서비스 플랫폼을 구축했다. 상기 테스트 베드에서의 실험을 통해 제안한 서비스 플랫폼이 의료 정보 전달 지연 및 정확도 측면에서 고려될 수 있음을 보여준다.

센서 네트워크의 많은 응용분야에서 센서 노드가 감지하는 데이터는 긴급성에 따라 크게 일반 데이터와 긴급 데이터로 분류할 수 있다. 주기적인 상황 모니터링과 같은 일반 데이터는 손실이나 지연을 어느 정도 허용할 수 있는 반면에, 화재 경보와 같은 긴급 데이터는 손실 없이 실시간적으로 전달이 이루어져야 한다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 데이터의 특성에 따라, 긴급 데이터의 전달 신뢰도를 높이면서 일반 데이터 전달의 에너지 효율을 고려한, 무선 센서 네트워크를 위한 에너지 효율적인 데이터 인지 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다 제안한 방안은 크게 두 가지 아이디어로 되어 있다. 첫째, 긴급 데이터에 대한 네트워크 생존율과 신뢰도를 향상시키기 위해, 각 센서 노드는 자신의 배터리 잔여량이 임계치 이하로 떨어지면 긴급 데이터만 전달하게 된다. 둘째, 긴급 데이터에 대한 전달 신뢰도를 높이고, 일반 데이터 전달의 에너지 소모를 줄이기 위해 데이터 종류에 따라 차별화된 전달 방법을 사용한다. 규칙적으로 발생하는 일반 데이터는 에너지 효율성을 증가시키기 위해 단일 경로 기반의 데이터 전달 방안을 사용하며, 긴급 데이터는 높은 신뢰성을 보장하기 위해 방향성 플러딩 방법을 사용해 싱크로 전달한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안 방안이 긴급 데이터 전송에 있어 높은 신뢰성을 보장하면서, 일반 데이터 전달의 에너지 소모를 줄여 네트워크 생존율을 크게 증가시킬 수 있음을 보였다.

Cognitive Radio (CR) has been recently proposed as a promising technology to remedy the problems of spectrum scarcity and spectrum underutilization by enabling unlicensed users to opportunistically utilize temporally unused licensed spectrums in a cautious manner. In Cognitive Radio Ad Hoc Networks (CRAHNs), data routing is one of the most challenging tasks since the channel availability and node mobility are unpredictable. Moreover, the network performance is severely degraded due to large numbers of path failures. In this paper, we propose the Fault-Tolerant Cognitive Ad-hoc Routing Protocol (FTCARP) to provide fast and efficient route recovery in presence of path failures during data delivery in CRAHNs. The protocol exploits the joint path and spectrum diversity to offer reliable communication and efficient spectrum usage over the networks. In the proposed protocol, a backup path is utilized in case a failure occurs over a primary transmission route. Different cause of a path failure will be handled by different route recovery mechanism. The protocol performance is compared with that of the Dual Diversity Cognitive Ad-hoc Routing Protocol (D2CARP). The simulation results obviously prove that FTCARP outperforms D2CARP in terms of throughput, packet loss, end-to-end delay and jitter in the high path-failure rate CRAHNs.

Greedy forwarding is a key mechanism of geographic routing using distance as a metric. As greedy forwarding only uses 1-hop neighbor node information, it minimizes routing overhead and is highly scalable. In existing greedy forwarding schemes, a node selects a next forwarding node based only on the distance. However, the signal strength in a realistic environment reduces exponentially depending on the distance, so that by considering only the distance, it may cause a large number of data packet retransmissions. To solve this problem, many greedy forwarding schemes have been proposed. However, they do not consider the unreliable and asymmetric characteristics of wireless links and thus cause the waste of limited battery resources due to the data packet retransmissions. In this paper, we propose a reliable and energy-efficient opportunistic greedy forwarding scheme for unreliable and asymmetric links (GF-UAL). In order to further improve the energy efficiency, GF-UAL opportunistically uses the path that is expected to have the minimum energy consumption among the 1-hop and 2-hop forwarding paths within the radio range. Comprehensive simulation results show that the packet delivery rate and energy efficiency increase up to about 17% and 18%, respectively, compared with the ones in PRR${\times}$Distance greedy forwarding.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a scale to assess immigrant women's needs for pregnancy and postpartum adaptation and to test the reliability and validity of the scale. Methods: To construct scale items, critical issues and difficulties associated with pregnancy and postpartum adaptation of immigrant women were identified and categorized through a literature review. Fifty-two scale items were constructed, and data for validity and reliability testing was collected with a questionnaire survey from 367 immigrant women. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and reliability coefficients. Results: The final measurement scale to assess immigrant women's pregnancy and postpartum adaptation consisted of 48 items and 7 factors (adaptation to daily activity during pregnancy, cross-cultural understanding and personal respect, understanding of the process of pregnancy and delivery, baby rearing and family support, physical and emotional adaptation after childbirth, nutrition during pregnancy, and sexual life adaptation). The seven factors accounted for 64.26% of the variance, and Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ was .96. Conclusion: The scale developed by this study is a reliable and valid instrument and can be used to assess needs of pregnancy and postpartum adaptation and can be utilized in providing nursing interventions for immigrant women.

Objectives: We took breast milk samples and analyzed them using HPLC and LC/MS/MS, to evaluate the effects of taking Saenghwa-tang during breastfeeding on breast milk. Methods: The study participants were 20 lactating women who admitted in Korean medical postpartum care center. Breast milks were collected from paticipants who have been administrated Saenghwa-tang for more than 3 days. We used HPLC and LC/MS/MS for the determinations of amygdalin, liquiritins, 6-gingerol, decursin and decursinol angelate in Saenghwa-tang. Results: 1. Participants' $Mean{\pm}S.D$ (standard deviation) of age is $31.05{\pm}1.96$, and 15 participants had normal delivery and 5 participants had cesarean delivery. 12 participants were primipara and 8 participants were multipara. $Mean{\pm}S.D$ of lactating date is $9.4{\pm}0.94$. 2. Using HPLC, we learned LOQ level peak that matches the peak retention time of standard components of Saenghwa-tang was not detected from 20 breast milk samples. 3. Using LC/MS/MS, decursin of Angelicae Gigantis Radix was detected from HMSP 02, HMSP 04, HMSP 06, HMSP 11, and the each concentrations are 16, 2, 64, 11 ppb. Liquiritin of Glycyrrhizae Radix was not detected from HMSP 13~HMSP 18. Conclusions: Data obtained by this approach shows that this method is reliable and suitable for determining the safety of taking Saenghwa-tang during breastfeeding.

e-마켓플레이스는 구매자들이 보다 신뢰할 수 있는 판매자와 거래할 수 있도록 평판 시스템(Reputation system)을 구축하여 예비 소비자들에게 판매자의 평판을 제공한다. 판매자의 평판은 소비자의 평점을 기반으로 산출되는데 이 때 소비자의 평가 요소로는 판매자의 행동에 대한 평가와 상품에 대한 평가가 있다. 기존의 평판 계산 방안들은 구매자의 평점이 두 가지의 평가가 혼합된 점수라는 것을 인지하지 못한 채로 판매자의 평판을 산출한다. 본 논문에서는 소비자 평점을 판매자 점수와 상품 점수로 분리한 후 오직 '판매자의 점수'만을 이용하는 평판 계산 방안을 제안한다. 제안하는 방안은 판매자의 점수만을 이용하여 판매자의 능력에 대한 평판만을 제공하는 방안으로 예비 소비자들이 빠른 배송과 친절한 서비스를 제공하는 판매자를 선택할 수 있도록 돕는다. 실험에서는 실제 e-마켓 플레이스의 현실성을 반영한 시뮬레이션 방안을 제안한다. 생성된 시뮬레이션 데이터를 기반으로 진행하는 실험을 통해 제안하는 방법의 우수성을 입증한다.
