This study intends to identify the effects of user attitude, user education & training on the information systems implementation performance. In order to obtain data, survey questionnaires were distributed to the users of 'D' company, the major findings can be summarized as follows. First, it's suggested from the analyses that user attitude and user education & training independently have statistically significant effects on information systems implementation performance. Second, it's revealed that even though the interaction effects by both user attitude and user education & training have positive effects on the level of usage, but have no statistically significant effects on satisfaction level. Based on these results, it's recommended to convert user attitude favorably toward user environment and to increase the level of user education & training, in order to promote information systems implementation performance. Especially, differentiated user education & training are highly recommended.

Main purpose of this study is to provide some managerial suggestions for local small and medium-sized hospitals that are in poorer business environment than large hospitals such as university hospitals, in managing the manpower efficiently, improving business performance and enhancing competitiveness, by empirically investigating the relationship among competency, organizational structure and business performance. Major results are as follows: First, regression analysis for the effects of hospital competency on nonfinancial performance revealed that marketing competency, intangible resource competency and financial resource competency, in that order of importance, had significant influence on nonfinancial performance. Second, regarding the analysis of the effects of hospital competency on financial performance, financial resource competency, marketing competency and intangible resource competency, in that order of importance, significantly affected financial performance. Third, as for the moderating effect, significant result was obtained in an interaction between hospital competency and organizational structure. Financial resource competency had a positive significant impact on nonfinancial performance. However, it had negative significant impact on it by interactive effect with organizational structure.

This study aimed to measure consumer information competency, which indicates consumers' general ability to search and utilize information. The model of this study was constructed in order to identify how consumer information competency influences the efficiency and the effectiveness of external information search. The model was verified with related prior knowledge as a moderator variable in order to understand holistic consumer information search activity. The result of the study is as follows. First, the concept of consumer information competency was constructed with four sub-abilities: define, search, extract, and synthesis & use. The ability of define was the highest, as opposed to the ability of extract, which was the lowest. Second, consumer information competency was lower for women as well as for low family income. The sub-abilities of search and synthesis & use were lower for aging consumers. Third, consumer information competency has positive effects on information search efficiency and effectiveness. Moreover, the efficiency influences the effectiveness positively. Fourth, prior knowledge moderates the effect of consumer information competency to the efficiency. Only for consumers with high knowledge the efficiency has the effect of mediating between consumer information competency and the effectiveness.

The human resources of an enterprise is very important in order to survive in these days of business environment. This study investigates the influence of working conditions on organizational effectiveness. Job satisfaction and immersion has been regarded as a key conception of organizational effectiveness. The focus of this study is to investigate the effects of R&D employee's working conditions on organizational effectiveness. The results of this study show that organizational effectiveness are greatly influenced by working conditions. According to the result, First, an enterprise must make a favorable working conditions for R&D employees, the enterprise will provide R&D employees with support for collegiality and good relationship with superiors. Second, the systems of organization are significant in organizational effectiveness. Therefore, the enterprise gives the enterprise's vision and autonomic authority of business to R&D employees in order to improve organizational effectiveness. Finally, the enterprise must admit failure and compensates R&D employees for creative ideas.

This paper presents a multistage in-flight alignment (MIFA) method for a strapdown inertial navigation system (SDINS) suitable for moving vehicles with no initial attitude references. A SDINS mounted on a moving vehicle frequently loses attitude information for many reasons, and it makes solving navigation equations impossible because the true motion is coupled with an undefined vehicle attitude. To determine the attitude in such a situation, MIFA consists of three stages: a coarse horizontal attitude, coarse heading, and fine attitude with adaptive Kalman navigation filter (AKNF) in order. In the coarse horizontal alignment, the pitch and roll are coarsely estimated from the second order damping loop with an input of acceleration differences between the SDINS and GPS. To enhance estimation accuracy, the acceleration is smoothed by a scalar filter to reflect the true dynamics of a vehicle, and the effects of the scalar filter gains are analyzed. Then the coarse heading is determined from the GPS tracking angle and yaw increment of the SDINS. The attitude from these two stages is fed back to the initial values of the AKNF. To reduce the estimated bias errors of inertial sensors, special emphasis is given to the timing synchronization effects for the measurement of AKNF. With various real flight tests using an UH60 helicopter, it is proved that MIFA provides a dramatic position error improvement compared to the conventional gyro compass alignment.

The optimization of Omija-pyun as a traditional dessert, with the most European taste and year round availability, was studied with regard to its texture. The response surface methodology was used to determine the optimal composition of Omija-pyun as a European style dessert. The texture, including the springiness, gumminess, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, hardness and chewiness, was measured using TPA parameters (TA-HD Texture Analyser, stable micro system, UK). The texture of Omija-pyun was influenced by pectin and sucrose to the first linear order. The properties of springiness and adhesiveness were influenced by pectin x pectin to the second quadratic order. No cross product effects between ingredients were found from the analysis. The maximum springiness was obtained with 42g of pectin, 450g of sucrose, 110g of glucose syrup and 4.8g of tartaric acid. The maximum chewiness was with 55g of pectin, 330g of sucrose, 140g of glucose syrup and 5.7g of tartaric acid. The maximum adhesiveness was achieved using 17g of pectin and 400g of sucrose. The gumminess and hardness increased with increasing pectin content, and a cross product effect was observed(Eds note: you said earlier that no cross product effects between the ingredients was found\ulcorner) between sucrose and glucose syrup.

The effects of foundation scour depth and riverbed condition on the natural frequencies of a typical cross-river integral abutment bridge have been studied. The conventional operational modal analysis technique has been employed in order to extract the modal properties of the bridge and the results have been used in the Finite Element (FE) model updating procedure. Two tests have been carried out in two different levels of water and wet condition of the riverbed. In the first test, the riverbed was in dry condition for two subsequent years and the level of water was 10 meter lower than the natural riverbed. In the second test, the river was opened to water flow from the upstream dam and the level of water was 2 meter higher than the natural riverbed. The results of these two tests have also been used in order to find to what extend the presence of water flow in the river and saturation of the surrounding soil affect the bridge natural frequencies. Finally, the updated FE model of the bridge has been applied in a series of parametric analyses incorporating the effect of piles' relative scour depth on the bridge natural frequency of the first four vibration modes.
