Clothes and human body are inseparably related. Aesthetic consciousness of the body determines the form of clothing, reflecting the time and culture as well as the individual and society. Clothes can even reorganize the meaning of the body, while transcending their instrumental functions of protecting, expanding and deforming the body. Using 'body' to analyze the clothing form, my study develops a framework by which to classify the planarization of the body in Japanese avant-garde fashion. In order to inquire the formative style and aesthetic values expressed in Japanese avant-garde fashion, my study examines subjects from the discourse on the body to the fashion collections of the 20th and 21st century. The results of the study are as follows. Japanese avant-garde fashion focuses on a planarization of the body which questions the three dimensional construction of the body in more conventional clothing system. Un-structured, variable space posited between the body and clothes, participation of the wearer, attention to recent technology and material, and absence of gender identification characterizes the planarization of the body in Japanese avant-garde fashion. The absence of body in fashion stresses a will-to-form rather than mere bodily proportion and structure, which explores trans-extensity that goes beyond the boundary of the body Ultimately, planarization of the body betrays the correspondence between signifiant and signifie in sartorial convention. Aesthetic ideal of the body is visualized in the form of a dress. Some clothes prioritize the body, particularly the feminine bodily curves, while others focus on the clothing itself as abstract and sculptural forms. Fashion continues to explore forms and images that transcend the traditional representations of the clothed body. As a type of intimate architecture, fashion always mediates the dialogue between clothes and body, or fashion and figure. My study suggests a framework to analyze bodily representation in Japanese avant-garde fashion, focusing on the relationship between the clothes and body.

Metamaterials, artificially structured nanomaterials, have enabled unprecedented phenomena such as invisibility cloaking and negative refraction. Especially, hyperbolic metamaterials also known as indefinite metamaterials have unique dispersion relation where the principal components of its permittivity tensors are not all with the same signs and magnitudes. Such extraordinary dispersion relation results in hyperbolic dispersion relations which lead to a number of interesting phenomena, such as super-resolution effect which transfers evanescent waves to propagating waves at its interface with normal materials and, the propagation of electromagnetic waves with very large wavevectors comparing they are evanescent waves and thus decay quickly in natural materials. In this abstract, I will focus discussing our efforts in achieving the unique optical property overcoming diffraction limit to achieve several extraordinary metamaterials and metadevices demonstration. First, I will present super-resolution imaging device called "hyperlens", which is the first experimental demonstration of near- to far-field imaging at visible light with resolution beyond the diffraction limit in two lateral dimensions. Second, I will show another unique application of metamaterials for miniaturizing optical cavity, a key component to make lasers, into the nanoscale for the first time. It shows the cavity array which successfully captured light in 20nm dimension and show very high figure of merit experimentally. Last, I will discuss the future direction of the hyperbolic metamaterial and outlook for the practical applications. I believe our efforts in sub-wavelength metamaterials having such extraordinary optical properties will lead to further advanced nanophotonics and nanooptics research.

Efficient service description and modeling methodologies are essential for dynamic service composition to provide autonomous services for users in ubiquitous computing environments. In our previous research, we proposed a 'u-service' ontology which is an abstract and structured concept for device operations in ubiquitous environments. One of the problems that we faced during the design process was that there are not enough standards to analyze the effectiveness of a u-service ontology. In this paper, we propose a quality evaluation model to facilitate the design process of a uservice ontology. We extract modeling goals and evaluation indicators based on the uservice description specification. We also present quality metrics to quantify each of the design properties. The experiment result of the proposed quality model shows that we can use it to analyze the design of u-service ontology from various angles. Also, it shows that the model can provide a guideline, and offer appropriate recommendations for improvements.

Since product design strongly depends on the experience and ability of the designers, and a long lead time is required for the product design stage, introducing a support system related to this experience and ability is an effective technique to reduce the lead time. In this paper, an information system is developed to support the development of engineering mechanisms with the evaluation of the assembly process on the basis of the abstract functions required for new products. The developed system is based on a database system involving the following data structure: (1) a hierarchical structure related to information about the product functions, (2) the relationship between the parts and engineering functions and/or mechanisms of products, and (3) the relationship between the parts and manufacturing characteristics. The system stores the relationships between the product functions, structure of parts, and assembly characteristics. This information can then be interactively retrieved using the data structure described in (1), (2), and (3). A procedure for designing new products is proposed that involves using the information about existing products. This paper presents the characteristics of the proposed procedure and the developed information system. In addition, a case study of the redesign of a simple structured robot by using the proposed procedure is discussed.

본 논문에서는 퍼지 트리플을 사용하는 내용 기반 이미지 검색 방법을 제안한다. 이미지 내 객체들 사이의 공간 관계는 내용 기반 이미지 검색을 위해 사용되는 주요한 속성들 중의 하나이다. 그러나, 기존의 트리플을 이용한 이미지 검색 시스템들은 개념 기반 검색 방법을 지원하지 못하고, 방향들 사이의 근사 정합을 처리하지 못하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 개념 기반 정합과 근사 정합을 지원하는 퍼지 트리플을 이용한 이미지 검색 방법을 제안한다. 개념 기반 정합을 위해서는 퍼지 소속성 집합으로 이루어진 시소러스가 사용되며, 근사 정합을 위해서는 방향들 사이의 관계를 정량화 하기 위한 k-weight 함수가 각각 이용된다. 이 두 가지 정합은 퍼지 트리플 간의 퍼지 정합을 통하여 균일하게 지원될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 또한, 개념 기반 정합과 근사 정합에 대한 검색 효과를 정량적으로 평가하는 작업을 수행한다. Abstract This paper proposes an inexact and a concept-based image match technique based on fuzzy triples. The most general method adopted to index and retrieve images based on this spatial structure may be triple framework. However, there are two significant drawbacks in this framework; one is that it can not support a concept-based image retrieval and the other is that it fails to deal with an inexact match among directions. To compensate these problems, we develope an image retrieval technique based on fuzzy triples to make the inexact and concept-based match possible. For the concept-based match, we employ a set of fuzzy membership functions structured like a thesaurus, whereas for the inexact match, we introduce k-weight functions to quantify the similarity between directions. In fuzzy triples, the two facilities are uniformly supported by fuzzy matching. In addition, we analyze the retrieval effectiveness of our framework regarding the degree of the conceptual matching and the inexact matching.

과학적 연구 방법은 가설을 세우고 실험이나 관찰을 통해 얻은 자료를 이용한 경험적 사실을 바탕으로 가설을 추상화하는 과정을 거치게 된다. 이 과정에서 자료를 획득하는 방법이 추상화의 최초 과정이 되고 많은 경우 서베이 리서치라는 구조화된 문항을 통한 방법이 사용 된다. 자료가 획득된 후에는 회귀분석, 선형구조방정식 등 고급 통계 기법들을 사용하여 가설들을 추상화하는 과정을 거치게 된다. 여기서, 설문지를 통해 많은 수 의 문항들의 응답이 획득되고 추상화를 위해 차원 축소라는 과정을 거치게 된다. 하지만 차원 축소된 정보들이 때때로 실제 현상을 이해하는데 있어서 현실감을 떨어지게 하는 경우도 존재하고 추상화 보다는 설문지 자체에서 어떤 지식을 얻기가 요구되기도 한다. 본 연구에서 설문지의 문항들 중에서 과연 어떤 문항들이 연구하고자 하는 문제의 해답을 줄 수 있는 핵심적인 문항인지를 찾아내고 이들 핵심 문항들로 모델을 구축하는 방법을 제시하였다. 강의 평가 자료를 예제로 사용하여 보다 나은 강의 평가를 받기 위한 전략들을 구상하여 보았다.

지금까지 조직의 정렬에 관한 대다수 연구는 비즈니스 전략과 정보기술 간의 정렬에 집중되어 왔다. 더구나 이러한 정렬은 조직의 관점, 시각, 범위 요소를 포함한 전사적이고 통합적인 정렬이기 보다는 관점 등 일부분의 요소를 중심으로 이루어져 왔다. 한편, 전사적 아키텍처는 조직의 구성요소와 이들 간의 상호관계를 전사적이고 통합적으로 제시한 청사진이다. 요즈음 많은 조직들은 이러한 전사적 아키텍처 개념을 기반으로 비즈니스 전략과 정보기술 간의 정렬을 시도하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 전사적 정렬 방법은 아직 개념적이고 추상적인 수준에 머무르고 있는 실정이다. 따라서, 본 논문은 기존의 부분적인 정렬보다 구조화된 전사적 정렬 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 기존의 연구 결과를 분석하고, 전사적 아키텍처 개념을 기반으로 관점, 범위 및 시각 등 3차원 요소를 포함한 전사적 정렬을 위한 개념적 모델, 논리적 모델 및 물리적 모델들을 제안한다. 마지막으로 제안된 모델이 기존의 모델들 보다 조직의 구성요소를 전사적으로 정렬하는데 적합함을 비교 및 평가를 통하여 보여주고 있다.

The purpose of this descriptive study was to identify problems and solving strategies on student evaluation of clinical nursing education. Subjects were 239 nurses in 18 hospitals from February to July, 1999. Content analysis using qualitative research method was used to analyze data taking into account the semi-structured questionnaire. The results of this study were as follows: Four categories about problems and solving strategies on the evaluation of clinical nursing education were identified: 'The environment of the clinical nursing education'; 'contents and items of evaluation tool'; 'criteria of evaluation tool'; and 'problems with evaluators in clinical settings'. The problems of the environment of the clinical nursing education were due to the lack of co-ordination between nursing schools and hospitals. In order to solve these problems, the following strategies were suggested: 'initiate a joint meeting between nursing schools and hospitals'; 'do not change the clinical settings frequently'; 'evaluate students after being familiar with them'; and 'evaluate them immediately after clinical practice was ended'. In the problems of contents and items of the evaluation tool, the contents of the tool were very abstract and general. The strategies for treating these problems were to evaluate student using the concrete evaluation items'; refrain from evaluation of nursing knowledge', develop the evaluation tools that are fit for a specific clinical setting'; develop the evaluation tools in line with students' knowledge level; and 'carry out evaluation using the proper contents of tool. The problems of criteria of the evaluation tools were the results of the lack of the clear criteria. The strategies for treating these problems were 'develop the criteria of the evaluation tool'; simplify the range of the cores or evaluate students using check-list'; to evaluate students in objective manner'. The problem of evaluators in clinical settings was due to the failure by evaluators who were not prepared for the task. The strategies were 'to educate and prepare the evaluators before evaluation'.

Performing the first peer review of a plastic surgical research article can be an overwhelming task. However, it is an essential scholarly skill and peer review is used in a multitude of settings: evaluation of journal articles, conference abstracts, and research proposals. Furthermore, peer reviewing provides more than just the opportunity to read and help improve other's work: peer reviewing can improve your own scientific writing. A structured approach is possible and recommended. In these ten tips, we provide guidance on how to successfully conduct the first peer reviews. The ten tips on peer reviewing concern: 1) Appropriateness: are you qualified and prepared to perform the peer review? 2) Familiarization with the journal and its reviewing guidelines; 3) Gathering first impressions of the paper followed by specific tips for reviewing; 4) the abstract and introduction; 5) Materials, methods, and results (including statistical considerations); and 6) discussion, conclusion, and references. Tip 7 concerns writing and structuring the review; Tips 7 and 8 describe how to provide constructive criticism and understanding the limits of your expertise. Finally, Tip 10 details why-and how-you become a peer reviewer. Peer review can be done by any plastic surgeon, not just those interested in an academic career. These ten tips provide useful insights for both the aspiring and the experienced peer reviewer. In conclusion, a systematic approach to peer reviewing is possible and recommended, and can help you getting started to provide quality peer reviews that contribute to moving the field of plastic surgery forward.
