The following study has been undertaken to build a model for evaluating the level of quality competitiveness of Korean companies in the area of information management. The objective of this paper is to compare the difference in quality-based competitiveness between the 100 advanced companies and other companies in IT management. This empirical study provides the questionnaire and the rating criteria for evaluation, so that any Korean company can easily evaluate their competitiveness. The model, the criteria and the results of this study can be used as a basis for benchmarking. The result indicates that the 100 advanced companies' quality competitiveness is significantly higher than that of most other companies that were surveyed in this study.

This paper examines the influence of the uncertainty in demand and lead time on the relative performances of ten well-known single stage lot-sizing rules in a rolling schedule environment. Two other factors, coefficient of variation and time between orders, which may affect the performances of the rules are also considered. To compare the rules under an identical condition, 100% service level is set by introducing safety stocks. The effects of various factor levels are checked statistically by the pairwise t-test and the results show that the uncertainty of the environment has a strong influence on the performance of the rules.

In this study, the J-Resistance Curve and material tearing modulus of SA508-C3 steel, which is one of the used nuclear pressure vessel steel, are measured ar room temperature, $200^{circ}C$ and $300^{circ}C$ according to load ratio analysis and ASTM E813, ASTM E1152, respectively. It is observed that J-R curve and Tmat value decrease as the temperature level increase. Applicability of $T_j$ proposed by Paris et al as instability parameter for ductile material is investigated. It is concluded that results are the $T_j$ parameter may be used as a crack instability parameter.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of Web-based small group discussion on the achievement and satisfaction in the practice-planning phase of Technology and Home Economy. The subject of this study consists of 68 students of a middle school. The 7r7up is divided into two subgroup. the Web-based discussion croup and the face-to-face discussion grouts. each of which has 34 students. The achievement is estimated by individual reports. practice plans and the overall evaluation sheets. To estimate the satisfaction of students. the test sheets were used. together with the interviews of sampled students from both group. The results show that there is a statistically significant difference in the performance of practice between the two groups with the significant level of 0.05(p<0.05). There is also some difference in the satisfaction between the two groups.

The dielectric breakdown of epoxy composites used for transformers was experimented and then its data were applied to Weibull distribution probability. First of all, speaking of dielectric breakdown properties, the more hardener increased, the stronger breakdown strength became at low temperature because of cross-linked density by the virtue of ester radical. The breakdown strength of specimens with filler was lower than it of non-filler specimens because it is believed that the adding filler forms interface and charge is accumulated in it, therefore the molecular motility is raised and the electric field is concentrated. In the case of filled specimens with treating silane, the breakdown strength become much higher. Finally, according to Weibull distribution analysis, reducing breakdown probability of equipment insulation lower than 0.1% level requires the allowable field allowable field intensity values to be kept under 21.5 MV/cm.

This study investigated the rheological and sensory characteristics of pickle with frozen pine mushroom. P3(Developed pickle seasoning) was the best by preference among three kinds of pine mushroom pickle seasoning. For flavor and functionality, pine mushroom pickle was processed by using three kinds of method(P3-1: P3+cinnamon 10 g, P3-2: P3+licorice 10 g and P3-3: P3+licorice 5 g+cinnamon 5 g). As a result, the product from P3-3(P3+licorice 5 g+cinnamon 5 g) was the best preferred pine mushroom pickle. The pH value of P3-3 was 2.15, 42.9 degrees Brix, and its color value was L(54.65), a(-1.61), b(17.87). Its texture level was higher than that of other products, but it would be lowered on storage. Until the 28th day of storage, microorganisms in pine mushroom pickle seasoning were detected less than 30 CFU/mL.

Saesongi (Pleurotus eryngii) was cultivated in both potato dextrose agar (PDA) and sawdust media supplemented with Ca salts. The addition of Ca phosphate and Ca carbonate to sawdust media did not affect the growth, whereas Ca sulfate addition suppressed the mycelial growth appreciably. The efficiencies of Ca accumulation in the fruiting were studied based on mycelial growth experiments on Ca-supplemented sawdust media. Supplementation with 0.1 to 5% Ca phosphate increased the Ca content in the fruiting body by 4.5-6.5 fold, to a level of $314.6{\pm}22.7$ to $449.7{\pm}29.3$.

The level of consumer knowledge has been gradually increased with the growth of living standard of consumer and the development of communication technology. The purpose of this study was to investigate the structure and measure of consumer knowledge and to find out relationship between objective knowledge and subjective knowledge. The subjects of this study were female adults from theirs twenties to theirs forties who lived in Seoul, Kyunggi or Incheon areas and Quota sampling method was used age and areas. The data were obtained from 603 questionnaires. Data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 10 and major statistical methods are mean, frequency, Pearson correlation coefficient, and Cronbach's $\alpha$ coefficient. The results are as follows: 1. Objective knowledge consisted of the product knowledge, brand knowledge, purchase knowledge and usage knowledge, and subjective knowledge consisted of experience and self-evaluation knowledge. 2. Consumer knowledge was related to the subjective knowledge and objective knowledge. But, there was relatively a low relationship between subjective knowledge and objective knowledge of apparel.

A DC resistance type humidity sensor using conductive carbon ink was fabricated and its performance was evaluated. The humidity sensor was fabricated using a screen printing technique and have a structure that does not require additional metal electrodes to measure resistance change. To evaluate the performance of the humidity sensor, we measured the DC resistance change under various relative humidity levels. The fabricated humidity sensor showed a resistance change of about $2.5{\sim}50k{\Omega}$ in 11 ~ 95% RH environment. It also shows a linear relationship in the relative humidity versus log DC resistance graph. In comparison with commercial humidity sensor under real environment, it can be confirmed that the resistance of the humidity sensor changes to almost the same level as the measured humidity. These results show that the resistance type humidity sensor can be operated stably in actual environment.

Automation is important in modern agricultural environment, which demands the highest level of technology. In the paper an independent four-wheel steering driving platform is developed especially for horticulture in glass house farm. Mathematical modeling of the four wheel system is carried out for smooth movement. The relationships between steering angle, the turning radius, and escape trajectory are simulated using the dynamic analysis program. Optimal driving algorithm is sought through the performance evaluation.
