The university admission system for talented students in computer and information areas has been mainly implemented during early admission period centering on universities located in metropolitan area since 1997. However, the current trend is that total number of selected students and universities that are selecting are continuously declining and 14 students were selected from 2 universities in school year 2013. Accordingly, it is difficult to expect positive effects on education related to information on secondary school curriculum, as well as train and select very talented students in certain areas. Such phenomenon is a result of insufficient educational activities on information of secondary school curriculum, as well as a reflection of social perception in the areas of computer and information. It shows that major variable with significant effects of university admission system has not been properly considered in the policy of training talented students at national level and the administration of secondary school curriculum on computer and information areas. Accordingly, there is a need for a comprehensive approach that considers the method and standards of universities' student selection system when establishing related future policy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the university academic achievements on the high school graduates of specialized vocational high school and general high school selected by the university admissions officer system. The implications of this study will contribute to improve development of university admission through the analysis of university admission achievements and correlation between university admission factors and university academic achievements. Participants of this study were university students selected by admission officer system in 2011 and have enrolled in the university for 6 semesters at A university. The results of this study are as follows: First, when it comes to the grades of university admission factors, graduates from specialized vocational high school outperformed those from general high school. Second, when it comes to the correlation between university academic achievements and university admission factors, graduates from specialized vocational high school slightly outperformed those from general high school. Third, when it comes to the correlation between university academic achievements and university academic achievements, graduates from specialized vocational high school showed poorer performance than those from general high school in overall courses and liberal arts courses. However, in major courses, graduates from specialized vocational high school outperformed those from general high school. Finally, when it comes to the development of university academic achievements, both of them showed a tendency of being improved as they advanced through school. Based on the findings of this study, several implications can be made as follows: First, it is necessary to improve the application ratio and application method of university admission factors. Second, it is required to provide preparatory courses of university to help graduates from specialized high school get adapted to university course of study.

Today, as the hierarchical cellular system is getting more attention than before, some recent studies introduce delay based admission control (AC) scheme which delays the admission to the macro-embedded small cell for a relatively short time to prevent unnecessary handover caused by the short-term visitors of the small cell area. In such delay based ACs, when we use improper delay parameter, the system frequently makes incorrect handover decisions such as where unnecessary handover is allowed due to too short delaying, or where necessary handover is denied due to too long delaying. In order to avoid these undesirable situations as much as possible, we develop a new delay parameter decision method based on probabilistic cell residence time approximations. By the extensive numerical and analytical evaluations, we determine the proper delay parameter which prevents the incorrect handover decision as much as possible. We expect our delay parameter decision method can be useful system administration tips in hierarchical cellular system where delay based AC is adopted.

The purpose of this study is to explore improving ways of screening of self-directed learning in self-governing high schools for expanding self-initiated learning screening system. To achieve the above aim, it was used survey method to 99 admission teachers of 12 self-governing high schools and analyzed responses with SPSS program. The research findings are as follows. To expand self-initiated learning screening system in self-governing high schools, it needs to obtain admission members of entrance committee, pooling of external screening members, quick decision of school admission members, increasing payment, training and understanding of the system and consideration of admission documents and study plan. Some improving ways of the expanding of self-initiated learning screening may be listed as follows: 1) development of screening model for self-governing schools 2) policy consideration for self-governing public high school 3) expanding autonomy of school 4) supporting budget 5) sharing of operation case and reinforcement of public relations.

The primary purpose of this study was to develop a college adjustment program for freshmen through admission officer system that relies less on test scores and on the various talents evaluated by admissions officers. To help these talented students adjust the new life of the university and enhance their gifts, a college adjustment program was developed with their special needs and characteristics. For that, the survey with 57 students and in-depth interviews with 12 students were conducted. The results revealed that the students wanted to learn study skills, self-management, global mind setting, and life vision and goals setting. Most of the students were worried about their grades because they entered the school with their talents and experience in diverse activities not SAT scores. To promote their academic performance, this program consisted of an academic readiness program which complements students' abilities in primary subjects like math, English, and science, and a potential progress program which is peer-group learning communities based on their own interests like global learning communities, creative learning communities, and service-learning communities. This program was suggested in the context of Comprehensive Development Model. To carry out the program systematically, related organizations and colleges should collaborate with each other.

Korean universities have selected candidates through admission officer system since 2009. However, the universities now have to settle several problems that they faced at the first stage of the system. Therefore, this research, taking the admission screening data of J University as examples, aims to discuss how differently the weight of the screening factors appears depending on the subjects related to college entrance, such as parents, teachers, and admission officers. The research indicates that the subjects have different perspectives about entrance screening requisites. Parents and teachers more value the student record that is a countable indicator than the letter of self-recommendation that is a uncountable indicator. However, it also indicates that admission officers take attitude against parents and teachers.

Mahalanobis Taguchi System (MTS) is a pattern information technology, which has been used in different diagnostic applications to make quantitative decisions by constructing a multivariative measurement scale using data analytic methods. In MTS approach, Mahalanobis distance (MD) is used to measure the degree of abnormality of patterns and principles of Taguchi methods are used to evaluate accuracy of predictions based on the scale constructed. The advantage of MD is that it takes into consideration the correlations between the variables and this consideration is very important in pattern analysis. The purpose of this study is constructing admission diagnosis system and define the effect of admission requirements for student's academic accomplishment.

We consider a multiserver system with two classes of customers with preemption, which is a widely used system in the analysis of cognitive radio networks. It is known that the optimal admission control for this system is of threshold type. We express the expected total discounted profit using the total number of customers, thus reducing the stochastic optimization problem with a two-dimensional state space to a problem with a one-dimensional birth-and-death structure. An efficient algorithm is proposed for the calculation of the expected total discounted profit.

Background: This study was conducted to examine the academic achievements of first year medical students in one medical school based on their characteristics and student selection factors of admission. Methods: The admission scores of student selection factors (Medical Education Eligibility Test [MEET], grade point average [GPA], English test score and interview) and demographic information were obtained from 61 students who had interviewed (multiple mini interview [MMI]) for admission (38 graduate medical school students in 2014, 23 medical college-transfer students in 2015). T-tests and ANOVA were used to examine the differences in academic achievement according to the student characteristics. Correlations between admission criteria scores and academic achievements were examined. Results: MEET score was higher among graduate medical students than medical college transfer students among student selection factors for admission. There were no significant differences in academic achievement of first grade medical school between age, gender, region of high school, years after graduation and school system. The lowest interview score group showed significantly lower achievement in problem-based learning (PBL) (p=0.034). Undergraduate GPA score was positively correlated with first grade total score (r=0.446, p=0.001) among admission scores of student selection factors. Conclusion: Students with higher GPA scores tend to do better academically in their first year of medical school. In case of interview, academic achievement did not lead to differences except for PBL.

Any future heterogeneous overlay network system must be able to support ubiquitous access across multiple wireless networks. To coordinate these diverse network environments, one challenging task is a call admission decision among different types of network. In this paper, we propose a new call admission control scheme to provide quality of service (QoS) while ensuring system efficiency. Based on the interplay between network structure and dynamics, we estimate the network's QoS level and adjust the service price adaptively with the aim of maximizing the network performance. A simulation shows that the proposed scheme can approximate an optimized solution while ensuring a well-balanced network performance in widely different network environments.
