New measures should, however, be worked out in a try to counterattack the problems associated with its operation, increasing repetition of offenses, overcrowded accommodation and hiking rate of financial burdens.

Nowadays public welfare ideologies are situated in both the basic haman right and another basic part within all legal system. That kinds of public welfare concept is appeared that freedom of cancellation is a restricted principle by operating an idea within administrative acts's cancellation. And administrative acts's changed from beneficial administrative acts to infringement administrative acts. Like as cancellations are official powers cancellation and cancellation of judgement. At once an effective administrative acts's flaw are existent or injustice. A Caused by cancellation of official powers are different from other cancellations. That's why acting an administrative office is cancelled even injustice by administrative acts. So we have to care of that cancellation's subject. Specially Official powers of cancellation for beneficial administrative acts can't freely cancel as long as an existence of cancellation. And original cancellation of official power is not only canceled by administrative office which operates but also the competent authority can't get a cancellation without an express provision. Effect of cancellation of official power have to be retroaction before that behavior wasn't existence. But Those kind of situations potentially make already established legal-system break down and truster for good faith party betray. So we must decide to concrete comparative balances, natural effect of cancellation may not deservedly be retroaction. About Limiting cancellation of official powers, administrative office's behavior have to cancel generally but injustice action proceeding can't solve suitability of law. Because administrative office think about vested interest of people, peace of legal living. And then Deciding cancellation is up to public good and vested interest of people which are related in protecting confidence and comparative balance. Additionally although administrative acts have got a flaw, no one can do indiscriminately cancellation of official powers. Because this problem is related in peace of legal living. So Taking a concrete case that event was limited by profit balance and comparative balances. And administrative system needs to be improved.

Firms are increasingly recognizing the necessity of developing new products. New product(innovation), however, can fail. The key to successful innovation lies in developing better newproduct ideas and developing sound research and decision procedures at each of the newproductdevelopment process. The purpose of each stage is to decide whether the idea should be further developed or dropped. In this paper, especially, commercialization(product development, market testing, launching, sales planning and financing planning) is focused. Operating leverage and financial leverage refers to the use of fixed cost(fixed asset, debt) in an attempt to level up profitability. Both types of leverage affect the level and variability of the firm's aftertax earnings and, hence, the firm's overall risk and return. The higher the expected level of sales(or EBIT) assuming that it exceeds Breakeven point (or Financing breakeven point), the stronger the case that can be made for investing in fixed assets.(or debt financing)

'Cluster' is regarded as an important tool to establish industrial policy for regional endogeneous development and industrial growth. Clustering is formed by natural activities of innovative actors or positive artificial conditions of central and local government and so on. This paper focuses conditions or factors to form an successful innovative cluster. To this end, we review the success factors in several oversea's cases. This study suggests that several conditions or factors is necessitated in formating successful innovative cluster. Those are as follows : crisis of economic circumstances and responsive leadership, intellectual agglomeration, technology oriented corperation, leading venture business, active support and role of government, and establishment of strong network among innovative actors.

This study plans to conceptualize the media flow and habit to explain the internet addiction like game addiction, shopping addiction on the computer mediated communication. While the concept of internet addiction is negative and pathological, 'the media habit strength' is neutral and cognitive. And the media habit strength is better than simple media use to explain the heavy and problematic internet use. Some researches pay attention to the 'media habit' as one factor of gratifications that audience gets from using the mass media. At the early stage of the media habit, audience makes the active and selective choices of media channel or site. But through the repeat viewing and the sufficient media experience audience forms the patterned viewing habits. Patterned exposure and television dependency relationships interact to creates a 'habit'. These spiral of reinforcement of television is two step model of media habits. We describe the predicting variables which have a relationship with 'internet habit strength'. It is likely that individuals who prefer online social interaction also develop the strong media habit. And the ritualized use motivations(escape and pass time) will be positively related to the internet habit strength. Finally psychosocial distressed individuals(including chronic loneliness and depression) will have the strong internet habit.

Photonics industry is an advanced technology-intensive industry and has a great pervasive effect on its related industries. It is one of the favorable industry in 21th century.

This paper aims to examine the import pattern of Gwangyang port. The empirical work outlined here uses monthly data running from 2000M1 to 2007M6. All variables are in log form, which are obtained from the Korea International Trade Association and the Korea National Statistical Office. The major commodities that Gwangyang port imports include mineral fuels, metals, transportation equipments, agricultural products and iron and steel. We apply the Ordinary Least Squares to the model consisted of the income variable, the exchange rate, and the seasonal dummies. We find that all of income coefficients have positive signs, but some of exchange rate coefficients are insignificant or positive. This paper also shows that the most of the income coefficients of Gwangyang's major import items tend to increase as the time passes, but the effects of exchange rate are mixed up. The influence of the exchange rates tends to get strength in the items such agricultural products, transportation equipments, and chemical products, while the exchange rate effect decays in the mineral fuels and iron and steel products.
