Currently the regional festival for each city and province of Korea is a total of 555 on the basis of 2014. It reached the peak with 926 festivals in 2008, and since then all of them have tended to be merged. However, when all festivals that were excluded from the above data basis are combined, it is expected the total festival is exceeding around 2,000. In Japan, 7,400 festivals are held, and in Spain, more than one hundred thousand festivals are held. However, Korea has the demerit that too many festivals of similar themes are held unlike the cases of foreign countries. For example, the number of the festival related to cherry blossom is eight, and the number of the festival related to the movie is four. Due to this, sometimes disputes between each festival occur. However, the essential problem is that there are too many generous festivals that earn no profits. In this regard, this study tries to understand the problem of the culture tourism festival through analysis on the big data, and suggest the solution for this.

By using created problem solving element map, ideal solution could be easily derived.

빅데이터 분석은 데이터의 양, 처리속도, 다양성 측면에서 데이터 마이닝과 달리 문제해결과 의사결정을 위 해서는 새로운 도구를 필요로 한다. 많은 글로벌 IT기업들은 사용하기 쉽고 기능성이 우수한 모델링 능력을 가진 다 양한 빅데이터 제품을 출시하고 있다. 빅데이터 패키지는 분석도구, 인프라, 플랫폼 형태로 하드웨어와 소프트웨어를 포함한 솔루션이다. 빅데이터의 수집, 저장, 분석, 시각화가 가능한 제품이다. 빅데이터 패키지는 업체별로 제품 종류 가 많고 복잡한 기능을 가질 뿐만 아니라 선정에 있어서 전문 지식을 필요로 하며 일반적인 소프트웨어 패키지보다 그 중요성이 높기 때문에 의사결정 방법의 개발이 요구된다. 본 연구는 빅데이터 패키지 도입을 위한 의사결정지원 방법을 제안하는 것이 목표이다. 문헌적 고찰을 통하여 빅데이터 패키지의 특징과 기능을 비교하고, 선정기준을 제안 한다. 패키지 도입 타당성을 평가하기 위하여 비용과 혜택 각각을 목표노드로 하는 AHP 모델 및 선정기준을 목표노 드로 하는 AHP 모델을 제안하고 이들을 결합하여 최적의 패키지를 선정하는 과정을 보인다.

Big data analysis needs a new tool for decision making in view of data volume, speed, and variety. Many global IT enterprises are announcing a variety of Big data products with easy to use, best functionality, and modeling capability. Big data packages are defined as a solution represented by analytic tools, infrastructures, platforms including hardware and software. They can acquire, store, analyze, and visualize Big data. There are many types of products with various and complex functionalities. Because of inherent characteristics of Big data, selecting a best Big data package requires expertise and an appropriate decision making method, comparing the selection problem of other software packages. The objective of this paper is to suggest a decision making method for selecting a Big data package. We compare their characteristics and functionalities through literature reviews and suggest selection criteria. In order to evaluate the feasibility of adopting packages, we develop two Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) models where the goal node of a model consists of costs and benefits and the other consists of selection criteria. We show a numerical example how the best package is evaluated by combining the two models.

The purpose of this study is to analyze how people understand judgments of an umpire in fencing competitions and in which way problems can be improved. To achieve study goals, the research subjects are 196 people from college and general players, two leaders and two players registered as the players in Korea Fencing Federation were selected for the study. Also, questionnaires were distributed and in-dept interviews have been done to establish data bases. To analyze them, in case of the understanding of an umpire’s judgment, SPSS 15.0 was adopted for the frequency analysis. In addition, for in-dept interviews, a transcriber, coding and title creation techniques were employed, and to support the study’s validity, evaluation by research participants, triangulation and cooperation among colleagues have been performed. The study results are as follows. First, fairness of judgment by an umpire at fencing competitions and its perception by fencing players indicate average points. For them, they have defeated on competitions due to unfairness of judgment and acknowledged that the reason for it is because an umpire was not qualified enough to give fair judgment. Second, for the solution, training to make fair judgment, the systems producing good umpires, educating expert umpires and fair designation of umpires are required.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of gargling with S-solution and gargling with A-solution on salivary pH, coated tongue, and dental plaque index in preschool children. Methods: Non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used to select the participants. 99 preschool children were divided into three groups. Dependent variables were recorded at baseline, 30 minutes, and 7 days after the first treatment was given. The data were analyzed using X2-test, ANOVA, and repeated measures of ANOVA. Results: There were no significant differences in dependent variables in pre-test. However, the salivary pH in the S-solution group had significantly increased after 30 minutes (p<.05) and then again 7 days (p<.01) after the first treatment. Also, the S-solution and A-solution groups had greater decrease in dental plaque index after 30 minutes and again 7 days after the first treatment (p<.001) than the control group. With respect to coated tongue, there were no significant differences among the three groups. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that essential oil gargling after brushing is helpful in improving oral health due to auxiliary oral hygiene effects with natural products. Specifically, gargling with S-solution is more effective than A-solution on oral health in preschool children by neutralizing salivary pH and reducing dental plaque index.

Isogeometric solution of Poisson equation is provided. NURBS (NonUniform B-spline Surface) is introduced to express both geometry of structure and unknown field of governing equation. The terms of stiffness matrix and load vector are consistently derived with very accurate geometric definition. The validity of the isogeometric formulation is demonstrated by using two numerical examples such as square plate and L-shape plate. From numerical results, the present solutions have a good agreement with analytical and finite element (FE) solutions with the use of a few cells in isogeometric analysis.

Bitcoin is a decentralized crypto-currency, which is based on the peer-to-peer network, and was introduced by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008. Bitcoin transactions are written by using a scripting language. The hash value of a transaction's script is used to identify the transaction over the network. In February 2014, a Bitcoin exchange company, Mt. Gox, claimed that they had lost hundreds of millions US dollars worth of Bitcoins in an attack known as transaction malleability. Although known about since 2011, this was the first known attack that resulted in a company loosing multi-millions of US dollars in Bitcoins. Our reason for writing this paper is to understand Bitcoin transaction malleability and to propose an efficient solution. Our solution is a softfork (i.e., it can be gradually implemented). Towards the end of the paper we present a detailed analysis of our scheme with respect to various transaction malleability-based attack scenarios to show that our simple solution can prevent future incidents involving transaction malleability from occurring. We compare our scheme with existing approaches and present an analysis regarding the computational cost and storage requirements of our proposed solution, which shows the feasibility of our proposed scheme.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to explore the effects of A-solution on halitosis and oral status in preoperative NPO patients. Methods: A nonequivalent control group, non-synchronized pretest-posttest design was used in this study. The participants in this study were 66 patients who were admitted for gynecologic surgery. The experimental treatment was to give oral gargling with A-solution, blended essential oils and diluted with distilled water. To identify the experimental treatment effects, halitosis, salivary pH, and oral status were measured by a portable halitosis detector, visual analogue scale, Bromo Thymol Blue (BTB), Bromo Cresol Purple (BCP) test paper and oral assessment guide. Data were analyzed using $X^2$-test, t-test with PASW 18.0 version. Results: Participants were homogeneous before experimental treatment. Objective halitosis in the experimental group, measured by a portable halitosis detector (t=-8.34, p<.001) was significantly lower than the control group. Subjective halitosis was significantly lower in the experimental group (t=-9.29, p<.001). Salivary pH was significantly different between two groups (t=8.81, p<.001). Oral status was significantly better in the experimental group (t=-13.31, p<.001). Conclusion: These findings indicate that oral gargling using A-solution is effective in reducing patient halitosis, and improving oral status.

The concepts of graph theory are applied to model and analyze dynamics of computer networks, biochemical networks and, semantics of social networks. The analysis of dynamics of complex networks is important in order to determine the stability and performance of networked systems. The analysis of non-stationary and nonlinear complex networks requires the applications of ordinary differential equations (ODE). However, the process of resolving input excitation to the dynamic non-stationary networks is difficult without involving external functions. This paper proposes an analytical formulation for generating solutions of nonlinear network ODE systems with functional decomposition. Furthermore, the input excitations are analytically resolved in linearized dynamic networks. The stability condition of dynamic networks is determined. The proposed analytical framework is generalized in nature and does not require any domain or range constraints.

We provide an analytic solution for the problem of the unsteady, incompressible viscous fluid flow in the case of variable suction/blowing by applying similarity transform; the 'slip' condition at the boundary is considered. Several special cases with their solutions are given and are discussed graphically. It is observed that with an increase in suction the velocity increases and hence the boundary layer thickness decreases and with increase in blowing the velocity decreases and boundary layer thickness increases. It is also found that with an increase in slip parameter the velocity decreases.

Owing to the modification of testing methods of disinfectants or antiseptics, variations of bacteria according to characteristics of regions and resistance changes of bacteria, it is necessary that the bactericidal activities of disinfectants or antiscptics should be reevaluated nowadays. This study was carried out to reevaluate in the vitro bactericidal activity of Chlorhexidine gluconate solution. The results of experiment were summarized as follows. 1. For Chlorhexidine gluconate solution, minimal inhibitory concentrations of total bacteria taken from sewage water and Legionella bozemanii were $2.0\times 10^{-3}$%, $1.0\times 10^{-2}$%, respectively and were comparatively high. Minimal inhibitory concentration of Shigella flexneri was $1.6\times 10^{-4}$%, and was comparatively low. 2. For total bacteria taken from sewage water, it was killed within 15 minute in 0.1% Chlorhexidine gluconate solution when number of cells was $1.6\times 10^7$/ml. 3. For 0.0125% Chlorhexidine gluconate solution, decimal reduction times of Ps. aeruginosa, S. typhi, E. Coli were 45 sec, 25 sec, 18 sec repectively. For 1%, 0.125% Chlorhexidine gluconate solution, decimal reduction times of Legionella bozemanii were 10 sec, 45 sec respectively. 4. There was significant difference in the bactericidal activity of Chlorhexidine gluconate solution according to temperattire. Phenol coefficient of Chlorhexidine gluconate solution as using Staph. aureus was 100 and comparatively higher than that of other disinfectants. In comparison with other disinfectants, Legionella bozemanii was killed within 5 minutes in 0.02% KMnO$_4$ and 0.125% Chlorhexidine giuconate solution but was not killed within 3 minutes in 1% 0-cresol, 1% Phenol.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of sodium bicarbonate (SB) solution with chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthwash in oral care of acute leukemia patients under induction chemotherapy. Methods: Forty-eight patients were randomly selected and assigned to an SB solution group or CHXbased product group according to acute myelogenous leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Patients were asked to rinse their mouth four times a day from the day before chemotherapy started until discharge. The World Health Organization mucositis grade, patient-reported Oral Mucositis Daily Questionnaire, and clinical signs associated with infection were assessed on a daily basis. The oral microbial count was assessed on a weekly basis from the 1st day of chemotherapy started to the 28th day or to the day of discharge from the hospital. Results: Of all the patients in the SB group, 25.0% developed ulcerative oral mucositis, whereas 62.5% in the CHX group did. The onset of oral mucositis was later in the SB group than the CHX group. The oral bacterial colonization in the SB group was significantly higher than that in the CHX group, but clinical signs associated with infection did not differ in both groups. Conclusion: As a result of this study, it was found that oral care by SB solution for acute leukemia patients undergoing chemotherapy was an effective intervention to improve oral health.

This paper presents a sole application of boundary element method to the conjugate heat transfer problem of thermally developing laminar flow in a thick walled pipe when the fluid velocities are fully developed. Due to the coupled mechanism of heat conduction in the solid region and heat convection in the fluid region, two separate solutions in the solid and fluid regions are sought to match the solid-fluid interface continuity condition. In this method, the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) with the axial direction marching scheme is used to solve the heat convection problem and the conventional boundary element method (BEM) of axisymmetric model is applied to solve the heat conduction problem. An iterative and numerically stable BEM solution algorithm is presented, which uses the coupled interface conditions explicitly instead of uncoupled conditions. Both the local convective heat transfer coefficient at solid-fluid interface and the local mean fluid temperature are initially guessed and updated as the unknown interface thermal conditions in the iterative solution procedure. Two examples imposing uniform temperature and heat flux boundary conditions are tested in thermally developing region and compared with analytic solutions where available. The benchmark test results are shown to be in good agreement with the analytic solutions for both examples with different boundary conditions.

Nanoscale fabrication of silicon substrate in an aqueous solution based on the use of atomic force microscopy was demonstrated. A specially designed cantilever with a diamond tip, allowing the formation of a mask layer on the silicon substrate by a simple scratching process (Tribo-Nanolithography, TNL), has been applied instead of the conventional silicon cantilever for scanning. A slant nanostructure can be fabricated by a process in which a thin mask layer rapidly forms on the substrate at the diamond tip-sample junction along scanning path of the tip, and simultaneously, the area uncovered with the mask layer is etched. This study demonstrates how the TNL parameters can affect the formation of the mask layer and the shape of 3-D structure, hence introducing a new process of AFM-based nanolithography in aqueous solution.

효율적으로 국소마취를 유발시키는 procaine이온도입의 효과적인 농도를 조사하였다. 19세에서 34까지의 자원자 45명을 9명씩 무작위로 5군으로 나누어 배치하고, 각군 대상자의 오른쪽 전완 전면에 각각 $2\% (pH\;5.2H),\;4%(pH\;5.12),\;8\%(pH\;4.98),\;16\%(pH\; 4.72),\;32\%(pH\;4.52)$ 염산 procaine용액 2ml를 적신 $3.5\times3.5 cm$의 면패드를 대고 4mA로 10분간 양극 직류전류를 통전시켰다. 이온도입 직후부터 5분 간격으로 21 G주사침으로 이온도입부위를 1mm함몰되게 눌러 바늘로 찌르는 통증을 느낄 때까지 감각검사를 시행하여 국소마취지속시간을 측정하였다. Procaine의 농도에 따른 축소마취지속시간을 일원분산분석한 결과 유의한 차이를 보였으며 (F=5.83; df=4, 40; p<.001). 이를 사후검정한 결과 농도 $4\%$의 국소마취지속시간이 농도 $2\%,\;8\%,\;16\%,\;32\%$보다 유의하게 길었다 (p<.01). 또한 상관분석 결과 약물의 농도는 국소마취지속시간과 상관관계가 없었다 (r=-0.41, NS). 본 연구 결과 $4\%$ 농도의 염산 procaine 용액의 이온도입이 국소마취지속시간을 가장 길게 유지하여 $4\%$ 염산 procaine 용액이 이온도입에 가장 효과적인 농도였음을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to determine the of effective concentration of procaine iontophoresis for durarion of cutaneous local anesthesia. Forty-five healthy students with an age range of 19 to 34 years$(21\pm2.7)$, were participated in this study. The subjects were randomly assigned into 5 groups. Bach 9 subjects received iontophoresis on the flexor surface of dominant forearm with soft cotton pad $(3.5\times3.5cm)$ soaked in 2ml of $2\%$ (pH 5.28), $4\%$ (pH 5.12), $8\%$ (pH 4,98), $16\%$ (pH 4.72), $32\%$ (pH 4.52) procaine hydrochloride solution at 4mA for 10 minutes (total current 40mA min) using anodal direct current. The study was performed in a randomized, double-blind design, After procaine iontophoresis, the duration of anesthesia were evaluated at five minute intervals on five random locations in the iontophoretically area using a 21-gauge sterile hypodermic needle pressed with 1mm invagination unitl sharp pin-pricking pain sensation returned. The data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA to determine significant differences between groups. Duncan post hoc was performed at level .01. The relationship between anesthetic duration and procaine concentration was assessed with Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficients. ANOVA tests showed significant differences in the anesthetic duration between the concentration of procaine solution (p<.001). Procaine iontophoresis with $4\%$ concentration produced cutaneous Socal anesthesia of significantly longer duration(15.56 min) than iontophoresis with $2\%,\;8\%,\;16\%$, and $32\%$ of procaine GCl(p<.01). Whereas the anesthetic duration had no correlation with concentration of procaine solution (r=-0.41, NS). These results support the $4\%$ procaine solution was an effective concentration of iontophoresis for induced cutaneous local anesthesia.

We stuidied liauid crystal alignment treatment using solution process for making thin oxide layer in liquid crystal display. It is the one of very effient and popular process in making thin oxide layer in electronical industrial fields. Particularly, this process has highly potential value in liquid crystal display industrial fields because it cause automatically induced alignment process without tranditional alignment process in liquid crystal alignment process. We made several different kinds of mol density solutions using strontium oxide solution. And those solutions were treated for solidification layers using annealing process for 2 hours. And we stuided pretilt angle properties of these alignment layers of strontium oxide for clarifying the relationship of liquid crystal molecules and thin strontium oxide layer. And we also tested the existence of strontium oxide thin layer on substrate using XPS measurement. We expected the hig gain of electro-optical properties in liquid crystal display using strontium oxide thin layer because it has high K property material than the other metal-based oxide layers. In this results, we measured 1.447 to 1.613 thresholds volts as 0.1 mol to 0.4 mol density in 0.1 mol density steps. This is significant better characteristics than conventional liquid crystal display as higher than 1.85 thresholds volts. And it make possible to making next-generation liquid crystal display which present low-power consumption and wide gray scale in liquid crystal display.
