Service-Driven Growth Pattern In IT Industries And Contributing Factors:A New Pattern In The Korean Industrial Development Perspective

This paper examines the pattern behind rapidly growing Korea’s IT industries. Korea has characterized economic growth based on export demand rather than domestic demand at the traditional industries such as automobile, electronics, steel, and shipbuilding etc. However, the recent development of IT industry is indicating a different aspect from traditional sectors. The rapid growth in service demand is becoming a key factor in the rapid growth and high competitiveness of IT industry. A statistical estimation testing relationship between mobile telecommunication, Internet service, and wireless equipment, computer, strongly supports service-driven growth pattern of IT industry. Strong network externalities in demand side, government’s demand promotion policies, residential environment, and users’ preferences, are main contributing factors to this new growth pattern

OCI-Based Group Communication Support in CORBA

Group communication is a useful mechanism guaranteeing consistency among replicated objects. The existing approaches do not allow transparent plug-in of group communication protocols into CORBA. They either require modification of CORBA or OS, or provide no room for incorporating group communication transport protocols into CORBA. We thus propose a generic group communication framework that allows transparent plug-in of various group communication protocols with no modification of existing CORBA. We extend the open communications interface (OCI) to support interoperability, reusability of existing group communication, and independency on ORB and OS. We also define the group communication inter-ORB protocol (GCIOP) as a group communication instantiation of the general inter-ORB protocol (GIOP) that encapsulates underlying group communication protocols. The proposed scheme can be exploited for fault-tolerant CORBA (FT CORBA)

ADADA 2016 14TH international Conference for Asia Digital Art and Design Association - Relationship between perceived value in Omni-Channel Shopping and repurchase intention

Along with the development of ICT, the distribution strategy of existing companies has been changing to the ‘Omni-Channel’ strategy. According to the diversification of distribution channels, the value of customer shopping has also been changing. Consumers that shop within various distribution channels want to acquire benefits through new and diversified experiences. Thus, it is important to perform studies on whether continuous purchase is possible by continuing from values that are being satisfied by certain elements of the Omni-Channel by grasping the cognition of consumers. This study identifies the characteristics of Omni-Channel consumption, perceived usefulness through the ease-of-use by consumers, and relationships with repurchase intention. This study provides a theoretical basis to activate the Omni-Channel which may satisfy the demand of consumers by setting causal relationship between each element by conducting a survey

Nutritional and neuroprotective characterization of 'Tadanishiki' yuzu according to harvesting period or extraction condition

The present study investigated the phenolic profile, antioxidant activity, and neuroprotective properties of ‘Tadanishiki’ yuzu (Citrus junos, a seedless variety of yuzu) according to harvesting period and extraction condition. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to identify the functional components. To evaluate the neuroprotective properties, scopolamine was used to induce cholinergic dysfunction in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells pretreated with yuzu extracts. Among the harvesting periods, September provided the optimum fruit weight of yuzu and relatively high amounts of total phenolics (3.67 mg/g DW), flavonoids (10.13 mg/g DW), and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity (29.10 μg Vit. C eq.). Of the functional compounds, hesperidin (13.57 mg/100 g DW) and naringin (5.84 mg/100 g DW) were the highest in 5% (w/v) yuzu extracted with 80% ethanol and this extract showed the highest DPPH (289.2 μg Vit. C eq.) scavenging activity. This same extract showed the highest cell viability and lowest cortisol or acetylcholinesterase content in scopolamine-treated SH-SY5Y cells. These results indicate that ‘Tadanishiki’ yuzu harvested in September should be extracted at 5% (w/v) yuzu with 80% EtOH, and this extract might be useful for application as a natural functional additive
