문화는 국제 비즈니스부문에 있어서 기업경쟁력을 결정하는 핵심적 요소가 되어가고 있다. Perlmutter가 문화는 다국적 기업의 성공과 실패에 중요한 영향을 미치는 요소라고 언급한 이래 많은 학자들이 문화와 비즈니스에 관한 연구에 관심을 가져왔다. 그 가운데서 Hofstede 모델이 가장 널리 알려져 있으며, 대부분의 국제경영연구들이 이에 바탕을 두고 있다. 그러나 Hofstede 모델은 몇 가지 약점을 가지고 있으며, 종종 비판을 받아왔다. 이에 대하여 본 연구는 Hofstede 모델의 근본적인 문제점을 개선한 새로운 문화모델인 OUI 모델을 제시하였다. 또한, 문화를 경영·경제적 부문에 적용하여 경쟁력을 향상시킬 수 있는 능동적 요소로 파악하고, OUI 모델을 바탕으로 문화와 경제적 성과에 대한 실증분석을 하였다. 실증분석의 결과 개방성, 불확실성 회피, 개인주의라는 문화적 요소는 경제적 성과와 정(+)의 관계를 보여주고 있다. 또한 하위 문화요소의 불균형을 고찰하여, 경제발전단계 및 상황에 따라 경쟁력을 가장 효율적으로 향상시킬 수 있는 문화적 요소를 찾아내는 전략적 시사점도 제시하였다.

본 연구는 후보 유전자의 경제형질에 미치는 염기 변이 효과를 검증하기 위해 국내에서 사육된 듀록 품종 96두와 한국 재래 돼지 86두를 활용하였다. 검증에 활용된 4개의 후보 유전자는 MC4R, PA-KAG3, FABP3 그리고 ESR 유전자였다. 각 후보 유전자들의 유전자형 분석 결과 두 집단 간에 유전적 특성의 차이가 분명히 나타나고 있음을 확인하였다. MC4R 유전자의 A 대립 유전자는 두 집단 모두에서 성장 형질과의 유의한 연관성이 검출되었고,

The damage aspects of soybean by common cutworm, Spodoptera litura (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) at different larval density and different growth stage of soybean were studied in soybean field. The percent yield reduction(Y) of soybean infested by different densities of S. litura (X, no. of larvae/plant) under outdoor conditions for a three week period were estimated by the following equations: (1) Y = 1.655X - 6.025 (R² = 0.952) for the R1 (flowering stage), (2) Y = 0.725X - 0.475 (R² = 0.986) for the R3 (beginning pod stage), and (3) Y=0.635X - 1.325 (R² = 0.986) for the R5 (beginning seed stage). Based on the relationships between the densities of S. litura larvae and the yield index of soybean, the number of larvae (2nd-3rd instar) which caused 5% loss of yield (Tolerable injury level) was estimated to as approximately 6.7 for the R1, 7.5 for the R3, and 10.0 per plant for the R5, respectively. Average soybean leaf areas consumed by 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th larvae of Spodoptera litura during 24 hr at 28℃ was 0.3, 0.7, 2.6, 4.0, 20.1, and 55.8 ㎠, respectively.

This study was carried out to determine the economic injury level of the rice leaffolder, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis G.. The damage aspects of rice plant (at tilling stage) by leaf folders at different larval density per plant were studied in pot experiment (24 ㎝ in diameter, 18 ㎝ in height). One leaf folder consumed 6-7 leaves during larval stage. The damage by leaf folders was simulated by cutting off 0, 10, 30, 50, 70, and 90% of leaves before and after heading stage July 15th (at panicle initiation stage) and August 15th (at milk stage), respectively. When leaves were cut before the heading of rice, the linear relationships between the leaf cutting rate (X) and each factors of yield (Y) were as following, for grain maturity it was Y = -9.379X + 83.630 (R² = 0.493), Y = 0.139X + 0.490 (R² = 0.925) for yield, and Y = -4.880X + 81.116 (R² = 0.665) for head rice. When leaves were cut after the beading of rice, it was Y = -23.014X + 83.589 (R² = 0.915) for grain maturity, Y = 0.141X + 3.466 (R² = 0.842) for yield, and Y = -13.795X + 81.964 (R² = 0.898) for head rice. We found that when leaf cutting after the heading stage caused more damage than before the heading in terms of yield and yield components. Based on theses results the economic threshold level was estimated to be 30% and 7% leaf loss before and after heading stage.

According to the preceding survey on insect pests of the green perilla, Perilla frutescens var. japonica HARA, The major pests were Aphis egomae Shinji, Pyrausta panopealis (Walker), Tetranychus urticae Koch, Polyphagotarsonemus latus Banks, Tetranychus kanzawai Kishida at Guemsan, Chungnam, 2004. Aphis egomae causes nearly 100% injury of the green perilla in uncontrolled green houses. A field study was conducted to estimate economic injury levels (ElLs) and control thresholds (CTs) for A. egomae injuring green perilla in green houses. Different densities of A. egomae ranged from 1 to 80 aphids per 100 plants in early inoculation. The mean injurying rate of plant was 2.4% to 40.5% at the end of June at differently inoculated levels. The economic loss time calculated by the ratio of cost managing aphid to market price (C/V) (C: cost managing aphid, V: Market price) in early season (from May to 13. June) was 5.8% and in peak season (from 13. June to 30. June) was 9.3%. Economic injury level in early and peak season was 5.3 aphids per plant and economic injury levels in peak season were 0.6 aphids per plant and 7.6% injured rate of plant. The control thresholds calculated by 80% level of economic injury level in peak season were 0.5aphids per plant and 6.1% injury rate of plant, respectively.

  제조업에서는 보다 합리적으로 생산량을 결정함으로써 고객에 대한 납기 준수는 물론, 기업 내부의 비용을 감소시키기 위한 노력을 끊임없이 하고 있다. 합리적인 생산량의 결정은 기업 내적으로는 낭비를 제거하고, 생산 흐름의 안정성을 유지하여 주며, 기업 외적으로는 공급사슬 전체의 자재흐름을 원활히 해주고 고객의 기호 변화에 빠르게 대처할 수 있도록 한다. 이에 본 논문은 보다 높은 고객 만족도와 비용의 절감을 위해서 재고 유지비용과 생산준비비용만을 고려하
