PURPOSES : The purpose of this paper is to develop a methodology to estimate level of service of arterial including Exclusive Median Bus Lanes. METHODS : On 6 Exclusive Median Bus Lanes routes in Seoul, bus travel time and number of bus-stop per km were investigated. Also whether or not passing lane exists at bus-stop was checked. Based on the data from sites, bus travel time was estimated according to length of segment, number of bus-stop per km and whether or not passing lane exists at bus-stop. RESULTS : A bus travel time table was developed according to length of segment, number of bus-stop per km and whether or not passing lane exists at bus-stop. After bus travel speed and passenger car travel speed is estimated based on each travel time table and length of segment, two speeds are combined with weighted average speed using traffic volume of each lane group. Then weighted average speed is a measure of effectiveness of arterial including Exclusive Median Bus Lanes. CONCLUSIONS : It can be concluded that the proposed methodology can estimate level of service of arterial including Exclusive Median Bus Lanes considering the operation characteristics of Exclusive Median Bus Lanes.

PURPOSES : This study is to develop speed correction factor for more realistic Level-of-Service(LOS) at multilane highway. METHODS : In this study, we compared speed difference the degree of speed reductions in actual multilane road conditions with speed reduction considering speed correction factor presented in highway capacity manual using statistical techniques. And also we presents new speed correction factor analyzing collected data at national highway No.1 (Goyang~Wolrung). RESULTS : The result of analyzing and comparing new suggested speed correction factor with speed correction factor in Korea Highway Capacity Manual (KHCM) shows RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) in new speed correction factor (RMSE 1.5) is much lower than existing speed correction factor (RMSE 13.4). New suggested speed correction can be used for analyzing Level-of-Service at multilane highway. And also we suggests improvements for analysis procedure in analyzing Level-of-Service at multilane highway CONCLUSIONS : As a result of comparing differences, we draw the causes that effect the differences in speed and suggest new speed correction factor that consider traffic volumes. It can be more rational because it uses speed correction factor which can consider more realistic traffic conditions, etc.

본 연구는 비디오영상에 의한 간접설문조사방식을 통하여 도시부 간선도로의 운전자들이 주행 시 느끼는 인식서비스수준과 도로용량편람(KHCM)에 의해 산정된 실제서비스수준간의 차이를 확인하고, 운전자가 인식하는 서비스수준에 영향을 미치는 주요요인을 규명하는 것이다. 본 연구의 주요 연구결과를 요약하면, 첫째, 실제서비스수준과 인식서비스수준간의 인식률 차이를 검증한 결과, 신호교차로구간의 경우 40.8%, Mid-block구간의 경우 59.2%가 두 서비스수준을 동일하게 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 두 서비스수준간의 동질성 검정(F통계검정, t통계검정)결과에서도 두 서비스수준 간의 차이가 뚜렷이 나타났다. 둘째, 신호교차로구간에서 인식서비스수준에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 교통류(26.4%), 신호운영(23.1%), 기하구조(18.1%), 이용행태(15.9%) 도로경관(10.0%), 유지관리(4.4%), 교통정보(2.2%) 요인을 순서대로 고려하여 결정하는 것으로 분석되었으며, 이중 교통류 등 상위 3개 요인이 정량적 요인으로 67%를, 이용행태, 도로경관요인과 같은 정성적 요인이 26%를 점유하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, Mid-block구간에서 인식서비스수준에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 기하구조(25.3%), 경관(20.0%), 신호운영(19.2%), 교통류(15.3%), 이용행태(9.7%), 유지관리(6.4%) 교통정보(4.2%)순으로 분석되었으며, 특히 이중에서 정성적 요인에 해당하는 도로경관이 신호교차로구간 10.6%보다 높은 20.0%로 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 향후 서비스수준 산정을 위한 분석 시에는 운전자가 실질적으로 인식하는 정성적인 요인 (이용행태, 도로경관 등)을 고려하는 것이 필요하다고 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the differences of cognitive responses, emotional responses, customer satisfaction, and service loyalty about service encounter quality by types of restaurants and to analyse emotional responses, customer satisfaction, and service loyalty in accordance with level of service encounter quality. The questionnaire were collected from customers (N=812) who had used restaurants in Seoul, aiming at 15 or more-year-old customers from October 24, 2005 to November 6, 2005. The main results of this study were as follows: Statistically significant difference was showed in importance and performance of interaction quality, importance and performance of physical environment quality, performance of outcome quality depending on types of restaurants, while significant difference was not indicated in importance of outcome quality by types of restaurants. Positive emotional response was significantly high by types of restaurants in order of fine-dining restaurants, family restaurants, and fast-food restaurants, while negative emotional responses were significantly higher in fast-food restaurants than in the other two types. As far as Customer satisfaction are concerned, fine-dining restaurants showed higher customer satisfaction than the other two types. Attitudinal service loyalty was high in fine-dining restaurants, family restaurants and fast-food restaurants in order and behavioral loyalty was not significantly different with each type of restaurant. In accordance with level of service encounter quality, cluster analysis was conducted and the clusters were divided into 'high-valuation' and 'low-valuation'. 'High-valuation cluster' and 'low-valuation cluster' showed significant difference depending on types of restaurants that customers used(p<.001). The customers who used fine-dining restaurants and family restaurants valued the performance of service encounter highly. However, in fast-food restaurants, a lot of low-valuation customers existed. Therefore, fast-food restaurants have to improve performance of interaction quality, outcome quality and physical environment quality in service encounter. In addition, in 'high-valuation cluster' who valued service encounter quality highly showed higher scores in positive responses, customer satisfaction, service loyalty than in 'low-valuation cluster', and showed low negative responses.

This research fundamentally deals with an analysis of service level for a multi-level inventory distribution system which is consisted of a central distribution center and several branches being supplied stocks from the distribution center, Under continuous review policy, the distribution center places an order for planned order quantity to an outside supplier, and the order quantity is received after a certain lead time. Also, each branch places an order for particular quantity to its distribution center, and receives the order quantity after a lead time. In most practical distribution environment, demands and lead times are generally not fixed or constant, but variable. And these variabilities make the analysis more complicated. Thus, the main objective of this research is to suggest a method to compute the service level at each depot, that is, the distribution center and each branch with variable demands and variable lead times. Further, the model will give an idea to keep the proper level of safety stocks that can attain effective or expected service level for each depot

신호교차로는 도로조건, 교통조건, 신호조건 능 방대한 입력자료를 바탕으로 용량분석을 시행하고 이 과정을 토대로 주요 효과척도인 지체를 산정하여 신호교차로의 서비스 수준을 판단한다. 하지만 이러한 용량 및 서비스 수준 결정에 있어 바탕이 되는 현장 데이터(회전 교통량, 도로의 기하구조, 신호시간, 접근로 구배, 중차량비, 첨두시간계수, 차량도착형태 등) 입력자료의 불확실성으로 인해 초래되는 결과의 오류에 대해서는 고려되지 않고 있는 실정이다. 이로 인해 추정된 용량 및 서비스수준에 대한 신뢰성을 검증할 수 없는 문제를 내포하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해당 교차로 접근로의 교통량과 중차량 비율 및 도로의 기하구조 등 입력자료의 불확실성이 용량해석과 서비스수준 결정에 끼치는 영향을 고려해보고 이틀에 의한 영향을 최소화할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.
