Pages 1-7
Jayson E. Lannu, Mary Florence L. Nobleza

Abstract
Industrial Design as a profession seeks to strategically address the industries’ needs for aesthetically functional designs through innovation with the ultimate goal of improving quality of life and building business success. The Design practice in the Philippines can be considered to be at its prime with spotlights focused on internationally renowned designers. Several names made a mark in the international scene showcasing Filipino ingenuity and craftsmanship and this has proven the marketability of Filipino designers locally and abroad.Quality of the Industrial Design program and its relevance and applicability to the current trends in design practice has gained not much attention for the past few decades of its existence. The contents of curriculum and core competency- building capacity of institutions to hone future designers may have had too little attention not enough to withstand the competition this profession poses. The research revolved at the competencies level of practicing Filipino designers and their employability in the international arena. Technical knowledge, certifications or licenses, and relevant experiences were treated as indicators of competencies; on the other hand, their employability was established through their work- base, level of work, immediacy of employment and years of practice. These variables were tested to provide a clear grasp of how competencies can influence the ability of designers to be employed in the global market. The results provided remarkable assessments on how designers perceive their level of competencies and have offered a glimpse on how Filipino designers were received globally. It is the thrust of this study to provide academic institutions an anchor for program development to address opportunities identified. Often, we associate competency with employability and equate it as a guarantee for success, however effective learning experience, relevance of program and effective relay of significant knowledge are key to ensure that graduates of the Industrial Design Program are equipped and ready to make their mark in the design industry..

Motives for Participating in Sharing Economy: Intentions to use Car Sharing Services

Pages 8-12
Jaehun Joo, Matthew Minsuk Shin

Abstract
Sharing economy refers to economic activities giving or receiving possession, use, or enjoyment in common by a group. Sharing economy is regulated by a set of social relations such as friendships and relationships, while commercial economy is governed by the logic of market like price mechanism (Lessig, 2008). Terminologies similar to sharing economy are collaborative consumption, collaborative economy, and peer economy (Botsman, 2013). Botsman (2013) suggested three types of sharing economy as shown in Table 1. Product service systems are to offer goods as a service rather than sell them as products. Car sharing service such as Zipcar and Socar is an example of the product service systems. Redistribution markets refer to swap or exchange used or pre-owned goods in open marketplaces between someone who they are not needed and those who they are needed. eBay, Auction, and Gmarket are their typical examples. Collaborative lifestyles enable people to share and exchange less-tangible assets such as space, skills, time, and money in communities. Airbnb and Kozaza offer a service sharing houses and spare rooms. Kickstarter is an instance of the crowd funding service.

Pages 22-35
Jeong-Ho Koo, Yeon-Hee Park, Tae-Young Paik

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of sales trend of industries on the cost behavior of their constituent firms. The results of this paper are as follows. First, the behavior of SG&A (Selling, General & Administration) costs is affected by changes in industry sales. That is, SG&A costs of firms are affected negatively when industry sales decrease. The degree of the SG&A costs decrease is smaller when industry sales decrease than when they increase. While SG&A costs of firms are affected positively when the industry sales decrease continuously, it indicates that the firm will decrease costs aggressively due to the influence of a continuous decrease in its industry sales. Second, the cost behavior of a firm is affected by the interaction between a temporary decrease in sales and a continuous decrease in sales. That is, cost stickiness is caused by interaction between industry sales temporary decrease and firm sales temporary decrease. Also, cost stickiness is caused by interaction between industry sales continuous decrease and firm sales temporary decrease. The relative magnitude of a cost decrease is different depending on the interaction between temporary decrease and continuous decrease. The degree of a cost decrease is smaller when both industry and firm sales temporary decrease than when industry sales continuous decrease and firm sales temporary decrease. The degree of a cost decrease is smaller when both industry and firm sales temporary decrease than when both industry and firm sales continuous decrease. Finally, the degree of a cost decrease is smaller when industry sales continuous decrease and firm sales temporary decrease than when both industry and firm sales continuous decrease

Abstract

Recently, the concept and realization of Ubiquitous Healthcare (U-Health), the key feature of which is identifying health status of patients and providing them relevant medical services regardless of time and place, is receiving wide attention as the rise in mortality rate due to rapid aging of population and chronic diseases is becoming a serious social problem. The convergence of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and healthcare activities has contributed decisively to the development of U-Health products, services and their producers, and the industry is one of those that are most vigorously combining with the Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Research on IoT-based U-Health has been concentrated in the technological realization, and only few offered varied perspectives such as the direction of future technological development and suggestion of new products and services. Especially, studies that base on empirical evidence such as the patent data and provide beneficial prospects and directions for the industry is rare. In this paper, the forecasting of promising technologies for the IoT-based U-Health industry is conducted by implementing the quantitative method of network analysis and the qualitative trend analysis. As the result, five technology fields are predicted as encouraging, namely 1)modules for controlling, transmitting, receiving and communicating individual user records, 2)devices and interface for creating, perceiving and managing health condition and place information, 3) image monitoring and detecting system consisting of computer networks, 4)storage, recognition and processing of biological signals via wearable devices with built-in sensors, 5)remote-controlled systems for tracing health status and activities of individual patients. The advantages of this study are that it utilized both of quantitative and qualitative research methods to complement the weakness of each, and that the result of the forecast offers implications to the strategy formulation of companies and other entities in the converging industry with large technological and managerial uncertainties.

Abstract

Nowadays considerable effort has been devoted to studying the word formative neology. A wealth of information about neologisms in English is available now, but much less is known about lexical innovation. Information on this topic has been scanty. An important unsettled issue is the frame of lexical innovation and its word-formative potential. In this regard it is of interest that the tendencies of word- formative types can be changing due to the changes of technical, social and political sides of human life. It is tempting to consider the word-formative types in view of new data on neologisms.

Abstract

DTI is one of the most sophisticated and relatively new neuroimaging technique that allows in vivo quantification of water diffusion properties. It can also assess the integrity of white matter microstructure. In our study, we investigated normative data from a large number of healthy participants in three different age groups to examine the developmental trends in diffusion tensor imaging during this white matter maturation period. DTI data in 85 healthy subjects in three different age groups were analyzed retrospectively using 1.5 T MRI system. FA values were measured at the corpus callosum, centrum semiovale and pons using fixed ROI technique with a b-value of 1000 s/mm2 and TE=100 millisecond. FA values showed regional variation between different white matter regions of the brain. The highest and lowest values found varied with location in the brain white matter. In a normal adult population FA values of the brain white matter showed regional variation. These points should be taken into consideration while interpretation in clinical patients. We demonstrate a relationship between FA and normal ageing which is a key feature to detect early white matter changes. We propose that FA may provide an early means for the detection of age-related change and suggest a need for elaborate data to explore this association with comparison with a diseased population.
