This study suggests a Korean fashion design education model through a comparison of the fashion design curriculum and education systems in the USA, Europe, and Korea. For this, a case study of fashion design curriculum and education systems in the USA was performed with literature reviews about education methodology and design process to develop creativity, following the prior study, A Comparative Study on Fashion Design in Europe and Korea. For the case study, 12 superior fashion design education institutions in the USA were chosen from fashionista (N.Y.) and the goals, the emphases, the constitution of the online curriculum of each undergraduate fashion design course were examined. As a result of this study, Korean fashion design education model (1+2.5+0.5 model), was proposed by integrating the education systems of the USA and Europe, as follow: First, Korean fashion design education institutions need to be characterized and the departments/majors should be gradually specialized by the major. Second, foundation courses prior to undergraduate courses or during the 1st year should be established to result in a multi- disciplinary basic education. Third, a project based major needs to be performed that connects fashion design subjects with their related subjects for 2 and a half years as of the $2^{nd}$ year. These projects can be progressed by problem-solving design process of problem-identification and brainstorming-research, analysis-design concept-design ideation, selection-design development, implementation-critical evaluation and solutions. Fourth, collaborative projects or integrated courses with related Liberal Arts or other art and design majors should lead to muliti-discilplinary education. Fifth, the chance of increased active industry-academy collaboration and actual employment or enterprise can be facilitated by the establishment of only the courses related to domestic or international internships during the $2^{nd}$ semester of the $4^{th}$ year.

Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) guidelines have been published in the USA and Europe. Recently, the USA and Europe have updated their guidelines, respectively. These new AF guidelines help in addressing key management issues in clinical situations. This study, therefore, systematically compared guidelines for rate and rhythm control pharmacotherapy of patients with AF between the USA (American College of Cardiology and American Heart Association, ACC/AHA) and Europe (European Society of Cardiology, ESC). Methods: This study investigated and compared American guidelines (2014) and European guidelines (2010 and 2012). Results: Generally, there are four meaningful differences between ACC/AHA and ESC guidelines. Important differences are treatment classification system, level of recommendation, drug list, and dosage. In addition, ACC/AHA described pharmacokinetic drug interactions for antiarrhythmic drugs. ESC emphasized ECG and atrioventricular nodal slowing as feature of antiarrhythmic drugs. Conclusion: This research addresses important use of anti-arrhythmic drugs and movement to accept recent recommendations in Korea. For the successful application of the guidelines, a role of pharmacists is crucial in clinical situation.

Objective: Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are typically managed with dual antiplatelet therapy of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and $P2Y_{12}$ receptor inhibitor. In this study, we discussed current and previous antiplatelet therapy guidelines and compared with guidelines of the USA (ACC/AHA), Europe (ESC) and Korea (KSC). Method: This study investigated from ACC/AHA Joint Guidelines (the USA), ESC Clinical Practice Guidelines (Europe) and Korea Society of Interventional Cardiology (Korea) web site, respectively. Results: It is significant that difference between the current and the previous guidelines was integration of terminology from clopidogrel to $P2Y_{12}$ receptor inhibitors since prasugrel and ticagrelor, new antiplatelet drugs, has been added. The other difference was all three guidelines has differences in dose of aspirin. The most notable difference was class of recommendation(COR) in $P2Y_{12}$ receptor inhibitors. ACC/AHA and Korean guidelines recommend clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor with COR IB; whereas, ESC recommend prasugrel and ticagrelor with IB which is higher than clopidogrel with IC. Conclusion: This research addresses important movement to revise the Korean existing guideline recommendations. New Korean antiplatelet therapy guideline should be avoiding obvious differences in ACC/AHA and ESC guidelines and harmonizing international guidelines.

Regulation of food packaging in Korea, Eurpoe and USA are surveyed. Food packaging manufacturer or converter has a responsibility to evaluate the safety of migration of harmful materials from typical finished packaging items. The 'overall migration limit' of all components from the packaging and 'specific migration limits(SML)' of monomers or additives are evaluated with food simulants, water, acetic acid, ethanol and n-heptane, based on the regulations of the countries. A substance not regulated has to be authorized with the technical data required, information on chemical identity, physical chemical and other properties, the intended use, migration studies and toxicological studies.

In Europe and USA, new programs called GRC(Green Rotorcraft) and SRW (Subsonic Rotary Wing program) respectively, have been currently underway for developing the next generation rotorcraft. The final goal is to develope fuel-efficient/environmental-friendly tilt-rotor civilian rotorcraft, which can partly replace short-range regional aircrafts. Also for safe operation, the new rotorcraft technology is cooperated with the new air transport management(ATM) system, called SESAR(Single European Sky ATM Research) and NextGen(Next Generation Air Transport System) in Europe and USA. In addition to achieve the final goal, the tilt-rotor aircraft, they are trying to improve the performance of conventional helicopters by adopting more efficient propulsion system, active rotor system, and reducing internal and external noise. Especially in GRC program of Europe, the environmental factors such as noise, fuel efficiency, reduction of emission gas(CO2, NOx), are focused for the new technologies.

This study is designed to examine the current status of the performance warranty systems for asphalt pavements implemented in Europe, USA, and Japan, and to review the feasibility and possibility of introducing this system into the Korean environment. For such objectives, the concept and necessity of performance warranty and the status of Korean contracting systems and overseas performance warranty systems were evaluated. In particular, the bidding systems, performance guarantee systems, and maintenance work inclusion status in the projects and warranty specifications of Europe, USA and Japan were comparatively evaluated. And methods of introducing the performance warranty system by utilizing defects liability system and design-build contracts of Korea were suggested.

As basic research to develop HEV and EV agricultural field machinery, the present study analyzes the technical trend of electric agricultural field machinery through product analysis, paper analysis, and patent analysis concerning HEV and EV in the automobile, construction machinery, and agricultural machinery sectors. For product analysis, the homepages of companies in these sectors were consulted to analyze the number of products of each company. For paper analysis, key words related to HEV and EV were selected, a search formula was drawn up, and articles search sites were consulted. And for patent analysis too, key words were selected and then a search formula was drawn up to examine published patent applications or registered patent applications, and trends were analyzed by structure, country, and year. The number of HEV and EV products were 17 in the automobile area, 8 in construction machinery, and 4 in agricultural machinery. Notably, in the agricultural machinery area, all HEV and EV products were from advanced companies overseas. In terms of papers, papers published in the past 5 years were searched and 33,195 papers were from the automobile area, 3,806 were from construction machinery, and 2,687, the fewest papers, were from the agricultural machinery area. A search of patents in the electric drive technology area in Korea, USA, and Japan, and Europe showed 1,927 valid patents, with 1,120 in Japan, 497 in USA, 193 in Korea, and 117 in Europe. Analysis of the trend of research on electric agricultural field machinery by product, paper, and patent shows the development of HEV and EV technology in Korea is insufficient compared to USA, Japan, and Europe, which means rapid technological development is needed.
