Data-driven analysis on the performance evaluation of national R&D projects in Korea.

Research and development (R&D) is a crucial competency in both developing and developed countries. As a result, evaluating the performance of R&D programs has become a significant research topic for academic and governmental researchers. This study aims to investigate the impact of various factors, such as the characteristics of national R&D projects, research stages, technology types, and management institutions, on their performance.

An experimental study on the performance of fire extinguishing system according to the agent charging condition and nozzle type.

In confined environments such as aircraft, an increase in mass impacts the overall system's performance, thus requiring sophisticated management. To verify whether the performance characteristics of fire extinguishing systems used in aircraft are satisfied, in this study was built a 1:1 scale test model. We examined the influence of the initial charge state and nozzles.

Motivations for user satisfaction of mobile fitness applications: An analysis of user experience based on online review comments.

Considering that mobile fitness applications are one of the necessities in our lives, the user perspective toward the application is a prominent research topic in both academia and industry with the goal of improving such services. Thus, this study applies two different natural language processing approaches, bag-of-words, and sentiment analysis, to online review comments of the applications to examine the effects of user experience elements. The review dataset collected from 16,461 users, after pre-processing, revealed the notable roles of perceived affection and hedonic values in determining user satisfaction with the application, whereas the effect of user burden on satisfaction was marginal.
