Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to define the process of human motion design in hierarchical space by cybernetic technology using mathematical symbol construction of hierarchical systems (HSs) and realize the technology in tasks of biomechanical motion design.

Design/methodology/approach

Suggested HS technology allows definition of human motion on level space. HS are presented by their two main symbol images, i.e. mathematical symbol construction and graphic image. Those images connect all the strata of HS, show the acts of systems multiplying (learning) and uniting (design), the place of man in hierarchical space and human activity on higher levels. The design&control tasks are solved by HS coordinator.

Findings

The paper proves that HS technology presented allows design&control tasks of human motion in hierarchical space to be solved. Coherence of man's construction deformations and correspondent changes of his interactions with environment elements (his motion) is controlled by HS coordinator. Coordinator design tasks are formulated. The possibility of computer program description in frames of the proposed technology is revealed.

Practical implications

The technology presented gives an instrument for the design&control of different kinds of human motion in hierarchical space, predicts connected motion dynamics on different levels. It is applied in design tasks of biomechanical motion.

Originality/value

The method (technology) presented meets all the requirements of practical cybernetic (design&control) tasks. It brings new light to theory and practice of human motion design, presents human motion as hierarchical process in the level space, allows motion design&control task to be solved as coordination task of HS coordinator.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to measure the effects of TPP on Korean economy focussing on the changes in the number of firms and productivity.

Design/methodology/approach

Following Melitz (2003) and Balistreri et al. (2011), the authors apply CGE simulation to five groups of 140 countries.

Findings

The authors find that welfare increases in Korea to join the TPP regardless the size of the TPP through productivity improvement of participating firms and increases in the number of exporting firms, factor prices and outputs.

Practical implications

This study helps tentative member countries of TPP decide to join.

Originality/value

The effects of TPP to Korean economy is measured with Melitz model, which has not yet attempted before.
