Following consistent and rapid general economic growth, Pacific Rim
countries have grown as a major force in sports. Australia, China,
Japan and Korea populated the top ten medals list at the 2012
London Olympics. Pacific Rim countries are major consumers of
international sports and domestic professional sports have expanded
continuously over time. Nippon Professional Baseball and the Korean
Baseball Organization are the second and third largest baseball
leagues measured by attendance and revenue following Major League
Baseball in the U.S. This book also includes event studies of team
ownership, assessment of human capital markets, analysis of the
relationship between attendance and competitive balance, the
components of fan demand in common the world over, and business
decisions concerning attendance and pricing. There is already
demand for comprehensive study of the sports business in the
Pacific Rim as witnessed by this growth. This book will be of
interest of researchers studying and/or teaching in the fields of
sports economics and sports management as well as a general
audience interested in business governance around the world.

This book comprises selected papers of the 4th International
Conference on Future Generation Information Technology, FGIT 2012,
held in Gangneug, Korea, in December 2012. The papers presented
were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and
focus on the various aspects of advances in information technology.
They were selected from the following 11 conferences: BSBT 2012,
CGAG 2012, DCA 2012, DTA 2012, EL 2012, FGCN 2012, GDC 2012, IESH
2012, IUrC 2012, MulGraB 2012, and UNESST 2012.
As future generation information technology (FGIT) becomes
specialized and fr- mented, it is easy to lose sight that many
topics in FGIT have common threads and, because of this, advances
in one discipline may be transmitted to others. Presentation of
recent results obtained in different disciplines encourages this
interchange for the advancement of FGIT as a whole. Of particular
interest are hybrid solutions that c- bine ideas taken from
multiple disciplines in order to achieve something more signi- cant
than the sum of the individual parts. Through such hybrid
philosophy, a new principle can be discovered, which has the
propensity to propagate throughout mul- faceted disciplines. FGIT
2009 was the first mega-conference that attempted to follow the
above idea of hybridization in FGIT in a form of multiple events
related to particular disciplines of IT, conducted by separate
scientific committees, but coordinated in order to expose the most
important contributions. It included the following international
conferences: Advanced Software Engineering and Its Applications
(ASEA), Bio-Science and Bio-Technology (BSBT), Control and
Automation (CA), Database Theory and Application (DTA), D- aster
Recovery and Business Continuity (DRBC; published independently),
Future G- eration Communication and Networking (FGCN) that was
combined with Advanced Communication and Networking (ACN), Grid and
Distributed Computing (GDC), M- timedia, Computer Graphics and
Broadcasting (MulGraB), Security Technology (SecTech), Signal
Processing, Image Processing and Pattern Recognition (SIP), and-
and e-Service, Science and Technology (UNESST).
