Adolescents reach the game-use states of adaptive and maladaptive by the absorption to computer game. Authors claimed that the two states are commonly related with the time of game-use, and the degree of them are distinctive according to adolescent individuals, specifically their self-control propensity. Authors proposed a conceptual research model that Big Five personality types predict their self-control which moderates the relationships from game use-time to the maladaptive and adaptive states. The data to test its validity and reliability had been sampled 999 Korean students in elementary school, middle school, and high school. Resultingly, the openness and conscientiousness of the adolescents affected positively on the self-control, which moderated negatively the relationship from the game use time to the maladaptive use state, but the positive moderation on the relationships from game use time to adpative state was not significant. These results mean that we could apply teenager's Big Five personality type and their self-control traits as a tool for preventing teens from the overuse state like addiction.

This study aims to investigate the transition of the game rating system in Korea and to search for problems and improvement measures in the era of IARC game grade review. IARC(International Age Rating Coalition) is an International Classification Alliance, with 37 member organizations from 6 countries. In addition, IARC grants participating store-fronts autonomy to review game ratings. The method of deliberating games in Korea is proceeding with direct review by rating system and deliberation by IARC's own classification system. The problem of the rating system of the game is that the civilian becomes the subject, it relies on the questionnaire, and its side effects are caused by its own classification system. IARC guidelines can be developed to improve the game rating system, education on penalties and ratings for game developers, and management of participating front-stores. In conclusion, it may be dangerous to delegate rating authority to open market, and it is necessary to construct a discussion forum for ratings, including government and industry, game developers, users, and parents of under-age gamers. It is necessary to create a rating system for the game environment in Korea.

With the development of blockchain technology, play-to-earn (P2E) games, one of the decentralized applications (dApps), are receiving great social attention. P2E games are positively evaluated as areas with high growth potential based on blockchain technology, and at the same time, they are negatively evaluated as speculative as people can cash P2E game items in the form of cryptocurrency. In this situation, the purpose of this study is to investigate factors affecting the intention to use P2E games. Along with the discussion of hedonic system adoption, we consider the factors with perceived enjoyment, economic incentive, and social influence. In order to verify our research model, data were collected from 350 adults with P2E game experience or recognition, and a structural equation model was carried out. The analysis results find that perceived enjoyment and subjective norm have a significant positive effect on the intention to use P2E games, and economic incentive does not have a significant effect. In addition, peer influence and external influence have a significant positive effect on subjective norm. Drawing on these findings, we present several academic and practical implications for future research.

Game Trailer plays the role of main marketing for promotion of game. Recently, the characteristic can be summarized as storytelling, graphics method, production technology, and game mechanics of 3D Game Trailer. Online game was produced as cinematic trailer in the beginning, but recently, in-game trailer has been produced as machinima production method for users. This method reveals functions, various contents, and graphics related to the game through trailer, and it is useful in giving information and curiosity related to the game. Machinima composes background and characters in a short period of time online due to recent 3D CG methods, and only dubbing needs to be proceeded. This saves production fee and production period, and it also has the advantage of having multi-story. Game trailer Thanatos is a video developed through machinima production method. This paper proposes production process and the importance of the key components of the whole project through the above four aspects to be used in the actual production stage by intuitively apply and analysis.

This study tried to look into various linguistic elements of MMORPG and suggested teaching methods to be applied in teaching and learning English. To support this idea, diverse attributes of CALL applications were investigated and suggested suitable position of MMORPG in technological stream of CALL. After that, focusing on 'Goonzu Global', the linguistic environment of MMORPG was considered. Based on aforementioned results, this study proposed an effective method to utilize MMORPG in teaching English adopting three teaching methods; collaborative method, task-based learning and problem-based learning.

Many web-based simulation environments have been proposed to create models and execute simulation through the Web. Although web-based simulation has the advantage of utilizing many computers connected to Internet, overhead of the web server and heavy traffic caused by Java RMI degrade the performance and scalability of simulation. In this paper, we design and implement web-based distributed simulator using Java for the scalability and performance. In addition, we can apply the proposed simulator to create model server and client engines in online game. We apply the proposed simulator to simulate ATM switch queueing model.

The world is changing fast from the information society to the knowledge society as the amount of knowledge exploded over through development of the information communication technology. Much efforts to use serious fames for students' learning is being made actively via international and domestic. It is expected that the results of this study would suggest how to utilize serious games in learning and training. The purpose of this study is to totally understanding of serious games that made to achieve educational goal based on specific character of game in which make flow, goal achievement, satisfaction. For this, introduce the game-based learning model to apply education and training, and trends development of serious games.

In AI research Go is regarded as the most challenging board game due to the positional evaluation difficulty and the huge branching factor. MCTS is an exciting breakthrough to overcome these problems. The idea behind AlphaGo was to estimate the winning rate of a given position and then to lead deeper search for finding the best promising move. In this paper, using non-strategic MCTS we verified the fact that most pro players regard the best first move as Tengen (Origin of heaven) in $9{\times}9$ Go is correct. We also compared the average winning rates of the most popular first moves.

본 논문은 기존의 3D 게임 엔진에 실시간으로 상호 작용이 가능하고 3D MMORPG(Massive Multi-play Online Role flaying Game) 게임에 적합한 가상 공간을 표현하기 위한 필요한 기술을 분석하고 이를 활용하려 한다. 기존의 머드 게임에 3 차원 기술을 적용하고, 3 차원 물체를 모델링 하는데 있어서 메쉬나 버텍스, 혹은 폴리곤으로 사실적인 지형 처리와 렌드링 속도 향상을 위하여 3 차원 개체의 폴리곤을 동적으로 생성시키고 가시성 판단이나 충돌 검출을 위한 방법으로 Height field 처리 기법과 거리에 변화에 따라 다르게 모델링 된 데이터를 선택적으로 사용하는 CLOD(Continuous Level of Detail) 처리 기법과 입체 컬링 방법으로 옥트리를 이용하여 가상공간을 분해하기 위한 자료 구조로 사용한다. 거리의 변화에 따라 지형을 표현하는 vertex 들을 병합 또는 삭제함으로써 그 표현의 정도를 동적으로 달리 할 수 있는 CLOD 를 이용하여 카메라의 위치와 방향에 따라 적절한 폴리곤을 생성해 낼 수 있다. 본 논문은 기존의 3 차원 공간을 표현하기 위하여 사용되고 있는 옥트리 구조를 이용하여 공간을 분할하고, 이를 세부 수준으로 나누어 처리하기 위한 LOD(Level of Detail)와 CLOD 개념을 이용하여 외부지형을 폴리곤으로 표현하는 방법에 대한 처리 기법과 가시성 판단이나 충돌 검출을 위한 방법을 제시하려 한다.

본 논문에서는 메타버스 공간에서 패션 아이템 판매에 있어서 필수적이라 할 수 있는 온라인 가상 피팅 기술을 동작 인식 전용 디바이스가 아닌 일반 스마트폰 카메라를 활용하여 구현하는 기술을 제안한다. 가상 피팅 기술을 구현하기 위해서는 딥러닝 기법을 활용하여 입력 영상을 분석하고, 분석 결과를 토대로 인체의 전체 자세를 추정하며, 인체 사이즈의 근사값을 추출하는 과정들이 수행되어야 하는데, 현재의 스마트폰 컴퓨팅 환경은 이를 수행하기에 충분한 연산 성능을 가지지 못한다는 문제점을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 높은 비용이 요구되는 고부하 연산을 클라우드 서버를 통해 수행하는 서버 기반 프레임워크를 도입하여, 낮은 성능의 스마트폰으로도 고성능 연산이 가능한 서비스 구조를 확보하고 이를 통해 휴대성 높은 증강현실 기반의 가상 피팅 기술을 구현한다. 본 논문의 성과를 통해 메타버스 상거래의 활성화와 메타버스 본연의 의미에 충실한 가상 월드 구축에 기여할 것이라 기대한다.
