This study aims to explore the impressive experiences of university students on YouTube media and to find ways to improve personal media as useful consumer information. 44 university students were selected, and data on the experience of using YouTube were collected and analyzed by applying the critical incident technique. As a result, the positive responses to personal media were derived from 'enhancing C2C information capabilities', 'consumer-centric usability', 'attractive information creators', 'a sense of the sameness', and 'fresh and entertaining information'. Negative responses were derived from 'spreading of harmful information', 'distrust in information creators', 'inducing excessive advertising and impulse buying', 'media addiction' and 'relative deprivation'. In addition, improvement of the personal media has been suggested. This study has differentiation and significance as a qualitative data for understanding consumer's perception and experience of personal media.

A critical incident technique(CIT) was employed to show the results of empirical findings regarding hotel services. The major purpose of this study was to describe and analyze service failures from the customers' point of view and thus suggest strategic implications for hotel service providers. Four-hundred sixteen service failure anecdotes from hotel customers were classified using Hoffman et al.'s(1995) approach. The CIT data showed the three major categories and eleven sub-categories and revealed that, in general, tangible recovery(e.g., upgrade, free meal, discount) was more effective than intangible one(e.g., explanation, canned apology, manager's apology). Interestingly, however, sincere apology seemed to be a better recovery strategy than other types of tangible recovery. Furthermore, the results showed that severity of service failure had its own impact on customers' perception regarding hotel's service recovery efforts. In particular, irrespective of service recovery, severity of service problem was negatively related to intention to repurchase. Managerial implications and future research agenda was also discussed.

The rapid development of digital technology is diversifying the fashion industry by influencing both the manufacturing processes and the characteristics of fashion products. Although various smart clothing technologies are being developed as part of the government's technology development policy, the number of smart clothing products available to consumers in stores remains very limited. To address this issue, this study analyzes the key attributes of smart clothing as expressed in consumer language. The CIT (Critical Incident Technique) research method was used, and data were collected through an online survey. The study focuses on identifying potential factors that may influence the development direction or strategy of smart clothing. By classifying past experiences and attitudes towards smart clothing into positive and negative categories, it was found that positive responses to smart clothing were heavily influenced by expectations from technology and convenience. Participants' experience with smart technology has had a positive impact on their evaluation of smart clothing. Consumers with negative attitudes towards smart clothing expressed expectations for new benefits resulting from technological development, and indicated that they would consider purchasing such clothing in the future when design and technology improve. Ultimately, this study provides a valuable reference for the development of smart clothing products in Korea by analyzing consumer experiences and acceptance conditions towards smart clothing.

With the recent emergence of smart tourist cities, premium mobility is being considered an important means of transportation in the tourism. However, there has been insufficient research conducted on the experience of premium mobility among its users. Accordingly, this study used CIT to analyze the components of the user experience of customers who used premium mobility. In order to specifically identify the factors that make up the premium mobility experience, 366 cases of satisfaction and 13 cases of dissatisfaction were collected through a total of 273 online surveys. As a result of the study, based on the customer's experience using premium mobility, CIT was applied to derive 6 categories and 9 sub-factors that constitute the perception of premium mobility. In particular, this study is different from existing studies in that convenience was added as a new category out of the 6 categories, and wide ride comfort and high price were derived as new sub-factors among the 9 sub-factors. Because of this, it has academic significance. Therefore, if scales suitable for quantitative research are developed based on the derived constructs, they could be widely applied to various topics related to premium mobility in the tourism field.

The cyclic debugging approach often fails for message passing parallel programs because they non-deterministic characteristics due to message race conditions. This paper identifies the MPI events that affect non-deterministic executions, and then converts the concurrent execution to the sequential one that is controlled in order to make it equivalent to a reference execution by keeping their orders of events in two executions identical. This paper also presents an efficient algorithm for the causal distributed breakpoint which is initiated by any sequential breakpoint in one process, and restores each process to the earliest state that reflects all events that happened causally before the sequential breakpoint. So a cyclic debugging approach can be used in debugging MPI parallel programs as like as in debugging sequential programming environments.

Spatial events are predictable using data mining classification algorithms. Decision trees have been used as one of representative classification algorithms. And they were normally used in the classification tasks that have label class values. However since using rule ranking methods, spatial prediction have been applied in the spatial prediction problems. This paper compared rule ranking methods for the spatial prediction application using a decision tree. For the comparison experiment, C4.5 decision tree algorithm, and rule ranking methods such as Laplace, M-estimate and m-branch were implemented. As a spatial prediction case study, landslide which is one of representative spatial event occurs in the natural environment was applied. Among the rule ranking methods, in the results of accuracy evaluation, m-branch showed the better accuracy than other methods. However in case of m-brach and M-estimate required additional time-consuming procedure for searching optimal parameter values. Thus according to the application areas, the methods can be selectively used. The spatial prediction using a decision tree can be used not only for spatial predictions, but also for causal analysis in the specific event occurrence location.

Recently, the constructions of widening bridges or new bridges are often undergoing as a part of road widening because traffic volumes are rapidly increasing caused by fast-growing population and urbanization. But in general, there is no rational decision process and specification to justify the validity of the bridge widening. Moreover, there are also numerous events including various uncertainties involved in widening bridges. In this paper, therefore, a decision making model is proposed for widening bridges using decision tree based on quantitative LCC analysis considering a variety of uncertainties for the rational and practical approach to a quantitative decision making for alternatives.
