This is a user experience study of factors that should be considered in designing home appliances experience service. Untact services are emerging, but the development of home appliances sector is in early stage. Based on the six factors of Stephen P. Anderson's Creating Pleasurable Interface Model, this study conducted surveys, 1:1 in-depth interviews, and participation observations to measure and analyze user experience. In this study, I compared 4060s and 2030s's user experience in that the untact services raise the digital alienation among middle-senior-aged. As a result, there were significant differences between the two, including the opposite satisfaction in terms of reliable, usable and pleasurable factors. I hope that this study will be of strategic help in designing future home appliance experience services.

The purpose of this study is to research on usability of Seoul Bike focusing on seoul citizens over-50s. Before the test, I researched Seoul Universal Design Guideline's background, purpose, principle and range through literature review. Then I did two tests based on re-establishment of the existing principle to fit the public service. First, I have noticed that using the service through an application was difficult for seoul citizens over-50s even if they have NEEDS for using Seoul Bike according to the survey. Next, I drew the result from User Task Evaluation Analysis. Due to the low app usability(the main point of the service) and accessibility and usability status was rate low, but the overall service process was comfortable and convenience. I expect this study will be a good resouce for public service design.

K-pop performances are in the center of the contemporary popular arts and cultural industry, and implicitly reveal the way that our society views the body and the time-space. This paper explores the motif of automaton in the K-pop idol group ShiNee's stage performance of 'Everybody' and the song's music video. At the same time, the paper relates the motif with the automaton of the digital era-that is, the sense of time-space in digital animations. The motif of the automaton has its origins in the mythical forms related to the animation, and is related to the human desire to create humanlike forms. Also, this motif is closely linked to the aesthetical meaning of the animation, being played in different variations since the beginning of the animation. This paper explores the tradition of automaton motif in culture and the arts, and look into the cases in which the history of the relationship between the media and body performance harboring the automaton motif has been displayed in 19th century ballet or modern body expressional arts. In addition, this paper will compare and analyze representative contemporary works that reveal digital viewpoint and the choreography of 'Everybody', and compare other works that stand in similar aesthetic tradition, investigating the influence of digital animation reflected in the K-pop idol and its aesthetic and social undertones.

Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, the world is facing the most serious crisis since the Great Depression, and is facing a new paradigm of the Untact era. Korea has also announced various policies and legal systems, including the 'Korean version of the New Deal', but it is conflicting between the use of information and the protection of information. In this paper, we derive thresholds by analyzing policies, statutes and technologies in the public cloud. Based on this, we propose to introduce the "Building a Nationwide Public Virtual Machine" as a key task to secure the next-generation national growth engine so that all citizens can use digital services in a secure and reliable environment with equal access to information. Through this, all citizens can use various digital new technology services only with low-priced and low-specification terminals, and by establishing a dedicated center for information protection, we want to respond to rapidly increasing security threats. It also points out that the domestic cloud-related legal system only emphasizes the use of information while overlooking the importance of security, and suggests the right direction for the legal system to move forward.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how to express Surrealism techniques in Chris Landreth who is very famous for 3D short such as Ryan. The case works are focused on 'the end', Chris Landreth's early work. He set up situation of the absurd and describes human being's alienation in animation. A phase of social life is not only revealed with vivid colors and his own surrealism techniques but communication capacity of 3D animation is also shown. Digital Technology, reproducing impossible images is not all about 3D animation. As well as this, it is not far away the way of creating arts. 3D animation will be shown the new possibilities with extension and harmony of all kinds of arts expression.

실감형 콘텐츠는 정부가 발표한 미래성장동력에도 포함될 정도로 정부와 산업계의 뜨거운 관심을 받고 있는 분야입니다. 사실 실감형 콘텐츠란 하나의 기술 분야를 말한다기 보다는 인간의 감각 기관과 인지 능력을 자극하여 실제와 유사한 경험 및 감성을 느낄 수 있게 해주는 유형의 콘텐츠를 통칭하는 것입니다. 그래서 지금까지 경험한 평면적인 디지털 콘텐츠나 3D 콘텐츠보다 더 몰입감 있고, 신기하고, 새롭고, 재미있고, 기대되는 콘텐츠라고 할 수 있지요. 2000년대 들어 우리는 이미 공상과학 영화를 통해 실감형 콘텐츠의 모습이 어떤 것인지 간접적으로 경험해 왔고, 그러한 기술들이 최근에 콘텐츠의 모습으로 완성되면서 실제적인 경험을 하고 있습니다. 하지만 더 흥분되는 사실은 지금 우리가 경험하는 것은 아주 일부분의 맛보기일 뿐, 앞으로 소개될 콘텐츠들이 제공할 새로운 경험은 더 압권이 되겠지요. 최근 정부와 산학연의 실감형 콘텐츠 기술 개발은 많은 제약과 어려움에도 불구하고 매우 적극적으로 추진되고 있습니다. 국제 표준화 기구에서 치열하게 추진되는 표준 개발에도 국내 전문가들이 적극적으로 대응하고 있습니다. 이 특집에서는 실감형 콘텐츠에 대한 개념과 트렌드를 전문가 인터뷰를 통해 들어 보고, 실감형 콘텐츠를 구성하는 여러 가지 기술 중에서도 소비자들의 기대와 눈높이를 맞춰줄만 한 새롭고 기대를 모으는 것들을 살펴보고자 합니다. 앞으로 우리는 입체 공간에서 1인칭 시점으로 얼마나 실감나게 콘텐츠 속으로 빨려들어 갈 수 있을까요? 지금까지 경험한 콘텐츠 조작은 얼마나 새로워질까요? 내가 필요할 때 딱 맞는 콘텐츠를 바로 이용할 수는 있을까요? 우리가 이렇게 새로운 것으로 즐거울 때 혹시 소외되는 사람들이 있지는 않을까요? 분명 있겠지요. 그렇다면 어떻게 우리는 정보격차를 극복할 수 있을까요? 이러한 물음에 대한 전문가들의 의견을 들어보시기 바랍니다.

The aim of this study is to explore fathers' own expectations and experiences of fatherhood along with their views of what it meant to be a 'good' father. Qualitative methodologies were used; semi-structured in-depth interviews with 10 dual-earner fathers with young children. Interviewees overwhelmingly welcomed the opportunities offered to them by the new fatherhood model and supported a perceived cultural shift towards men and fathers being involved in, rather than detached from, family life. However tension and difficulty in living the ideal were also reported: gaps between perceptions and behaviors; struggle for traditional breadwinning role and caring; conflicts between selflessness and career and uninvolved in family decisions. Political and practical considerations are discussed, and the implications of this study for future research are identified.

This study focuses on the application of the data mining technique logistic regression analysis and decision tree analysis to the domestic public database called Korean Children Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS) to derive a series of important factors affecting the enhancement of life satisfaction of domestic youth. As a result, the general impact factors on life satisfaction for each grade were derived from logistic regression. Using decision tree analysis, we came to conclusions that those factors such as depression, overall grade satisfaction, household economic level, and school adaptation play crucial roles in affecting high school adolesscents' life satisfaction.

In these days mobile handsets have come to be used at almost every user. The performance improvement of mobile devices and networks have made this trend possible. As a great variety of mobile applications are published, the necessity of running large-scale mobile applications becomes greater than before. To accomplish this, the existing researchers have developed mobile cluster computing libraries like Mobile-JPVM. In this paper, we implement a compute-intensive Animated GIF generating application and its cell phone viewer software using Mobile-JPVM library. We find out by the real execution of our softwares on the KTF handsets that they can sufficiently run on cellular phones. Our Animated GIF generator and its viewer are going to be commercially used for the mobile fashion advertisement systems.
