Companies and consumers are highly interested in online activities such as word-of-mouth(W.O.M) as marketing paradigm moved to online context. In this study, the research identified major variables affecting product review reference rate online and analyzed the difference based on those variables. According to the results, remarkable differences were discovered in four variable such as 'brand reference', 'review symbol', 'affirmation' and 'information offering'. In addition, the researcher found 'brand reference' and 'information offering' are most important factors deciding review reference rate using regression tree analysis method. Based on the results, the practical implications and further research directions for utilizing consumer online W.O.M were discussed.

The purpose of this study is to analyze an adequate deployment of fire service force to be prepared to respond appropriately and effectively in Korea by settlement pattern. In order to examine the deployment of fire service force by the present standard, we analyzed the logical basis and the deployment of fire service force by city and province. We also classified clusters for settlement pattern through the statistical methods and raised several points for the existing deployment model of fire service force by the classified settlement pattern. As a result, it was confirmed that the deployment of fire service force by the settlement pattern was irrelevant to fire service need.

Simulation of the target-scattered echo requires the understanding of scattering mechanism at the highlight points. In this paper, the basic assumption of Highlight Model is reviewed through the analyzed data obtained in the acoustic water tank experiment. The analysis shows that the scattering mechanism involves pulse elongation and frequency shift as elements of target-scattered echo, and that the internal structures affect the temporal response of the target-scattered echo significantly. The band-limited impulse response or Green's function due to the diffraction from highlight points of internal structures is not mere delta function, but acts like a filter, which causes frequency shift and is elongated in time.

Despite the growth of research interest into electronic commerce, there is still little information available on the ways in which an electronic commerce can be successfully developed. This study reports a set of success factors for electronic commerce, specifically some important implications for managers of internet shopping mall area in Korea. In this study it is found that trust on shopping mall and delivery are very important to increase purchase intention of customer. In addition, the result of this study shows that price and ease of use and loading time and error tolerance are very important to increase purchase intention.

High-frequency electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation phenomena associated with borehole ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys are complex. To improve the understanding of governing physical processes, we present a finite-difference time-domain solution of Maxwell's equations in cylindrical coordinates. This approach allows us to model the full EM wavefield associated with borehole GPR surveys. The algorithm can be easily implemented perfectly matched layers for absorbing boundaries, frequency-dependent media, and finite-length transmitter antenna.

The purpose of this study is to find out implications which can be useful for the development of user empowerment and involvement in Korean disability services. Suggested implications are based on the earlier studies about the concept and areas of user involvement. In the theoretical review, this study compared several terminologies related to user involvement. For the depth explanation, this study described wide range of earlier studies. In addition to these descriptions, this study is exploring to show integrated theoretical framework including diverse areas, major initiatives, participation levels, models of purpose on user involvement. And to grasp ostensive understanding on specific mechanisms on participation practice, this study discussed various issues on basic assumptions, areas of involvement and supportive alternatives. Based on these theoretical examination, this study introduced concrete tasks related to policy, service organization, professional education and research to activate user participation in Korean disability services.

본 연구에서는 사용성 테스트와 사용자 설문조사 단계를 거쳐 고연령계층 사용자를 고려한 통합 리모컨 버튼 레이아웃을 도출하여 고연령층의 사용편의성이 반영된 리모컨의 사용성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 일차적으로 신체, 인지심리적인 고연령층의 인간요소(human factor)들을 추출한 다음, 고연령계층 중 연령대별 남녀 사용자를 모집하여 현재 사용되는 기존의 리모컨으로 사용자에게 과제를 부과하여 사용성 테스트와 설문조사를 실시하였다. 사용성 테스트 결과를 중심으로, 통합 리모컨 버튼 레이아웃 디자인 시 반영되어야 할 필수 기능 버튼의 도출과, 버튼 배열의 최적화된 모델을 제시 할 수 있었다. 또한 이러한 과정을 통해 UI 디자인 시 지켜져야 할 세가지 요소인, 연관있는 기능의 동일요소 부여로 동작의 상호 의사소통을 고려해야한다는 것(유사성)과 유사기능간 근접배치로 사용자가 동작할 수 있는 버튼을 쉽게 이해하도록 해 주어야 한다는 것(근접성), 그리고 예상되는 연속 동작의 기능을 동선을 고려해서 배치해야 한다는 것(연속성)을 확인하였다. 마지막으로, 한 가지 기준에 의한 일률적인 버튼 배열보다 사용자의 요구사항과 인지적 한계를 반영한 그룹핑을 고려한 버튼 배열이 사용성을 높이는 중요한 요인이라는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Today, as potential uses of the Internet continue to grow, e-learning in university an education course has taken on an important role. Accordingly, to provide good e-learning services, university officials attempt to develop high quality educational content in their courses. In this study, we investigate e-learning adoption by students using the extended technology acceptance model (TAM). In particular, trust in the online environment plays an extremely crucial role in student willingness to adopt e-learning. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the relationships of perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitude, and actual use on students' level of trust using a partial least squares (PLS) approach. This study suggests valuable implications for developing e-learning strategies and implementing e-learning.

Dimensional analysis is an important tool for developing mathematical models of physical phenomena in order to understand the effects of laser shock peening(LSP) process parameters. By using the Bucking ${\prod}$ theorem, we proposed an applicable dimensional analysis method to verify the effects of LSP process parameters on the residual stresses. Furthermore, by using finite element analysis, we proposed a finite element method of LSP and discussed various parameters, such as peak pressure, pressure pulse duration, laser spot size, and multiple LSPs.

본 논문에서는 정신분석과 두 종류의 정서이론, 인공지능과 신경회로망 그리고 퍼지 페트리 네트 등을 사용하여 사람의 인지과정을 모방한 인지모형시스템을 개발하였다. 먼저 프로이트의 정신분석을 사용하여 정신의 구조를 그래프로 표현한 후 이것을 '마음의 지도'라 명명하였다. 인지모형시스템을 구현하기 위한 첫 번째 작업으로 동적인 추론을 할 수 있는 지능 모델인 KNBN(Kohonen Network based Belief Network)을 제안하였다. KNBN으로 표현한 마음의 약도 내에서 연결강도 값으로 사용할 상대적 데이터를 만들기 위한 근거로서는 '정서'를 사용하였는데, 플라칙의 진화론에 근거한 정서이론과 오토니의 인지적 정서이론을 결합하여 데이터로 만든후 이 수치를 연결강도로 사용하였다. 이 두 개의 정서이론을 결합하는 알고리즘을 만들기 위해 페트리네트를 변형한 퍼지 페트리네트를 제안하였다. 또한 오토니가 주장하는 정서의 인지구조를 사람들이 그대로 이해하는지 여부를 알기 위해 대학생 100명을 대상으로 설문지를 사용해 정서의 인지구조에 대해 조사하였고 그 결과 값에 근거하여 두 개의 정서이론 결합 알고리즘을 만들었다. 이것으로 정서 발화에 대한 상대적인 수치가 산출되었고, 이것을 KNBN으로 표현한 마음의 약도에 결합하기 위해 0과 1사이의 수치로 정규화 하였다. 이렇게 정규화된 데이터를 이용해 인지 모형 시스템을 개발하였다.
