외부 데이터베이스를 사용해서 서비스하는 스마트폰 어플리케이션은 네이티브 앱과 모바일 웹을 병행하여 서비스 한다. 일반적인 어플리케이션 환경에서는 외부 데이터베이스에 리소스 및 연산 결과 등의 모든 정보를 담아 두고 접근하여 활용하는 방식을 사용하였다. 반면에 스마트폰 어플리케이션 환경에서 네이티브 앱을 활용하면 디바이스 내부에 외부 데이터베이스의 정보 및 리소스를 저장하여 활용한다. 이 경우 네이티브 앱에서 연산을 수행하고 변경되는 데이터가 발생하면 외부 데이터베이스에 접근하여 업데이트를 수행한다. 그 이유는 병행 접근이 가능한 서비스의 경우 차후에 현재 접근한 네이티브 앱이 아닌 모바일 웹으로 접근하였을 때를 대비해서 최근의 데이터를 항상 유지해야 하기 때문이다. 많은 사용자를 보유한 서비스의 경우 빈번히 발생하는 데이터 업데이트 문제로 많은 자원 소모가 발생된다. 본 논문에서는 앞서 언급한 문제를 해결하고 네이티브 앱과 모바일 웹간의 데이터 연동을 위하여 외부 데이터베이스의 접근을 최소화 하는 기법을 제안한다. 실시간으로 사용자들끼리 정보를 주고받아 상호작용하는 서비스의 빈도가 상당히 낮거나 없는 스마트폰 어플리케이션 환경에서는 서버 접근을 최소화 하는 것이 좋은 방법이다. 제안의 핵심은 네이티브 앱과 모바일 웹의 기본적인 접속 정보만 외부 데이터베이스에 업데이트하여 차후 접속하는 타입이 현재와 다른 경우에만 최근에 변경된 데이터를 외부 데이터베이스에 업데이트하여 서버의 부하를 최소화 하는 것이다. 이 기술을 활용하면 서비스 업체의 경우 서버 유지비용을 낮출 수 있으며 사용자는 빈번히 일어나는 서버와의 통신에 소요되는 비용 및 끊김 현상으로 인한 불편함을 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This study explores unified service experience to boost O2O services. Previous studies on service management and marketing only focused on customer experience in offline stores, while prior works on information systems looked only at the experience of services in mobile applications. In this vein, this study took into accounts the characteristics of offline stores and the benefits of their mobile applications. Moreover, the final dependent variable was share of wallet to measure customer's expenditure within the category. The theoretical model was tested based on 219 consumers who frequently visit Starbucks and use its mobile application. PLS method was applied to analysis the research model and hypotheses. The analysis results showed that customer satisfaction about offline store is not significantly related to share of wallet, while satisfaction about mobile application plays a significant role in enhancing share of wallet. Hedonic and social benefits were found to have significant effects on satisfaction about mobile application. The analysis results help establish service marketing and strategies to enhance the unified customer experience of O2O service.

무선 환경에서는 모바일 기기의 이동 혹은 링크의 충돌, 부족한 대역폭등 모바일 기기의 외적 환경 변화에 의해 무선 링크의 단절이 빈번하게 일어나는데, 링크의 단절은 네트워크 자원을 사용하는 어플리케이션의 에러로 이어진다. 이러한 무선 환경의 단절을 어플리케이션이 알 수 있다면, 링크의 단절로 인한 어플리케이션의 에러를 방지 할 수 있게 된다. 본 논문에서는 어플리케이션이 무선 링크에 적응할 수 있도록 링크의 상태 정보를 판단 및 예측할 수 있는 dynamic watermark 기반의 상태 정보 추적 알고리즘을 제안한다.

Mobile Devices, which are developed with the fast growing of the Internet, have flexible internet accessibility and can access the network anywere so that they can execute software applications. However, it is very challenging to deploy highly complex applications on mobile devices since they have limited resources. To overcome the limitation, researches on applying a concept of services to mobile applications have been proposed. Android is one of the popular mobile platforms and is designed to effectively execute mobile applications on the mobile devices having limited resources. Since service-based Android applications, which adopt a concept of services and Android platform, invoke remote services and are built with Android-specific components, they are much different from traditional software applications. Consequently, it is not straightforward to apply object-oriented (OO) analysis and design methods to developing service-based Android applications, although they have been frequently applied to developing traditional applications. In this paper, we present a process to develop service-based Android mobile applications, which extends a traditional OO development process. First, we raise design issues to be considered in developing service-based Android applications. Then, to solve the issues, we present detailed guidelines for essential phases of OO-based development process that are customized to service-based Android applications. Finally, to show applicability of the process, we perform a case study. The proposed design process is effectively utilized as a set of guidelines to develop service-based Android applications more systematically and effectively.

The updates in the mobile application market have been widely used as strategic marketing tools. It has been used to (i) improve the visibility of an application, (ii) enhance the value of an applicationand strengthen the loyalty of current users, and (iii) expand the market by adding additional features or functions. A number of studies and anecdotal evidence have highlighted the importance of these updates in the mobile application market. However, not all updates in the mobile application market have been successful. Snapchat, for instance, lost 3 million users in three months after it rolled out a major update in November 2017. In this study, we investigate the impact of updates on the usage patterns of users in the mobile application market using MAU (Monthly Active Users), usage frequency, and usage time that we collected from a company that provides mobile application usage statistics.

As technology progresses, the supply and use of smartphones has become increasingly popular and has significantly transformed modern life. However, users still feel uncomfortable running some mobile apps, as many are created without a thoughtful consideration of usability. Usability evaluations involve several methodologies to identify specific problems in light of various principles. Although usability testing was initially centered on physical services, it has gradually evolved to consider user satisfaction as its main concern. Public transportation applications should be accessible to everyone, and studies should focus on the user's perspective. However, previous user surveys have concentrated on applications' technical aspects or visual design. As a result, there has been a lack of general usability evaluations. This study aimed to evaluate the usability of mobile transportation applications in real life, with a focus on public transportation in Seoul. All the participants were asked to complete a task, an in-depth interview, and a questionnaire survey. In summary, the results suggest that users do not find inappropriate information attractive when it does not satisfy their purpose of use, but rather tend to consider it as interference.
