Patient's trust in their physician is crucial for relationship between patients and their doctors, treatment outcomes such as satisfaction and adherence or revisits. The purpose of this study is to investigate the meaning of trusting the doctor in the doctor - patient relationship and to examine it through the multidimensional measurement tools. Using the convenience sampling method, 328 respondents in their 20s or older who had visited the hospital within 6 months were used as the analysis data. As a result of the research, it is difficult to define the meaning of the patient's trust in the doctor, but it can be summarized as having at least four meanings. First, the doctor should listen carefully to the patient's story and show communication behaviors expressing interest and forming an atmosphere of dialogue. Second, the patient's health should be considered first to understand the patient and empathize with the patient. Third, it should be honest in the examination and procedures related to the treatment as well as the technical ability. Finally, we should try to cooperate with patients.

Anthropometry has been broadly explored in various fields including automobile industry, home electronic appliances, medical appliances and sports goods with aiming at reaching satisfaction to consumer's need and efficiency. However, current technologies to measure a human body still have barriers in which the methods mostly seem to be contingent on expensive devices such as scanner and digital measuring instruments and to be directly touchable to the body when obtaining body size.. Therefore, in this paper, we present a general method to automatically extract size of body from a real body image acquired from a camera and to utilize it into recommend systems including clothing and bicycle fitting. At first, Haar-like features and AdaBoost algorithm are employed to detect body position. Then features of body can be recognized using AAM. Finally clothing and bicycle recommending modules have been implemented and experimented to validate the proposed method.

The electronic commerce environment allows customers to search for information and purchase products and services via direct contact with internet markets. Purchasing through the internet is not a real experience of purchasing, but is based on some pictures, information and advertisements of products. To improve E-commerce environment in Iran, purchasing behavior of Iranian young adults in the internet shopping mall is analyzed in this study. The factors which influence the motivation of internet shopping and the selection of internet shopping mall is investigated, and statistical tests were applied between these factors and other variables such as gender, job, age and education. The results of the tests showed that there is a gender difference on one of the shopping mall selection factor (i.e., abundant information about products); also there is a gender difference on the one of the shopping motivation factor (i.e., possibility of comparing products). Besides, there is a job difference (student or non-student) on the factor of 'Purchase frequency per month'. Other facts are also found that Iranian consumers are not sure about a product's quality, so they refuse to buy products such as foods, clothes and other products. Additionally, they are dissatisfied about the safety of internet shopping malls.

팍스시스템은 의료 영상을 디지탈화한 시스템이다. PACS데이터는 초창기 CR(Computed Radiography)의 경우 10MB내외의 데이터를 발생하였으나 의료장비의 발전으로 인해 DB(Digital Radiography)는 20MB이상의 데이터를 발생하였다. 또 CT(Computed Tomography)의 경우 0.5MB데이터를 100Slice내외의 데이터를 발생하였으나, 현재는 Cardiac/PET 등의 CT는 Multi Frame을 지원하며 300~5000Slice이상의 데이터를 발생하게 됨에 따라 네트워크에 상당한 트래픽이 발생하여 병원 진료 환경에 심각한 영향을 초래한다. 또한, 스마트 폰, 태블릿 pc등의 발전으로 인해 많은 사용자들은 실시간 또는 멀티미디어와 같은 데이터 표현 방식으로 팍스 데이터를 보길 원할 것이며, 팍스 시스템 또한 그러한 요구조건을 만족시키기 위해 발전하고 있다. 병원에서 사용하는 네트워크는 인터넷 서비스의 모토인 best effort방법을 일반적으로 사용한다. 이러한 데이터 전송방식은 진료에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 팍스 데이터의 전송에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 특히 네트워크의 트래픽이 제한적인 환경에서 높은 대역폭을 요구하는 멀티미디어 팍스 데이터를 다수의 사용자들이 전송받기 원하면 지연시간으로 인해 원활한 진료진행을 방해 받을 수 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 네트워크 개발자들은 QoS라는 개념을 도입하였고, 여러 계층에서 QoS를 보장하기 위한 연구가 진행되였다. 일반적으로, 네트워크에서 QoS를 지원하기 위한 여러가지 형태의 연구들을 조사하고, 분산 시스템을 제어하기 위한 DDS 미들웨어에 대한 연구를 기반으로 병원 네트워크에서 적용 방안을 설계하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증함으로써 새로운 형태의 병원 네트워크를 제안하고자 한다.

Supporting of the user-wanted teaching&learning functions is an important factor to improve the learning effects in a e-learning system. However, most methods are not enough to refer a model for supporting a teaching&learning function in a planning, development, operation, and evaluation. Accordingly, we propose the specified reference model for supporting a teaching&learning function in the web-based e-learning system. To verify the validity of the proposed system, we consulted the students experienced in e-learning system. As a results, The proposed specified reference model can be expected more $11%{\sim}23%$ effectiveness improvement than that of their experienced in the previous system. Also, as the pre-evaluated results using the teaching&learning services supporting degree by the proposed reference model, those measurements are very similar to the services requirement degree of their experienced in e-learning system.
