Place awareness is an essential for location-based services that are widely provided to smartphone users. However, traditional GPS-based methods are only valid outdoors where the GPS signal is strong and also require symbolic place information of the physical location. In this paper, environmental sounds and images are used to recognize important aspects of each place. The proposed method extracts feature vectors from visual, auditory and location data recorded by a smartphone with built-in camera, microphone and GPS sensors modules. The heterogeneous feature vectors were then learned by an ensemble learning method that learns each group of feature vectors for each classifier respectively and votes to produce the highest weighted result. The proposed method is evaluated for place recognition using a data group of 3000 samples in six places and the experimental results show a remarkably improved recognition accuracy when using all kinds of sensory data comparing to results using data from a single sensor or audio-visual integrated data only.

The appearance of Intelligent mobile and home appliance increased the using of not only various multimedia contents but also educational contents. Especially the growth of smart device such as smart phone, smart pad and smart TV, provided the environment which everyone can use educational content anytime, anywhere, any device. However many smart devices are hard to reuse the various educational contents because the devices and mobile os policies are not unify. In this paper, we suggest the design of NeS(N-Screen e-learning system) in order to solve this problem. NeS is consisted of User Management, Educational Content Management, Content Convert System and Interactive Management System. In this system, we use the HTML5 language to assure interoperability in various Smart Device Environment. Through NeS, we can achieve Content OSMU(One Source Multi Use) in various device environment and assure the continuity of the contents for using the educational contents more easily.

As Information & Communication Technology is developed in fast speed, the educational field undertakes many changes in utilizing Information Technology(IT). As the smart phone's educational utilization brings many positive effects, so many people are interested in such educational application programs. The e-textbooks or learning contents based on the web have shown some limits in being utilized as main learning materials in school field. So this study identified such limits, and suggested a new direction for professional education by integrating mobile and QR code technologies with existing textbooks to realize a new book-type E-Textbook model. And this study purposed for students to participate in their classes more easily through making open-education environment for students studying specialized subjects and by applying new teaching-learning methods inducing more interest in them. Of course, this study's ultimate purpose is to raise students' learning ability about specialized subjects, and further, to improve their self-directed learning abilities with increased interests in classes. As the result operating this model, it was found that this model had enough learning effect.

Recently, as smartphones are quickly spread to the general public, there are making a difference for use of information and communication methods. In this paper, mobile-based Performance Evaluation Management System(PEMS) that can make middle and high school teachers efficiently manage tasks of performance evaluation was implemented. That were applied to the performance evaluation of teachers. As a result, the tasks of teachers in the performance evaluation was reduced and teachers are able to concentrate on the guidance for students.

Excessive cognitive burdens caused by learning grammar should be reduced to cultivate high-level thinking skills in students through programing education. To this end, various educational programing languages have been developed. In recent years, block-based App Inventor that can used in real life have been introduced. This study intends to suggest an educational environment in which programing can be utilized as a leading problem solving tool by designing and producing an app that can be easily used by students in their real life. In particular, given the developmental phase of elementary school students, specific operational activities are important. For this reason, an App Inventor that can be proposed to enable dynamic interactions with the real world based on various smartphone sensors during the process of programing has significance as an educational programing language for elementary school students. In this regard, this study designed App Inventor programing education for elementary school students, which can be used in their daily life. The results of applying the education in fifth graders showed its positive effects on learning programing. LT collaborative learning where the students cooperated with each other, the theme of learning, which enables the utilization of various smartphone sensors in real life, and the app inventor may have generated and sustained the students' interest and attention.

증강현실은 가상현실과 달리 완벽한 가상공간이 아닌 실제 환경과 융합된 환경을 제공하여 줌으로써 수용자들과의 상호 작용성을 한층 더 강화시켜주고 있다. 게임을 비롯한 가상현실에 대한 컨텐츠의 활용은 최근 미디어 아트, 스마트 폰과 같이 매체와 결합을 하면서 증강현실 형태로 다양한 분야에 적용되고 있다. 특히 학습하고 있는 내용에 대한 직접적인 정보 제공과 콘텐츠 제공을 통한 실시간 상호 작용성이 가능해짐에 따라 이를 활용하고자 하는 교육적 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이러한 산업적 요구에도 불구하고 증강현실 시스템에 관한 선행된 연구들의 많은 부분이 리얼리티의 증가, 렌더링 및 트랙킹 기술, 입체 영상으로의 변환등과 같이 기술적인 부분으로 한정되어 있으며, 증강현실을 교육적으로 활용하기위한 연구는 미비한 편이다. 즉 기술적인 면에서 어떻게 적용할 것인가에 대한 연구가 선행되었을 뿐 수용자의 입장에서 적용 방법 및 적용 범위에 따른 다양한 논의가 부족한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 증강현실 경험을 최적화하기 위한 구현요소를 수용자 시각과 인식에 중점을 두어 파악하고 적용하고자 한다.

Most of the APP market today, it is biased in the field of games and entertainment. In contrast, market-share of the educational APP is very low. This phenomenon is due to two major problems. The first is a decrease in the reuse because of the test of simple pattern. The second is difficult to consider user-level range that was learned previously. In this case it is necessary for students to do additional effort. This paper, propose an educational intelligent educational APP to solve the problems described above and shows implementation results. This system analyzes the stored results that have been saved to determine the area of vulnerability. Time-based Re-validation module helps long-term memory of student. The proposed system in this way directly supports self-directed learning. Therefore, the students can be able to relearn weak area autonomously. It results in improved academic achievement.

Over the past few years, smart devices, including smartphones, have been continuously required by users based on portability. The performance is improving. Ubiquitous computing environment and sensor network are also improved. Due to various network connection technologies, mobile terminals are widely used. Smart terminals need technology to make energy monitoring more detailed for more stable operation during use. The smart terminal which is light in small size generates the power shortage problem due to the various multimedia task among the terminal operation. Various estimation hardwares have been developed to prevent such situation in advance and to operate stable terminals. However, the method and performance of estimating the remaining amount are not relatively good. In this paper, we propose a method for estimating the remaining amount of smart terminals. The Capacity Estimation of lithium ion cells for stable operation was estimated based on machine learning. Learning the characteristics of lithium ion cells in use, not the existing hardware estimation method, through a map learning algorithm using machine learning technique The optimized results are estimated and applied.

Many people are now enjoying mobile games using various smartphone platforms. However, we have to develop games separately for each smart device platforms so far. Cocos2d-x, a game development framework is released to solve this problem. As a multiplatform version of the existing Cocos2d, Cocos2d-x can make one source code run on various platforms. It is an open software that is able to be used by everyone, and when using it, mobile games can be developed easily based on C++ and OpenGL. In this paper, we implemented a PC laboratory decorating game application, named ILove501, using Cocos2d-x. The 501 is a room number of our PC lab. ILove501 includes an educational feature of solving quizzes in order to highlight positive effects of game. For implementation of a multiplatform game, ILove501 was developed in Windows and iOS environment at the same time, and we verified the results of the execution by porting on a variety of devices such as Android, iPhone, iPad and Galaxy Tab.
