The importance of effective delivery of information in the mobile web is increasing in Korea, due to the growing number of smart-phone users. In this study, I took a look at the characteristics of mobile devices and the mobile web, and after researching Korea's portal websites' mobile web designs, we figured out the users' preferences of mobile web designs through surveys and interviews. To provide compressed information on a small screen, it is ideal for significant contents to show up in the state that does not require scrolling. Users preferred compact and neat designs, and menus that were made with icons that are easy to touch with fingers, in the mobile web. When receiving delivered information, users preferred not only texts but texts that were provided together with photograph images. If usability evaluations and examination of preferences are achieved together, I think it will serve as a mobile web guideline that enables efficient delivery of information in the mobile web.

t Global logistics companies are developing and introducing logistics systems to provide competitive logistics services. Especially as IT develops and mobile functions become more convenient, the Mobile TMS(Transportation Management System) is being introduced as a more convenient system for delivery workers and office managers. However, the success of such a system depends on the system developer who understand the site accurately and office managers and couriers who are using it in the field. The purpose of this paper is to understand which characteristics influence in exploiting new systems focusing on the attitudes of users who use the system daily, and we analyze it through the TAM(Technology Acceptance Model). According to the analysis result, when smart phone has become popular, users have concluded that usefulness is more significant than ease in acceptance of the systems. As a result, we draw suggestions that the focus should be on usefulness rather than ease of system at the stage of system developed.

In this study, we proposed a new model with ISOIA (Insect Search by Observation based on Insect Appearance) method based on observation by insect appearance to improve user satisfaction, and compared it with the ISBC and ISOBC methods. In order to test these three insect search systems with AHP method, we derived three evaluation criteria for user satisfaction and three sub-evaluation criteria by evaluation criterion. In the ecological environment, non-experts need insect search systems to identify insect species and to get u-Learning contents related to the insects. To assist the public the non-experts, ISBC (Insect Search by Biological Classification) method based on biological classification to search insects and ISOBC (Insect Search by Observation based on Biological Classification) method based on the inference that identifies the observed insect through observation according to biological classification have been provided. In the test results, we found the order of priorities was ISOIA, ISOBC, and ISBC. It shows that the ISOIA system proposed in this study is superior in usage and quality compared with the previous insect search systems.

As the eBook market grows fast recently, various eBook viewer solutions such as hardware viewers and software readers came out to the market. We can, however, hardly find mobile eBook interfaces for the reading disabled people who have difficulties in reading for their visual impairment or learning disabilities, or dyslexia. An eBook viewer interfaces for the reading disabled people should be carefully and distinctively designed because the reading disabled people cannot use normal versions of eBook viewer. In this paper, we suggest a eBook viewer interface model to make the reading disabled people read eBooks easily. Depending on the type of the reading disabled people: the full blind, the almost blind, the just learning disabled, our model provides an adaptive interface to make them read eBooks effectively. In addition, unlike the existing simple audio books, we also support annotation systems to make the reading disabled people interact with eBook viewer. To show the effectiveness of our model, we implemented an eBook viewer prototype on an android-based mobile device. We are sure that our model and implementation can make the reading disabled people, who is 10% of all the domestic people, read eBooks effectively.

This After the debut of 5G, our lives have changed a lot. In particular, the proliferation of wireless network services through smartphones and LTE has completely changed the existing mobile communication services that are limited to voice/text communication between individuals and individuals, and new innovative services have emerged in all aspects of personal and corporate activities. This study verified the relationship between the social characteristics of 5G services and users' willingness to use 5G services. It analyzed the influence relationship between independent variables (social reality, subjective norms), media variables (perceived usefulness) and dependent variables (use intention), set hypotheses, and identified the media effects of perceived usefulness. The measurement items of variables are defined, and the research model of 5G service usage intention is designed. A questionnaire survey was conducted on the measurement items for users who have experience in using 5G services. Based on this result, among the social factors of users of 5G services, social reality and subjective norms are suitable factors to improve users' intentions. And through this research we put forward the enlightenment, discussed the limitations of the research and future research directions.

The goal of this paper is to analyze the performance of a word autocomplete system for mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and PCs. The proposed system automatically completes a partially typed string into a full word, reducing the time and effort required by a user to enter text on these devices. We collect a large amount of data from Twitter and develop both unigram and bigram dictionaries based on the frequency of words. Using these dictionaries, we analyze the performance of the word autocomplete system and devise a keystroke profit rate and recovery rate as new evaluation metrics that better describe the characteristics of the word autocomplete problem compared to previous measures such as the mean reciprocal rank or recall.

최근 무선 네트워크 서비스의 수요가 증가함에 따라 낮은 비용, 간편한 설치 그리고 높은 대역폭 특성을 가지는 무선랜 (WLAN)을 기반으로 한 사내 네트워크 구성이 학교 및 기업을 중심으로 증가하고 있다. 이로 인해 사내 네트워크를 통한 랩탑 (Laptop), 넷북 (Notebook), 스마트 폰 (Smart Phone), 그리고 UMPC (Ultra Mobile Personal Computer)등 휴대용 단말을 이용한 스트리밍 서비스의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 하지만 무선랜 환경은 사용자 이동에 의해 핸드오버가 발생할 경우, 이동할 대상 네트워크의 혼잡 상태를 고려하지 않는다. 따라서 이동할 네트워크에 빠르게 적응하지 못함으로써 패킷 손실에 의한 서비스의 불연속성 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 핸드오버 이전에 이동 대상 네트워크의 혼잡 상태를 인지하여 전송률을 조절함으로써, 스트리밍 서비스의 불연속성 문제를 해결하는 적응적인 스트리밍 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다. 제안하는 시스템은 핸드오버 이전에 이동 대상 네트워크의 가용대역폭을 측정하여 혼잡 상태를 인지하고, 측정한 가용대역폭 값을 기반으로 전송하는 프레임의 수를 우선순위에 따라 차등적으로 조절하여 전송률을 조절하였다.

Since insects play important roles in existence of plants and other animals in the natural environment, they are considered as necessary biological resources from the perspectives of those biodiversity conservation and national utilization strategy. For the conservation and utilization of insect species, an observational learning environment is needed for non-experts such as citizens and students to take interest in insects in the natural ecosystem. The insect identification is a main factor for the observational learning. A current time-consuming search method by insect classification is inefficient because it needs much time for the non-experts who lack insect knowledge to identify insect species. To solve this problem, we proposed an smart phone-based insect identification inference system that helps the non-experts identify insect species from observational characteristics in the natural environment. This system is based on the similarity between the observational information by an observer and the biological insect characteristics. For this system, we classified the observational characteristics of insects into 27 elements according to order, family, and species, and proposed similarity indexes to search similar insects. In addition, we developed an insect identification inference prototype system to show this study's viability and performed comparison experimentation between our system and a general insect classification search method. As the results, we showed that our system is more effective in identifying insect species and it can be more efficient in search time.
