In this research, a design of mobile web magazine based on Kansei engineering is studied. Following the procedure of Kansei engineering, we executed user survey to discover latent emotion elements in mobile web magazine, which were 'attractive', 'open', and 'unique'. Corresponding design elements were found to be slide design, text layout, and proportion of image. The methodology of universal design was adopted to improves on those design elements so that the proposed design can be applicable to wide range of users. We could verify the potential of the proposed design method through expert interviews on the developed prototype mobile web magazine.

Elicitation of design concepts is the most important process in web-site design, but it is not an easy task to average designers. In this paper, we have analyzed most of the good web designs and classified them into seven large categories mainly based on design elements. This framework will give a guidance to average designers to easily tackle the elicitation process of web design concepts.

This study is aiming for make people understanding the importance of animation as a compulsory subject in designing World Wide Web. Specifically analyses of the basic theories and concepts of animation are given in the study to help web designer can get advantages from them. Few examples of some common factors which is being shared by both traditional animations and animations in web design. Highlighted issue in this study, however, is that we do not have many web sites organised by one who has proper animation training. This is underlined as a reason of imperfect web design we are able to see recently. As a proposal of solution, you'll see the training methods of animation, to have well planned web designs.

This paper mainly focuses on the design factors of a website targeted at shopping mall websites in China and Korea. We formulated 15 different hypotheses regarding how those design factors are different. The targeted websites are "Gmarket" in Korea and "Taobao" in China. The selected design factors of a shopping mall website are (1) color and design, (2) photo, graphic, and font size, (3) the clarity of information delivery, (4) website structure, (5) screen balance, (6) product display, (7) product harmony, (8) a form of font and icon, (9) visual atmosphere, (10) differentiated color, (11) interesting words, (12) technical skills, (13) entire visual design and atmosphere, (14) navigation, (15) search function for products or information. As a result of analyzing the result using the SAS 9.2 package tool, we figured out that there was a difference between design factors. Additionally, we analyzed this difference and suggested a strategy to design the effective shopping mall web sites.

With the increasing number and variety of internet users as well as the development of internet technology, web contents have been taking a more comprehensive, integrated, and practical form. This change has brought to our attention the importance of the information architecture and menu design, both of which are required for the users to navigate vast amount of data promptly, correctly and easily for effective communication in the web sites. In this study, web sites were categorized by the service levels provided to the users, and sampling was performed accordingly. Then, information architecture, the layout and the presentation of the menu design were analyzed. The result of the analysis show that there are distinguishable characteristics in how the menus were expressed and designed, and that these characteristics reflect the users' characteristics in the web interface menu design. With the result of this study, we present a guideline for information architecture and web interface menu design, which reflects user characteristics thereby strengthening usability. Using this guideline, we expect the development of web interface design which should support more efficient communication on the web.

New design method has been required for web designers to grasp the proper emotion, impression, and feeling of a web site and reflect these elements in web design. It is certain that such a new methodology can be a useful design tool, although web designers have only relied on their intuition and experience to induce users to perceive specific emotion of web sites. In this study, Kansei Engineering Type Ⅰ (Nagamachi, 2002 and Park, 2000) method was applied to develop the methodology. One hundred thirty six web sites believed to convey emotions effectively were first selected by recommendation of professional web designers and twenty two web sites were finally chosen and evaluated using questionnaire. The web sites were then objectively and quantitatively assessed by measuring the degree of utilization of the design elements, balance, overall density, and homogeneity. We examined the cause-and-effect between the results of emotional and quantitative analysis by multiple regression and introduced the design methodology based on the examination. The research method and procedures applied to this study would be applicable to design studies related to the emotional inducement.

This thesis is designed to investigate the relationship of Web Multimedia design. Web sites are needed to approach the lot of ways that increase the user intuitive lay over communicating information nowadays. In the digital era of today, multimedia is composed of such various elements as text, image, sound, animation, video. The method of the thesis is a research questions as this follow. First, the structuring element of the web site type was classified by a form and the contents in the web site. These types in this classified web site are HTML, flash and mixed type. Second, to study this thesis, we made up pose a questionnaire to students in the university as th method of random sampling. The goal of this survey is that user is how to understand about the web multimedia design. Results of analysis may be summarized as follows: 1) It was the image design in the NIKE web site that there would be evaluated the best design effected by flash, and it is finding that the NIDE web site will need more supporting Information, Interactive design through this studies. 2) It was information that there would be evaluated good design effect by text and image in SAMSUNG web site. Based on HTML, SAMSUNG need supporting motion image design by this studies. In conclusion, this thesis suggests that the each web medias should be constructed by the different web design component, according to information, Interactive, image design of web site.

최근 복합적인 기능을 가지고 있는 스마트폰의 확산으로 모바일 웹 시장이 빠르게 확장되고 있다. 모바일 웹은 데스크탑PC 웹과는 달리 화면이 작고 사용자가 손으로 아이콘을 선택하기 때문에 사용자들이 데스크탑PC 웹에서 사용하던 아이콘을 그대로 모바일 웹에 적용하여 사용하기에 모바일 웹서비스를 위한 GUI디자인의 연구의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 데스크탑PC 웹과 모바일 웹의 아이콘 분석을 위하여 이론적 고찰과 함께 국내 포털사이트 5곳-구글, 네이버, 다음, 야후, 파란-을 대상으로 데스크탑 PC 웹과 모바일 웹의 아이콘을 내용방식과 표현방식으로 비교 분류하였다. 아직 모바일 웹의 아이콘을 데스크탑PC 웹에서 사용하고 있는 아이콘을 그대로 사용하는 포털사이트들이 많았지만 몇몇 포털에서는 모바일 웹 사용자를 고려하여 아이콘을 별도로 제작하는 사례들을 볼 수 있었다. 즉 모바일 웹의 사용성을 높이기 위해서 사용자가 작은 화면에서 아이콘을 보고 선택하는 사용 환경을 고려한 GUI디자인이 필요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.
