The urinalysis, which is universally accessible to the general public, has disadvantages of being less objective using sight and purchasing a separate portable urinalysis machine. However, due to the high penetration rate and performance improvement of smartphone created by the development of mobile communication technology, research on urinalysis services using smartphone has been conducted. In this paper, a new urinalysis screening application based on smartphone was developed by supplementing the limitations of the previously studied urinalysis services. The key technology of the application is urinalysis recognition algorithm and urinalysis pad color determination algorithm through image-processing and contour detection. In order to confirm the performance of the developed application, urinalysis strip was photographed and analyzed from various backgrounds and angles.

MVC(Model-View-Controller) architecture is well-known for high maintainability and it makes efficient development possible. Recently, it has been applied in many fields such as web, desktop and mobile applications. Therefore, effective testing for this architecture is strongly needed. Although much research has been done, there was not much efforts for exploiting MVC architecture in GUI testing. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a scheme for efficient and accurate GUI testing for MVC based applications. In this study we separate original state diagrams into view state diagram and model-controller state diagram. Then, we present a case study showing the effectiveness of our proposed scheme.

Along with increasing supplies of smart devices, a proliferation of context-aware applications is came. However, acquiring contexts through sensors requires considerable energy consumption. It has became big constraints on running many context-aware applications in mobile devices having limited battery capacity. Hence, energy-efficient methods for monitoring contexts are highly required. In this paper, we propose four context monitoring methods, analyse energy consumption in each method, and provide guidelines for applying the methods. It is effective to decrease energy consumption for monitoring contexts with applying the methods. To assess the proposed methods, we implement an application that is aware of a user's motion and show quantitative comparison between each of the methods.

Recently, the use of artificial intelligence technology including deep learning has become active in various fields. In particular, several algorithms showing superior performance in object recognition and detection based on deep learning technology have been presented. In this paper, we propose the proper direction for the implementation of mobile healthcare application that user's convenience is effectively reflected. By effectively analyzing the current state of use satisfaction research for the existing fitness applications and the current status of mobile healthcare applications, we attempt to secure survival and superiority in the fitness application market, and, at the same time, to maintain and expand the existing user base.

To prevent tire accidents, we developed an application that can check tire safety using the app-inventor and the bluetooth communication. The temperature sensor measures ambient temperature, the pressure sensor measures tire pressure, the laser sensor has a distance of more than 50mm, and an angle of 45° to measure for the optimal tire. We have developed an application that determines tire condition based on measured wear and tear levels, works through the Bluetooth module via App Inventor, and identifies tire condition and expected replacement condition on the user's mobile phone.

최근 분산자바기술의 발전에 따라 다양한 애플리케이션의 단위기능들은 어디서나 호출 가능한 서비스로 정의되고 있으며, 또한 이러한 서비스들은 새로운 애플리케이션을 구성하기 위한 단위기능으로 사용되고 있다. 특히 RMI, CORBA 등은 가장 널리 활용되고 있는 원격 메서드 또는 서비스 호출 프레임워크로 분산 자바애플리케이션 개발을 위한 중요한 기술이라 할 수 있다. 그러나 이러한 기술들은 모두 원격메서드 또는 서비스의 호출을 위해 클라이언트사이드에서 스텁을 활용하는 기술로, 스텝의 정적생성 및 동기화 필요성으로 인해 다소 사용자 편의성 및 서비스의 접근성이 저해되는 측면이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 스텁의 생성이 필요 없는 비스텁 방식의 효율적인 원격자바메서드 호출기법을 제시한다. 이 기법을 활용할 경우, 사용자 측면에서 별도의 스텁 없이 원격지의 서비스를 자유롭게 호출할 수 있어 사용자의 편의성 및 서비스 접근성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있으며, 원격 서비스 변경에 따른 동적 서비스 재구성 또한 지원할 수 있어 보다 유연한 애플리케이션 개발이 가능하다.

인간 생활의 편의를 위해 지능형 서비스 로봇에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있지만, 인간과 로봇이 상호간에 소통할 수 있는 인터페이스나 애플리케이션 등의 개발은 미흡한 상태이다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하고 지능형 서비스 로봇의 대중화를 위하여 사용자 중심의 애플리케이션을 제안한다. 사용자 애플리케이션은 각 시스템들의 정보를 분석하여 제어하는 부분을 담당하고, 사용자의 명령을 블루투스 통신을 통해 로봇에게 전달하며, 로봇의 위치데이터 및 영상정보를 사용자에게 보여준다. 제안 시스템을 통해 로봇에 대한 전문지식이 없는 사용자도 로봇을 쉽게 제어할 수 있으며, 관리자는 원격지에서도 제어 및 모니터링이 가능하여 시스템 관리의 편의성을 제공한다.

In the context of the number of Tablet PC users which increases rapidly, online shopping application has also been a corresponding rapid development. However, as a practical matter, the differences among the consumers' ability will affect the purchase of application for the realization of user needs. Therefore, shopping application in the GUI design to improve consumers use needs to be improved to meet the demands of different users. In view of this problem, this paper has carried on the related research on the GUI design of Tablet PC application, and fully considers the visualization image elements of information transmission, then analyzed the top five shopping application in Chinese market via three visual elements - icon, label and color. In addition, it conducted a questionnaire which based on the object of Tablet PC shopping application Chinese users. Consequently, what obtained is, based on the survey findings, the GUI design proposal which reasonable reflects the shopping application with functionality and designability. Through the research results of this paper, we can get the conclusion that the three kinds of visual GUI elements-icon, label and color- have the influence on the user's usability. In addition, this study can be expected as a reference in the shopping software GUI design.

This study examined the satisfaction difference in the aspects of awareness, information quality, and availability in healthcare applications according to smartphone user's characteristics. Data collection was conducted between September 17th and September 21st 2014 on the 193 people who had used healthcare applications, and the data collected were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, One-way ANOVA, and Kruskal-Wallis test using SPSS WIN 20.0. Differences in satisfaction of healthcare application were observed according to the general characteristics, and according to age, education level, and income, as well as for healthcare application use characteristics, according to operation system, total use period, the number of installed healthcare applications, the sources of main information, use frequency, and reasons of no use. To establish strategies for the effective spread of mobile healthcare and development and distribution of healthcare applications, it will be necessary to confirm smartphone users' characteristics and it is important to reflect them in the strategies. In addition, it is necessary to develop and implement a range of strategies to ceaselessly induce the users' motives of use and to improve their degree of satisfaction to secure the constant use of developed health care applications.

Consumers should look at the ingredients of cosmetics or food for their health and purchase them after checking whether they contain allergy-causing ingredients. Therefore, this paper aimed to develop an artificial intelligence-based smartphone application for automatically recognizing the ingredients displayed on a curved container and delivering it to consumers in an easy-to-understand manner. The app needs to allow consumers to immediately comprehend the restricted ingredients by recognizing the ingredients' words in the cropped image. Two major issues should be solved during the development process: First, although there were flat containers for cosmetics or food, most were curved containers. Thus, it was necessary to recognize the ingredient table displayed on the curved containers. Second, since the ingredients' words were displayed on the curved surface, the transformed or line-changed words also needed to be recognized. The proposed new methods were enough to solve the above two problems. The application developed through various tests verified that there was no problem recognizing the ingredients' words contained in a cylindrical curved container.
