The demand of ubiquitous home network system is rapidly increasing in Korea as each construction enterprise makes a huge effort to introduce it to apartment complex. However, the design of home network system is rather technology oriented than the customer focused. Lack of knowledge about customer needs is an obstacle in spreading the ubiquitous home network system to the market regardless of technology development. In this paper, we propose a HCSI(customer satisfaction index for home network system) using an SEM(structural equation model) where structural relationship among several factors influential on users' satisfaction is considered. This model enables to calculate the satisfaction index for target customer group so that one can provide necessary feedback information for improvement of the home network system used for each group.

Why does e-Learning service for individuals remain in the early development stage? To find the answers of this question, we adopted usefulness and intention to continued use as dependent variables based on technology acceptance model and inferred convenience, cost-effectiveness, social presence, interactivity, concentration, and procrastination as independent variables based on literature review and interview with e-Learning users. Convenience and cost-effectiveness of e-Learning tend to enhance usefulness and/or intention to continued use, while lack of social presence, interactivity, and concentration of e-Learning and academic procrastination tend to hinder usefulness and/or intention to continued use. To prove this research model, we used a data set collected from the survey. The respondents of survey were the undergraduate students who used voluntarily e-Learning. Data analysis was conducted using 275 respondents by partial least square. The analysis result of causal relation indicated that convenience and cost-effectiveness influenced both usefulness and intention to continued use, and that cost-effectiveness and concentration influenced only intention to continued use. But, interactivity and procrastination did not influence usefulness and intention to continued use.

Analysis of social media such as Twitter can yield interesting perspectives to understanding human behavior, detecting hot issues, identifying influential people, or discovering a group and community. However, it is difficult to gather the data relevant to specific topics due to the main characteristics of social media data; data is large, noisy, and dynamic. This paper proposes a new algorithm that dynamically selects the seed nodes to efficiently collect tweets relevant to topics. The algorithm utilizes attributes of users to evaluate the user influence, and dynamically selects the seed nodes during the collection process. We evaluate the proposed algorithm with real tweet data, and get satisfactory performance results.
