To evaluate the usability of a Kimchi refrigerator, we performed an evaluation test that consisted of an experiment and a post-hoc questionnaire survey. In this study, we focused on the older women who have less physical and cognitive ability than younger women. In physical usability, there was no significant difference between the older and the younger subject group. However, there was some significant statistical difference in the results of cognitive usability test. When the subjects debriefed their operations after finishing the experiment, the all subjects in the older group reported the difficulties in identifying the labels and icons in the control panel and in understanding operation sequences. Also, they couldn't learn and remember the operation procedures well. Based on the analysis of the video protocols, some causes of the problems were found and then several improvement ideas were suggested.

Voice Command systems are important means of ensuring accessibility to digital devices for use in situations where both hands are not free or for people with disabilities. Interests in services using speech recognition technology have been increasing. In this study, we developed a mobile writing application using voice recognition and voice command technology which helps people create and edit documents easily. This application is characterized by the minimization of the touch on the screen and the writing of memo by voice. We have systematically designed a mode to distinguish voice writing and voice command so that the writing and execution system can be used simultaneously in one voice interface. It provides a shortcut function that can control the cursor by voice, which makes document editing as convenient as possible. This allows people to conveniently access writing applications by voice under both physical and environmental constraints.

In the social information facilities with physical stacks, it is critical to arrange categories of knowledge since there should be conventional methods by which users and visitors can browse index of all sorts of media relating to their topics. The classical index system of knowledge has been developed with primitive libraries and museums and therefore the system can be addressed by analyzing typical cases of precedents. As the forth industrial revolution has emerged, there will be quite innovative approach to provide information to the public as well as the private. The coalition between knowledge and space has always been considered as essential characteristics that remind scholars of hierarchical layout of knowledge resources such as maps, books, documents and diverse specimens. This research assumes that the spatial layout of knowledge can be classified in terms of physical attributes, symbolic entities, and information media and it defines what coalition between knowledge and space is creative in order to enacting interactive dialogue among information navigators. The spaces in between the knowledges function as trasition areas where the index system informs and stimulates, where the interface between the different knowledges is optimized and therefore the library as the public facilities no longer dedicated to the text, but as an information space in which all sorts of media are distributed equally.

The main purposes of this study were (a) to analyze the research trend of educational use of tangible technology, (b) to identify tangible learning mechanisms, and potential benefits of learning with tangible technology, and (c) to provide references and future research directions. We conducted a systematic literature review to search for academic papers published in recent five years (from 2013 to 2017) in the major databases. Forty papers were coded and analyzed by the established coding framework in four dimensions: (a) basic publication information, (b) learning context, (c) learning mechanism, and (d) learning benefits. Overall, the results show that tangible technology has been used more for young learners in the kindergarten and primary school contexts mainly for science learning, to achieve both cognitive and affective learning outcomes, by coupling tangible objects with tabletops and desktop computers. From the synthesis of the review findings, this study suggests that the affordances of tangible technology useful for learning include embodied interaction, physical manipulations, and the physical-digital representational mapping. With such technical affordances, tangible technologies have the great potential in three particular areas in education: (a) learning spatial relationships, (b) making the invisible visible, and (c) reinforcing abstract concepts through the correspondence of representations. In conclusion, we suggest some areas for future research endeavors.

In this paper, we design and construct a high speed LAN(Local Area Network) using FDDI(Fiber Distributed Data Interface) and Frame Relay in order to support our multimedia communication services. A program of this communication network is divided into requirement analysis, design, establishment and test. First, we propose an optimal communication method that compares various network techniques in the requirement analysis phase. Second, we design the physical network configuration, secure method, and address in the LAN and WAN. Finally, we establish and test the communication devices and lines. Ultimately, we minimized mistakes and satisfied user requirements using this program. We constructed efficiently a high speed data communication network using FDDI and Frame Relay.

The aim of this research is to study and develop enabling technologies for home healthcare device with ubiquitous network. The motivation of this paper is to enable healthcare in home, to development the device for smart home health care. To achieve the aim, we must develop the prototype platform based on home gateways, distributed context user interface based on UPnP and support for information sharing with high speed power line communication and mobile infra-structures. And IPv6 is the base technology of this platform. In this paper, we concern that physical health, mental health and medical emergencies is all of home healthcare. With the smart device, we evaluate the connectivity, automatic information extraction and private data exchange and event driven message. The result of this paper is demonstration of smart device for ubiquitous communication in a healthcare application such as patient monitoring device and several information services. In conclusion, home healthcare will support more healthy and easy living for a human.

Artificial environments and spaces developed in 20th century provided conveniences and comforts and developed spatial thoughts of interior design. But it caused significant environmental estrangement due to environmental disruption and materialism. This caused raising necessity of emotional design in human life spatial design as liberation of human nature is discussed and interest in emotion among human natures is being enhanced. This study manages how emotional design is expressed in basic area of human, residential area. Emotional design is proceeding to the direction designing interface between human and environment considering human physical and psychological characteristics focused on correlation between human and interior space. Therefore through this study, meanings and effects of design considering user emotions are reviewed to materialize expressing factors for combining into actual design.
