  • SWMM and WASP5 were applied for pollutant loading estimate from watershed and reservoir water quality simulation, respectively, to predict estuarine reservoir water quality. Application of natural systems to improve estuarine reservoir water quality was reviewed, and its effect was predicted by WASP5. Study area was the Hwa-Ong reservoir in Hwasung-Gun, Kyonggi-Do. Procedures for estimation of pollutant loading from watershed and simulation of corresponding reservoir water quality were reviewed. In this study, SWMM was proved to be an appropriate watershed model to the nonurban area, and it could evaluate land use effects and many hydrological characteristics of catchment. WASP5 is a well known lake water quality model and its application to the estuarine reservoir was proved to be suitable. These models are both dynamic and the output of SWMM can be linked to the WASP5 with little effort, therefore, use of these models for reservoir water quality prediction in connection was appropriate. Further efforts to develop more logical and practical measures to predict reservoir water quality are necessary for proper management of estuarine reservoirs.

  • Usability is one of the most important concepts regarding software quality. It can be interpreted as the goodness associated with using the software product. This paper distinguishes the goodness of an individual using experience and the goodness of a product for using. This paper proposes a software quality view model which classifies software quality views into two broad categories of end view and means view. End view includes long-term view and short-term view which is classified further into performer's view on software activity and third party's view on software activity. Means view includes intrinsic view and contingency view. The analysis of ISO 25000 Series SQuaRE demonstrates the necessity to decompose product quality model and quality in use model into five models corresponding to the software quality views respectively. The analysis on playability shows that the universal definition of usability may be an illusion. The results provide the theoretical basis to build a comprehensive and consistent body of knowledge regarding software quality, which is consisted with the set of quality models and the theories explaining the relationships among the elements of the models.

  • Mobile technology is accelerating innovative changes across all fields of our society as well as business environments. Especially, demands on mobile government (M-government) services have been increased gradually since e-government has improved national administration services dramatically. However, high-quality services which are acceptable to may users are not actually supplied because technical issues such as security on mobile e-government services have not solved and governance policy was not established yet. Previous studies show that most researches are devoted to technical ones or limited to theoretical exploratory study. As a result, developing useful guidelines which are practically and theoretically proved is one of the very important research issues. This study reviews the previous research works such as concept of mobile, e-government, M-government, technical trends of mobile, market situations, present status, and various case studies. And then we develop a research model with five factors, twenty four variables and seventy six measurement for measuring the influencing factors to adoption of M-government services. The model is composed of total 16 hypotheses, 22 variables, and 76 measurements. The model is analyzed by using statistical package SPSS (18.0) and AMOS (18.0) together with structural equation method based on 294 samples. The results show that the model is valid and there are statistically significant influence between ease of use and usefulness, ease of use and user's satisfactions, usefulness and intent of re-use, and user's satisfactions and intent of re-use, excepting usefulness and user's satisfaction, ease of use and intent of re-use did not affect significant influences. Especially, service quality, system quality, and relationship quality are identified as influencing factors to adaption of M-government service. The results are expected to provide a theoretical research framework which generate new research issues in M-government service area. It also can provide an useful guidelines to practical experts in successfully implementing M-government services. Further research directions are as follows. User's intents have to be studied in details by classifying users by individual, enterprise, and government as well as developing a new hypothetical model. Since M-government service is at the initial stage, longitudinal studies have to be conducted to trace the peoples' need in order to develop new high-quality mobile services.
