The goal of this study is to introduce the SW Edu-thon program designed to strengthen pre-service teachers' software teaching competencies and to report its outcomes. In order to achieve the goal, we have conducted a survey for twenty-two teams of two pre-service teachers who have participated in the regional pre-contest and selected for the best lesson plans. The survey consists of several sections including the level of SW competencies, learning motivations, educational outcomes, satisfaction toward the lecturers, mentors, educational programs, and management and operations. In addition, we have analyzed the mentors' progression reports written by the participating in-service teachers who have helped the pre-service teachers to develop and implement their SW lesson plans. The results of this study provide with the outcomes of the program and the future directions for operating the SW Edu-thon program.

Context-aware mobile cloud computing is a new promising paradigm that allows to improve user experience by analyzing contextual information such as user location, time of the day, neighboring devices and current activity. In this paper we provide performance study of context-aware mobile cloud computing system with Volare middleware. Volare monitors the resources and context of the device. and dynamically adapts cloud service requests accordingly, at discovery time or at runtime. This approach allows for more resource-efficient and reliable cloud service discovery, as well as significant cost savings at runtime. We also have studied the performance of context-aware mobile cloud computing for different quality of service (QoS) adaptation policies. Our simulations results show that when battery level is low and CPU usage is high and user cannot maintain the initial QoS, service cost is decreased according to current adaptation policy. In conclusion, the current adaptation policy suggested in this paper may improve user experience by providing a dynamically adapted service cost according to a situation.

In recent years, various contents traffics are increasing according to the various internet connectable devices which have become contents provider. Because these contents traffics show different pattern from previous one, many researches for efficient contents delivery system are in progress. CCN(Contents Centric Network), one of the representative research subject, has inter operation problem with a current network because it has clean-state architecture. In this point of view, this paper suggests the SaNA(Service adaptive Network Architecture) for efficient contents delivery when it inter operates with current network architecture. SaNA is a convergence system which can be gradually applied to current network using CCN and SDN(Software Defined Network) which are core future internet technologies. Appling this system on the contents delivery service, it can increase the network bandwidth utilization by two times and decrease the contents delivery time by 1.7 times.

In radio communication technology, SDR(Software Defined Radio) technology is emerging as a trendy technology for future. SDR is expected to change existing radio systems including central hardware. SDR is equipment that wireless parameters (frequency, modulation, additional service, power level, receive sensitivity, etc.) are controlled by software. In the world, equipments using the new technology are spreading. Not only equipments being imported but also local manufacturers are making this equipment, developing software and offering upgraded service. In the future, as SDR spreads and users choose the service, diverse equipments will be developed through competition and individual development. This diversity of equipment and services will introduce problems in compatibility and interoperation issues. So the government will have to make technical standard for SDR service and will have to make theses standards available to users and manufacturers alike. Therefore I am investigating the elements that can be used to establish these standards.

Open source web service softwares are usually running on UNIX-based operating systems. Choosing an operating system can affect web system performance. In this paper, we describe a source - code-level time measurement tool and measure a service time of each system call that Squid - open source web proxy cache - makes. We run Squid 2.4.STABLEl on Linux 2.4.2 and Solaris 8, and we compare the measured time. As a result, Linux 2.4.2 performs better than Solaris 8. It can be used as a guide for selecting system software on building web service using open source software, and also be used as a basis for enhancing the operating system performance of supporting web service software.

These days, many researchers are working on Future Internet and a new networking paradigm called Software Defined Networking draws a great attention. In this paper, we redefine Software Defined Networking as Service Defined Networking which means that packets are categorized according to types of services. By using Service Defined Networking, we are not only dealing with the way to utilize the network resources efficiently but we also propose an algorithm to minimize the waiting time for packets to be delivered. This proposed algorithm can solve the delay problem, one of the most significant problems caused by network congestion. Also, since we are adopting Service Defined Networking, network resource utilization can be improved compared to the existing network.

Recently, Most of the companies and government offices are under consideration about the adoption of cloud office service to actualize the smart work policies. Comparing with traditional office software, a cloud office service have the advantage of the method of payment and coming over the physical limitations. Many cloud office service users tend to adopt an official evaluated the service without doubt. However after deciding to adopt cloud office service, many users are faced with a variety of problems and difficulties practically. In this study, researchers carried out interview about those problems and difficulties after adopting a cloud office service. Consequently, there are several problems and difficulties such as compatibility, document security, document lost and maladjusted to the new graphic user interface between traditional office software and a cloud office service. A cloud office service have still several advantages not only a competitive price but also ubiquitous attributes. Thus, researchers need to study about what kinds of reason variables can solve those problems and difficulties. In existing research, DeLone & McLean have suggested information system success model. They use three independent variables which are system quality, information quality, service quality. Parameters are user satisfaction, intention to use and use. Lastly, dependent variables are net benefits. However in this study, we need to change the scope of measurement. In other words, we have to replace parameters with dependent variables. Simply, user satisfaction, intention to use and use is going to be dependent variables. There are several reasons why we need changing variables. First, we aim at giving a some suggestions to a cloud service providers which independent variables do not work to satisfy for the users. Second, we need to find out how to maximize cloud office service user's satisfaction and intention to use. Third, we should firstly know that relationship between independent variables and dependent variables. Finally, those research results give for the cloud office service provider to solve the cloud office service adopting problems and difficulties.

With the proliferation of cloud computing infrastructures, service providers are able to deploy services in on-demand manner. Recently, microservice architecture has been attracting attention in order to maximize the efficiency of resource expansion in cloud infrastructure. Instead of implementing all of the service functions in a single software, service providers can easily and autonomously implement the necessary services by interconnecting the necessary services through an efficiently designed application programming interface (API). Moreover service developer can freely choice programming languages and define software, and functional structures to meet their functional requirements. In this paper, we propose virtual infrastructure manager service based on microservice architecture and evaluates its performance in scalability perspective.

This study aims to explore and understand the role of knowledge intensive service activities in the industrial innovation of Korea. It analyzes public and private service inputs to the innovation of manufacturers. The contribution of KISs to the innovation of both service suppliers and manufacturers was analyzed by using survey questionnaire. The results of the analysis revealed that the contribution of KISs to the innovation capability of manufacturers is significant. Large manufacturers that hold internal capability to supply KISs are also active in using external KISs. The manufacturing firms that utilized KISs intensively proved to be more innovative than those did not. Heavy KISs users also entertained benefits of capability enhancement as they improved monitoring and achieved efficient application of knowledge asset into product and process innovation. The role of public KISs in the innovation of manufacturers appeared to be indirect and done mainly through education and public R&D activities. Direct input, such as public software service, was not utilized as much in service suppliers themselves. The major reason is that public KISs may not be relevant to their actual needs. Manufacturers have implemented both tighter integration of familiar KISs and loosely coupled unfamiliar KISs.
