The study evaluates user experiences of YouTube and Vimeo, typical Video-sharing websites, to suggest guidelines that are more user-cantered and useful. I did some literature research followed with evaluation of theoretical backgrounds, present conditions and future services. Also, I used the six principles of "Creating Pleasurable Interface" by Stephen Anderson to conduct an in-depth interview. The results indicate that YouTube needs to improve availability of its functions and usability by reducing advertisement. Vimeo needs to improve its popularity by increasing popular contents and add relationship service such as personal broadcasting system and community services. I expect this study will become a good resource for upgrading user experiences of Video-sharing websites. I also believe that this study can guide other studies about user experience in other fields.

As the market of music download stores moved into the mobile epoch the market was growing explosively. Recently, the digital music market tends to move from the mp3 download market to streaming service and the users can use the service on their mobile devices without reference to any inconvenient download and limited storage capacity. It was found that they mainly use the recommendation music playlist, instant player, main player and sharing of the functions of the streaming service from the user behavior research. This is noticeable features that set apart from the mp3 download service. However, the interface design of the streaming app followed the previous service and it needs the optimization of its UI design. In this study, the usability of high ranked three mobile streaming apps was evaluated. The result of the test was that Naver music and Bugs had high scores overall in four sections of the streaming service features. On the other hand, the Melon had primarily high score in color application on the service. The aim of this study is to suggest the direction of the UI design of music streaming service through the understanding of essence of streaming service and evaluation the usability test.

The purpose of this study was to develop a personalized SMT (smart monitor target) game interface for game users who enjoy airsoft sports as individual purchases of SMT have increased since the advent of the untouched era. For this study, the UX (user experience) of the game interface was designed based on previous research. In particular, the personalized game service was reinforced by adding the CP (command post) of the SMT system that performs the home function of the console game, which was intended to help the user maintain immersed in the game in the personalized space of the SMT. Major design elements for the SMT game interface included layout, color, graphics, buttons, and text, and the interface design was proceeded based on them. After composing a grid with a layout in which the tab function was applied to the interface with a vertical three-segment structure and the outer margin value secured, the military camouflage pattern and texture were applied to the colored tone to perform graphics work. Targets and thumbnails were produced as illustrations using experts to ensure the consistency of the interface, and then function buttons and texts on each page were used concisely for intuitive information delivery. The design sources organized in this way were developed using the Unity engine. In the future, we hope that game user-centered personalized interfaces will continue to develop and provide differentiated services unique to SMT systems in the airsoft gun market.

This paper deals with interface design of a university webzines that to search through an internet portal site Naver. It was obtained the following conclusions. First, university webzines are using a hypertext link to such images, text, movie. Second, it could be seen that mainly been using block grid, the module grid, and a transformed layout of 2 tier grid. Third, Seoul woman's University, Kyungpook National University, and Korea Maritime University's webzines found that layout, color, user-friendly access the structure. Fourth, webzine was used the text or image a link, search function, site map, icon, favorites, quick menus, navigation bars, and rollover menu. Last, university webzines were shown to contribute mere to the enhancement of its value as a promotional medium.

This study investigates the user experience about the camera application and the operation environment that share the photographed pictures with the SNS in a smartphone user environment which is a necessity of modern people. To do this, 10 task tasks were selected based on 3 aspects such as manipulation, editing, and sharing, and the task execution time was measured after tasks were performed on 8 persons, 4 persons in 20s. Experiments conducted mainly on Samsung Experience 8 and LG UX 6.0, which are representative user interfaces of Android mobile operating system, showed that there are differences in usability between the three interfaces for each interface. In the course of the experiment, all of the subjects mentioned ease of operation and various functions as advantages. However, the complexity of text-based interfaces has been difficult to use because of the variety of functions that can be set up. Future research will be needed to improve the usability of camera applications by user interface.

This study is about comparing the mobile user experience of Facebook and Instagram which are most often used among the recent SNSs by the people in their 30s and under. This study analyzed the user experience level after dividing the user experience factors through the Creating Pleasurable Interfaces model, and suggested the mean analysis as well as the result of Wilcoxon rank test which is a nonparametric statistics method. As a result of study, the Display information visually factor in functional factor and the configuration of the main page in convenient factor were a statistically significant difference in the mobile user experience of Facebook and Instagram. It is expected that this study may help seeking the user experience factors to be promoted preferentially in a competitive situation through the statistical comparative evaluation of the experience of two SNS users.

일반적으로 인터페이스를 설계한다고 하면 화면의 그래픽을 아름답게 하거나 기능을 단순화하는 작업이라는 인식을 가지는 경우가 있다. 그러나 인터페이스를 설계한다고 하는 것은 '사용함'을 디자인하는 것이다. 따라서 전자제품 등의 '사용함'의 설계는 기능의 구조, 조작의 흐름, 조작의 방법, 피드백, 레이아웃 및 그래픽 등을 모두 포함한다. (중략)

This study was conducted to test the significance of differences in the tactual difference thresholds and perception time for tactual direction type and finger type and radius size based on small circular button. The results show that difference threshold of vertical tactual perception is significantly greater than horizontal perception, but there are no significant differences in difference thresholds among finger types and radius sizes. Also, there are no significant differences in tactual perception time among tactual direction types, finger types, and radius types. These findings are applicable for tactual user interface design.

Most UIMS(User Interface Management System) adopt dialogue model of user interface Implementation of UIMS influenced by adopted dialogue model of user interface strongly. While the Model-View-Controller framework has contributed to many aspects of user interface development in Smalltalk environment- user interfaces generated with MVC have highly coupled model, view, and controller classes. Such coupling impedes the reuse of software component. So In this paper, we suggest MVCD model to resolve a decline of reuse with MVC have highly coupled. User messages are not changed by Controller immediately, but sent to Dialogue object which maintains the syntatic structure of the interaction. Dialogue object invokes Model object to updates is value. Since Model objects have active values, the value change propagates to the linked Controllers. Finally, Controller object convert the new value and update the View object. User interface builder is implemented on X-window with OSF/Motif that is base on this user dialogue model.
