With the emergence of world wide web, in particular web 2.0 the rapidly growing amount of news articles has created a problem for users in selection of news articles according to their requirements. To overcome this problem different clustering mechanism has been proposed to broadly categorize news articles. However these techniques are totally machine oriented techniques and lack users' participation in the process of decision making for membership of clustering. In order to overcome the issue of zero-participation in the process of clustering news articles in this paper we have proposed a framework for clustering news articles by combining users' judgments that they post on twitter with the news articles to cluster the objects. We have employed twitter hash-tags for this purpose. Furthermore we have computed the credibility of users' based on frequency of retweets for their tweets in order to enhance the accuracy of the clustering membership function. In order to test performance of proposed methodology, we performed experiments on tweets messages tweeted during general election 2013 in Pakistan. Our results proved over claim that using users' output better outcome can be achieved then ordinary clustering algorithms.

This article is an overview of the digital library project, indicating what roles Koreas diverse digital collections may play. Our digital library prototype has simple architecture, consisting of digital repositories, filters, indexing and searching, and clients. Digital repositories include various types of materials and databases. The role of filters is to recognize a format of a document collection and mark the structural components of each of its documents. We are using a database management system (ORACLE and ConText) supporting user-defined functions and access methods that allows us to easily incorporate new object analysis, structuring, and indexing technology into a repository. Clients can be considered browsers or viewers designed for different document data types, such as image, audio, video, SGML, PDF, and KORMARC. The combination of navigational tools supports a variety of approaches to identifying collections and browsing or searching for individual items. The search interface was implemented using HTML forms and the World Wide Web's CGI mechanism.

As XML documents become popular in the World Wide Web, a lot of research is being done on XML storage systems that store and manage XML documents using existing DBMSS. However, most of them have been done in the context of relational DBMSS rather than object-relational DBMSS, which have more powerful modeling capability than relational ones. In this paper, we design and implement an XML storage system, ODYSSEUS/XMLStore, for the ODYSSEUS object-relational DBMS that has been under development at KAIST. First, we analyze the mapping from the structure of XML documents to the relational or object-relational database schema. Second, we propose a method for describing the mapping analyzed using a standard language, XML Schema. Third, we propose a storage structure for storing the mapping information specified by the users in the database. Fourth, we propose detailed algorithms for storing XML documents in the relational or object-relational database based on the mapping information provided by the users.

Information technology. computers, networks, and the World Wide Web are ubiquitous. Academic libraries have applied information technology over the last ten years. The traditional role of the library as the scholarly information heart of the university is being questioned as information technology makes Information ever more easily accessible. And the recent technological development may alter the fundamental concept or identity of the academic library in the twenty-first century. This paper examines the ways in which information technology have chanced the academic library over the last decades and deals with the logical interrelation of 'information technology' and 'management' in the context of academic libraries in Korea. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the impacts of information technology on academic library management (organizational structure. librarian's job and role. budget allocation and expenditures, space planning and functionality, collection paradigm, user service, academic entity, etc) and suggests a desirable acceptance attitudes and efficient management acceptance attitude and management.

Legal rules applying to the commerce and international commerce in particular contracts, proper law, jurisdiction and so on, have improved with time and experience. Engaging in e-commerce on the World Wide Web may expose the company to the risk of being sued in any foreign country where Internet user can establish a legal claim. The modem law of contracts is highly sophisticated and difficult to understand. With contracts created in cyberspace, the basic rules are no difference that we can find. However, there are situations in e-commerce that are altogether new and to which the existing rules cannot apply. Here uncertainty and business risk is too high for trading partners to deal with certainty. Therefore existing law must change to e-commerce law so that it provides certainty and enforceability over e-commerce. UNCITRAL Working Group on Electronic Commerce prepared the Preliminary Draft Convention on [International] Contracts Concluded or Evidenced by Data Message from the thirty-ninth session in 2002 which applies to international contracts concluded or evidenced by means of data messages. An electronic contract is concluded when the acceptance of an offer becomes effective, and an offer becomes effective when it is received by the offeree, and an acceptance of an offer becomes effective when the indication of assent is received by the offeror according to this Convention. Electronic contract may be concluded by the interaction of an automated computer system and natural person or by the interaction of automated computer systems, and a contract formed by a natural person that accesses an automated computer system of another person has no legal effect in case the neutral person made a material error in a data message.

World Wide Web (WWW)에서 Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML)를 이용하는 3 차원 (3D) 디스플레이는 사용자에게 직관적인 정보를 더 효과적으로 제공해 준다. 웹을 기반으로 하는 해부학적 영상과 융합되는 기능적 영상의 3D 가시화는 아직까지 체계적인 방식으로 연구가 활발히 진행되지 않았다. 이 연구의 목적은 2D 영상들과 함께 웹에서 VRML을 이용하여 구현되는 3D 해부학적 표면 영상들과 기능적 표면 영상들을 동시적으로 관찰할 수 있게 하고 VRML을 통해 만들어진 거리 측정 도구를 가지고 관심영역의 공간적인 위치 정보를 제공하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 한 명의 간질 환자로부터 Magnetic Resonance (MR) 축면 영상과 발작기 및 발작간기 Single Photon Emission Computed Tomo graphy (SPECT) 축면 영상들을 각각 획득하였다. 발작 진원지의 확인을 향상시키기 위해서 subtraction ictal SPECT co registered to MRI (SISCOM) 을 수행하였다. SISCOM 결과로 나타난 각 2D 영상들은 모든 voxel 들의 평균 값 위로 1 표준편차와 2 표준편차에 해당하는 문턱 이상의 영상 값을 갖도록 하였다. SISCOM으로 나타나는 간질 발작 진원지들과 MRI 영상에서 회색질, 백색질 및 뇌척수액의 경계들을 각각 분할하고 marching cube 알고리즘에 의해 VRML 표면 영상들로 나타내었다. 축면 영상에서 실제 거리를 나타내는 x, y 축의 길이를 측정하고 z 축선의 길이를 계산하였다. VRML을 이용한 거리 측정 도구를 만들어 이전의 VRML 표면 영상들과 융합하였다. MRI 영상을 이용하여 3D 표면 영상들의 단면을 나타내고 3D 표면 영상들의 투명도를 설정하기 위해 Java Script 루틴을 사용자 인터페이스 도구로서 삽입하였다. 웹 페이지에서 구현되는 3D 표면 영상들의 투명도와 관찰 위치를 조절함에 따라 모델들 사이의 공간적인 정보를 직관적으로 알 수 있었다. 간질 발작 진원지에 대응하는 해부학적 구조를 3D 표면 영상들을 가로지르는 MRI 평면 영상들을 통해서 확인하였다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 제시하는 웹에 근거한 3D 융합 영상의 가시화와 위치 측정은 진단 및 치료 방사선학과 외과학 등의 분야에서 온라인 방식의 연구와 교육에 있어 많은 도움을 줄 것이다.

Exchange of data between users and system is made by users' inputting their information into HTML input forms like when signing up in websites or buying in online shopping malls. If users make a mistake of inputting their information, the system gives an error message in order for users to correct their mistakes. Although ISO recommends immediate feedback, Bargas et al. gave a report that feedback in all after filling forms out is more usable than feedback one by one when inputting data online. We made a comparative experiment on usability under each case of feedback one by one and feedback in all. The result is immediate feedback is more usable and satisfactory. The analysis of data resulted that immediate feedback produced fewer error and gets higher subjective ratings.

This paper is for the optimized management of the knowledge abstracted from the World-Wide Web(WWW) in which we assume the infinite knowledge-base. Though we can abstract various useful knowledge such as the facts and the rules from the WWW pages, they may include many noisy knowledge. Therefore we have to reasonably reject them from the knowledge-base which is composed of knowledge abstracted from the WWW. To do this, we propose the oblivious memorization concept. This concept is characterized by the memorization based on the oblivion mechanism of human being. We assume the memorization is the function of the concern for any knowledge, oblivion ability and time. That is, the more concern for my knowledge the ore memorizable. And, the more oblivious and the more tine spent the less memorizable by exponentially. Where, tie assume the oblivion is the function of the degree of previous memorization, memorization ability md the number of knowledge stimulation. That is, the more previously memorized, the greater memorizing ability and the more frequently stimulated by any knowledge the less knowledge oblivious.

In recent years, e-Commerce is very active on the Internet, especially the World Wide Web along with the popularization of Internet using high-speed networks. Especially, Electronic Software Distribution(ESD) is widely being focused as one of the popular researches. However, the existing models of ESD lack substantial illegal copy protection or copyright protection as they have the shortcomings of guaranteeing anonymity of users. This study suggests an ESD protocol that guarantees substantial copyright protection and anonymity based on the Public Key Infrastrncture(PKl). The suggested method does not give the information of a buyer who doesn't want to reveal to a seller, and protects illegal copy and distribution as well. When it happens that illegal copies are in circulation, this method provides a device to trace back its original distributor so that it helps protect the copyright. In addition, it provides more convenient environment to the user by not using the methods of serial number input and extra installation to use.
