By far, numerous e-government projects requiring huge investments have been conducted in Korea to increase the administrative efficiency and improve the service quality via Internet. However, there's little research focusing on methods and techniques for analyzing and evaluating the projects either to economically justify the investments or to assess the quality of the system and of on-line services to citizens. The purpose of this paper is to suggest a set of factors to take into account for evaluating e-government portals and to empirically test the factors to provide useful implications for building such portals. Based on the literature reviewed, we constructed a research model that includes content, public service, community, design, technology, and portal's attributes as independent variables and the user's satisfaction and the administrative efficiency as dependent variables. A reliability test revealed that the evaluation factors proposed in the paper are sufficiently reliable, and a multi-regression analysis indicated that five hypotheses should be accepted. The findings of the study suggest that emphasis should be placed on public service quality and portal site attributes, among others, when implementing portals.

In recent rears. web portal system has received much attention as a user interface for the grid environment. Grid system uses symmetric key for authenticating user identity while the traditional portal system does a password-based authentication. Regarding this, many researches are progressing to integrate portal accounts with symmetric key. Specially. researches such as GAMA and PURSE are active and those focus on easy usability for users who familiar with password-based authentication. However the protection of data and resources is a critical issue in Grid environment, because those are shared through a wide-area network. In this paper, we suggest a new authentication mechanism which unify authentication mechanisms between portal system and grid service by using symmetric key. It will improve a security level in UI layer as much as in grid service.

This paper is a study on the design and implementation of cooperative monitoring agent using mobile agent for educational portal site. Generally educational portal sites have many addresses of teachers homepage. Therefore, portal site has a very difficult task with maintaining a consistent address of site and administration of portal is impossible while to be on the search for all dead sites. In order to overcome this problem, we designed and implemented a mutual cooperative monitoring agent in order to filter off dead site using mobile agent. The monitoring agent applies at Korean educational portal site (KEPS) for elementary student and makes an experiment efficient. Finally a cooperative mobile agent is compared with a stationary monitoring agent.

This research studied the interactions of online communities, reward, commitment and loyalty to purchase intention in portal sites based on relevant theories. Data were collected from the users who had purchase experiences in potal sites to analyze the effects of interactions and loyalty. An empirical analysis regarding the hypothesized structural equation model was performed using SPSS 10.0 and PLS Graph 3.0. As the result, the interactivity of communities was found significant to commitment and loyalty, the reward of community was shown to significantly influence commitment, but not loyalty. And the commitment and loyalty of community were shown to have much effects on purchase intention. Finally, trust on portal sites were found to have an interaction effect on purchase intention.

This study examined relationship of effect between the characteristics of specialized portal and two branch dimension(cognitive and emotional e-trust) of e-trust on the specialized portal web-site. The characteristics of specialized portal web-site composed the guarantee factor, the structural factor, information factor, the entertainment factor and the flow factor by prior research. The model of e-trust strategy for specialized portal web-site is tested here using data from 122 samples. Result of factor and regression analysis show that the hypothesized relationships are significant. In examining the relationships of the factors in the study, the guarantee, structural and information fact effect on building of cognitive e-Trust. Second, the entertainment and flow factor effect on emotional e- Trust. Third, the cognitive and emotional e- Trust effect on the satisfaction of e-Service users. As these results, this study found out difference paths of e-Trust which effect on the satisfaction of e-Service by cognitive and emotional e- Trust approaches to the specialized portal web - sites.

This study aims at applying Chaffee & McLeod's co-orientation model to Internet portal news providers and users to find out their mutual understanding toward various features of online news. Included in those features are interactivity, expansion of user role, larger choices(user characteristics), real time update of news, limitless quantity, contextualized contents through hypertext, data base service, and multimedia contents(contents characteristics). To test the level of agreement, accuracy and congruency between the parties, a survey was conducted among 105 portal news providers from 11 online news media, and 105 portal news users between ages 20 and 40. The result indicated that both portal news providers and users showed agreement for user characteristics, but by and large displayed either ignorance or partial congruency toward contents characteristics. Communication between portal news providers and users are thus exported to increase until it reaches the point where the internet's newly born identity as a news medium gets finally stabilized.

The past, present, and future of online journalism in Korea are inextricably bound up with the portal site news services.

This study aims to search for education-related datasets provided by public data portals and examine what data types are constructed through classification using topic modeling methods. Regarding the data of the public data portal, 3,072 cases of file data in the education field were collected based on the classification system. Text mining analysis was performed using the LDA-based topic modeling method with stopword processing and data pre-processing for each dataset. Program information and student-supporting notifications were usually provided in the pre-classified dataset for education from the data portal. On the other hand, the characteristics of educational programs and supporting information for the disabled, parents, the elderly, and children through the perspective of lifelong education were generally indicated in the dataset collected by searching for education. The results of data analysis through this study show that providing sufficient educational information through the public data portal would be better to help the students' data science-based decision-making and problem-solving skills.
