The paper describes implementation of smartphone edition based on embedded Linux, which is composed of smartphone middleware and basic applications. Existing smartphone platforms entails loyalty expenses and has difficulties on customization due to the closed policy of their source codes. Although GPE - based on embedded Linux has solved the loyalty issues, other problems are remained unsolved. Since GPE has been designed for relatively large PDA-level devices, applications are generally inoperable under the condition of small LCD size and input methods without touch-screen; the condition is typical limitations of the smartphones. In the implemented smartphone edition of the paper no loyalty is required, because the smartphone edition is based on embedded Linux. It also supports keypad-only operating functionality such as moving between folders or running applications with operations. Besides, it provides more user-friendly environment to use the smartphone editionscreen interfaces and indicatorsto those of the regular cellular phones.

The purpose of this study is to identify the relationships among interpersonal relationship anxiety, college adjustment, self-control, and smartphone addiction in nursing students. Collecting data from 173 nursing students, we carried out t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression using IBM SPSS Statistics 19. The significant predictors of smartphone addiction in nursing students have been indentified to be smartphone use time and self-control, accounting for 34.0% of the variability. The results suggest that an effective approach to prevent smartphone addiction for nursing students needs to consider how to decrease smartphone time and also needs to develop ways to enhance self-control and interpersonsal relationship.

The recent growth of smartphone users and high speed network has fueled the expansion of the market for mobile application. Among these applications with various purposes, smartphone games are the hottest contents on this market. Smartphone games are far different from former games due to their new input and output interface (e.g. touch sensors and gyro sensors).It is possible that the most resonable way to categorize these new smartphone games is comparisons of different objects, in this case, various smarphone games. But there exists no classification of the games neither for the use of the market nor the purpose of researches. Even though there are few classifications for games, those classifications have a major flaw that their criteria are derived from superficial features of games. In this paper, we propose a new method to categorize smartphone games through game mechanics of principal design components.

Background: Prolonged neck flexion during smartphone use is known as a factor of neck pain and alteration of neck muscle activity. Studies on the effects of shoulder taping on neck discomfort and neck muscle responses while texting on a smartphone are still lacking. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of shoulder taping on neck discomfort using a numerical rating scale, and neck muscle activity and fatigue using a surface electromyography during a texting task on a touchscreen smartphone. Methods: Twenty-five healthy adolescents used the dominant hand to perform a 30-minute texting task using a touchscreen smartphone at two separate times under one of the following two conditions: taping across the upper trapezius muscle and no taping. Neck discomfort, normalized root mean square, and normalized median frequency slopes for upper trapezius, cervical erector spinae, and sternocleidomastoid muscles were recorded. Results: The results revealed that shoulder taping provided significantly lower neck discomfort than no taping (p < 0.001). However, shoulder taping did not significantly alter normalized root mean square and normalized median frequency slope values of all muscles when compared with no taping controls. Conclusion: Shoulder taping reduces neck discomfort but does not affect neck muscle activity and fatigue while texting on a touchscreen smartphone.

Purpose: This study was undertaken to identify the effects of a camp-type group counseling program based on the self-determination theory, for controlling smartphone usage amongst university students. The program consisted of smartphone overdependence, basic psychological needs, and adaptation to college life. Method: This was a quasi-experimental research with a non-equivalent control group design (pre-test and post-test design). A total of 38 freshmen (17 experimental and 21 control) participated in the study. Experimental subjects attended a two nights and three days camp, where the group counseling program included meetings for basic psychological needs (eg., autonomy, competence, and relatedness). Results: This study showed significant differences in basic psychological needs (Z=-2.91, p=.003) and adaptation to college life (Z=-3.47, p<.001). Although no significant difference was obtained in the degree of smartphone overdependence (p=.194), mean score of the experimental group pre-test and post-test changed from the level of potential risk users to general users. Conclusion: The current findings indicate that by considering the basic psychological needs and adaptation to college life, our program could be an effective intervention for controlling smartphone usage amongst college students. Therefore, we propose that a camp-type counseling program could be considered for application as group therapy for programs associated with preventing smartphone overdependence.

As users' convenience increases, the issue of personal information leakage about smartphones is also becoming serious. Since all of the user's personal information needed to provide functions such as electronic banking services and personal file storage is stored in the smartphone, the user's important personal information may be exposed if the smartphone is lost or stolen. In order to protect this privacy, governments and telecommunications companies offer smartphone locking or initialization services, but there are many loopholes and problems. In this paper, we design and implement applications that prevent malicious use of a user's personal information stored on a smartphone when a smartphone is lost or stolen, and that automatically initializes the smartphone used after removing or altering the USIM chip and destroys the user's personal information stored within the phone. The proposed application prevents users from maliciously using their personal information when a smartphone is lost or stolen.
