초록

스마트폰 사용이 대중화되어감으로써 스마트폰을 중심으로 형성되고 있는 스마트미디어환경은 새로운 생태계를 구축하고 있다. 본 연구는 스마트폰과 애플리케이션의 보급과 사용이 증가함에 따라서 오프라인에서 온라인화되어가는 요소들의 사용성을 평가하고 지속사용요소들을 알아보는 데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 애플리케이션 사용성 비교에 관한 선행연구들을 분석하여 가설을 설정하고, 대표적인 캘린더 애플리케이션인 iCloud 캘린더와 네이버 캘린더의 사용성을 평가하기 위해 스마트폰 사용자들을 대상으로 두 캘린더 애플리케이션의 심층인터뷰를 시행하고 태스크 수행시간을 분석하여 설정한 가설을 분석하였다. 설정한 가설을 검증하며 심미성에 중점을 두는 사용자는 어떤 요소를 중요시하는지, 사용성과 실용성에 중점을 두는 사용자는 어떤 요소를 중요시하는지 형태별로 분석하였다. 향후 애플리케이션 개발의 '실패와 성공' 요소를 분석하여 향후 다른 온라인화가 되어가는 콘텐츠의 성공적인 발전을 위해 본 연구를 진행하게 되었다.

Since usage of smartphone becomes popular, Ecology of smart media based on smartphone is creating new ecological system of information. This research is for evaluating usability and sustainability of application due to development of smartphone usage in these days. For the research, precedent researches were analyzed and hypothesis were set up based on those researches. Then, iCloud Calendar and Never Calendar, which are two major calendar applications, were evaluated by in-depth interview and measuring task performance time of interviewees, and used these results to verify hypothesis. Then verify hypothesis through the research and analyze which type of users focus on aesthetic impression, and which users focus on usability and practicality. This research is to analyze success and failure points of Calendar Applications' user experience design, and suggests guideline for future transformation of offline to online.
