This study aims to investigate human capital in Korea's online game industry (as the representative of IT-based creative services) under the knowledge-based economy paradigm. In recognition of the importance of intellectual capital closely intertwined with human capital and the economic potential of the online game industry, Korean government has begun to show active support. In this context, this study measures the human capital efficiency in online game business by using non-parametric analysis (Data Envelopment Analysis, DEA). Most previous studies (human capital theory, knowledge based economy theory, economic growth theory) have proved that human capital has a very positive effect on sustainable growth of corporate management and wealth of nations. As such, this paper uses the DEA to obtain the efficiency of the human capital (scale, investment, education, compensation). The results of this study will suggest strategic implications on maximizing the human capital in online game corporations and provide a reference frame for government policies.

Much efforts to use educational games for students' learning is being made actively at home. In this study the action levels of the educational game and the learners' personality types are main variables to be explored. It is expected that the results of this study would suggest how to utilize educational games in teaching and learning. The above is the result of the research about the level of action of educational games, the type of the personality, and the intrinsic motivation. It is considered that the result can be enough information for learners, parents of students and teachers who try to use and develop educational games. For example, it can be an idea to construct menus considering characteristics of learners in various steps of designing and developing educational games. And it can help to improve learners' intrinsic motivation especially if games are developed, distinguishing games for extrovert learners from those for introvert learners.

As a software component for computer game, the physics engine simulates objects' movement according to the laws of physics. This paper introduces a design and implementation of mobile game on the Android platform, where we used JBox2D physics engine library and Android graphics APIs. We borrowed the key idea of this game from Crayon Physics which is known as a famous PC game. This game starts with no way from user character to destination character. The game user has to make a way to destination character from user character by creating polygon objects between them. The user wins when user character meets destination character. However, the game user has to decide the time to create objects and their shapes well because all objects in this game are governed by the laws of physics. As an important thing of this paper, we introduced into this game new input methods of LCD touch and sensors embedded in mobile devices but not in PCs. Game users can create objects by drawing polygons with LCD touch and move objects or characters according to sensor values from accelerator sensors by tilting the mobile device.

This study is to verify the effectiveness of initial planning verification using paper prototyping while methodologies are being developed to verify the direction of game planning in a short time at low cost since it is having a hard time to verify the direction and fun of the game by taking a lot of capital and time in the initial planning process as the game development becomes larger. It conducted paper prototyping production for about 40 students who are learning game planning for a semester, and trained them on how to motivate using core mechanical diagrams, scrums, and basic psychological needs that can effectively materialize the ideas of their early game planning. Through this curriculum, board games were completed with eleven paper prototyping, and it was confirmed that students who participated in the class were meaningful in verifying fun and securing gameability through cross-play.

Online game business has emerged as the most lucrative entertainment industry, with over 20 million platers. The popularity of online games can be attributed to the presence of numerous PC Bangs around the country, which have pushed online games into the mainstream culture while broadband internet services facilitated online game play. The age distribution of online game players is expanding and a variety of new games are under development to target certain age groups. While the online game market continues to expand, with many new online game publishers entering the market, relatively little is known about which factors are strategically important for successful development of online games. A conceptual framework is proposed, and a structural equation modeling, for Identifying the factors affecting the market success of online games, is developed. The concept of online game community, idea generation, systematic development strategy, flexible development process, utilizing demo-version, outsourcing, etc, are ail introduced into the model, as the independent variables affecting the success level of online games directly and indirectly. Based on data collected from questionnaire survey, the validity of the model has been tested and interesting conclusions have been developed concerning the relationships between these variables. Statistical results show that utilizing online game community and system atic development strategy is the key for successful online game development. Other interesting results concerning game development strategy are also provided. It is hoped that this result might provide the useful guidelines for developing the successful online game contents. With a better understanding of key success factors, online game developers should be able to make adjustments in their development and marketing plans, providing them with a sustainable advantage over their competition.

초기의 이동통신 서비스는 음성 위주였으나, 현재에 와서는 음성뿐만 아니라, 무선 인터넷, 게임, 위치, 동영상, 전자상거래, 모바일 오피스 등의 다양한 무선 인터넷 서비스에 대한 비중이 점점 더 커지고 있다. 이에 따라 다양한 서비스 아이디어를 신속히 제공하기 위한 개방형 무선 애플리케이션 플랫폼에 대한 요구가 커지자, 자바, BREW, stinger, SIM toolkit 등의 다양한 애플리케이션 플랫폼들이 등장하게 되었고, 비동기 표준 단체인 3GPP에서는 이들 현재 기술들을 바탕으로 한 모바일 애플리케이션 실행 환경인 MExE를 제안하고 있다. 본고에서는 무선 데이터 서비스 애플리케이션 플랫폼에 대한 이동통신 사업자의 입장과 각 요소 기술을 살펴보고자 한다.

획기적인 아이디어나 상품 개발은 인간 생활 방식을 혁명적으로 바꾸기도 하고 다양한 상품과 결합하여 보다 빠르게 진화하기도 한다. 불과 몇 년 전에 개발된 스마트폰은 기존의 전화 기능에 게임, 음악, 인터넷 등 컴퓨터의 기능이 탑재되어 현대인의 생활에 없어서는 안 될 필수 아이템이 되었다. 필자가 개발한 First Guitar로 명명된 스마트폰용 기타 어플리케이션 (Guitar Application)은 현재 시장에서 판매되고 있는 여타 프로그램과 달리, 실제 기타 연주의 느낌을 구현하고자 개발되었다. 본 논문은 First Guitar 개발 과정에서 논의하고 고려했던 다양한 기능과 사용자 중심의 디자인에 대한 연구이다.

미국 콜로라도주 박람회 미술전에서 신인 디지털 아티스트 부문에서 1위를 차지한 게임 디자이너인 제이슨 앨런의 작품 스페이스오페라 극장'이 AI Image generator Midjourney를 활용해서 완성된 작품이라는 것이 알려지면서 창작과 예술 분야에 AI 활용이라는 논쟁이 가속화되고 있다. 창작과 예술을 돕는 탁월한 기능을 가진 툴로 바라보거나 창작과 예술 활동에 아이디어를 제공하고 작품을 구체화하는 과정의 조력자로 환영하는 입장과 예술가의 작품을 허가 없이 훔쳐서 만들어 낸 이미지일 뿐이라는 이상도 이하도 아니며 도덕적으로 허락되어서는 안되다는 입장이 크게 충돌하고 있다. 하루가 다르게 빠르게 발전하고 있는 주요 AI Image generator를 살펴보고 창작과 예술 분야에 AI 활용은 어떤 변화를 가져올지, AI 활용의 긍정적인 측면을 예측하고 연구해 보고자 한다.

In AI research Go is regarded as the most challenging board game due to the positional evaluation difficulty and the huge branching factor. MCTS is an exciting breakthrough to overcome these problems. The idea behind AlphaGo was to estimate the winning rate of a given position and then to lead deeper search for finding the best promising move. In this paper, using non-strategic MCTS we verified the fact that most pro players regard the best first move as Tengen (Origin of heaven) in $9{\times}9$ Go is correct. We also compared the average winning rates of the most popular first moves.
