전 세계적으로 초고속 인터넷이 보급화 되고 대중화 되는 현재 컴퓨터 온라인 게임 산업뿐만 아니라 스마트폰 모바일 게임 산업이 빠르게 성장하면서 고정된 장소에서 게임하는 시대는 가고 이동 중 게임하는 시대가 열렸다. 이와 동시에 모바일 게임 트래픽 또한 점차 증가되고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문은 모바일 게임의 트래픽 분석을 위해 서로 다른 특성의 게임인 애니팡과 드래곤 플라이트를 이용하여 모바일 속도 측정 프로그램인 벤치비로 트래픽 변동 상황을 정리하고 tPacketCapture 프로그램과 네트워크 측정 분석기인 Wireshark로 일정한 시간 간격을 두고 총 패킷의 수와 전송되는 패킷의 크기 등에 대한 체계적인 네트워크 데이터를 분석하여 시간적 제한이 있는 보드 퍼즐 게임의 특성을 지닌 애니팡은 게임 진행상에서 빈번하게 데이터 패킷이 송 수신 되고 시간적 제한이 없는 슛팅 게임의 특성을 지닌 드래곤 플라이트는 게임 시작과 종료 지점에서만 주로 데이터 패킷이 송 수신 된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 스마트폰 모바일 게임의 트래픽 분석은 향후 모바일 게임 네트워크의 성능 평가나 다른 모바일 게임의 설계 및 개발 등에 활용 될 수 있을 것이다.

IT기술의 발달은 사회 구성원들에게 기존의 방법과 다른 새로운 교육방법을 요구하고 있으며, 체험교육과 경험교육이 강조됨에 따라 웹 기반의 가상환경에서 체험교육을 할 수 있는 경영 모의 게임에 대한 중요성이 커지고 있다. 그러나 이러한 경영 모의 게임의 이점에도 불구하고 국내에서는 경영모의 게임의 활용도가 매우 낮은 편이며, 그 교육효과에 대한 실증적 분석도 미미하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 경영 모의 게임의 교육효과에 영향을 주는 성공요인에 관해 실증적 분석을 수행 하였다. 분석을 위해 경영 모의 게임에 참가한 교육생을 대상으로 컨텐츠 특성, 참가자 특성, 교육환경 특성이 교육효과에 영향을 미치는가에 대한 통계분석을 수행 하였다. 통계 분석 결과, 컨텐츠 특성, 참가자 특성, 교육환경 특성은 게임의 교육효과에 영향을 미친다는 유효한 결과가 분석되었다. 통계적 분석 결과 도출한 성공 요인을 기초로 활용방안을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the contents and system characteristics of online game and analyzed how these characteristics are related to the flow and online game usage. For this purpose, we identified character customization, storytelling traits, item properties as the contents characteristics of online game(MMORPG) and user interface and ease of community usage as the system characteristics of online game(MMORPG) based on previous researches and in-depth interviews from MMORPG users. The results of this paper revealed that character customization, storytelling traits and item properties positively influence the flow, however, game reality has not impact on the flow. In the system characteristics, only ease of community usage positively influence the flow at a significant level. Furthermore, it is proven that flow has an impact online game usage. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
