In order to suggest ways to enhance service competitiveness in cruise and destination, this study developed a measure of cruise tour service and analyzed the impact and relative importance on customer satisfaction. Specifically, for the service quality analysis, based on the SERVPERF model, the specialty of the industry was reflected through the arguments of tourism and transport logistics, and the three factors of cruise service quality and destination service quality were derived and utilized as measurement tools. As an analysis method, factor and reliability analysis were conducted using data collected via a survey. Next, correlation analysis was conducted to analyze the relationship between variables and regression analysis was performed to check the impact of cruise tour service quality on customer satisfaction. The study found that both cruise service attributes and destination service attributes had a positive effect on customer satisfaction and that the relative importance of service attributes was identified. Accordingly, it was found that the service quality should be formed by reflecting arguments in the tourism and transport logistics sectors and that the service should be further improved and developed according to the importance of the service attributes so as to enhance cruise tour products.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the selection factors of sports climbing center, customer satisfaction, and re-registration. Data collection for the purpose of this study was collected through S center, B center, V center located in Seoul and K center located in Gyeonggi-do. A total of 296 valid samples were used for the analysis. To make sure the theory, it was based on analysis of frequency, factor analysis, reliability analysis and multiple regression. First of all, it was found that the factors of selecting the sports climbing center partially affected the customer satisfaction level. Second, it was found that the factors of selecting the sports climbing center partially affected the decision to re-register.

Various data analysis methods used for customer type analysis are very important for game companies to understand their type and characteristics in an attempt to plan customized content for our customers and to provide more convenient services. In this paper, we propose a k-mode cluster analysis algorithm that uses information uncertainty by extending information entropy to reduce information loss. Therefore, the measurement of the similarity of attributes is considered in two aspects. One is to measure the uncertainty between each attribute on the center of each partition and the other is to measure the uncertainty about the probability distribution of the uncertainty of each property. In particular, the uncertainty in attributes is taken into account in the non-probabilistic and probabilistic scales because the entropy of the attribute is transformed into probabilistic information to measure the uncertainty. The accuracy of the algorithm is observable to the result of cluster analysis based on the optimal initial value through extensive performance analysis and various indexes.

Mobile phone-related industries have been mainly concentrated on attracting the new customers and increasing the market share such as for the aggressive marketing activities, but it is the time to find an effective strategy to preserve existing customers since the mobile phone market had already reached the saturation. In this study, the properties of mobile phone that influence on the choice of handset and telecom company were analyzed. General properties of respondents were explored and the mobile phone properties were grouped by common factors. And analyzed the effect of factors on customer satisfaction with structural equation model. 10.4% of respondents are used their handset more than two years and 48.7% wanted to purchase other manufacturer's handset if they repurchase mobile phone. These results might come form the fact that the life cycle of mobile phone become shorter by the heating competition in mobile phone market and, to some degree, the influence of smart phone which recently become globally popular. Four factors, 'Hardware Quality', 'Practicality', 'Convergence Functions' and 'Level of Awareness', are induced from the mobile phone properties. In Structural Equation Model analysis, 'Hardware Quality' and 'Practicality' have significant and positive effects on Customer Satisfaction. But, 'Awareness' such as brand and trend appeared quite less influence on the customer satisfaction.

In this study, the factors of customers' selection attributes on family restaurants, brand images, and the effect on revisit intention were analyzed. Specifically, the effects of brand, store, and price, which are sub-factors of family restaurants, on customers' revisit intention, store/service value, brand value, food effect, and revisit intention were examined. Among the brand image and four family restaurant selection attributes derived from this study, the most significant selection attributes were the cleanliness and hygiene of family restaurant stores and the menu and quality of family restaurant stores. Therefore, it can be said that family restaurants are price attributes and store/service attributes that have the most influence among the selection attributes. Through this, we intend to provide basic data necessary to find development plans through strategic plans for family restaurant management in the future.
