This study attempted to analyze factors influencing S-DMB adoption. The theoretical background of this study is 'Technology acceptance model.' Based on this theory and literature review this study set 5 hypotheses. For this research, a survey was conducted by online research lab. from October 25 to 31. Data were collected from 350 subjects. Complete and useable questionnaires were received from 303 respondents. The result and conclusion are as follow: 'Instant accessibility,' 'service quality,' 'Cost,' 'advertising,' 'perceived easy of use' are significant factors influencing 'perceived usefulness'. 'Compatibility,' is a significant variable influencing 'perceived easy of use'. However, 'self efficacy' and 'innovativeness' are not significant factors influencing 'perceived easy of use.' The result of the analysis showed that most of the hypotheses were verified the same as preceding studies, but some results were different with the result of preceding studies. Therefore, it implies the characteristics of S-DMB different with other IT systems and mass media that were research subject mostly before, and it influences the result of this study as well.

Currently, there are many digilog products that combine convenience of digital product with feeling of analog product. The experiment was conducted to study the effect of image location, regulatory focus, and message direction in digilog product evaluation. First, ad evaluation of digilog product is more favorable when regulatory focus and message direction is consistent. Especially, this effect is shown when image is located in the right side. Second, people evaluate digital product warmer when regulatory focus and message direction is consistent. This effect is stronger when image is located in the left side. Last, purchase intention is more favorable when regulatory focus and message direction is consistent. This effect is shown when image is located in the right side.

A variety of methods are used in public advertising to make message persuasive. In order for posters to be more appealing, one good way is to use synesthesia. This study analyzed how synesthesia were used for effective communication. The case analysis is based on the prize winning advertisements chosen by the Korea Broadcast Advertising Corporation. According to the study, synesthesia maximize the efficiency of information delivery. Secondly, in the public campaign posters, sight was the most frequently used sensory element, followed by touch, hearing, smell and taste, respectively. Third, visual tactility was mostly used in nature and environment related posters to effectively deliver the messages. In the topic of social community campaigning, visualization of hearing was applied the most. Lastly, when more than three multisensory stimulations were present in the public campaign, the strongest sense stimulus played the largest part in making message delivery more efficient.

The motion capture system has shown its great potential as a new image expression means for handling such challenging tasks as realistic animation of humans or animals in motion, which cannot be handled by the existing key frame method satisfactorily, and also projects involving a large scale or a burdensome economic expenses. Its applications also has been intensified and widened in the entertainment arena including motion pictures, TV, advertisements, documentaries, music videos, etc. centering around games. Despite of these merits, though, a number of issues have been surfaced in the digital image expression utilizing the motion capture system, such as a burdensome amount of preparatory work, the needs for attachment of markers and for remedial corrections of motion data, and the lack of trained manpower. We would like to present in this paper a new direction for making the digital image production more efficient, based on the extensive analysis of prior image production projects that used the motion capture system.

Although E-mail system is considered as a most important communication media, 'Spam' is flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it. Most spam is commercial advertising, often for dubious products, get-rich-quick schemes, or quasi-legal services. Therefore advanced anti-spam techniques are required to basically reduce its transmission volume on sender mail server or MTA, etc. In this study, we propose a new sender authentication model with encryption function based on modified DomainKey with SMS for Spam mail protection. From the SMS message, we can get secret information used for verification of its real sender on e-mail message. And by distributing this secret information with SMS like out-of-band channel, we can also combine proposed modules with existing PGP scheme for secure e-mail generation and authentication steps. Proposed scheme provide enhanced authentication function and security on Spam mail protection function because it is a 'dual mode' authentication mechanism.
