스마트 폰이 보편화되면서 소셜 네트워크 게임의 시장이 확장되고 있다. 온라인 커뮤니티를 기반으로 한 소셜 네트워크 게임은 유저의 수에 비례하여 수익이 발생하기 때문에 초기 유저 확보의 점유가 중요하다. 현재의 소셜 네트워크 게임은 체계적인 비즈니스 모델을 사용하지 않고 일반적인 게임 마케팅 비즈니스 모델을 사용하는 사례가 대부분이다. 초기 유저 확보를 위해서 객관적이고, 논리적인 수익 모델 및 수용 요인 분석이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 요인을 멀티 레벨 비즈니스 모델을 디자인 한 후, 초기 유저 확보를 위한 정량적인 근거를 제안하였다. 소셜 게임 'Rich town'을 분석하여 초기 유저 유입 데이터를 도출한 데이터를 본 논문에서 제안한 멀티 레벨 비즈니스 모델에 적용하였다.

In this paper, we suggest a network game system that can support video game based on multi-platform for multi-user video game, Latency occurring from the load fluctuation in realtime network game is overcomed by using an initial delay buffering scheme on client, when a real-fire game is played, and shows that stable play for a game is achieved as the result of the scheme. Also, We suggest a retransmission algorithm based on the history of game commands, and this Algorithm supplement shortcomings for packet loss and pocket error on UDP communication.

This paper investigates the influence of social networks on the satisfaction and loyalty of online game users. We gather the resulting questionnaires written by all respondents and compare social networks of users in the online game world. Social networks of online game users influence a sense of community. In consequence, the community sense influences the satisfaction and loyalty of online game users, respectively. Therefore, the companies which produce an online game and provide various services to users should consider the social networks and communities of their game users. Especially they have to try to manage the users who are the opinion leaders of the online game. If the companies make good relationships with users who are the opinion leaders of the online game, they would easily improve the loyalty of ordinary users by performing word-of-moth marketing of the users' opinions concerning about the online game.

To get a better profit, standalone mobile game market shifts network-based mobile game. Currently, most of the game platform are separated into mobile to mobile, desktop to desktop, and console to console. Multi platform network game has a diverse problems including consistency control, object management technique, and bandwidth inconsistency. n this paper, we will introduce a multi-platform arcade game "Push-Push", which is played on desktop to mobile environment. The game guarantees realtime play between heterogeneous machine users and game item sharing between two platforms. e will focus n the issues of the 3rd generation multi platform games and propose some techniques or solving these problems. Our server database is implemented on MS SQL database, also the desktop programming tool is Visual Basic, and WIPI(Wireless Internet Platform or Interoperability) as a mobile platform.

In this paper, we propose a win-win network operating platform for mobile games. The characteristics of the service structure suggested is to form a marketing network that can influence the mobile game market by linking with the mobile game industry, and the excellent game content of the game developer in the industrial complex may not disappear. We also would like to propose a network operating platform that would help it enter the market area steadily. The proposed platform technology is used to distribute rapidly through a win-win network between game companies and publishers. When new games are commercialized, they can support continuous target marketing through various data indicators and analytics by the developed platform. In particular, G-Cross marketing strategy is considered to be a low-cost, high-efficiency marketing method in that it can provide users with information about new games by utilizing the given game infrastructure and utilize the user group possessed by each game company.

This study focused on design and implementation of Mobile 3D Bluetooth Game Engine based on OpenGL-ES. In Mobile 3D network game so far, there is a form the mainstream of wireless inter-net game using WAP and VM. But, VM game we popular because of an excessive communication expense problem for this mobile network game that occur when connect to wireless internet as point out to problem by it, that is, stand-alone game are very popular. This study introduce a mobile 3D Bluetooth Game Engine which is based on mobile 3D standard using OpenGL-ES to solve a problem like mobile network game generally that occur when connect to take pleasure a wireless internet from some people into a short distance. When the number of concurrent packet datum by Bluetooth terminal transfers to each other, we shows that the proposed scheduling scheme for enhancing the process speed up on Bluetooth.
