Social media is a general term for online services by which users share opinions, perspectives, and experiences. It supports interactions between users in sharing contents on it and weak ties among them play an important role in the process. This exploratory study attempts to identify crucial factors of establishing weak ties between social media users in the perspective of social network theory and uncertainty reduction theory. We collected data through diary study and in-depth interview and analyzed it following grounded theory approach. As a result, social media users more actively interacted each other or shared contents based on weak ties, compared to strong ties. In addition, similarity, self-disclosure, and relevance appeared to facilitate establishment of weak ties, by reducing psychological distance between social media users and perceived uncertainty of them.

Informatization in Korea has undergone significant changes. So far, most studies on informatization policies have been carried out just on the basis of their structural or functional backgrounds. However, actually, informatization policies have changed dynamically as a lot number of people and organizations have participated in their formulation and implementation. So, this study approaches them with an actor-network view that is distinct from but contains a chronological perspective, which other studies have overlooked so far. This approach allows us to have a clear picture of the changes in and to look into the characteristic of informatization policies from the Chun Doo Hwan government to the Lee Myung-bak government. Consequently, on the basis of the actor-network view, it is found that information and communication technologies, knowledge, and professionalism have dominated the characteristics and streams of informatization policies and brought about changes.

IT 산업의 발전과 국가의 부 창출을 위하여 정부는 'IT 839 전략'에 따라 2010년까지 BcNㆍUSNㆍIPv6 3대 IT 통신 인프라의 전국 상용망 구축을 추진하고 있다. u-센서 네트워크(USN)는 모든 사물에 전자태그(RFID)를 부착, 인터넷에 연결하여 정보를 인식 및 관리하는 네트워크를 말한다. USN 서비스는 RFID, 텔레메틱스, 그리고 지능형홈 분야 등에서 유통, 물류를 비롯하여 교통, 농축산물관리, 조달, 환경, 의료 등 다양한 산업 전반에서 창출될 것으로 보인다 RFID 태그는 전자칩을 부차하고 무선통신 기술을 이용하여 리더와 통신한다 본 고에서는 정보보호 관점에서 RFID/USN네트워크가 인터넷 수준의 보안 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 어떠한 점이 고려되어야하는지를 정리하였다. 현재 사회적으로 이슈가 되고 있는 RFID 정보보호 문제는 주로 프라이버시 측면에서 논의되어 왔다. 그러나 RFID/USN은 대규모의 RFID 태그(사물)들이 단말이 되고, IPV6, BcN 망과 연동되며, 새로이 구축되어야하는 네트워크임에도 불구하고, 아직 네트워크/서비스 정보보호 관점에서 고려해야할 것들이 무엇인가에 대한 논의가 활발하지 못했던 것으로 보인다 이러한 논지를 가지고 본 고에서는 현재 논의되고 있는 RFID 정보보호 기술의 동향을 분석하고, 네트워크 정보보호 관점에서 RFID/USN 환경에 추가되어야 할 기술적 요구사항들을 정리해 보았다.

This research is aimed at identifying the perception associated with urban regeneration and predicting policy implications of future directions by analyzing the trend of urban regeneration depicted in the mass media by utilizing SNA (Semantic-Network Analysis) techniques. As the number of articles has increased, it is noted through analysis that the interrelationships between social phenomena and issues have combined to form the meaning of urban regeneration. Overall, 'urban' and 'regeneration' keywords also appeared at different periods, with 'urban' closely related to 'regeneration' starting in 1970 when urbanization was becoming more prevalent. It was analyzed that the frequency of 'urban' appeared more frequently in the early 1990s, while the frequency of 'rural' decreased sharply. Until the 1990s, the slums and the recession that appeared as side effects of urban problem-solving policies were mostly concentrated in cities. Policy discussions were conducted with the goal of improving the physical environment of cities rather than concentrating on the surrounding rural areas. The distributions of the keywords 'development' and 'regeneration' have increased quantitatively since the 1970s, and urban polarization has exploded due to the development of the external growth of cities, mirroring the trend of accelerated environmental threats. In particular, the keywords for 'regeneration' emerged mainly related to environmental problems, which led to the need for urban regeneration, and environmentally and ecologically friendly development. The emergence of "urban," "regeneration" and "environment" as keywords having to do with urban regeneration grew in the 1990s. This suggests that urban regeneration is now linked to "environment", as that has become a social issue.

This study examined factors that prevent older adults from using computers and/or smartphones for their health information search and health management. This study conducted face-to-face survey of a total of 240 older adults aged over 65. Based on the responses of open-ended questions, this study conducted semantic network analysis. The results showed that low level of perceived usefulness(PU) (e.g., information I want to find, detailed information, and trustworthiness) and perceived ease of use(PEOU) (e.g., how to search for information, how to install applications, and visibility) are main factors that prevent older adults from using computers and/or smartphones for their health information search and health management. Furthermore, based on the results of semantic network analysis, further hierarchical regression analysis confirmed that PU and PEOU were positively associated with intention to use mobile application. Thus, the results imply that increasing older adults' PU and PEOU can promote their intention to use mobile application.

In this research, we investigated users' social capital and subjective well-being in social network games. We had Focus Group Interview(FGI) and analyzed the interview data. Our finding is that the social capital was either decreasing or slightly increasing only between acquaintances, with the subjective well-being increasing, affected by the users' achievements, continuous caring, and interaction with NPCs, while not affected by the social capital. Our research also found the independent increase of subjective well being, not being affected by the increase of social capital.

This research has attempted to conduct meta-analysis on 605 published papers in the field of socio-nuclear studies from 1957 to 2016 in Korea through network analysis of author-provided keywords. The findings lead to several straightforward conclusions. First, socio-nuclear studies including policy research have mostly been conducted by universities, while technology developments have been led by public organizations. Second, it is apparent that the Fukushima accident has provoked major engagement among social scientists in nuclear issues as the remarkable growth of the knowledge network after 2011 signify. Third, the research topics have been diversified as a result of growing multi-disciplinary research projects. Finally, there is between sub communities in the socio-nuclear knowledge network in terms of network properties. This article provides a stepping stone for future researchers with a wealth of information concerning the status of socio-nuclear studies. For policy makers, this meta-analysis is likely to provide guidance on what we need and do not need. It remains to be seen whether the socio-nuclear knowledge network in Korea is well-structured or not. provide an impetus for comparative studies with overseas cases in order to evaluate the network and its soundness.

Since the Web is dynamic, it is necessary to analyze scholarly Web space with both quantitative and qualitative methods for better understanding of communication characteristics. In this study, we analyzed contents of pages and links to ascertain the characteristics of Korean scholarly Web space in terms of network structure and communication behavior. The result shows that the structure of the original network with all the external links remained is not much different from that of the network with activated external links only. However, the purposes of linking vary among scholarly institutions. The centrality measures correlate more strongly with the clustering coefficient than with the constraint index implying the similar explanatory power of the two types of structural indices.

최근 세계적인 기상이변으로 자연재해의 발생빈도 증가는 물론 이로 인한 피해가 점차 다양화 및 대형화되어 가고 있는 추세이다. 재난으로 인한 피해는 발생지역 피해뿐만 아니라 국가 경제 전반에 큰 영향을 미치는 특징이 있다. 우리나라의 자연재해 중 대설은 다른 자연재해에 비해 발생빈도는 낮지만 광역적인 피해를 유발하며, 피해 면적에 비해 피해액 규모가 크다. 또한 현재에는 강원권이 가장 취약한 것으로 취약성 분석 결과에서 보여주지만, 미래에는 강원권, 충청권, 호남권을 연결하는 축으로 취약지역이 확대될 것으로 전망된다. 본 연구에서는 현재 사회 전반에서 다양하게 활용되고 있는 머신러닝 기법을 이용하여 우리나라 대설피해액을 예측하는 대설피해 예측모형을 개발하고자 하였다. 머신러닝 기법으로는 랜덤포레스트, 서포트 벡터 머신, 인공신경망 기법을 이용하였고, 모형에 사용한 변수는 기상관측자료, 사회·경제적 요소 등을 활용하여 모형을 개발하였다. 결과적으로 기존연구에서 다중회귀모형을 이용하여 개발된 예측모형과 본 연구에서 3개의 머신러닝 기법으로 개발된 예측모형의 예측력을 비교 분석하였고, 예측력이 가장 높은 모형을 제시하였다. 본 연구결과를 활용하여 모형의 개선 및 데이터 품질 개선이 이루어진다면 향후 대설피해에 대한 개략적인 대비가 가능할 것으로 기대된다.
