This paper presents MIDAS (Media Interaction Design Authoring System), an authoring toolkit for designers and artists to develop working prototypes in new interaction design projects. Field research were conducted to identify the requirements and a case study of designing new interactive products was carried out to examine the feasibility of the new tool. MIDAS provides easier ways of integrating hardware and software, to manage a wide range of electric input and output elements and to employ 3D Augmented Reality technology within conventional multimedia authoring tools, such as Director and Flash, which are popularly used by designers. MIDAS was used in case study projects of design education as well as by voluntary designers for evaluation. From the result of case studies, it was found that many design projects were successfully accomplished using MIDAS. Designers who participated in the projects reported that MIDAS not only helped them to concentrate more on ideation but also was very easy to use as they implemented the physical interface concepts without advanced engineering skills. It is expected that MIDAS can also support prototyping in interactive media an, tangible user interface development and related human computer interaction fields.

This research, we will begin our analysis of the types of research example of designers by the linguistic studies of products form. Specially, we had a mind to generate the linguistic concept of products form by the linguistic relations between tools and thinking, and analysed how activate the roles of form language in linguistic and non-linguistic areas. We understood the relations of design process about idea generation, same means of interpretation of form and the generation of form concept, by using of the roles of form language made in design process. We showed the research examples of Enzo Mari and the origins of form language in view point of design history. Also, we classified the form linguistic concerns of designers and scholars interested in design areas by dividing various factors in view point of language. Finally, through the process of this classification, the researches of form language call for further study, as more the examples of detailed design practises and the individualized form language of products than systematic researches and abstract theories about products, and emphasized this viewpoint, we suggest a going-on research theme, the individualized products' differences of form language and concerns viewpoint of inter-culture, the concept generation of form language of products can be inter-coexistent.

Design sector, one of the key factors defining national competitiveness and one of the creative industry, needs multi-functional and differentiated designers as its structure has changed to knowledge-intensive industry. Design sector is now following the trend of social change through frequent exchanges and joint researches with other sectors. However, education for human resource nurturing in the sector falls far short of social demand for change. As the industry still focuses on educating modeling issue handlers, the problems of excessive supply of human resources in particular sector and imbalance of supply and demand of human resources are adding extra difficulties to the already competitive designer employment market. Against this backdrop, this study recognized that design service sector, which began to be established as a new industry sector, has potential of becoming one of the new domains of movement for designers, explained the necessity of education in the field, and specified practical contents of design work. Also, It analyzed work contents of design service sector, classified them into each stage, and presented them to use in design professional nurturing education.
