E-participation is the term referring to the use of information and communication technologies to political participation by enabling citizens to connect with one another. Because e-participation systems are already constructed and operated, continuous usage is regarded as a major concern for successful e-participation. E-participation systems should guarantee ease of use, user satisfaction, and high quality. In addition, measuring the quality of e-participation systems will provide a useful strategy. This paper suggests a methodology for measuring quality of experience of the e-participation system and computing the quality score. We apply two concepts of usability measurement method and quality of experience that are most suitable. We provide the target of measurement,, the construct of quality of experience, the method of experiment and analysis of data, and the scoring method of quality of experience.

The second one is to propose the successful operational strategy through analyzing the factors affecting the financial and non-financial performance of websites. A framework of research model including above factors is developed and tested statistically. The data are collected from Internet website experts of 80 Korean firms through survey. The main results of this research are as follows. First, in information-providing websites, the community factor is regarded as the most important factor But for the Improvement of the performance, not only community factor but also user interface, customization, total quality and playfulness factors should be regarded as important factors equally. Second, in product-providing websites, customization, total quality and visual design factors are regarded as important factors. But for the improvement of the performance, community and visual design factors should be regarded as important factors. Third, in service-providing websites, user interface, customization and community factors should be regarded as important factors in order to improve the performance.

HoQ (House of Quality) provides an effective tool not only to arrange and evaluate VoC (Voice of Customers) and VoE (Voice of Engineers), but also to link and combine VoC and VoE, thereby presenting explicit directions for quality improvement. There have been, however, few researches on the HoQ framework in the IT industry. The case study discussed here serves an illustration of the applicability and usefulness of the HoQ approach to website quality improvement. The proposed HoQ framework shows great potentials since customers needs are explicitly considered in the framework, and it helps website administrators develop better web services by providing guidelines for reengineering the website operations.

User Generated Content(이하 UGC)는 웹사이트 이용자에 의해 생산된 콘텐츠를 일컫는 말로, 미디어 조직에 속하지 않은 일반인들의 비직업적 활동의 산물로서 웹 공간에 공표한 콘텐츠를 의미한다. 본 연구는 UGC가 활성화되기 위해서 풀어야 할 과제를 도출하고, 도출된 요인을 바탕으로 개선된 형태의 UGC 웹 서비스 품질(Web Service Quality)의 최적화된 모형을 제시하고자 한다. UGC 웹서비스 품질은 정보성, 디자인, 통신환경, 커뮤니티, 실재감, 보안성 등의 6가지 요인으로 나누어 고객 만족도와 고객 충성도에 미치는 영향을 조사하였고, 고객 만족도와 고객 충성도 간에 매개 변수로서 관여도를 두어 고객 만족도와 고객 충성도간의 영향 요인을 온라인상 UGC 사용 및 이용 경험이 있는 사용자 총 355명을 대상으로 설문조사를 통해 연구하였다. 연구 결과, UGC 웹서비스 품질 요인으로 정보성, 디자인, 통신환경, 커뮤니티, 실재감, 보안성은 모두 고객 만족도에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 고객 만족도는 고객 충성도에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있었으며, 고객 만족도 또한 관여도에 영향을 미친다. 매개 변수로서 관여도는 고객 충성도에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다.
