The social network service is the bidirectional media that all of the users are be able to directly produce, process, and distribute the information without distinction of the producer and consumer. Over increasing the users rapidly, the users are be able to obtain and share the various information, but the problems occur due to the spread of unreliable information on the service. Moreover, it is spreading the problems violating the privacy and decreasing the reliability of the users by exploiting the open environment. Therefore, sensitive information can be delivered only to users which information producer can trust, and the users should get the information from the trustworthy users. Due to this necessity, it needs the efficient method can evaluates the reliability of the users. In this paper, we define the reliability in the service, make the trust parameter by using the function of the service, and propose the dynamic user reliability evaluation scheme evaluating the reliability of users. We draw the trust range on the reliability of users by analyzing the proposed reliability evaluation scheme.

Recently, rapid innovation of Smartphone is changing the paradigm of our daily life. Smartphone users, opinion experts more than 99 percent of the economically active population is using, it has reached the saturation past the early stages of formation. Smartphone is equipped with a general purpose OS possible the implementation of high performance environment similar level as a personal computer. Also, it is a mobile communication terminal scalable which can be removed or installed various applications. Such extensibility, it is possible to use different applications through the Apps store. In addition, it is also possible various services which are location based service. However, these services also benefit many but it also has a disadvantage of invasion of privacy and disclosure of personal information. In this research, we aim to analyze factors influencing on perceived value and risk in location based service of Smartphone. In addition, we aim to analyze the causal relationship with perceived value and risk in satisfaction and recommendation intention. This study suggests practical and theoretical implications based on the results.

In thls Paper, we Propose a new scheme, protecting information about the location of a mobile user against attacks from inside users of the mobile communication, especially the network providers. There have already been some proposals about how to protect location information of user in mobile communication environments〔1-5〕. Among them, Kesdogan et al.〔2, 3〕 proposed a new method, using so-called temporary pseudonyms and also described protection method against a passive and an active attack of network providers. However, the description of protection method against the active attack between the two is not clear. Moreover, there is an additional load that it should append a reachability manager〔1, 6〕 to the proposed system. Therefore, we propose a new scheme improving the above method of Kesdogan et al. and analyze its security and effectiveness.

Decentralized Identity is based on the concept of self-sovereign identity, in which holders manage and provide their own credentials. However, a procedure is required to obtain credentials from issuers, and there is a risk of mess personal information leaking due to negligence of the issuers. In this paper, we propose a peer decentralized identity system based on Peer DID technology that allows only participants to verify their identity in 1:1 or 1:N small groups by matching the holder with the issuer. It is directly connected to a mobile device using short-range wireless communications such as bluetooth, and the holders create and provide their own credentials in person to the other party, thus fully realizing the self-sovereignty identity. The proposed system can simplify the identification process, improve security and privacy, and reduce costs. Furthermore, an extended architecture is possible to connect the proposed system and the distributed ledger to identify users in other domains. In the future, based on various technologies, it is also necessary to expand research on identity systems that can be utilized for human-to-thing and things-to-things authentication.

This study investigates the relationship between controllability, severity, unrealistic optimism and risk perception of risk factors related to location - based SNS services for smartphone users. For this purpose, I surveyed university students who had experience using location - based SNS service. The main results are as follows. First, controllability has a statistically significant effect on unrealistic optimism. Second, Severity had a statistically significant negative impact on unrealistic optimism. Third, Controllability did not have a statistically significant effect on risk perception, Fourth, Severity did not have a statistically significant effect on perceived risk. Fifth, Unrealistic optimism had a statistically significant negative impact on perception of risk. The results of this study will contribute to the prevention of privacy incidents and the protection of smartphone users by using location - based SNS service. On the one hand, future research will need to look at the relationship between unrealistic optimism and risk prevention or coping behavior.

With the proliferation of information technology communication and smart device, the environment where contents are produced and distributed is changing. People can use the contents quickly and easily, and the content industry is attracting attention and creating newly added value by converging with other industries. Accordingly, there is a need for content-related companies to understand the quality of content perceived by users in order to succeed in content, and to use it strategically. Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship between content quality factors, user satisfaction, and recommendation intention through empirical analysis based on an IS success model. The analysis was conducted using smartPLS3.0 based on a total of 301 survey responses. As a result of the study, it was found that content usefulness, accessible system quality, convenient system quality, service provider trust, and interaction had a significant effect on user's satisfaction. Perceived privacy protection had a significant effect on user satisfaction and recommendation intention. Lastly, it was found that user satisfaction had a significant effect on recommendation intention. The results of this study are expected to provide useful information and therefore content companies can understand about the quality perceived by users.

There's a controversy about an invasion of privacy which includes a leakage of private information and linking of user's behavior on internet. Although many solutions for this problem are proposed, we think anonymous authentication, authorization, and payment mechanism is the best solution for this problem. In this paper, we propose an effective anonymity-based method that achieves not only authentication but also authorization. Our proposed method uses anonymous qualification certificate and group signature method as an underlying primitive, and combines anonymous authentication and qualification information. An eligible user is legitimately issued a group member key pair through key issuing process and issued some qualification certificates anonymously, and then, he can take the safe and convenience web service which supplies anonymous authentication and authorization. The qualification certificate can be expanded according to application environment and it can be used as payment token.

An anonymous encrypted communication networks that make it difficult to identify the trace of a user's access by passing through several virtual computers and/or networks, such as Tor, provides user and data privacy in the process of Internet communications. However, when it comes to abuse for inappropriate purposes, such as sharing of illegal contents, arms trade, etc. through such anonymous encrypted communication networks, it is difficult to detect and take appropriate countermeasures. In this paper, by extending the website fingerprinting technique that can identify access to a specific site even in anonymous encrypted communication, a method for specifying and classifying service types of websites for not only well-known sites but also unknown sites is proposed. This approach can be used to identify hidden sites that can be used for malicious purposes.

This paper presents a landscape design proposal for the Kyeongsang National University Hospital in Changwon, Kyeongsangnam-do. The site is located at 555 Samjeongja-dong, Seongsan-gu, Changwon, Kyeongsangnam-do, and its area is approximately $79,743.1m^2$. The goal of the design was to create a landscape that helps the patients' recovery and public well-being as well as respects the surrounding environment. In order to achieve this goal, three design subjects were considered: maximizing the healing functions of the landscape, promoting ecologically regenerative landscape, and increasing the aesthetic value of the landscape based on the local context. For the healing aspect, first, therapeutic plants were carefully selected and various healing programs were introduced to the open space area such as the sensory garden, meditative space, the medicinal herb garden, outdoor acupressure treatment facilities, remedial playground etc. In addition, as the importance of patient's privacy is emphasized in research, the space and circulation patterns were divided according to the characteristics of the users. For ecological consideration, the design proposed to preserve and extend the existing ridgeline with pine forest, and recover the natural water system and recycle the water for the landscape management. For the aesthetic experience of the people, in contrast to the surrounding evergreen forest, diverse deciduous and flowering plants were introduced to arouse a sense of the season, and fruit bearing trees for wildlife to create a specific mood of being in nature so that people can listen to the songs of the birds and watch squirrels play etc. In addition, all the spaces and facilities were designed and placed according to universal design principles so that there would be no barrier for the patients to use them. Also, a sustainable management scheme was suggested to maintain the landscape in ecological and economical ways.
