본 연구에서는 사용성 테스트와 사용자 설문조사 단계를 거쳐 고연령계층 사용자를 고려한 통합 리모컨 버튼 레이아웃을 도출하여 고연령층의 사용편의성이 반영된 리모컨의 사용성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 일차적으로 신체, 인지심리적인 고연령층의 인간요소(human factor)들을 추출한 다음, 고연령계층 중 연령대별 남녀 사용자를 모집하여 현재 사용되는 기존의 리모컨으로 사용자에게 과제를 부과하여 사용성 테스트와 설문조사를 실시하였다. 사용성 테스트 결과를 중심으로, 통합 리모컨 버튼 레이아웃 디자인 시 반영되어야 할 필수 기능 버튼의 도출과, 버튼 배열의 최적화된 모델을 제시 할 수 있었다. 또한 이러한 과정을 통해 UI 디자인 시 지켜져야 할 세가지 요소인, 연관있는 기능의 동일요소 부여로 동작의 상호 의사소통을 고려해야한다는 것(유사성)과 유사기능간 근접배치로 사용자가 동작할 수 있는 버튼을 쉽게 이해하도록 해 주어야 한다는 것(근접성), 그리고 예상되는 연속 동작의 기능을 동선을 고려해서 배치해야 한다는 것(연속성)을 확인하였다. 마지막으로, 한 가지 기준에 의한 일률적인 버튼 배열보다 사용자의 요구사항과 인지적 한계를 반영한 그룹핑을 고려한 버튼 배열이 사용성을 높이는 중요한 요인이라는 것을 알 수 있었다.

This study focused on the transition from modularity of a mechanical construction system to the seriality in a digital production system in architecture and arguing how digital design process affects the design of surface in the contemporary architecture and development of digital technology actively intermediate surface of architecture and expressive characteristics of media on surface. The analysis of two exhibition facilities of Herzog & de Meuron expose process of fabrication in the surface design and makes possible to implementation of the concept of code to seriality which shows images employed to reveal immediate representation of the perceptual communication with humans and architecture through the role and significance of digital design techniques.

Universal Design is comprised of three main concepts known as barrier-free, adaptive and life-span design. It does not focus on accessibility for the disabled, but rather expands its breadth to the comfortable use and easy access in ail physical environments and facilities. In this study, the researcher views the present and future of universal design through the cases of kitchen design. Based on the market changes in design guidelines and the changes of time uncovered from past studies, this researcher suggests that universal design would develop through mass customization for personalized use, application of new technology and consideration of psychological aspects. Additionally, for the diffusion of universal design appropriate solution in economic cost problem, social recognition and conversion of problem cognizance in designing is needed. In Korea design models of universal design concepts are not yet in production over various fields. In order to develop and study universal design which suits our country, cultural and regional characteristics should be considered as well as physical, perceptual, psychological aspects.

The aim of this study was to suggest an enhancement of pedestrian safety through a service design process regarding urban design in new-town area. For this study, the concept, process and touchpoint, and survey design area, of the service design are reviewed as a theoretical study. According to this study, traffic signals, pedestrian environment, pedestrian overpass, and access traffic road were surveyed as touchpoints and a problem search, concept design, design building, institutional implement were analyzed as a service design process. As a result of these studies, the planning method for pedestrian safety based on service design process in terms of the external space design in a new-town area are suggested.

The TUI system Modeling Language(TML) developed in this research can be used for designing TUI system with concerning about TUI's characters. For design to be concerned about physical property of tangibles and control device and digital media, TML can be a framework to give a definition of each property and be used for designing action and reaction process separately. And it would be the guideline to represent interaction's dynamic property through showing parallel information flows among objects. Finally, for verification TML's suitability, TUI system to which TML was applied was developed.

Human thermal sensation based on a human energy balance model was analyzed in the study areas, the Changwon and Nanaimo sites, on clear days during thesummer of 2009. The climatic input data were air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and solar and terrestrial radiation. The most effective factors for human thermal sensation were direct beam solar radiation, building view factor and wind speed. Shaded locations had much lower thermal sensation, slightly warm, than sunny locations, very hot. Also, narrow streets in the Nanaimo site had higher thermal sensation than open spaces because of greater reflected solar radiation and terrestrial radiation from their surrounding buildings. Calm wind speed also produced much higher thermal sensation, which reduced sensible and latent heat loss from the human body. By adopting climatic factors into landscape architecture, the human thermal sensation analysis method promises to help create thermally comfortable outdoor areas. The method can also be used for urban heat island modification and climate change studies.

In this paper, we propose the ergonomics design method in shape design applicable which considers the user interface for railroad. This study focuses on ergonomics design and sensibility engineering design, user interface, which should be considered from the conceptual design stage of the rolling. Human's sensitivity and User Interface of railroad investigated ergonomics studies of several type. The sensibility engineering design made approach of user center design in railroad design. New design railroad to satisfaction passenger's various desire, to safety and convenient through high technology, to sufficient passenger's aesthetic sense. Therefore, we have application to properly of ergonomics design element in railroad design. we expert visual design and user interface help greatly in excellent railroad design.

Design has been proceeding to 21 century undertaking the many-sided and complicated characteristics of the modern industrialized society much more heavily comparing to past. The rapid change of technology and media of communication faces the new concept of relationship between users and environment, and newly developed material leads designers to change the way of building concept and the process of designing. Especially the important points of user-friendly and environment-friendly approaching for designing influences over choosing, controlling meterials and forming the structure and shape organically, or simply. From the tendency of chairs designed in 1990s the very adaptable new material shows both the unlimited possibility for new design is in the turn of this century, but also it can be analogized that 'the design which can make users think' will be the philosophical basis for future desigv.

Due to the dramatic increase in usage of smart phones, mobile applications offer a promising public communication channel to effect behavioral change in areas such as energy saving. For this, identifying relationships between applications and behavioral change would be useful for public institutions to formulate more effective public communication strategies. Based on a design science approach, this study examines the effect of design factors of public service-oriented mobile applications such as personalization, accessibility, and representation richness on users' cognitive and affective attitudes. Their effects on behavioral outcome are also investigated. The results of the analysis show that most design factors contribute significantly to the cognitive and affective attitudes of users. In turn, cognitive attitudes affect users' behavioral change in terms of energy saving, while affective attitudes are positively associated with the average usage time of mobile applications and behavioral changes in terms of energy saving.
