This study tries to compare the classification systems of major internet portals and their sub-portals specialized for the children and of major online book stores. It compares and analyzes the major directories of them and suggests recommendations not only to improve their own systems but also to apply to the development for the classification systems for children's library. Some of them are: (1) The system should reflect information requests and use behaviors of the children netizen. (2) It should select the terms reflecting the children's viewpoints and expressions and suggest the guidelines by ages. (3) It should maintain the clear hierarchies and grouping for the accessability and convenience of the users. (4) It will be helpful to establish the categories to mix the subject- or concept-based categories and the activities and objects of the children. (5) It will also be helpful to establish the categories based on the curricula added by those creating the imagination and interest and to subdivide by subject.

While the amount of information exchanged through internet has dramatically increased recently, certain inefficiencies still exist with regard to the storage, distribution, and retrieval of information. As a means of improving efficiency in accessing information, many search portals provide directory services to present organized guidance to information, based on the classification schemes. This study examines the classification activities practiced by the major search portals in Korea and makes some suggestions to improve the quality of directory services.

With the rapid distribution and active usage of the Internet, information search and retrieval through Internet has become a primary form of information access. This ubiquity of information access through Internet means the increased significance of search performance offered by Internet portals, since the optimization of search performance by portal has strong implication for the effective access of information through Internet in general. In this context, this paper investigates the classification scheme used in the directory service of internet portals, which provides selected and organized access to Internet information. First, the author analyzes the deployment of directory classification of standard subdivision topics used in traditional library classification system, with emphasis on the table composed of the form and approach, which are applicable to diverse subject areas. Then, based on this analysis, he proposed a method of applying certain subdivisions of the standard subdivision to directory service of Internet portals.

The most widely used information searching method in the current internet environment is the keyword-based one, which has certain limitations in terms of precision and recall. Most major internet portals provide directory-based searching as a means to complement these limitations. However, that they adopt different classification schemes brings significant inconvenience to the users, and it consequently suggests a need to develop mapping gateway to provide cross-portal, or cross-directory information searching. In this context, this study attempts to develop a prototype system of intermediary gateway for integrated search, using the directory services of three major portals, Naver, Yahoo and Empas, and test its performance.

This study aims to perform an evaluation of directory services provided by major Korean search portals: Naver, Daum, Yahoo-Korea, and Empas. A directory service of Open Directory is also compared. These directory services are evaluated in terms of the coverage, category creation criteria, site selection criteria, breadth and depth of hierarchy, clarity and currency of category names, order of category listing, and overall classification system. The results of this study can be implemented for the development and improvement of portal's directory services. Users can refer to the results of this study in choosing directory services from search portals.

As the development of advertising industry and media the research about an advertisement get accomplished. As the result information resources called on the advertising materials are on an Increasing trend. However, it looks into the classification system In advertising field of KDC, the problems are as the follows : (1) the classification items are too incomplete, (2) the main class is badly arranged. The reason have no regard for the correlation with a science. So, it gives rise to confusion to the librarian and user. The purpose of the study is to present the improvement plan on the classification system in advertising field of KDC. In order to build the improvement plan, the four steps are utilized. The first step Is to investigate the characteristic of sciences on advertising and a type. The second one is to survey the current status of the library classification as KDC, NDC, DDC, and LCC. The third one is to analyse the classification system of library and web site on the advertising. The forth one is to grasp the problems on the classification system In advertising field of KDC.

본 연구는 정보통신기술 (ICT)의 발달과 컴퓨터의 대중화 인터넷 보급의 확산 및 상거래의 온라인화 등으로 전자상거래가 확산되고 이와 더불어 급격한 규모로 성장되고 있는 전자지불 시스템을 분석하고자 한다. 과거 전자지불시스템 자체에 대한 기술적인 연구나 전자화폐 등 세부매체에 대한 연구는 상당히 많이 진행되어 왔으나 본 연구에서는 특히 소액 전자지불시스템을 세분하여 비교연구하기 위한 체계를 제시한다. 전자지불시스템을 자체의 특성에 따라 분류한 기존의 연구에 근거하여 사용자들이 각각의 지불매체에 대해 얼마나 다르게 인식하여 어떠한 태도를 가지고 있는지에 대한 연구체계를 제시한다. 특히 최근 이슈가 되고 있는 모바일 지불시스템 등 소액 중심의 결제시스템을 사용자가 선택하는 이유와 방식에 대해 결제매체의 특성을 중심으로 기존의 결제시스템과 비교하여 분석하기 위한 연구모형을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 연구모델을 통해 향후 지불서비스 이용자들이 결제시스템을 이용하는 이유에 대해 이론적으로 체계적인 분석을 함으로써 은행 및 결제대행사 등 기존의 지불서비스 제공기관외에 이동통신사나 컨텐츠 제공업체, 포털서비스 업체 등 관련 기업과 전자지불관련 정책을 수립 집행하는 정부기관에 참고할 수 있는 연구 분석 결과 도출될 수 있을 것으로 예상한다.

The purpose of this study is to develop a faceted classification that enables the conceptualization and the organization of Korean food information. 23,470 terms were collected, categorized, and analyzed from the table of contents in 776 monographs and directory headings in portal sites related to Korean food. In order to develop the Korean food classification, common properties were analyzed in the process of categorizing terms. Then basic facets and subfacets were defined and assigned, and hierarchies among facets and concepts, citation orders, and notations were decided. As a result, the classification scheme consisted of 16 basic facets and 85 subfacets. The citation order of facets was proposed in order of Personality facet (kinds of dishes), Matter facet (materials, cooking utensils/equipment/containers, and nutrients), Energy facet (cooking processes and techniques, eating sense, type of cooking, table services, and agents of cooking), Space facet (countries/ethnic groups/geography, and eating places), Time facet (situation/purposes, season, time of meals, periods, and ages). The result of this study will be used for organizing, searching, retrieving, and providing Korean food information effectively around the world. Also, it will provide a foundation for developing subject-oriented classification using facet analysis in other disciplines.
