From the perspective of client-oriented administration, the study introduces the basic structure of Urban Inormation System (UIS) and examines problems and new strategies of UIS in Korean local governments. The study selects five metropolitan cities for a case study. According to this case study, UIS in Korea are focused on AM/FM and internally used only by practitioners. No government surveyed what their citizens want to get from UIS. To solve these problems, the study proposes developing strategies for client-oriented UIS as follows. First, local governments could use policy delphi technique to sum up the citizens' needs on UIS. Second, they need to pay more attention to the diversity and transmutability of administration zone and consider the importance of the connection between administration zone and attribute data collected on them. Third, UIS needs to keep a balance between AM/FM and living GIS. Fourth, internet UIS needs to be constructed which enables citizens' access to UIS more easily. Finally, GIS education and client-oriented administrative education need to be combined to improve government employees' mind for UIS.

The Purpose of this study is to provide an effective way of developing GIS to UIS at the local level. For this purpose, the study typologically reviews the developing processes of UIS and utilizes a case study as research method. As the case, the study selects three types of UIS such as FM based UIS(Kwacheon), Urban Planning based UIS(Cheungju), and LIS based UIS(Taegu Nam-Gu). Based on these three UISs, the study concludes as follows. First, the developing process of GIS to UIS began with isolated approach through integrated model and finally to internet UIS. Second, UISs follows similar processes to that of GIS construction. Third, local governments focus on the development of FM based UIS of which construction budget is financed by the central government. Based on these findings, the study provides policy alternatives for the successful construction of UIS.

최근 웹 기반 GIS는 자료의 공유가 폐쇄적인 로컬 GIS 시스템에서 벗어나 대용량의 자료를 손쉽게 인터넷을 통하여 서로 주고 받을 수 있어서 이용속도가 아주 빠르게 확산되고 있다. 그러나, 현재 웹 상에서 작동되는 GIS 시스템은 2차원 매핑(mapping)이나, 위치정보 안내서비스 위주의 시스템으로, 실제 업무에 적용하기 위한 자료의 전송 및 분석에 제약이 많다. 특히, 본 연구에서 대상으로 하는 지하시설물은 지하공간의 불가시성으로 인해 기존의 2차원적인 관리로는 효과적인 관리가 어렵기 때문에, 지하시설물을 3차원으로 시각화하고, 분석, 관리해주는 도구가 절실히 필요한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 현재까지의 인터넷 GIS기술과 지하시설물의 관리에 대한 현황 및 문제점을 먼저 기술하고, 기존의 상용 GIS 시스템에 구축된 지하시설물 데이터를 웹 상에서 3차원으로 시각화 및 분석 정보를 제공하기 위한 3차원 데이터 구조를 설계하고, 네트워크 상에서 3차원 데이터 및 공간 분석 결과를 효율적으로 전송하기 위한 3차원 공간 데이터 서버를 설계 및 구현하였다. 또한 JAVA와 VRML 등의 인터넷 기술을 응용하여 웹 상에서 지하시설물 데이터의 3차원 시각화 및 능동적인 조작 및 관리, 분석이 가능한 3차원 지하시설물 관리시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다.

The elderly population is rapidly increasing worldwide, but many face challenges in using digital tools like the Internet due to health and incapacity issues. Existing online search user interfaces (UIs) often overlook the specific usability needs of the elderly. This study proposes an adaptable web search UI model for the elderly, based on their perspectives, to enhance search performance and usability. The proposed UI model is evaluated through comparative usability testing with 20 participants, comparing it to the Google search UI. Effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction are measured using task completion time, error rate, and subjective preferences. The results show significant differences (p > 0.05) between the proposed web search UI model and the Google search UI. The proposed UI model achieves higher subjective satisfaction levels, indicating better alignment with the needs and preferences of elderly users. It also reduces task completion time, indicating improved efficiency, and decreases the error rate, suggesting enhanced effectiveness. These findings emphasize the importance of considering the unique usability needs of the elderly when designing search UIs. The proposed adaptable web search UI model offers a promising approach to enhance the digital experiences of elderly users. This study lays the groundwork for further development and refinement of adaptable web search UI models that cater to the specific needs of elderly users, enabling designers to create more inclusive and user-friendly search interfaces for the growing elderly population.

The popularization of smartphones allows people to instantly get the information that they want, through mobile apps, including financial services, movies and public transportation reservations, games and shopping. Furthermore, leisure activities through overseas travel are increasing due to the improvement of the living standards of people. These increases in overseas travel and the use of mobile apps lead to the increased use of mobile travel apps when booking tour packages. Although there are many studies on the usability assessment and user interface improvement for mobile apps, studies on the usability assessment for mobile travel apps are limited. We tested the usability for mobile travel apps to present some suggestions for improvements so that anyone can purchase travel packages easily and simply. We selected the top three mobile travel apps on Rankey.com that have different UIs. The heuristic method was used to evaluate usability. We present a better UI to allow users to use the app functions more easily by analyzing user interaction, ease of learning, readability, efficiency, and satisfaction for the entire use.

omputer and the Internet (online) services have rapidly been developed and evolved over the last 10 years. They also reduce time and costs in many parts of human life. Yet, a range of adoption and expression has been segmented as a piece of information is diversified. Particularly, while this segmentized information can be integrated according to fields, it is hard for users to aware it at a glance. Therefore, this study aims to improve and analyze programs that have been developed in a variety of ways from the existing unified design of GUI as the UIs of the Internet and programs have become accentuated recently so that it could suggest the importance of user-oriented UI designs.

A bird's-eye view is an elevated view of an object from above, with a perspective as though the observer were a bird, often used in the making of blueprints, floor plans and maps. It can be used under severe weather conditions when visibility is poor. Under low visibility environments, drivers can communicate each other using V2V communication to get each vehicle's status to prevent collision and other accidents. Ubiquitous transportation sensor networks(u-TSN) and its application are emerging rapidly as an exciting new paradigm to provide reliable and comfortable transportatione services. The ever-growing u-TSN and its application will provide an intelligent and ubiquitous communication and network technology for traffic safety area.

Mobile shooting games are a representative example of PC games being transferred as they are. In the most mobile shooting games, joystick-like UI used in PC games have been moved to touch buttons, but the display is small, so the user's fingers cover the game screen, which is inconvenient. In mobile shooting games, in order to overcome the limitations of the small display and increase the immersion of the game, this paper introduces a user interface that integrates character movement and aiming, and intuitive UIs such as display rotation, shaking, and vibration. In addition, by analyzing the match process for each round, the character's insufficient abilities are identified and synergies to supplement the abilities are recommended in order to add fun to the game. This paper proved that the proposed goals are achieved by actually designing and implementing a mobile shooting game with the proposed functions on an Android smartphone.
