지금까지의 소프트웨어 기반 분산 공유 메모리(이하 DSM이라 칭함)시스템은 유닉스 워크스테이션 클러스터를 목표로 하는 것이 대부분이었다. 그러나 현재 Windows-NT 는 서버급 시스템과 PC 모두를 위한 운영체제로서 유닉스와 더불어 널리 사용되고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 Windows-NT 워크스테이션 클러스터 환경을 위한 DSM 시스템을 구현하고, 구현된 DSM 시스템의 성능 평가 결과를 제시한다. 구현된 DSM 시스템은 Win32 API와 표준 실행-시간 라이브러리를 이용해 구현되었기 때문에 모든 Windows-NT 워크스테이션에서 실행 가능하며 , 프로그래머는 몇 라인의 코드 추가만으로 DSM 시스템 상에서 수행되는 병렬 응용 프로그램을 작성할 수 있다. 워크스테이션 간의 상호연결망으로 범용성을 위해 이더넷 LAN을 지원하였고, 아울러 성능 향상을 위해 기가비트 SAN(System Area Network)도 지원하였다. 기가비트 SAN을 위한 하드웨어로는 Dolphin 사의 PCI-SCI 타입 제품인 Clustar를 사용하였다. 우리는 성능 평가를 통해, 구현된 DSM 시스템이 정확히 동작함은 물론 확장성이 뛰어나다는 것을 확인하였다. 특히 , 기가비트 SAN을 사용할 경우 일부 병렬 벤치 마크 프로그램에서는 노드 수 증가에 따라 성능이 거의 선형적으로 향상된다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 논문이 기여하는 바는 Windows-NT 기반 소프트웨어 DSM 시스템의 원천 기술을 확보함으로써 향후 Windows-NT 워크스테이션 클러스터 환경에서의 분산 및 병렬 처리 연구에 도움을 줄 수 있다는 점이다.

PBFT (Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerant) is a consensus algorithm that can achieve consensus by resolving unintentional and intentional faults in a distributed network environment and can guarantee high performance and absolute finality. However, as the size of the network increases, the network load also increases due to message broadcasting that repeatedly occurs during the consensus process. Due to the characteristics of the PBFT algorithm, it is suitable for small/private blockchain, but there is a limit to its application to large/public blockchain. Because PBFT affects the performance of blockchain networks, the industry should test whether PBFT is suitable for products and services, and academia needs a unified evaluation metric and technology for PBFT performance improvement research. In this paper, quantitative evaluation metrics and evaluation frameworks that can evaluate PBFT family consensus algorithms are studied. In addition, the throughput, latency, and fault tolerance of PBFT are evaluated using the proposed PBFT evaluation framework.

Recently manufacturing companies have used PLC control programs popularly for their automated production systems. Since the life cycle of production process is not so long, the change of the production lines occur frequently. Most of changes happen with modification of the position information and control process of the equipment. PLC control program is also modified based on the fundamental process. Therefore, to verify new PLC program by configuring virtual space according to real environment is needed. In this paper we show a logical modeling method, based on Timed-FSA useful for sequence control and dead-lock prevention. There is a problem wasting user's labor and time when defining a variety of states in a device. To overcome this problem, we propose an extended I-O model based on existing methods by adding a token concept of Petri Nets. Also we will show the usability of the extended I-O modeling through user study.

In order to extend FOO, this research has the object to demonstrate existing the difference of transferred essence and value between the types of factories(Original factory vs Extended factory). A safety product should save consumers from possible harm or risk, but it sometimes gives directly some damage to consumers. For example, like the issue of a germicide problem in 2016, a germicide killed consumers because of harmful chemistry even it should kept their health. This situation refer to 'Safety product betrayal', we expected that safety product betrayal presence/absence conditions moderate the relationship between types of factories, transferred essence and value. We selected a car air-bag as a safety product for study and implemented one study with total 213 participants. As a result, the participants evaluated the value of an air-bag manufactured throughout an original factory higher than the value of an air-bag manufactured throughout an extended factory. Futhermore, they evaluated the transferred brand essence of an original factory's air-bag higher than an extended factory's. However, in the safety product betrayal presence condition, the difference of value and transferred essence between an original factory and an extend factory was disappeared. Indeed, once consumers experienced or saw safety product betrayal, they avoided to buy or use safety products. Therefore, consumers evaluated the value and transferred essence of betrayed safety products is low without the types of manufacturing factories. From the past to now, there was no paper about the relationship between the types of manufacturing factories(Orignal factory vs Extended factory) and safety product betrayal in Korea. Therefore, this research on FOO and safety product betrayal can give new theoretical and operational contribution. In the conclusion, we discussed the contribution of the study results and proposed the limitation and future study.

과거에는 시스템이 돌아가기만 하면 되지 편리함이나 사용자의 취향을 고려하는 것은 모두 사치라는 생각이 있었다. 그러나 현재는 단순히 사용성에 근거한 시스템만으로는 그 시스템이 좋은 시스템이라고 평가 받기에는 부족한 면이 있다. 이제는 시스템이 HCI 관점에서 평가되며, 이때 시스템개발의 최종목적은 단순히 동작하는 시스템을 만드는 것이 아니라 사용자들에게 최적의 경험을 제공할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하는 것이다. 이러한 최적의 경험은 시스템과의 상호작용이 유용하고, 편리하며, 직관적이어야 얻을 수 있다. 일반적으로 TV 리모컨은 화면에 미리 지정된 부분들을 순차적으로 이동하는 간접 이동 방식으로 매우 간단한 인터랙션만을 제공해 준다. 본 논문에서는 사용자에게 보다 직관적인 인터페이스를 제공해주기 위해 리모컨의 기능을 확장한 프로젝터 기반의 가상 리모컨을 제안한다. 가상리모컨은 사용자가 원하는 위치에 생성될 수 있으며, 기존의 TV 리모컨과 같이 미리 지정된 메뉴 사이를 이동해서 제한된 선택을 하는 것이 아니라, 보다 직관적인 인터페이스를 통해 직접 기기를 동작시키는 가상 체험을 느끼면서 조작할 수 있도록 해 준다. 실험을 통해, 기존의 TV 리모컨이 일정한 학습을 필요로 했던 것과는 달리, 체험자들은 사전 학습없이 TV의 주요 기능을 가상리모컨을 사용함으로써 쉽고 빠르게 컨트롤할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) is an alternative to the paper price label attached to merchandise shelves and is attracting attention as a retail IoT infrastructure that will lead the innovation of offline retail outlets. In general, when introducing a substitute product, the company tends to consider the financial factors such as the efficiency of the investment cost compared to the existing product or the reduction of the operating cost. However, considering only financial factors in the decision-making process, it may not properly reflect the various values associated with corporate strategy and the requirements of stakeholders. In this study, 8 evaluation items (Investment Cost, Operating Cost, Quality Level, Customer Management, Job Efficiency, Maintenance, Functional Expandability, and Store Image) based on BSC's 4 perspectives (Financial, Customer, Internal Business Process, Learning & Growth), and using AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) to measure the priorities of evaluation items for domestic small supermarket employees. As a result of the research, priority was given in order of Customer, Learning & Growth, Internal Business Process, and Financial aspects among the evaluation items for adopting the price label, and the electronic price label was supported with higher importance than the paper price label. In contrast to the priorities of the financial aspects of most prior studies, the items of Learning & growth and customer perspectives have relatively high priorities. In particular, respondents classified by job group, The priorities of the 8 evaluation items were different among the groups. These results are expected to provide implications for both companies (retail outlets) and ESL providers (manufacturers and service providers) who are considering the introduction of ESL.

This study explores the impact of physical characteristics (e.g., shape, color, material, size, weight, technical features) of smart wristbands and smartwatches on consumers' perceived functional, aesthetic, and symbolic values using an extended technology acceptance model. An online survey was conducted with adult residents of the United States who had experience using smart wristbands or smartwatches. Participants were asked about various physical characteristics of products they had used in the past year or were currently using, and their evaluations of these characteristics. The results revealed that the shape of the front display shape significantly influenced symbolic value, with circle shape and square shpae showing significantly higher symbolic value than rectangle shape. Wristband materials also had a significant impact on symbolic value, with metal and leather showing higher symbolic value among various materials. Additionally, an increase in product size was associated with higher symbolic value. Moreover, certain technical features such as activity tracker, alarm clock, and distance tracking influenced perceived functional value, while functions like time display, GPS, and email influenced perceived aesthetic value. Pedometer, GPS, and email were found to enhance perceived symbolic value. These findings provide valuable insights into consumer preferences for smart wristbands and smartwatches, serving as valuable information for product improvement and new product development.

Multi-functional devices was originally an equipment performing image processing, but function transmitting image data digitized by combining fax function and function of network are added and it was rapidly developed. Also, functions of internet application, application expansion, remote sharing and image treatment were added to multi-functional devices. But, multi-functional devices can cause security vulnerability such as data exposure, eavesdropping, etc. because of the threatening by network connection. Therefore, common criteria of multi-functional devices are necessary, but there is no protection profile for multi-functional devices now. Therefore, concrete standards of evaluation are not applied to evaluate secure for products, so it was difficult to maintain uniformity of evaluation quality. Therefore, this paper developed protection profile for multi-functional devices based on common criteria of evaluation so as to analyze threats of multi-functional devices and use secure multi-functional devices.

Products and/or services should be objectively verified in terms of the technological and use-conditional considerations before entering a market. Every organization or company tries to find the better procedure and method for checking the core needs of customers based on their experience in the market and looks for continuous ways to evaluate the power of products and services(PoP). They also prefer the overall evaluation of indices that could reflect various customer needs, rather than a separate evaluation index for each characteristic of the product or service. S. Ko (2008) proposes a Multi-characteristics Sigma Level(MSL) that can simultaneously evaluate many characteristics of a product or service. In this research, using MSL and a new Blue Ocean Index(BOI), an application of NPS, mobile phone field test is considered from a practical and statistical point of view.
