Many web-based Information systems require degrees of adaptation of the system's user interfaces to different client devices, users and tasks. We describe a new approach to providing adaptable client interfaces for web-based Information systems that allow a developer to specify a web-based interface using a high-level mark-up language. At run-time this single interface description is used to automatically provide for multiple web devices This approach allows developers to much more easily construct and maintain web-based user interfaces than other current approaches.

본 연구는 데스크탑 PC 환경에서 사용될 수 있는 다양한 적응형 메뉴 인터페이스의 사용성을 평가한다. 선택 빈도에 따라 자동으로 변화하는 2가지 방식의 Adaptive menu와 사용자가 메뉴 내에서 원하는 항목의 위치를 직접 변경하는 Adaptable menu의 사용성을 일반적으로 많이 이용되는 Traditional menu와 비교하기 위해 사용자를 동원한 평가 실험을 수행하였다. Adaptive menu에는 선택 빈도가 높은 메뉴 항목이 메뉴의 상단으로 이동하는 Adaptive split menu와 자주 선택되는 항목이 굵은 글씨로 표현되는 Adaptive style menu가 포함된다. 각 방식의 적응형 메뉴가 자주 선택되는 메뉴 항목의 변화에 따라 얼마나 민감하게 영향을 받는지 비교하기 위해, 두 개의 각기 다른 선택 빈도 분포가 이용되었다. 각 실험 조건 별로 사용자가 메뉴 항목을 선택하는 데 걸린 시간과 오류 회수를 측정하였으며, 피실험자로 하여금 시인성, 효율성, 전반적 선호도 등의 주관적인 만족도를 평가하도록 하였다. 각각의 종속 변수들은 분산 분석(ANOVA), Chi-square test, Friedman test 등의 기법을 이용해 분석되었다. 분석 결과, Adaptable menu가 다른 방식의 메뉴들에 비해 수행도와 만족도 모두 높은 것으로 나타났으며, Adaptive split menu는 상대적으로 현실적인 조건 하에서 큰 효용을 갖지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. Adaptive style menu는 수행도 측면에서는 일반적인 메뉴와 큰 차이가 없었지만, 자주 선택되는 항목을 쉽게 파악할 수 있게 해 주고, 선택 빈도의 변화에도 민감하지 않기 때문에 사용자들에게 선호되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 데스크탑 PC의 적응형 메뉴 설계에 대한 이용될 수 있으며, 추후 휴대용 정보기기의 적응형 메뉴에 대한 사용성 연구의 기초 자료로도 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

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.

많은 웹 기반 정보시스템은 다양한 클라이언트 장치와 사용자, 사용자 작업에 대한 시스템 유저 인터페이스의 적합성을 요구한다. 본 논문에서는 개발자가 high-level mark-up 언어를 사용하여 다양한 장치와 사용자, 사용자 작업에 적합한 웹 기반 인터페이스를 명세할 수 있도록 하는 접근방법을 제시하고자 한다. 본 시스템을 통한 단일 인터페이스 명세는 실행 시에 다양한 웹 장치에 대한 인터페이스를 자동으로 제공함으로써 시스템 개발에 유연성과 일관성을 부여할 수 있게 된다.

Nowadays personal users create a variety of multi-media contents and share them with others through various devices over the Internet since the concept of user created content (UCC) has been widely accepted as a new paradigm in today's multi-media market, which has broken the boundary of contents providers and consumers. This paradigm shift has also introduced a new business model that makes it possible for them to create their own multi-media contents for commercial purpose. This paper proposes a tangible virtual studio using augmented reality to author multi-media contents easily and intuitively for personal broadcasting and personal content generation. It provides a set of tangible interfaces and devices such as visual markers, cameras, movable and rotatable arms carrying cameras, and miniaturized set. They can offer an easy-to-use interface in an immersive environment and an easy switching mechanism between tangible environment and virtual environment. This paper also discusses how to remove inconsistency between real objects and virtual objects during the AR-enabled visualization with a context-adaptable tracking method. The context-adaptable tracking method not only adjusts the locations of invisible markers by interpolating the locations of existing reference markers, but also removes a jumping effect of movable virtual objects when their references are changed from one marker to another.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a small avionics unit based on soft CPU. A small avionics unit is developed with the soft CPU which can be wholly implemented in FPGA using logic synthesis. Design and integration of a modular architecture for versatile, reconfigurable and re-adaptable is presented with the Nios-II processor. To gain modular architecture, both at main board and sub-board level, attention has been paid to the selection of interfaces and an adequate data and power bus.

This study proposes an integration model of information retrieval systems using a standard distributed object computing technology in digital library environments. In the proposed integration model called DDIRIORB, the middleware broker based on CORBA is designed for the transparent access to the distributed information repositories and the consistent view of the information retrieval by applying 239.50 protocol. The DDIRIORB is an adaptable open architecture that allows for the following benefits : bibliographic and abstract information retrieval simultaneously, interoperability between application servers and clients, consistent view of search results, complexity reduction of integration interfaces, and easy to use.

We propose a seamless IPTV transport technology of mobile device. This technology uses multiple interfaces of wireless communication on mobile device. This proposal for transportation of mobile IPTV contents is more mobile and adaptable than other wireless technologies that are currently being used. Algorithm of proposed technology is as follow. When the signal strength of the connected wireless network interface of mobile device is getting lower than specified level, another wireless network interface is connected to continue downloading the IPTV contents in advance. Another connection is maintained until the signal strength of the first connected interface is stable or the interface is connected to another base station (or AP) that have good signal strength. For more seamless services, we consider classifying the packets of mobile IPTV and using dynamic content quality select techniques. Dynamic content quality selection is based on notifying transfer rate to the content delivery network (CDN) server. The proposed technology is expected to use efficiently with both mobile IPTV and the transportation of mobile P2P/P4P.
