휴대폰의 사용이 증가하면서 이동 중 엔터테인먼트로써 모바일 게임이 부상하고 있다. 더욱이 스마트폰 보급이 확대되면서 모바일 게임 시장이 급격히 성장하고 있다. "2010년 대한민국 게임백서"를 기준으로 보면 모바일게임 시장은 연평균 10% 이상 성장해 2011년에는 시장규모가 98억 달러에 달할 것으로 예상된다. 이는 2007년에 비해 2배에 가까운 수준이다. 모바일 게임은 휴대폰이 스마트폰으로 진화하면서 고용량의 복잡한 게임도 구현이 가능해졌으며 동시에 사회적 네트워크 서비스(SNS)와의 연계되며 전 세계적으로 '모바일 생활'의 일부로 성장하는 추세이다. 모바일게임 산업은 2008년 애플이 애플리케이션 오픈마켓 앱스토어를 출시하면서 획기적인 전기를 맞이했다. 글로벌 스마트폰 모바일 프로그램 유통시장(App Store)이 열리면서 게임데이는 국내 시장을 벗어나 글로벌 시장을 대상으로 모바일 게임을 손쉽게 출시할 수 있게 되었다. 게다가 애플 앱스토어의 경우 개발자와 애플이 수익을 7 대 3으로 나눠 갖는 구조로써 이는 과거 통신업체가 독점하는 모바일 콘텐츠 채널에 게임을 공급할 때보다 개발자에게 유리한 조건이다. 현재 앱스토어 가장 많은 비중을 차지한 애플리케이션은 게임으로 게임데이는 새로운 환경변화에 발맞춰 한 단계 크게 도약할 수 있는 기회를 맞이하고 있다.

미국 Apple 사의 App-store와 같은 모바일 어플리케이션 오픈마켓이 국내의 통신사를 통하여 서비스를 하게 되었다. 이에 따라, 국내 개발자들이 어플리케이션을 개발하여 유통을 하는데 많은 관심을 가지게 되었다. 하지만 App-store의 i-Pod과 같이 단일 모델과 다르게 국내 모바일의 종류가 너무 많아서 개발자들이 모든 단말기를 테스트 해볼 수 없다. 이를 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 웹에 모바일 시뮬레이터를 탑재하여 여러 개발자들이 쉽게 모의 단말기 테스트를 할 수 있는 시스템 제안한다. 이 시스템을 통하여 개발자들이 많은 단말기에 테스트 하는 것을 간소화하고, 검증된 어플리케이션을 유통할 수 있다.

Since smart phones are changing the media for communication and its related mobile market, it is imperative to attract more application developers for success in application store business in order to attract more app users. By using aspects of the commitment marketing theory and the relationship marketing theory, this research study identified factors that influence on the relational commitment of application developers to the market. Survey of application developers from Korean mobile application developers' community was conducted to test the hypothesized model. The empirical results showed from an economic behavioral perspective market demand for applications and perceived usefulness of development tool led to relational commitment of developers mediated by perceived satisfaction while attractiveness of alternatives had no significant effect. In addition, fairness of review process and interactivity, based on the relationship marketing theory perspective, showed significant effect on the relational commitment of developers mediated by trust for application market.

Purpose - The development and implementation of OSS (Open Source Software) led to a dramatic change in corporate IT infrastructure, from system server to smart phone, because the performance, reliability, and security functions of OSS are comparable to those of commercial software. Today, OSS has become an indispensable tool to cope with the competitive business environment and the constantly-evolving IT environment. However, the use of OSS is insufficient in small and medium-sized companies and software houses. This study examines the need for OSS Intermediaries in the Software Distribution Channel. It is expected that the role of the OSS Intermediary will be reduced with the improvement of the distribution process. The purpose of this research is to prove that OSS Intermediaries increase the efficiency of the software distribution market. Research design, Data, and Methodology - This study presents the analysis of data gathered online to determine the extent of the impact of the intermediaries on the OSS market. Data was collected using an online survey, conducted by building a personal search robot (web crawler). The survey period lasted 9 days during which a total of 233,021 data points were gathered from sourceforge.net and Apple's App store, the two most popular software intermediaries in the world. The data collected was analyzed using Google's Motion Chart. Results - The study found that, beginning 2006, the production of OSS in the Sourceforge.net increased rapidly across the board, but in the second half of 2009, it dropped sharply. There are many events that can explain this causality; however, we found an appropriate event to explain the effect. It was seen that during the same period of time, the monthly production of OSS in the App store was increasing quickly. The App store showed a contrasting trend to software production. Our follow-up analysis suggests that appropriate intermediaries like App store can enlarge the OSS market. The increase was caused by the appearance of B2C software intermediaries like App store. The results imply that OSS intermediaries can accelerate OSS software distribution, while development of a better online market is critical for corporate users. Conclusion - In this study, we analyzed 233,021 data points on the online software marketplace at Sourceforge.net. It indicates that OSS Intermediaries are needed in the software distribution market for its vitality. It is also critical that OSS intermediaries should satisfy certain qualifications to play a key role as market makers. This study has several interesting implications. One implication of this research is that the OSS intermediary should make an effort to create a complementary relationship between OSS and Proprietary Software. The second implication is that the OSS intermediary must possess a business model that shares the benefits with all the participants (developer, intermediary, and users).The third implication is that the intermediary provides an OSS of high quality like proprietary software with a high level of complexity. Thus, it is worthwhile to examine this study, which proves that the open source software intermediaries are essential in the software distribution channel.

While referring to 'Chanel' which has developed a fashion brand app for the first time in August of 2008, not only for App store by Apple Inc. of the greatest market share but also for Android market, the one and only competitor of App store, the study examined cases of fashion brand app in Korea and foreign countries which have been in service till August of 2013 since the year of 2008. To achieve the research goal, the study conducted a literature research and a case review, categorizing the app by their distinctive functions which were Basic Information, SNS, AR, LBS, Entertainment, Mobile Shopping and Live Streaming. As for the first function, Basic Information, it was considered to provide information on a brand such as prices, sizes and colors of products which should be the most fundamental function of a fashion brand. The function would include look book, catalogues, photographs and others of products, helping users of the app with their understanding on images and concepts of the brand. Second, SNS function was considered useful for its mobility and communication and with the help of theirs, the users share fashion information with each other. Third, AR function as in a filed of virtual reality would edit virtual objects to look real in an actual environment. This would eventually offer the users a chance to try for clothes virtually. The fourth function, LBS, would work with GPS to find a store closest from a present location. This would be a help when the users try to find stores holding promotion events or trails while hiking in mountains. The fifth Entertainment function would include all sorts of games and chances for the users to listen to music and keep fashion diaries. The sixth function, Mobile Shopping, would help the users purchase items online via the app as they would not visit a store in person. The seventh function, Live Streaming, would give the users chances to actually see fashion collections in real time, held all over the world in every season. Because of this function, not only fashion experts but also regular people have become able to enjoy the fashion shows.
