Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effects of normal and heat stress environments on growth performance and, selected physiological and immunological parameters, caecal microflora and meat quality in Cobb 500 and Ross 308 broilers. Methods: One-hundred-and-twenty male broiler chicks from each strain (one-day-old) were randomly assigned in groups of 10 to 24 battery cages. Ambient temperature on day (d) 1 was set at 32℃ and gradually reduced to 23℃ on d 21. From d 22 to 35, equal numbers of birds from each strain were exposed to a temperature of either 23℃ throughout (normal) or 34℃ for 6 h (heat stress). Results: From d 1 to 21, strain had no effect (p>0.05) on feed intake (FI), body weight gain (BWG), or the feed conversion ratio (FCR). Except for creatine kinase, no strain×temperature interactions were observed for all the parameters measured. Regardless of strain, heat exposure significantly (p<0.05) reduced FI and BWG (d 22 to 35 and 1 to 35), immunoglobulin Y (IgY) and IgM, while increased FCR (d 22 to 35 and 1 to 35) and serum levels of glucose and acute phase proteins (APPs). Regardless of temperature, the Ross 308 birds had significantly (p<0.05) lower IgA and higher finisher and overall BWG compared to Cobb 500. Conclusion: The present study suggests that the detrimental effects of heat stress are consistent across commercial broiler strains because there were no significant strain×temperature interactions for growth performance, serum APPs and immunoglobulin responses, meat quality, and ceacal microflora population.

In recent years, the privacy concern for mobile consumers is emerging as the use of mobile application(apps) is growing according to the rapid spread of mobile devices such as smart phones and tablet PCs. To improve privacy protections in the mobile communications and apps, overseas organizations are announcing guidelines and/or checklists for stake holders. Although personal information protection guidelines for application developers have been prepared in the country, efforts to improve consumer privacy capability is insufficient. Thus, in this paper we first scope the app privacy related guidelines in both domestic and foreign affairs, then present the risk factors of privacy invasion by the stage of mobile application use based on the "Privacy Protection Act", offering privacy checklists for consumers. This checklist will enhance the self-management capability of consumer privacy and create virtuous cycle in the mobile ecosystem.

As web apps have evolved faster and become more complex, their validation and verification have become essential for their development and maintenance. Efficient validation and verification require understanding of how web components collaborate with each other to meet user requests. Thus, this paper proposes a new approach to automatically extracting such collaboration when a user issues a request for a new page. The approach is dynamic and less sensitive to web development languages and technologies, compared to static extraction approaches. It considers an orignal web app as a black-box and does not change the app's behavior. The empirical evaluation shows that our approach can be applicable to extract component collaboration and understand the behavior of open source web apps.

This study illustrates and compares the platform strategy of Apple and Samsung, which have been operating their own App stores, by using the $IISI^n$ model. Apple, the first mover of the platform, has employed closed strategy for quality control of the platform and customer loyalty. On the other hand, Samsung has employed open strategy for increasing the platform network effects. The result of this study showed that the platform strategy "Openness", which is a free entry of participants, and "Sharing" of created value, are important along with the excellent platform environment. As a pioneering study of the platform strategy for the co-creation, this research contributes to both theory and practice.

As the number of smartphone users is increasing with the development of mobile devices, the range of monetary transaction from the individual use is increasing. Therefore, hacking methods are diversified and the information forgery of mobile devices has been a current issue. The forgery via apps in mobile devices is a hacking method that creates an app similar to well-known apps to deceive the users. The forgery attack corresponds to the violation of integrity, one of three elements of security. Due to the forgery, the value and credibility of an app decreases with the risk increased. With the forgery in app, private information and data can be stolen and the financial losses can occur. This paper examined the forgery, and suggested a way to detect it, and sought the countermeasure to the forgery.

The remarkable development of IT is contributed to popularization of smart phones, which in turn creates a new domain called app store. Smartphone apps have grown fast because they can be easily purchased through an app store. As the volume of apps traded in app stores is so huge that it is extremely hard for users to find the exact app they want. In general, an app store recommends an app to users based on the search words they entered. In terms of recommendation of app, this kind of content-based method is not effective. To increase accuracy in recommending app, this paper proposes a characteristic similarity-based app recommendation method. This method creates attributes on the app based on the related information such as genre, functionality and number of downloads and then compares them with the propensity to use the app. According to diverse simulations, the method proposed in this paper improved the performance of app recommendation by 33% in average, compared to the conventional method.

This study aims to suggest app programming education plan by analyzing the effects of app programming education using m-bizmaker on the creative problem solving ability in specialized high school students. Currently, The South Korean government is preparing to conduct SW education in primary and secondary schools. Developing smartphone apps that are familiar to students can be seen as a very effective tool of SW educational measures. In general, app development can only be achieved through specialized training on how to use the app programming language. So, many students think the app programming is difficult areas before creating apps because tired of learning how to an app programming language. As a result of applying app programming education using m-Bizmaker, which is one of the app authoring tools, to the class, it is desirable as an app programming education plan. And according to survey results, it has been proved that the app programming education plan using m-Bizmaker is effective to improve creative problem solving ability.
