This study examines the image management behavior according to self-monitoring, self-objectification of profile-based SNS users. Questionnaires were administered to 313 SNS users including both men and women in their 20s to 30s. The SPSS 25.0 package was utilized for data analysis, which included frequency analysis, factor analysis, Cronbach's ?, t-test, and regression analysis. The study analyzed self-monitoring in 2 groups (high, low), self-objectification for 2 factors (body surveillance, body shame), and image management behavior for 5 factors (fashion oriented, instrumentality, conformity, ostentation, interpersonal disposition). The results revealed: first, self-monitoring groups exhibited significant differences in self-objectification. The higher self-monitoring group was more influenced by body surveillance and body shame compared to the low self-monitoring group. Second, self-objectification had a positive influence on all the factors of image management behavior. Especially, body surveillance demonstrated a high influence on instrumentality and body shame showed a high influence on ostentation. Third, the self-monitoring groups showed significant differences in all the factors of image management behavior. The higher self-monitoring group demonstrated more influence of image management behavior compared to the low self-monitoring group. These results provide useful information in understanding the influence of social media on users' psychological attitude and consciousness toward their body and image management behavior.

The non-contact easy detecting system of nursing person's body vital information and their behaviors monitoring system are developed, which consist of "Kinect" sensor and thermography camera. The "Kinect" sensor can catch the body contour and the body moving behavior, and output their imaging data realtime. The thermography camera can detect respiration state and body temperature, etc. In this study, the practicability of this system was verified.

Despite the growth of body-related industry has generated considerable interest in this topic among both academics and practitioners, there has been lack of studies that explore body esteem toward online fashion products leads to purchase intentions, which self-monitoring moderates the relationship between body esteem toward online fashion products and purchase intentions. To fill this gap, this study aim to propose a research model where body esteem influences on the purchase intentions, with self-monitoring as a moderator. In order to test hypotheses, response from 172 consumers were achieved, and the proposed model was estimated by using hierarchical moderated regression analysis. The empirical results showed that body esteem negatively related to purchase intentions toward online fashion products. Additionally, this study indicated that the moderating effects of self-monitoring exist between body esteem and purchase intentions toward online fashion products, thereby implying the importance of contingent role of self-monitoring in managing online channels.

본 논문에서는 경제성, 효율성, 확장성 및 개발의 편의성을 고려한 환자 모니터링 모바일 시스템의 개발 사례를 보고한다. 특히 생명징후(Vital Sign) 중에서도 체온(Body Temperature)을 모니터링 하는 모바일 시스템 MBTMS 개발을 다루었다. MBTMS(Mobile Body Temperature Monitoring System)는 다음과 같이 세 부분으로 구성된다: (1) 환자의 체온들 수집하기 위한 센서, (2) 센서를 통해 체온을 측정하는 모듈, (3) 모듈에서 전달받은 자료를 처리 분석, 저장하는 PC(Personal Computer) Application으로 구성된다. 이러한 MBTMS는 입원환자 및 노약자를 위한 경제적인 PMS(Patient Monitoring System) 개발 및 e-Health 연구의 한 부분으로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Recently, thermography camera have been using for body-temperature monitoring. We report on fabrication of prototype thermography camera using the chalcogenide-glass lens and the camera test by analysis of thermal image. In this work, it was found out that thermography camera discerned body-temperature between 20 and $50^{\circ}C$ with noise equivalent temperature difference(NETD) of 87.7mK. It is confirmed that thermography camera using the chalcogenide-glass lens is applicable to the body-temperature monitoring system.

u-Life care device collect body bio formation, and classify and store them in exercise patterns. Afterwards, the devices send the data through bluetooth wireless communication to the smart phones which set Google Android operation system at regular intervals. The information is checked out through application. u-Life care device calculates calories spent a day after monitoring activity quantity with 3-axis acceleration sensor. The device judges the status of health through body data mining and consults tailored exercise treatment. When sending body data, the device sends them in smart phone through Blue Tooth wireless communication at once. So, as a strong point, the device doesn't need mobile gateway or home gateway used for sending to web server information sensed from exercise life care products.

This paper presents a wearable human health-monitoring band. The band consists of a body temperature detector (BTD) and a hear rate detector (HRD). The BTD and HRD are realized using an inkjet-printed flexible temperature sensor and a commercial heart rate sensor module, respectively. The sensitivity of the fabricated BTD was found to be $-31/^{\circ}C$ with a linearity of 99.82%. The HRD using the commercial heart rate sensor module has a good performance with a standard deviation of 0.85 between the data of a commercial smart watch and the fabricated HRD.

Body area networks (BANs) have emerged as an enabling technique for e-healthcare systems, which can be used to continuously and remotely monitor patients' health. In BANs, the data of a patient's vital body functions and movements can be collected by small wearable or implantable sensors and sent using shortrange wireless communication techniques. Due to the shared wireless medium between the sensors in BANs, it may be possible to have malicious attacks on e-healthcare systems. The security and privacy issues of BANs are becoming more and more important. To provide secure and correct association of a group of sensors with a patient and satisfy the requirements of data confidentiality and integrity in BANs, we propose a novel enhanced secure sensor association and key management protocol based on elliptic curve cryptography and hash chains. The authentication procedure and group key generation are very simple and efficient. Therefore, our protocol can be easily implemented in the power and resource constrained sensor nodes in BANs. From a comparison of results, furthermore, we can conclude that the proposed protocol dramatically reduces the computation and communication cost for the authentication and key derivation compared with previous protocols. We believe that our protocol is attractive in the application of BANs.

While increasing the convenience of life is a high population BMI (Body Mass Index) is increasing rapidly. Accordingly, the development of the monitoring system to manage and prevent obesity is the time that is required. But most of the monitoring system, the less information it receives management and show to have only simple information calculated this was a low efficiency problem. Also Users with normal and disease Management accuracy is low. In this paper shows the user in a graph of Body Mass Index, BMR (Basal metabolic rate) divided by grade increased accuracy for users to manage their own. Also represented by recovery with exercise machines you used, select a balanced movement mechanism, expressed as a Kcal consumption. If the graph recent data show only increased the visibility. We developed an efficient web-based monitoring system for design a exercise plan.
