In this paper, a user-friendly mobile photo album system and albuming functions to support it are introduced. Stand-alone implementation in a mobile device is considered. The main idea of user-friendly photo browsing for albuming functions is to enable users to organize and browse their photos along semantically meaningful axes of events, personal identities, and categories. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method would be sufficiently useful and efficient for browsing personal photos in mobile environment.

In this paper, we evaluate the feasibility of a motion-based interaction for image browsing in the mobile device. We present the design of a motion-based interface and a navigation scheme. A designed interaction scheme was evaluated in a usability experiment alongside the conventional button-based interaction for image browsing. After enough training of user, the usability and the user task performance of the motion based interaction were significantly increased, approaching those of the button based interaction.

In this study, Automatic Speech Recognition Application System is designed and implemented to realize transformation from present GUI-centered web services to VUI-centered web service. Due to ASP's restriction with web in reusability and portability, in this study, Automatic Speech Recognition Application System with Javabeans Component Architecture is devised and studied. Also the voice web browsing which is able to transfer voice and graphic information simultaneously is studied using Remote AWT(Abstract Windows Toolkit).

This paper aims to empirically examine how personal characteristics and social influence affect user acceptance of mobile web browsing service. To examine the intention to use mobile web browsing service, we applied the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) which has been widely used to explain and predict the IT acceptance to this study. This research also includes personal characteristics such as computer self-efficacy, mobile self-efficacy, and personal innovativeness in IT and social influences such as subjective norms, image, and visibility as the external variables of the TAM. The results indicate that computer self-efficacy do not directly influence ease of use, but indirectly through mobile self-efficacy. And the results indicate that mobile self-efficacy and personal innovativeness in IT have direct effects on ease of use. Empirical results also show that subjective norms and image affect usefulness. Additional theoretical and practical implications of these findings are also discussed in the paper.

Mobile web browsing services that bring the full PC browsing experience to customer's mobile handset have been emerged. This study is to investigate the intention to use mobile web browsing based on Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) which has been widely used to explain and predict the IT acceptance and incorporated with self-efficacy which was identified as an important determinant of user's new technology adoption in recent literature on technology acceptance. Specifically, from a theoretical perspective, this study not only clarifies mobile self-efficacy, but also develops an instrument to measure the concept of mobile self-efficacy. The results indicate that both computer self-efficacy and mobile self-efficacy directly influence perceived ease of use, and that perceived ease of use enhance perceived usefulness. And the findings indicate that perceived ease of use and usefulness have direct effects on attitude and then it is positively associated with intention to use mobile web browsing. Therefore, the findings imply that mobile self-efficacy can be employed as an important variable in examining user's intention for various mobile services to come in future.

The purposes of this study were to examine whether the e-promotion interest was an influencing variable on promotion-acceptance attitudes, browsing, consumer satisfaction and e-loyalty, and to investigate the predictors for e-loyalty of shopping mall according to e-promotion interests. A questionnaire was developed based on the previous researches. Data were obtained from 555 adults who had purchased fashion products in online shopping. Data were analyzed using by factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, t-test and regression. The results showed that consumers with high e-promotion interests were more likely to accept e-promotions affectively and behaviorally, to have hedonic and utilitarian browsing, to satisfy the online shopping, and to make e-loyalty compared to them with low e-promotion interests. For high interested group in e-promotion, the more cognitive and affective attitudes toward promotion acceptance they were the greater e-loyalty in the context of online shopping for fashion products. Additionally, the more hedonic browsing and satisfy the online shopping they were the greater e-loyalty of shopping mall at Internet. However, for low interested group in e-promotion interests, the more utilitarian browsing and satisfy the online shopping they were the greater e-loyalty of online shopping for fashion products. It implies that consumer' e-promotion interest was an influencing variable on promotion-acceptance attitudes, browsing, consumer satisfaction and e-loyalty in online shopping for fashion products. Consumer satisfaction played an important role for making e-loyalty of fashion shopping malls. These findings are discussed in terms of insights for developing the strategies of encouraging to make the loyalty of shopping mall in the context of purchasing fashion products at Internet.

Effective and efficient representation of color features of multiple video frames is an important vet challenging task for visual information management systems. This paper Proposes a Video Browsing Service(VBS) that provides both the video content retrieval and the video browsing by the real-time user interface on Web. For the scene segmentation and key frame extraction of video sequence, we proposes an efficient scene change detection method that combine the RGB color histogram with the X2 (Chi Square) histogram. Resulting key frames are linked by both physical and logical indexing. This system involves the video editing and retrieval function of a VCR's. Three elements that are the date, the need and the subject are used for video browsing. A Video Browsing Service is implemented with MySQL, PHP and JMF under Apache Web Server.

The purpose of this study aims to provide possible suggestions for the improvement of the literature classification number system as the search and browsing device on the library homepage. After analyzing and evaluating literature classification number system as the search and browsing device on the homepage of library adopting DDC, suggestions for the improvement were proposed. For the purpose of maximizing the effectiveness of literature classification number system as the browsing device, DDC third summary(the thousand section) which is suited to domestic circumstances was prepared.

In this paper, we propose a voice-annotation browsing system that make the reading-disabled people to be able to find and play the existing voice-annotations. The proposed system consists of 4 steps: input, ranking & recommendation, search, and output. For the reading-disabled people depending only on the auditory sense, all steps can accept voice commands. To evaluate the effectiveness of our system, we design and implement an android-based mobile e-book application supporting the voice-annotation browsing ability. The implemented system is tested by a number of blind-folded users. As a result, we can see almost all the reading-disabled people can successfully and easily reach the existing voice-annotations they want to find.

In this paper, we Propose a browsing system to reduce the contents retrieval time in the personalized broadcasting system. For this purpose, we add a subgenre table between Classification DS and Summarization DS of MPEG-7 MDS. The subgenre includes a subgenre list to shorten the searching time of contents which we want to find. In addition we divide metadata into event and object using Summarization DS of the MPEG-7 MDS. In this way, the hierarchical browsing of broadcasting contents is made possible. This structure may reduce the complexity of search by storing event and object separately. Our simulation results show that the search time of the proposed system is shorter than that of the previous works.
