  • Language is the method for communication. Semantician, G. Leech categorized the function of language as informational, expressive, directive, aesthetic and phatic one. Therefore, language can be defined as the social symbol system and the media for communication. Space, also, performs the role of symbol, information and communication. Space can be the media for the communication and the design can be logical construction process by it's arbitrary interpretation. The researcher considered the common points between verbal language and visual language as the tools for the mutual communication, tried to transit them into the 'space' as object language after analyzing 'image of poetry' as meta language, so that the old perspective of space design as function can be renewed as information system of the significant meaning delivery in the context of language's multiplicity, expandibility and changeability.

  • Language plays a central role in everyday communication activities. Therefore, an individual need to be able to use language to communicate with confidence and without fear. One of the major fears that people have is the fear of communication. This fear is most of the time due to a lack of confidence in communicating in a particular language or due to poor proficiency in the language. In some cases it can also be due to attitudinal problems. In the context of teaching and learning English as a second or foreign language, students can have a great fear of using English with confidence. This fear can be an acute one and thus students may avoid using English to communicate. However, non native speakers of English need to be highly competent in the use of the English language for a variety of communicative purposes particularly in meeting the challenges of globalisation and that of the digital age. This article presents some insights on language apprehension found among communication undergraduates who are non native speakers of English.

  • For the effective use of satellite communication transponder, tests for the payload system such as IOT(In-Orbit Test), RPM(Routine Payload Monitoring), CSM(Communicatios System Monitoring), and REV(Remote Earth-Station Verification) have to be conducted. Those tests are used in order to verify the condition and generic design of the satellite, to provide a database for operational calculations, and to maintain the quality of communication services. As the satellite communication system gets with wider expansion with higher complexity of operation, tests for the communication system also need more complex operation that usesophisticated computer-controlled measuring system. For and C language based measurement functions, which uses GPIB protocol and SCPI commands. But SICL requires knowledge of BASIC and C language as well as GPIB and SCPL system. This paper introduces a new language called CALSTEP-Control and Access Language for the Systems of Test Equipment and Payload. This language is designed for the operator to perform the tests for the satellite communication system without any special knowledge that is mentioned above. This language has very limited number of commands which are to be used to control the payload system and test equipments to perform IOT and CSM, and those commands are very readable and easy to understand, so an operator without any knowledge of BASIC and C programming language, or SICL and SCPI command can use it.

  • Through accurate observation and the results of experimental studies using great apes, the author tells us exactly what we have not known about human communication. The author persuasively conveys to the reader the grand history of developing from great apes' gestures to human gestures, to human speech. Given that great apes and human gestures were the origin of human voice language, we have once again realized that our language is, after all, an "embodied language."

  • The current software industry has an emerging issue with natural language-based requirement specifications. However, the accuracy of such requirement analysis remains a concern. It is noted that most errors still occur at the requirement specification stage. Defining and analyzing requirements based on natural language has become necessary. To address this issue, the linguistic theories of Chomsky and Fillmore are applied to the analysis of natural language-based requirements. This involves identifying the semantics of morphemes and nouns. Consequently, a mechanism was proposed for extracting object state designs and automatically generating code templates. Building on this mechanism, I suggest generating natural language-based comic images. Utilizing state diagrams, I apply changes to the states of comic characters (protagonists) and extract variations in their expressions. This introduces a novel approach to comic image generation. I anticipate highly productive comic creation by applying software processes to Cartoon ART.

  • Visual Language란 텍스트로 이루어진 문장이나 스프레드시트와 같은 도표형식의 정보전달과는 달리 전달하고자하는 사항을 가시화하여 그래프나 이미지 등으로 한 눈에 알아볼 수 있도록 하는 시각언어를 말한다. 본 논문에서는 전달방법에 따른 의사소통의 효과를 측정하는 연구모형을 제시하여 Visual Language와 Non-Visual Language를 통한 의사소통의 차이점을 비교 분석하였다. 연구결과 Visual Language를 통한 의사소통은 Non-Visual Language를 사용하는 것 보다 신속성 과 정확성 면에서 의사전달에 효과적이라는 사실을 알아낼 수 있었으며 Visual Language를 통한 의사소통은 프로젝트에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 사실을 밝혀내었다. 본 연구의 성과로는 프로젝트 관리 시 발생하는 각종 상황을 이해관계자에게 전달하는 수단으로 가시화된 언어를 사용하여 전달하고자 하는 바를 빠르고 정확하게 숙지시켜 원활한 소통을 지양하고 이로 인하여 프로젝트 성공률을 높이는 방안에 기여하는데 있다.

  • In the case of a hearing impaired person using sign language, there are many difficulties in communicating with a normal person who does not understand sign language. The sign language translation system is a system that enables communication between the hearing impaired person using sign language and the normal person who does not understand sign language in this situation. Previous studies on sign language translation systems for communication between normal people and hearing impaired people using sign language are classified into two types using video image system and shape input device. However, the existing sign language translation system does not solve such difficulties due to some problems. Existing sign language translation systems have some problems that they do not recognize various sign language expressions of sign language users and require special devices. Therefore, in this paper, a sign language translation system using an artificial neural network is devised to overcome the problems of the existing system.

  • Education systems throughout the world encourage their students to learn languages other than their native one. In Australia, our Education Boards provide students with the opportunity to learn European and Asian languages. French, German, Chinese and Japanese are the most popular languages studied in elementary and high schools. This choice is a reflection of Australias European heritage and its geographical position near Asia. In most non-English speaking countries, English is the foreign language most readily available to students. In Korea, the English language is actively promoted by the Education Department and, in less official ways, by companies and the public. It is impossible to be anywhere in Korea without seeing the English language alongside or intermingled with Korean. When I ask students why they are learning English, I receive answers that include the word globalization and the importance of English throughout the world. When I press further and ask why they personally are learning English, the students mention passing exams, usually high school tests or TOEIC, and the necessity of passing the latter to obtain a good job. Seldom do I ever hear anything about communication: about the desire to talk with other people in English, to read novels or poetry in English, to understand movies or pop-songs in English, to chat on the Internet in English, to search for information on the Internet in English, or to email pen-pals in English. Yet isnt communication the only valid reason for learning a language? We learn our native language to communicate with those around us. Shouldnt we set the same goal for learning a foreign language? In my opinion communication, whether it is reading and writing or speaking and listening, must be central to language learning. Learning a language to pass examinations is meaningless unless those examinations are a reliable indicator of the ability of the student to communicate. In previous eras, most communication in a foreign language was through reading novels or formal letters. This required a thorough knowledge of grammar and a large vocabulary. Todays communication is much less formal. Telephone conversations, tele-conferences, faxes and emails allow people to communicate regularly and informally. Reading materials are also less formal as popular novels and newspapers are available world-wide. Movies and popular songs have added to the range of informal communication available. Finally travel has ensured that people from different cultures will meet easily and regularly. This informal communication requires less emphasis on grammar and vocabulary and more emphasis on comprehension and confidence to speak. Placing communication central to language learning has important implications for the Education system and for teachers.

  • Non-verbal communications are important because they support and replace verbal communication. Body language of various non-verbal communications is the communication using the body. In animation, expression of body language is very important because characters play an important role in communicating the scenario. Animation has a dual communication structure, different from general communication. One is the communication between the speaker character and the hearer character, the other is the image and the audience, which includes the communication between the speaker character and the hearer character. In this study, we divide the body language from the characters into the discourse-in act and discourse-out act according to this dual structure and classify it into adaptors, emblem, illustrator, regulator, affect display by a functional approach method. Especially, the illustrator is subdivided into pragmatic speech act. Finally, this study analyzes the features of body language in animation and represents animation character's body language for an effective expression of the communications in animation.

  • This study examines a study of communication factor in Lunyu, as a communication text, in terms of communicator, audience, message, communication factor, communication text, interdisciplinary research. In many respects, it is generally accepted that Lunyu have been the generic references of the Oriental culture. Lunyu consider ethics, logic, and practicability as the qualifying requirement of communicator, asserting that communicator should speak true language, like a "chuntzu"(君子) does, and should also put their language into practice. The audience's attitude and method as contained in Lunyu are that hearers should have sharp ears for language, hear selectively the right language, and use the language suitable to the situation. It is also emphasized that the Hearer should actively lead in the situation of transactional communications. In Lunyu, one property of message is that language, which determines the rise and fall of a nation and is also the basis of judgement for other people, should comply with ethics and reasons and sould also be put into practice. In other words, credible message, as the practice of language, is the practical requirement of ethics and the qualification of a "chuntzu"(君子, superior man) in ruling the nation or conducting one's life.
