This study explored the expandability and prospect of the game, one of the cultural contents that may potentially lead the next Korean Wave. The study found that for the game to grow and be recognized as the cultural product of the Korean Wave, it was necessary to develop the strategies to ensure the sustainability of the game and to build plans for powerful storytelling techniques that help the public become more familiarized with the game as part of the Korean Wave and maximize the public's affinity and preference of such game. It was also found that one of the immediate priorities is to develop the games that are characterized as their unique use and representation of the Korean culture in the global market while designing effective localization plans and paving the way for a government-level system of support.

In this paper, one of the traditional game, Gonu game, is implemented and experimented. The Minimax algorithm was applied as a technique to implement the Gonu game. We proposed an evaluation function to implement game in Minimax algorithm. We analyze the efficiency of algorithm for alpha beta pruning to improve the performance after implementation of Gonu game. Weights were analyzed for optimal analysis that affected the win or loss of the game. For the weighting analysis, a competition of human and computer was performed. We also experimented with computer and computer. As a result, we proposed a weighting value for optimal attack and defense.

This paper discusses the shaping of game culture and the socio-cultural functions of game-making events based on co-production ideation by meta-analysis. Research has shown that the experience in this event helps to reshape the perception of the game culture, which eventually will lead to the extended meanings of game culture. It can also be seen that the game-making event serves as an educational platform for building the next generation competencies.

본 연구는 게임이용자의 게임선택에 있어서 게임이용자와 게임캐릭터의 관계를 분석하는데 그 목적이 있다. 국내 게임시장이 게임업체간의 치열한 경쟁구도로 레드오션으로 바꿔진 현 시점에서 게임업체들은 게임이용자의 게임선택요인을 조사 분석하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 2010 대한민국 게임백서에 의하면, 게임이용자의 게임 선택 요인으로 캐릭터 선호도는 좋아하는 장르(57.3%), 지인추천(15.1%) 그리고 좋아하는 내용(13.7%)에 이어 4위를 차지하고 있을 정도로 매우 중요한 게임 선택 요인이라 할 수 있으며, 애니메이션, 게임 등 문화콘텐츠 산업에서 캐릭터와 관련된 선행연구에 의해서도 캐릭터의 중요성을 언급하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서 게임 캐릭터는 게임이용자가 게임을 선택하는데 있어서 매우 중요한 변수라 할 수 있다.

In this paper, the instrument for scientific education in elementary school is developed with the application of basic robot technology for coming IT future world. Particularly, a kind of robot game to fun a race with each other is planed to give a motive or interest in scientific education. This robot game is played with two robots per player, One robot is moved wirelessly with a remote controller and the other robot is moved automatically with intelligence given by computer program made by a player. This game system will be in spotlight as multi-objective educational system not only to teach basic technology of IT, but also to improve the ability for logical and creative thought in elementary school students.

An approach for game bot detection in massively multiplayer online role-playing games (MMORPGs) based on the analysis of game playing behavior is proposed. Since MMORPGs are large-scale games, users can play in various ways. This variety in playing behavior makes it hard to detect game bots based on play behaviors. To cope with this problem, the proposed approach observes game playing behaviors of users and groups them by their behavioral similarities. Then, it develops a local bot detection model for each player group. Since the locally optimized models can more accurately detect game bots within each player group, the combination of those models brings about overall improvement. Behavioral features are selected and developed to accurately detect game bots with the low resolution data, considering common aspects of MMORPG playing. Through the experiment with the real data from a game currently in service, it is shown that the proposed local model approach yields more accurate results.

This article examines technological innovation's impact on the game production field and on the developers' subjectivity and labor. It focuses on the appearance of the new stage of digitalization via mobile devices during the period when the leading sector of game industry rapidly shifted to Mobile games. Though the in-depth interview with the game developers, this article explores the changes in organizational and management approaches and in the developers' experience and perception of their labor. Given the serious shortage of the related literature, I believe this analysis could provide a new perspective in understanding the gameswork of specific time and location.

This study analyzed the causes of over-flow of adolescent games as loneliness, lack of self-control, parents-open communication, peer-emotional support and the game motivation(immerse, social relations, achievement). For analysis, the research data, 'Game User Panel Research(1 to 4 years)', was provided by Korea Creative Content Agency. As a major result, adolescence loneliness and lack of self-control directly affected game over-flow, and the game's achievement motive in their relation of influence was mediated. Over time, the structure of the relationship between the cause and the effect has shown mostly consistent results.

The early studies on the cultural industries had mainly emphasized the viewpoint of "efficiency" based on the "flexible specialization" theory, but they have gradually shed light on the viewpoint of "creativity": creative human resources and various networks generating creative energies. Despite the importance of these studies, it is impossible to explain every cultural industrial agglomeration phenomena from specific and few viewpoints due to the diversity of each cultural industry. This study describes the dissimilarity of agglomeration factors between the Japanese animation and home video game industries which form salient agglomeration in the same region. Both industries share similar characteristics with industrial agglomeration of SMEs in Tokyo and close inter-firm relationships. However, they differ in their historical development paths and each firm's behavior and strategy because of their own distribution systems and production processes. In particular, the difference in distribution systems clearly affects whether a company values "efficiency" factors of agglomeration advantage or "creativity" factors of that in case of locational choice. The distribution sector of the cultural industry, compared with the production sector, has a tendency to value profitability rather than creation itself. Therefore, a cultural industry with the strong distribution sector tends to form the industrial system emphasizing profitability. The Japanese animation firm is apt to choose its location from the perspective of efficiency, which easily contributes to profitability, because television broadcasting stations are strong distribution sector. Conversely, the Japanese game firm chooses its location from the perspective of creativity due to the absence of strong distribution sector.

3D online game, with its striking realistic value, is leading the entire Korean game market which has various game genres. Technology sharing is very hard within the Korean game industry. That is because 1)there are few professionals, 2)most of the companies are small-scaled, and 3)there are security reasons. Therefore, it should be significant if we have software design techniques which make it possible to reuse the existing code when developing a network game so that we could save a lot of efforts. In this paper, the author analyzes the demand through the case in the client's design of the network game based on DirectX and proposes the effective software design methods for reusable code based on the creative patterns application in the GoF in the class design.
