This study investigates responses to privacy concerns by analyzing the psychological and behavioral characteristics related to the disposition toward invoices of courier service users. To this end, we develop a theoretical framework by combining stimulus response theory, communication privacy management theory, the theory of reasoned action, and the theory of planned behavior. Based on the theoretical framework, we analyze the relationships between social influence, privacy propensity, privacy control, privacy risk, privacy concern, invoice disposition intention, and invoice disposition behavior in the context of courier services. To test our hypotheses, we survey courier service users in the U.S. and Korea. Using a structural equation model, we test the relationships among these various factors for the courier service users of the two countries. Results have distinct implications for the psychological and behavioral characteristics concerning the disposal of courier invoices and enable understanding of the characteristics of courier service customers of the two countries.

The Internet banking service, through which customers process their banking-related works, was introduced in July 1997. The service has since spread quickly, and as of the end of June 2000, just one year after its introduction into Korea, its subscribers numbered 1.23 million people. This figure is ten times larger than the 120,000 subscribers recorded over the six months period up to the end of 1999. In addition, since the end of June 2000, subscriptions on average increase by more than 10,000 a day, and by the end of December 2000, it is expected to pass the 3 million mark. There has been no empirical study conducted on the invigorated Internet banking's status and its services. Therefore, this research is designed to conduct a survey on the Internet banking service status, to conduct actual transactions from the viewpoint of customers and then make a empirical evaluation of it. This will indicate directions for improvement and development of the domestic Internet banking service. We have evaluated ten areas of the Internet banking service including financial service, customers service, users'convenience, and system safety. As of the end of June 2000, 18 out of 20 commercial domestic banks are providing an Internet banking service, and we have conducted evaluations of all these banks. The evaluation is divided into ten categories with 100 points as a maximum score. These are then classified into six grades AAA, AA, A, BBB, BB and B. The outcome of this evaluation was featured in the major domestic journals, and the banks, acknowledging the value of the report, declared that they would adopt it as their criteria for evaluation.

This paper proposes a flow-based admission control algorithm through an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) based Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network for multiple service class environments of Integrated Service (IntServ) and Differentiated Service (DiffServ). We propose the Integrated Packet Scheduler to accommodate IntServ and Best Effort traffic through the DiffServ-aware MPLS core network. The numerical results of the proposed algorithm achieve reliable delay-bounded Quality of Service (QoS) performance and reduce the blocking probability of high priority service in the DiffServ model. We show the performance behaviors of IntServ traffic negotiated by end users when their packets are delivered through the DiffServ-aware MPLS core network. We also show that ATM shortcut connections are well tuned with guaranteed QoS service. We validate the proposed method by numerical analysis of its performance in such areas as throughput, end-to-end delay and path utilization.

In this paper, a dynamic priority-based QoS (DPQoS) provision scheme is proposed for the required QoS from one end of the network to the other in wireless mobile networks. The DPQoS model is used to meet diversity multimedia traffic requirements. This model is come up with a framework for the wireless network of which consists of a core-IP network and also a number of wireless access networks. For the true end-to-end QoS, it is required that the core network is able to support the required QoS for the wireless users. This paper shows a solution to optimize the performance for different traffic classes according to the traffic characteristics. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated at delay aspects such as delay and throughput.

A heterogeneous webserver such as an HTTP server should be able to currently deal with numerous users. To the end, it is inevitable to formally analyze web traffics as well as a webserver itself. In particular, as most systems adopt HTTP 1.1 protocol instead of HTTP 1.0 protocol, it is more difficult to represent the system as a simple analytic mode. In addition, since most of previous models missed the detailed processes of the server, it is unsuitable for the current server based on HTTP 1.1 to tune itself with its own system parameters. On the basis of HTTP 1.1 Protocol supporting persistent connections, we thus present an analytical end-to-end tandem queueing model considering specific hardware configurations inside the webserver, which ultimately covers from accepting the customer requests to completing the services.

The major objective of this paper is to analyze the relationships between End-User Computing(EUC) attributes and its implementation. Reviewing the related literatures, we categorized EUC attributes into threefactors - relative advantage, compatibility, complexity. With such attributes this paper proposed a hypothetical model which explains the effect of the EUC attributes on its implementation. Under the assumption that EUC attributes affect its implementation differently according to the several contingent factors, the model included such factors as organizational size, organizational support level on the EUC activities and individual characteristics - computer experience, education level, age. Data were collected form 177 end-users of 40 Korean business firms. Hypotheses were tested using Pearson Correlation, t-test, ANOVA and the results are discussed below.

The increasing importance of end-user computing(EUC) is reflected in the proliferation of academic and practitioner literature on the subject. However, much of this literature assumes widely differing dimensions of EUC, which tends to make many researchers suggest different success factors for managing EUC. Moreover, the variables regarding EUC management have been considerably restricted in previous research. In order to overcome these problems, this study focuses on identifying EUC dimensions theoretically and deriving generic variables representing the mode of EUC management by factor analysis first. Then, based on these EUC dimensions and generic variables for EUC management, effective ways of managing EUC are hypothesized and tested empirically through a mail survey of end-users in 83 Korean business organizations. The results suggest that effective management of EUC should be different depending upon which dimension more importance is attached to in implementing EUC.

Recently End-User Computing(EUC) is emerging as an alternative to the traditional information systems development approach which cannot cope with users' requirements of systems development because of increase in backlog. It is necessary that appropriate models of EUC to evaluate the expected benefits and risks and to implement should be developed for managers. The main objective of this study is to help managers who need to review their MIS policies by presentinb EUC strategies under the information systems research framework which have concluded through many studies.

Web programming courses are often included in university Computer Science programs as introductory and foundational computer programming courses. However, amateur programmers often have difficulty learning how to integrate HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and various preprocessors or libraries to create websites. Additionally, many web programming mistakes do not produce visible output in the browser. Therefore, in recent years, Front-End Code Playground (FECP) tools that incorporate HTML, CSS, and JavaScript into a single, online web-based application have become popular. These tools allow web coding to happen directly in the browser and provide immediate visual feedback to users. Such immediate visual feedback can be particularly beneficial for amateur coders to learn and practice with. Therefore, this study gathers data on various FECP tools, compares their differences, and provides an analysis of how such tools benefit students. This study concludes with an outline of the application of FECP to web programming courses to enhance the learning experience.
