This paper proposes a fast zooming and focusing technique for implementing a real-time surveillance camera system which can capture a face image in less than 1 second. It determines the positions of zooming and focusing lenses using two-step algorithm. In the first step, it moves the zooming and focusing lenses simultaneously to the positions calculated using the lens equations for achieving the predetermined magnification. In the second step the focusing lens is adjusted so that it is positioned at the place where the focus measure is the maximum. The camera system implemented for the experiments has shown that the proposed algorithm spends about 0.56 second on average fur obtaining a focused image.

The growth of social media has enabled firms to create virtual organizations (online communities) in which value can be co-created with members. Yet, current typologies of firm-sponsored online communities focus either on the firm or participants, and not the interaction between them. This paper provides a systematic review of the online community literature from 2000 to 2018 to develop an understanding of the types of firm-sponsored online communities and the co-creation of value within them. Four types of sponsored online communities are found. These can be differentiated based on the output for the sponsoring firm and the level of self-organization of the communities. This study contributes to the discussion of value co-creation by (i) shedding light on differences among firm-sponsored online community types based on the level and nature of interaction within an online community; and (ii) examining the perceived value co-created through community interactive experiences.

Purpose - The coffee market in Korea has been dramatically developed and coffee chains dominate the Korean coffee market recently. Customer's perceived value is one of the marketing tools to get competitive advantages of coffee chains, and plays a critical role to study on coffee franchise industry. Thus, this study is to identify the effect of customer's perceived value (price, brand, service, and quality) on revisit intentions and word-of-mouth(WOM). Research design, data. and methodology - Customer's perceived values consists of four dimensions. 253 samples of 320 were used for data analyses excluding unusable responses. The data were analyzed with SPSS 21.0 and SmartPLS 3.0. Result - First, customer's perceived brand value and service value have a significant, positive effect on revisit intentions. Second, Price value and brand value have a positive influence on WOM. Third, gender difference plays a moderating role in the relationship between brand value and price value and WOM, and between brand value and revisit intentions. Conclusions - Males tend to focus more on their perceived brand value of coffee shops for revisit and recommendation, otherwise females consider price value to give an advice to others. Based on the results of this study, the marketers of coffee chains can develop effective strategies regarding gender difference as well.

In this paper, a control strategy of position and force is proposed based on a switching algorithm. The main focus is the control of position and force in the same direction. The switching algorithm based on a fuzzy algorithm determines the weighting value of force control. First, the force control is dominant. If the position gets closer to the desire position, the weighting value of force control is closer to zero. The proposed algorithm is shown to be satisfactory to position and force control and the weighting factor is quite successful by simulation examples.

This paper provides a framework for evaluating business information systems. The framework identifies three evaluation domains: IS business value, IS expenses, and IS functionality. Discussions of each category encompass what to be measured, how to measure, and how to judge the measured value. Then, the framework classifies three categories of individual information systems based on IS life cycle: industry-common, industry-similar, and firm-specific. This categorization is used to match the role of an individual system with the focus of evaluation efforts. The framework can contribute to the systematic design of evaluation programs for business information systems.

In comparison to the rapid rise in the number of restaurant daily deal service consumer complaints, relatively little attention has been directed at the features of deal consumers' complaint behaviors in academic research. In order to address this gap, this study examined the characteristics of complaint behaviors of consumers who purchase restaurant deals with a focus on three potential determinants (likelihood of success with the complaint, attitude toward complaining, and severity of the failure). Results indicated that the three proposed determinants emerged as critical factors that influence deal consumers to exhibit different complaint reactions to dissatisfactory experiences. Furthermore, it was discovered that the hypothesized relationships were moderated by value consciousness, in which high value-conscious deal consumers exhibited a higher complaint inclination than low-value conscious deal consumers.

The demand for services using digital technology is constantly increasing as new developments in digital consumer electronics and the Internet are made. This is especially true in terms of the demand for IPTV utilizing high speed Internet networks. Research on IPTV threats is important for facilitating financial transactions via IPTV and preventing illegal use or copying of digital content. Thus, this paper analyzes IPTV threats via the IPTV value chain. That is, the distribution system for IPTV service is analyzed along with the components of the value chain and corresponding IPTV security requirements or security technologies, in order to perform a threat analysis and research suitable for the IPTV service environment. This paper has a greater focus on the value chain of the IPTV business than the approach in previous research, in order to analyze security requirements and technologies that are more applicable to the business environment.
