  • The aims of this study was to investigate the satisfactions with school food service and its influencing factors for elementary and middle school parents. We surveyed parents regarding their concerns about food ingredients and dietary life, perceptions of free school food service, the necessity of food supply systems such as school food service centers, and the satisfaction about the quality and management of school food services. Compared to the last year, concerns about food ingredients and dietary life as well as perceptions about free school food services decreased. The reported necessity of supply system such as school food service centers and co-purchasing was lower than in 2015. The satisfaction about the school food service decreased, compared to 2015. More individuals had higher concerns about local food and stated the necessity for school food supply systems, as well as a higher satisfaction about the quality and management of school food services. In conclusion, it is important to emphasize characteristics of school food services such as co-purchasing local foods.

  • Free-viewpoint video (FVV) service provides multi viewpoints of contents and synthesizes intermediate video files which are not captured on some view angles so that enables users to watch as they choose wherever they want. Synthesizing video is necessary technique to provide FVV video service, because every video of the FVV contents for different view angles cannot be stored to the content server physically. For the reason, fast view synthesis can improve the quality of video service and increase user's satisfaction. One of the studies for FVV service, a method was proposed to transmit FVV service based on DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP). There is big advantage on using DASH that it is commonly used to transport video service. However, the method was only a conceptual proposal, so it is difficult to implement the system using the proposal. In this paper, we propose an implementation method to provide real-time FVV service smoothly. We suggest a system structure and operation method on the server and client side in detail, which is to be applicable to synthesize video quickly. Also, we suggest generating FVV service map additionally which controls a FVV service overall. We manage real-time information of the whole service through the service map. The service can be controlled by reducing the possible delay from network situation.

  • The role of smartphones is changing from a communication system for exchanging calls and information into a universal platform for cultural services. Also, satisfaction for mobile application services on smartphones is a very important factor in the smart business. In This paper, we analyze the effects of the outcome, service scape, costs, and especially the impact of whether costumers having to pay or free for the app on customer satisfaction. For this purpose, we analyzed survey data on service quality of mobile app service from Chinese mobile app service users. We also analyzed the moderating effects of paid and free mobile app services. As a result, it was confirmed that the quality, servicescape quality and cost of mobile app service that customers perceive have a positive effect on customer satisfaction. In addition, the effect of the cost of mobile app service perceived by the customer on customer satisfaction showed that free mobile app service was more significant than paid mobile app service. This paper can be used as an alternative to monetization for providing a mobile app service provider or a mobile app service provider who wants to switch mobile app service from free to paid service.

  • The purpose of this study is to design a service encounter of a duty free shop using a blueprinting method. This case study analyzed differences between city-based and airport-based duty free shop and proposed a flow chart based on administration blueprinting of the duty free shop in South Korea. The paper presented process criteria based on administrative procedures of customers in city-based and airport-based duty free shop. The results of the study provided the cause of failure with waiting point of customer and customer service and suggested management plan to solve failure. Also, the study addressed more customer-oriented service delivery processes to improve service quality and customer satisfaction through waiting and failure points.

  • The widespread use of smartphones with a variety of features has enabled mobile Internet-based services. One of these is online-to-offline (O2O) based services that connects online users with offline stores to add value. Applying this O2O strategy to local information retrieval induces online users to be linked to offline regions, thereby enabling the exchange of local-based information and helps create new value. This paper proposes and illustrates the implementation of O2O-based a local information providing service that utilizes photos of the local attraction. Also, we propose a fake-free ranking method to provide reliable local information to users and suggest its application of the service.
