Coupled schemes between service-oriented architecture (SOA) and Web 2.0 have recently been researched. Web-based content providers and telecommunications company (Telecom) based Internet protocol television (IPTV) providers have struggled against each other to accommodate more three-screen service subscribers. Since the advent of Web 2.0, more abundant reproduced content can be circulated. However, because according to increasing device's resolution and content formats IPTV providers transcode content in advance, network bandwidth, storage and operation costs for content management systems (CMSs) are wasted. In this paper, we present a user centric CMS for open IPTV, which integrates SOA and Web 2.0. Considering content popularity based on a Zipf-like distribution to solve these problems, we analyze the performance between the user centric CMS and the conventional Web syndication system for normalized costs. Based on the user centric CMS, we implement a social Web TV with device-aware function, which can aggregate, transcode, and deploy content over social networking service independently.

Advances in technology have resulted in the emergence of new information systems. The convergence of IT and manufacturing sectors has blurred the boundaries among industries. Also, such convergence has become established as a paradigm to build a new area. Especially the convergence of broadcasting and telecommunication, notably in the case of IPTV (Internet Protocol Television), is among the most salient examples of its kind in recent years as a major case of disruptive technology innovation. Despite its much fanfare, such convergence, however, has not fulfilled the expectation; it has not produced positive economic effects while negatively affecting the growth of IPIV. Stakeholders in and around IPIV including telecommunication companies, broadcasting corporations, and government bodies wish to gain control of IPTV under their wings. IPTV has drifted in the midst of conflicts among the stakeholders in and around IPTV, particularly telecommunication and broadcasting organizations in a broad sense. Our empirical research intends to deal with how audiences accept IPTV and how firms provide IPTV services to utilize their resources. Three research questions in this paper include, first, whether Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) can sufficiently explain the acceptance of IPTV as an information system. The second question concerns with empirically testing the playful aspect of IPTV to increase its audience acceptance. Last, but not least, this paper deals with how firms can efficiently and effectively allocate their limited resources to increase IPTV viewers. To answer those three main questions of our study, we collect data from 197 current subscribers of high speed internet service and/or cable/satellite television. Empirical results show that 'perceived usefulness (PU) $\rightarrow$ Intention to use' and 'perceived ease of use (PEU) $\rightarrow$ Intention to use' are significant. Also, 'perceived ease of use' is significantly related to 'perceived usefulness.' Perceived ease of handling IPTV without much effort can positively influence the perceived value of IPTV. In this regard, engineers and designers of IPTV should pay more attention to the user-friendly interface of IPTV. In addition, 'perceived playfulness (PP)' of IPTV is positively related to 'intention to use'. Flow, fun and entertainment have recently gained greater attention in the research concerned with information systems. Such attention is due to the changing features of information systems in recent years that combine the functional and leisure attributes. These results give practical implications to the design of IPTV that reflects not just leisure but also functional elements. This paper also investigates the relationship between 'perceived ease of use (PEU)' and 'perceived playfulness (PP).' PEU is positively related to pp. Audiences without fear can be attracted more easily to the user-friendly IPTV, thereby perceiving the fun and entertainment with ease. Practical implications from this finding are that, to attract more interest and involvement from the audience, IPTV needs to be designed with similar or even more user friendly interface. Of the factors related to 'intention to use', 'perceived usefulness (PU)' and 'perceived ease of use (PEU)' have greater impacts than 'perceived playfulness (PP).' Between PU and PEU, their impacts on 'intention to use' are not significantly different statistically. Managerial implications of this finding are that firms in preparation for the launch of IPTV service should prioritize the functions and interface of IPTV. This empirical paper also provides further insight into the ways in which firms can strategically allocate their limited resources so as to appeal to viewers, both current and potential, of IPTV.

The purpose of this research is to help IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) commercialization using newly produced educational contents in the area of entertainment and education which currently popular in the market. It is called, Stimulus $Tester^{TM}$, endow reaction time from the feedback of learning system, using a non-direct method, for example, a remote controller. Reaction time is the learning efficiency promotion mechanism that learner ascertain the learning condition of oneself by the time with solved questions from the solving the question in given time. Reaction time also play a key role that the learner may go through course which distribute the point to PC from Server. If this system is ready, we expect that the educational industry will gradually spread out. To verify the learning efficiency of this system, we concluded that the learning improvements, by an Internet-based and a paper-based test, of the increase by 51%, from 2.47min to 1.27min, during reaction of 7 days.

DTV는 방송 서비스 운영에 가입자 개념을 추가하여 무료방송 외에 정당한 수신료를 지불하는 사람만이 프로그램을 시청할 수 있도록 하며, 그러한 수익을 이용하여 보다 양질의 서비스를 제공할 수 있게 되었다. 가입자간의 구분을 가능하게 해주기 위한 방법이 제한수신시스템(CAS: Conditional Access System)이다. IPTV는 웹 브라우저를 기반으로 동작하며, 방송 콘텐츠라는 기본 TV기능에서 벗어나 T-commerce, E-commerce 등의 다른 도메인으로 사용자의 요구에 따라 자유롭게 이동하며 사용자인증이 요구되기 때문에 기존의 제한수신시스템으로는 그 기능을 다 하기 힘들어졌다. Single-Sign-On은 사용자가 단한번의 인증을 통하여 추가적으로 인증할 필요가 있는 다른 서비스로의 자동적인 인증을 제공한다. 다수의 사용자가 다수의 서비스를 제공받기를 원하는 IPTV환경에서는 단순한 사용자 인증과 접근제어의 기능을 가진 제한수신시스템과 빈번한 사용자인증의 번거로움을 해결할 수 있는 편의성을 제공하는 SSO의 융합은 필연적이라 할 수 있다. 그러므로 Single-Sign-On은 사용자의 요구에 따라 이동하기 쉬운 IPTV 환경에 매우 적합하다. 이 논문에서는 제한수신시스템, SSO, IPTV에 대해 설명하고 제한수신시스템과 SSO의 기능을 통합하여 IPTV환경에 적합한 새로운 인증방안을 제안한다.

Recent researches of network structure are moving to high-level networks because there are already many research results of low-level network. Especially, current network services has been changed to the multimedia service using multicast routing such as IPTV(Internet Protocol Television) service. And then previous multicast services were provider oriented. So previous multicast structures were organized server/client model. But future multicast services will make user oriented services. Therefore there will be many service providers in the future. At this point, we study P2P network for supporting multi provider. So we research load balancing and contents lookup protocols in P2P network. In this paper, we propose network protocol and system based on super peer P2P for load balancing and efficiently service search. And we considered mobile environment for mobile IPTV.

IPTV, 인터넷 전화 등 인터넷 가입자에게 제공되는 서비스가 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 서비스 종류의 증가와 동시에 통신 사업자가 제공하는 네트워크 속도의 향상에도 불구하고 서비스 사용자의 불만이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 불만의 원인은 인터넷을 이용하는 모든 서비스가 네트워크 자원을 공유하기 때문에 특정 서비스의 품질을 확보하지 못하는 현상의 발생에 기인한다. 따라서 인터넷 사업자의 입장에서는 인터넷을 이용하여 다양한 서비스가 이루어지지만, 해당 서비스의 품질을 확보하는 것이 중요한 과제로 등장하였다. 본 논문에서는 IPTV 서비스 환경과 유사한 실험망 환경을 구축하고, HD급 영상 데이터를 멀티캐스트스트리밍 방송 서비스를 통해 네트워크상에서 트래픽 부하에 따른 IPTV 수신영상품 질의 변화를 살펴보고, 영상품질에 따른 네트워크 측정요소의 임계치를 도출한다.

IPTV(Internet Protocol Television)는 차별화된 초고속 광대역 네트워크를 기반으로 기존 TV의 단점을 보완하여 차세대 DTV 시장을 주도할 것으로 예상된다. IPTV의 저장용량이 증가하는 추세에 따라 SSD(Solid State Disk)가 NAND 플래시 메모리를 대체 할 것으로 예상된다. 본 논문에서는 IPTV의 저장장치인 SSD의 수명을 증가시키고 플래시메모리의 특성인 마모도 제한을 고려하지 않은 지움 정책(Garbage-Collection)을 사용하는 YAFFS(Yet Another Flash FileSystem)의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 블록을 내용기반 리스트로 관리하고 블록스왑을 사용하는 내용기반 지움 정책을 제안한다. 기존 파일시스템 보다 수명을 향상 시키는 내용기반 파일시스템을 설계 및 구현하여 성능을 분석하였다.
