In recent years, movie content consumption has increased not only in theaters but also through online channels. As movie channels become more diverse, there is a growing interest in movie channel selection process, and the movie channel selection can vary depending on the characteristics of consumers. Therefore, in this study, we examined the effect of consumer personality(neurogenic, conscientiousness, openness, agreeableness) on channel selection factors(primary and secondary factors of the theater, primary and secondary factors of online channel) and channel attitudes(attitudes towards theaters, IPTV, cable TV, OTT). The results of this study shows that consumer personality has significant impact on consumers' movie channel selection process and findings provide strategic directions for companies offering online and offline service for movie consumption.

Many Internet application provide the PKI(public key infrastructure)-based service to provide authentication and message integrity. Several researchers proposed PKI-based p2p network framework. However, in the real world, the use of PKI is not suitable for peer to peer network, because the peer-to-peer network is an open and dynamic network. Moreover, currently there is no nation-to-nation interoperable certificate. In this paper, we designed reliable p2p file sharing application without public key infrastructure. To do this we propose reliable public key distribution mechanism to distribute public key safely without PKI infrastructure for two-tier super-peer architecture. In our system, each peer generates and distributes its public/private key pairs, and the public key is securely distributed without PKI. The proposed mechanism is safe against MITM attack. This mechanism can be applied various P2P applications such as file sharing, IPTV, distributed resource sharing and so on

With the help of information technology, PVR has been evaluated as an innovative device that brings epochal changes for program selection and convenience of receivers with the convergence between broadcasting and telecommunication. Satellite broadcasters introduced PVR service to strengthen its interactive function. This study analyzed PVR user behavior and how it changed the existing TV viewing behavior through satellite subscribers. The results revealed that PVR subscribers mainly used it for time shifting like VCR use. FUrthermore, heavy PVR users watched TV more than on average and enjoyed a divers genre of programs. This study provides scholarly implication for PVR using behavior and its effects and its useful information for contents and marketing strategy to help PVR service popularization.

In this paper, we attempted to theorize the synergy effect between the value creating attributes for digital convergence model in the service industry. Our investigation is based upon contingency fit theory to understand the strategic fit for the two inherent value attributes of fixed and mobile value, as well as resolving fundamental limitations of service processes. Empirical validation of the derived research model is analyzed using hierarchical regression method. The results indicate that the relative advantage of each value creating attributes are strongly associated with the characteristics of domain service industries, and compatibility is critical to user adoption of convergent service model. Moreover, the less significant statistical impact of the synergy between mobile and fixed value attributes and others implies that each value attribute uniquely contributes to particular IT convergence model, which thereby offers critical insight that focusing the convergent value in conjunction with specific application domain is the most appealing managerial focus. The findings provide useful insight for the further research in IT based industry convergent business model areas.

광통신 기술의 발달과 인터넷 서비스 수요의 급격한 증가로 2000년대 초반부터 광가입자망 연구 및 상용화가 이루어졌다. 최근에는 스마트폰 등 모바일 단말의 확산과 IPTV의 수요 증대에 따른 폭발적 트래픽 증가에 대처하기 위하여 친환경, 에너지 절감형 차세대 초고속 대용량 광가입자망 기술에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 차세대 광가입자망은 국내뿐 아니라 국외에서도 다양한 프로젝트를 통해 전송 거리, 분기 수 및 전송 용량을 늘리는 방향으로 연구개발이 진행되고 있으며 기존의 TDM, WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 기술뿐만 아니라 무선 통신에서 사용되던 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing) 등의 신호변조 기법들을 광가입망 기술에 접목하려는 시도들이 진행되고 있다. 이와 같은 광가입자망 기술들은 ITU-T, IEEE, IEC뿐만 아니라 FSAN(Full Service Access Network), BBF(Broadband Forum), MSF(Multi-service Forum) 등의 표준화 단체에서 활발히 국제표준화가 진행 중이다. 본고에서는 현재 진행되고 있는 차세대 광가입자망 기술에 대한 국내 외 기술개발 현황 및 표준화 현황을 살펴보고자 한다.

As various portable digital devices are developed, the space of the TV audience is expanding. We propose a structure of broadcasting control in VOD service in which viewers can resume the viewing of digital broadcasting contents in different devices after they have stopped the viewing to move to another place. Then we design a session and resource management system of VOD for this control. In particular, we design the session management of each consumer and simulate the seamless VOD connection model.

With the prevalence of diverse services-oriented applications, such as IPTV systems and on-line games, the current underlying communication networks face more and more challenges on the aspects of flexibility and adaptability. Therefore, an effective and efficient multicast routing mechanism, which can fulfill different requirements of different personalized services, is critical and significant. In this paper, we first define the neighbor gradient, which is calculated based on the weighted sum of attributes such as residual link capacity, normalized hop count, etc. Then two distributed multicast routing algorithms which are neighbor Gradient-based Multicast Routing for Static multicast membership (GMR-S) and neighbor Gradient-based Multicast Routing for Dynamic multicast membership (GMR-D), are proposed. GMR-S is suitable for static membership situation, while GMR-D can be used for the dynamic membership network environment. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed methods.

In this paper, a P2P streaming system for community TV service which requires realtime interactions was designed and implemented. The proposed system constructs a short delay tree-based P2P network in order to effectively support various community TV services within end-to-end delay bounds. Because a community service based on conversation requires a short delay. The P2P network of this paper was constructed by using an algorithm which utilizes locality and delay information. The implemented P2P streaming system is composed of a Web server and a application, each of which was implemented using Asp.Net and C#.Net respectively.

In recent years, the development of multimedia devices has meant that a wider multimedia streaming service can be supported, and there are now many ways in which TV channels can communicate with different terminals. Generally, scalable video streaming is known to provide more efficient channel capacity than simulcast video streaming. Simulcast video streaming requires a large network bandwidth for all resolutions, but scalable video streaming needs only one flow for all resolutions. In previous research, scalable video streaming has been compared with simulcast video streaming for network channel capacity, in two user simulation environments. The simulation results show that the channel capacity of SVC is 16% to 20% smaller than AVC, but scalable video streaming is not efficient because of the limit of the present network framework. In this paper, we propose a new network framework with an SVC extractor. The proposed network framework shows a channel capacity 50% (maximum) lower than that found in previous research studies.

KT는 디지털 홈네트워크 사업의 일환으로 2004년 셋탑 기반의 홈엔VOD서비스를 제공한 바 있으며, IP망을 통한 방송서비스의 기반을 마련하기 위해 가입자단까지 IP-멀티캐스팅이 가능한 장비로 교체하여 BcN시범사업의 일환으로 KT CAST 서비스를 제공한 바 있다. 그리고 2006년에는 IPTV사업자로 선정되어 2007년 7월 VOD및 양방향 데이타 서비스만을 포함한 iCOD 서비스를 서울 지역을 시작으로 전국으로 확대 제공하였으며 실시간 방송에 대한 KT의 다각적인 노력의 결실로 지상파 방송서비스에 대한 정부 규제가 풀려 2008년 11월부터 지상파 실시간 방송을 포함하여 다양한 채널 방송이 가능해졌다. 본 논문에서는 일련의 KT가 준비하고 제공하였던 여러 형태의 디지털 영상서비스의 발전 단계를 소개하고 앞으로 메가TV가 나아가야 할 방향에 대하여 기술하고자 한다.
