Demand for new information services is ever increasing as information technology advances in an unprecedented pace. Capabilities of information technology to overcome the time and space limitations enables efficient storage and processing of a large volume of data shared by many users in geographically dispersed areas. As the users ask for more useful information services, it is necessary to develop information services tp meet the needs of users. Enhancing information services is also necessary to cope actively with the pressures to open the information service is also necessary to cope actively with the pressures to open the information and telecommunications market as the level of Korean information services industry is still in its infancy. Value Added Network(VAN) services have a tremendous growth potential and its economic and social impact would be great as the information society matures. This study suggests a direction for the development of value added and new-media services based on the survey of individual and business users of information services.

This is a critical study on the information-offer-function of Korean public library among its several functions. This is not only reviewed about idealogical logical background of formulation of public library in Korea, but also reviewed about changing process o the goal of public library till the development of actual concept of modern public library. This study suggested a proper definition about actual goal of public library in Korea at present. Technocrats say the public library in the future should be both bookless and paperless library. That may mean over-interpretation on information-offer-function of public library among its several functions. When we meet information super highway era, we must not confront information dependence to advanced information countries. Thus, I suggest a way to solve the establishment of information sovereignty through public library in order to avoid the information dependence to advanced information countries.

Recently, e-business has very much attention in the management fields because it is expected to fundamentally change the way many business compete. Business that don't understand the changes and that can't change their operating model in time will be at a disadvantage. Information technology infrastructure and its management are key components of e-business The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of information technology infrastructure and its management to the type of information systems used and the use of e-business. A total of 56 Korean firms responded to the survey instrument. There was indirect effect to the use of e-business from the information technology structure via communication capacity and direct effect from management type. The study also found that firms with less centralized forms of information technology were more frequent users of e-business, Firms that have more freedom in information technology decision making tended to be users of the new technology and take advantage opportunities that exits on the information technology.

Nowadays, medical services can be performed through online. This entails a lot of human resources and different healthcare information. The rapid changes in the healthcare environment through web should be accounted so that the information would be maximally useful. However, medical information acquired online is not regulated; it is not favorable to users because it creates doubts to its reliability and benefits. This study focuses on the online medical information. It gives help to the users through its accessibility" comprehensiveness, continuity and efficiency. An empirical analysis of research model using PLS(partial least squares) shows that the quality of medical information influences the reliability and benefit of the related medical information. If users recognize medical information to be reliable and beneficial, their intention to use the medical information becomes strong.

At present, an intelligent transport system (ITS) is being actively introduced as an alternative plan to solve various transport problems, and a traffic information provision service, a field of ITS, is being provided to users through diverse media. However, the evaluation of how useful the traffic information provided to the road users is limited to a simple questionnaire, and the systematic evaluation about what factors affect the usefulness of traffic information has not been realized. Therefore, it is impossible to calculate user convenience occurring due to traffic information, This paper aimed to develop an index to evaluate user satisfaction levels with traffic information and develop a user satisfaction level model. A result of establishing a user satisfaction level model by executing a questionnaire survey for the analysis object of variable message sign (VMS), a representative information provision medium, showed that 'desire satisfaction', 'trust', 'understanding', and 'efficiency' have an effect. Of them, the 'understanding' showed the highest level, so it was seen that, in case of VMS, how easily the character, figure, expression, etc. provided in the information was understood by users has the biggest effect on the satisfaction level of the information. The next levels of effects on the satisfaction was in the order of 'user trust', 'efficiency', and 'desire satisfaction'.

정부는 현재 직면한 교통문제 해결의 필요성을 인식한 후 1993년부터 대통령 직속 SOC 투자기획단에서 ITS 도입문제를 검토하기 시작하여 1997년 「국가 ITS 기본계획」을 수립히였다. 이를 토대로 정부 및 산·학·연등이 능동적으로 참여하여 ITS 사업이 추진되어 왔다. 그러나 1998년 외환위기에 직면하면서 ITS 사업에 대한 투자 감소등의 환경변화와 동시에 ITS 전문가들은 공급자 중심에서 최종 사용자 중심의 기본계획의 필요성을 제기하면서 ITS 기본계획 개정 필요성이 제기되어 더 현실적이고 융통성이 있는 기본계획을 수립하게 되었다. 이러한 배경을 기본으로 본 논문은 개정된 국가 ITS 기본계획의 내용 즉, 제공서비스, 단계별 구축계획, 단계별 예산 등을 살펴본다.

오늘날 현대 사회의 산업화, 도시화, 고도화는 자동차를 없어서는 안 될 필수품으로 자리매김하도록 하였다. 그에 따라 자동차 수는 1,500만대를 넘어서는 반면, 도로를 포함한 기반 시설의 증가는 연 2% 정도로 턱없이 부족하다. 이러한 현상으로 인해 발생되는 교통 혼잡을 완화하기 위해서 교통시설의 공급을 확대하거나, 교통시설의 효율성을 극대화하기 위한 많은 방안들이 모색되고 있으며, 그 중 교통 시설의 효율성을 높이기 위한 방안으로 부각되고 있는 것이 ITS 및 텔레매틱스 분야 이다. 본고에서는 ITS 및 텔레매틱스와 관련된 국내외 표준화의 현황과 전망에 대해서 살펴본다.

Library authorities are responsible for allocating its resources to best achieve library goals. This means the question of benefits and costs for library activities, as well as a n.0, pplication of economic theory to it. To consider these, this study dealt with theoretical analysis: 1) the nature of economic models, 2) economic theory to library activities, 3) and its a n.0, pplicability. However, economic model method allows us to use an analytic technique that is founded on library production and consumption. Thus, its major contribution is creation of a framework or system for maximizing the efficient library activities.
