  • A Hierarchical Server Structure for Parallel Location Information Search of Mobile Hosts이동 컴퓨팅 환경의 발전은 기존의 분산 시스템에서는 볼 수 없었던 이동 호스트의 위치 정보 관리 문제, 이동 호스트의 접속 단절 문제, 낮은 무선 통신 대역폭의 문제 등 과 같은 새로운 문제점을 발생시켰다. 특히 이동 호스트의 위치 정보 관리 기법은 이동 컴퓨팅 환경의 성능을 저하시킨다. 이동 호스트의 이동성으로 인해 이동 호스트의 주소가 이동 호스트의 위치에 종속적으로 변화하며, 이동 호스트의 주소는 고유 주소와 현재 주소의 사상을 통해 관리된다. 이동 호스트의 고유 주소와 현재 주소를 사상시켜 주기 위한 이전의 기법들은 이동 호스트의 증가 및 위치 정보의 분산관리를 고려하지 않았기 때문에 시스템의 확장성에 큰 문제를 가지고 있다. 이 논문에서는 이동 호스트의 주소를 분산 관리하기 위해 개선된 n-깊이 위치 정보 탐색 트리와 개선된 n-깊이 위치 정보 탐색 트리를 기반으로 한 병렬적 위치 정보 탐색과 갱신 기법을 제안한다. 개선된 n-깊이 위치 정보 탐색 트리는 링 구조를 이용하여 위치 정보 서버를 지역적으로 분할한 위치 정보 서버의 논리적 계층 구조이며, 병렬적 탐색 기법을 기반으로 이동 호스트의 위치 탐색 비용과 갱신 비용을 줄였다. 개선된 n-깊이 위치 정보 탐색 트리를 기반으로 한 위치 정보 탐색/갱신 기법은 위치 정보 서버의 논리적 위치가 멀리 떨어져 있는 경우에도 병렬적 탐색 기법을 통해 기존의 방법보다 좋은 결과를 보인다. 또한, 탐색비용의 감소에도 불구하고 갱신 비용의 증가를 가져오지 않는다.

  • With the development of related technologies, Location-Based Services (LBS) are growing fast and being used in many ways. Past LBS studies have focused on adoption of LBS because of the fact that LBS users have privacy concerns regarding revealing their location information. Meanwhile, the number of LBS users and revenues from LBS are growing rapidly because users can get some benefits by revealing their location information. Little research has been done on how LBS affects consumers' information search behavior in product purchase. The purpose of this paper is examining the effect of LBS information filtering on buyers' uncertainty and their information search behavior. When consumers purchase a product, they try to reduce uncertainty by searching information. Generally, there are two types of uncertainties - knowledge uncertainty and choice uncertainty. Knowledge uncertainty refers to the lack of information on what kinds of alternatives are available in the market and/or their important attributes. Therefore, consumers having knowledge uncertainty will have difficulties in identifying what alternatives exist in the market to fulfil their needs. Choice uncertainty refers to the lack of information about consumers' own preferences and which alternative will fit in their needs. Therefore, consumers with choice uncertainty have difficulties selecting best product among available alternatives.. According to economics of information theory, consumers narrow the scope of information search when knowledge uncertainty is high. It is because consumers' information search cost is high when their knowledge uncertainty is high. If people do not know available alternatives and their attributes, it takes time and cognitive efforts for them to acquire information about available alternatives. Therefore, they will reduce search breadth. For people with high knowledge uncertainty, the information about products and their attributes is new and of high value for them. Therefore, they will conduct searches more in-depth because they have incentive to acquire more information. When people have high choice uncertainty, people tend to search information about more alternatives. It is because increased search breadth will improve their chances to find better alternative for them. On the other hand, since human's cognitive capacity is limited, the increased search breadth (more alternatives) will reduce the depth of information search for each alternative. Consumers with high choice uncertainty will spend less time and effort for each alternative because considering more alternatives will increase their utility. LBS provides users with the capability to screen alternatives based on the distance from them, which reduces information search costs. Therefore, it is expected that LBS will help users consider more alternatives even when they have high knowledge uncertainty. LBS provides distance information, which helps users choose alternatives appropriate for them. Therefore, users will perceive lower choice uncertainty when they use LBS. In order to test the hypotheses, we selected 80 students and assigned them to one of the two experiment groups. One group was asked to use LBS to search surrounding restaurants and the other group was asked to not use LBS to search nearby restaurants. The experimental tasks and measures items were validated in a pilot experiment. The final measurement items are shown in Appendix A. Each subject was asked to read one of the two scenarios - with or without LBS - and use a smartphone application to pick a restaurant. All behaviors on smartphone were recorded using a recording application. Search breadth was measured by the number of restaurants clicked by each subject. Search depths was measured by two metrics - the average number of sub-level pages each subject visited and the average time spent on each restaurant. The hypotheses were tested using SPSS and PLS. The results show that knowledge uncertainty reduces search breadth (H1a). However, there was no significant correlation between knowledge uncertainty and search depth (H1b). Choice uncertainty significantly reduces search depth (H2b), but no significant relationship was found between choice uncertainty and search breadth (H2a). LBS information filtering significantly reduces the buyers' choice uncertainty (H4) and reduces the negative relationship between knowledge uncertainty and search breadth (H3). This research provides some important implications for service providers. Service providers should use different strategies based on their service properties. For those service providers who are not well-known to consumers (high knowledge uncertainty) should encourage their customers to use LBS. This is because LBS would increase buyers' consideration sets when the knowledge uncertainty is high. Therefore, less known services have chances to be included in consumers' consideration sets with LBS. On the other hand, LBS information filtering decrease choice uncertainty and the near service providers are more likely to be selected than without LBS. Hence, service providers should analyze geographically approximate competitors' strength and try to reduce the gap so that they can have chances to be included in the consideration set.

  • 선박경제운항이란 기상예측정보를 활용하여 연료소모량을 최소화하도록 선박을 운항하는 것으로서 최근 다양한 선박경제운항 시스템이 연구되고 있다. 성공적인 선박경제운항을 위해서는 효율적인 최적의 지리적 경로탐색 방법이 필요한데 기존의 시스템에서는 주로 Dijkstra 알고리즘 기반의 최소정적비용 경로탐색 알고리즘으로 접근하고 있다. 그러한 접근법을 적용하기 위해서는 특히 연료소모량으로 정의되는 간선의 비용을 고정해야 하는데 선박이 그 간선을 실제 지날 때의 기상 상황에 따라 연료소모량이 변할 수 있다는 점에서 적절하지 않은 가정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 그러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 Dijkstra 알고리즘을 변형한 최소동적비용 경로탐색 알고리즘을 제안한다. 또한, 실행시간을 단축하기 위해 $A^*$ 알고리즘을 활용하여 탐색공간을 효과적으로 줄이기 위한 방법도 제시한다. 총 10개의 테스트 노선에 대해서 본 논문에서 제안된 시스템을 기존의 단순한 최단거리 운항방법과 비교한 결과, 운항소요시간은 거의 차이가 없으면서도 연료소모량을 평균 2.36%, 최대 4.82% 개선시킬 수 있었다.

  • The purpose of this study is to verify the correlations between the amount of the online searcher's search experience and their search effect. In order to achieve this purpose, the 28 online searchers working at the chosen libraries and information centers have participated in the study as subjects. The subjects have been classified into the two types of cognitive style by Group Embedded Figure Test. As the result of the GEFT, two groups have been identified: the 15 Field Independance ( FI ) searchers and the 13 Field Dependance ( FD ) searchers. The subject's search experience consists of the 3 elements: disciplinary, training, and working experience. In order to get the data of these empirical elements, a questionnaire have been sent to the 28 subjects. An online searching request form prepared by a practical user was sent to all subjects, who conducted searches of the oversea databases through Dialog to retrieve what was requested. The resultant outcomes were collected and sent back to the user to evaluate relevance and pertinence of the search effect by the individual. In this study, the search effect has been divide into relevance and pertinence. The relevance has been then subdivided into the 3 elements : the number of the relevant documents, recall ratio, and the cost per a relevant document. The relevance has been subdivided into the 3 elements: the number of the pertinent documents, utility ratio, and the cost per a pertinent document. The correlations between the 3 elements of the subject's experience and the 6 elements of the search effect has been analysed in the FI and in the FD searchers separately. At the standard of the 0.01 significance level, findings and conclusions made in the study are summarised as follows : 1. There are strong correlations between the amount of training and the recall ratio, the number of the pertinent documents, and the utility ratio on the part of FI searchers. 2. There are strong correlations between the amount of working experience and the number of the relevant documents, the recall ratio on the part of FD searchers. However, there is also a significant converse correlation between the amount of working experience and the search cost per a pertinent document on the part of FD searchers. 3. The amount of working experience has stronger correlations with the number of the pertinent documents and the utility ratio on the part of FD searchers than the amount of training. 4. There is a strong correlation between the amount of training and the pertinence on both part of FI and FD searchers.

  • Internet vendors are gradually realizing the importance of "locking-in" online customers in order to ensure profitability. Erection of switching barriers increases customers'lock-in and in turn may result in their willingness to pay price-premium for the same service. However, raising customer lock-in online is difficult because search costs are very low. Therefore, this study examines the effect of switching barriers (customer satisfaction, perceived value and relative advantage) on switching costs and the effect of switching costs on customer's willingness to pay more. Since switching costs and consequent relationships may depend upon the type of product therefore the research model in this study is examined for both search products and experience products. Data is collected through an online survey from two websites (one each for search product and experience product). The empirical results show the key role of switching costs in customers' willingness to pay more and the relationships among the four constructs. The theoretical and practical implications of this study are also discussed.

  • Fast IP address lookup in routers is essential to achieve packet forwarding in wire-speed. The longest prefix matching for IP address lookup is more complex than exact matching because of its dual dimensions, length and value. By thoroughly studying the current proposals for IP address lookup, we find out that the binary search could be a low-cost solution while providing high performance. Most of the existing binary search algorithms based on trie have simple data structures which can be easily implemented, but they have some problems because of empty internal nodes. The proposed algorithm is based on trie structure, but empty internal nodes are replaced by priority prefixes. The best-matching-prefix search in the proposed algorithm is more efficiently performed since search can be finished earlier when input is matched with a priority prefix. The performance evaluation results show that the constructed priority-trie has very good performance in the lookup speed and the scalability.
