Being in an internet era, the rapid transmission of 3D mesh models is getting more important and efforts toward the compression of various aspects of mesh models have been provided. Even though a mesh model usually consists of coordinates of vertices and properties such as colors and normals, topology plays the most important part in the compression of other information in the models. Despite the extensive studies on Edgebreaker, the most frequently used and rigorously evaluated topology compressor, the probability distribution of its five op-codes, C, R, E, S, and L, has never been rigorously analyzed yet. In this paper, we present probability distribution of the op-codes which is useful for both the optimization of the compression performance and a priori estimation of compressed file size.

This study was a comparative analysis by youth's internet addiction types. Distribution of internet addiction types, relative influence of risk and protective factors in each addiction type, and common and different risk and protective factors among the internet addiction types were investigated. And, the level of youth's mental health and the effect of internet to youth's mental health were identified. A total of 1,830 youth were surveyed, and the findings were as below: Firstly, 62.3% of the surveyed youth were addicted to internet. In detail, 15.9% had internet game addiction and 10.9% had internet sex addiction. Secondly, in all types of internet addiction, the risk factors gave severer influence than the protective factors did, and the protective factors gave compensation effect to each type of addiction. Thirdly, among the internet addiction types, the common risk factors were depression, aggression, parents' control, and friends' influence, while the protective factor was self control. Among the internet addiction types, a different risk factor was PC access, and the different protective factors included self-efficacy, teacher's support, friend's support, and parents' relationship. Fourthly, in all the three addiction pattern, the addicted adolescents had experienced more psychological symptoms than general internet users had. Finally, in the aspects of psychiatric symptoms, sex addiction gave the worst negative effect, and then game addiction, and internet addiction came in order. And the adolescents who had the higher degree of addiction were more likely to experience psychiatric symptoms.

Recently, the use of digital contents and demand have been increased with expanding users of internet. Thus, the importance of digital contents distribution site's has been increased that deal in commercially. The model that measuring acceptance of web sites is studying lively, however, the web sites that dealing and distributing specific goods to be called digital contents have insufficient theoretical base and model about acceptance of customers. Also, the research that acceptance of existing commercial web sites have limitation to explain systematically which influence on acceptance of digital contents distribution sites. Because, those research connect directly the feature of web sites, the purchase of web sites or the feature of buyers and acceptance. For that reason, it's hard to reflect the feature of digital contents. In this research, to measure customers' acceptance of web sites that distribute digital image, it is based on Technology Acceptance Model by Davis. This research find out the significant cause from survey by users of digital image distribution site. and TAM which has been adapted the analyzation of new site's acceptance can explain the state of digital image distribution site use. This research let us know the evaluation of digital image distribution site and operating strategy as a new business model.

Generally, as for the multimedia high quality contents, an illegality facsimile is possible without a damage of a quality. Also a distribution of contents duplicated illegality in an Internet is giving a great economic loss to digital contents provider. Therefore, a study for security and efficient distribution of digital contents is required. The most important issues in a design of digital contents distribution system are a user convenience, an execution speed and a security. In this study, we designed digital contents distribution system that used a web caching technology and an encryption/decryption technique on hierarchical structure. The proposed system was the digital contents distribution system that improved a security and execution speed, a convenience of a user. Also it verified performance superiority of a proposed system by an examination.

The objective of the present study lies in constructing web-based GIS system providing broad range of information applicable for power/telecommunications distribution facilities through cable. Nowadays, Korea is renowned forits faste sttele communications network across the nation enjoyable for being a test-runbed by worldwide contents providers. It is not too much to say that the trend is caused by the fact that Korea utilizes the cobweb-like power transmission cables applicable for the nationwide telecommunications networking. In particular, the trend has been all the more encouraged by the governmental drive to expedite the telecommunication network by way of the established power transmission facilities deemed as publicutility. Nevertheless, few can deny that the overexcessive competition among telecommunication service providers increasingly gives rise to unauthorized, arbitrary facilitation of distribution devices, which becomes much burden in operating the normal power/telecommunications distribution facilities by a power-generating company. In this regard, the study, to cope with such problems, attempts to develop a web GIS-based information management system compatible with NDIS(New Distribution Information System), a distribution facility management system now under operation by KEPCO, making advantage of GE Energy's SIAS(Smallworld Internet Application) technology. The model provided by this study is expected to get closer into effective operation of distribution facilities along with better sharing of information among conventional telecommunications operators, while getting rid of infringed facilitation cases

Content-based image retrieval has been the most important technique for managing huge amount of images. The fundamental yet highly challenging problem in this field is how to measure the content-level similarity based on the low-level image features. The primary difficulties lie in the great variance within images, e.g. background, illumination, viewpoint and pose. Intuitively, an ideal similarity measure should be able to adapt the data distribution, discover and highlight the content-level information, and be robust to those variances. Motivated by these observations, we in this paper propose a probabilistic similarity learning approach. We first model the distribution of low-level image features and derive the free energy kernel (FEK), i.e., similarity measure, based on the distribution. Then, we propose a learning approach for the derived kernel, under the criterion that the kernel outputs high similarity for those images sharing the same class labels and output low similarity for those without the same label. The advantages of the proposed approach, in comparison with previous approaches, are threefold. (1) With the ability inherited from probabilistic models, the similarity measure can well adapt to data distribution. (2) Benefitting from the content-level hidden variables within the probabilistic models, the similarity measure is able to capture content-level cues. (3) It fully exploits class label in the supervised learning procedure. The proposed approach is extensively evaluated on two well-known databases. It achieves highly competitive performance on most experiments, which validates its advantages.

Wireless sensor networks that are easy to deploy and install are ideal for building a system that monitors the condition of the equipment in a factory environment where wiring is difficult. The ZigBee has characteristics of low price and low power compared with other wireless communication protocols and is suitable for a monitoring system requiring a plurality of nodes. ZigBee communication requires encryption security between devices because all protocol layers are based on OTM trusted by each other. In the communication between nodes, node authentication must be guaranteed and exposure of confidential information managed by each node should be minimized. The facilities of the factory are regular and stationary in distribution location. In order to protect the information gathered from the sensor in the factory environment and the actuator control information connected to the sensor node, we propose a cryptosystem based on the two - dimensional grid - based key distribution method similar to the distribution environment of the facility.

This paper proposes a histogram specification based image enhancement method, which uses the brightness mean and variance of an image to maximize the entropy of the image. In our histogram specification step, the Gaussian distribution is used to fit the input histogram as well as produce the target histogram. Specifically, the input histogram is fitted with the Gaussian distribution whose mean and variance are equal to the brightness mean(${\mu}$) and variance(${\sigma}2$) of the input image, respectively; and the target Gaussian distribution also has the mean of the value ${\mu}$, but takes as the variance the value which is determined such that the output image has the maximum entropy. Experimental results show that compared to the existing methods, the proposed method preserves the mean brightness well and generates more natural looking images.

In recent years, e-Commerce is very active on the Internet, especially the World Wide Web along with the popularization of Internet using high-speed networks. Especially, Electronic Software Distribution(ESD) is widely being focused as one of the popular researches. However, the existing models of ESD lack substantial illegal copy protection or copyright protection as they have the shortcomings of guaranteeing anonymity of users. This study suggests an ESD protocol that guarantees substantial copyright protection and anonymity based on the Public Key Infrastrncture(PKl). The suggested method does not give the information of a buyer who doesn't want to reveal to a seller, and protects illegal copy and distribution as well. When it happens that illegal copies are in circulation, this method provides a device to trace back its original distributor so that it helps protect the copyright. In addition, it provides more convenient environment to the user by not using the methods of serial number input and extra installation to use.
