  • Electronic Commerce is rapidly expanding with the development of internet and will be very useful for the consumers in the future. However, we could not find many studies on consumers' attitudes and behaviors in the cybermarket. The purpose of this study is to analyze perceptions of college students in Seoul and Chunchon on Electronic Commerce. The main findings are as follows. First, they prefer surfing on the net with search engines like Simmamai or Yahoo to directly looking over the homepages of department stores and advertisement sites. Students in Chunchon, especially, tend to check out banners at E-mail sites. Second, most of the students get information about shopping mall sites and products from their friends, newspapers or magazines. And they want to have information (advertisements) classified by brand names of the products. Third, students in Seoul rely on brand names more than those in Chunchon do. Students in Chunchon, compared with those in Seoul, believe more kinds of products are available in the internet shopping mall. They complain, however, deficiencies of information about the products and high prices. They want the price information compared with those in traditional markets. Fourth, they feel very uncomfortable about informing their credit card numbers, and thus prefer payments with Electronic Money. And finally, they are not satisfied with return and exchange policies and after-sale services. They also complain that the products are not delivered safely when they are not home. They want the delivery-date indicated.

  • Wireless networks play a very important role in communications today. For example, wireless networks today provide from the basic services like e-mail and FTP to the multimedia applications like Web service. It is obvious that QoS requirements to these diverse applications over wireless networks will continue as in wired networks. Much research has been done to develop QoS supporting algorithms on Internet. But due to the limited bandwidth and varying channel states of the wireless networks, it is difficult to support differentiated service over wireless networks. In this paper we propose the modified wireless token ring protocol supporting QoS to the real-time traffic service node over Internet environments in which non-real-time and real-time traffic service nodes coexist. In the proposed algorithm, the real-time traffic service node gets the priority to take token over the non-real-time traffic service node. So the proposed algorithm support quick transmission of the real-time traffic service node. And this advantage can be obtained with minor modification of the legacy wireless token ing protocol to support QoS. We also consider the lost token recovery mechanism.

  • In this paper, we propose for improving QoS in wireless micro cellular network using Cellular-IP/PRC(Paging Route Cache) with Paging Cache and Route Cache in Cellular-IP and propose for performance of realtime and non-real time handoff service using Handoff state machine Paging Route Cache. Although the Cellular-IP/PRC technology is devised for mobile internet communication, it bas its vulnerability in frequent handoff environment. On the other hand, Cellular IP combines the capability of cellular networks to provide high performance handoff and efficient location management of active and idle mobile users with the inherent flexibility, robustness and scalability found in IP networks. Also Cellular-IP/PRC use semi-soft handoff. During semi-soft hand off a mobile host may be in contact with either of the old and new base stations and receive packets from them. Packets intended to the mobile node are sent to both base stations and buffered, so when the mobile host eventually moves to the new location it can continue to receive packets without interruption. It should be suitable for realtime service such as multimedia traffic. But, much waste of resource will occur in this method, especially for non-real time services such as FTP and E-mail. Therefore, a new algorithm that performs different handoff according to characteristic of each traffic by use of reserved field in IP packet is proposed in this thesis. This hand off state machine using differentiated handoff improves quality of services in Cellular-IP/PRC. Suggested algorithm shows better performance than existing technology in wireless mobile internet communication environment. Matlab simulation results are improving QoS, show call drop and call blocking provided to Paging Router Cache during handoff state machine in Cellular-IP/PRC.

  • In order to solve the problems such as overload, single point of failure, non-optimized data path, and network scalability in conventional central mobility management protocols, distributed mobility management schemes have been continually studied in and around the IETF. In this paper, a network-based partially-distributed mobility management mechanism, pDMMv6, is suggested and the performance comparison with traditional protocols such as PMIPv6 and MIPv6 is made through simulation under the various user traffic environment. The simulation results include UDP packet delivery ratio, end-to-end packet delay, binding delay for registration signaling, CPU utilization in each node, and response delays in several server-client TCP applications such as web browsing, e-mail, telnet remote login, FTP file up/down-load, and database access.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of 8 weeks smoking cessation program(SCP) developed by researchers. Method: One group pretest-posttest design was used in this study. The subjects were 88 male university students who consented to participate in the 8 weeks SCP. The SCP in this study consisted of a stop-smoking class, e-mail, SMS(short message service), cellular phone, internet cafe, displayed panel, and patch or acupuncture for quitting smoking. Korean version of questionnaire for nicotine dependency by Ahn et al.(2002), the smoking self-efficacy scale translated by Choi(1999) and subjects' opinion about the SCP were measured. The data were analyzed by using frequency, Chi-Square test, paired t-test and repeated measures ANOVA with SPSS WIN 10.1 Program. Results: 1) The rate of quitting smoking was 31.8% after 8 weeks SCP. 2) There was no significant decrease in the nicotine dependency score among smoking subjects after SCP. 3) There was a significant increase in self-efficacy after SCP. The mean score of self -efficacy in the quitting smoking group increased significantly, but did not significantly change in the smoking group. 4) The stop-smoking class was the most helpful among contents of the SCP. Contents of the SCP except for internet cafe were useful for quitting smoking in this study. Conclusion: The above results indicated that the 8 weeks SCP would be a helpful intervention to quit smoking for male university students.

  • The core of the block chain technology is solving the problem of agreement on double payment, and the PoW, PoS and DPoS algorithms used for this have been studied. PoW in-process proofs are consensus systems that require feasible efforts to prevent minor or malicious use of computing capabilities, such as sending spam e-mail or initiating denial of service (DoS) attacks. The proof of the PoS is made to solve the Nothing at stake problem as well as the energy waste of the proof of work (PoW) algorithm, and the decision of the sum of each node is decided according to the amount of money, not the calculation ability. DPoS is that a small number of authorized users maintain a trade consensus through a distributed network, whereas DPS provides consent authority to a small number of representatives, whereas PoS has consent authority to all users. If PoS is direct democracy, DPoS is indirect democracy. This study aims to contribute to the continuous development of the related field through the study of the algorithm of the block chain agreement.
