We study the antecedents to tie formation on an (Facebook-like) enterprise social media platform implemented to support cross-boundary connections. Research has produced mixed findings regarding the role of social media in cultivating bridging vs. closed networks. We examine the tie formation patterns of 1,386 enterprise social media users over a two-year period. Specifically, we observe who became (or chose not s become) "friends" with whom at the dyadic level and relate the decisions to various mechanisms that affect one's network to expand, constrain, or bridge. Using logistic and OLS regressions, we find that users tend to form ties via reciprocity and transitivity (with friends of friends), both of which help expand one's network. We also find strong networking tendency toward functional and hierarchical homophily (same business unit and same rank, respectively), which is likely to constrain one's network (closed network structure). We find that one's participation in various online interest groups is likely to open one's network (bridging network structure) while no evidence found for preferential attachment. Overall, we find that enterprise social media offers features, some of which are likely to foster bridging while others foster closed networks via different mechanisms.

This study investigated the perceived usability of the Blackboard learning management system (LMS) amongst students at Umm Al-Qura University. A quantitative approach was employed to explore the potential relationship between Blackboard usability and social media platform usage. Additionally, the study aimed to identify other factors influencing perceived usability. Data were collected through a three-section questionnaire distributed electronically to a sample of students (n=544). The findings, based on System Usability Scale (SUS) scores, revealed that the overall perceived usability of Blackboard resided near the midpoint of the scale, indicating an "acceptable" level. A potential negative correlation emerged between social media usage time and perceived Blackboard usability. Students who reported lower social media usage exhibited higher SUS scores. Training on Blackboard usage demonstrably exerted a positive influence on perceived usability. Gender was not identified as a statistically significant factor. An analysis of student support methods revealed that seeking help from a friend was the most prevalent approach, followed by search engines, university technical support, and social media platforms. The findings suggest that implementing strategies to improve Blackboard usability at Umm Al-Qura University could be achieved through readily accessible training materials and the exploration of alternative support channels.

본 논문은 RTOS(Real-Time Operation System, 리턴어드레스를 위한 유저스택사용 RTOS가 탑재된 CE(Consumer Electronic)제품상에서 리턴어드레스가 유저스택으로 저장하는 것을 지원하지 않는 컴파일러를 위한 알고리즘이며 실험을 위하여 제안된 알고리즘을 상용 컴파일러에 적용하여 비교해보도록 하겠다. 우선 기존 컴파일러 알고리즘으로는 Task마다 할당된 유저스택영역이 존재하며 Task가 수행중 발생된 리턴어드레스는 즉시 할당된 유저스택으로 저장하는 알고리즘을 갖고있다. 이런 알고리즘으로 인하여 인스트럭션이 수행중 빈번한 메모리 접근(external memory)가 발생한다. 그러나 제안된 알고리즘은 Task 수행중에는 리턴어드레스를 시스템스택(internal memory)에 저장한 후 Task 전환이 발생할 경우 일시에 시스템 스택에 저장된 리턴어드레스를 유저스택으로 이동하게 되므로 Task 수행중에는 시스템 스택만을 접근하므로 task의 수행시간을 단축할 수가 있다. 그리고 실험을 위하여 상용 컴파일러들에 본 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 상용 컴파일러로는 매번 리턴어드레스를 자동으로 Task별 할당된 유저스택에 저장할 수 있도록 지원해주는 TASKING 컴파일러(Altium 사)와 그렇지 않은 KEIL컴파일러(KEIL사)가 있으며 본 알고리즘을 KEIL 컴파일러에 적용하여 실험을 하여 TASKING 컴파일러와 비교한 결과 유저스택을 지원하는 TASKING(Altium사) 컴파일러에서 구현한 CE제품의 Response time이 KEIL 컴파일러에서 구현한 CE제품의 Response time 값이 같게 나왔다. 그러므로 KEIL 컴파일러상에 본 알고리즘을 적용시킬 경우 RTOS가 탑재된 CE제품을 보다 용이하게 구현할 수가 있다.

This study multi-dimensionally analyzes a sport documentary, All or Nothing: Manchester City, which is an original content on Prime Video, an American Over-The-Top (OTT) platform. Due to the success of South Korean soccer player Heung-min Son who plays Tottenham Hotspur of England, the popularity of the English Premier league is recently the greatest in South Korea along with the fact that soccer has been a popular sport for a long time. This study focuses on the success of the soccer club, Manchester City, which has become a rising star with its huge investment from United Arab Emirates; Manchester City won the league four times since 1992/1993 season. Also, during the 2017/2018 season, the background the documentary, Manchester City won the league title with new records, which shows the greatness of Manchester City. Especially, this study examines the documentary by 1) Story 2) Type of Scene 3) How to watch. Thus, this study explores not only the aspects of team-themed sport documentary that shows how and why Manchester City is excellent, but also the traits of the original content that explores the structure of the media platform.

Many limitations arise when using washout algorithms to calibrate input values in VR content-making environments using VR HMD and motion platforms. Thus, in this study, we designed a new fabrication method using a control object that turns acceleration into a rotational motion. A total of 30 people were tested to see if the improved method was better than the existing one. The results showed significant differences that the improved method is better for realism, immersion and ride comfort.

As IoT applications that provide AI services increase, various hardware and software that support autonomous learning and inference are being developed. However, as the characteristics and constraints of each hardware increase difficulties in developing IoT applications, the development of an integrated platform is required. In this paper, we propose a tool for automatically generating components based on artificial neural networks and spiking neural networks as well as IoT technologies to be compatible with open platforms. The proposed component automatic generation tool supports the creation of components considering the characteristics of various hardware devices through the virtual component layer of IoT and AI and enables automatic application to open platforms.

The study examines how the discourse on infants' smart media use has been constructed under media-saturated situations. Infants' use of smart media has been regarded as a dangerous activity, rate of overdependence has been increasing. Newspapers during the recent three years (2018-20) were analyzed. The most prominent speakers in the news field were smart media content producers and platform operators. There were negative views and concerns about infants' smart media use by academics, civic groups, and parents. However, the industry went beyond these risk discourses and gave positive meaning: Smart media was redefined as safe media for infants and reliable childcare helpers for parents. Parents were portrayed as those responsible for their children's media use and in need of help for childcare, rather than being blamed for their children's overdependence on smart media. Digital parenting seems to be emerging as an acceptable and practicable way of childcare rather than harmful and incomplete parenting.

This paper is concerned with the development of PCS(Platform for Collaborative System), which is a platform for development of remote collaborative experiment systems. Platform does not aim at the development of special-domain applications. This system implies the common development environments which can develop all-domain applications. PCS consists of collaborative experimental objects such as communication, session, user, application, media, message object and management objects that have management functions. Management objects are made up of collaborative experimental objects and operations which manipulate control information and data. It also supports application sharing for making single user interface of experimental applications to multi-user interface. Application sharing also supports instruments control on the remote site. PCS platform supports total environments for remote collaborative experiment and can be used as infrastructure to all kinds of collaboratory systems.
