A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed to determine the content of cholesterol in milk and dairy products. To optimize separation of cholesterol, mobile phases including acetonitrile:2-propanol (8:1, v/v), acetonitrile:methanol (3:1, v/v), and acetonitrile:methanoI:2-propanol (7:3: I, v/v/v) were compared. Acetonitrile/methanol/2-propanol was superior to the other mobile phase systems for separating cholesterol. Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) of cholesterol was simplified using a non-polar solvent, hexane, to remove interfering compounds, and had an excellent recovery $(100{\pm}1.0%)$ of cholesterol. A solid phase extraction (SPE) method using Sep-pak $C_{18}$ was developed and compared with LLE. The SPE method was rapid and highly reproducible. Both extraction methods were useful when used in combination with saponification of esterified cholesterol to facilitate total cholesterol determination. The detection limit of cholesterol was $0.01{\mu}g$. The newly developed HPLC method was rapid, simple, and accurate, and has advantages over the many methods commonly used.

Purpose: In this paper, we developed a reliability index (RI) to efficiently compare reliability of products based on the design, development and production information such as reliability tests, quality, product life-cycle management. RI also can be applied to reliability prediction of a novel product as well as comparison evaluation among existing products. Methods: For evaluating RI, we proposed evaluation process which is composed of five steps. Target modules are selected based on warranty data and correlation analysis. Scores of selected target modules are calculated by scoring function. Finally, weights of RI model are determined by optimization method. Results: This paper presented an empirical analysis based on failure data of mobile devices. In this case study, we demonstrated that there is a direct correlation between evaluated RI and field failure probability of each product. Conclusion: We proposed the index for comprehensive and effective assessment of product reliability level. From the procedure of this study, we expected to be applied for reliability estimation of novel products and deduction of field failure-related factors.

Objective: This study introduces user experience measurement and its application for senior friendly products. Background: Measuring user experience for senior friendly product is very important for its design, but the measurement is not easy. Method: This study was focused on case studies for user experience measurement and its application for senior friendly product. Mobile patient lift and four wheeled walker that assist the old's mobility were studied. User experience was measured through interview and observation method. Result: From measuring the user experience, some usability issues were identified for the products. A method to apply QFD(quality function deployment) in design process was proposed. A design prototype was also developed considering user experience. Conclusion: User experience measurement for senior friendly products is key process for user centered design. Application: The method and result of this study can be applied to user experience measurement and design of senior friendly product.

As the amount of the wireless mobile products like a 'Smart phone' used increases, the studies about the Location Based Service (LBS) is highly increasing. Outdoor location determination can use the GPS which is built-in in the wireless mobile products. However, it is not possible to use GPS inside the huge cruise bigger than a normal building, it is regarded to consider Indoor location determination which is appropriate at the inside environment. Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) does not need an extra installation process because it is already installed here and there inside the building. In this respect, Wi-Fi has low price competitiveness compared to other wireless sensor products. In this paper, I will introduce 'Bayesian Algorithm' which can recognize useful space with Wi-Fi signal.

Retail space itself could be one of the marketing strategies, through creating space, and communicating brand identity. Especially for innovative products, such as mobile technology products, store is not just to sell products but to provide experiences so that users can fudge usefulness of products and reduce uncertainties to adopt the products. The purpose of this study is to investigate how environmental features and physical artifacts contribute to promote experiences of innovative products in stores and how physical environment help to establish brand identity. For this study, site visits, observation, and literature review were conducted. For case studies, three retail spaces (Apple, Iriver, Sony) and one service space(TTL) were selected. Compared to the service space, three retail spaces have more transparent and open store front design characteristics. For the experiences of shoppers, products displayed in a radial shape, round shape, column shape, and around peripherals of the stores. A service oriented space, TTL zone is differentiated from three retail spaces in terms of layout, store front design, and experience areas. Compared to the traditional stores selling innovative products, the case stores showed more warm atmosphere using various shape, wood materials, lighting fixtures and furniture.

The mobile industry is waking up to the reality that customers buy 'services', not technology. Thekey is to deliver a variety of differentiated services today and improve them as the advanced technology becomes available. In the increasingly data centric world of the future, the emphasis will be on the provision of a range of services audio, video, data and multimedia and of course speech. As we move closer to the realization of these mobile services in the conglomeration of converged networks, new challenges are being faced by the technology and application developers as well as the service providers to design, test and integrate new products and services. Functionalities like availability, scalability, performance and compatibility have become more important. This paper discusses the new test paradigms in the mobile networks, both from the applications and the protocols perspective.

As well as the development of the measurement of service quality, various kinds of service measurements are also being developed. Especially the mobile telecommunication service being representative to the mobile telecommunication company would be the mostly developed area. Its development can be understood along with the development of the telecommumication companies as well as cellular companies, not only the service alone. It is a differentiated phenomenon in the current research, such as the organic influence between the service quality and product. Of course there are such products placed on sale and enjoyed the common service, but at present there is another case that the product is on the market exclusively with the mobile company in here.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of sensibility and compatibility from function sounds of mobile phones. For this purpose, the present study extracted sensibility adjectives and carried out sensibility evaluation to identify the sensibility factors in the function sounds of mobile phones. And 65 sound sources out of six categories were investigated for 27 subjects. The result showed that two dominant sensibility factors were the duration and the melody pattern of the sound sources. The compatibilities of opening and closing sounds were evaluated lowly with short duration and quick tempo. Especially, the most of the subjects preferred more attractive and longer opening sounds than other function sounds. Another finding was that the short sounds with melodies were preferred for cancellations and alerts, unliked the commonly used sound sources in industry and other traditional electronic products.

As the function of digital products gets diverse and complex, more than 30~40% job of software developing and testing group within its development cycle, concentrates on the software testing[1]. To cope with consumers'quickly changing needs, development cycle time gets short, and the number of model and test items increase steadily This is why automating software basic function and UI(User Interface) verification is needed [4][5][6]. This paper draws many strength and weakness defines Input/Output through integrating mobile phone, DVDP, PDA, and Black-Box (Intrusive (mobile) or Non-Intrusive(DVDP, PDA)) testing systematically, which brought above the 64% average of automation rate, and ensure 80% of test coverage [4][5][6].
