  • Recently, although the requirement of quality of VOD content has been transferred upto the class of HD, conventional management systems characterized by OS dependency are truly limited in quality of video image, stability, and compatibility of network environments. In addition most of the content management systems realize very limited capabilities for the real affairs of content management and distribution services in such an OS dependent environment. In this paper, we propose a new scheme of HD-Class VOD Content Management System to solve these problems. We design and implement the proposed system based on open sources by using H.264 video compression method. The proposed system offers high quality content management method based on opened systems and independent on-line distribution method so that it can be realized as an integrated management scheme for VOD contents. Moreover, our system solves the problems of occasional cutting-down video, small screen, and poor image quality that exist in the conventional wmv-type CMS. According to the result of performance evaluation, our system maintains sufficient performance and tolerence for the case of large scale HD content operations or fabrications. We expect that the proposed integrated DB scheme will especially be effective when the content management applications are changed from Internet Web environments to mobile terminal environments.

  • As a recent cyber attack has a characteristic that is intellectual, advanced, and complicated attack against precise purpose and specified object, it becomes extremely hard to recognize or respond when accidents happen. Since a scale of damage is very large, a corresponding system about this situation is urgent in national aspect. Existing data center or integration security framework of computer lab is evaluated to be a behind system when it corresponds to cyber attack. Therefore, this study suggests a better sophisticated next generation convergence security framework in order to prevent from attacks based on advanced persistent threat. Suggested next generation convergence security framework is designed to have preemptive responses possibly against APT attack consisting of five hierarchical steps in domain security layer, domain connection layer, action visibility layer, action control layer and convergence correspondence layer. In domain connection layer suggests security instruction and direction in domain of administration, physical and technical security. Domain security layer have consistency of status information among security domain. A visibility layer of Intellectual attack action consists of data gathering, comparison, decision, lifespan cycle. Action visibility layer is a layer to control visibility action. Lastly, convergence correspond layer suggests a corresponding system of before and after APT attack. An introduction of suggested next generation convergence security framework will execute a better improved security control about continuous, intellectual security threat.

  • As the performance of game consoles is so highly progressed that services such as internet browsing become available on the consoles, the need for text input schemes on game consoles is rapidly raised. In this paper, we present a text input method of alphabet characters and several symbols using a gamepad, which is a widely used input device for most game consoles. Just like other text input methods using gamepad, our method allows users to enter texts by manipulating the gamepad with a user interface displayed on the screen of the console. A key idea of this paper is to present the user interface that is similar to the $4{\times}3$ keypad on mobile phones. The motivation of this idea is a principle that the experience of using a text input tool can be transferred to another tool that has similar interface. Another motivation is that the keyboard-based interface is too complex to be easily manipulated by simple input from a keypad, which is four orthogonal directions and several fire signals. Since most of keys on keypad of $4{\times}3$ keys are represented by a combination of two orthogonal directions, users feel easier in entering texts using keypad-based interface. We prove this argument in this paper by a user test of ten subjects. After about two experiment sessions, subjects reach 13 WPM in average, which proves that the proposed text input method enables much faster text input than the existing keyboard-based text input methods.

  • Purpose - Online shopping enables consumers to conveniently purchase products irrespective of the time and place. As a result, several online shopping companies have emerged to cater to this growing market and, therefore, the competition among them has become increasingly intense. This paper evaluates the comparative efficiency of online shopping companies for a multi-year period (2009-2013), in order to help online shopping managers identify major drivers for enhancing management efficiency and the subsequent competitiveness. Research design, data, and methodology - The researchers collected the data from 2009 to 2013 from the distribution yearbook. This paper analyzes the marketability (sales figures), profitability (business profits), and management conditions (net profits) of domestic online shopping enterprises by incorporating information on human resources (number of employees) and material resources (total assets and capital). Therefore, the number of employees, total assets, and capital are selected as input variables, and sales figures, business profits, and net profits as the output variables. In this study, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to measure the comparative efficiency of domestic online shopping companies. In addition, the Malmquist Productivity Index was used to evaluate the trend of change of Decision Making Units' (DMUs') efficiency for a multi-year period. Results - First, as of 2013, Interpark (2.415) was found to be the most efficient online shopping enterprise, followed by Aladdin Communications (2.117), Hyundai Home shopping (1.867), Home&Shopping (1.176), NS Home shopping (1.170), Commerce Planet (1.126), CJ O Shopping (1.105), Ebay Korea (1.088), and GS Home Shopping (1.051). Second, this study recognizes how the management efficiency has changed for the period 2009-2013. Third, the lesser the capital and employees, the more are the net profits, and the better is the management efficiency of domestic online shopping companies. Lastly, the productivity of such companies is influenced by endogenous factors rather than exogenous factors such as shifts in business environment and technological advances. Conclusions - DHC Korea influenced various distribution channels to reach customers through the Internet. Consequently, this helped in increasing the awareness about its products, in addition to an increase in sales. These achievements can be attributed to the characteristics of online shopping companies. Although it is easy for these companies to suggest goods for one-off purchases, they however have difficulties in retaining customers. Overcoming this challenge can be one of the ways to benchmark a successful case of an efficient company. For example, an online shopping company can attract customers by developing a corresponding mobile application as a convenient way to shop online. Additionally, they can satisfy customers by quick delivery of purchased products, which is possible by building an effective logistics network. Our study indicates that the productivity of an online shopping company was influenced by endogenous factors driven by improvements in managerial practices rather than exogenous factors. Accordingly, online shopping companies should adopt strategies to improve their operational efficiency rather than sales volume-oriented management.

  • TCP(Transmission Control Protocol) is one of the most important Internet protocols, which is widely used in wireless networks as well as wired networks. However, when TCP is deployed for wireless networks, it takes severe performance degradation because TCP was designed for wired network. To overcome this drawback, a number of TCP variants have been proposed in the literature. However, most previous schemes did not consider TCP enhancement over heterogeneous networks. In heterogeneous networks, an mobile node (MN) may move from one access network to another(i.e., vertical handover). In the case of vertical handover, an MN experiences a TCP performance degradation caused by the packet loss and the sudden change of link characteristics between two different access networks. In this work, we investigate the TCP performance degradation occurred in vortical handover across heterogeneous networks. First, we have conducted the measurement study over GPRS-WLAN testbed. In the measurement study. we observed the TCP performance degradation in the case of handover from WLAN to GPRS. In order to study more different TCP behaviors during vertical handover, we performed comprehensive simulations using a network simulator 2(ns-2). Based on measurement and simulation results, we investigated how to improve TCP performance in vertical handover and we concluded that the existing mechanisms cannot be perfect solutions and new mechanisms are strongly required.

  • First this research starts with agreement that comics is 'the sequential art'. It means that over two sequential panels makes how to recognize the story and this research owes to the connection of forward panel and backward panel. Webtoon, internet comics is also consisted to sequential panels. But only it is different with the publish comics by direction, shape, length and so on. So this research tries to make point of the connection between first panel and second panel. Especially it researches what types of connections between the last panel of first episode and the first panel of second one beyond the connections of panels at only episode. This research treats the types of gutter, 'connection' means to continue the same scenes or 'separation' does to devide the story and shows the new scenes. Weekly webtoon must have a kind of break time. The first panel of next episode should remind of the former story, it means easy technique. Otherwise some first panel don't show the same scenes or story so this study researches 130 artworks from the portal sites; Naver, Daum, mobile comics platform; Lezhin Comics and Toptoon, Corea.
