Mean, SD. t-test, $X^2-test$, Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, Multiple Regression and One-way ANOVA for hypothesis verification. The results of this study are as follows. 1. The hypothesis is that there will be a significant difference in performance degree of health behavior by general characteristics(sex, age, educational background, occupation, religion) of subjects. According to the results, it turned out that sex(P=.035), educational background(P=.0432), and occupation(P=.440) appeared to be a significant difference as P<.05. 2. The hypothesis that the more interesting degree on health of subjects have, the better they performance for health behavior was supported (r=.2552, P<.001). 3. The hypothesis that the healthier subjects are, the better they performance for health behavior was supported(r=.5262, P<.001). The highest correlation was seen between the healthier subjects and health behavior. According to the results of multiple regression analysis with interesting degree on health and healthier subjects as dependent variables, it turned out that R2 was 35% and had a significant difference. 4. The hypothesis is that there will be a difference in the utilization of health service by general characteristics(sex, age, educational background, occupation, religion).

Recently, smart cards with multi-applications loaded are becoming popular owing to many advantages. As many casual users would like to reduce the number of plastic cards, and card issuers want to upgrade the existing applications or add the new applications, and developers wish to reduce the development turn-around time, multi-applications smart cards are becoming important. In addition, many advantages exist between the business partners as smart card applications can share critical information. New operating systems such as JavaCard and MULTOS are suggested for the multi-applications smart card service recently. In this paper, after we review the principles of operations of smart card, we propose the various security mechanisms for the multi-application JavaCard service environment, which is becoming de facto standard in the industry.
