General branches of science and engineering now enjoy being substantially repleted in their databases. However, comparing the databases of such branches with chemistry or medical science and pharmacology, the strata do not seem to be fully equipped yet. As a matter of fact, the variety of such databases in practical application is still somewhat limited. Moreover, these databases are, with a few exceptions, prepared abroad. In this paper varieties and features of databases now available on the market for each database service system, as well as crucial points for practical use are introduced. At present, it is focussed more or less on the application of bibliographical information. Yet, it would be inevitable to equip them with factual data in order to increase the efficiency of research and development activities. Of course, it is still not easy to solve problems for better profitability and higher technical achievement. The author wishes to emphasize the necessity to fully equip the commercial factual database for said branches as quickly as possible.

The objective of this study is to investigate the intention to adopt smart wear, based on extended UTAUT model. We examined the effects of performance expectancy (PE), effort expectancy (EE), hedonic motivation (HE), social influence (SI), facilitating conditions (FC), and price value (PV) on the intended adoption of smart watch and smart shoes, respectively. In addition, moderating effects of gender, age, and innovation resistance were examined. An online survey was conducted, comprised of 2030 consumers who were aware of smart watch or smart shoes. In total, 393 responses were analyzed. About 50.4% were male, and 44.8% were in their 20's. An exploratory factor analysis generated five factors - PE & HM, EE, SI, FC, and PV- which were employed as independent variables in the multiple regression models. PE & HM, PV, and SI influenced on the intention to use both smart devices. FC showed the significant effect only on the intention to adopt the smart watch. In terms of gender differences, SI and PV were the important predictors of the intention to adopt the smart watch in the female group only. With respect to age difference, SI was very effective in explaining the intention of individuals in their 30's to adopt smart wear. Among the low innovation resistance group, SI was significant predictor, while PE & HE and PV were significant among the high resistance group. The findings provide useful information about the possibility of the adoption of smart wear, and new insight into market segmentation.

While major alliance container carriers in the post-corona era are enjoying the largest boom in history with their fleet reduction strategy, shippers companies are in a state of deteriorating import and export price competitiveness due to increased logistics costs, and forwarders who act for shipping companies' logistics services are also experiencing the burden of rising freight rates It is in a state of overheated competition and worsening profits for attracting shippers. For this purpose, research data, literature studies, statistical data and data from overseas specialized networks were used as prior research. Online surveys and telephone interviews were conducted, and as a result, four areas of cold chain (including perishable cargo), project logistics, UN procurement logistics, and dangerous goods logistics, which were found to be particularly in high demand, were analyzed to suggest entry strategies.

Presently in 2018, the security market is requiring progressive development and innovation in the area of security on account of new changes and technologies. This means the rapid and prompt development of the service platforms and service-based information systems. Here, this study is going to examine the process of operating a number of services and obtaining security, not the criteria for selecting particular service in online environment where the various services exist. Within a series of flows to protect the manager's authority about the platforms operated by information systems, and to provide and destroy services, this author limits the entire service platforms of the optimized balance module into four categories maximum for the security of the area apt for illegal invasion and access, and the proper area. Also, about the area with limited security, this researcher again applies subordinate security policy and technology respectively. This author here will suggest a method to provide and to extend safety and security for the information system and also propose the process of applying it as well.

Electronic payment is a very crucial function in electronic commerce. As electronic commercial transactions develop on a mobile basis, a variety of electronic payment services that can be conveniently used are appearing. In particular, mobile easy payment services improve the user's convenience of payment and give a positive effect on activating online transactions. In this study we investigate empirically the factors influencing the user resistance to mobile easy payment services. Especially, we compares the main acceptance factors of the mobile easy payment services with the main acceptance resistance factors of the services. By doing that, we derive the implications that could contribute to the vitalizations of the mobile easy payment service market. The research model includes "perceived risk" as a main acceptance resistance factor, and "easy of use" and "usefulness" as the main acceptance factors. The relationship among these three factors, "use conflict", and "user resistance" is expressed in the model. We analyze the model by Structural Equation Model. The results proves that all the research hypotheses are adopted except for the impact of "ease of use" on "use conflict", and that users of mobile easy payment services think of "usefulness" more important than "risk".

Recently, the volume of online shopping market continues to be fast-growing, that is important to provide customized service based on customer behavior evaluation analysis. The existing systems only provide analysis data on the profiles and behaviors of the consumers, and there is a limit to the processing in real time due to disk based mining. There are problems of accuracy and system performance problems to apply existing systems to web services that require real-time processing and analysis. Therefore, The system proposed in this paper analyzes the web click log streams generated in real time to calculate the concentration level of specific products and finds interested customers which are likely to purchase the products, and provides and intensive promotions to interested customers. And we verify the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed system.

Subsequently, this study looks into domestic ODR system and analyzes the regulations of EU ODR. This study suggests the implications of the European ODR regulations in the conclusion. The EU ODR platform is considered greatly significant in that it has increased the possibility of settlements in small disputes by enhancing consumers' accessibility to ADR procedures. Therefore, this thesis proposes a method for Korean companies to resolve disputes that may arise in e-commerce with EU by using the ODR platform. As a result, it is expected to increase the competitiveness of Korean companies in the EU market. Both legislative trends related to the ODR of the EU and establishment of the EU ODR platform have significant implications for Korean businesses in Europe. This study is expected to be useful for our businesses in the EU in reviewing the applicability of the EU ODR regulations and the dispute settlement procedures through the EU ODR platform.
