With the increasing popularity of social network services (SNSs), there have been many attempts to analyze the users of SNSs. By doing so, the characteristics and preferences of the users can be understood, which can help companies provide personalized information and services that they need or are relevant for them. This study aimed to analyze the usage behavior of Korean Twitter users from various perspectives to deepen the understanding of it. For this research goal, an online survey was conducted for the users of Twitter and the data about their actual usage were collected using the open API of Twitter. Factor analysis of the data revealed five factors that explain about 69.3% of the usage variables. It was also investigated how the factors are related to gender, age, and brand preferences. The results showed that the usage behavior of Twitter is largely affected by age (p<0.001), and also by gender through an interaction effect (p<0.05). Also, the factors showed significant statistical correlations with the brand preferences of the users.

The Swaption is one of the popular Interest rates derivatives. In spite of such a popularity, the swaption pricing formula is hard to derived within the theoretical consistency. Most of swaption pricing model are heavily depending on the simulation technique. We present a new class of swaption model based on the multi-factor HJM levy-mixture model. A key contribution of this paper is to provide a generalized swaption pricing formula encompassing many market stylize facts. We provide an approximated closed form solution of the swaption price using the Gram-Charlier expansion. Specifically, the solution form is similar to the market models, since our approximation is based on the Lognormal distribution. It can be directly compared with the traditional Black's formula when the size of third and fourth moments are not so large. The proposed extended levy model is also expected to be capable of producing the volatility smiles and skewness.

The clear and mechanical definition of quality is the key success factor for its wide adoption across various industries and non-profit organizations and its popularity as a managerial goal. However, 'Quality of Life'(QOL) which is a common research subject for the various social science fields seems to require a quite different conceptualization of quality. The paper is a conceptual paper which identifies the compatibility and differences between a traditional quality concept and quality in QOL studies. Also, demonstrating from the social systems perspective how quality is conceptualized in measuring the social dimensions of consumption environmental quality, the paper argues the necessity of a broadened concept regarding quality.

Internet community's popularity Is growing at an impressive rate. Sooner or later, most people come face to face with the decision of using the mobile internet or mobile community. This study developed and empirically tested a research model, QSL(Quality-Satisfaction-Loyalty) model. The reliability and validity of the measurement test were peformed. Based on a survey at university, this study showed that consultation system is significant on overall customer satisfaction. The possibility of human network is very important in generating overall customer satisfaction. We empirically found that the important role of customer satisfaction as partial moderating factor between service qualities and customer loyalty.

One means of fulfilling $CO_2$ emission legislation is to downsize engines by boosting their power using turbochargers or mechanical superchargers. This reduces fuel consumption by decreasing the engine displacement. When a turbocharger, which is preferable to a mechanical supercharger in terms of fuel efficiency, is used, there is insufficient availability of exhaust gas energy at low engine speeds, resulting in an unfavorable engine response. Therefore, mechanically driven superchargers have increased in popularity due to their quick response to changing speeds in the transient phase. However, since a mechanical supercharger obtains its driving power from the engine, it is difficult to decrease its fuel consumption. This remains a large negative factor for superchargers, despite their excellent dynamic performance. This study aims to develop a power control concept to improve the fuel economy of a mechanical screw supercharger, which could then be used for engine downsizing.

The method of electrical discharge machining (EDM), one of the processing methods based on non-traditional manufacturing procedures, is gaining increased popularity, since it does not require cutting tools and allows machining involving hard, brittle, thin and complex geometry. This present investigation details the determination of optimum process parameter to attain the better machining performance in EDM of AISI 4340 steel with graphite as a tool electrode. The experimental combinations are planned and analyzed by Taguchi's design of experiments approach. To predict the optimal condition, the experiments are conducted by using Taguchi's L27 orthogonal array. The influence of process variables such as discharge current, pulse on and pulse off time, voltage and spark speed were investigated to control the various desired performance measures such as surface roughness. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) has to be performed to know the magnitude of each factor. Investigations indicate that the surface roughness is strongly depend on pulsed current.

In recent years, we have witnessed a growing popularity of virtual reality (VR) technology. Understanding the factors that contribute to a comfortable VR viewing experience is crucial for its successful implementation. This study specifically explored the role of gender in determining the ideal viewing distance for VR animation. To do so, we enlisted 100 participants, comprising 41 males and 59 females, and had them engage in a VR animation viewing task, during which we recorded their preferred viewing distances. Our findings revealed that there was no significant distinction between males and females regarding their favored VR animation viewing distances. These results suggest that when creating VR content, gender may not be a noteworthy factor to take into account when determining the optimal viewing distances for a comfortable experience.

The purpose of this research was to analyze the clothing behavioral attributes of male music enthusiasts. A questionnaire was developed based on previous researches. Respondents were men who were concerned with music in terms of a job, a major or a hobby. A total of 200 responses were analyzed by SPSS 20.0 through factor analysis with Varimax rotation, ANOVA with post-hoc test(SNK-test) and ${\chi}^2$-test. Music preference was classified into 3 factors: New age/jazz, Hiphop/dance, and Metal rock/ballad factor. 5 Clothing purchasing orientation factors were extruded: hedonic, planned, convenience, brand pursued, and fashion pursued purchasing orientation. Using those factor scores, 3 groups were classified: Group1(G1), preferring Hiphop/dance music with lower hedonic and brand/fashion pursued purchasing orientation; G2, preferring Hiphop/dance music with no interest in clothing shopping and fashion; G3, preferring New age music with high convenience and brand pursued purchasing orientation. In addition, there were significant differences among groups in clothing behavior such as social ostentation, individuality, self-expression, fashionability, conformity; in purchase motivation such as hedonic and trend/designer oriented purchase motivation; in information source like advertisement/media source; and in store choice criteria such as store light/music and popularity. The findings showed even the enthusiasts for the same music showed the different sopping orientation and different clothing behavior, suggesting that a personal value or taste can be a plausible factor to figure out attributes of consumers. An interest/involvement in clothing could be helpful to subdivide the music enthusiasts as the target market.

트래픽 오프로딩은 폭발적으로 증가하는 모바일 트래픽에 대응하기 위한 유망 솔루션이다. 오프로딩 방법 중, LIPA/SIPTO 오프로딩에서는 애플리케이션의 QoS 요구사항을 만족하면서 트래픽을 오프로딩할 수 있다. 또한, SNS로 인한 많은 트래픽때문에 social context를 이용한 트래픽 오프로딩이 필요하다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서는 social context를 이용하여 트래픽을 오프로딩하는 LIPA/SIPTO 오프로딩 알고리즘을 제안한다. 먼저, 애플리케이션 인기도를 social context로 이용하여 애플리케이션 선택확률을 정의한다. 그 다음, effective data rate 관점에서 소형셀 사용자의 QoS를 최대화하는 최적의 오프로딩 weighting factor를 찾는다. 마지막으로, 애플리케이션 선택확률과 오프로딩 weighting factor를 기반으로 각 애플리케이션의 오프로딩 비율을 정한다. 성능분석 결과, 제안한 알고리즘의 오프로딩 비율이 기존 알고리즘의 약 46%임에도 불구하고, 제안한 알고리즘의 effective data rate achievement ratio 값이 기존 알고리즘과 비슷한 것을 확인하였다.
