  • Tourism marketing begins with understanding tourists' needs. However, understanding tourists' needs should be expressed by specific utility values rather than simple preference order for the purpose of developing tourism marketing strategies. This study aims at identifying tourist's stated preference of vacation destination attributes by using the conjoint analysis. In addition, this study is purposed to define relationship between attitude and preference, and to suggest implications to tourism marketing strategies. It was found that stated preference to such attributes as 'quality of accommondation', 'recreation activities' and 'accessibility' among the attitude segments was significantly different but stated preferences to diverse profiles made of these three attributes showed significant differences only in such attributes as 'quality of accommodation' and 'recreation activities'. This results make it possible to identify the function of preference to destination attributes in the vacation destination choice decision. It also embodies the relationship between tourist's attitude and vacation destination attributes.

  • The most effective method to improve information system capabilities is to enable instant access to several relational database sources and transform data with a logical structure into multiple target relational databases. There are numerous data transformation tools available; however, they typically contain fixed procedures that cannot be changed by the user, making it impossible to fulfill the near-real-time data transformation requirements. Furthermore, some tools cannot build object references or alter attribute constraints. There are various situations in which tool changes in data type cause conflicts and difficulties with data quality while transforming between the two systems. The R-programming language was extensively used throughout this study, and several different relational database structures were utilized to complete the proposed study. Experiments showed that the developed study can improve the performance of information systems by interacting with and exchanging data with various relational databases. The study addresses data quality issues, particularly the completeness and integrity dimensions of the data transformation processes.

  • 소프트웨어 품질을 정의하기 위한 여러 가지 소프트웨어 품질 모형(SQM : Software Quality Model)이 개발되어 왔다. 이 모형들은 두 가지 목적을 가진다. 한 가지는 소프트웨어 품질 측정이고, 또 다른 목적은 개발 프로세스에서의 소프트웨어 품질 제어이다. 국제 표준인 ISO/IEC 9126은 소프트웨어 측정을 위한 소프트웨어 품질 모형을 제시하였다. ISO/IEC 9126의 품질 모형은 사용 관점에서 소프트웨어 품질을 정의한 모형이다. 이 모형은 개발 프로세스에서의 품질 제어를 하는 측면에서는 불완전한 모형이다. 소프트웨어의 품질이 프로세스 내에서 어떻게 만들어지는지 볼 수 없는 모형이기 때문이다. 따라서, 개발 관점에서의 소프트웨어 품질 모형이 필요하다.본 논문에서는 사용 관점인 ISO/IEC 9126 품질 모형을 기반으로 하여 개발 관점에서의 소프트웨어 품질 모형을 제안한다. 이 모형은 ISO/IEC 9126과 같이 하위 품질 요소가 중복되지 않는 계층적 품질 모형이면서, 개발 프로세스 내에서 제어 가능한 제품 특성에 기반을 둔 개발 관점의 소프트웨어 품질 모형이다. 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어 품질 모형 구축 시, 품질 속성간의 선후조건관계를 설정하여 품질 속성간 중복되었던 제품 특성을 한 품질 속성 내 귀속시킨다. 품질 속성 별 제품 특성을 기반으로, 프로세스 내에서 제품 특성을 측정하는 메트릭스를 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 품질 모형과 ISO/IEC 9126을 비롯한 기존 품질 모형과 비교 분석한다.Abstract Several SQMs(Software Quality Models) have been developed to define a software quality. These models have two goals. One is to measure a software quality, the other is to control a software quality. The SQM of ISO/IEC 9126 is defined from the user's viewpoint. This model is an incomplete model in controlling a software quality in the development process. Since this model cannot show how to build a high quality software, the SQM of the developer's view is needed.We suggest the SQM of the developer's view. This model is a completely hierarchical model and is based on product properties. For this model, we define implicative relations among quality attributes for 1:m relations of quality attributes and product properties. So, we solve the problem of a quality attribute overlapping with other quality attributes. We suggest metrics based on our SQMs. Further, we evaluate our SQM by comparing our SQM with other SQMs.

  • This study explored the attributes of the fashion specialty store according to the level of fashion involvement. Data were obtained from 262 female college student. For analysis of the data, conjoint analysis, T-test, factor analysis were employed. The results of this study were as follows; 1) Fashion involvement could be used as an importants segment variable and that attitude toward store attributes differed by the level of fashion involvement. 2) The high fashion involvement group preferred a downtown area in location, high fashion in fashionability and fashion couture quality in terms of product quality. On the other hand, the low involvement group preferred a residential area in location, basic staple goods in fashionability, and easy to care clothes in terms of product quality. 3) Five store attributes were grouped into two attribute groups: merchandising function (including product quality, assortment and fashionability) and store atmospheric function (including location and atmosphere). The results showed that the high fashion involvement group placed more importance on the store atmospheric function rather than the merchadising function. For the low fashion involvement group, the importance was reversed.

  • Combining similar data provides larger data sets through conducting test for homogeneity of several samples under various production processes or samples from different LOTs. The test for homogeneity has been applied to either variable or attribute data, and for variable data set physical homogeneity has been tested without consideration of the specification to the set. This paper proposes a method for test of homogeneity based on quality level through using both variable data and the specification. Quality-based test for homogeneity as a way of combining data is implemented by test for coefficient of variation in the proposed method. The method was verified through the application to the data set in open literature. And possibility to combine performance data for various types of thermal battery was discussed in order to estimate operation reliability.

  • Importance-Performance Analysis(IPA) is a well-known methodology to find the area for improvement. However, the IPA uses different strategies depending on an attribute falls in either 'Concentrate', 'Keep up', 'Possible overkill', or Low priority' quadrant. Problems can occur when attributes locate near the demarcation lines. To solve this problem of IPA, I suggest a modified importance-satisfaction analysis which integrates the Slack(1994)'s diagonal approach and Kano's ASC(Jang et al., 2012) into Yang(2003)'s Importance-Satisfaction model. For this, I investigated 21 smartphone's quality attributes, which adopted from Song and Park(2012)'s study, and conducted a survey of 280 university students for the results of Kano' model and the importance and satisfaction of the quality attributes. The results show that the proposed model enables the business managers to prioritize the quality attributes for improvement through the interpretation on the continuous diagonal line using the Kano's questionnaire only, without acquiring any additional survey for importance of attributes. Accordingly, it is expected that the newly proposed method will diminish the limitation of the existing IPA. In addition, to test the validity of the ASC, this study conducts a comparative analysis between the Kano's ASC and Tontini(2007)'s method to determine the relative importance of quality attributes.

  • This study investigated the quality and antioxidative properties of a Korean steamed-rice cake, Sulgidduk added with Prunus yedoensis Matsumura extract, and vitamin C. Sulgidduk was prepared by adding Prunus yedoensis Matsumura extract at 0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3% of rice powder. Antioxidant activities were measured by the scavenging activities of DPPH radicals, $ABTS^+$ radicals, $superoxide^-$ radicals and the reducing power. For analyzing quality characteristics, proximate composition, color, texture profile analysis, and sensory evaluations were measured. The antioxidative effect of the Sulgidduk significantly increased as the addition level increased, compared to the original Sulgidduk (p<0.001). As the content of Prunus yedoensis Matsumura extracts increased, L-values significantly decreased while the a-value and b-value significantly increased (p<0.001). For the texture profile analysis, the control group had a significantly higher value for hardness as compared to the Prunus yedoensis Matsumura extract-added groups (p<0.05). Springiness, chewiness and adhesiveness were not significantly different among the samples. In the sensory evaluation, the samples containing 0.1% and 0.2% Prunus yedoensis Matsumura extracts obtained better results in attribute. From these results, we suggest that Prunus yedoensis Matsumura is a good ingredient for increasing the consumer acceptability and the functionality of Sulgidduk.

  • The purpose of this study was to find out the impact of a selection attribute on customer satisfaction and customer loyalty in the coffee house industry. Through the preceding research, author chose coffee quality, price value, interior and employee service quality as selection attributes as well as customer loyalty as intent to recommend and to revisit. For this study, data were collected from the pedestrians around Kangnam, Samsung, Seoul national university of education subway stations from July 12 to August 4, 2005. Questionnaires were distributed and, of 314 papers, only 300 were suitable for the statistical analysis. The findings of the research were as follows: First, four selections had an effect on customer satisfaction which influenced customer loyalty. Coffee quality was the most influential variable among the selection attributes, and came price value, and interior and employee service quality in that order. Second, intent to revisit was influenced directly by not only customer satisfaction but also intent to recommend. However, this study had such limitations that data used in this study were limited to relatively narrow area and four attributes were not enough to explain all situations of choosing coffee houses. Consequently, further studies are needed to include more variables and coffee houses' brand images.

  • Purpose - This study attempted to identify the value promotion clues that may operate as a consumer's motive, by shedding new light on consumer value and by reconstructing each variable analyzed through the means-end chain (MEC) theory. Research design, data, and methodology - In this study, 202 copies of effective questionnaires using the data of Yang and Ju (2012) were subjected to correlation, regression, and SEM. Results - All store selection attributes were verified as having a positive influence on the relationship quality. Although the store selection attributes were verified as exerting a positive influence on the relationship quality, according to the verification result of the mediating effect, consumer value was verified to be influenced only by the relationship quality instead of by the store selection attributes. Conclusion - As a result of path analysis on the proposed model after modification, it was verified that only product factor had a statistically significant positive influence and that social value was completely mediating between relationship quality and emotional value. It may be highlighted that the MEC theory concept would be applicable to the cause-and-effect relationship model.
