The number of youth smartphone users has been increasing, and they use smartphone applications to satisfy their various types of information needs. Nevertheless, few researchers have addressed youth information behavior on applications. In this study, the author examined the application use behavior of youth in response to their work- and everyday life- information needs. The author collected 114 completed questionnaires from students enrolled in a middle school and a high school. The survey results show that participants' usage and perception of smartphone applications were high, and they were using information, entertainment, and communication applications to meet their information needs. In particular, their preference for application use differed by the type of information needs. Also, participants were considering cost, easiness, privacy policy, review, information quality, providers, interface design, and recommendation to choose applications. This study confirms the role of smartphone applications as an influential information source, and it also provides useful implications for educators and for application developers.

In the field of VLBI, If the quality of the connected network between the VLBI station and the correlation center is ensured, the existing inefficiency of repeatedly storing the observation data in each station and the correlation center can be overcome. In other words, the data center can be unified with the correlation center where data analysis is performed, which can improve data processing speed and productivity. In this paper, we design a massive VLBI data system that directly transmits and stores the observation data stream obtained from the VLBI station to the correlation center via the high - speed network KREONET. Based on this system, VLBI test observations confirmed that the observation data was stored perfectly in the recording system of the correlation center without a single packet loss.

The main objective of this research is to build a behavior prediction model of gameplay for MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) game using the GOMS analysis method. GOMS analysis is an observational approach to HCI(Human Computer Interaction) to model and predict behaviors of a human operator in a highly interactive task. In this research, a pilot experiment was previously conducted with three skilled gamers. The gamers were provided with the goals and operators through the user's guide book, and they found methods and selection rules while being observed. Based on the results obtained from the pilot study, this research was expanded and the model was further tested with 30 subjects (game experts). The new outcomes revealed that the relevance of GOMS analysis for predicting selection rules is 96.25% according to the degree of abstraction and 77.35% based on the degree of complexity. This research will provide game designers with a new testing mechanism in the early development stages, in order to improve the quality of the game product.

We propose the efficient channel coding method combined with a 2.4kbps speech coder. The code rate of a channel coder is given by 1/2 and 1/2 rate convolutional coder is obtained from the punctured convolutional coder with rate of 1/3. The punctured convolutional coder is used for a variable rate allocation. The puncturing method according to the importance of the output data of the source encoder is applied for the convolutional coder. The importance of output data is analyzed by evaluating the bit error sensitivity of speech parameter bits. The performance of proposed coder is analyzed and simulated in Rayleigh fading channel and AWGN channel. The experimental results with 2.4kbps EHSX coder show that the variable rate channel coding method is superior to non-variable channel coding method from the subjective speech quality.

In order to optimize sterilization conditions of retort pouched curry sauce, sterilization processes for eighteen conditions by varying temperature, time and method were conducted through $3^{2}{\times}2^{1}$ experimental factorial design. Quality evaluations before and after sterilization included measurements of vitamin (niacin) retention, pH and color differences, and organoleptic test(taste, color and viscosity). $F_{o}$ values were also measured at each condition. Product qualities were mainly affected by sterilization temperature and time, whereas sterilization method had no significant effect. Effect of sterilization time on product qualities was higher than that of sterilization temperature. From the response surface analysis, an optimum range of sterilization condition simultaneously satisfying desired specifications was determined to be $123.5^{\circ}C$, 21.5 min to $127.5^{\circ}C$, 17.0 min. In this range, the sterility($F_{o}$ value) at a cold point during sterilization was approximately 15.0 min.

Software product-lines is the software development paradigm to attain the rapid development of quality applications by customizing the reconfigurable components and composing them based on predefined software architectures. Recently various methodologies for the component-based product lines are proposed, but these don't provide the specific implementation techniques of the components in terms of variability resolution mechanism. In other hand, the several approaches to implement the component supporting the variabilities resolution are developed, but these don't define the systematic analysis and design method considering the variabilities from the initial phase. This paper proposes the integration of PLUS, the one of product line methodologies extending UML modeling, and component code generation technique in order to increase the efficiency of producing the specific product in the software product lines. In this paper, the component has the hierarchical architecture consisting of the implementation elements, and each implementation elements are implemented as XSLT scripts. The codes of the components are generated from the feature selection. Using the microwave oven product lines as case study, the development process for the reconfigurable components supporting the automatic variability resolution is described.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of the psychiatric nursing simulation practicum, which was developed for the therapeutic relationship forming and communication, psychiatric nursing assessment training utilizing simulated patients, on self-directed learning, learning self-efficacy and learning satisfaction. As a one group pre-test and post-test design, this test conducted 8 hours of intervention on 119 senior nursing students as study subjects. As a result, self-directed learning and learning self-efficacy were seen to be significantly improved after the program compared to before the program, and these variables displayed a moderate-level static correlation with learning satisfaction. These results can be deemed representative of the fact that, concerning psychiatric nursing practicum, a simulation teaching using simulated patients is effective. The results of this study are expected to contribute to improving field-centered psychiatric nursing practicum and the quality of psychiatric clinical work.

Mobile game apps, which are popular in various mobile devices, tend to be power-hungry and rapidly drain the device's battery. Since a long battery lifetime is a key design requirement of mobile devices, reducing the power consumption of mobile game apps has become an important research topic. In this paper, we investigate the power consumption characteristics of popular mobile games with multiple threads, focusing on the inter-thread. From our power measurement study of popular mobile game apps, we observed that some of these apps have abnormally high-load threads that barely affect the user's gaming experience, despite the high energy consumption. In order to reduce the wasted power from these abnormal threads, we propose a novel technique that detects such abnormal threads during run time and reduces their power consumption without degrading user experience. Our experimental results on an Android smartphone show that the proposed technique can reduce the energy consumption of mobile game apps by up to 58% without any negative impact on the user's gaming experience.

Domestic standards for data broadcasting differ in the fact that satellite broadcasting chose MHP, cable OCAP, satellite ACAP, therefore making reuse of data contents impossible due to the differences. To resolve this problem, this study designed and implemented independent middleware class library for developing data broadcasting contents. To define class library which could bridge between applications and different middleware, standard library developing methods were used; and analysis of procedural application of each middleware was carried out. Based upon the analysis, classes with embedded transform and handle modules were defined to be linked to libraries of each middleware; and to verify the implemented class library, test contents were created to be compared to the existing contents. This kind of contents development by independent middleware class library allows for reuse of data contents easier, and develops an environment for higher quality of contents by reducing the efforts needed to learn each middleware for the developers.
