This paper shows an analysis of the effectiveness of internet games shutdown policy being conducted in Korea and focusing on a verification of the effects of the selective games shutdown and the compulsory games shutdown running for the prevention of adolescents' addiction by korea government (Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Ministry of Gender Equality and Family). According to the results, It is difficult to clearly prove the causal relations between internet games and addiction. Also the internet games shutdown policy is not only the most effective means for preventing internet games addiction. On the basis of it, this paper proposes effective policy measures to prevent the internet game addiction of adolescents.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new concept associated with the future Internet, and it has recently become a popular concept to build a dynamic, global network infrastructure. However, the deployment of IoT creates difficulties in satisfying different Quality of Service (QoS) requirements and achieving rapid service composition and deployment. In this paper, we propose a new QoS control scheme for IoT systems. The Markov game model is applied in our proposed scheme to effectively allocate IoT resources while maximizing system performance. The results of our study are validated by running a simulation to prove that the proposed scheme can promptly evaluate current IoT situations and select the best action. Thus, our scheme approximates the optimum system performance.

Most of the existing game-based education programmes for lower grades are simple block-coding studies, and there is a lack of examples of programming-intensive classes. In this study, we implemented a Minecraft-based Python coding fundamentals class for 3 classes at a local elementary school during a 2-week school holiday. The learning programme was reorganised from the standard learning programme on the official website, such as building quests through LAN-PARTY and self-scripting in-game, to improve class interest and motivation. In addition, we analysed the satisfaction and preferences of the class topics through a survey, and obtained meaningful results for future educational program development. This study is significant as a basic research for the design and development of game-based educational programmes for all age groups.

This paper deals with the design and implementation of a typing game especially for the disabled people such as children, the elderly, and the handicapped persons on hands. In order to increase the typing capability of such users the game is designed to increase the score whenever they correctly enter the words that appear randomly on the screen. Moreover it is devised to arose the interest by making them follow closer to bugs and insects running ahead when they type correctly many words as possible within a given time limit to eliminate the bugs at the collision; otherwise the distance becomes farther when they enter misspelled words. This functionality can develop the intellectual strength of the users. This typing game helps the disabled increase their typing capability, memorize the character key position, and feel emotionally good with excitement.

윈도우 시스템은 90년대 이후로 지속적으로 사용되어진 개인용 컴퓨터의 운영체제로 그래픽 사용자 인터페이스와 멀티프로세싱 기능 등을 제공한다. 최근 배포되어지는 8.1 버전은 기존의 윈도우 시스템과 비교하여 다양한 특징을 가지고 있지만 윈도우 스토어는 네트워크를 이용하여 설치할 수 있는 다양한 응용 프로그램을 제공한다. 그러나 현재 윈도우 스토어에는 게임을 위한 응용 프로그램은 거의 제공되지 않고 있다. 이 논문에서는 사용자가 간편하게 설치하여 실행시킬 수 있는 미로탈출 앱을 설계한다. 제안한 앱은 저용량으로 윈도우 스토어에서 다운로드해서 사용자가 직관적으로 미로탈출 게임을 할 수 있도록 한다. 이를 위하여 HTML5와 자바스크립트를 이용하여 개발한다.

While a game market has been growing consistently world widely, a market of arcade or video game has been detained. In this stagnation, the latest one in 2015, "Super Mario Maker" of Mario series that's been running in good for 30 years, the notable sale and growth of which are extraordinary. As for a study in customizing, a literature of game customizing and studies that are foregone were mostly handling contents about a game character. In the survey that's done in this thesis about knowledge and needs in customizinge game users have, it was shown they want to customize sides of a rule and a character. I analyzed what the main factors are in this game which uses a main concept of customizing and the reason for high profits and popularity. As a result of the analysis, four features, possibility to customize a game rule, share data among users, collaboration in marketing with NFC figure characters, offering updates with sustained and new customizing features were found out. I am certain a game customizing will be helping to meet users and be used for various industries without limit of existing character.

현재 스마트 기기가 상용화된 우리 사회에서는 대부분의 사람들이 PC를 접하는 시간 보다 스마트 기기를 접하는 시간이 늘어가고 있으며 그것은 게임 산업 측면에서도 같은 추세를 보이고 있다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 모바일 환경에서 스마트 기기만의 특성을 살려 게임을 개발하였으며, 그 중에서도 자이로 센서를 활용하여 캐릭터의 움직임을 구현하였다. 본 논문에서는 사용자들이 재미있고 쉽게 플레이 할 수 있는 어드벤처 3D 러닝게임을 기획, 설계 구현한 것에 대하여 다루었다.

Most games based on PCs or consoles at present show vivid special effects and brilliance sceneries. However, the other games running on mobiles and portable devices can not show magnificent scenes because of low hardware specifications such as slow CPU, old graphics card and battery capacity. These games relatively prefer light and casual contents that do not need tremendous calculation. It is very important to keep minimum of game graphics quality in those games. Thus this research presents that the new possibility of variable indexed color palettes to overcome the low hardware capacities.

Large amount of data is being generated in gaming servers due to the increase in the number of users and the variety of game services being provided. In particular, load balancing schemes for gaming servers are crucial consideration. The existing literature proposes algorithms that distribute loads in servers by mostly concentrating on load balancing and cooperative offloading. However, many proposed schemes impose heavy restrictions and assumptions, and such a limited service classification method is not enough to satisfy the wide range of service requirements. We propose a load balancing agent that combines the dynamic allocation programming method, a type of greedy algorithm, and proximal policy optimization, a reinforcement learning. Also, we compare performances of our proposed scheme and those of a scheme from previous literature, ProGreGA, by running a simulation.

본 논문에서는 1인칭 시점으로 가상현실기술을 사용한 게임 콘텐츠를 개발하였고, 기존에 스마트폰에서 즐겨했던 템플런이라는 장애물 회피하며 달리는 게임을 모티브로 하여 가상현실기술로 구현하였다. 게임에서 카메라의 시점을 캐릭터에 장착하여 몰입감을 높이고 다양한 아이템 이벤트를 구현하여 게임의 난이도와 흥미요소를 높였다. 다양한 코스가 틀에 정해져 있지않은 무작위로 코스가 생성되어 기존에 장애물 회피하여 달리는 게임은 코스가 정해져 있어 게임의 난이도가 문제 이었다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 코스와 아이템을 무작위로 생성하여 암기위주의 게임이 아닌 몰입도가 늘어난 장애물 회피하며 달리는 게임을 즐길수 있다.
