This research was conducted to find out determinant variables which can influence the degree of flow in smoking simulation game. We set up flow experience as a dependent variable. Several factors including empathy, health concern, and brainwave(${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$) EEG(Electroencephalogram) as a physiological indicator, which was expected to affect flow, were set up as independent variables to perform regression analysis. As a result, empathy, health consciousness, and ${\beta}$ wave had positive influences on flow in smoking simulation game but ${\alpha}$ wave had negative effect. This research empirically analyzed users' experience and neurophysiological changes which can influence on flow in serious game and contributed to theoretical and methodological development in health-related game research.

For fast recovery from physical discomfort and getting back to normal life, many rehabilitation treatments have been performed on patients. Computer games have been one of such treatments that are able to apply to patients effectively. However, because most of such games are locational-based, it is hard to figure out exact medical condition of patients that provide more information to medical doctors. This paper presents a rehabilitation game for patients, which is locational-based as well as rotational-based, who are having external wound or aging diseases by using electromyography signal and gyroscopic sensors. Through this game, we are able to understand how to lead the patients to involve in physical therapy more and how to obtain exact conditions of patients from the games. From several experiments, we found out that our games are able to make patients to increase their physical activity and possibility.

Recently, with various developments made to smart-phones and other digital devices in the IoT environment, modern people tend to pursue comfort in their own lifestyles. These environment has helped us to obtain any information or data in despite of location and time. But it has caused them to be overly reliant on digital devices in doing any kind of daily work, trusting the digital devices more than oneself. As a result of this over reliance, modern people's memorizing and calculating ability have deteriorated critically. This symptom is known as the Digital Dementia. In this paper, we study the phenomenon of digital dementia caused by smart-phones, and we suggest a method of developing "memorize the phone number" game applications in IoT environment to the problem of digital dementia. Test results show that, through the use of application, not only the users were able to have fun memorizing the numbers, but also, to show improvement in their memorizing ability. Thus, we expect that the application suggested above will help in preventing digital dementia and maintain brain health.

Though the issue on the integration of maritime transport market in Northeast Asia has a long history, there has never been any notable progress. Especially the lack of country-wise analysis on the barriers of market integration appears as a serious problem for more concrete discussion and the design of the roadmap for market integration. This study analyzes the maritime market of each country in the aspect of infrastructure provision, the development of the industry, change of institutions, and network connectivity and compare the competitiveness of 3 countries in the Northeast maritime market. Furthermore this study analyzes the barriers for market integration on the basis of bilateral relation, i.e. Korea-Japan, Korea-China and Japan-Korea. Based on these analyses, this study finds out the fact that the most serious barrier for market integration among 3 countries is the egocentric policies for the protection of industries in each country rather than any other institutional or physical barriers. In conclusion, this study argues that 3 countries should try to find out a third policy alternative which can make 3 countries enjoy the win-win game, such as route integration among 3 countries and joint venture for the liners operated in the region.

As the aging population has increased, the silver generation is getting to account for the considerable percent of economic activities and becomes the main body of production and consumption. Although the economic activity of silver generation is increased, the development of silver contents for the leisure activities is still not revitalized. The serious silver contents and the easy-to-use interface are very important because the silver generation is relatively weaker than young people in perception, studying, and exercise, and is fragile in mobility and vitality. This paper suggests methods to develop sensory bicycle, gate ball, and mole game contents haying lower body exercise effects for the silver generation to utilize leisure and maintain health. Along with fun as games, functional design factors suitable to the cognitive ability and bodily activity ability of the silver generation were considered and through sensory intefaces that are easy for the silver generation to use and customized progressing methods complying with individual characteristics, it was attempted to induce continued interests and lower body exercise effects.
