The priority of software maintenance researches has been increasing, since the lengths of software lifecycle are more increasing. Measuring couplings among software entities provides a good quantitative source for analyzing source code and point out candidate refactoring positions. Logical-coupling measures how strongly two software entities are related with each other from the evolutionary point of view. The researches on logical-coupling have been focusing on improving the correctness and explaining more aspects that are hiding by measuring logical-coupling among finer-grained entities. However, existing researches on logical-coupling fails to consider characteristics of developers and projects reflected in transactions. The research proposes a logical-coupling measurement method based on transaction time, size and expertise of developer to improve the correctness by considering characteristics of developers and projects reflected in transactions. The method has been validated by applying it to three open-source projects.

The purpose of this study is to grasp the type of network activity and corporate competency based on network theory and to compare and analyze the relationship between these characteristics and business performance. The results showed that the frequency, importance, and reliability of CEO's had a positive (+) effect on business performance, and the mediating effect of corporate competency (industrial information competency, opportunity capture competency, strategic flexibility, and transaction cost reduction) appeared. This study tried to measure business performance by including corporate competency as a direct performance variable of CEO's network activity and found that it is desirable to focus on interacting with the most important network sources and to make efforts to strengthen the qualitative characteristics of network activities rather than expanding the scope of the network in order to improve the performance of CEO's Network Activity.

In this paper, we investigate industrial product intermediary's transformation strategy by exploiting advantages afforded by web based information technologies. Our motivation for this research stems from exploring intermediary's responding strategy to cope with supplier's threatening to disintermediation. From transaction cost perspective, internet can induce both the vertical quasi-integration (electronic hierarchy) and outsourcing (electronic market). Our rationale on directing one of these bi-directional movements is specified on intermediary's value adding on the supply chain. As such, we investigated supply chain performance, IT effects on customer's requirement of channel functions, and channel power structure. Propositions to suggest contingent e-transforming strategic alternatives are logically derived from dyadic nature of supply chain characteristics such as efficiency versus customer services, and supplier dominant versus easy replaceability of suppliers. The contingent e-transformation framework developed from intermediary's perspective is reviewed through longitudinal industry case analysis. Implications from the industry case analysis give us insights for the effectiveness of the framework to combine supply chain characteristics with intermediary's e-transformation.

Nowadays, cutting-edge information communication technology is the genuine core technology of the fourth Industrial Revolution and is still making great progress rapidly among various technology fields. The biggest issue in ICT fields is the machine learning based Artificial Intelligence applications using big data in cloud computing environment on the basis of wireless network, and also the technology fields of autonomous control applications such as Autonomous Car or Mobile Robot. Since value of the high-tech ICT technology depends on the surrounded environmental factors and is very flexible, the precise technology valuation method is urgently needed in order to get successful technology transfer, transaction and commercialization. In this research, we analyze the characteristics of the high-tech ICT technology and the main factors in technology transfer or commercialization process, and propose the precise technology valuation method that reflects the characteristics of the ICT technology through phased analysis of the existing technology valuationmodel.

This paper deals with two kinds of novel shape switched reluctance motors (SRM) with magnetic barriers in order to improve operating performances of prototype. The magnetic barriers make rotor poles more saturated, and consequently inductance profiles are distorted. The changed inductance affects input current shape and eventually torque characteristics. In order to analyze the complicated flux pattern of the SRM with magnetic barriers and its terminal characteristics simultaneously, coupled field circuit modeling method is used. The finite element method is used to model the nonlinear magnetic field, and coupled to the circuit model of the SRM overall system. After experimental results are presented to prove the accuracy of the method, the several analysis results are compared, and the improved rotor shape is presented.

We conducted this study to identify the composition factors for consumers' selection attributes of accommodation applications and to identify the differences in the selection attributes perception of accommodation applications based on demographic characteristics and use status. According to the study, 6 factors were derived as the components of the selectivity of accommodation application and were named convenience, interactivity, economic efficiency, transaction reliability, product reliability and informativeness. And the respondents differed in their selection attributes perception of the accommodation application they used. In particular, it was found that the highest perception of informativeness and interactivity, and the lowest perception of product reliability. Finally, there were differences in the selection attributes perception of the accommodation application they used by demographic characteristics and use status. Based on the results of this study, we should strive to derive the effective marketing strategy needed for travel industry-related companies.

The growing popularity of mobile application has led to researchers and practitioners needing to understand users' mobile application download behaviors. Using large-scale transaction data obtained from a leading Korean telecommunications company, we empirically explore how application download rank, which appears to users when they decide to download a new application, affects their extended mobile application download. This terminology refers to downloading an additional application in the same category as those that they have already downloaded. We also consider IT characteristics, user characteristics, and application type that might be associated with the extended application download. The analysis generates the following result. Overall, a higher rank of a new application encourages the extended application download, but the linear relationship between the rank and the extended application download disappears when critical rank points are incorporated into the model. Further, no quadratic effect of rank is found in the extended application download. Based on the results, we suggest theoretical and managerial implications.

Biometric technologies have become widely available in many different fields. However, biometric technologies using existing physical features such as fingerprints, facial features, irises, and veins must consider forgery and alterations targeting them through fraudulent physical characteristics such as fake fingerprints. Thus, a trend toward next-generation biometric technologies using behavioral biometrics of a living person, such as bio-signals and walking characteristics, has emerged. Accordingly, in this study, we developed a bio-signal authentication algorithm using electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, which are the most uniquely identifiable form of bio-signal available. When using ECG signals with our system, the personal identification and authentication accuracy are approximately 90% during a state of rest. When using fingerprints alone, the equal error rate (EER) is 0.243%; however, when fusing the scores of both the ECG signal and fingerprints, the EER decreases to 0.113% on average. In addition, as a function of detecting a presentation attack on a mobile phone, a method for rejecting a transaction when a fake fingerprint is applied was successfully implemented.

As the structure of the piezoelectric bimorph cantilever becomes increasingly more complicated, a more accurate and efficient analysis of piezoelectric media is needed. In this paper, the piezoelectric transducer is analyzed by using the three-dimensional finite element method. The validity of the three-dimensional finite element routine is confirmed by comparing the experimental result. The resonance characteristics, such as resonance frequency and anti-resonance frequency, of the piezoelectric cantilever are calculated by the experimentally verified three dimensional finite element method. Subsequently, the characteristics, such as mechanical displacement and impedance, are calculated at the resonance frequency. Besides, to design the piezoelectric bimorph cantilever shape that maximizes displacement at the tip, the ES (Evolution Strategy) algorithm is applied. Finally, optimal design for the fan of the piezoelectric cantilever is fulfilled to obtain maximum displacement at the tip. From these results, the application potentiality of the piezoelectric bimorph cantilever fan is identified.
