  • Positron Emission Tomography(PET) is nuclear medical tests which is a combination of several compounds with a radioactive isotope that can be injected into body to quantitatively measure the metabolic rate (in the body). Especially, Phenomena that increase (sing) glucose metabolism in cancer tissue using the $^{18}F$-FDG (Fluorodeoxyglucose) is utilized widely in cancer diagnosis. And then, Numerous studies have been reported that incidence seems high availability even in the modern diagnosis of dementia and Parkinson's (disease) in brain disease. When using a dynamic PET iamge including the time information in the static information that is provided for the diagnosis many can increase the accuracy of diagnosis. For this reason, clinical researchers getting great attention but, it is the lack of tools to conduct research. And, it interfered complex mathematical algorithm and programming skills for activation of research. In this study, in order to easy to use and enable research dPET, we developed the software based graphic user interface(GUI). In the future, by many clinical researcher using DIA-Tool is expected to be of great help to dPET research.

  • Role Based Access Control(RBAC) reduces the cost of administering access control policies as well as making the process less error-prone. Administration tool is most important component in the concept of RBAC. The administration tool for the RBAC security system must be maintain the integrity of user-role and role-role relationships in the RBAC Database. Therefor, it is required set functions, properties defining integrity of database. When it will be designed security systems which is applying RBAC policy on the Linux(server system environments, this paper defines integrity of database for user-role and role-role relationships, and we propose formal specification of operation in order to manage these relationships. The proposed formal specification leads to the consistency requirements for the RBAC database which are defined as a set of relationship. Also, this paper can easily derive the implementation of the RBAC administration tool by formal specification of operations. It leads us tn the minimal set for a more efficiently implementation of administration tool.

  • According to the improvement in quality of life and the progress of user's taste in this modern society, people great deal with the symbolic meaning of product which express user's self-concept(image). Therefore, this kind of information of users' image is needed to deal importantly for the product design development processes, particularly, the early stage of design development such as the concept design development stage. But, there is not much analysis tools which deal qualitative data of users for the design development. From this reason, the supply of information of user's image through the development of verbal analysis method of user's self-concept will help a designer. For this purpose, this study not only developed the twenty-one factors in order to evaluate user's self-concept, but also suggested that the new approach method that can classify user's group within the same characteristic of user's image using the twenty-one developed verbal measurement items with tools of statistical analysis for the design direction of product. The developed this verbal analysis tool was testified through the case study in this research work.

  • Due to people's internet use growth and proliferation of ubiquitous technology, the internet addiction is becoming a social issue. However, the current adults' self-diagnosis measure about internet addiction, the K-scale, is a normal diagnostic method, which it does not consider user characteristics. In this research, we will propose a new internet addiction diagnostic method based on users' non-duty internet activities by using some questionnaire items to collect users' basic internet patterns used on duty related or non-duty related web sites. Since we simply ask for the basic internet usage pattern to each user who does not like to check frankly questionnaire items in the K-scale, the proposed method can find some hidden internet addicts compared to the K-scale with the SPSS statistical analysis tool.

  • With the proliferation of activity-tracking devices and other smart tools, more users leverage these personal informatics technologies to track their physical and fitness-related activities. The research on the benefits (and limitations) of these devices tends to focus on the use of a single tool, leaving out the interactions among multiple technologies, and how these interactions influence the way users perceive their affordances. Building from an ecological perspective, I extend this research by providing insight into the competitive and complementary relationships among activity tracking devices and other fitness-related and personal informatics technologies within the device ecology of technologies around the user. The affordances of these devices are therefore not enacted in isolation but are relational to understanding of other technological options and differing personal preferences and goals of the user.

  • A smart phone has an error if we design games on it because smart phone should be able to have input and output simultaneously through the screen. Using the existing layout of the game as a base for research, the layout was divided to four categories that are information area, informational appearance area, operation area and inutility area. Given the research results, we developed an authoring tool to design games for smart phones. Moreover, we applied the authoring tool to develop games and effectively reduce the developing time.

  • Today, the advance of a community tool such as a SNS enables users to easily share information each other and quickly deliver various opinions to suppliers. The suppliers are trying to create new value through co-creation strategies in order to satisfy rapidly and variously changing user's needs. User-participation-based idea platforms are emerging as a open innovation space that can provide user participation and interaction between suppliers and users. However, although each idea platform has specific advantages in each stage of a development process, this development process is not generalized as one complete, integrated development process. Thus, the development of an effectively integrated process, which includes advantages in each stage of the process, is needed. This research aims to analysis the characteristics of idea platforms based on the classification of idea platforms as a basic study for proposing a new development processes of them. This research will contribute to the guideline for developing a new user-participation-based idea platform.
