근래에 들어 사용자를 중심으로 한 제품개발 전개 활발히 진행되어지고 있다. 사용자 중심의 디자인 중에서도 UI(User-Interface '이하 GUI')분야는 컴퓨터의 발전 속도에 의해 급속히 전파되고 있다. 하지만 디자인분야의 Ul는 GUI(Graphical User-Interface '이하GUI')분야에만 기형적 발전이 이루어지고 있는 것이다. (중략)

The concept of Smart home is receiving a huge attention as a future living environment because of its advantages for elderly and disabled to maintain their quality of life. Smart home is a place equipped with integration of technology and services and closely intertwined with occupant's lifestyle. Therefore it is critical to consider the user's actual needs for ensuring satisfaction. However despite growing researches on user values for smart home, there have been few studies clearly categorizing smart home service and stating user values depending on characteristics of service. Thus, the aim of this research is to classify smart home services on user's perspective, and reveal user values for each smart home services. Through the in-depth literature review, we elicited technology-related user values and service-related user values, and state classification for smart home service. Also the relationship between user values and each smart home services were revealed. The results of this research should help to reflect user's actual needs for designing smart home services.

Stock information applications allow users to look up and find current stock information whenever and wherever. This study researched what kind of user experience the finance experts get when using these applications and what they suggest. The research was conducted through an in-depth interview of 8 finance experts, who worked minimum of three years, and used both Kakao Stock and JeungGwon Tong, the most used stock information applications, for a minimum duration of six months. The results show the user experience of Kakao Stock rated a bit higher than JeungGwon Tong. Since the objective of such applications are to show stock informations, the experts all rated the pleasurable and meaningful aspects rather low. They suggested, the developers should provide a more advanced and accurate information. They also suggested user interest recognized content be presented along with more convenient user interface to elevate usability. Hopefully, this study becomes a base to further study of user experience of various on and offline stock information services and they become a reference to develop a service with great user experience.

The purpose of this study is to present measures to enhance non-face-to-face communication platform services by measuring the user experience elements of major videoconferencing platforms in the non-face-to-face era. As a method of research, the platform of Zoom and MS Teams was selected, and the factors affecting the user experience were evaluated in combination with task and Think Aloud, and seven Honeycomb models of Peter Mobil were reconstructed to be analyzed through surveys and in-depth interviews for each paragraph. Studies have shown that Zoom has high usability, usability, accessibility and searchability, and MS Teams have excellent attractiveness. Therefore, based on the results of this study, the guidelines for video conferencing platform services and the improvement of the interface were presented. Based on this study, we hope that the usability of videoconferencing will be improved, and that various related studies will proceed as follow-up studies.

Now a day, Information and its related system has been more important in our competitive environment. In this situation, there is also an important thing that we must take into consideration, that's the employer's resistance. Until now we have little material concerning the issue, user's resistance. Owing to that, it's a little hard to study the user's resistance against the IS. Dealing with the resistance effectively helps companies save a great deal of cost and build the information system successfully. This paper takes the Markus's theories about user's resistance. According to the theories, there are three keys theories affecting resistance. To sum this, people-oriented theory, system-oriented theory and Interaction theory. To complement the theories, this paper includes another theories related with resistance and takes total seven factors causing user's resistance. Among these seven factors, four factors have a meaningful effect on the user's resistance, that is, Self-efficacy, System Complexity, Threat of the one's status and politics and System Staff's service quality. Managers and system-related company should keep it in mind very carefully, and I hope they make the best use of the result of this study.

In order for a classification system to be useful in every day business environments, it has to reflect peculiar characteristics of enterprises and organizations. By automating the generation process of classification, the overall operation of classification system becomes effective and efficient. However, in order for it to be really useful, human input and interventions are needed from the very beginning phase of the classification generation. This paper proposes an user-guided classification generation algorithm, in which the user inputs a specific level of the classification that she/he wants. Also we propose and implement manipulation operators to tailor the initial classification into the shape that user wants.

This paper reports on the results of a questionnaire survey on actual conditions of sleep environment, sleep problems and sleep patterns in bedroom of house. The objectives of survey are: 1) classifying Korean people into several groups by sleep environment condition, sleep problem and life pattern, 2) describing the characteristics of user groups, and 3) searching needs of support for each user group. Despite of several studies about sleep condition that researched in advance, they weren't considered about user's respective characters. So it seems necessary for more studies about users' needs, and segment users to grasp their each detail needs. Therefore, this study conducted questionnaire survey gathering relevant information to classify user groups and to investigate the current bedroom condition. In the result, 702 respondents were divided into six clusters by extracted eight factors. Four clusters of them had some problems for sleep, so it could be seen that they need environmental solution for their good sleep. As the further objective, it will be connected to develop the good sleep system.
