The objective of this research is not only making the planning guides regarding a small-scale residential remodeling but also examining closely the social roles of the interior design for the poor and the underprivileged class by analyzing the residential remodeling cases. The scope of research includes 40 remodeling houses free of charge which are broadcasted in the TV program 'Love House'. Taking in consideration the characteristics of users like parentless or single-parent families and families with disabled persons, this study uses the spatial approach, user's convenience approach and psychological problem solving approach, in terms of the methodology. In result of the analysis of their interior design, first of all, it is essential solving the problem of limited house space by comparison with the family number. Second, the universal design concept for the family with disabled persons(72.5%), old persons or children is strengthened guaranteeing privacy in small and old interior space. Third, the interior design is focused in increasing communication among family members, because mental and physical obstacle would obstruct accessibility among them. This research shows the importance of the interior design which makes wide social roles contributing to create "welfare society".

Recently researchers have studied mobile physiological sensing device. However, previous works focused on multiple and real time physiological sensing method, instead of aesthetic shape of sensing devices, sensing comfort during monitoring and sensing reliability against the hand motion artifact. In this work, we propose a stone shaped physiological sensing device to monitor the physiological status in a daily life which maximize the aesthetic feeling and sensing comfort and sensing reliability. We proposed stepwise user centered design process for user centric physiological sensing device and evaluated appropriate sensing positions against the hand motion artifacts and pressure from sensors. From the usability test and experiments, we verified the proposed sensing device provides the aesthetic appeals, sensing comfort and sensing reliability. We expect that this work can be applied in the various health care applications in near future.

This study was attempted to promote changes in traditional design education at a time when non-face-to-face education is necessary, such as digitalization, rapid social structure change, and post-COVID-19 situations, and to meet the demands of the times when user-centered design is more emphasized. Therefore, the goal of this study is to explore the process of developing mobile apps and operating education for deaf learners through design thinking-based interaction design education for design students. Specifically, the curriculum was designed by selecting a design thinking methodology suitable for major students to experience empathy and solutions to user problems. The subject that students majoring in this study want to sympathize with is deaf learners, and the subject of the curriculum is the development of educational support applications for deaf learners. Accordingly, a mobile app prototype that can support online learning for deaf learners was created based on the interaction design education plan designed based on design thinking. In addition, after collecting and analyzing the feedback of deaf learners to evaluate the prototype effectiveness, the final mobile app prototype was presented as an output. Through this process, interactive design education based on design thinking helped to strengthen the ability to empathize with and solve the needs of deaf learners to major students and improve the design learning experience. Based on these findings, if a methodology suitable for various user groups is selectively accepted for design education, the students in the major will have the ability to design by prioritizing the actual needs of users despite changes in the environment of the future design society.

User-centered design aims to develop device naturally without the interference of user' s conscious and unconscious behavior. Accordingly, designers need to understand their user's requirements, observe user behavior and interaction in the real environment. However, existing observations suggested a vast range of analysis system and observation techniques which are often ambiguous to the designers. Therefore, this research is aimed to propose an observation system for collecting data from user's behavior. In order to do so, we define the components and behavior level within the context of driving.

IT(Information Technology) has focused on infrastructure-technologies in the past but now focuses on IT service. Many companies strive to save costs and improve IT services. For this reason, they strive to implement a good internalization of ITSM (IT Service Management) by developing ITSM systems based on ITIL (Information Technology Infrastructure Library) from the late 2000s. In particular, IT service operations are one of the structure elements of ITIL version 3 and are highly related to the internalization of ITSM. However, in spite-of-the successful implementation of ITSM, the efficiency of IT service management has not improved due to iterative issues. Therefore, this study developed a user-centered training system by defining the iterative issue guidelines and implementing a database. The implemented user-centered training system provided IT service users with regular training services to produce a good solution for iterative issues after connecting the operation part of the ITSM system. Based on the results of this study, we expect that the proposed ITSM system will contribute to efficiently managing IT services by improving the limitations of IT service operation in the ITSM system.
