This paper proposes a method to prioritize the virtual objects to be selected, considering both the user's hand and the geometric relationship with the virtual objects and the user's intention which is recognized in advance. Picking up virtual objects in VR content is an essential and most commonly used interaction. When virtual objects are located close to each other in VR, a situation occurs in which virtual objects that are different from the user's intention are selected. To address this issue, this paper provides different weights for user intentions and distance between user's hand and virtual objects to derive priorities in order to generate interactions appropriately according to the situation. We conducted the experiment in the situation where the number of virtual objects and the distance between virtual objects are diversified. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method when the density between virtual objects is high and the distance between each other is close, user satisfaction increases to 20.34% by increasing the weight ratio of the situation awareness. We expect the proposed method to contribute to improving interaction skills that can reflect users' intentions.

This study is based on the previous studies on m-commerce features, found factors that affects reliability and user's intention. After that, it examined how these factors influence the relationship between reliability and user's intention. In addition, this study showed that some factors have different influence on Korean and Chinese users in terms of reliability and user's intention. The main results of this study are as follows: (1) Personal innovation attributed to reliability in both Korea and China. Personal innovation also attributed to user's intention in Korea. (2) Localization, reach ability, security, and convenience had different influence on use and reliability in the two countries. (3) And the influences between reliability and user's intention are all positive both in Korea and China. Based on the result of this empirical study, this study reveal some implications for the firms that running with mobile business in both Korea and China.

There has been an increasing and widespread use of smartphones to make consumer purchases. Given the stark increases in the sales of business transactions using mobile phones, it is obvious that mobile phones have become major mediums for consumer purchases. Through mobile phones, people can make their purchases anytime, anywhere, which leads their impulse of consumption directly to actual actions of consumption. Consequently, mobile commerce has become widely spread and the competition of the market has intensified. The main findings and implications of this study are as follows. First, it is shown that, among the features of mobile commerce, elements of fun, usefulness, convenience, immediateness, and security affect mobile commerce user satisfaction. Second, among mobile commerce-related consumers' propensity, innovative consumption tendency appears to impact mobile commerce user satisfaction and repurchase intention. Third, recognition of elements in regards to fun, usefulness, convenience, immediateness, and security among features of mobile commerce affect consumers' intention to repurchase mobile commerce. Future recognition for mobile commerce has a direct impact on increasing consumers' repurchase intentions. Last, a higher mobile commerce user satisfaction leads to the higher repurchase intentions.

This study aims to understand the effects of perceived usefulness, perceived ease, and expected matching on user satisfaction and continuous use intention for the learning management system (LMS). To this end, an online survey was conducted on K University students located in Chungcheongbuk-do, and 488 data were analyzed and utilized. First, it was found that the expected match of the learning management system had an effect on perceived usefulness and perceived ease. Second, it was found that perceived usefulness, perceived ease, and expected matching had an effect on user satisfaction. Perceived usefulness, user satisfaction and perceived ease of use were found to have an effect on the intention to continue using. It can be seen that the improvement of the quality of the university education system has an effect on the improvement of learners' learning effects and satisfaction. Accordingly, it is necessary to seek various ways to continuously manage the quality of the learning management system.

As the easy payment service is popularized and the competition in the service market is fierce, research on factors affecting users' continuous use of the easy payment service is becoming increasingly important. However, in the existing studies, the discussion of the continuous intention to use the consumer's simple payment service has not been sufficiently conducted. Existing research remains on the way of listing technology and consumer characteristics. To bridge this research gap, this study aims to integrate and modify ECM and UTAUT to consider factors influencing the continuous use of easy payment services. The user's expectations and the confirmation were considered as important factors to decide. For empirical analysis, a survey was conducted for 236 users who had experience with domestic easy payment service. As a result, it was verified that confirmation, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and habit in regard to easy payment services are important for continuous use intention. Through this study, it is expected that the consumer's technology acceptance mechanism on the continuous use of simple payment will be grasped in more detail to develop academic discussions in the field. Implications from the results as well as limitations of the study are presented.

Web 2.0, characterized as openness, sharing, and participation, has enabled Internet users to easily generate a variety of contents, and to share them through Web 2.0 services. Knowledge search service (KSS) is positioning itself as one of typical Web 2.0 services. Yet, few studies have sharpened our understanding of users' knowledge sharing behavior in the KSS environment. In order to address this knowledge void, this paper attempts to explore antecedents of their usage behavior in the KSS environment. Typically, they utilize stored knowledge and share their knowledge simultaneously. Considering this characteristic, our study regards service usage intention and knowledge sharing intention as final dependent variables. This study advances a research model based on Bhattacherjee's expectation-confirmation model, which is expanded by incorporating trust belief. Because of the openness of KSS, trust belief is believed to play a critical role in forming users' service usage intention and knowledge sharing intention. Furthermore, this study examines the difference of the antecedents' effects in terms of users' gender. We collected data from 275 respondents who have experience in using KSS. PLS (partial least squares) was employed for the analysis of the data. Analysis results confirm the important role of user satisfaction and trust belief in the formation of users' service usage intention and knowledge sharing intention. More importantly, trust belief has a more salient effect on knowledge service usage intention than user satisfaction. This study also shows the moderating role of users' gender. Finally, this paper provides managerial guidance on strategic planning aimed at improving users' service usage intention and knowledge sharing intention in the KSS environment.

This work defines user intention according to intention range, and also proposes an interactive sound installation which reflects and varies above features. User intention consists of several decomposition concepts, which are elemental intentions, partial intentions, and a universal intention. And also, each concept is defined as inclusion/affiliation relationship with other concepts. For the representation of elemental intention, we implemented an musical interface, Color note, which represents the colors and notes according to response of participants. We also propose Harmonic Defragmentation (HD), which arranges the partial intentions with harmonic rule. Finally, the universal intention is inferred to the comprehensive direction of elemental intentions. We used Karhunen-Lo$\`{e}$ve(K-L) Transform for the inference. For verifying the validity of our proposed interface, the "Color Note," and the various techniques, we installed our work and surveyed various users for the evaluation of HD and statistical techniques. Also, we commissioned another survey to find out satisfaction measurement which was used for expressing universal intention.
