In aspect of HCI(Human Computer Interaction) gameplay is the procedure to solve the problem that gamers encounter in order to generate or discover a new rule to achieve gamers' goal. The goal of this research is to investigate the structure and understand the gameplay in aspect of affordance from ecological psychology rather than the traditional problem solving theory. This research selects 'World of Warcraft' as MMORPG(Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game). Five expert gamers participated in this experiment. We record all gameplay using audio and video device. We conducted protocol analysis as qualitative method based on the verbal report and action protocol during game playing. As result, gameplay based on affordance includes selection and relation. We found that subjects selected one thing at once with attention. Moreover, we found that there were two behaviors : exploratory action and performatory action. We believe that learning, utilization, and transformation for affordance appear. The result of this research imply to suggest design guideline for game design methodology when designers develop game.

In today's era of media convergence, users can watch a drama by choosing a story like a game or enjoy a game directed like a movie. These two media material interactive storytelling, and there have been discussions about them for many years. The purposes of this study are to propose a new branch structure for interactive storytelling and find a new perspective for the method of proceeding with a branch structure. The main research targeted a game that materialized interactive storytelling best. Based on the findings, the study proposed a volume branch structure including a plot border and adjuster concept for interactive storytelling to keep the story narrative and help the users feel interactions freely. This structure can be materialized only with real-time edited videos in the game media and will be possible in the application cases of a physical engine that continues to develop and artificial intelligence that has not been introduced in games actively.

A player character has a significant influence on immersion. In order to understand the consumers, it is necessary to compare age and gender of player characters, which is the most basic feature of the player character. We selected a prize winning work of 15 years of USA and japanese as research subjects(in RPG and Adventure), classified age and gender of player characters and analyzed the result. In the japanese games, the ratio of pre-set player characters was 94.3% for age and 88.6% for gender. In the USA games, It was the order of the pre-set character which did not specify the age and the customized type character. In this research, we would like to contribute guidelines for player character setting to successfully advance into the USA and Japanese game market.

Smoothing is a transmission plan where variable rate video data is converted to a constant bit rate stream. Among them are CBA, MCBA, MVBA and others. However, these smoothing algorithms produce a transmission plan where extra bandwidth in server is not considered. This may cause difficulty in providing videos to many clients in a server. In this paper, we propose the smoothing algorithm with monotonic transmission rate increase and abrupt transmission rate decrease, in order to provide videos to as many clients in server with limited network bandwidth as possible. In order to show the performance of our proposed algorithm, various evaluation factors were used such as the maximum number of clients, the average number of clients, and so on. Experiments demonstrated that the proposed algorithm outperformed other algorithms in evaluation factors such as the maximum number of clients and the average number of clients.

This paper introduces an efficient and satisfactory search interface that enables users to browse and find the video data they want from a massively huge video database widely used in various multimedia environment. The target user group is information analysts at US defense industry or governmental intelligence agencies whose job is to identify a certain person from a lot of video footage taken from CCTV(Closed-circuit Television) cameras. For the first user test, we suggested the CAVE-like virtual reality interface to be the most optimal for the tasks we designed for, so we compared this interface with desktop interface. The softwares and database developed and optimized for each task were used in this user test. For the second user test, we researched on what input devices would be most optimal for enhancing efficiency of search task in the CAVE-like virtual reality system. Especially we focused our effort on measuring the effectiveness and user satisfaction of three different types of devices that embody gestural interface input system that encourages users' ergonomic control of the interface. We also measured the time consumed for performing each task to find out the most efficient input device among the ones tested.

Mobile based location-based service can normally be classified into four categories according to their dimensions of their screen layout: map-based, bird-eye view based, photo-based, and video-based. Specifically, video-based layout system combining AR technology has a appealing factor to users through the reality-based presence but normally requires sophisticated real-time image matching algorithms to represent the system. This paper provides a new location-based service by introducing mirror world to resolve the problem and implements its prototype. The proposed service does not need such algorithm and will effectively be useful for users to get the reality of the presence for any locations which is regardless of a user's real location.
