This study analyses the relationship with the feature of the web usability and Social commerce. Therefore, this research tries to investigate the relationship about in which the characteristic of the web-site usability is connected through the confidence about the Social commerce site to the re-purchase. The existing research that the information system and Electronic commerce relates is considered and the usability factor about the Social commerce site tries to be drawn and these try to verify on the relationship with the trust building of the user about the Social commerce site and purchasing intention through the positive research. The result is follows. First, the visual property of the Social commerce site was confirmed to have the descriptive ability noted to the confidence. Second, it was confirmed to have the descriptive ability that information characteristic about the Social commerce site notes to the confidence. Third, it was confirmed to have the descriptive ability that relative characteristic about the Social commerce site notes to the confidence. The importance of the web-site usuability has preferentially to be considered in being put through this research and building the confidence of the social commerce user could be known. When running with the social commerce site design, this is determined because it can become the useful standard.

The purpose of this study was to identify affordance usability problems and to improve an interface on the Web-based Diagnosis-Supplement system from learner's perspective in order to promote to be utilized as an user-friendly system. To address those goals, user testings with 6 students from 4th grade of the primary school and 3rd grade of the middle school were conducted and the firstly improved prototypes were suggested. Then, the suggested prototypes were reviewed by experts and finalized. This study has an implication on the methodology of the usability study by evaluating the system through the Hartson's 3 affordance theory. In addition, it contributes to improving pedagogical effects by the fixing serious affordance usability problems related to main tasks of the system such as the test questions and score visualization and matching between system and real world.

Recently, the importance of cultural design has been increasing due to the globalization. However the cultural design is mainly focusing on the shape or color stereotype of different cultures, ignoring another important aspects of cultural design: the way of peoples' interacting with product. The study aims to develop usability test program for cultural user-interface design that operates in the world wide web. The study begins with discussing the nature of culture through defining culture and reviewing the depth and variables of culture. Based on the findings the structure of the usability testing program on the WWW design methods is identified. The usability testing program on the WWW comprises of five different modules: module for identifying users' demographic characteristics, module for cultural variables, module for population stereotype, module for usability testing, and module for data storage and analysis. Finally findings are summarized and further research prospects are outlined.

The primary goal of this paper is to develop an evaluation model for Web site design that have substantial effects of the performance of marketing and promotion of goods and services of the company. This paper proposes 3 design aspects such as dosing concepts, usability, and artistic coordination. The model also have tested its applicability to real world examples through an appropriate statistical techniques. Then, the model has been actually applied into 6 typical web sites and their design problems are thoroughly investigated and compared each other. Several web site design guidelines are also proposed for web design practitioners.

Web services (WS) present a new promising software technology, which provides application-to-application interaction. They are built on the top of existing web protocol and based on open XML standards. Web services are described using WSDL, and the UDDI is a integration directory provide registry of Web Services descriptions. WSDL provides information of Web Services but it is getting more and more important to know more than those provided by WSDL. From WSDL we can not get the information like usage of WS, performance of WS, complexity of WS, usability of WS with other web service. In this paper, we proposed a new method for Web Services so called Public Web Services Analyzer (PWSA). This technique is based on analyzing various public UDDI registries in order to get various kinds of statistics of web services. Those statistics will be used by both web services developers and consumers for finding them suitable services for their needs. PWSA guarantees that it can provide enough information to find right web services for both Web Services Consumers and Web Service Developers.

The library is a social institution that should ensure all users' information access rights. In this study, the concept of universal design is analyzed as a theoretical basis that library Websites should be accessed equitably by all kinds of users, and an evaluation criteria is developed based on the principles of universal design. The Websites of 7 regional central libraries are evaluated with suggested criteria and the ratio of compliance of universal Web design is measured. In the result, the most of the Websites are showed not only high performances on the area of (1) Web accessibility and (2) usability, but low performances on the area of (1) equitable use and (2) flexibility in use.

Website usability has been considered as a critical success factor for e-business. It has been widely acknowledged that website design with high level of usability results in positive outcomes including the increased number of visitors and vigorous user activities. Navigation which is an action for accessing and finding information is closely related with web usability when user access website providing information. The purpose of this study is to obtain design insights for improving website navigability of Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare (MHW). Action research and gaze analysis methods were applied, and we found design issues with regard to navigability in MHW website and the way how to improve. The lessons and implementation experiences will be beneficial in stimulating further theoretical work from researchers in the area of web usability. We also expect our study provide significant insights for design practitioners.

This study aims to evaluate KOLIS-NET system by usefulness testing of 'KOLIS-NET client integrated system' and by usability testing of 'KOLIS-NET web site'. For evaluating the usefulness of the system, we used searching, ease of use, customer support as criteria, and used brainstorming and in-depth interview as evaluation method. On the other hand, for usability testing of the web site, we used cognitive walkthrough. Evaluation results are categorized and represented as page redesign, term consistency, function improvement and new functionality.

Considering the online idea generation, or web-storming, system would be used differently by space designers depending on their job characteristics, the present study tested the usability of web-storming using a factor correlation table with a designer group in the field. Then, for analyses, the results were compared with the previous findings on the usability of web-storming in a design administrator group to suggest comprehensive measures applicable to web-storming. The questionnaire results were analysed following a process of observation-interpretation-application, and the space design process and web-storming function factors were also analysed based on a factor correlation table. The analyses found that the most correlated space design process in both administrator and designer groups was the schematic design phase, and that the correlation started to lower upon division of labour. The assessment phase was found significantly different between the designer group and the administrator group. The assessment phase showed the second highest correlation in the designer group. In terms of the aspects related to project operation, the correlation was found higher in the designer group. Based on the findings, new applicable measures to each phase of web-storming were derived and summed up to suggest how to take advantage of web-storming in the field.
