  • Recently, the building construction industry has been forced to cope with lack of skilled labor. A robot-based construction automation system should help overcome crucial troubles which may be caused by this phenomenon. In particular, it is vital to propose design for automation (DFA). Quality function deployment (QFD) is applied a systematic aid in determining the design reflecting customer's needs. This study employs the QFD approach to plan the component designs of an effective automation process, and presents the development process of DFA with an illustrative project. As a result, the study identifies the developers' design requirements for automated construction and weights them by their importance indices.

  • With the proliferation of smart devices, mobile banking has become increasingly important. Customers can manage their banking needs without desktop computers or a face-to-face meeting with bank tellers. However, contrary to expectation of wide-spread use of mobile banking, several factors restrict its adoption. The purpose of this study is to explore what factors affect positively or negatively the adoption of mobile banking from economic (operational competence, convenience, mental accounting), psychological (hope, self-efficacy, optimism, resiliency) and social perspectives (normative social pressure, embarrassment avoidance). This paper suggests that three enablers would consequently affect a customer's perceived utilitarian and hedonic value in mobile banking, followed by trust and intention to use. In testing the hypothesized research model, survey and analysis of a structural equation model using Amos are conducted. The findings emphasize that banks need to focus on perceived utilitarian and hedonic values when considering economic, psychological and social enablers most salient to customers in order to promote greater adoption of mobile banking services.

  • Today's propensity to consume is described as a side view of distinct personality, which is different from others, and self-identity. While general enterprises understand the consumer's pattern and reflect it into the marketing, the university is based on conservative spirit and dose not cope with the needs of the times. Therefore the service provided by the university dose not make effective products that reflect the taste of the new generation who is the major customer. University diary, which is one of the typical brusher and costs ten millions won every year, is an example of the ineffective products. As compared with other university advertisements or public relations which the university is recently trying to improve, no interest is given to professional planning and cares for the design of the university diary. In this paper, we study the university identity and information to increase the usefulness of the university diary.
