  • Objectives : This study was to determine how the perception and the satisfaction of outpatients who utilized clinics and hospitals are structurally related with their willingness to utilize the same institution in the future. Methods : Three hundred and ten responses (via convenient sampling) were collected from 5 hospitals and 20 clinics located in Seoul listed in the "Korea National Hospital Directory 2005". Service quality was utilized as the satisfaction measurement tool. For analysis, we used a structural equation modeling method. Results : The determining factors for general satisfaction with medical services are as follows: medical staff, reasonability of payment, comfort and accessibility. Such results may involve increased competition in the medical market and increased demands for quality medical services, which drive the patients to visit hospitals on their own on the basis of changed determining factors for satisfaction. Conclusions : The structural equation model showed that the satisfaction of outpatients with the quality of medical services is influenced by a few sub-dimensional satisfaction factors. Among these sub-dimensional satisfaction factors, the satisfaction with medical staff and payment were determined to exert a significant effect on overall satisfaction with the quality of medical services. The structural relationship in which overall satisfaction perceived by patients significantly influences their willingness to use the same institution in the future was also verified.

  • Network human-robot interface is an important research topic. In home application, users access the robotic system directly via voice, gestures or through the network. Users explore a system by using the services provided by this system and to some extend users are enable to participate in a service as partners. A service may be provided by a robot, a group of robots or robots and other network connected systems (distributed sensors, information systems, etc). All these services are done in the network environment, where uncertainty such as the unstable network connection, the availability of the partners in a service, exists. Moreover, these services are controlled by several users, accessing at different time by different methods. Our research aimed at solving this problem to provide a high available level, flexible coordination system. In this paper, a multi-agent framework is proposed. This framework is validated by using our new concept of slave agents, a responsive multi-agent environment, a virtual directory facilitator (VDF), and a task allocation system using contract net protocol. Our system uses a mixed model between distributed and centralized model. It uses a centralized agent management system (AMS) to control the overall system. However, the partners and users may be distributed agents connected to the center through agent communication or centralized at the AMS container using the slave agents to represent the physical agents. The system is able to determine the task allocation for a group of robot working as a team to provide a service. A number of experiments have been conducted successfully in our lab environment using Issac robot, a PDA for user agent and a wireless network system, operated under our multi agent framework control. The experiments show that this framework works well and provides some advantages to existing systems.

  • This paper proposes an adaptive inter-agent communication protocol to considerably reduce the amount of agent location information maintained by each service node and the message delivery time while avoiding the dependency of the home node of a mobile agent. To satisfy this goal, the protocol enables each mobile agent to autonomously leave its location information only on some few of its visiting nodes. Also, it may significantly reduce the agent cache updating frequency of each service node by keeping the identifier of the location manager of each agent in the smart agent location cache of the node. Simulation results show that the proposed protocol reduces about $76%{\sim}80%$ of message delivery overhead and about $76%{\sim}79%$ of the amount of agent location information each service node should maintain compared with the traditional one.

  • Today, GIS service requires not only a simple map visualization but also geographical information of each object. However, POI service provides simply geographical naming service only because of lacking in geographical information of objects. In addition, geographical space data representation functioning that is the basis for most GIS has not been standardized yet. In this paper, it is designed that POI DB that is hierarchical and user-oriented and it is constructed that GVP(GML Viewer POI) that is the basis of GML specification to overcome difference and incompatibility of map visualization. GVP adds POI DB in a 3-Layer structure to dBase file managing the information of SHP file attributes. Therefore, POI visualization enables hierarchical search, by providing POI information in directory-type grouping. Consisting of map visualization and POI visualization, GVP regenerates attributes in the form of individual objects and responds to user events immediately.

  • According to many smart devices are development, SNS(Social Network Service) users are getting higher that is possible for real-time communicating, information sharing without limitations in distance and space. Nowadays, SNS users that based on communication and relationships, are getting uses SNS for information sharing. In this paper, we used the SNS posts for users to extract the category and information provider, how to following of recommend method. Particularly, this paper focuses on classifying the words in the text of the posts and measures the frequency using Inception-v3 model, which is one of the machine learning technique -CNN(Convolutional Neural Network) we classified image word. By classifying the category of a word in a text and image, that based on DMOZ to build the information provider DB. Comparing user categories classified in categories and posts from information provider DB. If the category is matched by measuring the degree of similarity to the information providers is classified in the category, we suggest that how to recommend method of the most similar information providers account.

  • Virtual hosting is a typical service to connect each directory of site and domain name. If traffic amounts may increase at one site present in the server, then it affects traffic amounts of other sites as well (including the sites which have flew requests). To overcome this problem, we suggest a simple feedback-control concept for the system by periodically monitoring the traffic and properly actuating traffic dispersions by investigating the log file. Specifically, large files are to be served in a backup server (to reduce the workload of the main server) by changing their own URL's in html format. In other words, it automatically redistributes the workload by using the URL. Furthermore, we also use the redirecting method by just adding html tags to html header. This method efficiently handles the workload and maintains the capability of the server effectively to the varying workload.

  • RFID/USN은 u-Korea를 구현하는 핵심 인프라로서 무한한 성장 잠재력을 내포하고 있으며 향후 인터넷에 이어 산업 전반에 커다란 변혁을 가져올 수 있는 분야로 대두되고 있다. 우리나라의 경우 u-Korea 비전과 세계적인 RFID/USN 기술을 확보하여 세계 시장을 선점하고자 하는 IT839 정책에 따라 RFID/USN에 대한 관심도가 사회 전반적으로 증대되어 USN에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있으며 앞으로 USN 인프라 구축이 완료됨에 따라 USN을 활용하기 위한 USN 어플리케이션들이 빠르게 증가할 것이다. USN 인프라 기반의 어플리케이션 개발을 보다 손쉽게 하기 위해 USN 미들웨어의 필요성이 대두되며 디렉토리 서비스는 USN 미들웨어를 구성하는 핵심 서비스 중의 하나이다. 그러나 USN 구성요소인 WSN의 특성 등을 고려할 때 USN 인프라에 적합한 디렉토리 서비스는 검색에 중점을 둔 기존의 디렉토리 서비스와 달리 갱신문제가 나타날 수 있으며 본 논문은 이를 극복할 수 있는 디렉토리 서비스의 설계 및 구현에 대해 논한다.

  • Grid makes it possible to cooperate with other network area by sharing and using distributed resources. In order to manage effectively large-scale Grid network resources, Grid NOC needs monitoring architecture that can manage distributed resources in one time. Being restricted within specific managing area, conventional network management system has limitation in extension of managing area and in general management of heterogeneous resource. In this paper, we design a monitoring architecture that can take in the situation and has scalability. In the monitoring architecture the network areas publish information in a common directory service, and then Grid NOC can connect to the network areas directly by using this information. Therefore, it makes us possible to manage overall large-scale resource of Grid network reducing load.
