The increased interest in consumer health information(CHI) has brought about a rapid increase in CHI resources. There are diverse means for obtaining such information, and one CHI acquisition route is the public library. In the U.S. public libraries, the demand for CHI reference services is increasing, and a variety of projects to promote these services are in progress. On the other hand, Korean public library services for CHI is at a very basic level, and thus a very small amount of such research could be found. This study drew suggestions from a literature review of research studies in the U.S. and Canada, and analyzed public library CHI services in Korea. The findings are as follows. 1) Only 17.25% of public libraries in Korea provided CHI service, and it evidences very low needs and awareness for CHI services in Korea. 2) Only three kinds of services including CHI-related websites, users training, and promotional and marketing were provided, and only 13(1.74%) of libraries surveyed offered more than two kinds of services. 3) There were no CHI librarians, nor did any librarians receive CHI-related education. 4) ILL services, outreach services, and cooperation with CHI- and medical-related institutions for CHI services were not found. Therefore, this study suggests that more research on delivery strategies for CHI services should be conducted in the future.

As user's demands for high-speed data traffic are recently increased, ABR services are considered as one of important service requirements in ATM networks. Unfortunately, a number of existing ATM switching systems have structural drawbacks as to support ABR services because these switching systems have been developed to support realtime(rt) services such as CBR and rt-VBR services. To support ABR services in the existing ATM switching systems, new traffic control mechanisms for ABR services are required. This paper proposes a method for supporting ABR services in ATM swithcing systems without back-pressure mechanisms and evaluates the performance of the proposed method using simulation.

Geospatial information, which deeply has an effect on our life, have been evolved as intelligent geospatial information in Ubiquitous era. Also, Various services are introduced using the intelligent geospatial information. However, there is no classification system, for understanding the intelligent geospatial information services, considering any developers and users. It needs to be classification system to classify these services. In this paper, we introduced a concept of intelligent geospatial information and developed a service classification matrix regarding to the features of the services. This service classification matrix has three scales; service domain, service intelligent level, and geo-location accuracy. The propose of this matrix can be utilized in two aspects. First, the matrix can improve the reality that doesn't reflect actual demands for the services. Second, the matrix can present the goal of the new services or the development direction. The matrix can be utilized to the geospatial industry as creating the new blue ocean services. However, the service classification matrix needs to modify and complement to have no anything wrong when the various services are applied to the matrix. In the long run, the matrix has to be utilized as a material to make out a service roadmap or TRM(Technical Reference Model).

With the purpose of looking into the information service study tendency, targeted at university library, this performed a content analysis of the articles in print from 2006 to 2015 on major four academic journals of Library and Information Science. Investigation items were study number of information services, subsidiary themes classified with information service functions, study method, collection method, user object, and theory study vs. service study in reality. As a result, information service studies were performed more than other areas. Information service functions targeted at the study were that of information supply. Major subsidiary themes were electronic information service, information literacy instruction, and information (reference) services general. Major study methods were survey research method,, case study, and major material collection methods were questionnaire and web-based research methods. Major user studies were targeted at undergraduates, and service study in reality took a great share.

This study was conducted as part of an effort to vitalize policy information services (POINT) of National Library of Korea, Sejong. The authors examined information behavior and policy information service use behavior of policy information users and checked if there are any differences in information behavior by participants' occupations (public officials, researchers, and librarians). We carried out an online survey and collected 331 completed survey responses. Overall, the most frequently used type of material was research report, followed by journal article and monograph, etc. The participants frequently used search engines and policy information services to acquire policy information. Also, 47.7% of the participants were aware of and had usage experience of POINT. Furthermore, we found statistically significant differences in some aspects of policy information behavior and in perceptions toward POINT across participants' occupations. These findings suggest that National Library of Korea, Sejong needs to improve their services based on a better understanding on target users.

Volunteer services in communities work to provide human and material resources needed in social welfare centers and help the centers efficiently and effectively respond to diverse needs in society as well as provide quality services to clients. With this in mind, this study presents a few political suggestions on their utilization. First, potential volunteer development should be done in communities. Second, users of diverse volunteering services should be developed. Third, centers should pay attention to promotion of volunteers and the volunteers should be completely educated before services are rendered.

To reduce delay for high priority packets in the ring-based EPON, the EPON packet classifier groups services as their priorities and frames for services are dynamically framed as their priorities. Since dynamic framing for a packet priority dynamically changes assignment spaces in the maximum framing packet size as network traffics, it makes services with high priority to improve quality of services with relative low threshold time for transmitting.

Recently, the area of ubiquitous computing has gained a great attention both in academics and in industry. However, previous research on this area attempts the categorization in part of context and the critical success factors (CSFs) and services of ubiquitous computing unsuccessfully. The purpose of this paper is to propose a framework on ubiquitous computing, including its context, roadmap, CSFs, and services.

광범위하게 이용하고 있는 웹은 기존에 텍스트나 이미지만을 제공하던 정적인 정보에서 사용자 위주의 서비스 중심으로 변화하고 있다. 웹 환경의 변화는 Web Services를 등장 시켰고 산업계에서 이미 이를 위한 표준화 작업 및 표준에 따른 Web Services 개발을 주력하고 있다. 이에 Web Services를 이용한 어플리케이션 개발이 또 다른 소프트웨어 공학적 이슈로 대두되어 그를 위안 연구가 진행 중이다. 본 논문에서는 Web Services 어플리케이션 개발을 위한 목표 지향 분석 방안을 제시하고 결론과 시멘틱 웹 의 표현 기준의 하나인 DAML로 변환하는 알고리즘이 향후 연구되어야 할 과제임을 논한다
