One of the major factors influencing the phenomenal growth of the smart phone market is the active development applications based on open environments. Despite difficulties in finding and downloading applications due to the small screens and inconvenient interfaces of smart phones, users download applications nearly every day. Such user behavior patterns indicate the significance of smart phone applications. So far, studies on applications have focused mainly on technical approaches, including recommendation systems. Meanwhile, the issue of culture, as an aspect of user characteristics regarding smart phone use, remains largely unexamined throughout the world. Hence, the present study attempts to analyze the highest ranked smart phone applications downloaded and paid for that are ranked the highest in 10 countries (Korea, Japan, China, India, the UK, USA, Indonesia, Canada, France, and Mexico) and we then derive the CDSC (Cultural Dimensions Score of Content) for these applications. The results derived are, then, mapped to the cultural dimensions model to determine the CISC (Cultural Index Score for Country). Further, culturally significant differences in smart phone environments are identified using MDS analysis.

Recently our lives have become more convenient as a development of smart phones. For this reason, smart phone users have increased rapidly as well. However existing built-in functions in smart phone are not fully supported variety of currently released applications. So Appcessories that combines mobile handsets and accessories is attracting the notice of smart phone users. In this paper, we design and implement remote control Appcessories using Bluetooth communication. Also we verify a robustness of mobile terminals and system hardware and convenience of using applications by applying it to the infant car system.

The mobile characteristics of the smart phone are well suited to on-the-site oriented services and are being utilized in a variety of ways. However, since most applications operate on a central server basis, Internet access is inevitable, and there are various problems such as an increase in server maintenance cost and security deterioration. Although researches have been proposed to utilize the smart phone itself as a server to improve it, these methods are based on downsizing the PC-based web server or modifying the smart phone kernel. These methods have the problems that a end user has to use the rooting, and they are not able to effectively utilize various communication means of a smart phone. In this paper, we propose a design and implementation of an application level smart phone web server. The server receives the document request from the remote via the Internet and in the local area using the WPAN. At this time, the web document is stored as an internal file structure of the smart phone application. We proposed the phttp protocol which uses server's phone number as ID for document request. Through the implementation, we analyzed the capacity and latency of stored data and its effectiveness is evaluated.

A smart phone which is one of the new IT technologies can be viable on various enterprise applications since it provides easily information and services. Especially, a smart phone can request queries to a server which finds massive data for decision making and receive the results of the queries from the server. However, a smart phone has a drawback that its battery is consumed easily due to the 4G communication. In this paper, we propose mobile views in order to reduce the easy consumption of a battery on mobile client-server environment. The proposed mobile view scheme reduces the number of communication which is leading to power consumption using materialized views for processing queries. We also classify the methods to control the consistency of the mobile view as the sources of the view are changed and present the cost of each method based on the cost model of battery consumption.

Recently, the smart phone including web and mobile service based on the reliability and extendability of cloud computing is receiving huge attention. However, most of current cloud services provide just an application service for synchronizing data between mobile entity and server. Business model developed by communication companies have problems with interoperability. This paper proposes a new service security authentication model to efficiently manage smart phone users using different business models between smartphones and to keep the reliability and extendability of cloud computing. Proposed model authenticates for smart phone users to stay with in the unified communication with smart phone user's identity and access control to effectively use the current cloud computing system.

After the concept of Cloud Computing was first introduced, IT industry had focused on it. The Cloud Computing market is increasing as many major coporations have been participating in it. Now, the possibility of Mobile Cloud Computing has rising. Needless to say, the growth of Mobile Cloud Computing is explosive. Mobile industry changes its operational system from FeaturePhone to SmartPhone which are based on iPhone or Android. The number of Smart phone users in Korea exceeds 10 millions. Through this study, we will examine sorts and acctual situations of available domestic and international Mobile Cloud Computing Services in SmartPhone. Also, we will investigate the problems of current Mobile Cloud Computing and present the solutions.

공학의 기본 원리 학습을 위해서는 원리 그림이나 도표와 같은 콘텐츠의 사용이 필요하다. 하지만 시간과 공간의 제약으로 학습이 불충분하고, 편리성과 멀티미디어 콘텐츠를 갖추지 못하면 학습의 효과도 떨어지는 문제점이 있다. 최근 Smart Phone 사용자가 증가하고, Smart Phone을 이용한 교육프로그램을 제공하여 이동 중에도 공학의 기본 원리와 같은 학습이 필요한 시점이다. 본 논문에서는 열역학의 법칙 등 열역학에 관한 학습 콘텐츠를 Smart Phone에서 구현하고자 한다. 실제 Web 서버를 통하여 무선 인터넷 통신망에서 제공되는 열역학의 교육 공학적 도표, 애니메이션, 그림, 등을 Smart Phone에서의 설계하고 구현한다. 본 연구는 교육공학과 학습 프로그램 제공을 통해 모바일 원격교육 발전에 기여할 것이다.

Since korean mobile communication companies each use different mobile platforms, developers must configure and translate their game contents to run under each of the smart phone platforms so that they can be serviced correctly. Nevertheless, such translation tasks require lengthy times and costs. This is one of the reasons why a variety of contents could not be provided. In order to mitigate such difficulty, this paper implemented the contents analyzer and the resource converter of the automatic mobile contents converter system that converts game contents of the mobile platform such as the WIPI and the GNEX to contents of the smart platform such as the Android and the iOS. The automatic mobile contents converter system helps minimize the amount of time and cost required in servicing contents to different mobile communication companies by promptly converting platform-specific-contents to run under smart platforms. Also, the automatic conversion and servicing of existing contents increases the reusability of these contents and also the productivity of new contents thereby offering users with a more variety of game contents.

With the rapid growth of smart phone technologies, mobile user's demands for using services provided by existing web or portal cites are highly increased. These services, however, are designed for the environment of desktop PCs or laptops in general, so it requires lots of costs for corrections and has difficulties for system protection to use in current mobile devices. In this paper, we design and implement a middleware for android-based smart phone apps to cooperate with a portal system with minimum corrections and function configuration. Our middleware system is working as an interface between an existing portal system and mobile devices to provide harmonious usage and safe system protection.

The smart phone are changing the way people communicate. And, the mobile app marketplace is greatly fast-growing. The app store continues its rapid growth, there are already more than 900,000 mobile apps on AppStore. We anticipate to see gained momentum throughout the business. Mobile is also becoming popular for marketers. Therefore, specialized app analysis systems are becoming important to how marketers and app developers invest, analyze and market their apps. App analysis systems enable users to discover and analyze behavior through data observations and meaningful patterns. In this paper, we introduce app analysis system and CMS System Open API, NugaLog. The NugaLog acquires users data and engages with them in a variety of ways. It will be essential for us to understand how users interact with and move through the app. The NugaLog will be able to see the number of users, smart phone model, smart phone OS, resolution, page views, and app version.
