During the last decade, social live streaming service like Periscope, Ustream, and YouNow has developed from a niche market into a mainstream activity. In this media environment, social live streaming service has a tremendous impact on the social behaviors of users. Despite the rapid development, there are a lack of studies to make better understand the media environment changes through social live streaming service. This study adopted an affordances approach that leads us to identify six distinctive social affordances (visibility, accessibility, information sharing, social interaction, role-taking, interactive revenue) for user engagement in social live streaming service. Specifically, this study explores the impact of social affordances on perceived flow, followed by user engagement including passive and active engagement. Empirical data analysis with 258 questionnaires suggests that social affordances affected users' flow perception, and flow has an effect on active as well as passive engagement. Contrary to the expectation in a hypothesized research model, only the impact of accessibility on flow was rejected.

In this paper a safe arm with passive compliant joints and visco-elastic covering is designed for human-friendly service robots. The passive compliant joint (PCJ) is composed of a magneto-rheological (MR) damper and a rotary spring. In addition to a spring component, a damper is introduced for damping effect and works as a rotary viscous damper by controlling the electric current according to the angular velocity of spring displacement. When a manipulator interacts with human or environment, the joints and cover passively operate and attenuate the applied collision force. The force attenuation property is verified through collision experiments showing that the proposed passive arm is safe in view of some evaluation measures.

본 논문에서는 각 중복서비스의 수행형태가 결정적이냐 비결정적이냐에 따라 알맞은 수동형중복 프로토콜을 적용함으로써 이동 에이전트 시스템에서 중복 서비스의 결함포용성과 확장성을 향상시키는 새로운 전략을 제안한다. 이러한 목적을 위해 두 개의 수동형 중복 프로토콜들인 PRPNS과 PRPDS를 각각 비결정적 중복 서비스와 결정적 중복 서비스를 위해 설계한다. 이 두 프로토콜들은 모두 방문 이동 에이전트들이 반드시 주 서비스 에이전트만이 아니라 보조 서비스 에이전트를 수행하는 임의의 노드로 전달되어 수행될 수 있도록 한다. 특히, 프로토콜 PRPDS는 임의의 보조 서비스 에이전트가 이동 에이전트 요구 메시지를 수신하고, 주 서비스 에이전트로부터 그 요구 메시지의 전달 일련번호를 얻은 후에, 그 보조 서비스 에이전트가 해당 요구 메시지를 처리하고 다른 중복 서비스 에이전트들과의 조정역할을 할 수 있도록 한다. 따라서, 이 두 프로토콜들을 사용하는 본 논문의 전략은 이동 에이전트 시스템에서 매우 많은 수의 이동 에이전트들이 동시에 접근하고자 하는 중복서비스의 높은 확장성을 보장할 수 있다. 본 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안된 전략이 기존의 수동형 중복프로토콜만을 사용하는 전략에 비해 매우 향상된 성능을 발휘한다는 것을 보여준다.

This study aimed to explore online learning profiles of in-service teachers in South Korea, focusing on video lecture and discussion activities. A total of 269 teachers took an online professional development course for 14 days, using an online learning platform from which web log data were collected. The data showed the frequency of participation and the initial participation time, which was closely related to procrastinating behaviors. A cluster analysis revealed three online learning profiles of in-service teachers: procrastinating (n=42), passive interaction (n=136), and active learning (n=91) clusters. The active learning cluster showed high-level participation in both video lecture and discussion activities from the beginning of the online course, whereas the procrastinating cluster was seldom engaged in learning activities for the first half of the learning period. The passive interaction cluster was actively engaged in watching video lectures from the beginning of the online course but passively participated in discussion activities. As a result, the active learning cluster outperformed the passive interaction cluster in learning achievements. The findings were discussed in regard to how to improve online learning environments through considering online learning profiles of in-service teachers.

In this paper, we have presented the results of Wavelength Division Multiplexing-Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON) based fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) field trial test which was held in the city of Gwangju. We have implemented an injection locked Fabry-Perot Laser Diode (FP-LD) based WDM-PON system and reliably delivered Internet Protocol TV (IP-TV), networked Personal Video Recorder (N-PVR), High-Definition Video on Demand (HD-VoD), Education on Demand (EoD) and Internet service as FTTH service through the system during the field trial test. We have also verified that the WDM-PON system worked well to provide quality of service (QoS) guaranteed 100Mbps bandwidth per subscriber. Furthermore, we have presented network designing issues in Outside Plant (OSP) and Customer Premises Network (CPN) that should be overcome to efficiently deploy FTTH service. Finally, based on the field trial test results, we proposed FTTH service deployment strategies.

본 논문에서는 XGPON (10-Gigabit-capable passive optical network)의 새로운 동적대역할당 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존의 알고리즘들과 달리 제안된 알고리즘은 각 서비스 클래스별로 공통의 서비스 카운터를 갖는다. 그리고 하나의 서비스 클래스에서 사용되지 않고 남는 대역폭을 다른 서비스 클래스에서 사용할 수 있게 하여 대역폭 활용도를 향상시킨다. 제안된 알고리즘이 기존 알고리즘들에 비해 비교우위에 있는 것을 보이기 위해 다양한 예를 제시한다.

TPS(Triple Play Service)의 적용을 위한 유망기술로 PON(Passive Optical Network)기술이 있다. PON 기술의 가장 중요한 요소는 패킷의 처리량을 효율적으로 높일 수 있는 MAC(Multiple Access Control)기술이다. MAC 기술의 핵심은 DBA(Dynamic Bandwidth Algorithm)로 내부 환경을 고려하는 SR-DBA(Status Report DBA), 환경을 고려하지 않는 NSR-DBA(Non Status Report DBA)방식이 존재한다. 하지만 GPON의 DBA 알고리즘은 BPON의 알고리즘을 사용하여 성능이 떨어진다. 본 연구에서는 네트워크의 효율적이고 신속한 처리를 위한 BR(Borrow-Refund)-DBA 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 알고리즘의 성능평가를 위하여 처리량(Throughput), 공정성(Fairness), 큐 지연(Queue Delay) 항목에 대해 SR-DBA, NSR-DBA의 환경에 맞추어 평가하였다.

Unlike industrial manipulators, the manipulators mounted on the service robots are interacting with humans in various aspects. Therefore, safety has been the important design issue. Many compliant robot arm designs have been introduced for safety. It is known that passive compliance method has faster response and higher reliability than active ones. In this paper, a new safe mechanism based on passive compliance has been proposed. Passive mechanical elements, specifically transmission angle of the 4-bar linkage, springs and shock absorbing modules are incorporated into this safe mechanism. This mechanism works only when the robot arm exerts contact force much more than the human pain tolerance. Validity of the safe mechanism is verified by simulations and experiments. In this research, it is shown that the manipulator using this mechanism provides higher performance and safety than those using other passive compliance mechanisms.
