  • Objective: The present study developed a comprehensive usability testing and analysis framework based on a physical interface model of product and user and applied the proposed framework to usability testing of canister-type vacuum cleaner. Background: The development of a user-centered product design is important to satisfy customers who want to use the product with ease of use and to keep the manufacturer competitive in the market. Method: The proposed testing and analysis framework consists of (1) characterization of physical product-user interface, (2) preparation and administration of usability testing questionnaire, and (3) analysis and interpretation of usability testing results. A usability evaluation of five vacuum cleaners was planned and administered based on the proposed framework and its analysis produced detailed and overall usability testing results for various aspects such as tasks, usability criteria, and design components. Results: The testing results were further utilized to identify usability problems and preferred design features of the vacuum cleaners. Conclusion: The proposed usability testing and analysis framework was found effective to identify preferred features and problems of a product design in a systematic, holistic manner. Application: The proposed framework can be of effective use for practitioners of product design and development to obtain comprehensive, quantitative usability testing information in a systematic manner.

  • Since the emissions composition from the household products have potentially been associated with health risks for building occupants, the chemical composition emitted from the products should be surveyed. The current study identified the emission composition for 42 liquid household products, using a purge-and-trap method. This evaluation was done by classifying the household products into five product classes (deodorizers, household cleaners, color removers, pesticides, and polishes). Nineteen compounds were chosen on the basis of selection criteria. The quality control program for purge-and-trap and analytical systems included tests of laboratory blank Tenax traps and blank water samples, and the determination of calibration equation, measurement precision, method detection limit (MDL), and recovery. The number of chemicals varied according to the product categories, ranging from 4 for the product category of bleaches to 12 for the product categories of air fresheners and nail color removers. For all product categories, the emission composition and concentrations varied broadly according to product. It is noteworthy that most household products emit limonene: 19 of 25 cleaning products; 5 of 6 deodorizers; 1 of 3 pesticides; 3 of 3 color removers; and 4 of 5 polishes. It was suggested that the use of household products sold in Korea could elevate the formation of secondary toxic pollutants in indoor environments, by the reaction of limonene with ozone, which entered indoor environments or might be generated by indoor sources such as electronic air cleaning devices and copying machines.

  • This study reviews studies that used skin temperature in order to establish an emotion evaluation protocol based on skin temperature for home appliances. A survey of skin temperature evaluation papers was conducted by the following five stages: (1) keyword search, (2) title screening, (3) abstract screening, (4) full paper screening, and (5) relevance evaluation. Selected papers were reviewed for: purpose, recruitment criteria of participants, the number of participants, apparatus, procedure, measures, analysis methods, and major findings. Thermistor sensors and thermography are used for the measurement of skin temperature. Skin temperature sensors are attached to 4 - 10 locations on the body and their mean of skin temperature is calculated by Ramanatan's 4-point or Hardy & Dubois's 7-point method. Semantic differential (SD) method and thermography measuring facial surface temperature have been used for emotion evaluation. The SD method provides a set of adjective pairs related to a product and evaluates changes in emotion from the use of the product. The range of facial surface analyzed is defined in the thermal image and temperature changes before and after the evaluation are analyzed. The evaluation items of home appliances include form, color, material, aesthetics, satisfaction, novelty, convenience, pleasantness, and excellence. Many existing emotion studies using skin temperature do not apply physiological and psychological methods. This study provides basic data to establish a skin temperature and emotion evaluation protocol by examining literature for skin temperature and evaluation of sensitivity.

  • 소프트웨어 관련 R&D 사업의 결과의 성공여부를 판단하는 기준으로 다양한 정량지표를 많이 사용하고 있으나, 어떠한 정량지표를 선정하는 것이 적절한지에 대한 판단은 다소 어려운 부분이 있다. 본 논문에서는 소프트웨어 개발의 정량적 평가지표 선정에 기준을 제공하기 위해 소프트웨어 품질 수준의 표준으로 활용되고 있는 ISO/IEC25023를 활용하여 소프트웨어 제품 개발의 정량적 평가지표 생성프로세스를 제안한다. 제안 프로세스는 2단계로 구성되어 있다. 첫 번째 단계에서는 ISO/IEC25023 표준규격의 품질특성과 부특성을 도출하고, 두 번째 단계에서는 1단계 결과인 품질특성과 부특성에 부합하는 평가지표 가이드를 도출한다. 제안하는 정량적 평가지표 생성 프로세스는 소프트웨어 개발 프로젝트의 특성에 맞는 정량적 평가지표 선정에 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다.

  • 최근 스마트폰을 대상으로 하는 해킹 피해가 증가하는 가운데 이로 인한 사용자들의 스마트폰 보안에 대한 불안감이 커지고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 불안을 낮추기 위한 방안으로 모바일 안티 바이러스를 사용하는 것은 좋은 방법 중의 하나이다. 하지만 사용자들은 모바일 안티바이러스 성능과 기능에 대해 알 수 있는 방법이 많지 않다. 매년 모바일 안티바이러스 제품에 대한 성능평가를 진행하여 이를 공개해 주는 인증 기관이 존재하나 이런 기관들은 테스트 방법에 대한 세부 시험평가 항목과 자세한 결과를 공개하지 않는다. 그리고 이전 품질평가 연구들은 모바일 안티바이러스 제품 평가에는 적합하지 않은 평가 기준이 존재하거나 검증이 미흡하여 최신 모바일 안티바이러스 평가에는 적절하지 않다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 최신 모바일 안티바이러스 평가에 적합한 세부적인 모바일 안티바이러스 평가지표를 수립하고 이를 국내외 10종의 모바일 안티바이러스 제품에 적용하여 수립한 평가지표의 유효성을 검증하였다.

  • 최근 생체인식 분야는 IT 분야의 보안기술과 함께 빠르게 진전되어 왔다. 현재 생체인식의 중요성이 인식되면서 국내외 생체인식 소프트웨어 시장이 급격히 증가하고 있는 추세이다 이에 따라 생체인식 소프트웨어의 고신뢰성과 고품질 소프트웨어의 요구가 증대되고 있다. 생체인식 소프트웨어의 품질인증을 위해서는 평가항목 및 평가기준이 마련되어 있어야 한다 본 논문에서는 생체인식 소프트웨어의 품질요구와 시험에 관한 표준인 ISO/IEC 12119, 소프트웨어 제품평가를 위한 표준인 91뽀, 평가모듈의 구성을 위한 국제 표준인 ISO/IEC 14598-6을 기반으로 하여 생체인식 소프트웨어 시험을 위한 평가모듈을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 품질 평가모듈은 생체인식 소프트웨어 제품의 구성요소(제품설명서, 사용자문서, 프로그램과 데이터)를 대상으로 하고 있으므로 ISO/IEC 9126-3과 같은 소프트웨어 개발과정에서 적용 가능한 표준과 병행함으로써 소프트웨어의 품질 향상을 기대할 수 있다.

  • For rational human value judgement and evaluation, provision of clear evaluation data, objective value judgement criteria, and properly generalized methods are required. For instance, this is true for software quality evaluation, and the measure of software quality and the weighting method of evaluation target directly affect final decisions. However it is not easy to find a generalized method for the software quality evaluation or product selection, because of its complex characteristics. In this paper, we apply the qualitative preference method based on quantitative belief functions to find a general weighing method for the software quality evaluation. In particular, the qualitative preference method, in which the differentiated preference expression is possible, is conceptually expanded for general applications in future. For this purpose, we hierarchically differentiate the strong preference relation from the weak preference relation, and show an example of quantification of software quality evaluation on different applications, by comparing the qualitative preference method with AHP. We believe that the application domain of this method is not limited to the software quality evaluation and it is very useful to apply this results to other SE areas, e.g., metric selection with different views and riority determination of practices to be assessed in the SPICE.

  • The purpose of the study is to establish sustainability evaluation items that can be applied to enhance clothing sustainability practice. The sustainability evaluation items related to clothing by product category, use, and disposal were derived through literature review. In order to evaluate the validity of the derived evaluation items, preliminary survey and two questionnaires were conducted for experts, and the importance and the possibility of change were measured. As a result, 39 evaluation items were constructed. Among the 39 evaluation items, 26 items related to the use and disposal were evaluated for 10 weeks in the 20s and 30s female consumers in terms of practice. The results of the study are as follows: First, items that have a high degree of importance and possibility of change are the items that can minimize resource saving, recycling, and the emission of harmful substances. Second, the participants' perceptions, attitudes, and outcomes of practicing the evaluation items of the use and disposal phase were proved to be positively affected, and the possibility of reducing resource saving and environmental impacts was proved. The clothing sustainability practice played a positive and developmental role in real life, while changing from small things to pursuing newness. The vagueness of sustainability was changed to specific perceptions and behaviors through the practice of the evaluation items.
