The Purpose of this study is to explore and analyse ways of enhancing the effectiveness of reference service through reference evaluation. Marketing research technique combined with pre-evaluation theory was applied in this study to find out information for practice the service based on current concept of reference service. Aims and results of this study can be summarised as follows: First, the evaluation of effectiveness of reference service should be conducted for the purpose of finding out the ways of increasing user's satisfaction. Second, the policy evaluation was understood as the appropriated evaluation concept. The policy evaluation in principle coincides with reference service in sense that the satisfaction of public should have priority and hence be the criterion of the evaluation. Third, marketing research based on recently developed 'marketing concept', which concentrates all its efforts to meet user's demand and attempt to acquire the information for better marketing management of non-profit organization such as library, is examined to find out the evaluation method practically applicable to the pre-evaluation of reference service. In this study , conjoint analysis was adopted as the method of pre-evaluation about reference service. The Reference Room of the Central Library Yonsei University, was selected as the arget sample to find out the expected condition for the maximization of the user's satisfaction from the reference service. Based on this example study, the analysis indicates as the most desirable combination for reference service in terms of the user's satisfaction is following condition: the younger librarian with aimable personality who displays willingness In his/her assistance, plus as the method of reference service, sufficient and practical introduction to the reference materials available, plus immediate and satisfactory result of the service, and finally a library equipped with inter-library use system.

Agro-Meteorological Information Service (AMIS) network has been established since 2001 by Rural Development Administration (RDA) in Korea, and has provided access to current and historical weather data with useful information for agricultural activities. AMIS network includes 158 automated weather stations located mostly in farm region, with planning to increase by 200 stations until 2017. Agrometeorological information is disseminated via the web site (http://weather.rda.go.kr) to growers, researchers, and extension service officials. Our services will give enhanced information from observation data (temperature, precipitation, etc.) to application information, such as drought index, agro-climatic map, and early warning service. AMIS network of RDA will help the implementation of an early warning service for weather risk management.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality of service that affects satisfaction of special library users and to suggest ways to improve the function and role of special library. The data were collected by survey and interview method conducted with 111 library users in 6 local research institute using modified questionnaires based on LibQUAL+. The results revealed that human quality factor had more influence on library service satisfaction than space and information quality factor. Also, there were statistically significant influence between library service satisfaction and three sub service factors, such as service attitude, space convenience, and information usability. The interviewers indicated problems of special library service in lack of data, inactivation of digital data, space problem, data sharing problem, and lack of experts. Finally this study proposed several suggestions to improve service quality of special library of local autonomous entity research institution.

This paper describes a modeling of service composition manager based on TINA (Telecommunication Information Networking Architecture). The Service composition function is mainly motivated by the desire to easily generate new service using existing services from retailers or $3^{rd}$-party service providers. The TINA-C specification for the service composition does not include the detailed composition procedure and its object models. In this paper, we propose a model of components for the service composition, which adapts a static composition feature in a single provider domain. To validate the proposed modeling, we implemented prototype service composition function, which combines two multimedia services; a VOD service and a VCS service. As a result, we obtain the specification of the detailed composition architecture between a retailer domain and a $3^{rd}$-party service provider domain.

Because websites contain personal information such as address, contact information, etc., Attention about website security is required. This research is a study to examine that user's security awareness has a moderating effect on the relationship between website quality factors and trust, information and service value on websites holding personal information. As a result of questionnaire survey of the secondary school students and parents 635 people, website quality factors excluding usability positively affected trust of the website. Information quality on the website had a positive influence on service value and service value also affected trust. User's security awareness about the website has a moderating effect on the relationship between information and service value. The result of this research means that users are not continuously using websites with a low security level. Based on the results of this research, we presented theoretical and practical suggestions for the stakeholders of websites.

Currently, there are many subscriber access networks: PSTN, ADSL, Cellular Network, IMT200 and so on. To these service providers that provide above network service, it is important that they authenticate and authorize legal subscribers and account for their usage. At present, There exist the several protocols that Support AAA(Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) service : RADIUS, Diameter, TACACS+. Nowadays, RADIUS has used for AAA service widely. It has been extended to support other access network environment. So, we extend RADIUS to support environment of Mobile IPv6. Mobile IPv6 uses IPsec as a security mechanism, basically. But, IPsec is a heavy security technology for small, portable, mobile device. Especially, it is serious at IKE, the subset of IPsec. IKE is a key distribution protocol that distributes the key to the endpoints of IPsec. In t:lis paper, we extend RADIUS to support environment of Mobile IPv6 and simplify the IKE phase of IPsec by AAA system distributing the keys by using its security communication channel. Namely, we propose the key distribution method for IPsec SA establishment between mobile node and home agent. The suggested method was anticipated to be effective at low-power, low computing deyice. Finally, end users feel the faster authentication.

The Cell Broadcast Service is a public service that delivers information on disaster situations to mobile phones. In Korea, where mobile phone penetration is high, disaster information delivery through Cell Broadcast Service has a higher preference than other information delivery methods. However, since it consists only of text messages, disaster information is not delivered normally to the information vulnerable class compared to the general public. To compensate for this, a disaster information delivery application using Cell Broadcast Service was proposed and research was conducted. If research like this paper continues and Cell Broadcast Service become a service that transmits various disaster-related information considering the information vulnerable at home and abroad, it will provide the effect of reducing damage to disasters through rapid and accurate response.

The goal of this study is to improve the competitiveness of professional librarians in society. To this end, we analyzed domestic and international LIS curriculum, determined demand from field librarians through a survey, carried out job analysis by library types, and developed an operating model for LIS curriculum by synthesizing all of these results. Finally, we suggested a course of study for civil service librarians based on this model. As a result, the six required courses for civil service librarians are: Introduction to Library and Information Science, Information Organization, Information Services (Reference and Information Services), Library Management, Information Retrieval, and Field Work. The four core courses for the civil service concentration are: Collection Development, Information Sources by Subjects, Public Library Management, and Digital Libraries. Suggested electives best suited to this career path include Using Web Resources, Information Literacy, Information Services in Culturally Diverse Communities, Library Marketing, Libraries and Cultural Programs, Reading Guidance, Library History, Small Library Management, Studies in Library Buildings, Library Cooperation, Managing Digital Collections, and Information and Communication in a Digital Age.
