Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify whether self-directed fundamental nursing practice using a smart phone affected self-efficacy, practice satisfaction, and skill competency of nursing students. Methods: This was a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design. The participants were 40 children in the experimental group and 40 in the control group. In experimental group, self-directed fundamental nursing practice using a smart phone was given to nursing students. Data for this study was collected from 25 March 2015 to 10 April 2015. The data were analyzed using SAS 21.0. Results: In self-efficacy and skill competency, there were no statistically significant differences between the experimental group and control group. In practice satisfaction, there were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group. Conclusion: The results indicate that self-directed fundamental nursing practice using smartphone video is effective in practice satisfaction. Therefore, this intervention can be utilized in nursing practice education as an effective educational device.

Most smartphone use virtual keypads based on touch-pad. The virtual keypads often make typographical errors because of the physical limitations of device such as small screen and limited input methods. To resolve this problem, many similar word-finding methods have been studied. In the paper, we propose an edit distance method (a well-known string similarity measure) that is modified to consider various types of virtual keypads. The proposed method effectively covers typographical errors in various keypads by converting an input string into a physical key sequence and by reflecting characteristics of virtual keypads to edit scores. In the experiments with various keypads, the proposed method showed better performances than a typical edit distance method.

In this paper, we develop a new system to estimate the step count for a smartphone user. The system analyzes data obtained from the accelerometer, magnetic sensor, and gyroscope of an android smartphone to extract pattern information of human steps. We conduct an experiment and evaluation to confirm that the proposed system successfully estimates the number of steps with 96% accuracy when hand-held and 95.5% accuracy when in-pocket. In addition, we found that detection errors were caused by human motions such as touching the screen, shaking the device up and down, sitting up and sitting down, and waving the phone around.

According to rapid advent of the smartphone, software technologies which have been used on PCs are being introduced into the smartphone. This paper introduces an implementation of an application software under the Android platform using morphing and warping technology. It composes two face images with morphing technology and also transforms an original face image using warping technology for fun. For this, the image is triangulated by Delaunay Triangulation based on control points which are created by simple LCD touches on the mobile device. The implementation case of this paper will be a good reference for the development of applications like games using morphing and warping technologies over Android platforms.

As the services of ubiquitous environment has become accessible everywhere, it has been developed in various fields. Additionally interests in the u-Healthcare has sharply increased. In this paper, the BAN (Body Area Network) has been applied through ECG sensor and Zigbee communication of the existing ubiquitous sensor network environment to measure one's vital signs. The measured vital signs were then implemented in a system that enabled doctors and specialists to monitor by using 3G(WCDMA) communication. Furthermore, a location search device has been designed using the Smartphone's GPS modules to locate patients in the case of an emergency. The data field definition and designed system was based on the Smartphone's iPhone platform which has been in the spotlight for the previous months.

Before Smartphone releases, playing music form previous cellphone is very limited, so we need mp3 player instead. However, when Smartphone releases, a function of playing multimedia became one of the important things in Samrtphone including all functions of mp3 player. Even though it is easier to use since you can play music and multimedia in one device, it still has problem issues on the sound quality. This thesis will discuss about functions of EQ from Smartphone music players. After that, we will to achieve high fidelity sound through balance adjustment of Right Mark Audio Analyzer program.

In this paper, a 32-variable pulse position modulation (32-VPPM) scheme is proposed to support a red-green-blue light-emitting-diode (RGB-LED)-based optical camera communication (OCC) system. Our proposed modulation scheme is designed to enhance the OCC data transmission rate, which is targeted for the wearable biomedical data monitoring system. The OCC technology has been utilized as an alternative solution to the radio frequency (RF) wireless system for long-term self-healthcare monitoring. Different biomedical signals, such as electrocardiograms, photoplethysmograms, and respiration signals are being monitored and transmitted wirelessly from the wearable biomedical device to the smartphone receiver. A common 30 frames per second (fps) smartphone camera with a CMOS image sensor is used to record a transmitted optical signal. Moreover, the overall proposed system architecture, modulation scheme, and data demodulation are discussed in this paper. The experimental result shows that the proposed system is able to achieve > 9 kbps using only a common smartphone camera receiver.

Smartphone, tablet PC, notebook, such as the Internet banking and electronic commerce using a mobile device, as well as process and to their work. While going to high availability and convenience of mobile devices castle, SNS, letters, using an email Smishing financial fraud and leakage of personal information such as crime has occurred many. Smishing smartphone accidents increased sharply from 2013, MERS infection cases, landmine provocative events, such as the delivery of Thanksgiving has occurred cleverly using social engineering techniques. In this paper, i analyze the trends in Smishing hacking attacks on mobile devices since 2014. With regard to social issues, it analyzes the process of hacking attacks Smishing leading to financial fraud to mobile users.

Among the currently used knowledge-based authentication methods for smartphones, text and graphic-based authentication methods, such as PIN and pattern methods, use a display unit and a touch function of the display unit for input/output of secret information. Recently released smartphone form factors are trying to transform into various forms, away from the conventional bar and slate types because of the material change of the display unit used in the existing smartphone and the increased flexibility of the display unit. However, as mentioned in the study of D. Choi [1], the structural change of the display unit may directly or indirectly affect the authentication method using the display unit as the main input/output device for confidential information, resulting in unexpected security vulnerabilities. In this paper, we analyze the security vulnerabilities of the current mobile user authentication methods that is applied atypical form factor. According to the analysis results, it seems that the existing display-dependent mobile user authentication methods do not consider emerging security threats at all. Furthermore, it is easily affected by changes in the form factor of smartphones. Finally, we propose countermeasures for security vulnerabilities expected when applying conventional authentication methods to atypical form factor-based smartphones.

This paper proposes a message transfer application using smartphone with NFC(Near Field Communication) and GCM(Goolge Cloud Messaging) technology for prevention of personal information leakage. In implementing for the proposed system, we design a NFC-based vehicle status alerts service which make it possible to communicate with smartpone message without phone-number between a car driver and an unspecified person. The application provides message communication mechanism without exposing the real phone number, using the NFC tag written with the driver's smartphone device ID and GCM push messages. Through the evaluation result of the actual implemented application, the proposed system can be efficient technology in protection for leakage of personal information such as personal phone- number in daily life.
