There are relatively inactive discussions about applying ubiquitous technology (uT) to traditional marketplace. If u-Market which affords to promote customer shopping convenience and on/offline shopping experience is implemented, then traffic of visiting customers as well as the revenue of the market will increase. Ultimately, it will lead to revitalizing traditional market. For this purpose, we developed a realistic u-Market service scenario with restricted uT considering spatial limitation and poor infrastructure of the physical marketplace. Based on u-Market service scenario, we have empirically investigated the determinants of u-Market service acceptance of the actual customers of traditional marketplace. We hope the results of this study will help in improvement of u-Market system development and service feasibility.

This paper proposes both a novel tactile human-computer interface method and an improved algorithm for the wearable PC. Under the condition of Ubiquitous computing, the next generation PC aims at effective representation and integration of colors, brightness of light. sound, odor, taste and feelings. Also, it aims at human being centered man-machine interface. In spite of various functions of the wearable PC, for the convenience of possessing, hardware platform for the wearable PC should be small-sized and light weighted one. The main problems of making small sized PC are user interfaces, like keyboard, monitor and so on. The traditional user interfaces have critical limitations for reducing their size. In this paper, we propose a novel user input method and improved algorithm to constructing small sized, light weighted and wearable PC. And, we verify the effectiveness of suggested method and algorithm compared to the traditional algorithm.

With the introduction of the computer, convenience at work may have increased but flexibility decreased along with a tendency for humans to become secondary to computers with regards to work schedules. As it exists, from entering the department of radiology to completion of imaging requires a great deal of time and difficulties in understanding the imaging process adds to patient dissatisfaction. Since clinics use RFID bars to track patient locations at comprehensive medical testing centers, departments of radiology may apply RFID and Worklist at the core of the OCS system in order to increase work efficiency and improve work flow. As a result of developing an RFID and Worklist centered OCS program, there was a vast improvement in patient satisfaction and work flow. Theses results are the basis of an RFID system that in the future may be connected to PACS and other systems with an intergrated Worklist. There is a need to realize a plan the can offer ubiquity to hospital work.

Recently, the university environment has been changed faster than before. It has based on university environment and IT infrastructure. Especially, most of local university has devised development plan such as improving the image and competitive power of campus. Digital, Electronic and Mobile Campus has increased the importance as people realize that the use of technology can improve the learning process. U-Campus of latest IT Technology need a service environment of which the practical use is possible through IT analysis of the members. For example u-campus setup of mobile offers the convenience to the members. We expected thing to use much, even though actual condition investigation about IT environment of the user is insufficient. The inconvenience of mobile could not be activated to the service for proactive use. The importance became the result about u-campus service setup of a company and university center. This service environment cannot offer specific information of center members for which the service implements. In this paper, we studied about members centralized u-campus model through u-recruit, campus information mobile service on university.

Recently the navigation service and LBS (Location based Services) using map supports much information services on mobile terminal. Also Internet Web sites support user much information. But, the user has the difficulty for acquiring the service and the various information based on map because of searching the many Internet sites. Accordingly, this paper supports a convergence information service model of various culture, education, tourism, sport and traffic for accessing synthesizing information based on map. And we design and implement this model using 공개 API. We present a convergence information service model of culture, tourism, sport and bus line information form tour destination and cultural place of Jeju province using the model. Additionally, we develop this service model using apache web server on Linux environment, PHP and JavaScript, MySQL database and Map 공개 API. As this service model supports a convenience action of culture and tourism for Jeju islanders and tourists.

The adrenergic receptor beta 2 (ADRB2) plays a role in various physiological responses of the muscle to exercise, such as contraction and relaxation. Given its important role in muscle function, we investigated the structure of the horse ADRB2 gene and its expression pattern after exercise to determine if it can serve as a putative biomarker for recovery. Evolutionary analyses using synonymous and non-synonymous mutation ratios, were compared with other species (human, chimpanzee, mouse, rat, cow, pig, chicken, dog, and cat), and revealed the occurrence of positive selection in the horse ADRB2 gene. In addition, expression analyses by quantitative polymerase chain reaction exhibited ubiquitous distribution of horse ADRB2 in various tissues including lung, skeletal muscle, kidney, thyroid, appendix, colon, spinal cord and heart, with the highest expression observed in the lung. The expression of ADRB2 in skeletal muscle was significantly up-regulated about four folds 30 minutes post-exercise compared to pre-exercise. The expression level of ADRB2 in leukocytes, which could be collected with convenience compared with other tissues in horse, increased until 60 min after exercise but decreased afterward until 120 min, suggesting the ADRB2 expression levels in leukocytes could be a useful biomarker to check the early recovery status of horse after exercise. In conclusion, we identified horse ADRB2 gene and analyzed expression profiles in various tissues. Additionally, analysis of ADBR2 gene expression in leukocytes could be a useful biomarker useful for evaluation of early recovery status after exercise in racing horses.

In today's brand apartment ads, the image of high-tech apartment seeking consumers' convenience thanks to the introduction of ubiquitous and the image of nature-friendly apartment stressing consumers' well-being life have become a main stream. However, it seems that there lacks differentiation in expressing ad images, except some brands. This may also be related to the matter of providing effective communication, which is the ultimate goal of advertisement. Therefore, to suggest the effective communication methods of brand apartment ads, this study semiologically translated first the images thai recent brand apartment ads present, and then in order to review whether these images are properly delivered to consumers, this study conducted the image survey for brand apartment ads with 123 subjects, who are the group of design professionals. As a result, the survey showed that, in the semiological translation of ad expression, meaning sharing is made when ad concept and ad image are semiologically consistent, and it showed that the realization of successful ad communication between advertisers and consumers is possible, which starts from this kind of meaning sharing. Based on the results of this study, we could know that the introduction of semiology into ad planning can be a logical judgment criterion to provide effective ad communication.
