The purpose of this study is to draw employee support program at the company level through field survey of foreign laborers' satisfaction level of working life. To analyze the factors that determine working life satisfaction, regression analysis was conducted. Satisfaction level of working hours(t=2.469), living environment(t=2.140), post offices/banks (t=3.024) showed a statistically significant. Also these variables, working hours, living environment, post office/banks are verified to be very important for improving the level of their working life. Through these findings we can understand that employee support activities, providing user-guide of bank and post office, compliance with standards for working hours, improvement of the living conditions (accommodation, meals, etc.), the leisure time program support, the children care support and active utilization of foreign workers and strengthen the educational program, are necessary to improve the satisfaction level of foreign laborers' working life in Korea. It is recommended that managers need to recognize that careful consideration of living and working condition could contribute to stable settlement and increase working life satisfaction for the foreign workers at company level.

In the new generation of Web, commonly called "Web 2.0", blogging has facilitated the publishing information or his/her opinion on the web. Various blog retrieval algorithms have been proposed to search for blogs more effectively. However, actually keyword-based searching or link-analysis blog ranking system cannot satisfy the user's requirement. In this paper, we suggest a topic-based weighting blog retrieval system in which the links between blog writings and searching words are considered to improve the search results. Our system extracts topics from each blog and weights them much higher than other guide words. In the comparison with other systems, we see that the proposed topic-base system has better recall rate of search results.

The purpose of this study is to provide library users with the effective way of use on academic library and its collection. In order to achieve this purpose the menu structure and question contents appearing at the FAQs of academic library Website were analyzed. And also, guidelines for effective use of a university library via FAQ at different access stages were proposed. It is expected that the result of this study can help both a Web designer to the development and implementation of efficient library FAQs and a creator of a library use guidebook.

The most good library's service will be accomplished for the system of user centralized and we can't expect the development of school library without student's use. This research has been designed for an attempt to know why students don't use the school library. The methods employed to achieve the purpose of this study are (1) To establish some tentative factors affecting the school library's use or nonuse (2) to get necessary data, a questionnaire was made according to the tentative factors. A questionnaire was sent to teacher and students in the 4 sample high schools in Seoul. The followings are the am lysed results. (1) School library's collection are poor. (2) The school library's equipment and position are bad. (3) The guide or use instruction of school library are not carried out. (4) Teacher librarian can not reach the demand of the society and the atmosphere of library are not good. (5) The books are not lent to students and the circulation procedure are complicated. (6) Our country's educational programme does not organize to promote using the school library. (7) Teachers' knowledge for using the library are poor. (8) Entrance examination of the university disturbed to use the school library. (9) The school administration are not enough to understand about the school library.

Continuously expanding information technology is changing the world in which our students live. Many schools are using this new technology and many schools are contemplating the use of this new technology. The ways in which teachers and students work, and their dependence on information technology, have evolved significantly-increasing the importance of getting the information technology infrastructure right in schools. Yet, all too often, most of schools are unable to take full advantage of the opportunities that information technology offers since those designing and fitting out school buildings have failed to consider information technology adequately. This study is to guide the physical design of practical networked schools. In this paper, we present the ways to achieve architectural solutions to the manifold problems associated with accommodation of information technology in schools. The practical guidelines for planning and managing information technology infrastructure-that is, the spaces and services provided in the school building to support the user' information technology requirements-are offered. Adherence to these guidelines will provide a substantial degree of adapability and flexibility in school buildings.

As the number of broadcasting channels and programs increases rapidly, the importance of personalized service has been emphasized. In this paper, we propose a practical framework of metadata broadcasting to provide personalized service according to user preferences and various terminal/network conditions. First, we present an overall system architecture of a metadata broadcasting system and then propose several core technologies (particularly in the parts of metadata authoring, metadata encoding, and metadata-based personalized content consumption). For interoperability, the proposed solution is designed to be compliant with the relevant standards of the TV-Anytime Forum, MPEG-7 Systems, and MPEG-2 Systems. Considering a home network environment, we also propose a metadata-based content adaptation scheme. Each component technology has been implemented individually, integrated into an end-to-end prototype broadcasting system, and successfully tested with a set of personalized service scenarios that are also developed in this study.

Because in the amusement park, a number of people use various vehicles facilities complicated arraigned, it needs an effective way to search optimal path to reduce errors in touring a park. Particularly, when choosing a facility, searching a waiting time-based path as well as shortest path is important. This paper presents a path recommendation system which minimizes total park tour time based on tour distance and waiting time through GPS and wireless internet. This system can also recommend customized tour path based on the characteristics of user members as well as a simple shortest path.

Globally, medical tourism draws attention as a national growth engine industry, and is actively expanding. Current medical tourism leans towards large hospitals making it difficult to attract new users. Users collect the information for medical tourism through various paths in order to receive medical consultations and customized tour services. To expand medical tourism to small and medium sized hospitals, it is necessary to have customized medical consultations, tours and interpreter services, which are the key elements of medical tourism. This paper suggests services that users can use to match medical consultations and find tours and interpreters they want at the same time. This paper suggests ways to provide integrated services based on the information experienced by users, combining the required items from the perspectives of each user, hospital and guide. To match the content provided by hospitals and guides with experience information from users systematically, this study suggests the convergence plan for a service model that can match the experience information between users and hospitals, between users and guides and between hospitals and guides systematically by operating the data in the universal container.

This study aims at developing subject guides for the disabled to provide service effectively. Subject guide and service models are developed on the basis of reference, case study, and user requests analysis and information types in areas are determined. Information types for collecting and building information resources are classified into types are subordinate and also metadata by information types are developed. Subject guides based on customized services contain information, disability type, service target, life-cycle, media type, and organizations.
