This study presents an investigation into game patterns prominent in mobile games. The term "pattern" used in this study is inherited by the concept used in "A study for user experience of the game : based on the pattern type and the pattern type attribute of the game space" by Gwak E Sac(2016). There is, however, a difference between them. While the previous study limited the gamers' experience patterns to "game spaces" in the use of "pattern," the present study expanded the scope of gamers' experience patterns to the "mobile game market." Although the mobile game market is growing rapidly, there is a tendency of uniformity in mobile games due to the reduction of development time and the destruction of genres in the development of mobile games. Recognizing this situation, the investigator summarized experience patterns in the current mobile game market into: repeat familiar game play, valuable game action, value and consumption of time and preference and selection of game.

As the average load factor of High-Speed Rail (HSR) trains increased up to 98%, it caused uncomfortable crowdedness in the cabin and deteriorated the level of service to the HSR users. In this paper, we estimated the willingness-to-pay (WTP) of the HSR users for mitigating the crowdedness in the cabin. The contingent valuation method based on the stated preference data was used and the tobit model was applied for the estimation of WTP. It can be concluded that WTP for mitigating the crowdedness in the HSR trains is proportional to the congestion level of train and income level of user. Males, first-class users, not-assigned ticket users, and monthly pass users have relatively higher WTPs, while homemakers, travelers in weekends, commuters and leisure travelers have relatively lower values. The results can provide the fundamental information to estimate the benefits of mitigating crowdedness or the magnitude of governmental subsidy to railway operators for additional introduction of HSR trains.

오늘날 모바일 기기가 갖는 역할이 다양해짐과 동시에 모바일 플랫폼에서의 사용자 인터페이스(User Interface, UI)에 대한 연구 또한 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이는 전통적인 데스크탑 플랫폼에서의 정보에 대한 일반적인 접근 방법이 모바일 기기에 적용하기에는 적절하지 않기 때문이며, 이는 모바일 기기의 제한된 스크린 크기, 부자연스러운 상호작용 방식, 그리고 기기와 관련된 기술적인 다른 요인들과 관련된다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 휴대폰, PDA, 스마트폰과 같이 작은 화면을 가진 모바일 기기에서 제시되는 메뉴를 탐색할 때 효과적인 메뉴 형식과 페이징 형식이 무엇인지 알아보고자 하였다. 메뉴 형식은 모바일 기기에서 일반적으로 많이 사용되는 열거형(list) 메뉴와 격자형(grid) 메뉴의 두 가지로 제시하였고, 페이징 형식은 한 번에 한 줄씩 화면 하단에서 위로 이동하는 스크롤(scrolling) 방식과 한 번에 한 화면 전체가 위로 이동하는 페이지 간(page-to-page) 이동 방식의 두 가지로 제시하였다. 실험 1 에서는 한 수준의 깊이를 가진 메뉴에서 메뉴 형식과 페이징 형식에 따른 탐색 과제 수행을 측정한 결과, 열거형 메뉴보다 격자형 메뉴에서 사용자들의 메뉴 탐색 수행이 유의미하게 빠르며, 사용자의 만족도 또한 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 페이징 형식에 따른 메뉴 탐색 수행 시간과 선호도에는 유의미한 차이점이 없었고, 메뉴 형식과 페이징 형식간의 상호작용 또한 나타나지 않았다. 실험 2 의 결과, 두 수준의 깊이를 가진 메뉴에서는 페이징 방식이 메뉴 탐색 정확도에 미치는 유의미한 주효과가 있었다. 메뉴 탐색 수행 시간과 주관적 만족도는 실험 1 과 같게 나타났다. 이는 메뉴 형식과 페이징 방법에 따라 사용자의 수행과 선호도가 차이가 있음을 시사한다.

This study aims to analyze the cases of storage space outside housing unit and propose the activation plan. The issue of storage in residential complex has continued to be reported. This is more salient due to the recent preference trend for small houses, the constant increase of living goods and the limitation of the available space inside housing unit. Although more apartment houses are trying to have individual storage in the exterior space to address these issues, there is still a paucity of the related studies and more studies are required. In this study, we conducted on-site investigation and user interview of each case to propose active usage of the storage space outside housing unit. Result of this study shows that the most crucial factor to improve is 'accessibility' in order to activate the storage space. Storage room should be located close to each household or the individual parking space. The second factor is the size and the structure of the storage room. The sufficient space for keeping and taking large objects out are required. The front of the storage room should have a clogged structure to insure privacy. The third is the provision of suitable support programs such as the system that occupants can check remotely what items are in their storage rooms, garage sale, laundry service, auto cleaning system and rental program. Those programs are required for efficient management and activation of space. Another requirement is to improve environmental factors which include maintenance of optimal temperature and humidity, automatic ventilation system, control of individual lights, and security enhancement. Based on the results of the survey, we provide basic data which can be used for practical space planning to activate exterior storage space of the housing unit. Further surveys are required to develop this study by obtaining more data for generalization.

Illumination in church building has played an important role in making workship space more suitable for divine service. As time has changed, however, the worship space of Protestantism is no longer somber and reverent, but changing into practical and multipurpose space with bright and colorful image. This study investigates intensity of illumination of worship space during day and night respectively and figures out the change of psychological change of congregation in accordance with brightness and color temperature in worship space in order to find out preference and look into the usage and change of illumination in recent Protestantism in compliance with the needs of the time and influence. Then, result value is to be compared to Korean Standard intensity of illumination. Also, the correlation between intensity of illumination and color temperature by Kruithof's curve theory is used to identify the comfortableness of the worship space during day and nigh. And it is a common task of space designers and pastors to map out the worship space in terms of illumination suitable for its own purpose with even more modern and Korean sensibility and to create spiritual space for worshippers by collecting opinions from congregation, the main user of the space. With appropriate usage of illumination in Protestantism worship space, the atmosphere and purpose of worship can be enhanced.
