스마트기기의 확산에 따라 TV 이용 시간, 장소, 단말이 많아지면서 TV에 대한 기능의 확장 및 고품질화에 대한 기대도 높아지고 있다. 스마트폰의 경우 많은 이용자들이 더 이상 전화의 수단이 아닌 업무, 일상생활, 여가 활용의 필수적 수단으로 자리잡아가고 있다. 스마트TV 단말의 확산은 제조사들이 스마트TV 기능을 TV 단말에 탑재하는 비율을 증가시킴으로써 TV의 교체시장을 따라 확대될 것으로 보인다. TV 구매자들 중 특히, 신기술 수용의향이 높고 TV에 대한 관여도가 높은 소비자들을 선두로 스마트TV 시장은 확대될 것으로 보인다. 스마트TV 이용자들에 대한 조사 결과, 스마트TV에 대해 이런 기대를 하고 다양한 서비스를 이용하여 전반적인 만족도는 양호하게 나타났으나, 개별 서비스에 대한 만족도, 특히 스마트TV 앱스토어 이용 등 새로운 스마트TV 기능에 대한 만족도는 낮게 나타났다. 스마트TV 서비스 시장을 활성화하기 위해서는 이용자들의 기대를 충족시킬 수 있도록 기능과 서비스 품질을 높여야 하며 기존 방송서비스 사업자들과의 전략적인 협력 관계 조성이 필요할 것이다.

With the emergence of digital TV broadcasting, various channels are provided to a TV audience. But it is getting hard for the audience to find his or her preferred TV programs due to the huge number of TV channels. In order to mitigate the difficulty, TV broadcasting companies provide an electronic program guide (EPG), which is a digital guide to scheduled broadcast TV programs. However, it results in the information overload problem and the time-consuming problem since the number of TV channels and programs is gradually on the increase. In this paper, we design and develop a channel filtering system, which recommends a small number of channels by filtering TV channels based on the watching pattern of the TV audience. The channel filtering system does not require the replacement or upgrade of existing TV or set-top box. In addition, it increases usability by skipping the channels that broadcast the audience's non-preferred TV programs while the TV audience presses the channel up/down button.

Smart TV manufacturers have constructed automatic Smart TV execution environment for reducing cost of Smart TV testing. However, the conventional test methods still require high cost because of manual test script written by testers. Test scripts manully written have less reusability, and then less reusable scripts cannot be used for new TV models. In this paper, we propose constructing reusable test models for Smart TV and present a model-based Smart TV test script generation method using the modes. And we apply the method to NetCast Smart TV to confirm the effectiveness of enhancing reusability.

The purpose of this study was to identify effects of thinness promoting message from TV media on college women's appearance distortion. The subjects were 408 college women and survey was done from Aug 10 to 30. 2009. Most college women wanted their height to be taller and weight to be lighter than their actual height and weight, and preferred slimmer figures. Over half of college women enjoyed fashion related TV programs more than diet or plastic surgery related TV programs. College women were classified into 3 groups of TV heavy watcher, TV medium watcher, and TV light watcher according to TV watching time. TV heavy watchers wanted their figures to be slimmer and weight to be lighter than other groups, and were affected by thinness promoting message from TV media more. TV heavy watchers of thinness promoting message related programs showed a tendency of distorting their body more and tried to agree with those TV programs more. Especially, college women agreed with plastic surgery related TV programs more than fashion or diet related TV programs. TV media producers should keep in mind those side-effects and try to show more universal and diverse figures to TV watchers.

Because smart televisions (TVs) have various and innovative functions that are different from traditional TVs, consumers are front with a complex decision-making problem when they want to buy a best TV among alternatives made by many TV makers. TV manufactures have developed and announced different types of smart TV models and they need a comparative study for evaluating their characteristics. In this paper, we suggest the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) method for deciding the best smart TVs regarding many selection criteria. The method provides a decision support for consumers who like to purchase a smart TV. We describe criteria affecting the smart TV selection through a literature review and suggest a user testing method in order to derive accurate judgments from consumers. Using the Expert Choice software package, we show a an numerical example how the priority of smart TVs are computed.

Latest Smart TV is rapidly increasing in prevalence. Smart-TV can provide reserve-service, training-service, and game service to user. Smart-TV need standard API for user requested app to run it. In this case, the cracker can run Malicious apps or user-request contents to modify it by analysis of the vulnerability of the smart-TV platform. Therefore, we modify the extension API on Smart-TV to prevent hacking. Our proposed research method can support that device is illegal in Smart-TV device can prevent unauthorized access.
