Today, the use of RFID is extended in medical, circulation market, manufacture, security field, etc. Besides, the book-lending and the attendance management system are on an increasing trend in the use of RFID. The developed dormitory management system is composed of a support program, a room management program, a manager program, and a mobile program etc.. In the support program a student(or a manager) can see his(or all member's) entrance and exit history. The room management program decides whether a student can enter the dormitory or not and manages the use of the power after inquiring a RFID's input tag information into database server. The manager program is able to input and modify a room state and the fixtures information in the room required to operate the room management program, to set up and retrieve a student's entrance and exit information and a room state information. The mobile program enables a manager to check student's identity whether he is in or out, and the manager can know the personal information of being out in detail.

While the broadband network and multimedia technology are being developed, the commercial market of digital contents as well as using IPTV has been widely spreading. In this background, Time-Shift system is developed for requirement of multimedia. This system is independent of Time but is not independent of Place and Occasion. For solving these problems, in this paper, we propose the TPO(Time, Place, Occasion)-Shift system for mobile multimedia devices. The profile that can be applied to the mobile multimedia devices is much different from that of the settop-box. And general mobile multimedia devices could not have such large memories that is for multimedia data. So it is important to continuously store and manage those multimedia data in limited capacity with mobile device's profile. Therefore we compose the basket in a way using defined time unit and manage these baskets for effective buffer management. In addition, since the file name of basket is made up to include a basket's time information, we can make use of this time information as DTS(Decoding Time Stamp). When some multimedia content is converted to be available for portable multimedia devices, we are able to compose new formatted contents using such DTS information. Using basket based buffer systems, we can compose the contents by real time in mobile multimedia devices and save some memory. In order to see the system's real-time operation and performance, we implemented the proposed TPO-Shift system on the basis of mobile device, MS340. And settop-box are designed by using directshow player under Windows Vista environment. As a result, we can find the usefulness and real-time operation of the proposed systems.

This paper is experimental study to inspect effects of problem solving ability and programming interest using Pico Cricket of the educational robot. The programming learning which is regarded as the very core of information subject improves problem solving ability. But the programming learning does not display the effects properly, because the programming learning studies a grammar manual. The educational robot has the advantage to approach the programming learning easily for containing entertainment. The Pico Cricket of the educational robot has the advantage not to induce competition but to compose a cooperative learning environment. Also, the Pico Cricket is able to be had interest of programming learning to girl students, because the Pico Cricket is able to suggest life-centered and cooperative contents which girl students like. Accordingly, This paper is study which the programming learning using Pico Cricket affects the problem solving ability and programming interest and men and women's comparison study.
