| Abstract |
| The development of new media has brought about the emergence of new form of book called e-Book. In e-Book is contained a memo function that provides UI to users to take down notes of important contents of the book or their ideas. However, contrary to the fact that more people are using e-Books and the scope of its use is expanding, there seems to be a little interest in memo functions in terms of usage. The idea of a memo has been investigated, and the kinds of applications and electronic books often used these days within the country have been investigated through surveys. As well, comparative surveys and research have been implemented through questionnaires and usability tests to determine the memo functions installed in each application. These surveys have revealed people`s normal memo use and habits. Through this it was discovered that memo use, in terms of behavior and habits, is not reflected in e-book applications` memo GUI, and the need for more specialized usability tests on this point was deduced. Accordingly, specialized usability tests were implemented and results were deduced from frequency analysis as well as Anova analysis. Among the five e-book applications that were compared in the results, the iBook`s usability appeared the highest, and when GUI elements were compared, those that were most and least useful among the five applications could be deduced. |
