Owing to the rapid development of gamification studies, more and more research started to consider involving game mechanics into instruction designs. Educational gamification introduced a new approach for impacting users' behaviors. Here, this study proposed the idea of figuring out the mechanism of how educational gamification impacts users' behavior. After reviewing behavior related educational gamification studies and the motivations of human behavior, this study analyzed the potential influencing factors based on the framework of the theory of planned behavior. According to the theoretical analysis, this article emphasized the significance of motivating users both intrinsically and extrinsically depends on specific cases. Then, users' attitude towards the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavior control were found having possibility in mediating educational gamification designs and users' behavior. Also, it was suggested that educational gamification designers need to adjust users' game flow experience and cognitive load properly in design practices. Limitations and future study recommendations of this article are presented in the end.

This paper presents the simulative performance of optical CDMA system incorporated with subcarrier multiplexing (SCM) technique. The system is designed based on the Recursive Combinatorial (RC) code in the Spectral amplitude coding (SAC) - OCDMA. SAC-OCDMA approaches is capable to reduce the effect of Multiple Access Interference (MAI) using code sequences with fixed in-phase cross correlation. The performance of this hybrid system is shown through simulative experiment results of bit error rate (BER) and eye patterns for various numbers of subcarrier channels and frequencies. The simulation is done using Optisys version 7.0. The simulation results shows decreasing the number of weight will produce better performance compared to increasing the number of weight. Increasing the number of weight will increase the spectral chips and makes the system more sensitive to the noise. For the weight = 3, the transmission distance is up to 9.5 km.

A large number of studies have shown that, the video traffic in the network has increased dramatically in the past several years, and it has already accounted for the most of the total traffic. What's more, the trend is predicted to continue to the foreseeable future. Therefore, to analyze the characteristics of video programs in the network is becoming increasingly significant and critical. In this paper, we summarize and analyze some important characteristics of the video program in the network, and then establish the suitable models to adapt them. According to the result, the network traffic can decrease greatly with the reasonable use of these characteristics, which leads to less network congestion, less network investment, less energy consumption, and then better user experience. The analysis results not only make the distribution and transmission of the video programs more efficient and economical, but also are helpful for the construction and development of the Internet. Overall, we are convinced that the results presented in this paper are very important and valuable to the whole network.

Reservation and monitoring of facilities are some of the regular activities in management of facilities in academic institutions. However, users have encountered some problems in reservation and monitoring activities such as identifying the available facilities that can be used, securing approval for request if signatories are not available or loss of documents due to manual processing. This paper proposes a new design for Facility Management System which is based on customer requirements. Using criteria analysis, technical specification alternatives were defined and the best option that will satisfy the customer requirements had been selected and incorporated in the design of the automated system. A prototype computer system was made and tested to a group of users for effectiveness. The results showed significant improvement in the reservation and monitoring processes in terms of the level of customer satisfaction.

Project Based Learning (PBL) is a teaching and learning method in which students solve real-world problems and gain knowledge and skills for actual problem-solving. Advanced Institute of Industrial Technology (AIIT) gives the master's degree based on the PBL activity, called AIIT PBL, to master course students. Most of the students in AIIT are business people, and hence the co-education of master course students and business people is an important topic for PBL educations. We present the co-education of master course students and business people by PBL in Education Network for Practical Information Technologies (enPiT) performed by Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology in the Japanese government. We introduce the AIIT enPiT curriculum and perform the PBL with master course students and business people. The effectiveness of our coeducation is evaluated in questionnaires. The answers to the questionnaires show that our co-education is effective and we learn three lessons.

In open source software (OSS) communities, volunteers collaborate and integrate expertise to develop the software online via the Internet in a decentralized, highly interactive and knowledge-intensive process. Development of qualified and secured software products relies mainly on the ability of OSS participants to acquire, refine and use new aspects of secure programming knowledge. Many OSS proponents believe that the open source innovation offers significant learning opportunities from its best practices. However, studies that specifically explore learning of software security in the context of open source development are scarce. This paper aims to empirically assess present knowledge sharing and learning about secure programming knowledge in the context of OSS communities utilized a socio-technical approach on OSS projects based on an ethnographic observation. Our motivation is not only to evaluate the knowledge sharing and learning mechanisms and the extent to which they may be viable and successful but also to gain insight into the security culture and project factors that affect learning processes of secure programming in OSS communities.

The study aims to develop a theoretical model to ascertain factors predicting Chinese preservice EFL teachers' acceptance of augmented reality (AR) mobile systems in their future language learning classrooms. Drawing on prior theoretical models related to the adoption of technology in educational context, seven salient theoretical constructs pertinent to individuals' intention to use augmented reality mobile systems were identified, which included perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitudes towards using AR mobile systems, technology self-efficacy, subjective norms, facilitating conditions, and technological pedagogical and content knowledge. Furthermore, a model was proposed by reviewing prior empirical evidence. The proposed model consists of four independent variables, three mediating variables, and one dependent variable. Based on the model, 13 hypotheses were formulated for next-step empirical validation via structural equation modelling.
