This paper investigates the impact of the government R&D expenditure on the IT industry in Korea. The analysis of such impact can be used to derive the policy implications for the IT industry. The contribution of government R&D to the IT industry was analyzed based on the input-output table of the year 1990-1995-2000. The results show that the amount of the government R&D expenditure induced the IT industry to book twice greater production than it would have been in the absence of such government R&D expenditure during the period under investigation. It is also shown that job creation was strongly encouraged in the broadcasting equipment, software and computer-related services. During the period under the study, the composition of the workers in the IT hardware industry remained unchanged while the production increased significantly, which confirms the jobless growth in the IT hardware industry. The results of this study suggest that the government R&D should focus on improving the competitiveness of the intermediate good and parts industry.

This study is about the demand survey of R&D for preventing disaster and safety accidents. The results are as follows. First, the priorities of technology development is shown in the following order: natural disasters, human and social disaster, and safety accidents. Second, the amount of R&D investment is shown in the following order in respect of disaster management phase: prevention, preparedness, response and recovery. However, investment in the recovery phase was low. Third, it was concentrated on some types the demands of technological development in the public sector. There is a possibility of duplication of technology development in government investment. Suggest that interagency cooperation is required.

Regarding a long-term strategic plan in the food and agriculture sector, R&D policies and investment trends in major overseas countries are reviewel. The importance of efficient resource management is emphasized along with continuous government support for R&D in the agri-food industry. In response to facing social issues such as climate change, food security, food safety, health, and environment, research and innovation agenda is mainly focused on harmony between economy and environment, human nutrition and health as well as animal and plant health, and an integrated ecosystem approach. Particularly in the food sector, public investment is generally made in food safety, nutrition and health, and private investment for food processing and manufacturing. Public-private collaboration is carried out in order to enhance the efficiency of R&D innovation and development strategies in the agri-food industry.

This study examines how scientists understand standardization and standardization policy in the Korean national R&D context and analyze future policy direction of standardization policy. Interview with 15 scientists at universities and government-funded research institutes who have participated national R&D (particularly in the field of technology convergence) were conducted. The results show that considerations of standardization at the process of technology convergence is somewhat different from them at the process of general R&D. Also, considerations of standardization at the process of technology convergence is needed at the later time within the R&D time schedule because of low visibility and forecasting on the technology convergence outcome. It finds that "standardization by private sector" is the future policy direction in Korea. The government needs to be remained as "helper" for private sector to lead standardization in a globalized market

Current status of the domestic food industry and major issues are reviewed, and some problems derived from the R&D aspect are analyzed. Particularly, the role of the public sector and the direction of R&D are presented in order to enhance the vitality of the food industry and strengthen the competitiveness of small and medium-sized businesses. At first, the government needs to provide a consistent R&D roadmap through macroscopic coordination, and public institutes and private companies should come up with practical and concrete collaborative measures. It is also necessary to set the investment direction for food R&D in the public sector, taking into account the strategic importance of core technology and the global level difference, targeting on basic research and public platform technology. More efforts to discover agendas focused on food technology and link them to large-scale R&D projects are urgently needed to solve national and social problems through food research.

This paper analyzes the strategic planning process of NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) including its center, GSFC (Goddard Space Flight Center) in the framework of strategic planning in publicly funded R&D organizations. To construct this framework, theories have been considered mainly focused on strategic management and planning, its application on public sector, and characteristics of R&D activities. As a result, the framework could be set up in accordance with the process of strategic planning. Also, as a case study, we explored the practice of strategic planning process and organizational implementation of NASA and GSFC. During the analysis on the strategic process of NASA and GSFC, we could draw some lessons out as follows: First, we should consider the differences between private and public sectors when we establish strategic planning in public sector. Second, the stakeholder analysis should be involved in setting the mission, goals, and strategies of an organization. Third, it is necessary to identify and assess the socio-economic effects or public benefits by R&D programs of the organization and use the feedback on its goal. Fourth, to implement strategic planning effectively, planning process should be closely integrated with the management process such as setting goals, securing budgets, and evaluating the organization. Conclusively, the analysis on NASA and GSFC contribute to implementing strategic planning in publicly funded R&D organizations by providing the appropriately modified framework. As an extension of this study, more deliberate analysis on various practices of strategic planning and performance indicators should be followed.

This study examines how eco-innovation contributes to the exports of environmentally-friendly products using the dynamic panel model. The results reveal that the adjustment in the exports exists to recover the long-run equilibrium with sluggish adjustment speed. In addition, the results show that environmental patent applications and environment-related R&D expenditures are beneficial for enhancing the environmentally-friendly exports. While the environmental patent applications are associated only with an increase in the exports of products for resource management, the environmental R&D expenditures contribute to the exports of pollution management products, cleaner technologies and products, and resource management products. Moreover, as the long-run effects of eco-innovation on the exports become greater than the short-run effects, it appears that public eco-innovation is more likely to support future exports than private eco-innovation.
