We tried to find out the technological innovation properties of the National Research and Development Projects (NRDPs) through scientometric analysis of patent data generated by the NRDPs. The distribution of technology groups in patent data shows that NRDPs are highly focused on the Information Technology(IT) group. The Relative Cites Index(RCI) analysis implies that the Biotechnology(BT) group will emerge in the future. The Relative Family Indices(RFIs) are high among the high technological impact groups such as BT and IT. We defined new measures related with technological convergence and collaborativenessopenness relations among R&D agents. Using network analysis techniques, we analysed the absorption-derivation relations among technology groups and the opennesscollaborativeness relations among R&D agents. Recently, both the share of hetero-plural technology groups and the collaboration among different R&D agents are increasing.

This paper introduces the modified VaR which takes into account the asymmetry and fat-tails of financial asset distribution, and then compares its out-of-sample forecast performance with traditional VaR model such as historical simulation model and Riskmetrics. The empirical tests using stock indices of 6 countries showed that the modified VaR has the best forecast accuracy. At the test of independence, Riskmetrics and GARCH model showed best performances, but the independence was not rejected for the modified VaR. The Monte Carlo simulation using skew t distribution again proved the best forecast performance of the modified VaR. One of many advantages of the modified VaR is that it is appropriate for measuring VaR of the portfolio, because it can reflect not only the linear relationship but also the nonlinear relationship between individual assets of the portfolio through coskewness and cokurtosis. The empirical analysis about decomposing VaR of the portfolio of 6 stock indices confirmed that the component VaR is very useful for the re-allocation of component assets to achieve higher Sharpe ratio and the active risk management.

This study aims to know whether the Accreditation of Hospitals can help to improve productivity of hospital and affect the conversion factor. Based on the Malmquist productivity Index, the productivity of accredited hospital improves. There exists an tendency that as the scores of Accreditation rises, productivity increases. Also the higher the productivity, the lower the conversion factors in the rigid statistical evidence. This evidence is independent of hospital classification, geographical distribution, grouping. This evidence supports the productivity index can be included in the fee negotiations. It also means that rather than static efficiency, the multi-year change of productivity information can be usefully combined to set a conversion factor in Korean National Insurance Contract especially in the discussion of the structural change of payment system.

다양한 수문학적 순환 성분들의 영향을 받는 유역의 포화과정은 토양층의 공간적 이질성과 맞물려 매우 복잡한 거동특성을 보이는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 이와 관련하여 주목해 볼 만한 지형인자 중의 하나로서 지형지수(topographic index)를 들 수 있다. 지형지수는 TOPMODEL의 주요한 입력변수 중의 하나로서 그 공간적 분포에 따라 유역의 상대적인 포화도를 용이하게 평가할 수 있는 객관적인 수단을 제공한다. 하지만 신뢰성 있는 지형지수의 산정은 상당히 까다로운 작업으로서 정확한 지형지수를 산정할 수 있는 절대적인 방법은 존재하지 않는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 지금까지 개발된 DEM을 기반으로 한 각종 흐름방향 모의기술의 수준이 아직 자연적인 지형형상을 완전히 반영하지 못함에 기인한다. 본 연구에서는 8-흐름방향방법의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 개발된 바 있는 $\infty$-흐름방향방법에 따라 지형지수를 산정하여 유역이 공간적으로 포화되어 가는 과정을 모의하여 보았다. $\infty$-흐름방향방법은 각도의 형태로 흐름방향을 산정하여 고정된 흐름방향의 구속에서 벗어남과 동시에 최소한의 흐름분산(flow dispersion) 모의를 허용하여 유역규모의 포화과정을 효율적으로 모의할 수 있는 수단으로 판단된다. 대상유역으로는 설마천 유역을 선택하였으며 지형분석 과정에는 Arc GIS를 기반으로 운용되는 software 중의 하나인 TauDEM을 적용하였다. 아래 그림은 각각 포화도 20%, 50%, 90%에 해당하는 포화역을 도시한 것으로 하천망으로 중심으로 유역이 공간적으로 포화되어 가는 과정을 효율적으로 나타내고 있음을 확인할 수 있다. 본 연구를 통하여 제시되는 방법론은 자연유역의 유출응답 속에 내재하는 동적특성이나 비선형특성에 대한 체계적인 접근을 가능하게 하는 효율적인 수단을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The purpose of this research is to develop an Integrated Water Resources Evaluation Index (IWREI) which can used to assess the performance of water resources projects in a regional perspective focusing on three major sectors including water use, flood, and river environment in water resources policies. The IWREI is estimated by integrating the Water Use Vulnerability Index (WUVI), the Flood Vulnerability Index (FVI), and the River Environment Vulnerability Index (REVI) which represent the vulnerability in each sector. These indices consist of total 26 indicators selected from the pressure indicators representing the causes of damages in water use, flood, and river environment, the state indicators and the response indicators. The estimated index describes the vulnerability and effectiveness of policies with five levels: Low, Medium Low, Medium, Medium High, and High. The results of evaluating total 115 hydrological units in Korea using the WUVI, FVI, REVI, and IWREI indicate that the project effectiveness in water resources policies is clearly verified by the improved index results compared to the past (early 1990s). Regional vulnerability and evaluation indices developed in this research could be used to establish goals of water resources policy and to select priority regions for project implementation.

This paper proposes various policies for improving the process of performance analysis on R&D expenditure of the public funds in the Korean ICT industry. In order to do so, this paper figures out the present issues relating to performance indicators, methodologies for performance evaluation, release and comparison of evaluation results, follow-up study, integrated management system for performance analysis in ICT industry. In this paper, we suggest some new policies such as consulting an expert for improving performance indicators, maintaining the pre-determined performance indicators, introducing the qualitative performance indicators for measuring effectiveness, adopting the new methodologies reflecting R&D characteristics, introducing the new performance index for comparing annual performance, requiring follow-up study for major ICT R&D, introducing the independent and temporary organization for R&D performance analysis in ICT industry. In conclusion, these new policies will raise effectiveness and efficiency of the government R&D expenditure in ICT industry as well as strengthen the industry competitiveness.

Plasticity of clay bodies containing bottom ashes(BA) and small portion of other wastes was investigated. Plasticity indices of clay bodies using Atterberg limits were measured. It was confirmed that the plasticity indices could be applicable in actual forming process by extrusion. The forming possible compositions were found by changing the contents of water, bottom ash, stone dust, and sewage sludge. The relationship between the plasticity and physical properties of the aggregate green body was also investigated. The compositions for extrusion forming can be expected by measured the plasticity indices and these results were confirmed by real extrusion process. There is also strong relationship between the plasticity indices and the property of aggregate green body.

This study developed a ten-step procedure of integrated watershed management (IWM) for sustainability to rehabilitate the distorted hydrologic cycle and identified spatial hazard ranking(step 2). Spatial hazard indices, Potential flood damage (PFD), potential streamflow depletion (PSD), potential water quality deterioration (PWQD), and watershed evaluation index (WEI) were developed using multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) techniques and sustainability evaluation concept(pressure-state-response model). The used MCDM techniques are composite programming, compromise programing, Regime method, and EVAMIX approach which are classified by data availability and objectives (prefeasibility and feasibility).

The important arithmetic operations over finite fields include multiplication and exponentiation. An exponentiation operation can be implemented using a series of squaring and multiplication operations over GF($2^m$) using the binary method. Hence, it is important to develop a fast algorithm and efficient hardware for multiplication. This paper presents an efficient bit-serial systolic array for MSB-first multiplication in GF($2^m$) based on the polynomial representation. As compared to the related multipliers, the proposed systolic multiplier gains advantages in terms of input-pin and area-time complexity. Furthermore, it has regularity, modularity, and unidirectional data flow, and thus is well suited to VLSI implementation.

Potato starches are obtained from Irish Cobbler (the dry type), Shepody and superior (the intermediate type) and Dejima (the moist type). Rheological properties of heat-gelatinized potato starch paste were studied to elucidate difference of various potato starches. Heat-gelatinized 3 to 7% potato starch paste showed pseudo plasticity in yield stress. As starch paste concentration increased, the values of consistency index was increased. Relationship between logarithmic consistency index and concentration of potato starch paste was linear at 5% starch concentration. Concentration dependence of consistency index and yield stress of Shepody was highest. As measuring temperature increased, the value of consistency index was decreased. Irish Cobbler starch paste at $50^{\circ}C$, Shepody, Superior and Dejima starch paste at $60^{\circ}C$ showed linear relationships with different slopes. The activation energies of Shepody starch paste was 3.97㎉l/㏖.
