Against Nonaka's seminal work in 1999, this study aims to investigate various influencing factors on knowledge-transfer channels of Korean academics. To do this, we surveyed 20,000 Korean academics in science and engineering with regard to factors involved in their formal and informal collaborative activities with firms. In particular, we focus on the individual characteristics of the academics when the channels are changed from informal channels (e.g. consulting) to formal channels (e.g. licensing), as the codification of knowledge is important when it is spilled over. According to the results, male academics with a longer career and in the field of applied disciplines in a big laboratories are likely to join the transformation of the channels. Interestingly, application capacity as measured by the number of patent application is significantly and positively related to the participation of formal channels. In contrast, scientific capacity as measured by the number of papers is significantly and negatively, or in some case weakly, related to the participation. Finally, based on the findings, some policy implications are put forwarded.

This study estimated the long-run and the short-run price and income elasticity of crude oil demand by using the ARDL model in Korea. First, the long-run cointegration relationship existed between crude oil demand and price or income in the ARDL-bounds tests. Second, the long-run own price, the cross price elasticity and the income elasticity were both statistically significant elastic and sensitive in the ARDL. Third, there was autocorrelation of the residuals, but no misspecification errors and heteroscedasticity, and then the residuals showed a normal distribution. And the CUSUM & CUSUMSQ tests showed that the coefficients were stable. Fourth, the short-run own price, the cross price elasticity and the income elasticity were both statistically significant elastic and sensitive in the ARDL-RECM. The ECM with the short-run dynamics showed rapid adjustments in the long-run equilibrium of oil demand after the economic crisis. In the short-run, the sensitivity of crude oil demand to price and income changes has moved in the same direction as the long-run case. Korea, depending too much on foreign crude oil, is vulnerable to the shocks of oil prices, so rising oil prices can certainly have a negative impact on Korea's trade balance. And the elasticity of long-run oil prices may help to control and manage Korea's oil demand. The government needs to strengthen monitoring of the country's policies and market trends related to crude oil, establish strategies to customize national policies and market conditions, and strengthen active market dominance efforts through pioneering new market and diversification.

The national capacity of electricity of Korea was 81,737 MW and the peak demand was renewed by the record of 71,230 MW in 2012 which has been increasing since the first lighting ceremony had taken place in the Royal Palace(Kyung-Bok Goong) in 1887. Aa the counteract on the rapid increasing of the demand, Korean government is constructing and operating the high capacity nuclear and thermal power plants, however, the operating reserve on weekdays is small while those of weekends are more than 40% of capacity, so they are providing the pumped-storage power plants with the surplus electricity during weekends and operating the power plants which cost higher production price and located in the capital area with WSS (Weekly Start and Stop) mode including the Seoul Thermal Power Plant. Since the Seoul Thermal Power Plant is spending huge amount of expenses for more than 30 times of the WSS annually due to the high production cost even though it is in Seoul, the core of the demand, I chose the power plant unit #5 which was on the grid in 1969 for the case to confirm reducing 23% of the warm start-up time by applying the "Start-up time management program", and that reducing 35% of the water temperature increasing time by accelerate the increasing rate of the inlet temperature of the water circulating pump.

Ever since the Act on the Promotion of Industrial Education and Industry-Academic Cooperation (IAC) was enacted in 2003, domestic universities have been focusing on commercialization research that can be applied to basic research industries by collaborating with industry and government agencies. Despite these efforts, the ratio of technology transfer and commercialization through IAC is low. Most technology transfer and technology commercialization studies have derived core technologies by analyzing the applied patents. First, this study collected expired patents from major domestic universities, compared quality characteristics of the expired and live patents, and finally found key patents among expired patents in order to identify companies and fields of application to which the patents can be utilized. The results of the study focus on expired university patents in terms of methodology and present a framework to identify patents capable of continuous IAC and technology transfer and match them with those in need. The results of this study are expected to contribute to increasing the efficiency of technology commercialization.

최근 배출되는 미량유해물질로 1991년 페놀, 2004년 1,4-다이옥산, 2006년 퍼클로레이트 검출 등 빈번하게 원수수질 오염사고가 발생하고 새로운 미량유해 화학물질의 배출이 우려됨에 따라, 일부 시민단체, 시의회, 언론 등에서 깨끗하고 안전한 상수원수 확보를 위한 근본적인 대책을 요구하는 목소리가 커지고 있다. 이에 대한 대책의 일환으로 취수원 이전에 대한 타당성 등이 검토되고 있다. 이러한 요구를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 K-WEAP 모형을 이용하여 낙동강수계 물수지 분석을 실시하였다. 관련된 기존자료를 이용하여 용수수요량을 산정하였으며, 갈수량시 물수지 분석을 실시하였다. 연구에 사용된 K-WEAP 모형은 SEI-B(Srockholm Environment Institute, Boston Center)에서 개발된 WEAP에 기반을 두고 우리나라에 특성에 맞게 모의형태를 개선하고 한글화한 모형으로 분석대상 지역으로서 도시지역과 농업지역, 단일 소유역이나 복잡한 하천유역의 물 수요-공급 시스템에 적용할 수 있다. 또한 K-WEAP 모형은 용수목적별 수요량 분석, 물 절약, 수리권과 배분 우선순위, 지하수와 하천유량 모의, 저수지 운영, 수력발전, 오염물질 추적, 생태계 필요수량 분석과 같은 광범위한 부문의 문제들까지 다룰 수 있다. 본 연구에서 물수지 분석에 사용된 대상구간은 낙동지점에서 고령교지점까지 약 120km이며, 낙동강에 유입되는 지류로는 감천과 금호강을 대상에 포함하였다. 대상구간에 대해서는 3가지의 시나리오를 바탕으로 모의를 진행하였다. 선정된 3가지 시나리오는 현재의 대구 인근지역의 취수와 방류를 고려하는 상태와 현실가능성이 있는 2가지의 대안에 대해서 분석을 실시해 보았다. 대안들은 각각의 대구 취수시설을 구미 상류로 이전하여 취수하는 상황과 구미지역 및 칠곡지역의 방류구 시설을 하류로 이전하여 방류하는 상황으로 가정하여 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 현재 상태의 시나리오에서만 갈수기시 만족할 만한 결과를 보여주었고 나머지 2가지의 시나리오에서는 유량이 부족함을 나타났다. 현재의 상태를 모의한 시나리오를 제외한 시나리오의 분석에서는 갈수기 시에 물 부족을 겪게 된다. 이는 낙동강 상류에서 추가방류가 없으면 해결되지 못하는 상황으로 다른 대안들(신규 댐 방류 등)에 대한 추가적인 시나리오 분석이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Housing prices in the Korean housing market dropped at an unprecedented magnitude in 1998 after the economic crisis. With the support of housing policies to boost depressed housing markets, house prices managed to bounce back after the mid-1999. During the period of housing price decline and of its recovery, the degrees of house price changes were not even across the country. The cities could be classified into four groups regarding the differential rates of house price changes. The cities which had higher rates of decrease also had higher rates of increase. On the other hand, some other cities continuously experienced a price fall during the recovery period although the rate of housing price changes were relatively low after the economic crisis. Throught the processes of administering housing market depression due to the crisis of the economy, the cities which could fully redeem the level of house prices in housing markets between the Seoul Metropolitan area and the other parts of the country has been widened.

Much of the information is stored as data, research has been activated for analyzing the data and predicting the special circumstances. In the case of power data, the studies, such as research of renewable energy utilization, power prediction depending on site characteristics, smart grid, and micro-grid, is actively in progress. In this paper, we propose a power prediction model using the substation environment data. In this case, we try to verify the power prediction result to reflect the multiple arguments on the power and weather data, rather than a simple power data. The validation process is the effect of multiple factors compared to other two methods, one of power prediction result considering power data and the other result using power pattern data that have been made in the similar weather data. Our system shows that it can achieve max prediction error of less than 15%.

This paper analyzes how the adverse impacts of the global financial crisis on Korea's employment could be mitigated in comparison with the Asian crisis period. The results from error-correction models suggest that the less severe impacts during the global financial crisis could be attributed to (i) smaller GDP reduction, (ii) better maintenance of domestic demand despite a sharp fall of export, (iii) less serious over-employment during the run-up to the crisis, and (iv) less severe credit crunch. Analyses of OECD cross-country data provide corroborating evidence. In order to mitigate adverse impacts on employment, therefore, priority should be given to expansionary macroeconomic policies to keep aggregate domestic demand from collapsing once a crisis is triggered. Also crucial, however, is to maintain sound economic structures such as flexible labor market and adequately supervised financial market.
