Value Engineering(VE) is being applied as an useful tool to eliminate the waste of cost and noneffective factors previously in construction projects. Ministry of construction and transportation' has been accordingly enforcing extensionally design phase VE to the construction costing more than 10 billion won, an importance of design phase VE. Although there are legal supports and technical effects, an effect about an introduction of design phase VE can not be applied properly because of several problems at the process. So, in this study, try to find out competency factors of design phase VE to enforce a competency of VE team as a basic database for developing a check list, and estimate weight. For the result, find out a competency evaluation item and organize as a team knowledge, a team work skill and a team attitude. Perform a first survey to verify a reliability and propriety regarding the found competency evaluation, perform the second survey competency as to evaluation item of the found 1, 2, 3 class and then estimate the weight by AHP.

Currently, The budget expenditure for national R&D has been on the rise, and the quantitative performance in national R&D programs has been increasing accordingly. However, a growth of qualitative performance can not reach to an upward trend of quantitative performance. For a poor qualitative performance such as patent grades and technologies with low efficiency of technology transfer, the performance evaluation centered on "number of cases" is necessary to improve and start to introduce various "qualitative performance indicators". This paper focuses on "Triadic Patent Families" being measurable the overseas competitiveness of patent applied in major countries(the US, Europe and Japan). It analyzes the influencing factors to evaluate the quality of qualitative performance of R&D program. The result of this analysis shows a significant effect on the creating of triadic patent families within factors of R&D scale and project characteristics. This paper is significantly meaningful to expand insufficient triadic patent families to the target of interest rather than early study relatively, and to analyze the influencing factors of the creation of triadic patent families.

It is possible to set up the Roadside Barrier which is suitable for Performance Evaluation Criteria by domestic standard. But a number of section of expressway roadside have old guardrail that was installed before reform the guideline. These poor performance guardrails threaten driver's life. There is lots of difficult problem to change old guardrails that are installed 2,777km in expressway of whole road side at the same time. Especially budget problem. The purpose of study is to develop performance improvement guardrails by the minimum reinforcement. In this study, guardrail improvement method(SB1, 3, 5 grade) is developed through crash simulation using LS-DYNA 3D and vehicle crash test. And it's expected not only to decrease of collision accident but to increase safe level. Of course one thing that can't be missing is to reduce a lot of budget of guardrail change.

To tackle the problem of regional economic and social disparities in Korea, the government of Roh, Mu-Hyun(2003-2007), launched a series of radical policies and programs to decentralize administrative activities of the capital region and stimulate economic growth in less developed regions, based on regional innovation systems and industrial cluster concepts. This paper highlights the Roh government's approach to reducing regional disparities, and makes some comments on the innovation cluster strategy by investigating the realities appearing in a major city, Daejeon. It concludes that many ministries of the Roh government created various competing, undifferentiated programs that were assigned too much money and energy, and drained resources from other governmental activities. In fact, very few programs show positive signs of achieving the goals of innovation in less developed regions, balancing the growth gaps between well-off regions and the rest of Korea, and generating overall economic growth for the country.

There has been a continuous debate on decentralization of welfare. The proponents of decentralization argue that it will enhance the autonomy of local governments and the efficiency in the provision of service. However, the opponents argue that it will lead to the welfare reduction and the increased inequality among localities. This study attempts to deal with the question, focusing on the evaluation of decentralization reform of Roh Government. The main results are as follows: After the decentralization, local governments has undergone hardships in financing the welfare service, while there is no clear evidence that the local autonomy has enhanced. In respect of fiscal role-sharing, local duties has significantly increased because of the insufficient grants-in-aid for decentralization and inappropriate formula in assessing the grants. In respect of functional role-sharing, the decreased role of central government made it difficult for local governments to provide enough residential institution for the elderly and the disabled. To improve the decentralization reform, deliberate reclassification is needed to decide which item should be transferred to localities. Regarding the characteristic of the projects, social services could be transferred in the long run, while central government should take more responsibilities for the income guarantee and protection for the disadvantaged.

In this study, we consider a capacity planning problem where the number of machines at each workstation is determined in manufacturing systems of top-edge electronic products such as semiconductor or display. The considered manufacturing system is the typical hybrid flowshop which has identical parallel machines at each workstation and the setup operation occurs when the types of consecutively processed products are different. The objective of the problem is finding good combinations of the numbers of machines at all workstations, under the given capital amount for purchasing machines. Various heuristic methods for determining the numbers of machines at workstations are proposed and the performances were tested through a series of computational experiments. In the study, a simulation model has been developed in order to simulate the considered manufacturing system with dynamic orders and complex process. The simulation model is also used for conducting the computational comparison test among various proposed methods.

The purpose of this study is propose an Artificial Neural Network(ANN) model for the construction estimate of the public educational facility at conceptual stage. The current method for the preliminary cost estimate of the public educational facility uses a single-parameter which is based on basic criteria such as a gross floor area. However, its accuracy is low due to the nature of the method. When the difference between the conceptual estimate and detailed estimate is huge, the project has to be modified to meet the established budget. Thus, the ANN model is developed by using multi-parameters in order to estimate the project budget cost more accurately. The result of the research shows 6.82% of the testing error rates when the developed model was tested. The error rates and the error range of the developed model are smaller than those of the general preliminary estimating model at conceptual stage. Since the proposed ANN model was trained using the detailed estimate information of the past 5 years' school construction data, it is expected to forecast the school project cost accurately.

This research reviews the education welfare priority support project and analyzes its policy from the welfare-state perspective. This study evaluates the policy contents, overall procedures, and the changes in the perspectives of the project in accordance with the political power changes in the government, and illuminates future directions. For this, the research infers desirable typology of the welfare state, and analogizes the budget, the target population, key issues and delivery systems of the education welfare priority support project. Education welfare priority support project still remains to follow a selective and hierarchical business format, despite the legally stated initiatives, growing budget, and the expansion of the operation which has been governed by the policy makers. Particularly, the state of this project, and examine whether or not it has been distorted by the governmental emphasis on the educational outcomes and performance should continuously be examined as a future direction of the research. Finally, the study suggests several recommendations for the desirable anchorage of the project within the framework of being a prospective welfare state.
