This paper studies the characteristics of the network of the Zhongguancun Cluster, the most representative innovative cluster of the high-tech industry in China at present. For this study, Zhongguancun Cluster was the first high-tech cluster created in China in 1988, the current Zhongguancun Cluster plays a leading role in the development of the high-tech industry in China. In addition, the Zhongguancun Cluster has attracted global attention and helped elevate China as a key region in terms of research development in relation to the high-tech industry. With regard to the spatial characteristics of the network belonging to the companies in Zhongguancun Cluster, purchase and producer services and information and R&D network have a strong tendency to be local, while on the other hand the product sales network has a strong tendency to be non-local. It is because the political support supplied by the government, institutional base that provides high-tech companies, producer services and information regarding producer services is relatively well prepared and managed in Zhongguancun Cluster. The spatial characteristics of the R&D network have a very strong local character is due to the location of the Zhongguancun Cluster where companies, universities and research centers with outstanding research development capacity as well as various support organizations for technology innovation within the cluster are included. On the other hand, because the high-tech products produced in this area are sold all across China as well as in foreign countries, the product sales network has a strong non-local character. Strengthening the local network in terms of the main agents of the cluster is the most important aspect in order to develop a certain industrial cluster into an innovative cluster. In this respect, if the Zhongguancun Cluster is seen from the perspective of a network, it has a basic network foundation. However, to strengthen international competitiveness, not only the local network but also the international network should be strengthened.

조미료란 식품을 조리, 가공, 섭취할 때 맛을 증진시키거나 강화시킬 목적으로 사용되는 물질을 일컫는다. 발효, 종합 및 천연계 조미료의 국내외 시장동향에 대해 살펴보고, 조미료의 향후 발전방향과 중점 연구 분야, 관련업계의 연구개발 동향에 대한 고찰을 토대로 조미료 분야의 고부가가치 산업으로의 육성방안에 대해 알아보았다. 미원, 아이미 등으로 대표되는 발효조미료의 내수시장은 성숙기를 거쳐 소폭 감소세를 보이는 쇠퇴기에 접어들고 있다. 이는 소비자의 MSG에 대한 기피현상이 주 원인으로 판단된다. 전반적으로 품질 차별화 없이 가격 경쟁이 심화되고 있는 실정이다. 국내 종합조미료 시장은 1975년 국내에 처음으로 CJ에서 다시다 제품을 출시한 후 대상에서 1982년 맛나, 1988년 감치미를 출시하면서 30여 년간 지속적으로 성장해 왔다. 현재 시장규모는 2천억원에 이르고 있으며 최근 들어서는 성장세가 완만해지고 있고 가정용은 거의 정체되어 있다. 일본 조미료 시장은 발효조미료, 종합조미료 그리고 다양한 조미식품의 소재로 활용되는 천연조미료로 구분할 수 있다. 발효조미료 시장은 국내와 비슷한 상황으로 전체적인 물량변화는 약간 감소하는 경향이며 생산기지의 해외이전 현상이 뚜렷하다. 종합조미료 시장은 한국과 유사한 풍미조미료 외에도 보다 전문화되고 다양한 형태의 조미료가 시판되고 있으며, 전통적인 풍미조미료는 정체현상을 보이고 건강지향, 전용화 조미료가 호조를 보이고 있다. 일본과 한국의 조미료 발전 단계는 조금 차이를 보이고 있다. 현재 한국은 종합조미료 시대에서 용도별 조미료 시대로 넘어가는 단계에 있는 반면, 일본은 이미 메뉴 전용 조미료시대에 접어들었고, 건강, 기능성을 강조하는 시대로 나아가고 있다. 이들 변화는 건강에 대한 소비자의 관심과 그로 인한 보다 천연에 가까운 조미소재에 대한 수요, 동시에 맛에 대한 충족까지 요구하는 시대적 변화에 따른 필연적 결과로 보인다. 미래의 조미료는 천연계 소재의 사용량이 증가할 것이고, 소비자의 건강, 안전 추구심리에 부흥하여 안전성과 기능성을 부여하는 소재에 관심이 집중될 것으로 보인다. 더불어 전반적인 생활수준 향상에 따라 제품의 고급화와 전용화도 진행될 것으로 보인다. 향후 조미료시장을 주도할 각 현상에 대해 좀더 자세히 알아보고 학계 및 업체의 최근 연구동향과 제품개발 현황에 대해 고찰해 보았다. 기술연구 동향을 보면, 나노 기술에 의한 조미신소재연구, 초미분쇄기술, 미세 캡슐화 기술, 생물공학 기술이 활용된 발효 및 효소분해에 의한 펩타이드계 조미소재 개발 등이 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 선진업체 연구 및 제품개발 동향은 아지노모트/교와의 ''코쿠미''계 조미소재 연구개발, 일연푸드/동해물산의 천연 엑기스계 조미소재 연구개발, 보조주(주)의 주류 조미료 개발 위주로 살펴보았다. 조미료 시장의 발전 과정과 선진 업체들의 연구, 개발동향을 종합해 보면 첫째는 천연 건강지향에 부응하는 차별화된 소재 및 기능성 소재 개발이고 둘째는 맛과 편리함의 추구에 대응하는 메뉴 전용화 추세이다. 이를 위한 기술적 연구도 기능성 소재(히스티딘 함유 디펩타이드)개발, 나노기술, 미세캡슐화 기술 등을 통하여 다양하게 진행되고 있다. 조미료 산업을 첨단 고부가가치 산업으로 육성하기 위해서는 R&D 투자확대와 효율성을 제고하는 것이 필수적이다. 각 기업단위에서는 장기적 차원에서 첨단식품 기반기술에 대한 연구를 수행하거나, 전문 중소기업, 벤처를 육성하는데 지원해야 한다. 그러나 현실은 당장의 수익과 회사간 경쟁으로 인해 장기적 투자, 사회적 인프라 육성 등에는 관심을 쏟지 않고 있다. 조미료를 비롯한 식품에 관련된 기술들이 다양한 기초연구와 응용기술, 개발연구 등의 총합인 경우가 많기 때문에 이들 상이한 연구 분야간의 연계를 강화하고 개발된 기술의 이전, 확산체계를 구축할 필요가 있다. 이를 위해 기업간 수평적 네트워크 외에도 국가기관이 참여하는 연구 자원의 효율적 집행 기관이 필요하리라 본다.

The balance between exploration for new possibility and exploitation for existing certainty is an important issue in strategy, innovation, R&D as well as organization learning. Among the convergence trends of technologies, many firms seek to have the wider technological knowledge assets and the deeper technology capabilities for the sustainable competitive advantage at the same time. While firms plan technology portfolio strategies, they should consider the attribute of the technology. Nanotechnology, a cutting-edge technology, is a general purpose technology, unlike conventional product-oriented technologies. This empirical study was focused on how multi-national firms' exploration and exploitation strategies for nanotechnology affect their innovative and financial performance. It uses multiple regression analysis on panel data. This result shows that the more diversified and specialized nanotechnology as platform technology is positively related to their innovative and financial performance, unlike the research results for product-oriented technologies. In addition, exploratory innovation is more effective to firm performance than exploitation. This implies how global firms can manage effectively platform technology strategies under the constraints of resources.

In recent years, in response to rapid technological change, technology planning activities are important for companies to cope with technological competition. However, Small and Medium Enterprises(SMEs) lack the resources and competence to establish their own technology roadmaps. Therefore, government-led roadmaps for SMEs have been proposed to support the R&D direction and R&D capabilities of SMEs. However, SMEs R&D policies are still not well linked with technology roadmaps and R&D programs. In other words, the size of R&D for SMEs is determined according to demand of SMEs regardless of strategic technology roadmap. In this study, we propose a investment prioritization model based on a technology road map to unify R&D investment policy. Using the decision model designed to prioritize strategic technology investments in the SME strategy roadmap, we conduct empirical analysis of strategic technologies in the advanced convergence and green manufacturing. AHP analysis was conducted after questionnaires on the importance of strategic technology and the importance of influential factors to 46 experts such as expert of research institutes and support organizations.

The global Industry has been shaped by start-ups that originated with knowledge-based innovative strategies or technologies in the 21st century. Specifically, laboratory start-ups that rely on research papers or patents for new technology development are recognized for their high survival rate and the creation of employment opportunities. Our study concentrated on 'I-Corps', which also introduced in Korea, standing for innovation corps is a laboratory startup program launched in 2011 by the NSF(National Research Foundation) to commercialize R&D results and foster entrepreneurship as part of the policy to build a start-up system at the national innovation level. In this study, we proposed and empirically tested a research model focusing on teams participating in the I-Corps program to determine how startup team diversity, among the team characteristics of laboratory startups, affected patent performance. As a result of the analysis, among the proposed variables, age diversity, educational background diversity, and value diversity had a significant impact on patent performance. The results of this study are expected to further strengthen the theoretical and practical foundations of researchers or practitioners of the I-Corps program, as well as related areas involving technology & laboratory startups, intellectual property and knowledge management fields in the future.

Environmental changes, which are strongly requiring technological cooperation, such as technological development and strategic alliances according to industrial ecosystem change, have a significant impact on not only product quality but also services. Thus, there is a need for 'servitization' that can satisfy the needs of customers and the ecosystem of businesses through the convergence of manufacturing companies and services. This study uses the Expectation-Confirmation Model to examine the impact on user satisfaction and Continuance Usage Intention. Research(Study) was conducted on users who are using high-tech-based cars. For this, we used Expectation Confirmation(match expections for the user's pre-and post-use relationships), Perceived Ease, Perceived Usefulness, User Satisfaction and Habitual Use and using Continuance Usage Intention as a dependent variable. Their causation was examined with the spss 26.0 and smartpls 2.0 statistical programs. As implications of this study, Expectation Confirmation has been shown to have significant positive effects on Perceived Ease, Perceived Usefulness, User Satisfaction and Habitual Use. For this results, the expectations before and after the use of high-tech cars lead to improved daily lives convenience and(or) work efficiency, leading to user satisfaction and further Continuance Usage Intention. Motors consider it important to pursue the work improvements that consumers want and use it useful in daily lives in the production and sale of high-tech cars. It is expected that it will create natural habits for services that users are satisfied with, and that these habits will affect the continuous growth and understanding of the trend of change.

In the insect industry, as the scope of application of insects is expanded from pet insects and natural enemies to feed, edible and medicinal insects, the demand for quality control of insect raw materials is increasing, and interest in securing the safety of insect products is increasing. In the process of expanding the industrial scale, controlling the temperature and humidity and air quality in the insect breeding room and preventing the spread of pathogens and other pollutants are important success factors. It requires a controlled environment under the operating system. European commercial insect breeding facilities have attracted considerable investor interest, and insect companies are building large-scale production facilities, which became possible after the EU approved the use of insect protein as feedstock for fish farming in July 2017. Other fields, such as food and medicine, have also accelerated the application of cutting-edge technology. In the future, the global insect industry will purchase eggs or small larvae from suppliers and a system that focuses on the larval fattening, i.e., production raw material, until the insects mature, and a system that handles the entire production process from egg laying, harvesting, and initial pre-treatment of larvae., increasingly subdivided into large-scale production systems that cover all stages of insect larvae production and further processing steps such as milling, fat removal and protein or fat fractionation. In Korea, research and development of insect smart factory farms using artificial intelligence and ICT is accelerating, so insects can be used as carbon-free materials in secondary industries such as natural plastics or natural molding materials as well as existing feed and food. A Korean-style customized breeding system for shortening the breeding period or enhancing functionality is expected to be developed soon.

China's rapid development and commercialization of high-tech technologies in the fourth industrial revolution has led to effective technology exchanges between Korean and Chinese firms becoming more important to Korea's mid-term and long-term industrial development. However, there is still a lack of empirical research on how technology exchanges between Korean and Chinese firms proceed and their effectiveness. In response, this study conducted a social network analysis based on text mining data of Korea-China business technology exchange and cooperation articles introduced in the news from 2018 to March 2020 on the current status and effects of Korea-China technology exchanges related to the fourth industrial revolution, and conducted a regression analysis how network centrality effect on the firm performance. According to the results, most of the Korean major electronic firms are actively networking with Chinese firms and institutions, showing high centrality in the centrality index. Korean telecommunication firms showed high betweenness centrality and subgraph centrality, and Korean Internet service providers and broadcasting contents firms showed high eigenvector centrality. In addition, Chinese firms showed higher betweenness centrality than Korean firms, and Chinese service firms showed higher closeness centrality than manufacturing firms. As a result of regression analysis, this network centrality had a positive effect on firm performance. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first to analyze the impact of the technical cooperation between Korean and Chinese firms under the fourth industrial revolution context. This study has theoretical implications that suggested the direction of social network analysis-based empirical research in global firm cooperation. Also, this study has practical implications that the guidelines for network analysis in setting the direction of technical cooperation between Korea and China by firms or governments.

Enterprise which has a core technology or organization which manages a core information will be walking into a critical situation like a ruins when organization's confidential information is outflowed. In the past confidential information that was leaked to the off-line, recently the outflow made possible through a variety of equipment at any time via the network based on the ubiquitous communication environment. In this paper, we propose to authenticate and block all packets transmitted via the network at real-time in order to prevent confidentials outflow. Especially in or der to differentiate between users who attempt to disclose confidentials, we propose to insert user's biometric informaion transparently at per-packet basis, and also verify a performance by simulation.

2010년 기준 세계 물산업은 약 4,800억불 규모이며, 2025년에는 약 1조 달러 규모로 성장할 것으로 전망된다. 또한 기후변화 등의 요인으로 물산업의 범위는 물순환체계 전과정을 포괄하는 "유역종합개발+상하수도+대체수자원"으로 확장될 것으로 예측된다. 그러나 지금까지의 국내 물산업 육성은 주로 상하수도 분야 중심으로 국한되어, 기후변화에 대응한 유역종합개발 분야에 대한 시장 진출기회를 상실하고 있다. 상하수도 중심의 물산업은 이미 선진 메이저 기업들이 선점하여 치열한 경쟁이 벌어지고 있는 '레드오션'이라 할 수 있으므로, 새로운 물산업의 강국으로 부상하기 위해서는 우리가 가진 장점을 바탕으로 물산업의 새로운 영역을 개척하는 방안에 대한 연구가 필요한 시점이다. 본 연구는 먼저 국내외 물순환체계 전과정(유역종합개발+상하수도+대체수자원)에 대한 시장 조사을 통해 세계 물산업 시장을 프로젝트 유형별, 지역별로 분석하고, 이를 토대로 국내 물산업 육성과 해외진출을 위한 당면 과제를 다음과 같이 제시하였다. 첫째, 민관협력을 위한 제도적 틀을 형성할 필요가 있다. 정부의 역할이 매우 중요한데, 정부 또는 기금이 자금의 단순한 대부자에서 적극적인 투자자로 전환함으로서 국내 민간기업들의 해외시장 진입장벽을 낮추어 줄 필요가 있다. 정부 주도의 민관협력이 활성화되면 참여 기업의 재무적 리스크를 현저히 줄일 수 있다. 또한, 상하수도 운영 경험을 축적한 공기업이 해외진출 지원기능을 수행하도록 하여야 한다. 즉, 공기업이 민간 기업의 경쟁자가 아니라 지원자가 될 수 있도록 프레임을 바꿔주어야 한다. 둘째, 물산업 클러스터의 형성이다. 물산업 제조업은 대부분 중소 벤처기업으로 독자적인 해외진출이 곤란하므로, 물전문 공기업이 중소 벤처기업 육성 및 해외진출의 앵커 역할을 담당하는 것이 필요하다. 이스라엘이나 싱가포르의 물산업 클러스터처럼 Anchor 역할을 행하는 공기업과 민간기업이 장기적 협력관계를 구축할 수 있는 기반을 마련해야한다. 셋째, 신시장 역량의 창출이다. 기후변화로 크게 성장할 전망인 통합물관리 시장에 대한 전략적 접근이 요구된다. 우선 ODA 등 대외 원조자금을 활용하여 투자비가 적게 들고 정보를 선점할 수 있는 조사 설계부터 시작하여, 댐 및 수력개발, 상하수도 건설 운영 등에 단계적으로 접근할 수 있을 것이다. 또한, 향후 도입될 예정인 물인프라의 Smart 기술, 첨단 수처리 기술 등을 활용하여 새로운 시장을 개척해야 한다. 4대강살리기 사업, 해수담수화 등 조기에 경쟁우위를 갖출 수 있는 사업과 기술을 Flagship Project로 브랜드화하여 우리나라를 "물강국"으로 포지셔닝할 경우 세계 물시장 공략에 보다 효과적일 것으로 판단된다.
