철강산업에 있어서 공해저감시설의 설치와 증 개축시 발생하는 제반 문제점과 함께 불완전한 시장과 제약된 경영여건하에서 각 기업들은 주어진 요소의 시장가격으로 생산비용 최소화의 실현과 더불어 합리적이며 효율적인 생산활동을 하고 있다고는 할 수 없다. 본 연구에서는 한국 철강산업을 대상으로 일반비용 함수 방식에 의한 계수검정을 실시하여 공해저감시설 또는 자본을 포함한 각 생산요소의 상대가격 효율성 달성 여부를 알아본다. 그리고 비효율성으로 인한 생산비용의 상승효과를 측정하고 공해저감자본의 실제 투입량과 적정수준과의 차이를 측정하여 공해저감자본에 대한 적정 투입률을 분석한다. 측정 결과, 상대가격의 비효율성으로 인하여 1982년부터 1994년까지의 기간 동안 철강산업의 생산비용이 연평균 약 13.6% 증가되었으며 공해저감자본은 적정수준에 비해 연평균 48.4% 적게 투입된 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this paper is to measure and analyse the relative efficiency of 17 public libraries in Daejeon metropolitan city using Data Envelopment Analysis. In this paper, total staffs, total area, total holdings are used as library inputs and total circulations, total user visits are used as library outputs. The estimated results show that libraries operate at 64.15% efficiency and only 4 libraries are relatively efficient. Inefficiency of the public libraries was due to small use of outputs compared to inputs.

Many Korean construction companies have fallen on hard times because the construction business continues to stagnate. Therefore it is necessary to measure the management efficiency for efficient operation and strengthening competitiveness of them in order to survive a difficult situation. This paper proposes a combined ANP and DEA model to analyze the efficiency of the listed construction firms. In order to determine the input and output variables of DEA, the ANP model is applied to evaluate the importance of input and output variables. The benchmarking companies and efficiency value for the construction firms with inefficiency are also provided to improve the their efficiency. The 57 listed construction companies consisted of 36 listed on KOSPI and 21 listed on KOSDAQ are analyzed in this study. The analysis results show that 11 companies whose values of CCR are 1, and 14 firms whose values of BCC efficiency are 1. In additions, the 19 firms have the scalability efficiency. Finally, we test the correlation between efficiency and the stock price.

The display industry plays an important role in the entire Korean economy. Few empirical research has analyzed the efficiency of display companies although it is necessary to measure the management efficiency for more efficient operation and more strengthening competitiveness of them. The purpose of this paper is to measure and analyze their efficiency of the Korean listed display companies using a hybrid ANP and DEA model. In this paper, we analyzed the 44 listed companies consisted of 7 listed on KOSPI and 37 listed on KOSDAQ at the end of 2010. In order to determine the input and output variables of DEA, the ANP model was applied to evaluate the importance of input and output variables. The benchmarking companies and efficiency value for the display firms with inefficiency were also provided to improve the their efficiency.

The purpose of this paper is to suggest the efficiency measurement way of Korean seaport by using Average Index Transformation model of fuzzy DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis). Two inputs[cargo handling capacity, and berthing capacity], and outputs[cargo handling amount, and the number of ship calls] are used in 1995 and 2004 for 26 Korean seaports. Empirical main results are as follows: First, Tongyung, Gohyun, Okpo, and Sogcho Ports are efficient, and Yeasu Port shows the high efficiency level over 95% under input oriented CCR model. Gohyun and Sogcho Ports showed the most efficient score under average index transformation model. Okpo and Yeasu Ports increased their efficiency scores as the lamda(λ) values are up. The empirical results of fuzzy DEA average index transformation model for Wando, Yeasu, and Seoguipo ports showed that if the lamda values are higher, the efficiency scores are also higher. The main policy implication based on the findings of this study is that the management manager of Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs in Korea should introduce the fuzzy DEA average index transformation model for deciding the size of inputs including the port investment amount and evaluating the port efficiency.

Paradigm of Global economy is changing to creative economy. This study focuses on the role of creative economy to clarify (understand clearly) the impact (influence) which transition of economy system will bring about. The creative economy is basically came from New economy theory. According to the New economy theory, a state can achieve sustainable growth without an inflation, or higher growth rate under given inflation rate, through an investment on ICT. However, different from America, Korea had limited effect of New Economy. This is because Korean economy had factor-input driven growth model rather than New Economy mechanism. However, ICT is essential requirement to move toward New Economy(Digital Economy), it does not sufficiently explain the increase of productivity and economic growth. A crucial point to realize New economy is how to diffuse and spill over the technology development on ICT sector to other industry. ICT is not creative industry or creative economy per se, and it should play as an enabler to improve other industry's productivity. The creative economy can be understood as an extension of New Economy theory. It means the economy that creates values by cultural assets and human resource, as well as capital and labor factors. However, if we understand the meaning of creative economy as change of input factors, it is hard to bring real shape of creative economy.

The purpose of this paper is to measure the productive efficiency and competitive strength of Regional Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Office using the DEA. Using EMS(Efficiency Measurement System) which is LP solver, quantifies in one way or another a "distance" to the efficient frontier of the technology. An input oriented measure quantifies the input reduction which is necessary to become efficient holding the output constant. Symmetrically, an output oriented measure quantifies the necessary to become efficient holding the inputs constant. A non-oriented measure quantifies necessary improvements when both inputs and outputs can be improved simultaneously. According to the analysis result of the DEA method, inefficient Regional Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Office should recommend benchmarking reference Regional Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Office in order to enhance the productive efficiency of port administration and a public institution. Besides data on productive efficiency serves as a tool for policy-makers at all levels of activity and is essential for improving the efficiency with which the various systems operate.

Generally speaking, firms, faced with a regulatory environment, are likely to use more or less inputs than optimal level due to allocative inefficiency of inputs. This paper, first, tests allocative efficiency of fuel inputs and calculates the divergence between the actual and optimal levels of each fuel input conditional on the optimal level of capital stock in Korean thermal power industry. Then, given that each fuel is efficiently allocated. potential reduction of $CO_2$ is estimated over the period 1987~2008. The null hypothesis of allocative efficiency with respect to all fuels is rejected, indicating that thermal power plants fail to attain cost minimization subject do market prices. Allocative efficiency between each pair of fuels is also tested; efficient uses of fuels relative to each other are all rejected. Empirical results indicate that coal and gas are used more and oil is used less than optimal level. On average, more than 10 million tons of $CO_2$ per year could be reduced by achieving allocative efficiency of fuels.

본 연구에서는 한강 본류 팔당댐부터 잠실수중보까지의 22.5 km 구간에서 발생할 수 있는 수질 오염사고에 대한 오염물질 혼합거동 모의를 위해 RAMS를 이용하였다. 이를 위해서 2차원 흐름모형인 RAM2를 이용하여 유속장을 모의하고, 2차원 수질해석 모형인 RAM4를 이용하여 사고주입에 의한 오염물질의 시간에 따른 거동을 분석하였다. 최종적으로 잠실수중보에 위치한 주요 취수장에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 모의를 진행한 결과 오염물질의 이송 및 확산 거동은 투입 위치에 따라 크게 달라진다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 특히 팔당대교에서 투입된 오염물질이 풍납 취수장에 도착하는데 까지 걸리는 시간이 좌안주입과 우안주입의 경우 60시간 가까이 차이가 나는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 오염 물질이 투입되었을 시에 일괄적으로 취수를 통제할 것이 아니라 상황에 따라 오염물질 투입 지점에 맞춰서 적절한 대책을 세워야 하는 것이 필요하다. 이 때 본 연구가 기초적인 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.
