This study derived the policy implications and market strategies by analysis the e-book companies requirements & the CPND value chain structure, in order to revitalize the e-book market in Korea. Specifically, we examined the prospect of e-book market in Korea, current situations of production and distribution, awareness of service utilization and requirements for support policy with targets of 30 companies. As a research, the most needed item for e-book companies is 'PR and marketing support to enter and open the markets'(27%), which is the highest. 'Financial support such as labor costs and business expenses', 'support for retraining personnel to develop the expertise in respective fields' are followed and they account for 22%. Currently, the most effective support item is the external support program(35%) and funding power(30%) is followed. Unlike a paper book market, e-book is turned into a platform business in terms of the value chain. Based on these research content, e-book market activation and corporate competitive strategy was derived as follows : 1)literacy reinforcement about SNS marketing and e-pub3 authoring tool. 2)statistical DB construction of retail sales channels. 3)diversification of the billing system. 4)The quality of the e-book content certification.

The diffusion of smart devices has greatly influenced the market dynamics of the telecommunications industry. The competition paradigm has shifted from individual firm-based competition to ecosystem-based competition. To satisfy the diverse needs of market customers, it has become more important for telecommunications companies to form alliances with complementary partners in the ecosystem. This study empirically investigates the influence of ecosystem-based alliance formations on the financial performance of firms in the Korean telecommunications market. Specifically, the impact of a CPND (Content, Platforms, Networks, and Devices) alliance in the ICT (Information and Communications Technology) sector on firms' profitability is examined using a structural equation model. The results indicate that before the diffusion of smart devices, ecosystem-based alliance formations with other firms in the ICT ecosystem were not effective for enhancing profitability. However, after this diffusion, alliance formation between members of the value chain in the ICT ecosystem contributed significantly to firms' financial performance. This implies that recent alliances with firms that are constituents of the ICT ecosystem are an important element of profit generation in the ICT market in Korea.

In this study, we derived key factors required for the activation of the domestic e-book market and evaluated its importance. Specifically, we derived key evaluation items of C-P-N-D ecosystem perspective through literature review. In addition, we analyzed the implications by evaluating the importance depending on AHP after derived items were modified and classified together with the publisher working group. As the results of analysis, experts considered price(0.785), quality(0.149) and service(0.066) as the important items among three items derived as the primary upper class. A total of 23 factors were derived as the secondary lower class. The importance depending on C-P-N-D areas is as follows: contents(0.43), platform(0.35), device(0.11) and network(0.05). Among the entire sub-factors, three items such as 'distribution of profits with platform', 'profitability of product costs of contents' and 'appropriate rental price of contents and streaming service' showed significantly higher importance than that of other 20 items.

In response to changes in the global market environment, companies in the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) industry have begun to pursue cooperation and competition on a business ecosystem level. In particular, to become a leader in the new growth engine industry of Internet of Things (IoT), companies around the globe aim to consolidate vertically up the value chain through a solid establishment of their platforms. This paper looks at Samsung and Xiaomi, whose strategies for creating an ecosystem based on their own platforms differ in accordance to the ecosystem in which they compete. An analysis of these two companies indicate that Samsung pursues a strategy to become the market standard by openly sharing its platform with complementary companies, whereas Xiaomi pursues a strategy that achieves value as a channel owner through the restriction on which companies may become partners. This paper concludes that as Samsung and Xiaomi strive to become IoT industry leaders, each company pursues a variant of a platform-based value chain integration strategy based on the specific nature of the ecosystems in which they compete, thereby creating value through a symbiotic relationship with their partner companies.

The existing smart grid, which is centered on the power grid, is rapidly spreading to new energy and renewable energy such as heat and gas, which are expressed as smart energy. Smart Energy interacts with electric energy and is connected to wired / wireless network based on IoT sensor based on energy analysis using AI to rapidly expand ecosystem with various energy carriers and customers. However, smart energy based on IoT is lacking in technological and institutional preparation for security compared to efforts to activate the market according to the interests of government and business operators. In this study, we will present Smart Energy 's privacy policy in terms of value system(CPND) of convergence ICT.

스마트시대는 전 산업분야, 더 나아가 사회 전반에 IT가 활용, 재생산되어 인류 삶의 질을 보다 향상시키는 시대로 정의할 수 있다. 이를 위한 기술(스마트 기술)의 혁신은 타산업과의 융합은 물론, IT산업발전을 위한 총체적(holistic)접근이 요구되며, 단기적이고 금전적인 성과를 지향하기 보다는 비금전적(non-financial)이며, 사회성과 등 미래 성과를 지향하는 특징을 가지고 있다. 본고에서는 스마트시대 기술 진화방향을 생태계(CPND) 활성화 차원에서 조망하고, 혁신을 위한 R&D 전략을 기술도메인의 발굴 및 선택을 위한 기획전략, 효과적 성과창출을 위한 수행전략 그리고 효율성 제고를 위한 성과 활용전략으로 구분하여 제시하였다. 즉, 미래 스마트시대에 부합하는 기술혁신을 견인하기 위해서는 물리적 공간/아날로그적 형식에서 가상(Virtual) 공간/디지털 형식으로, 폐쇄적 플랫폼에서 개방형 플랫폼으로, 음성/데이터중심에서 지능화된 디바이스로, 대인통신에서 사물통신으로 진화하는 메가트렌드를 고려하여, 지향점에 따른 차별적 기획체계 구축, 다양한 가치생성방식의 활용, 성과극대화형 R&D 수행방식 수립, 그리고 특허경영과 같은 활용체계 구축 등의 R&D 전략이 필요함을 제시하였다.

The growth of virtual reality(VR), which is regarded as a part of the 4th industrial revolution, is being delayed differently from the prediction. In this study, we briefly analyze these reasons from the point of view of CPND ecosystem. Virtual reality is a technology in which a user wears a device and accesses a platform through a network to use various contents. Therefore, balanced development of C-P-N-D ecosystem fields is important for successful popularization of virtual reality. In Korea, content, platforms, and devices, except for the network, are evaluated as having low competitiveness. While efforts to secure competitiveness in individual fields are important, it is also necessary to nurture network-based platforms that can utilize killer content. It should be kept in mind that simple breeding of killer content alone can not build an entire virtual reality C-P-N-D ecosystem, and the broadcast / media sector also needs to take this approach.

There is a Korean proverb that learns old things and learns new things from it. This study analyzes the change of the policy governance system in the field of information and communication since 2008 and outlines the future directions. The launch of the Korea Communications Commission (KCC), which combines the Ministry of Information and Communication and the Korea Broadcasting Commission in 2008, and the separation of the Korea Communications Commission and Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning in 2013, were systematic responses to the policy environment. Recent changes in the ICT environment, such as the advent of the fourth industrial revolution and the intelligence information society, call for an organizational timely response. In the future, it will be very important to set the scope of ICT policy, the establishment of a dedicated organization, the strengthening of the regulatory system, and the role of the government and the market.
