According to the E-Government Readiness Index announced by UN in 2012, the Republic of Korea ranked top again following the last time. However, according to the national competitiveness index announced by IMD, that of the Republic of Korea has still ranked in the world's top 20 for three successive years. In particular, the area of government efficiency took the 25th place in 2012, descending three steps compared to that in 2011, and the area of infrastructure related to informatization has been ranking 20th for three years. This phenomenon can prove that the Republic of Korea's informatization is not producing good outcome, and the investment in informatization is not creating good effects. This phenomenon was analyzed in terms of a life cycle of informatization in this study. As the result, it was revealed that structural problems remain in each step, the linking of information in each step is insufficient, reasonable trace management is absent ,and information management depending on systematic plan is lacking. To solve these problems, improvement measures through architecture consideration were suggested.

The policy proposal by the current Korean government that proposes flexible overtime rules is causing social controversy. This study has explored the 612 experts' opinions on the occupational safety and health impacts of the policy using an online self-report survey. They expected short-term overwork (87.25%), overwork inequality (86.44%), irregular working hours (84.31%), chronic overwork (84.15%), long working hours (83.66%), and unpredictability of working hours (81.86%) as a result of the policy change. They also responded that the policy change would increase industrial accident deaths (87.25%), mental illnesses (87.09%), deaths due to overwork or cardiovascular diseases (83.84%), and accidents (83.33%). They disagreed that the government's flexibilization policy, while agreeing that the necessity of policies on regulating night work (94.77%), guaranteeing wages to eliminate overtime (90.36%), establishing working time regulations for the bogus self-employed (82.84%), and applying the 52-hour workweek system to all workplaces (76.47%). These expert opinions are consistent with previous research on the health effects of working hours.

Many government offices have been proceeding a development of Enterprise Architecture(EA) according to apply Government-wide Enterprise Architecture'. Each office and working-level officials have had a hard time because of no guides related to a EA development method such as the Framework, Standards, Principle, Reference Model, Etc. This paper propose a method for developing e-Government Enterprise Architecture considered a characteristic of public institutes through analyzing existing cases. The method for development e-Government EA includes the EA Performance Management Model to monitor objectively each office's long-term business promotion because the e-Government EA development is a job of long duration and cooperation with many institutes. This method also combines the EA Change Management Activities for the officials to improve general knowledge about EA's idea and EA's value, etc. We show the EA case study of the Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs to demonstrate feasibility of our approach. As a result, public offices will carry out their BPR(Business Process Re-engineering) and ISP(Information Strategy Planning) more efficiently based on this EA development method.

The Sido.Saeol system, a local government information system cost too much for having been designed and developed during last four years but the effectiveness of this system is still open to doubt. Also maintenance cost is still too high and become increasing year by year. To find out the reasons and to suggest how to solve these problems, a service quality of an Sido Saeol system and the public servant's job satisfaction were investigated based on the Delone and McLean's updated IS success Model(2003). To investigate of the effectiveness of the Sido Saeol system, 8 variables are analyzed to test 3 main hypothesis. After all the analysis, we found that Sido.Saeol systems have many aspects to be improved for system use and job satisfaction and have to be revise in the aspects of system qualities.

In this paper we evaluate the Korean e-government portal and linked web sites, based on usability. We pick a set of 18 representative government sites, and consider two approaches of type-I and type-II testing with different questionnaires. We ask users two questions at each site, regarding simple facts. We count a task as successful if the user find the right answer for fact questions. In type-I testing, after users have finished working with a site, we give them a post-test questionnaire asking them to rate the site in 16 different areas, in order to calculate the site rating. In type-II testing, we investigate page design, contents design, and site design of the web sites.

Purpose: This study aims to understand the impact of e-commerce's advantage among SME's digital channel in Malaysia. To achieve the objective, this study used Technology, Organization, Environment (TOE) framework, Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) theory and Resource-Based View (RBV) theory. Research design, data and methodology: This study is quantitative method involve 195 SMEs online business in Malaysia. The integrated framework highlights the conceptual insight in multidimensional technology context (i.e. relative advantage, compatibility, and complexity); organizational context (i.e. top management support, innovation capability, branding capability, market-sensing capability, and human and organization capability); and environmental context (i.e. government support and supplier pressure). Results: The findings revealed that complexity, branding capability, human and organization capability, government support, and supplier pressure have significant positive relationship with e-commerce advantage. Meanwhile, relative advantage, compatibility, innovation capability, and market-sensing capability have significant negative relationship with e-commerce advantage. However, top management support has found no significant relationship with e-commerce advantage. Conclusions: The extended theoretical framework dimension improves existing knowledge on e-commerce advantage as well as the prospect of SMEs digital channel.

급격한 시대적 변화속에 각국은 전자정부 프로젝트를 적극 추진하고 있다. 전자정부의 리더십은 민간부문의 전자상거래나 e-Business 활성화를 위해서도 중요한 기반이 된다 (Jutra et al., 2002). 한국은 2002 년에 전자정부 핵심과제를 완료하여 기술기반 구축에 성공했다고 하나 전자정부 활용도는 23％로 31 개국 중 20 위이다 (TNS, 2002). 이러한 전자정부의 활용도를 높이기 위해 기술기반 확충, 고객 만족 측정, 맞춤식 설계, 리엔지니어링 등의 노력이 병행되고 있으나, 서진완(2000)에 의하면 네트워크 이용능력이 0점인 응답자가 26.9%, 정보탐색능력은 5점 척도로 3점 미만이다. 시민의 정보 리터러시(information literacy) 수준이 낮다면 의견수령에 의한 시스템 설계방식은 한계가 있을 것이다. 요컨대 의견수령 방식도 중요하지만, e-Business 의 경우와 마찬가지로 e-Government 에서도 모델에 의한 전략적 접근이 필요하다.(중략)

According to Government Phonology, at 1 phonological positions save the domain's head must be licensed in order to appear in the syllable structure. A non-nuclear head is licensed by the following nucleus, and the nuclei with phonetic content are licensed through government by the nuclear head of the domain at the level of the nuclear projection. Therefore, in the theory of Government Phonology it is claimed that words always end with a nucleus. With regard to the licensing of empty nuclei, Kaye(1990a) proposes the 'Empty Category Principle' and its sub-theory of 'Projection Government'. Government Phonology claims that a nucleus which dominates a vowel that regularly undergoes elision in certain contexts is underlyingly empty. This underlying empty nucleus is not manifested phonetically when it is properly governed by an unlicensed(i, e, a nucleus filled with a full vowel). It is when proper government fails to apply, that the empty nucleus is phonetically Interpreted. The purpose of this paper is to present a principled account of the process of $[i]{\Leftrightarrow}{\emptyset}$ alternation in Korean. Following Kaye's proposal, we assume that [i] of Korean is underlyingly empty. This position is pronounced as [i] if it is unlicensed, and is not phonetically realized if is licensed. Empty nuclei ape devided into two categories: domain-internal and domain-final. Firstly, we consider the question why Korean has little word ending with [i]. As for this, ECP states that domain-final empty nuclei are not pronounced if the language licenses domain-final empty nuclei. Whether a final empty nucleus may occur in the structure is parametric variation. This property is seen from the fact that words may appear to end in consonants in this language. Since Korean abounds with words ending in a consonant, it licenses domain-final empty nuclei. Therefore, it is quite natural that Korean has little word ending with [i]. Secondly, word-internal empty nuclei of Korean respect proper government and inter-onset government. That is, an empty nucleus in word-internal position will be pronounced with the vowel [i] if either proper government or inter-onset government fail to apply. Inter-onset government refers to the government established between two onsets across an empty nucleus. Thirdly, we consider words ending with [i], which seems to be exceptional to the final licensing. Host of them are. either mono-syllabic verbs(for instance, [s'i-] 'to write') or derived adjectives ending with [p'i] (for instance, [kip'i-] 'be happy'). As for the former, the 'inaccessibility for proper government' is applied because the empty nucleus appears in the first syllable. In latter case, domain-final empty nuclei are pronounced as [i] because of government-licensing. That is, final empty nucleus is pronounced to license the preceding onset dominating negatively charmed segments which empty nucleus of Korean cannot license.

Policy-related knowledge refers to a body of knowledge that bureaucrats and policy makers use when making decisions. In this study we conceptualize policy knowledge as intellectual infrastructure which helps to maximize efficiency with the viewpoint of policy ecosystem. The policy knowledge ecosystem covers people and organizations that participate in the production, distribution, and consumption process of the policy-related knowledge plus interactions between participants. We build the conceptual policy ecosystem model of comparative analysis, and analyze characters of e-government policy between Korea and U.S.A. The results suggest theoretical and policy implications focusing on the relevant policy knowledge is crucial for the sustainable development and growth.

Compared to other countries, cloud computing in Korea is not popular especially in the government sector. One of the reasons for the current not-fully-blossomed situation is partly by early investment in huge government datacenters under Korea's e-government initiative; let alone, there was no strong control tower as well as no enforcing law and ordinances for driving such cloud computing initiative. However, in 2015 March 'Cloud Computing and Privacy Security Act' (hereinafter, Cloud Act) had been passed in the Parliament and from September 2015 Cloud Act was deployed in Korea. In U.S., FedRAMP (Federal Risk Assessment and Management Program) along with Obama Adminstration's 'Cloud First' strategy for U.S. federal institutions is the key momentum for federal cloud computing adoption. In 2015 January, U.S. Congressional Research Service (CRS) has published an extensive monitoring report for cloud computing in U.S. federal institutions. The CRS report which monitored U.S. government cloud computing implementation is indeed a good guideline for Korean government cloud computing services. For this reason, the purpose of the study is to (1) identify important aspects of the enacted Korean Cloud Act, (2) describe recent U.S. federal government cloud computing status, (3) suggest strategy and key strategy factors for facilitating cloud adoption in public organizations reflecting SDLC strategy, wherein.
