Semantic web portal is expected to overcome the shortcomings of the current web portals through advanced semantic web technologies and to be an effective and efficient method of knowledge sharing. In order to contribute to the knowledge sharing, semantic web portal needs to construct and integrate ontologies of each organization. Also, it needs to support search and navigation of inter-related knowledge. In this paper, we will design a semantic web portal that satisfies such requirements in the domain of display industry, and construct an ontology which links various knowledge of different fields. Moreover, we want to suggest an effective and automatic search/navigation method that supports customers who do not know the details of an ontology to easily get the desired results.

경제의 패러다임이 지식의 확산과 공유가 경제 성장의 주요한 요소로 대두되는 지식기반경제로 변화하게 되고, 융합 기술(fusion technology)의 중요성에 대한 인식으로부터 학제간(inter-disciplinary) 연구나 기술개발이 활발해지면서, 각 산업이 타산업과 맺고 있는 특정한 연계구조에 대한 분석은 정부의 기술정책이나 기업의 기술전략 수립에 필수적인 것으로 받아들여지고 있다. 특히 산업간 지식흐름의 구조를 파악하는 것은 산업간 협력(collaboration)의 형태나 파급효과에 대한 분석뿐만 아니라 기술 혁신을 촉진하기위한 혁신 클러스터(innovative cluster) 형성의 기초를 제공하는 것이라 하겠다. 따라서 본 연구는 기술집약적 장비에 체화된 유형자원의 간접적 지식 확산이 아닌, 특허 인용의 명백한 지식 흐름을 활용하여 한국 제조업의 지식 흐름 구조를 분석하고 이를 토대로 클러스터를 나누는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위하여 특허 인용 정보가 존재하는 미국특허청(USPTO)의 자료를 이용하며, 여기에서 도출된 한국 특허의 인용관계를 통해 한국 제조업의 네트워크 및 클러스터를 생성하였다. 즉, 특허 분류를 산업 분류에 매칭(matching)시킴으로써, 특허의 인용관계를 각 특허가 속한 산업간의 지식흐름으로 변환하여 산업간 연계 구조를 파악하고 이를 토대로 한국 산업의 지식 클러스터를 생성함으로써 클러스터간 지식 흐름을 분석하고, 각 클러스터의 기술적 특성을 제시하였다. 본 연구는 한국 산업의 지식흐름을 미국특허청에 출원된 한국 특허를 활용하여 분석했다는 점에서 제기될 수 있는 해외 기술 시장으로의 전략적 차원의 출원에 의한 자료의 편중성문제와 지식흐름의 절대량이 아닌 상대량을 통해 클러스터링함으로써 발생될 수 있는 자료 활용의 한계점을 지니고 있다. 그러나 비체화 지식의 흐름을 특허인용관계를 통해 실증적으로 분석하고, 이를 통해 클러스터를 나누어 산업간 연계구조와 기간에 따른 변화 양상을 조명하며, 각 클러스터의 특성을 다양한 지표(indicators)로부터 설명했다는 데에서 의의를 찾을 수 있다. 본 연구의 결과는 기술혁신을 위한 국가 차원의 산업정책이나 기술개발과 관련한 기업의 기술전략에 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study empirically investigated the direct and indirect effects of inter-organizational relationships control mechanisms (IRCM; prudent partner selection and complex contract) on the decrease of inter-organizational risks (i.e., relational risk and performance risk). The empirical results showed that prudent partner selection has a positive impact on the degrees of inter-organizational cooperation and the levels of inter-organizational information flow. The effects of complex contract on the inter-organizational cooperation and information flow were not significant. In the results of the decrease of inter-organizational risks, it was observed that inter-organizational cooperation has significant positive effects on the decrease of both relational risk and performance risk. It was found that partner selection only influences the decrease of performance risk. The impact of inter-organizational information flow on the decrease of inter-organizational risks was not statistically significant. The indirect effects of IRCM on the decrease of performance risk through inter-organizational cooperation were also empirically demonstrated. The significant impact of inter-organizational cooperation on the decrease of risks implies that high levels of collaborations among employees decrease the risk of opportunistic behavior as well as the possibility of low degrees of performance through cooperative efforts. According to the results of the effects of risks on supply-chain performance, only the impact of performance risk was negatively significant. This result points out that the low levels of performance cause delays in delivery and product launch, deterred production and delayed market response, and these deteriorated managerial activities necessarily decrease the degrees of supply-chain performance.

This paper analyzes the characteristics of technological knowledge flow-structure of Korean manufacturing in dynamic perspective. In doing that, the concept of the knowledge network is introduced which is defined as a set of industries and their interaction(knowledge flow) or linkage. The analysis of the inter-industrial knowledge flows is based on the technological similarity by using R&D researchers' academic background in the year of 1984, 1987, 1990. The analysis is carried out by such methodology as network analysis, indicator analysis and simple statistical analysis. And the final results are drawn both in absolute terms(dimension effect) and in relative terms(proportion effect) respectively. The main findings are as follow. First, the Korean manufacturing knowledge network appears to strengthen existing inter-industrial knowledge linkages rather than to construct new linkages. Second, the network seems to form a dualistic structure in that some high-technology sectors(knowledge production sectors) emerge along with traditional sectors(knowledge absorbing sectors). Third, since the mid-1980s, an inter-industrial fusion is witnessed among technologically intensive sectors, indicating that some sophisticated innovation modes are emerging in Korean manufacturing system. And fourth, by using the relations of the inter-industrial knowledge-flows, we classified manufacturing industries into 3 type ; knowledge-outflow sector, knowledge-inflow sector and knowledge intermediary sector.

The purpose of this study is to examine whether suppliers are able to benefit by means of constructing a relationship-specific intangible asset and participating in collaboration with purchasers to actively maintain value created while mutually using inter-organizational information systems. To achieve the purpose of this study. 82 questionnaires have been analyzed from suppliers which are using electronic transactions through inter-organizational information systems. As a result, business process specificity and domain knowledge specificity, which are relationship-specific intangible assets, affect operational collaboration and strategic collaboration, which are classified by level of decision-making. Although both types of collaboration are needed to achieve both strategic and operational benefits, we find each collaboration to be uniquely promoted by a specific types of relationship-specific intangible asset. Operational collaboration is found to be an antecedent to operational benefit and strategic collaboration is found to be an antecedent to strategic benefits. No crossover between collaboration and supplier's benefits is found. Consequently, the result of this study shows collaboration is needed for domestic suppliers, which have relatively low levels of collaboration, to keep maintain relationship-specific intangible assets and to prevent the relationship termination cost when transactions have been stopped between supplier and purchaser. Also the results imply the supplier can have advantages by participating in collaboration.

This study explains the knowledge transfer process by exploring the significant factors affecting knowledge transfer within an organization from a socio-political perspective. Knowledge transfer occurs in various social contexts, within individuals and groups, and, thus, is closely linked to inter-organizational politics and social network in an organization. By conceptualizing knowledge as a socio-political process, this paper applies organizational politic theory and social network theory to knowledge management area. Here the paper shows that both organizational politics and social network such as in-group and out-group's tie strength have a significant effect on knowledge transfer. In addition, the study empirically verifies that knowledge management system has a moderating effect on the in-group's tie strength and knowledge transfer.

Regional innovation cluster is closely related to promoting innovations through activities for knowledge sharing and exchanges among organizations in an adjacent regional context. However, performance of activities for knowledge sharing and exchanges are basically influenced by cultural characteristics of the industries or regions where the organization belongs to. Therefore, knowledge management strategies in a unit of a regional cluster need to consider the cultural characteristics of an industry or region and in turn different activities need to be adopted according to cultural characteristics. This study explores the relationship between cultural differences and the performance of the activities to promote knowledge exchanges in a regional innovation cluster. For this study, factors reflecting cultural characteristics of diverse industries and regions were extracted and the relationships with the performance of the activities promoting inter-organizational knowledge exchanges were analyzed through statistical method.

The previous studies have investigated the effect of social capital on innovation performance. However, the previous studies investigating the relationship between social capital and innovation performance have assumed a black box in the linkage. According to the knowledge based view, firms with inter-dependent relationship can make innovation through sharing processes of knowledge. In other words, social capital as intangible resource results in knowledge management activities which can increase innovation performance. And increasing innovation can make relationship satisfaction promoting relationship investment gradually. Therefore, research hypotheses are made from social capital to relationship investment. From the empirical results, except for the effect of knowledge sharing on both product innovation and relationship satisfaction, almost all hypotheses are reported to be significant. And product innovation performance positively affects relationship satisfaction, and relationship investment is positively affected by relationship satisfaction. From this study, we can know the importance of knowledge management activities in strategic management view.
