Currently, many companies are interested in (Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). Nonetheless, technical imperfection and the uncertainty of Return on Investment (ROD is discouraging the companies' intention to implement RFID. Accordingly, while a number of companies concede the efficiency of RFID, few of them expresses enthusiasm, making a rain check to adopt RFID. Moreover, the recent economic depression has down-sized the companies' investment on Information Technology (IT), subsequently hindering RFID implementation. In adopting RFID, the collaboration of supply chain is the most importance factor. Therefore, in implementing RFID, many companies reinforced collaboration of supply chain. Therefore, this study will focus on performing an analysis on several factors which influence the intention to adoption of RFID, such as the human factor, technology factor, vender factor and task factor. The results of this study will provide useful guidelines for RFID adoption strategy to Korean companies.

We wanted to show the different group dynamics of factors for success and failure cases for technology commercialization in small technology-based firms. Existing studies are based on product level, project level, division level or firm level. We deal with technology level, and at small-technology-based firms. This is a longitudinal case study based on 8 cases from Korea. Our study on technology level is a first trial in success and failure studies unlike all existing studies. As a first step, we introduced new categories and factors such as technology attributes and CEO reflecting data, and especially a new concept of launch readiness level. Finally, we adopted correspondence analysis to show the group dynamics. The results are as follows; Technology factors are the most important factors. Second, resource-based factors are more critical in failure cases than success cases and technology factors are more critical to success.

Navy surface vessels require pier services such as emergency repair, oil supply, arm loading/unloading, craning, standby readiness, normal repair, gun arrangement, ammunition loading, and food loading during the period in port. The purpose of this study is to establish efficient berth allocation plan for navy surface vessels in home port under the limited resources of piers and equipments. This study suggests Mixed Integer Programming model for berth allocation problem, considering precedence relationships among services and the uncertainty of the arrival and departure for each vessel. For an effective analysis, the model is implemented by ILOG OPL(Optimization Programming Language) Studio 6.0 and ILOG CPLEX 11.1., which shows a reasonable result.

Base researches in geoscience and mineral resources, such as geological and geo-thematic mapping, geological survey and observation, have long-term, continuity and time-leasing characteristics and they are difficult to present the particular research stages or progressions in the research span. The Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs), developed by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), is effective for presenting research maturity levels and progression in the development of new technologies. This study suggests adjusted definitions for the Technology Readiness Levels to fit Geo-technology (Technology in Geoscience and Mineral Resources). Base geological researches, including mapping, surveys and observation, can be also presented in research levels from TRL 1 (R&D planning, literature survey) to TRL 9 (geological information construction and service in all target areas) in terms of the final product's coverage. Moreover, not only development and construction of commercial products, geological disasters and environmental researches can also be presented in field demonstrations through public pilot applications. The modified commercialization or cemonstration TRLs in Geo-technology are TRL 5 (starting pilot field application), TRL 6 (pilot field operation) and TRL 7 (pilot field operation for a larger scale, greater than ten percent of the actual environment).

This study clarifies differences in attitudes toward the Omni-Channel service (Pintech service, Beacon service, and Click and Collect service) and fashion consumption behavior among four clusters grouped by level of technology readiness. An online survey was conducted; 572 individuals between 20 and 30 years of age were collected, but only 539 were used. Factor analysis, cluster analysis, descriptive statistics, ANOVA, and frequency analysis were adopted to analyze data using SPSS 20.0. The results are as follows. Technology readiness was divided into four factors: optimism, innovativeness, discomfort, and insecurity. Participants were divided into four groups according to four sub-factors of technology readiness: brave adopters, optimistic laggards, indifferent adopters, and critical adopters. These groups showed significant differences in attitudes toward the Omni-Channel service and fashion consumption behavior. Critical adopters and brave adopters recognized the value of the Omni-Channel service and had more positive attitudes toward it than other groups. Critical adopters also better perceived the risk of service with new technology that showed higher fashion innovativeness and monthly consumption of fashion products than other groups. We inferred that the indifferent adopters did not use the Omni-Channel service or services offered by fashion retailers as much as other groups because indifferent adopters were less interested in both the Omni-Channel service and fashion consumption behavior than other groups. Optimistic laggards viewed the Omni-Channel service optimistically, despite perceptions of high risks to accompanying it and a low intent to use it. The results of this study assisted in the formation of a theoretical framework of consumer behavior associated with the Omni-Channel, which is an emerging issue in research related to distribution. The results can help fashion industries that operate consumer-oriented marketing based on Omni-Channel strategies.

Cryptocurrency, represented by Bitcoin, initially received little public attention, but recently raised global cryptocurrency investments with recognition of future value. The academic interest in cryptocurrency lies elsewhere. This is because the future value of cryptocurrency is likely to be highly applicable to the technology underlying cryptocurrency. The technology is the blockchain. The purpose of this study is to find out what factors influence logistics companies to adopt blockchain technology. Based on the TOE frame, this study presented expected profit, organizational readiness, technology compatibility, and competitive pressure as factors of adoption of blockchain technology. And the effects of these factors on the adoption intention of logistics companies were analyzed empirically. A survey was conducted on Korean logistics companies. Analysis of the collected data showed that expected profit, organizational readiness, technology compatibility, and competitive pressures influence the intention to adopt blockchain technology. Among them, however, expected profit and organizational readiness were found to have the greatest influence on adoption intention.

Vendor Managed Inventory(VMI) is a distribution channel system where the inventory at the retailer is monitored and managed by the manufacturer or vendor. By pushing the decision making responsibility further up the supply chain and centralizing the replenishment decision, the vendor can help the entire supply chain be more competitive. The purpose of this research is to explore the factors influencing the adoption of VMI by Korean manufacturers. This research proposes the IT readiness, operating cost, and information sharing as antecedents of burden for VMI, and collected the survey responses from the small-to-medium manufacturers. The statistical results indicate that only the operating cost has a significant impact on the adoption of VMI. However it has also been found that the IT readiness and information sharing have a significant effect on the operating cost. Thus indirectly influence the adoption of VMI. As a conclusion, the academic and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

There is growing interest in the function and role of public research institutes as "entrepreneurial actors" that can contribute to industrial development by commercializing excellent research outputs. On the other hand, their performance in the commercialization phase is insufficient because of the insufficient technological technology readiness level or repeatability. This study conducted probit model analysis to examine the effect of the technology readiness level and commercialization activities on the success of technology commercialization. The results showed that the possibility of success in technology commercialization increased with increasing TRL at the time of acquisition. In addition, the difference between the TRL at the time of acquisition and the current TRL (TRL Gap) does not affect technology commercialization on its own. It generates additional effects in conjunction with the TRL at the time of acquisition. Finally, the results show that technology commercialization is most likely to succeed if technology with a TRL 4-6 level is improved to TRL 9 level through a marginal effect estimation.
