Based on the development of IT(information technology), the explosive diffusion and growth of the new media and services in Korea has attracted keen international attention. The construction of IT infrastructure driven by the proactive social informatization policy of the government has also been spectacular. Korea has persistently pursued strong 'new media-informatization policy' with three main objectives in mind: 1)Industrial-economic value creation; 2)socio-cultural value creation; and 3)building of the knowledge society-knowledge state. But its consequence is rather paradoxical. While its performance is excellent in terms of quantity growth of industry and technology, quality development of society, culture and knowledge creation is lagging far behind. This paradoxical outcome originates, not from any simple policy error, but from a structural problem inherent in new media-informatization policy in Korea which has long been captured by developmentalism. In order for Korea to harvest the reward of strong new media-informatization infrastructure, it needs to institute a policy structure based on a knowledge IT strategy such as research and development of core and patent technologies, design and production of quality contents, networking knowledge bases of society, etc.

The purpose of this study is to present an objective basis for the entry point of a knowledge-based economy, that is used by quantitative analysis to serve as 'The Result of Wage Structure Survey' and 'Sample Design for Survey Report on Labor Conditions by Employment Type' of the Ministry of Employment & Labor. Entry criteria for a knowledge-based society, through the definition of a Bell and Toffler, was defined by the number of information workers more than the number of physical workers, and the information workers were classified by knowledge workers. To redefine the definition of Porat's typology of information workers, Korea Standard Classification of Occupation is classified by the job of knowledge, service, industry and agriculture. The result of the analysis is appeared the entry point of a knowledge-based economy by workers structural changes and annual wage structure changes has identified empirically-year 1980 the United States more than 20 years later in 2000. In addition, the economic contribution of knowledge occupation was confirmed to be the biggest by measuring the economic contribution of occupation classification in the knowledge society.

Under the knowledge-based economy, the function of university as an institution to create and diffuse new knowledge and technology is emphasized than ever before. Today, universities around the world find themselves going beyond the traditional roles of research and teaching to drive the development of local economies through collaborations with industry. This study aims to examine the university-industry collaboration and identify the aspects of knowledge transfer and exchange between university and external agencies and intends to explain in particular how the knowledge transfer of the university affects the innovation and competitive advantage of regional businesses. The analysis on the case study of Chonnam National University focusing on the knowledge transfer, in particular examined through the contracted or commissioned researches suggests that only a small portion of the knowledge generated by the university is transferred to Gwangju and Jeonnam region, thus it can be seen that knowledge transfer of Chonnam National University partially affects the development of the regional economy. However, it is analyzed that this knowledge transfer differs somewhat depending on the client's sectors and the contents of research contracts.

This study aims to investigate how tie strength in business networks affects successful knowledge sharing, as well as the impact of environmental uncertainty on the relationship between knowledge sharing and tie strength. We gathered data through a questionnaire-based survey of 310 employees affiliated with a high-technology industry in Korea. The results highlighted the positive influence of strong ties on tacit knowledge sharing and weak ties on explicit knowledge sharing. Additionally, in this study, we determine that strong ties are strengthened to share tacit knowledge with exchange parties when environmental uncertainty is high, whereas weak ties may remain unaffected by environmental uncertainty. This study contributes to the literature on tie strength and knowledge sharing by applying social capital theory to a high-technology industry. The findings suggest that firms must take advantage of strong and weak ties to facilitate knowledge sharing to enhance competency, create novel knowledge, and obtain a competitive advantage.

One of the oldest chestnuts in economic geography is this: Cultural and creative industries strongly gather in large cities and this geographic concentration of economic activities leads to regional development. Of course, depending on the circumstances, such a proposition still holds good. But, under the current paradigm shift to knowledge-based economy, it may be open to question. This study aims to investigate financing and knowledge accumulation in the film industry through an alternative framework for explaining their spatial distributions, "formation mechanism of economic space." From the fact that their production organizations are formed on a project basis, project-based financing structure in the investment stage and knowledge accumulation process in the production stage form both axes of it. Film industry as the most mature industry among the cultural and creative industries does not always concentrate in a certain place (industrial agglomeration) or show metropolis-oriented preference. This allows us to reconsider our long brooding theory.

With the development of IT industry and formation of web-based knowledge sharing platform, a variety of railway-related information services on the web have emerged, ranging from personal blogs to dedicated portal sites, as in the other sectors. These services are contributing to advancing railway industry after all. As far as it is concerned with specific areas such as railway sector, the internet users are hardly expected to avail satisfactory results in acquiring customized information from the access, as the information served varies on the intension of the web site operator or relevant agency, and indexing categories and sub-categories is not easy to work out in a straight manner. This study will review on the feasibility of standardizing categories and sub-categories for railway industry information on the web, and present optimum categorization and sub-categorization approach for the most satisfactory results when searched, ultimately aiming at laying a foundation to satisfy the wide spectrum of users' need for railway information.

The value of intangible assets of a company attracts attention in enterprise management environment drastically changing. Following such a trend, many companies have adopted knowledge management. Especially in construction industry of which success of a project is easily affected by the capacity of various participants and work performers, we may find many cases to which the knowledge managements have been adopted. However, the domestic design companies have tended to be late to introduce the knowledge management or have difficulty in effective use of KMS already constructed. This study suggests KMS based on BPM (Business Process Management) and drives its effects to improve problems mentioned above. We drives the expected effects by studying the existing studies and surveying domestic design companies and suggests Prototype for introducing a real system.

This study examined the relative industry competence of Kyunggi regional area. The LQ index was applied to estimate the competence of 11 culture contents. In the case of the amount of revenue, cartoon, characters, knowledge information, and publishing showed a relative high competence over LQ 1.0. Regarding the number of companies, cartoon, music, game, character, and knowledge information showed LQ of more than 1.0. The criteria of the number of employees indicated publishing, cartoon, game, character industry to be significant. The common LQ index result of 3 criteria suggested cartoon and character industry to be influential. This indicates that the flow among knowledge, information and person in a regional industry cluster are most important for promoting industry core competence.
