The Japan National Committee for the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) and UICC-Asia Regional Office (ARO) organized an international session as part of the official program of the 72nd Annual Meeting of the Japanese Cancer Association to discuss the topic "What is cost-effectiveness in cancer treatment?" Healthcare economics are an international concern and a key issue for the UICC. The presenters and participants discussed the question of how limited medical resources can be best used to support life, which is a question that applies to both developing and industrialized countries, given that cancer treatment is putting medical systems under increasing strain. The emergence of advanced yet hugely expensive drugs has prompted discussion on methodologies for Health Technology Assessment (HTA) that seek to quantify cost and effect. The session benefited from the participation of various stakeholders, including representatives of industry, government and academia and three speakers from the Republic of Korea, an Asian country where discussion on HTA methodologies is already advanced. In addition, the session was joined by a representative of National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) of the United Kingdom, which has pioneered the concept of cost-effectiveness in a medical context. The aim of the session was to advance and deepen understanding of the issue of cost-effectiveness as viewed from medical care systems in different regions.

This study investigated the effects of selected seaweeds on rice koji preparation (rice inoculated with Aspergillus luchuensis) and enzyme activity. Four types of rice koji were prepared using one of three seaweeds (0.5% laver, 0.5% kelp and 0.5% green laver) or a control for 72 h. The changes in the moisture content, water activity, pH, total mold cell count, amylase and protease activities were measured. During preparation, there was no significant difference in the moisture content among the four kojis, whereas the pH in the kojis made with either laver or green laver decreased rapidly compared with the control (P<0.05). This seemed to result from the seaweeds promoting the growth of mold cells. In terms of the activities of both amylase and protease, the koji with laver was superior. Subsequently, the amylase and protease activities of the koji made with laver were evaluated at various pHs (3 to 9), temperatures ($15-55^{\circ}C$) and NaCl concentrations (0-10%). The activities of both enzymes decreased notably at pH 9 and the protease activity decreased at temperatures above $45^{\circ}C$. Although the activities of both enzymes decreased at greater than 2.5% NaCl, activity was present at 10% NaCl.

Short-term agricultural machinery rental system has been operated by agricultural extension organization of local government (agricultural technology center) and sponsored by Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs, to improve utilization efficiency and save agricultural production cost through joint utilization of agricultural machinery. This study was conducted to analyze current status of the rental system operation and provide recommendations for future direction. Question survey was conducted for officers in charge of the rental system in the technology center, and strategic improvement was suggested through importance performance analysis (IPA). Survey results showed that 11 issues should be reformed or improved by 2015, which is not practically feasible. IPA analysis resulted that administration and manpower support, cooperation between federal and local organizations, and cooperation with other organizations should be focused for successful operation of the rental system. Issues that seem to happen after 2015 need to be handled as future research.

The photovoltaic (PV) industry, which occupies about 80% share of domestic new and renewable energy (NRE) sales, has played an important role in the development of the Korean NRE industry. This was made possible by the government's implementation of the 3rd Basic New and Renewable Energy Plan, which promoted strategic PV R&D, infrastructure building, and a variety of PV deployment programs. For instance, 'One Million Green Homes', 'Feed in Tariff', and 'Renewable Portfolio Standards' programs contributed greatly to the dissemination of PV systems in the country. Furthermore, these programs were supported with more than 380 billion Won over 6 year period (2007~2012). The strategic PV R&D contributed to the fast follow-up in commercial technologies. Because of the recent, sharp decline in PV prices caused by oversupply and economic crisis in European countries, both foreign and domestic PV companies are going through painful restructuring. Under these circumstances, the Korean PV industry needs to find a new strategy for making a breakthrough, and in this sense a proactive role of the Korean government is desperately needed.

This study analyzes patent trends regarding farming-related technologies such as breeding or nursery technology, production systems, and new cultivation methods in order to provide objective patent information about the trends of R&D on marine products' proliferation or farming. Presently, in Korea, we try to secure marine living resources through the formation of artificial resources instead of environmental improvement policy or resource management policy. However, this is not about eliminating the causes of marine environment destruction but just the policy for improvement, so it is needed to revise the related policy with more ultimate measures. And it is necessary to develop technology that can secure the rights by integrating patent application strategies from the stage of R&D for medicine that can be utilized in chief farming countries and provide intensive support for the research centering around strategic varieties for farming in each region as well as strategic national farming varieties afterwards. Also, the analysis shows that it is urgent to make applications overseas based on domestic applications in order to develop technology that can be commercialized in not just Korean but overseas market as well.

The aim of this project is to develop an adaptive and collective National Marine Biotechnology Plan for the next decade(2014~2023) which is able to reflect current and future changing environment. This effective strategy targets to foster marine-derived active bio-materials, marine bioenergy production technology and many promising technologies in order to promote marine biotechnology industry as a next-generation growth engine. Marine biotechnology industry based on R&D activities since 1980 has been growing as an emerging industry. This new field enables to secure exclusive patent rights and to find new potential bio-active materials from the ocean that requires long-term aggressive R&D investments. The current policy direction is to raise appropriate level of R&D investment because the current Korea's national marine biotechnology R&D fund ratio is less than 2% of the total national biotechnology R&D budget. The result shows three major strategies. First, it recommended a research implementation system and supporting policy that includes establishment of open innovation framework for the 'Industry-Academia-Research Institute Collaborations', strategic research planning and enhanced policy making process. Second, it derived state-of-the-art or new technology in many areas. Third, it formulated more detailed execution plans for successful R&D support and set up performance indicator system in related R&D program.

In this study, we investigated the quality characteristics of madeleine combined with lyophilized red snow crab Chionoecetes japonicus leg-meat powder (CM). The madeleine was prepared by the addition of wheat flour containing 0, 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20% concentrations of CM. Moisture content, pH, and baking loss rate did not differ significantly among groups. Light coloration significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner, while red and yellow coloration significantly increased. Hardness, chewiness and gumminess significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner, while cohesiveness, springiness and adhesiveness did not differ from CON (madeleine containing 0% CM). In terms of sensory characteristics, appearance and color did not differ compared to CON, while taste, flavor and overall preference increased in a dose-dependent manner, with CM10 having the highest score among the groups. The present study assesses the potential of this improved formula as a convenience food.

In this paper, we propose an approach to evaluating the performance of the national R&D investment in IT(Information Technology) areas in terms of paper, patent and commercialization, and seeking ways to improve the efficiency of the national R&D investment. This is because the government has focused the national R&D investment on IT areas for some time. For that purpose, we gather data on investments, papers, patents, and commercializations for the government sponsored R&D projects in IT areas through National Science & Technology Information Service. From which, we summarize the investment and performance in terms of papers, patents, and commercializations for each IT area, evaluate efficiency per R&D investment for each IT area, and compare the efficiencies among IT areas. Finally, we drive implications for efficiency enhancement and strategic R&D budget allocation for each IT area.

According to increasing dependancy of national competitiveness on her level of science and technology, the Korean Government devote herself to expansion of technological capability in nation-wide. As a result, the numbers and sizes of national R&D programs, one of public technology policies, are abruptly increased. Recently, the government closely examines the introduction of performance-based budgeting regime as well as the accountability issue in public sector. In the fulfillment of accountability, it has considerable importance that the government executes measurement and strategic management of their performances of all the national R&D programs, how they are properly executed in conformity with respective missions and characteristics. It needs a tool for clearly measuring the programs' performances. In this study, the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is suggested as an alternative. However, the logics of ordinary BSC cannot be directly applied to the program unit. This study reviews the basic concept and principles of BSC and discusses the necessary conditions for proper application of BSC into national R&D programs.
