Because of a recent trend of the open and globalized world economy, international trade is getting bigger and there is a trade competition among many countries, resulting in competition between harbor industries. Therefore, as hub-port development of China, Japan and Taiwan is more actively progressing than any other times, Korea should prepare a powerful management system to take the initiative over them. Above all, a new recognition of the governmental officers in charge of political management about hub-port industry and early development of the northeast hub-port are needed. To maximize its distinctiveness from competitive ports, port sale should be actively managed. As well, as port functions are diverse, accompanied site development should be prepared. In conclusion, in order to improve functions of a port and develop the port as a general complex of physical distribution, the government should encourage the accompanied site development and support preparation of a customs-free area and a general system of physical distribution.

The Service sector has increased dramatically in importance over the last decade, both internationally and in the Korea. Deregulation of services, growing competition, fluctuations in high quality demand, and the application of the Information Technologies are presenting a considerable challenge to service companies. In gas or oil companies are exposed to foreign competitions, price and promotion competition with other companies. Usually Service Quality includes five dimensions: Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Empathy, and Tangibles. Customers use these five dimensions to form their judgements of service quality, which are based on a comparison between expected and perceived service. The intention of this thesis is to study on the effect of Service Quality upon the Customer Satisfaction in gas or oil station, based on SERVQUAL.

Digital convergence which means the convergence of industry areas related to digital technologies is an important phenomenon in business, which will decide the fates of firms in the near future. The only firms which can create synergy effects from digital convergence are expected to be the winners in the fierce competition of digital convergence era. In our analysis, we examine the strategy of an integrated firm which has businesses in two different industry areas which are related to each other. By using a game theoretical model, we show how the integrated firm can win over two single separated firms which have business in only one industry area each by leveraging the two businesses the integrated firm has. In our welfare analysis, we also show that this convergence may be even beneficial to consumers, which seems counter-intuitive to social concerns about anti-competitive behaviors by integrated firms. Additionally, we study comparison between industry convergence and product convergence.

Purpose - Transnational corporations (TNCs) have influenced drastic changes (financial services, manufacturing, labor, technology transfer) in Central Eastern Europe (CEE). This paper examines the indirect changes in the CEE pattern of industrial development and market distribution. Research design, data, and methodology - Over 25 years, neighboring (or rival) countries competed to attract TNCs as a double-edged strategy for privatization and debt reduction. Through their experience attracting foreign direct investment (FDI), many countries started to reflect aspects of national capitalism. Countries also began to realize in 2010 that TNCs sought to enter markets with more favorable conditions for export-oriented manufacturing. Results - The analysis reveals that TNC investment strategies were aimed at eliminating local competition to acquire industrial "brown fields" to convert into "green fields." CEE countries have since strengthened their national systems and the support of large-scale state-owned enterprises and small and medium-sized start-up enterprises. Conclusions - CEE has changed based on industrial development and a regional structure of TNC market distribution and associated government policies. The pattern toward flexible markets gives countries the ability to further their economies.

The growing mobile products market is expected energy efficiency. So product design is more important focusing on reducing power consumption than improving technology of color sense. A Organic light emission diode is in limelight of the best display to satisfy market expectation. A Organic light emission diode is achieved low power consumption, pixel response which was fast for its time, high contrast of brightness and wide color reproduction raio. Therefore there is a fierce competition for the organic light emission diode development between a country and another country over business. The technical value's life is short because of a fierce development competition, and there is little probability that technical success become business success. In this study, the purpose is reduce the time for life test by accelerated current and it can do production possible design by accelerated life model in design phase.

본 연구는 지방의료원의 경쟁 수준의 정도를 측정하여 재무성과와의 관련성 분석 후 효과적인 경영전략을 수립할 수 있는 기초자료를 제공하는데 있다. 조사기간은 지방의료원의 HHI(허핀달-허쉬만)지수와 경영성과를 알 수 있는 2010년부터 2012년까지 3년간을 평가기준으로 하였으며, 총 31개의 의료원을 조사대상으로 선정하였다. 결론을 보면, 집중시장일수록 재무성과가 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 지역 내 경쟁정도와 재무지표 간의 유의한 상관관계가 나타났다. 지방의료원은 지역 내 경쟁력과 공공성을 확보하기 위한 정책수립과 실행을 위해서는 지역 의료시장의 경쟁정도와 그에 따른 추이를 파악이 요구된다. 지방의료원이 타 의료기관관의 경쟁력의 우위를 선점하기 위해서는 의료서비스 제공의 향상과 자본 투자 등의 선별적인 전략이 고려되어야 할 것이다.

Contemporary smartphone competition is generally described as the battle between Apple's proprietary platform and Google's open platform. However, this competition is not limited within smartphone adoption itself. User's pre-adoption of one mobile platform via smartphone can be connected to the post-adoption of the same mobile platform based on the other smart devices (e.g. smart pad). In this study, we investigate whether user's preference to a certain platform is persistent over mobile ecology, from the pre-adoption of one smart device to the post-adoption of following devices. For this investigation, we adopt the dual-model as the ground theory, where post-adoption of IT product is explained by both dedication and constraint factors. The empirical testing first evidences that dual model works well as our research model for identifying the reasons of post-adoption. Next, we group our data into two parts in order to compare the switching behavior of iPhone users and Android phone users. iPhone users show much lower switching rate to Android based smart pads, while Android phone users show higher churn rate to iPad (49.3% : 96.3%). Especially, satisfaction showed much stronger effect than switching cost on the continuing intention of existing platform, when the analysis is given to the iPhone user's group. From this result, we can conjecture the relatively stronger loyalty of iPhone users. More managerial implications on the mobile platform strategy are driven.

Purpose - This paper analyzes the effect of the handset subsidy and the Mobile Number Portability subscriber subsidy regulation, which are the main regulation adopted in "Law on the Improvement of the Mobile Terminal Distribution System" (Mobile Terminal Distribution Act), on the social surplus, the consumer surplus and profits of telecommunications carriers. We focus our analysis on whether the service charge competition is stimulated enough so that it can compensate for the loss of subsidies. Research design, data, and methodology - We use simple economic model to assess the impact of the handset subsidy and the Mobile Number Portability subscriber subsidy regulation. Unlike the former researches on this topic, we depart from using Hotelling model, and instead use the switching cost model, which uses switching cost as a parameter of market powers of telecommunications carriers. We also study the effect of the two different regulations when they are adopted both independently and concurrently. Results - If the market powers of telecommunications carriers are over certain threshold, contrary to the regulatory agency's assertion, the service charge competition would not be stimulated enough to compensate for the deduction in the subsidies, and thus the consumer surplus is compromised. Number Portability subsidy, especially, undermines the rival's market power and thus reduces the service charge. On the other hand, the regulations will also increase the profits of telecommunications carriers. However, social surplus is maximized when both of the regulations are present because the regulations reduces the frequency of switching handsets inefficiently. Conclusions - In enacting the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act, the telecommunications regulatory agency asserted that the regulation on subsidies will stimulate service charge competition, and in the long run, enhance the consumer surplus. However, contrary to the regulatory agency's assertion, subsidy regulation, especially the regulation on Number Portability subsidy, reduces consumer surplus. On the other hand, the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act can also increase the profits of telecommunications carriers because it decreases competition among the telecommunications carriers. However, the Mobile Terminal Distribution Act can increase the social surplus because it reduces inefficient switching of handsets.

중국이 명실상부한 세계적 강대국으로 부상하고 있다. 2011년 현재 보편적 국력으로 보았을 때 중국은 미국 다음으로 강한 국력을 가진 국가로 아시아를 넘어 세계적인 패권국으로 성장하고 있다. 중국이 이와 같은 강대국으로 부상하면서 동아시아에서 미국중심의 국제정치질서가 도전받고 있으며, 특히 동아시아 해양패권을 놓고 기존의 패권국인 미국과 경쟁이 본격화 되고 있다. 이러한 중국과 미국과의 경쟁은 동아시아의 해양을 무대로 진행되고 있어 해양을 통해 국가의 안전과 번영을 유지하고 있는 해양국가인 한국의 안보에 직접적인 영향을 미치고 있다. 중국의 부상에 따른 동아시아 해양에서의 미-중 군사경쟁 배경과 현황, 그리고 이러한 경쟁이 동아시아와 한국안보에 미치는 영향과 대책을 모색해 본다.
