Recently, some universities and university libraries have implemented performance management system as a part of managerial innovation, and they have either implemented or are considering implementing BSC. Thus there are needs to develop performance indicator, which is a tool measuring performance of university libraries, based on BSC, and to assess the developed performance indicator's relative weights to analyze which indicators are essential to fulfill and improve the university library's mission. The performance indicators are also affected by the characteristics and perspectives of the people who develop them during the development process. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the differences among the professional groups in relative weighting of the performance indicator. The purposes of this study are to derive a university library performance indicator model based on BSC, to analyze the importance of each evaluation factor of the derived performance indicator model, and to analyze the differences among the professional groups in relative weighting of the performance indicator model.

This study establishes key success Predictors of internet venture enterprises in Korea. The five factors are derived from the relevant literature and clarified the concept of entrepreneurship, industrial level, enterprise strategy, organizational capability, and resource procurement by distinguishing between its components and determinants. Organizational performance indicators were derived from the previous studies classifying by financial performance indicator and non-financial performance indicator using by recent evaluation method as BSC (Balanced Scorecard). We then examine the impact of critical success factors on the internet venture performance. Hypotheses on five factors of internet venture were tested for 103 organizations. Results indicate that critical success factors may serve as key predictors. Organizational strategy and resource capability was found to be positively influenced on both financial performance indicator and non-financial performance indicator while entrepreneurship, industrial level and organizational capability positively affected only non-financial performance indicator.

Recently, researches on the performance warranty contracting has been going on to improve construction quality in road pavement area. The performance warranty contracting gives construction companies opportunity to select materials and methods freely while asks them to maintain a certain level of performance during a given period. To introduce the performance warranty contracting in Korea, lots of research results on performance indicator and threshold value of asphalt pavement have been made to be included in the warranty specification. However, research effort on the performance indicator and threshold value of concrete pavement which is commonly constructed in expressway and national highway has not been enough. In this study, the warranty duration, performance indicator, and threshold value of the concrete pavement were investigated by reviewing literatures on cases of the performance warranty contracting in European countries and states of the US. Major distresses influencing the performance of jointed concrete pavement were investigated and analyzed to be compared to the warranty duration, performance indicator, and threshold value of foreign countries.
