Recent concerns over national and corporate competitiveness have stimulated a renewed interest in organization's performance. The organization's performance primarily depends on resources including human resources, budget, physical based resources, and so on. Especially because the relationship between organization's performance ;md individual capabilities is more evident in R & D organizations where the knowledge base is embodied in people, there has taken an increasing interest in the methodologies for measuring the capabilities of R & D personnel. This paper presents new methodological approach to measure the capabilities of R & D personnel. And the model is empirically applied to ETRI, a public R & D organization in Korea. On the basis of the results, the implications for R & D management are discussed, with regard to R & D business and human resources management.

This study aims to examine the relationship between total quality management(TQM) practices and operational performance perceived by employees who are in different functional organization types, R&D function and Non-R&D function organization in manufacturing companies. Operational performance is defined as the degree of operation efficiency in the perspective of quality, delivery, and cost. Our study showed that the significant elements of TQM practice were different depending on functional organization types. In case of R&D organization, the categories of customer focus and process management were the strongest significant predictors of operational performance. Therefore, the optimal TQM practices for R&D organization can be obtained in consideration of customer focus and process management.

Recently, knowledge management(KM) has attracted increasing attention from academicians and practitioners alike. Amongst others, technological knowledge(TK) is considered principal asset of KM and R,&D organization of private firms selves as primary actor of KM. It is also noted that the notion of sectoral pattern of innovation highlights idiosyncratic differences across industrial sectors in terms of TK management. That is, knowledge contents, knowledge generation and How pattern are considerably different among industries. This paper first analyzes the correlation between structural of R&D organization and industrial(sectoral) type to identify the dominant structure of R&D organization for each industry. Second, sector-specific architectures of TK management system are proposed. According to structural characteristic of R&D-organization type, test-practice forms of TK management system are suggested in terms of such factors as knowledge contents(technology information), knowledge generation activities, and knowledge storage/retrieval modes.

In today's R&D environment, as the complexity of IT systems increases and the expected quality level for R&D outcomes enlarges, it has been critical issues for us to effectively define and improve the R&D standard processes tailored for our organization and projects. To meet this needs, we defined the R&D standard processes based on the international standards for systems and software engineering and our existing traditional work methods, and then applied them of our ongoing projects. Now, we are improving our defined R&D standard processes continuously by monitoring of the processes and products and through the feedback of the application results. In this paper, we introduce the R&D standard process model developed by our organization (E research Institute in Korea) and the requirements and approaches used for their development and improvement. We compare our defined R&D standard processes with ISO/IEC 15288 which is the international standards for systems engineering and summarize the lessons learned through their development and improvement.

The purpose of this paper is to give policy implications for relevant policy-makers by analyzing factors affecting performance of industrial R&D programs of the Ministry of Knowledge Economy. The independent variables are type of project leader organization(Big Enterprises, SMEs, Ventures Businesses, Public Research Institutions, Universities), cooperative or noncooperative R&D among industry-university-research institution, total number of project participant organization, total R&D investment, and the ratio of private investment to total R&D investment. The dependent variables are domestic or foreign patents granted and domestic or foreign papers accepted. The method of analysis is Poisson Regression analysis operated by STATA. The results of this research are follows ; Universities show higher R&D performance compared to enterprises or public research institutions in terms of patents and papers as well. Venture businesses show higher patent performance compared to SMEs. Inverted U-shaped relationship between total number of project participant organization and R&D performance is not supported. The higher total R&D investment, the higher R&D performance. The higher the ratio of private investment to total R&D investment, the higher R&D performance.
