In order to enhance the performance of National R&D program, it is required not only the R&D funds and human resources, but also the composition of the research environment in which the researchers could fully concentrate on study. Particularly in Korea, executive burdens that arise in the course of the administration of research fund are frequently causing difficulties in concentrating on study. To remove this burden on financial management and maximize the efficiency of research funding, the government has implemented the central management system of the R&D fund. This study analyzed the moderating effects of the centralized management system of the R&D fund on the relationship between government fund and performance of the university research. Based on the analyzed result, this study concluded that the higher level of centralized management system of the R&D fund is implemented, the more influence on research outcomes grow. This study is significant to extend previous research point of view, as well as analyze the practical effect of government policies.

Nowaday, management of research and development(R&D) projects is focused on promotion of performance-centric R&D by market and customer-oriented R&D and commercialization, and this tendency is also appeared in national R&D projects. For the commercialization of R&D outcomes, market demand-centric R&D, establishment of commercialization plan in R&D planning and carrying out phase, and communication with external stakeholders are needed, and these activities can be performed more effectively by developing business model. However, systematical procedure for developing business model in national R&D environment haven't suggested by prior researches. Therefore, we propose a business model development system that is reflect characteristics of national R&D environment and perspectives of technology researchers and commercialization experts. Research result is expected to be usefully applied as a guideline for developing business model in national R&D projects.

This study attempted to analyze technology convergence structure and key technology research sectors in bio-health. For this, network analysis was performed based on the patent outcomes achieved through national R&Ds. Then, a patent network was analyzed to derive problems and collect data from the National Science & Technology Information Service. With the five groups obtained through the analysis of IPC network and national R&D patents in bio-health based on a research frame network, topics were chosen based on the bio-healthcare technology system. Then, the technology with the greatest ripple effects was derived and compared to other sectors, suggesting a direction for national R&D investments. It is anticipated that this study would make a contribution to a search for R&D investment direction by additionally analyzing overseas patent data and improving correlation analysis between technology convergence and government-led R&D expenses.

The Korean government's R&D budget has risen steadily annually, reaching 24.2 trillion won in 2020, and the ratio of R&D expenditure to GDP ranked high among OECD countries. However, national science and technology innovation ranked low among OECD countries. This study focused on Korean government-funded research institutes in the field of science and technology by analyzing the effects of budget and workforce input on research performance in order to provide directions for management. Multiple regression analysis was conducted with budget and workforce input as independent variables, which influence major research outcomes (SCI paper, patent, royalty). In the research budget, only government contribution had a positive effect on SCI thesis performance, and the increase in the government project and private project funding had a negative effect on the number of patents and technology royalties. For the workforce, the positive effect of regular workers on all research achievements was 3-6 times more than that of non-regular workers. Through this study, policy implications such as establishment of institutional performance indicators according to research types were derived for the outcome driven management of government-funded research institutes in the field of science and technology.

Recently, the Korean government has been making efforts to achieve 'creative economy' based on science and technology. As part of these efforts, it has been promoted specific policies for innovation and performance enhancement of national R&D projects. They contains commercialization of research outcomes, technology transfer, technology based startup and support small and medium-sized businesses. The railroad transportation industry is a representative in the field of SOC and has own characteristics different from other industry areas. Especially, industry and market of railroad transportation are directly related to planning and implementation of government SOC policies. So in order to promoting commercialization of railroad transportation projects, it is very important to ensure consistency between government policies and R&D projects. In this paper, we investigate barriers of successful commercialization with typical researchers in the area of railroad transportation, and suggest problems and improvements of policy-based commercialization by giving specific examples.

The growth of disaster/accident damage costs and related industries has increased the necessity of scientific and objective performance analysis for fire suppression and disaster management R&D projects. Most of R&D performance are both academic and public performance according to fire suppression and disaster management R&D projects during the period of 2004 to 2011. This research identified characteristics of performance types by research project teams and research development stages. The research outcome shows the usefulness of relevant performance objective settings by project teams, the evaluation of scientific technology fields, and proper research teams in research team selection process, considering research outcome characteristics by both research teams and research development stages. In addition, this research reveals the applicability of research outcomes to research performance management. This research suggests further studies for evaluation process and methods for including fire suppression and disaster management characteristics to the evaluation process.

The international trends in activities of government R&D performance measurement is evolving into evidence-based approach to support the verification of objective policy implementation. The European Commission has been implementing KETs (Key Enabling Technologies) policy that incubates nanotech based emerging technologies to support the fourth industrial revolution/revitalization of high-tech manufacturing, and resulting innovations are quantified by KETs Observatory project. The European Commission also built Innovation Radar system that monitors potentially innovative projects within FP7 and Horizon2020 by data analysis. The United States is also upgrading its Federal RePORTER system to quantitatively monitor federal R&D investments with outcomes (including nanotechnology). In the field of Korean nanotechnology, basic statistical data by analyzing NTIS (National Science & Technology Information Service) information is applied in policy field. Developing innovation measurement methodology beyond basic statistical analysis is an international policy issue, and a long-term R&D investment area of a government. The objective of this model study is to quantify the innovation potential of nano R&D investments conducted by Korea government, using input-output based efficiency measurement model and NTIS (National Science & Technology Information Service) that is comprehensive data portal for national R&D investments/outcomes including nanotechnology.

The objectives of not-for-profit organizations including government supported research institutes are, by definition, to achieve socially desired nonfinancial goals. Current reporting focuses on providing information to meet the needs of users. This information may be provided in the annual research report, financial report, and other reports. An objective of current reporting is to provide users with information that will assist them in evaluating the performance(efficiency and effectiveness) of reporting entity. The evaluation of R&D project's performance requires information not only about the acquition and use of resources, but also about the outputs and outcomes of R&D activities, This study aims to recommend that R&D Service Efforts and Accomplish- mints(SEA) reporting is useful for performance evaluation in national R&D programmes. To achieve this aims, I attempt to develop the R&D SEA measures with reference to the Concepts Statement No. 2 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. R&D SEA measures consist of five categories : (1) input measures, (2) outcome measures, (3) output measures, (4) re1a1e efforts to accomplishments, (5) explanatory information.

This study investigates how cognitive and affective conflict affect performance and social outcomes in the new product situation. We examine the corporate, project, and personal characteristics that determine the level of inter-functional conflict between marketing and R&D. From a survey of Korean high-tech companies, we found : (1) time pressure was positively related to cognitive and affective conflict, (2) joint reward systems, interdepartmental connectedness, and years of education were negatively associated to cognitive conflict, (3) while cognitive conflict was positively related to new product creativity and NPD performance, affective conflict was negatively associated to marketing-R&D integration and perceived effectiveness of the relationship, as well as new product creativity and NPD performance.
