  • Lately, the importance of social responsibility of venture companies is becoming highlighted in Korea.This study is to empirically suggest that the practice of social responsibility by venture companies will become the foundation for formation of the organizational trust and for the sustainable growth of the organization. The certification on social responsibility for venture companies has been conducted for past five year and based on the research on difference of organizational validity on companies that are certified and non-certified by its practice of social responsibility, we've found organizational trust difference in two groups; the companies that already formed organizational trust did not have new mediation effect due to organizational commitment but the non-certified companies that did not have organization trust created new medication effect from organizational commitment. This can be understood that the organizational commitment effect through social responsibility is already formed for companies that have created organizational trust through social responsibility certification. The organizational infrastructure is needed for sustainable growth and development of an organization; therefore, the differentiated organizational trust for social responsibility certified organization will become the infrastructure for growth of the certified organizations.

  • The Purpose of this research is to draw implications of Multi-Functions of social welfare facilities on non-public social welfare delivery system especially in the rural area where there is not enough welfare infrastructure. The policy formation process of social welfare facilities was reviewed with 'Modified Policy Streams Framework" which combined Kingdon's Model with Mucciaroni's Model. Multi-Functions Policy of Social Welfare Facilities was led by the government with background of powerful President's initial stage of taking the power and finally legislated by amending Social Welfare Service Act in line with efficiency of non-public social welfare delivery system. However, the process did not represent the summation of needs originated from social work practice. The government just play the role of collecting some evidence underpinning the necessity of multi-functions of social welfare facilities and rearanging how to deploy the multi-functions policy. As the result the multi-functions policy is not activated and is not able to be the key criteria in expanding social welfare infrastructure. However, in spite of these limitation, the issue of multi-functions of social welfare facilities can cast the light on expanding infrastructure in the rural area where the gross size of area in larger in comparison to the district in the metropolitan city whereas residents are scattered because more number of social welfare facilities can not be the solution due to the limitation of finance and logic of efficiency.

  • In this study, a GIS-supported system is used to measure the effect of social infrastructure improvements. Benefit evaluation approach is based on two types of approaches -the simple hedonic approach and Rosen's two step approach. The land attribute data for both approaches are efficiently collected and generated in a GIS-supported environment. Moreover, it conveys more objective and correct data. The benefits are estimated on real locations by using GIS. The potentiality of the developed system for practical application has been verified by its application to Joban New Line in Tokyo metropolitan area. By incorporating benefit evaluation routines into GIS, the proposed system will be a useful tool for decision making on the improvements of social infrastructure.

  • The purpose of this study is to secure reasonable transportation infrastructure stock for enhancing national competitiveness in Korea. National competitiveness may be defined as a country's overall capacity to create the most effective social structure, institutions and policies that allow her company within the national boundary to be more competitive in the world market. If Korea's transportation infrastructure stock is not sufficient and a connection among transportation facilities is not efficient, we should pay the social and economic cost. As a result, we worry that national competitiveness may drop. Some methods to maintain or to increase the national investment for transportation infrastructure that are suggested from this study are as follows: Firstly, we need to operate the Spcial Account for Traffic Facilities. Secondly, the investment should be focused on the facilities and districts in needs. Thirdly, PFI (private finance initiative) policy should be aimed at investing for the highly economic-valued projects.

  • Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has the potential to provide economic opportunities and help raise the social and political status of countries. For developing countries, ICT can be used as a tool for economic growth and social advancement in a short period of time. The benefits of ICT, however, are not only economic in nature. It can help improve professional skills, teaching quality, job creation, agricultural production, community involvement, and information use, personal relationships, and time use. These benefits are examples of how ICT has become an indispensable part of our lives. Myanmar is a developing country and is ranked low in the ICT Development Index. In terms of ICT development, Myanmar today is facing many issues such as a lack of telecommunication infrastructure, ICT awareness, electricity, and budget for ICT development. Among the economic reforms implemented by the recent government, the telecommunications sector has been opened up as a measure of economic reform. As a result of this reform, the telecommunications sector has been growing rapidly. Myanmar, however, remains behind other Asian countries. This paper discusses Myanmar's ICT infrastructure status, progress that has been made in the country's telecommunications over the last fifteen years, and the challenges that lie ahead.

  • With the social infrastructure being deteriorated, there is a growing need to introduce the asset management to social infrastructure management in order to increase their value and save budget. Social infrastructure asset management is a new concept of facility management in response to these demands. It is defined as a procedure for collecting and analysing facility maintenance data and for making and practicing an economically optimized management plan. Detailed survey work of asset management business is analyzed in order to derive a strategy for asset management information. The contents of IIMM of New Zealand and the asset management definition of the FHWA of the United States, and representative facility management systems of Korea are analysed. The role between organizations and the relationship between business and organization were analyzed. Information required for asset management and for existing facility management systems is compared with business of asset management. In this thesis, three development strategies are suggested. The first one is to develop core business of asset management while excluding duplicated development. The second one is to divide system's structure into three layers. And the last one is to share information by interfacing asset management systems with existing facility management systems.

  • Shared value enhances the competitiveness of a company while simultaneously reducing societal burdens. By allowing companies to share their resources, collaborative logistics systems provide companies with an opportunity to create shared value, namely, not only economic value by enhancing the utilization of resources, but also social value by reducing energy consumptions and greenhouse gas emissions associated with logistics and transportation. Emerging businesses, such as ES3 and Flexe, have recently demonstrated how they created shared value through collaborative logistics services, for example, ES3's collaborative warehousing and direct-to-store (D2S) program, and Flexe's on-demand warehousing platform. However, the development of collaborative logistics systems is currently at a nascent stage. There are quite a few socio-technical barriers to overcome for sharing resources (data as well as infrastructure). Drawing on the socio-technical approach, this research examines how companies create both economic and social value from collaborative logistics systems. We highlight socio-technical barriers, particularly one set of social barriers, that is, competition-oriented conservatism prevalent among companies. Using the case study methodology and interview data, we closely investigate ES3 and Flexe, which provide collaborative logistics services, and demonstrate how technical and social barriers are addressed to create shared value from collaborative logistics systems.

  • In this paper, we aim to propose cyber security considerations and countermeasures for infrastructure and services in the UAM(Urban Air Mobility) Air Traffic Management field, which is one of the key elements of the UAM market that has not yet bloomed. Air traffic management is an important factor for safe navigation and social acceptance of UAM. In order to realize air traffic management, infrastructure and services based on solid network connectivity must be established. And for industries where connectivity is the core component, it can become an infiltration route for cyber threats. Therefore, cyber security is essential for the infrastructure and services. In detail, we will look into the definition of the existing air traffic management field and the cyber threats. In addition, we intend to identify cyber security threat scenarios that may occur in the newly designed UAM air traffic management infrastructure. Moreover, in order to study the cyber security countermeasures of the UAM air traffic management infrastructure, there will be analysis of the UAM operation concept. As a result, countermeasures applicable to the infrastructure and service fields will be suggested by referring to the cyber security frameworks.
