Technical change and technological innovation have become major drivers of economic progress in the knowledge oriented economies where growth, productivity, and competitiveness are increasingly based on improved technologies, novel products, upgraded processes or customized services. The creation of new knowledge, modifying or improving existent knowledge, or imitation of others, has become central to economic development. New discoveries, state-of-the-art information gathering procedures, or successful problem solving routines are often at he core of these innovations. Despite the generally acknowledged importance of science in many high-tech areas of major economic relevance, there is few science-related statistics to be found in high-profile international benchmarking reports. This paper aims to provide an answer by advancing our understanding of the possibilities of indicators quantifying linkages between science and technology. Central are the concepts of innovation capability and science/technology interface, which are used to assemble a wide range of empirical studies and quantitative indicators to summarize their possibilities and limitations for producing comparative statistics. For the purpose of the study, we extracted the US patents by Korean assignees or inventors, scientific papers cited in the patents in order to analyze the characteristics of linkage of scientific knowledge flows. The review focuses on indicators dealing with flows of written or codified information, and indicators of inventiveness that capture the non-codifiable tacit knowledge dimension. General conclusions will be drawn with a view towards further developments in the foreseeable future, suggesting new avenues for the design and implementation of patent-based and inventor-based relationships between scientific research and technical development within the context of regional or national systems of innovation.

Patent information analysis has been carried out for technological capability analysis of competitors relating to next generation mobile communication. Various analysis methods, such as applicant analysis, technology classification analysis, indicator analysis and the like have been utilized as a method of analyzing patent information. As a first step for the technological capability analysis of competitors, applicants having high patent activity(PA) were selected, and as a second step therefor, technology classifications showing high technological independence (TI) were selected. Furthermore, portfolios for technology classifications showing high technological independence in the patents of main applicants having high patent activity by matching results the first and second steps together were prepared. Through such a process, portfolios for important technologies which have been concentrically researched by competitors could be analyzed. Accordingly, the present analysis results will help to carry out strategic R&D management, such as the establishment of company R&D plans and patent strategies.

Technology opportunity discovery (TOD) based on technological capability is a process which identifies new product and technology items that can be developed by utilizing or improving a firm's existing products or technologies. By taking into consideration the investment risk of R&D and its practicality, developing technological capability-based TOD methodology is considered to be important for both business and research. To this end, we propose a technological capability-based TOD method and its system using TOD knowledge base. The method can support four types of TOD cases, which are based on a firm's existing technologies and products, and TOD knowledge base is developed by using function information extracted from patent documents. In this paper, we introduce the overall framework of the method and provide application examples on the four TOD cases using the prototype system.

테크놀로지의 발달에 따라 Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge(TPACK)의 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 김성원과 이영준(2017)은 TPACK에서 테크놀로지의 도구를 프로그래밍까지 확장한 TPACK-Programming(TPACK-P) 교육 모델을 제안하였다. 또한, TPACK-P 교육 모델을 기반으로 TPACK-P 교육 프로그램을 개발하였으며, 예비 교사에게 적용하여 효과를 검증하였다. 그 결과, 다른 영역의 지식 발달에는 효과적이지만, Technological Content Knowledge(TCK)와 Technological Knowledge(TK)에는 영향을 주지 못하였다. 본 연구는 TPACK-P 교육 프로그램이 모든 영역의 지식 발달에 효과적이도록 만들기 위해서 예비 교사를 대상으로 TPACK-P 교육 프로그램을 적용하고, TPACK-P 교육 프로그램에 대한 인식을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 예비 교사는 프로그래밍 학습, 교과와 교육과정에 맞는 프로그램 설계, 프로그램 제작 과정에서 어려움이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 이러한 어려움을 극복하기 위해서 프로그래밍 학습의 강화와 프로그래밍 수업 설계 예시의 탐색이 필요하다고 말하였다. 이러한 연구 결과를 통하여 TCK와 TK의 향상을 위하여 프로그래밍을 효과적으로 가르치기 위한 교육 방안과 예비 교사의 교과 내용과 프로그래밍의 연결을 촉진하기 위한 내용이 TPACK-P 교육 모델에 보완되어야 한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Purpose: Trade in small and medium businesses must improve innovation performance before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The requirement for rapid innovation is being able to compete and survive post-pandemic. This research attempts to investigate the influence of organizational forgetting, knowledge management, and business agility in distributing innovation performance improvementsto SMEs in Tasikmalaya, Indonesia. Research design, data and methodology: In this research, a structural equation modeling approach with SmartPLS was applied. This research used 221 Tasikmalaya SMEs as samples. The findings of this study show that SMEs are still underrepresented in technological advancement. Results: Organizational forgetfulness does not have a significant impact on innovation performance, nor does it have an indirect impact through knowledge management. Business agility, on the other hand, has a significant indirect effect on innovation performance. Knowledge management does not have a significant and direct impact on innovation performance, but business agility has a significant impact. Conclusions: Efforts to enhance SMEs' trade must be willing to challenge the status quo or abandon knowledge that is no longer relevant to current developments to improve business agility and innovation. Technology-oriented SMEs can quickly become agile by implementing organizational forgetting. SME owners must be willing to adapt to technological advances to adopt organizational forgetfulness.
