Fifth-generation (5G) wireless communication supports low latency of up to 1 ms or less, 20 Gbps of data rate, and more than 1 million connections. With these technical advantages, machines and equipment can be precisely adjusted, allowing 5G to be applied to industrial applications. To expand the industrial application of 5G wireless communications, major countries have introduced dedicated 5G, allowing specific companies to build and use 5G directly. Germany, UK, and Japan allocate 100 MHz, 416 MHz, and 1,200 MHz, respectively, of bandwidth dedicated to 5G. Companies with local licenses from the government are expected to accelerate the application of 5G at a low cost and low-frequency range. Therefore, Korea should introduce private 5G to foster 5G-related industrial ecosystems and successfully implement the fourth industrial revolution.

The development and operation of autonomous ships are spotlighted as a next-generation technology that will provide newbenefits for the maritime business during the fourth industrial revolution. To expand the adoption of autonomous ships, the much more interest of the nation and the industries will have to be changed to actual adoption in shipping companies. For this, it is judged that research to identify the factors impacting the adoption intention of autonomous ships should be preceded. However, most studies on autonomous ships have focused on developing the technology, revising the law, establishing policies, and managing human resources, with few studies on influencing factors in the adoption of autonomous ships. A model, to identify the factors that impact the intention to the adoption of autonomous ships, based on the theory of diffusion of innovation and the TOE framework was developed. The suggested model was verified through empirical analysis targeting the shipping companies and the marine industries in Korea. As the result of this study, it was found that top management support, financial slack, and competitive intensity significantly impacted the intention to adopt autonomous ships. Additionally, it was revealed that the overall awareness of autonomous ships among Korean shipping companies is poor.

With the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, software(SW) education has become a necessity, not a choice of those who live in the digital age. Recently, many countries around the world have been actively promoting software education based on Computational Thinking(CT) for K-12 students, so software education in schools has bigger meaning as basic literacy education of future digital generation rather than coding skills. However, the integration of software education as a formal curriculum in schools is still ongoing in even other countries. Korea is also pursuing software education, but it is in the beginning stage. Therefore, we need to study the cases of other countries that have already started software education at the national level. In this paper, we first investigate the software education cases of three countries, e.g., UK, France and China with a respect of background & educational objective, development stage, and curriculum and we suggest education policies that software education can settle in Korea schools to foster a creative talented people.
