A central theme in recent IT (information technology) industry is a mobile ecosystem. While a concept of business ecosystem, which is an economic community of firms and individuals producing and consuming goods and services, has been around for about 20 years now, the recent spotlight is mainly caused by the enormous success of iPhone. Many hand-set makers or platform developers want to mimic Apple's iPhone ecosystem from which both application developers and hand-set users can benefit. In this study, a representation model of the business ecosystem is proposed for supporting systematic design and analysis of ecosystems. Whereas previous studies also proposed some representation models, they emphasized only on the value chain between participating players. The proposed model, which is named relation-based ecosystem model, represents an ecosystem with the requirement relationships between product and service components and the roles of players, as well as their value chain. Such comprehensive representation explicitly reveals the strategic difference between ecosystems. This advantage was illustrated by comparing a Korean traditional mobile ecosystem and an emerging smart-phone ecosystem represented by the proposed model.

This study is focused on the incustrial symbiosis based on industrial ecosystem theory. At first, the concept of industrial ecosystem was introduced. Industrial symbiosis is a good tool in order to make a harmony between industry and natural ecosystem. The good example of industrial symbiosis is the case of Kalundborg in Denmark, where 11 networks are working in four enterprises and one community nearby. It was proved that savings of natural resources and economic benefit are achieved by use of industrial symbiosis. Moreover, the control of pollutant emission was also done by use of advanced technology and investments. Based on this case. It was shown that industrial symbiosis through eco-industrial complex in Korea was confronted with many difficulties. First of all., loose emmision criteria, recycling system on wastes, and the absence of will for industrial symbiosis should be solved in Korea.

To restore the forest ecosystem severely damaged by air pollution around industrial complexes, plants tolerant to the polluted environment were selected by transplant and pot culture experiments. A restoration plan by arranging those tolerant species was prepared based on the ecological diagnostic results on an area that requires restoration. Transplant experiment in Ulsan and Yeocheon areas, the representative industrial complexes in Korea, selected eight tolerant species of Quercus aliena, Q. acutissima, Q. dentata, Q. mongolica, Q. serrata, Ligustrum japonicum, Styrax japonica, and Poncirus trifoliata. Cultivation in the polluted soil transported from the Ulsan and Yeocheon industrial complexes chose five tolerant plants of Q. aliena, Q. acutissima, Q. serrata, Styrax japonica, and Alnus firma. A plan to restore the forest ecosystem of Mt. Dotjil, which experienced the severest ecosystem degradation in the Ulsan industrial complex, was prepared by applying those tolerant species along with treatment for soil amelioration. Arrangement of the tolerant species was designed by considering their ecological characteristics including distribution range on topography and shade tolerance. Soil amelioration was focused on the improvement of fertility and moisture conditions.

This research aims to identify promising IT items from the perspectives of Korean SMEs and further to development a policy for SMEs in the IT industry. For this purpose, we adopted a bottom-up approach by discovering IT items on high demand by SMEs as their now growth engines and thus used a survey method. We also analyzed the ecosystem characteristics for the items to help policy-makers establish customized strategy to support their growth. We believe that this research is timely when the concept of ecosystem has emerged and the role of SMEs is emphasized in the IT industry. And the research results are expected to produce valuable information to make a policy for promoting IT items for SMEs and ultimately leading to balanced growth of large firms and SMEs.

환경 복잡성의 증대와 변화의 가속화로 인하여 기업 미래에 대한 불확실성이 높아짐에 따라 정보기술(IT)에 기반을 둔 디지털화의 확산이 단위 기업의 경계를 넘어 기업군 즉, 기업생태계(Business Ecosystem) 또는 산업생태계(Industrial Ecosystem)에 미치는 영향에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 경영 현장에서는 기업 및 산업의 디지털화가 기업 및 산업 생태계의 건강성과 지속성을 높이는 도구로 기대와 주목을 받고 있다. 또한 최근 연구들은 정보기술이 기업군 및 산업 생태계 내에서 정보나 자원의 공유를 용이하게 함으로써 기업 간의 상호교류를 촉진시키는 역할을 한다는 관점에서 정보기술과 기업생태계의 건강성 간의 관계에 관심을 집중하고 있다. 나아가 거시적 관점에서 IT는 기업 간의 상호작용의 수준을 넘어 산업 자체의 구도와 판도에 변화를 초래하고 있는 것으로 인식되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 기업군 및 산업생태계 차원의 변화 현상은 매우 광범위하고 복잡하게 나타나 산업내 다양한 개체들의 상호작용과 의존성을 파악하기에 적합한 분석 방법론이 충분히 개발되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 디지털 변환(Digital Transformation)에 의해 초래되는 기업생태계의 전반적 구조 변화와 진화과정을 분석하기 위한 생태계 매핑(Ecosystem Mapping) 방법론을 단계적으로 개발하고 이를 실제 산업의 분석에 적용함으로써 방법론의 적용 가능성과 디지털 변환이 산업 생태계의 구조변화에 미치는 영향에 대한 분석을 동시에 시도하였다. 특히 본 연구에서는 국내 영화산업을 디지털 변화에 의한 영향을 분석하는 대상으로 선정하였다. 활동사진기의 발명으로 출발한 영화산업은 유성영화, 컬러영화의 등장이라는 산업 혁신의 역사에서 보는 바와 같이 기술의 진보가 산업 생태계의 형성과 변화에 극적인 영향을 미치는 산업으로서 디지털 기술의 도입에 따라 산업 생태계의 구조가 변화하는 현상을 분석하기에 매우 적합한 산업으로 평가되었기 때문이다.

The importance of ecosystem service such as green spaces has risen due to restrictions on outdoor activities amid the climate crisis and COVID-19. While gardens significantly impact economic development, quality of life, and social well-being, comprehensive studies on their multidimensional values are lacking. This research categorizes garden values into social, cultural, environmental, and health dimensions and proposes an integrated assessment framework that introduces detailed elements and evaluation methods. An empirical assessment of carbon storage index in two Korean gardens, Semiwon and Juknokwon, reveals Semiwon's higher carbon storage per unit area. The proposed framework, emphasizing a quantitative approach, enables cross-national and regional comparisons, contributing to a broader understanding and evaluation of garden values beyond specific facilities.
