본 연구는 한국 경제의 변화과정을 염두에 두고 GRDP, 1인당 GRDP, 인구, 고용 등의 지표를 가지고 전국대비 수도권 지역의 누적적 성장과정을 분석하고, 이러한 수도권의 누적적 성장과정을 선도하는 산업부문을 탐색하기 위해 전국대비 지역의 노동생산성을 요소분해하여 1990년대 이후 수도권 경제의 구조적 변화과정을 살펴보았다. 첫째, 수도권 지역에는 산업연관 및 집적경제효과로 인하여 기업 및 생산요소 등에 대한 강력한 흡인력이 누적적으로 작용하고 있다. 그 결과, 수도권 지역이 우리나라의 경제를 선도하고 있지만 비수도권과의 경제력 격차가 특히 1997년 외환위기 이후의 경기 지역에서의 제조업의 가파른 누적적 성장으로 인해 더욱 더 심화되고 있다. 둘째, 수도권 지역의 노동생산성은 1990년대 중 후반부터 상승하고 있으며 해당지역 산업구조의 고도화가 완만하게나마 진행되고 있다. 마지막으로 제조업, 금융보험업, 통신업 등이 전체적으로 수도권 지역 전체의 생산성지수의 증가에 중요한 역할을 하였으며 사회, 개인, 공공 및 기타서비스업, 부동산사업서비스 등의 서비스업과 전기가스수도업, 통신업 등이 고용의 확대와 재배치에 중요한 기여를 하였다. 이는 수도권 지역의 핵심 산업이 IT 중심의 제조업과 금융보험업을 포함한 생산자서비스산업이라는 점과, 대도시의 경제적 특성과 외환위기 이후의 경제상황을 반영한 서비스업에서 고용증가가 이루어지고 있음을 보여준다.

A prerequisite for making R&D more productive is to able to measure its productivity. Most of the previous studies on this topic have attempted to measure R&D productivity at the firm or industry levels. In this study, however, R&D productivity is measured at the national level to provide R&D policy implications, particularly for Asian countries. Contrary to the previous studies where total factor productivity was adopted, this study employs the data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach to measure R&D productivity. DEA is a multi-factor productivity analysis model for measuring the relative efficiency of each Decision Making Unit (DMU). In addition to the basic DEA model that includes all inputs and outputs, five additional models are constructed by combining single input with all outputs and single output with all inputs in order to measure specialized R&D efficiency. In this study, the twenty-seven countries are classified into four clusters based on the output-specialized R&D efficiency: inventors, merchandisers, academicians, and duds. Then, the characteristics of the Asian countries with respect to R&D efficiency are identified. It is found that Singapore ranks high in total efficiency, and Japan in patent-oriented efficiency. Meanwhile, China, Korea, and Taiwan are found to be relatively inefficient in R&D. We expect that the findings from this study will be able to provide directions for R&D policy-making of the Asian countries.

Human resources development is considered a critical issue for improving productivity of workers in construction industry. The aim of this study is to identify and rank the key motivating factors that impact skilled workers productivity according to their relative importance. A total of 27 factors were identified through a literature review, which were categorized into 2 group financial and un-financial motivators. A questionnaire instrument was adopted in this study. The study revealed that the most significant group which affected skilled workers' productivity in construction projects was financial group with the recognition of the un-financial group importance. The results emphasized that the financial group has an edge over the un-financial group which reflect the priority of need for the respondents. The results indicated that the un-financial group represents a backbone in its importance after the financial group which reflects that un-financial factors can improve productivity. The findings showed that the provision of companies to safety conditions factor such as protective safety clothing and protective equipment was ranked very low by the respondents. This is due to the dominant culture of the workers as well as the lack of their awareness regarding their own safety and lack of companies' interest in safety and health for workers. Construction companies are advised to take the key motivating factors obtained from the results of this study into serious consideration in order to improve the satisfaction of their workers and improve their productivity.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of laying productivity and egg quality according to providing germinated and fermented soybean (GFS) as feed additive. Among the strain, we selected Monascus purpureus KCCM 12002 so that inoculated in soybean and fermented for 48 h at $20^{\circ}C$. A total of two-hundred forty 70-wk-old Hy-Line Brown layers were divided into four groups (4 treatment${\times}$6 replication${\times}$10 birds each) and fed diets containing 0 (as control) (T1), 0.5% (T2), 1.0% (T3) or 2.0% GFS (T4) for 6 wk. The laying productivity, egg quality and blood property in the egg yolk were experimented. There were no significant differences in the laying productivity, relative liver and spleen weights, egg yolk color and eggshell strength among another groups. The eggshell color, eggshell thickness and haugh unit significantly increased in the GFS-supplemented group (p<0.05) compared to control. However, no significant differences were observed in the blood property after supplementation. The amount of lactic acid bacteria present during storage increased by providing of GFS (p<0.05) compare to control group. Our study results suggested that GFS can be used as a favorable feed additive and feedstuff for the productivity of high quality eggs and promoted relative industry.

This study was conducted to investigate the relationships between yearly variations of elimatic elements and yearly variations of productivity in potato. In addition, correlation coefficients among yield and yield components were estimated. The data of yield and yield components were investigated for 9 years from 1987 to 1995. The meteorological data what gathered at the Goheung Weather Station for the same period of crop growing season were used to find out the relationships between climatic elements and crop productivity. Yearly variation of the daily minimum temperature in March and April were large with coefficients of variation (C.V.) of 126.0%, 368%, respectively, but the variation of the daily mean and maximum temperature in May and June were relative small. Stem length and number of stem show more C.V. of 9.3%, 14.3%, respectively, but the variation of the yield was relative small with 3.7%. Correlation coefficients between the amount of precipitation in April and yield, yield and daily mean temperature in June were negatively significant at the level of 5, 1 %, respectively. Correlation coefficients between the growth habits and yield are positively significant at the level of 5, 1 %, respectively. Simple linear regression equations by the least square method are estimated for stem length (Yl) and the precipitation in April(X) as Y,=82.47-0.11x (R2=0.3959), and for yield(Y2) and the precipitation in April(X) as Y,=2003.61-0.94X (R2=0.5418).

현재 선박의 대형화 및 선박의 운항시간 단축 요구 등의 환경변화에 따라 컨테이너터미널의 생산성 향상이 요구되고 있다. 컨테이너터미널의 생산성은 어떠한 생산성 평가 모델을 이용하여 생산성을 측정하는지와 투입요소인 장치장, 장비, 종업원, 시설 등의 개별적인 투입요소에 따라 서로 다른 측정 결과가 나온다. 그러나 컨테이너터미널의 생산성을 측정하는데 단순히 부분적인 생산성 평가 모델이나 기존의 일반적인 투입 요소만으로 생산성의 정도를 평가하는 것은 문제점을 가지고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 컨테이너터미널의 생산성을 측정하기 위해, 기존의 컨테이너터미널 생산성 평가 모델에 관한 분석 및 투입과 산출의 명확한 인과관계를 밝히기 어려운 의사결정단위들의 상대적 효율성을 평가하기 위해 개발된 자료포락분석(DEA) 기법을 활용하여 컨테이너터미널의 생산성을 평가하고자 한다. 더불어 투입요소의 변화에 따라 생산성의 측정 결과가 어떻게 변화하는지 파악하여 보다 정확한 생산성 평가 모델을 제시하고자 한다.
