  • Food security and its sovereignty have become among the most important key issues due to changes in the international situation. Regarding these issues, many countries now give attention to smart agriculture, which would increase production efficiency through a data-based system. The Korean government also has attempted to promote smart agriculture by 1) implementing the agri-food ICT (information and communications technology) policy, and 2) increasing the R&D budget by more than double in recent years. However, its endeavors only centered on large-scale farms which a number of domestic farmers rarely utilized in their farming. To promote smart agriculture more effectively, we diagnosed the government R&D trends of smart agriculture based on NTIS (National Science and Technology Information Service) data. We identified the research trends for each R&D period by analyzing three pieces of information: the regional information, research actor, and topic. Based on these findings, we could suggest systematic R&D directions and implications.

  • The Office of Science and Technology Innovation (OSTI) was created by a different method of organizational change from that of precedent administrative reforms. According to results of the new method, the OSTI case can be widely applied to other ministries as an alternative model for governmental reform. The theory part introduced two approaches of organizational reform, namely structural approach which focuses on the level of hierarchial authority and process approach which emphasizes the flow of information/expertise in organizational operation. It also discussed various ways of understanding for S&T policy coordination. After this, the paper reviewed details of the OSTI reform with special reference to implications for the mode of S&T policy coordination. It concludes that the OSTI may offer an opportunity to strengthen the coordination mechanism of the process approach.

  • Technology diffusion policy can be defined as the role of government in linking knowledge production with usage. It has an importance due to the fact that linking knowledge between the producing agent and using agent does not automatically occur. If knowledge produced by an R&D agent is not used by somebody else, the knowledge may deteriorate to a social loss since knowledge production consumes a considerable degree of social resources. Explicit technology diffusion policies are not found in Korea. There we, however, a number of implicit policies to promote technology diffusion, mainly by promoting cooperation among universities, industries and research institutes. Government R&D programs have provided incentives for cooperative research projects, and many government sponsored institutes have been assigned the role of technology assistance for small and medium sized firms. Nevertheless, diffusion policies remain weak in comparison to other innovation and technology policies. This is reflected in the relatively small scale of government support for technology diffusion programs. In addition, there is no systematic approach between the different ministries for enhancing diffusion across technologies, institutions, sectors and regions. A comprehensive evaluation of government diffusion programs, which is necessary for improving policy and program design, is lacking. Enhancing the diffusion of technology in Korea will require the strengthening of policies at different levels, including; 1) increasing the orientation of science and technology policies towards diffusion; 2) increasing the scale of existing diffusion programs; 3) developing new diffusion programs, in particular sector-specific or manpower training programs; 4) developing policies to encourage a culture of cooperation that can facilitate technology diffusion; and 5) carrying out substantial policy research to develop diffusion policies.

  • This study secured comparable sales transaction information of technology transfer corresponding to an active market conditions and proposes a method to assess the similarity of technologies with regard to comparability of technology transfer based on these cases information. In order to analyze the association and similarity between target technology and sales transactions, it proposes the significant factors affecting royalty decision and the cosine coefficient method by industry categories. It also proposes the method to adjust royalty, which means that this method unlike the conventional method provides clear standards to valuators in order to revise royalty. Therefore, it offers a solution to the difficulties of applying the market approach for a lot of valuators that have wanted to apply it and objective method to enhance the reliability of the value of intangible asset evaluated by the market approach.

  • The policy change in the Data 3 Act is one of the issues that should be noted at a time when non-face-to-face business strategies become important after COVID-19. The Data 3 Act was implemented in South Korea on August 5, 2020, calling 'Big Data 3 Act' and 'Data Economy 3 Act,' and so personal information that was not able to identify a particular individual could be utilized without the consent of the individual. With the implementation of the Data 3 Act, it is possible to establish a fair economic ecosystem by ensuring fair access to data and various uses. In this paper, the law on the protection of personal information, which is the core of the Data 3 Act, was compared around Korea, the European Union and the United States, and the implications were derived through network analysis of keywords.

  • Estimating the economic life of a technology is the first important prerequisite step in the feasibility analysis of technology-based business. Many empirical studies have concentrated on patents data to estimate the time period for a technology. However, it is recommended to estimate it along with qualitative considerations of future technological and market conditions. In this regard, little is known about how approaches are applied. This paper aims to establish a structural framework of estimating the lifetime of a technology by integrating the outputs of an analysis of the determinants in each transition of a product life cycle. We describe an illustrative case about a light emitting diode (LED) backlight unit (BLU) technology for the liquid crystal display (LCD) TV. The framework allows valuators and experts to estimate a technology lifetime by using multidimensional factors.

  • In this knowledge based society, the debate on ICT has permanently shifted from 'why' ICT for development, to 'how' comprehensive and holistic ICT policies can unleash human potential and enhance people's capabilities to improve their lives. Recognizing this untapped potential and development strategies incorporating ICT are being increasingly promoted and launched across the developing countries. While the potential advantages of ICT for development are enormous in developed countries, national policies of developing countries are yet to adequately reflect truly comprehensive and integrated strategies for harnessing and exploiting this potential. This paper presents an analysis of National ICT policy of Bangladesh. Through the examination of ICT policy, in particular in the field of agriculture and rural development and analysis of applied policies and strategies implemented in these area, this paper identifies challenges and opportunities which provides lessons for policy-makers and practitioners involved in the field. This analysis reveals that the policy is inadequate to impact positively on the agriculture and rural development of Bangladesh. The policy places little emphasis on the integration and infusion of ICT in the country's agriculture and rural development. Policy implications and suggestions are offered to ensure maximum use of ICT potentials in the country's agriculture and rural development.

  • 최근 전 세계적으로 디지털 콘텐츠에 대한 아카이빙 사례가 증가하고 있다. 디지털 콘텐츠는 휘발성, 진본성 문제, 보존의 취약성, 재생도구의 노화 등과 같은 특성으로 인하여 장기보존을 위한 특별한 보존관리가 요구된다. 성공적인 디지털 아카이빙은 체계적으로 수립된 명문화된 정책에 기초하여 관련 기관들의 협력을 통한 단계적인 실행에서 가능해질 것이다. 본 연구는 과학기술정보 유통의 대표기관인 KISTI의 디지털 콘텐츠 아카이빙 정책 수립을 위한 기초적인 연구이다. 해외의 디지털 아카이빙정책 사례들을 조사 분석하여 디지털 아카이빙 정책의 프레임워크를 파악하고, 전문가 그룹 인터뷰를 통해 아카이빙 정책에 포함되는 거시적인 항목들에 대한 방안을 제시하였다.

  • 사회에서 논의되는 과학기술혁신정책 이슈와 학술영역에서의 이론적 논의는 상호작용한다. 둘 사이의 상호작용을 이해하는 것은 보다 나은 정책을 제안하고 학술연구의 사회적 가치를 높이고자 하는 노력에 중요한 시사점을 제공해 줄 수 있다. 이런 배경아래 본 논문은 한국에서의 과학기술혁신정책 이슈와 학술연구 사이의 상호작용을 탐색하고자 주요 일간지와 학술지에 대한 질적내용분석을 수행했다. 연구를 통해 우리는 세 가지를 확인할 수 있었다. 첫째, 사회에서 단기간에 등장한 과학기술혁신정책 이슈를 대상으로 하는 연구들이 학술영역에서 뒤이어 등장했다. 둘째, 오랜 시간에 걸쳐 한국사회와 기술 하부구조에서 진행되어온 혁신시스템의 변화를 관찰하여 개념화 시킨 학술연구들이 과학기술혁신정책 이슈형성에 직간접적으로 반영됐다. 셋째, 과학기술의 사회적 역할과 전통 경제학 영역에서 다루어진 주제에 대해 현장에서의 과학기술혁신정책 연구수요가 존재하지만 아직 많은 연구가 이루어지지는 못하고 있다. 세 가지 연구결과는 정책입안자들이 한국에 필요한 정책과제를 발굴하고 연구자들이 새로운 연구대상을 확인하는 과정에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.
