기업의 사회공헌에 대한 사회 구성원들의 요구가 있다. 기업의 규모가 크면 클수록 사회 공공의 이익을 위한 더 많은 공익적 활동이 있게 마련이고, 실제로 적지 않은 기업이 봉사 활동이나 기부 등을 통해 사회공헌을 실천하고 있다. 당위성이 우선 시 되는 정보보호도 마찬가지. 지난 몇 년간 대형 웹 서비스 기업을 중심으로 정보보호에 대한 사회적 책임을 강조하는 목소리가 커지고 있다. 온라인 게임 서비스를 제공하는 넥슨도 이런 사회적 책임을 요구받는 기업 중 하나다.

In Korea, the game software and service industry is the core cultural industry from it's significant academic and policy. However, recent growth is slowing down because of increasing competition in the industry. In other words, most of the companies growth have reached limit caused by focusing only on short-term revenue-generating management, Therefore, the game software and service companies are needed to emphasize strategic planning of R&D and product development based on the long-term perspective. The purpose of this analysis is to measure the efficiency of management by data envelopment analysis(DEA), using data from 20 companies in the game software and service industry. Input variances are number of labor, total asset, and total investment and output variances are total sale and enterprise value. The results are followings: First, There was a different efficiency between the companies in the game software and service industry. The eight companies was inefficiency. Second, six inefficiency companies were excessive number of the employees and investment assets. third, four companies were CRS, five companies were IRS and eleven companies were DRS. From the result, five companies have to increase the scale of input variance and eleven companies also have to improve efficiency of input variance.

게임은 독자적인 하나의 가상 세계를 구성하며, 이에 따라 게임을 서비스하는 기업은 별도의 사법체계에 가까운 정보보호 및 보안 체계 및 인력을 유지하는 경우도 많다. 여기에서는 이러한 기업이 가지고 있는 권한을 활용하여 정보보호를 강화하는 방법에 대해 경제이론에 기반하여 사례를 간략하게 분석하였다. 가상 세계에서의 불법적 활동은 개인의 효용극대화라는 경제이론으로도 설명이 가능하며, 이를 볼 때 불법적 활동의 감소는 기대되는 수익의 감소 및 처벌 규모 및 발각확률 상승으로 인한 기대되는 비용의 증가를 통해 정책적으로 대처가 가능하다. 이를 위해 다양한 기술적/보안조직 등에 대한 연구 및 방법론들이 개발되어 있지만, 이를 통하지 않더라도 게임 내 규칙을 변경하거나, 정책적 방향을 통해서도 유사한 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 여기에서는 간략하게 (1) 불법적 이득을 감소시키는 정책 (2) 불법적 활동의 발각확률을 올리는 정책 (3) 불법적 활동에 대한 처벌에 대한 정책이라는 세 가지 측면에서 검토하였으며, 그동안 게임사에서 시도되었고 효과적이었다고 인지되는 여러 사례를 소개하고자 하였다.

The process of obtaining third-party financing contacts was analyzed via a two-stage game model: a "signaling game" for the first stage,and a "principal-agent model" for the second stage. The two-stage game was solved by a process of backward induction. In the second stage game, the optimal effort level of the energy saving company (ESCO), the optimal compensation scheme of the energy user, and the optimal payoffs for both parties were derived for each subgame. The optimal solutions forthe different subgames were then compared with each other. Our main finding was that if there is some restriction on ESCO's revenue (e.g. a progressive sales tax) that causes ESCO's revenue toincrease at a decreasing rate, then the optimal sharing ratio is uniquely determined at a level of strictly less than one under a linear compensation scheme, i.e. a unique balance exists. Subgames have a unique equilibrium arrived at separately for each situation,. Within this equilibrium, energy users accept energy audit proposals from H-type ESCOs with high levels of technology, but reject proposals from L-type ESCOs with low levels of technology. While L-type ESCOs cannot attain profits in the third-party financing market, H-type ESCOS can pocket the price differential between L-type and H-type audit fees. Accordingly, revenues in an H-type ESCO equilibrium increase not only in line with the technology of the ESCO inquestion, but also faster than in an L-type equilibrium due to more advanced technology. At the same time, energy users receive some positive payoff by allowing ESCOs to perform third-party financing tasks within their existing energy system without incurring any extra costs.

The core price policy of on-line game marketing are FPP(Fixed Pre Paid model and PPU(Pay Per Use) model. These two models have been a on-line game company's billing system and a fundamental of MMORPG in Korea. However, they took root billing system only for first movers recently. In now, the market share of several first movers is exceeding 80%, late movers witch have same billing system cannot take part in pair competition. Even though in MMORPG, many games of late movers were favorably noticed by a lot of gamers during Evaluation. Test, a lot of companies are bankrupt before make business. Late Movers declare free game first thing, they maintain their existence and win over customers in on-line game market. And next, they guarantee item selling, give multiple experience value and game money, at last, induce their customers to pay service. As it makes trouble between pay user and free user, and it linked up with the collapse of game contents balance that designed for FPP billing system, And then meet unexpected result which reduction of game life cycle. In this Paper, we classified several contents services based on game contents, and suggested contents premium services which adopted low cost strategy lead to micro payment. we hope it will apply to late movers' new billing system in MMORPG.

This paper analyzes system builders and their human networks of the Korean online game industry. By the early 2000s, Korea became one of the major online gaming countries in the world. In this period, important factors included the existence of system builders and their solid human networks. The few innovators who assisted the breakthrough of the development of the online gaming industry formed a human network in universities and IT companies. They shared innovations in information and collectively learned the conventions of the industry. In their achievement, the human networks which had already fully formed in the late 1990s became more noticeable. This paper, with its historical approach, will complement the limits shown by existing researches that, in their effort to find the causes for the success of the Korean online game industry, focus rather narrowly on the conditions of the period during which online games were becoming popular.
