스마트 워터 그리드는 클라우드 컴퓨팅 기술을 자산 및 자원관리에 도입하여 정보 공유와 업무 효율을 향상시키면서 등장하기 시작하였으며, 기후변화의 영향으로 인해 심화되고 있는 물부족 문제를 해결하기 위해 수자원관리의 지능화와 물이용의 효율성을 향상시키기 위해 필요한 기술이다. 본 연구에서는 스마트 워터 그리드를 효과적으로 국내 수자원관리에 도입하기 위한 방안을 미래 수자원 전망을 고려하여 제시하였다. 향후 사회-경제시스템 변화, 기후변화 영향, 수자원관리의 패러다임변화, 수요관리에 대한 이해관계자들의 참여 등을 고려할 경우 국내에서는 지능형 지역수자원관리, 지능형 지역수자원 확보, 물정보 서비스 제공, 지능형 농업수자원관리 등의 형태로 스마트 워터 그리드 기술이 도입될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Analysis of the economic impact on Korean bioindustry companies was approached after Korea access to the Nagoya Protocol on Access to Genetic Resources and the Fair and Equitable Sharing of Benefits Arising from their Utilization to the Convention on Biological Diversity (hereinafter 'the Protocol') enters into force. Cost analysis of the economic impact is based on the size of bioindustry market, dependency ratio on genetic resources abroad, ABS (Access and Benefit Sharing) ratio for royalty ratio. Korean bioindustry companies would have had to pay extra ABS cost around 1.3-6.0 billion won for using genetic resources abroad, if the Protocol had entered into force in 2009. And this cost is estimated to be around 13.6 - 63.9 billion won in 2015. All ABS costs account only about less than 0.01% of total Korean bioindustry volume of target years. These show us that joining the Protocol will not significantly impact the bioindustry market in Korea. If the Protocol enters into force, genetic resources users have to pay PIC (Prior Informed Consent) and MAT (Mutually Agreed Terms) cost before accessing the genetic resources outside of their country, regardless of the accession status of the country. This ABS costs and terms on provided genetic resources will be determined by compliance between genetic resources users and providers. As a genetic resources provider, Korean bioindustry companies will have advantage over technology transfer agreements, royalties, licensing agreements, and taxes on profits from patents including traditional knowledge. Also, Korean bioindustry companies are expected to get various socio-economic benefits such as patent litigation and regulatory proceedings as a genetic resources provider. Considering the advantages and disadvantages of the Protocol that Korean bioindustry companies will face together, the socio-economic impact of the Nagoya Protocol on Korean bioindustry companies is negligible regardless of the accession status of Korea to the Nagoya Protocol.

Emerging high broad band multimedia service with high quality has led to demand for challenge of optical access network and Passive Optical Network is one of the most important technologies for future optical access network. In this paper, we study the scheduling algorithm for WDM-PON in SUCCESS network architecture, a next generation hybrid WDM/TDM optical access network architecture. Due to economic implementation of this architecture, the shared resources efficiently need to be assigned and then we propose the efficient scheduling algorithm based on specific architecture and characters of SUCCESS. We evaluate and analyze the performance in terms of the average packet delay and throughput of the whole system.
