Korean government has granted fixed indirect cost rates to several exceptional R&D programs which is lower than the predetermined rate by the government. It has been needed to evaluate the validity of exceptional R&D programs and determine the optimal indirect costs rate of the programs. This study analyzes the cost structure and explores drivers of indirect costs of exceptional R&D programs and evaluates the validity of current indirect costs rates. Finally, we propose the formulas for indirect costs rates of exceptional R&D programs. We analyze the cost structure of the exceptional R&D programs. Equipments and material costs are 50% in infra building program. Scholarship to students is 43% in HRD program. Equipments and material costs are 50% and R&D activity costs are 31% in international R&D program. Main cost components of evaluation program are salary(37%), R&D execution costs(21%) and R&D activity costs(19%). We propose three formulas of indirect costs for exceptional programs. 1) The cost items with exceptionally large amount are excluded in the base of formula for indirect costs. 2) Fixed indirect cost rate is applied for specific R&D programs. 3) Upper bound is set for the cost items with exceptionally large amount in the calculation of indirect costs rate. Our proposal is expected to contribute to the improvement of the efficiency of national R&D programs.

To explore the answer on how the evaluators' network affects efficiency of National R&D Program, this paper analyzes the network of evaluators who attended the peer-review committee for National Nuclear R&D Program from 2007 to 2008. The result derived from network analysis was applied to measure the efficiency of programs by Data Envelopment Analysis. The result shows that the weaker network produces higher efficiency as much as the research result itself. Along with the expertise of evaluators themselves, this paper implies that network should be considered as a main item for evaluation.

As our society leads into information age, it becomes necessary to build a new national science & technology information system responded to new social technological change. Therefore, It is needed a picture of the new economic structure to introduce a new system, but our part of science & technology information service have not taken into account of it. This paper gives the national R&D electronic information service system of science & technology in this new change a guide to the coming structure, thus allowing it to better define and position its offerings in the context of one another. The premise of this paper is that new role of it will be based on the structure of new national science & technology information system In this research results, information society of the future is going to the direction of maximizing the economies of extent and connection. The intent of Science & Technology Integrated Information System is hold the information in common, to possess accumulation benefit of the information. In this system, science & technology information fulfill its function of a R&D part in national management system, therefore cooperation among enterprise, school and research institution is easily made through the process into more enhancing the total competition of national science & technology.

In the knowledge society, the importance of sharing knowledge, technology, and information has been increasing. Due to the different characteristics of information itself, information marketing is a newly emerging perspective. This study aims to identify the factors which effect information customer value and satisfaction of the national R&D information service. The results show that information quality and service quality have a significant influence on customer value. In addition, the information quality, service quality and the information customer value have a significant positive effect on customer satisfaction. However, customer value of information acts as an intermediary between information quality and customer satisfaction. The indirect effects of information quality on the satisfaction are higher than the direct effect. On the other hand, the difference between the direct and indirect effect of service quality was not significant. After an analysis of research result, we discussed implications and limits of the study as well as future result direction.

In this paper, numerical values are derived using topic modeling among data-based evaluation methodologies discussed by various research institutes. In addition, we will focus on the ICT field to see if there is a difference in policy perception between the national R&D project and standing committee. First, we create model for classifying ICT documents by learning R&D project data using HAN model. And we perform LDA topic modeling analysis on ICT documents classified by applying the model, compare the distribution with the topics derived from the R&D project data and proceedings of standing committees. Specifically, a total of 26 topics were derived. Also, R&D project data had professionally topics, and the standing committee-discuss relatively social and popular issues. As the difference in perception can be numerically confirmed, it can be used as a basic study on indicators that can be used for future policy or project evaluation.

Nowadays, the R&D policy has gradually emphasized the creation of economic values added through technology transfer of R&D performance. Technology transfer plays an important role in making a profit on commercialization of technology, but the performance of technology transfer is a great difference between countries. Therefore, this study analyzes the effects of the science and technology environment on technology transfer from a national point of view. In this study, the science and technology environment largely consists of openness, ease of firms, protection of intellectual property, emphasis of science in schools. We select OECD 34 countries as the subject of this study and collect the data from IMD between 2002 and 2011. The results show that all hypotheses are supported. Openness and ease of firms are related to technology transfer as they help to improve the understanding and willingness about technology transfer nationally. Protection of intellectual property also influences the spread of R&D performance positively, and the environment that is emphasized science in school actively promotes both creation and technology transfer of R&D performance. Although prior studies have focused on technical capabilities to improve the performance of technology transfer, we consider the influence of the science and technology environment from an institutional perspective. This study will do much for formulate the R&D policy.

This study is to seek measures for streamlining the evaluation system by analyzing the examples of advanced countries. This study was conducted, based on the relevant government policy documents and previous research papers, in the manner of comparing and analyzing the issues and cases regarding the government evaluation system of public-funded R&D programs in selected countries. In Korea, a national R&D performance evaluation system was introduced by law in 2006. In United States, Obama government has enhanced government performance management by signed into law the GPRA Modernezation Act of 2010. The Japanese Government issued a newly revised Guideline on National R&D Evaluation in late 2012. European Union has also been constantly updating its evaluation system for Framework Programmes(FPs) begun since 1984. This study gets some insights from the recent development of R&D evaluation in the other countries. It is important for the government R&D evaluation system to be in line with national S&T policy and agency's mission. In micro views, specific evaluation approaches and methods by types of various R&D programs should be more illustratively developed. Additionally it is suggested to monitor recent trends and techniques on R&D evaluation by participating in activities to communicate and share their knowledge and experiences in international evaluation research networks.

The various technologies of the science and technology field were systematized to manage information, personnel and R&D activities related to S&T effectively. The resulting “National Standard Science and Technology Classification” which were composed of 19 areas, 160 divisions and 1,023 categories could contribute to establish rational S&T policy. “National Standard Science and Technology Classification” is synthetic in national level because they include all areas of S&T activities. 5 criteria, which were inclusiveness, exclusiveness, likeness, scale and universality, were used to exert every effort in including the opinion of all experts and to consider harmony between S&T areas. In addition, “National Standard Science and Technology Classification” was prepared to be interchangeable with various classification which were used in other R&D management institutes under the different ministries.
