본 연구는 우리나라와 세계 주요국의 이동통신서비스기업들의 자료를 이용하여 개별기업별 효율성을 측정하고 이로부터 해당 기업들의 국제 경쟁력 수준을 비교하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 함시창 (2006)의 방법론을 이용하여 각 기업의 트랜스로그비용함수를 추정하였으며 추정된 함수들로부터 규모의 경제성 시현 여부를 파악하고 X-비용효율성(X-cost efficiency)을 계산하였다. 연구결과 이동통신기업들은 규모의 경제성을 시현하고 있는 것으로 추정되었으며, 우리나라의 이동통신 기업들은 외국의 이동통신기업들에 비해 상당히 높은 수준의 비용 효율성을 보이고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this research is to examine X-efficiency of Korean local credit unions in 2001 by employing the stochastic frontier approach. This study uses the intermediation approach in order to define outputs and inputs of the credit unions. We define the outputs as the amounts of loans, and securities. The inputs are labor, deposit and physical capital. The price of labor is estimated by dividing the total wages by the number of employees. The price of deposit equals total interest divided by total deposit, and the price of physical capital is also computed to divide the total sales and administrative expenses by the physical capital. By the result of this study, the average efficiency score is 0.81. This fact indicates that credit unions can reduce their inputs by 19% for the given outputs. If results are arranged into quartiles based on the efficiency, inefficiency of top 25% credit unions is below 9%, and half of them is over 17%. In addition, e result shows that the efficiency is significantly influenced by region and size even if credit unions in Seoul and Daegu showed little difference in efficiency by size. Generally, medium size credit unions are more efficient than large size.

By using data envelopment analysis(DEA) this research measures the efficiency of Korea's seven middle-sized seaports and their Malmquist productivity from 1998 to 2007. Under the assumption of CRS(constant returns to scale) and VRS(variable returns to scale), seaports' ranking of efficiency are measured. Kunsan Port is confirmed as a middle-performed port in the various measurements. Important finding facts are as follows. 1)Kunsan Port has the efficiency level from 53% to 57% of efficient ports' level under the assumption of CRS and VRS. 2)In terms of average efficiency level, the gap among these 7 seports' efficiency levels has been widened during the period from 1998 to 2007. 3)Kunsan Port has shown the characteristics of DRS more frequently in terms of returns to scale. 4) Kunsan Port's average total factor productivity has been lower at the rate of 0.7% during the period from 1998 to 2007. 5)Kunsan Port has shown technical progress at the rate of 3.1% in this period. In future research the more and better data will be expected to improve the understanding of Korean seaports' efficiency characteristics.

A method is presented for evaluating the economic efficiency of a semi-active magneto-rheological (MR) damper system for cable-stayed bridges under earthquake loadings. An optimal MR damper capacity maximizing the cost-effectiveness is estimated for various seismic characteristics of ground motion. The economic efficiency of MR damper system is addressed by introducing the life-cycle cost concept. To evaluate the expected damage cost, the probability of failure is estimated. The cost-effectiveness index is defined as the ratio of the sums of the expected damage costs and each device cost between a bridge structure with the MR damper system and a bridge structure with elastic bearings. In the evaluation of cost-effectiveness, the scale of damage cost is adopted as parametric variables. The results of the evaluation show that the MR damper system can be a cost-effective design alternative. The optical capacity of MR damper is increased as the seismic hazard becomes severe.

1997년 IMF 경제위기 이후 우리나라의 금융산업은 급격한 변화를 겪고 있다. 지난 4년간 은행들을 비롯한 금융기관들이 대형화를 통한 경쟁력 강화를 위해 합병이 실시되었다. 은행합병의 궁극적인 목적은 합병에 의해 규모를 대형화하고 업무범위를 다양화하여 수익규모를 증대시키고 수익원을 다원화하는 한편, 경영자원의 투입과 활용을 효율화하고 시장지배력을 확충하여 경영성과를 제고함으로써 기업가치를 증진시키는데 있다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 1997년 이후에 본격적으로 이루어진 합병은행들을 대상으로 맘퀴스트 ${\ulcorner}$Malmquist${\lrcorner}$ 총요소생산성(Total Factor Productivity) 지수를 사용하여 그 성과를 측정해 보았다.

신약개발은 국민의 건강권과 직결되며 국가 차원의 제약산업 육성을 위해 매우 중요하다. 그동안 신약개발 분야와 관련하여 다양한 연구가 수행되었지만, 신약개발 분야의 국가연구개발사업에 대한 효율성 분석은 매우 부족한 실정이다. 특히 R&D 분야는 연구개발시차, 일출효과(spill-over effect) 등으로 인해 투입과 산출의 일정한 방향성과 등비율적인 증감을 가정하는 CCR 모형이 적합하지 않다. 또한 가변규모수익을 가정하는 BCC 모형도 여유분(slack)으로 인해 의사결정단위간의 명확한 우선순위 도출이 어려운 한계점이 있다. 최근에는 R&D 분야의 특수성을 고려해서 자료포락분석 모형 중 RAM(Range Adjusted Measure) 모형을 활용한 분석방법이 제시되고 있다. RAM 모형은 가변규모수익 가정 하에 투입지향이나 산출지향처럼 방향성에 대한 사전적인 가정 없이 비효율성을 최대한 제거하는 방향으로 효율성을 측정하므로 R&D 분야의 효율성 분석에 적합하다. 특히 RAM 모형은 매우 강건한 단조성을 인해 의사결정단위 간 명확한 순위 구분도 용이하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 자료포락분석 모형 중 RAM 모형과 토빗 회귀분석이 결합된 2단계 접근법을 활용해서 범부처전기신약개발사업을 중심으로 신약개발 분야의 국가연구개발사업들에 대한 효율성을 분석하고 주요 시사점들을 논의하였다.

실계통에서 운영되는 에너지관리시스템(EMS)의 계통해석 기능을 수행하기 위해서는 대규모 자료의 처리가 불가피하며 이에 따른 메모리의 사용에 대한 효율성, 즉 물리적인 자원의 제약성도 고려되어한 한다. 이러한 이유로 인하여 대규모 자료처리가 요구되는 실시간 시스템의 개발에서는 데이터에 대한 저장의 효율성과 접근의 용이성을 제공할 수 있는 자료설계 (Database Design)가 매우 중요하다 [1]. 이를 위하여 EMS에서는 고속의 연산속도에 대한 요구를 만족하며, 효율적이고 빠른 데이터 처리가 가능한 데이터저장기법이 적용된다. 본 논문에서는 상업용 EMS와 현재 개발중인 한국형EMS에서 적용되고 있는 자료저장기법인 연결형데이터저장기법 (Linked List Data Storage Scheme)에 대한 기능원리와 실제 적용에 대하여 소개하고자 한다.

This study examines empirically on relevance between bank performance and IC(Intellectual Capital) in the field of banking sector in Korea. IC is measured by VAIC(Value Added Intellectual Capital) and VAIC consists of HCE(Human Capital Efficiency Coefficient), CEE(Capital Employed Efficiency Coefficient) and SCE(Structural Capital Efficiency Coefficient). Main results are as follows. First, the effects of IC(Intellectual capital) on banks performance show significant (+) effect on the performance of banks. Second, Human capital and bank size shows the significant effect on the banks financial performance but SCE, CEE, and other variables didn't show it. As a concluding remark, IC(Intellectual capital) is very helpful for banks to go forward financially to get information and knowledges easily. This study help stakeholders and investors assess the value creating potential of banks and policy makers to implement policies for performance establishment of a Korean banking sector.

The 21st Century Maritime Silk Road (MSR) is an important part of Belt and Road Initiative(BRI). As an economic and trade corridor for dozens of countries in Asia, Europe and Africa, and the port as an important link node, the efficiency of port operation directly affects the implementation of BRI's strategy. On the basis of combining BRI and related evaluation methods of port efficiency, this paper uses DEA-BCC model to select port production berth number and production berth length as input index container throughput and cargo throughput as output index to analyze the port efficiency of 14 ports in China. The results show that: (1) The overall efficiency level of the ports along the MSR is relatively low. Most of the ports have not reached the DEA efficiency and there are different degrees of problems in scale investment and technological improvement. However, this situation is accompanied by the implementation of China's maritime cooperation strategy and becoming better year by year. (2) The low operating efficiency of ports along China's MSR is mainly due to the lack of coordination between scale efficiency and technical efficiency, which is caused by insufficient scale investment in the port itself, weak economic linkage between the hinterland and the port, (3) Whether a port has a strong comprehensive strength does not entirely depend on the cargo throughput or scale but also includes the port's operating efficiency.

This study aims to contribute to the improvement of the patent activity of small and medium-sized enterprises in the future by proposing five strategies for enhancing customized patent activity for small and medium-sized enterprises under the assumption that patent application affects firm performance. The subjects of this study were 25 years of active patent activity, using patent activity statistics for 5 years from 2010 and statistical data of business performance based on 2014. The research procedure was conducted in the order of DEA-BCC efficiency analysis, patent activity analysis, and patent portfolio analysis, and then propose a strategy to improve patent activity. As a result of the research, it was confirmed that 5 industries with high patent activity and IRS type have a substantial effect on improving corporate performance as an industry with high patent efficiency. On the other hand, there are 12 industries in the form of IRS/DRS, and 8 industries with low patent activity, DRS, CRS/IRS mixed type and IRS, and that the efficiency of the patent may vary depending on the characteristics of each industry.
