The rates of technological innovation and environmental change as well as market competition have recently accelerated, which makes it difficult for firms to satisfy the needs of their customers through existing product innovation or limited services. Some firms have attempted to find the solutions to this problem by conducting business model (BM) innovation. This study reviews the theoretical discussion to BM innovation and suggests propositions concerning the necessity of BM innovation and conditions of successful BM innovation. Furthermore, the study examines the applicability of the propositions and draws strategic implications by analysing the cases of two world-wide leading firms, AVL and ETAS, in the automobile R&D service sector. In particular, the study investigates how the firms with technological competence in the R&D service sector obtain market performance through BM innovation. Results of this study show that the case firms recognize the necessity of BM innovation based on product (or technology)-service fusion to effectively propose customer value and create corporate profit. Also, the firms exploit firm-specific complementary assets for successful BM innovation. This paper contributes to the literature of innovation management by promoting academic discussion concerning BM innovation in Korea and suggesting strategic implications for further development of R&D service sector and related firms in Korea.

This study is a basic study to evaluate the ecological environment of Changwon City. The study site was 6 ecotourism districts in Changwon-si, and the ecotourism index was evaluated through direct visits and interviews with the person in charge through preliminary research and various literature data from June to July 2021. There are six ecotourism indicators: climate crisis, air quality improvement, water conservation, natural coexistence, citizen participation, and tourism resource management. When looking at the scores for the six ecotourism areas in Changwon, it received the highest score in the areas of natural coexistence and air quality improvement. However, the ecoregion received the lowest score in the water resource conservation category, indicating that the water resource conservation as a whole was weak. Next, tourism resource management, climate crisis, and citizen participation are at the same level in all regions. As a result of the evaluation through the low-carbon ecotourism index, the Changwon City low-carbon ecotourism certification system should first be operated as a measure to revitalize the ecotourism region. It is necessary to prepare a low-carbon ecotourism level for Changwon City. Second, it is very important to guide and promote ecotourism areas to revitalize ecotourism areas. Lastly, to operate a sustainable eco-environment area, it is necessary to operate using local governance above all else.

Recently, BIM has become mandatory in the construction field, research on various use cases is increasing. In particular, when virtual reality technology, one of the core technologies of the 4th industrial revolution, and BIM are combined, it can be used in various fields such as preliminary design review and construction simulation. Until now, however, virtual reality grafting technology is only used as a simple prototype or as a model house. Also, it is difficult to activate virtual construction because it is expensive to produce high-quality virtual reality contents. Therefore, in this paper, in order to increase the utilization and quality of the virtual construction field, a study was conducted to shorten the material mapping time, which takes a lot of time when producing virtual reality contents using BIM. To this end, object properties were assigned to enable material mapping in the BIM model, and materials most used in the construction field were configured, and automated material function development and final tests were conducted that automatically map properties and materials. For the test, 10 models were used and the test was repeated three times, and the productivity improvement of about 50.16% was finally achieved. In the future, we plan to conduct research on physical data weight reduction based on the advanced material mapping automation function and the large-capacity BIM model.

Recently, various industrial sectors have introduced cloud service actively in their business because cloud computing technology enables storage·management and analysis·utilization of data easily in anytime, anywhere. Especially in financial sector, the business provocatively adopted the service and creates various innovative cases; furthermore, already in abroad, the sector has been accelerating digitization of analysis in cases of credit risk, financial fraud data, stock trading etc. On the contrary, in the domestic financial industry, not only the cloud service introduction and innovation cases are underperformed, but most of them are focused on the back-office service. Most Korean financial corporations are burdened with the adoption of cloud service due to various conservative regulatory requirements, such as regulations on data storage and management, regulations on privacy, and other tasks such as developing decision models and establishing responsibility standard for security incidents and service failures. In this study, it would be aimed to contribute to promote the introduction of the cloud in the domestic financial sector by drawing up preemptive challenges and inspecting priorities.

In the twenty first century of rapid cultural change performing art requires new mode of expression based on imaginative power and creativity as well as establishing its own identity. The modern technological environment support this with advanced technology and bring about the expansion of reason from new experience. The introduction of digital media on artistic expression in particular, expands the physical ability of human body which is the main subject of performing art. A virtual body from digital technology is freed from physical boundaries and goes over space and time. It also suggests the possibility of new mode of communication with audience. This study aims at examining the subject of performing art and its digitalized movement focusing on EveR, the world's first professional robot actor. The robot actor which came on stage according to the new expression medium, a digital body, stands in need not only of technological value but also of cultural and artistic application for expression in art. In this endeavor to meet the demand, this study examines the development process and function of 'EveR' the robot actor. Also it searches into the performance of Ever which replaced human being as well as the historical significance of the title:the world's first. To be more specific, there is a example research on two performances:a pansori play "EveR is simply stunning(2009)" and children's play "The Robot Princess and Seven Dwarfs(2009)." Through this example research, it is enabled to anticipate the influence of robot actors on performing arts and to search for the better way of them to evolve. Furthermore, it aims at finding ways to create high value through promoting robot actors to be familiar to the public as well as supporting them to become active cultural contents. The performance with robotic technology is one of the artistic experiment that may cause the change of the future of performing art by actualizing technological imagination together with human body and machinery. As a consequence, it is expected that the meeting of performing art and robotic technology gives positive influence on activating performing art as one of the integrated cultural phenomenon which satisfies the taste of modern era. Moreover, this study may also be the beginning of the expansion of performing art to stretch to diverse field.

위치기반서비스(Location Based Service)는 갈수록 고도화 되어 가고 있다. 특히 최근의 대형 포털을 중심으로 지오웹 서비스가 활성화 되어 있고 이를 스마트폰과 같은 개인용 이용기기를 통해 연속적으로 제공하려는 경향이 뚜렷하다. 이와 같은 시점에서 정부와 민간에서 구축 중이거나 보유 중인 전국적 규모의 데이터 간 상호 연동과 융합을 도모하려는 시도 또한 불가결하다. 이는 고도화된 LBS를 위하여 반드시 필요한 과정이기 때문이다. 이에 따라 몇 가지 주요한 전국 데이터를 대상으로 상호 연동과 융합을 위한 기술개발을 시도하였다. 우선 도로명주소기본도와 수치지형도 간 POI의 연계를 위한 연구를 수행하고 있다. 이 연구에서는 두도면 내의 POI를 대상으로 다양한 매칭과 이에 기반 한 의사결정 방법론을 이용하여 자동으로 상호 인식 및 연계가 될 수 있도록 하고 있다. 다음으로 지적도와 수치지형도 간의 객체 매칭에 관한 연구이다. 수치지형도와 지적도의 불부합으로 인하여 그 동안 지적도를 수치지형도에 맞춘 형태의 편집지적도를 지속적으로 생산하여 왔고 앞으로도 그럴 것이다. 문제는 여기에 필요한 많은 예산이다. 만일 수치지형도와 지적도를 자동으로 매칭하여 편집지적도를 자동으로 생산할 수 있게 된다면 많은 예산 절감과 함께 편집지적도의 현시성을 확보할 수 있게 될 것이다. 다음으로 항공사진과 도로망도의 매칭이다. 현재 주요 포털에서 제공하고 있는 항공사진 기반의 도로망도는 기복변위와 같은 문제로 인하여 시각적으로 많은 위치오차를 보이고 있다. 만일 항공사진의 도로영역을 자동으로 추출하여 벡터 도로망도와 매칭을 할 수 있다면 보다 시각적으로 안정된 항공사진 상의 도로망도를 제공할 수 있게 되고 나아가 이는 차량이나 보행자 네비게이션에 매우 요긴하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다. 다음으로 서로 LOD가 다른 도로망도의 매칭 문제이다. 많은 기관에서 독자적으로 생산한 도로망도는 LOD의 상이에 기인한 문제가 많아 서로 연계 활용되지 않는다. 이를 자동으로 매칭하여 서로 연계할 수 있다면 두 도로망도가 보유하고 있는 속성정보를 공동으로 이용할 수 있는 이익을 얻게 된다. 다음으로 지도 일반화 기술이다. 지도일반화는 지적도내 수치지형도와 같은 대규모 데이터를 스마트폰과 같은 저용량 사양의 기기에 서비스 할 때 불가결한 기술이다. 지도상 객체들의 기하학적 정보 손실을 최소화하면서 메모리 측면에서 경량의 지도를 자동으로 만들어 낸다면 이는 매우 요긴하게 이용될 것이다. 마지막으로 보행자 네트워크의 생성기술이다. 보행자 네트워크는 그 상세함과 정보용량에 있어서 차량용 네트워크에 견줄 수 없다. 이를 현행의 차량용 네트워크와 같이 수동으로 생성하는 데에는 경제적으로나 시간적으로 막대한 투자가 필요하다. 따라서 이를 기존의 공간정보들을 활용하여 자동으로 생성해 낼 수 있다면 그 파급효과는 매우 크리라 판단된다. 본 발표에서는 위와 같은 주제에 관하여 그간의 연구 성과를 개략적으로 소개해본다.
