Today, many firms face the environment of high uncertainty and severe competition due to the rapid technology development and the diverse needs of customers. In the business environment, one of the most important ways to gain sustainable competitive advantage and future growth engine is related to NPD (New Product Development), which is a very important issue for practice and academia. Thus, this study intends to provide new values to practitioners and researchers related to NPD by analyzing current research trends and future trends in NPD field. For this, we bibliometrically analyzed keyword networks which consist of keywords that were already published in the eminent journals from Scopus database to generate insights that have not been captured in the previous reviews on the topic. As a result, we could understand the extant research streams in NPD field, and suggest the changes of specific research topics based on the connected relationships among keywords over the time. In addition, we also foresaw the general future research trends in NPD field based on the keywords according to preferential attachment processes. Through this study, it was confirmed that NPD keyword network is a small world network that follows the distribution of power law and the growth of network is formed by link formation by keyword preferential attachment. In addition, through component analysis and centrality analysis, keywords such as Innovation, New product innovation, Risk management, Concurrent engineering, Research and development, and Product life cycle management are highly centralized in NPD keyword network. On the other hand, as a result of examining the change of preferential attachment of keywords over the time, we suggested the required new research direction including i) NPD collaboration with suppliers, ii) NPD considering market uncertainty, iii) NPD considering convergence with the other academic areas like technology management and knowledge management, iv) NPD from SME(Small and medium enterprises) perspective. The results of this study can be used to determine the research trends of NPD and the new research themes for interdisciplinary studies with other disciplines.

In this review paper, previous studies on layered double hydroxides (LDHs) published in the Korean Citation Index (KCI) were examined to investigate a research trend for LDHs in Korea. Since the first publication in 2002, 160 papers on LDHs have been published until January 2023. Among the 31 academic fields, top 5 fields appeared in the order of chemical engineering, chemistry, materials engineering, environmental engineering, and physics. The chemical engineering shows the highest record of published paper (71 papers) while around 10 papers have been published in the other four fields. All papers were reclassified into 15 research fields based on the industrial and academic purposes of using LDHs. The top 5 in these fields are in order of environmental purification materials, polymer catalyst materials, battery materials, pharmaceutical/medicinal materials, and basic physicochemical properties. These findings suggest that researches on the applications of LDH materials in the academic fields of chemical engineering and chemistry for the improvement of their functions such as environmental purification materials, polymer catalysts, and batteries have been being most actively conducted. The application of LDHs for cosmetic and agricultural purposes and for developing environmental sensors is still at the beginning of research. Considering a market-potential and high-efficiency-eco-friendly trend, however, it will deserve our attention as emerging application fields in the future. All reclassified papers were summarized in our tables and a supplementary file, including information on applied materials, key results, characteristics and synthesis methods of LDHs used. We expect that our findings of overall trends in LDH research in Korea can help design future researches with LDHs and suggest policies for resources and energies as well as environments efficiently.

인터랙티브 TV 시장이 활성화됨에 따라 DCATV와 IPTV의 경쟁이 본격화되면서 사용성에 직접적인 영향을 주는 인터페이스에 대한 관심도 증대되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구는 인터랙티브 TV의 서비스 및 인터페이스에 대한 사용자의 멘탈모델을 이해하는 것을 목적으로 진행하였다. 연구 방법은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 문헌 조사를 통해 인터랙티브 TV의 2가지 유형인 DCATV와 IPTV의 기술적 차이점과 서비스 동향을 파악하였다. 둘째, 헬로우TV, C&M, 브로드앤TV, 쿡TV, 마이 엘지TV 등 인터랙티브 TV의 사례들을 비교분석 하였다. 셋째, 헬로우TV를 중심으로 사용성 평가를 실시하고 그 결과를 종합 분석하였다. 이를 통해 본 연구에서는 DCATV와 IPTV의 서비스 및 인터페이스에 대한 사용자 멘탈모델이 다르다는 것을 파악할 수 있었다. 특히 실시간으로 방송되는 '케이블TV채널'과 요청에 따라 다운로드 되는 'VOD'라는 두 가지 서비스는 인터랙션 방식과 제공 단위에 있어서 상이하며, 따라서 개념적 혼란을 야기할 수 있다. IPTV와 달리 두 가지 서비스를 함께 제공하는 DCATV에서는 대부분의 사용자들은 2가지의 멘탈모델을 병립시키지 못해 인지적 혼란을 느꼈고 VOD서비스에 대해서도 정확히 이해하지 못했다. 이는 VOD 명칭에 대해 어려움을 느끼는 것으로 생각되며 VOD명칭에 대한 개선이 필요했다. 이에 새롭게 변화된 쿡TV에서는 VOD란 명칭을 TV다시보기로 개선함으로써 명칭 개선이 필요함을 증명했다. 이러한 발견 점은 차후 인터랙티브 TV의 인터페이스 개발시 컨셉 개발을 위한 기초 자료로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This paper proposes a new strategy for assisting SMEs in S. Korea to grow by the use of free technologies, which include expired patents, patents that are effective in other countries but not in S. Korea, and technologies that were published without being patented. A key question answered in this paper is how to find valuable technologies developed by large companies that can be utilized by domestic SMEs. A procedure for identifying emerging free technologies was developed and is explained with an example. A quantitative analysis of technology trend was conducted on PCT's published patents that did not include S. Korea as a designated country, and then emerging IPC subclasses were identified. Among those emerging technology areas, the subclass areas where the number of Korean inventors is small were identified as key emerging free technology areas. Our method for identifying emerging free technologies can assist domestic SMEs to advance in the international market and guide the development of a national industrial strategy.

Since the advent of 3D and UHD contents, demand for high-quality panoramic images has been increasing. The UWV(Ultra-Wide Viewing) service uses a wider viewing angle than conventional panoramas to provide a lively experience for users and enhance their understanding of the event. In this paper, we propose a spatial adjacency map generation method and an UWV file storage format technology to provide UWV service. The spatial adjacency map measures the similarity between images and generate the position information of the images based on similarity. And the stitching time of the image can be shortened through the generated position information. Through the spatial adjacency map, we generate the large screen content quickly. The UWV file format which is based on ISOBMFF process spatial adjacency map and videos and support random access. In this paper, we design the UWV player to verify the spatial adjacency map and UWV file format and show the result of experiments.
