The "logistics industry" is recommended as an economic growth power in the future in Korea. In the past, Korea has handled China's freight volume overflow as a transfer hub. However, recently China has been constructing its own port facilities and many mega fleets have been moving to China's ports. As a result, the position of Korea's hub-ports facing a crisis. Now, new strategies are necessary for renovating Korea's logistics industry and international competitiveness. This study proposes a "value-added logistics cluster" as a new strategy. In particular, this study proposes a Korean value-added logistics cluster that maximizes Korea's locational and industrial advantages. Additionally, a model for a value-added logistics cluster is proposed for the rehabilitation of Korea's ports as logistics hubs in Northeast Asia. Many analyses are executed step-by-step to develop a Korean value-added logistics cluster model, such as an analysis of the relationship between the logistics industry and other industries for the definition of cluster components. Lastly, the Korean value-added logistics cluster model is applied to Kwangyang port, which is currently confronted with a crisis because of the decrease of freight volume.

The state of Baden-Württemberg has one of the strongest regional economies in Germany and is known as one of the most innovative regions in both Germany and Europe. Clusters have played a central role in innovation strategies. The article analyzes the current cluster policy in Baden-Württemberg. The Baden-Württemberg cluster policy has systematically supported the development of clusters, cluster initiatives, and state-wide networks. It has also provided increasing support to regions in developing and implementing innovation and networking activities. The cluster policy has specifically focused on promoting collaborations across different industries and technologies, as well as implementing measures for internationalization. The goal of the Baden-Württemberg state cluster policy was to professionalize cluster management and improve its quality. The cluster policy in Baden-Württemberg has adopted a bottom-up approach and utilized various measures and instruments to promote dialogue. The cluster policy in Baden-Württemberg has established a dedicated cluster agency responsible for developing strategies and implementing individual measures.

This paper suggests a genuine method to estimate the agglomeration effects of Industrial Cluster focusing on the FOODPOLIS (KOREA NATIONAL FOOD CLUSTER). In this study, we will focus on two issues related to the clustering effect. First, Clusters affect productivity, and a cluster allows companies to operate more productively in inputs; accessing technology, human resource, information, services, and needed institutions. Second, we assume that the effects of Industrial Cluster can be estimated from measurement on differency of an added value between large-scale enterprises and smaller ones. To demonstrate effectiveness of this approach, the estimated effect was compared with that from the related study (A Mini-Cluster). Industry Clusters have been considered as critical factors for regional competitiveness and economic revitalization. For this, the government and local government should find a way and strategy to provide useful contents that can attract the participation of firms and to secure strategic positioning and competition strategies.

This paper critically examines cluster dynamics and development in a multi-scalar approach, criticizing both the argument overemphasizing local networks and endogenous development for regional development and the contention highlighting global networks and the role of global players. We argue that state policies, exogenous and direct, play a significant part in cluster dynamics and development especially in the case of Korea where the state government's strong policies have led to rapid industrialization. We analyze multi-scalar factors, especially the government policies at a national level, in the development paths of the three cases including Ulsan automobile cluster, Daedeok research cluster, and Dongdaemun fashion cluster.

This study aimed to explore the patterns of college students' dialogic argumentation in the context of nanotechnology issues, and to compare these patterns based on their idiocentrism and allocentrism. Nanotechnology represents the characteristics of socioscientific issues in that it is widely used in various fields, but at the same time, it includes the likelihood of negative effects. 33 college students who enrolled in science-related course participated in this study. Participants were divided into idiocentric groups and allocentric groups based on the INDCOL scores, and they participated in group discussions on nanotechnology. All discussions were audiotaped and analyzed using the framework of discourse clusters and schemes. Results showed that participating students engaged in dialogic argumentation with the process of exchanging of individual perspectives, exploration of different perspectives, and coordination and negotiation; specifically, they spent most of their time in exploring different values and perspectives regarding nanotechnology. Results also indicated the differences in discourse clusters and discourse schemes between idiocentric and allocentric groups. Allocentric groups more often negotiated to settle on a group decision than idiocentric groups did, and discourse schemes in their negotiation process were slightly different from the ones in idiocentric groups.

최근 이슈가 되고 있는 클라우드 컴퓨팅은 다수의 노드를 이용한 클러스터를 사용한다. 이러한 클러스터를 효율적으로 관리하기 위해 모니터링 툴을 사용하고 있다. 하지만, 기존의 모니터링 툴은 클러스터를 구성하는 노드의 가용성과 오버헤드, 데이터 수집/전송 방식에 중심을 둔 모니터링 툴이기 때문에 클라우드 클러스터의 세부 정보까지 모니터링 할 수 없다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 클라우드 컴퓨팅을 구축할 수 있는 플랫폼인 Hadoop을 위한 모니터링 툴을 제안한다.

본 논문에서는 서로 다른 크기의 클러스터에 대해서 효과적으로 데이터를 분류할 수 있는 내부클러스터를 이용한 개선된 FCM 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 내부클러스터는 평균내부거리 안쪽에 속하는 데이터 집합으로 클러스터의 크기와 밀도에 비례한다. 그러므로 이를 이용한 개선된 FCM 알고리즘은 기존의 FCM 알고리즘이 클러스터 크기가 다를 경우 퍼지분할과 중심탐색을 제대로 하지 못하는 문제점을 개선한 수 있다. 실험을 통하여 개선된 FCM 알고리즘이 분류 엔트로피에 의해 기존의 FCM 알고리즘 보다 더 좋은 결과를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

Sometimes called the Silicon Fen, the Cambridge cluster is well known as the most innovative hi-tech cluster in the world. This paper attempts to explore the evolutionary dynamics of the Cambridge cluster, drawing upon the triple-helix approach. To understand the evolutionary dynamics of the Cambridge cluster, it is important to examine the role and impact of the University of Cambridge, which is conceived as one of the best higher educational institutions in the world. The Cambridge cluster has been evolved on the basis of a strong university-industry relationship. University spin-outs have a long tradition in Cambridge with the history of more than a century, and they have played a critical role in making the cluster more innovative. Business networks and social capital molded for a long time in the region become a foundation for active local spin-out activities. However, since 2000 the central government started steadily to require British universities to be an entrepreneurial university, with the purpose of the reduction of university subsidies. As a result of this, spin-out activities in the Cambridge cluster show a sharp decline, which is a factor of threatening the dynamic evolution of the cluster.
