Recently, Korea had virtually reached an FTA deal with China on November 10, 2014 after the 14 rounds of negotiation during past two and half years. The two countries agreed to the FTA's 22 chapters, including products, services, investment, e-commerce, finance, communication, and other trade issues, but rice and several sensitive agricultural and fisheries products were excluded from the deal. Korea and China will remove their import tariffs on more than 90 percent of all products and more than 85 percent of imports by value within 20 years once the FTA is implemented. This paper intends to analyze the impacts of Korea-China FTA on the major industries in Daegu-Gyeongbuk region. Considering the statistics on the bilateral trade between China and Daegu-Gyeongbuk region, import tariff rates of the two countries, trade specialization indices of the major industries, and the package of Korea-China FTA deal, this study investigated the sectoral effects of Korea-China FTA on the four main industries, textiles, electrical-electronics, machinery and auto parts, and steel and iron industries in that region.

Global production networks (GPNs) emerged as multinational companies strategically relocated different stages of their value chain over many regions. Since GPNs require moving materials, parts, components and finished products across national borders multiple times, as well as coordinating it efficiently, they are intensified further within an integrated region. Within the region, developed countries which enjoy a comparative advantage in higher value-added tasks specialize in the production of ICT parts and components and exhibit high export RCA indices while developing countries show high import RCA indices. But, as developing countries upgrade technological capabilities and achieve industrial upgrading through participation in GPNs, their level of sophistication improves. East Asian countries have participated in GPNs to a greater degree when compared to countries in other regions because of a variety of factors. They have benefited much as shown by a significant increase in the level of ICT sophistication and export shares, which in turn led to uneven regional developments of GPNs in the ICT parts and components industry.

본 연구는 미 특허청(USPTO) 자료를 이용하여 기술활동이 가장 활발한 OECD국가를 중심으로 세부기술 부문별 기술활동의 유형을 분석하고자 하는 데에 목적을 두고 있다. 특히 OECD 국가들이 정보통신(IT) 기술에 있어 특정 기술분야로의 수렴화 경향을 보이는가 혹은 다양한 기술적인 분화현상을 보이는 가를 분석하는 것이 본 연구의 주요 관심사이다. 기존 연구들이 정보통신기술을 협의로 정의, 분석의 대상으로 삼아 왔으나, 본 고에서는 정보통신 분야를 보다 확대된 개념으로서 정의하고, 미국 특허청 자료(1985-1996)를 이용하여 정보통신 분야의 기술개발 활동의 특화현상을 분석하였다. 연구결과로서 정보통신(IT) 기술 분야에서는 기술적 수렴현상이 점차적으로 나타나고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 국가별 결과에 있어서는 서로 다른 유형이 관측되었는데 정보통신 산업에 있어서 유럽의 주요 국가들은 특허통계량이 감소하는 추세를 나타냈으며 기술추격(catch-up) 과정은 나타나지 않았음을 보여 주었다. 이와 반대로, 일본은 유럽의 주요 국가에 비하여 매우 특징적인 기술개발 유형을 나타내었다. 예를 들어, RTA지수는 일본이 정보처리기술, 컴퓨터시스템 및 단말기술, 집적회로 분야에 특화되어 있음을 나타냈다. 또한 캐나다와 한국도 특징적인 기술개발 경향을 나타내었는 바, 캐나다는 방송시스템 및 전송기술에서 기술적 강점을 지닌 것으로 분석되었으며 한국의 기술추격 분야는 방송시스템, 정보처리 및 반도체기술 분야인 것으로 나타났다.

This paper aims to delineate Central Business District(CBD) and subcentres of Seoul and compare the functional differences of them by spatial scan statistics. Most existing studies to delimit Seoul CBD have two limits in the methods to make boundaries. First, most Seoul CBD-defining studies presuppose some central area contains CBD and look into just that area in a concentrating manner because it is too difficult to collect the data in a whole city boundary. Therefore the CBD areas have been localized in that study areas. But I analysed the data of the whole area of Seoul and was able to define the CBD and subcentres of Seoul. Second, I analysed the data by a spatial scan statistics technique and was able to minimize the number of subjective items in constructing some conditions for CBD. The CBD area in this study is enlarged eastward over East Gate, a national treasure in Seoul, than the areas in existing studies. In the contrary, westwardly, our CBD is set back a little. The two competing central places in Seoul, CBD and Gangnam have some different specialized subareas. CBD has more governing authorities and wholesale stores and Gangnam has many conglomerates HQs, Offices and cosmetic clinics.

The flower industry in Gyeongnam Province is the second largest flower producing area after Gyeonggi Province in Korea. Gyeongnam Province is also one of the provinces where flower industry was first introduced, which has started in the middle of 1960s. The share of Gyeongnam Province was 16.2% in area and 14.3% in sales in 2006. The most outstanding feature of Gyeongnam's flower industry is that it has been particularly specialized in cut-flower industry, the share of which was 77.6% of Gyeongnam Province in area. Another feature is that the industry continued to be shrunk in size due to the expansion of urban area. For Gyeongnam's floral industry to be competitive not only in domestic market but in international market, its competitiveness in quality and price is kept being promoted. In addition, the availability of land is essential to the growth of the flower industry of Gyeongnam Province.

This study analyzed the competition among three game platforms, PC, Console and Mobile in aspect of user's gratifications using niche analysis. To do this, four gratification factors, 'transportability and accessibility', 'liveliness and variety', 'availability and economic feasibility', 'relationship', were assessed. To investigate competition level among three game platforms, niche breadth, niche overlap, competitive superiority of four gratification factors were analyzed. The results of niche analysis show that mobile platform appeared as a most competitive platform because it utilized diverse resources for game user gratification and had competitive superiority in 'transportability and accessibility' which appeared as most important factor determining user's gratification. However there was no game platform which had competitive superiority in all four gratification factors.

Biographical information about people is usually collected and provided by a company or an institute which has a specific standard to select people for service. Recently, user oriented contents service like Wikipedia has started biographical information service, Wikipedia Biography Portal, in which users select people and freely describe about them. This study collected 500 biographical data from three categories of Wikipedia biography portal such as criminals, faculty, and directors. The contents of data from each category were analyzed with the word frequency and the divergence indicator to identify the characteristics of each category. As a result, divergency indicator is effective to represent the differential factors of each category. This study provides word clouds of top 100 word with divergence indicator and top 100 common words of three categories with word frequency as a guide for users to write about a person in these categories and for editors to accept and monitor the biography from users.
