Products elicit the consumer's purchasing behavior by satisfying their needs and are cognized as the combination of various needs attributes. Also R&D is referred as a series of technical development activities to meet the consumer's needs attributes. In particular, in the market-oriented R&D era, it could obtain the legitimacy by developing the R&D based on the needs attributes. In this study, we aimed to investigate the priority setting in R&D field, considering consumer's needs attributes. To be concrete, we tried to present the evolutional direction of desirable phased R&D according to 'the importance degree for consumers on the attributes (functions) of the certain products' and 'the urgency degree of technical quality to fulfill its needs'. To achieve this, we targeted SMART TV, the convergence product, which contains the uncertainty in terms of marketability and technological aspect, and analyzed the priority of the R&D in SMART TV field. Based on the result of the analysis, 4-steps product concept (ultra high definition TV, interactive TV, 3D/immersive TV, personalized TV) is derived by analyzing the evolutional direction of R&D in SMART TV field. This finding implies that the success possibilities of product could be enhanced during the process of the evolution of products that have multiple needs attributes, by pursuing the R&D which fulfills the needs attribute first required in the market. In addition, it provides a useful framework to design the R&D roadmap in an aspect of R&D strategy.

In Korea, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play an pivotal role in the national economy, accounting for 99.9% of all enterprises, 87.9% of total employment, and 48.3% of production. In spite of their crucial role in the national development, most of SMEs suffer from a lack of R&D related resources. Public R&D organizations such as government-funded research institutes can provide SMEs with valuable supplementary technological knowledge and help them build technological capacity. In this regard, this study estimated the effect of internal R&D investment and private-public R&D cooperation on technological innovation of ICT SMEs based on 2016 ETRI Survey. Building on previous literatures, the study established and tested a research model using binary logistic regression analysis. First, internal R&D investment and preferences for open innovation demonstrated the strengthening of R&D collaboration. Second, internal R&D investment and R&D cooperation showed a positive effect on both product and process innovation. Therefore, internal R&D capability and taking advantage of R&D collaboration are needed to achieve technological innovation for SMEs in ICT sector. This study also discuss implications for encouraging private-public R&D cooperation.

Live streaming commerce has emerged as an innovative e-commerce model. This study, based on the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM), aims to explore the impact of Key Opinion Consumers' (KOCs) attributes in live streaming commerce on purchase intentions on short video platforms. A survey was conducted with 411 consumers, and data analysis and hypothesis testing were performed using SPSS 24.0 and AMOS 23.0 software. Research has found that differences in consumers' information processing abilities lead to different pathway selections. Central route factors such as recommendation consistency, product involvement, and professionalism, as well as peripheral route factors such as recommendation timeliness, all have significant positive effects on consumers' purchase intention. However, visual cues in the peripheral route do not have a significant impact. This study aims to provide theoretical support and practical guidance for the development of the live streaming commerce industry, and to help companies adjust their promotion strategies based on differences in consumer information processing, thereby improving purchase conversion rates.

The study is in attempting for reviewing the selection problem of the measurement and the model, concerning a consumer satisfaction model. Therefore, a common model, which measures degree of consumer satisfaction by an arithmetic mean from measurement method including data, which assess compulsively the attribution and the importance to consumers, shows the problems of a field application. There showed a high predictive validity in the model of a singular item using the degree of a general satisfaction rather than a detailed assessment. However, the single model needs the model of consumer satisfaction from the using of plural items, because of the field problems that produce in an alternative application. There showed a high significance level in the model including variables, which are showing a high correlation between purchase intention and predictive validity.

DNA 컴퓨팅은 분자 수준(molecular level)에서 연산을 수행한다. 따라서 일반적인 실리콘 기반의 컴퓨터에서와는 달리, 순차적인 연산 제어를 보장하기 어렵다는 특징이 있다. 그러나 DNA 컴퓨팅은 화학반응에 기초한 연산이기 때문에, 실험자가 의도한 연산을 많은 수의 분자에 동시에 적용할 수 있으므로 실리콘 기반의 컴퓨터와는 비교할 수 없는 병렬 연산을 구현할 수 있다. 병렬 연산을 구현하고자 할 때, 일반적으로 연산에 사용하는 모든 DNA 분자들을 대상으로 연산을 구현할 수도 있다. 그러나 전체가 아닌 일부의 분자들을 상대로 연산을 수행하는 것 역시 가능하며 이 때 자연스러운 방법으로 사용할 수 있는 방법이 배깅(Bagging)이나 부스팅(Boosting)과 같은 앙상블(ensemble) 계열의 학습 방법이다. 일반적인 부스팅과 달리 가중치를 부여하는 것이 아니라 특정 학습자(learner)를 나타내는 분자들을 증폭한다면 가중치를 분자의 양으로 표현하는 것이 가능하므로 분자 수준에서 앙상블 계열의 학습을 구현하는 것이 가능하다. 본 논문에서는 앙상블 계열의 학습 방법 중 특히 부스팅의 효과를 DNA 컴퓨팅에 응용하고자 할 때, 어떤 방법이 가능하며, 표현 과정에서 고려해야 할 사항은 어떠한 것들이 있는지 고려하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 규모를 사전에 한정할 수 없는 진화 가능한 그래프 구조(evolutionary graph structure)를 학습할 수 있는 방법을 찾아보고자 한다. 진화 가능한 그래프 구조는 기존의 DNA 컴퓨팅 방법으로는 학습할 수 없는 문제이다. 그러나 조합 가능한 수를 사전에 정의할 수 없기 때문에 분자의 수에 상관없이 동일한 연산 시간에 문제를 해결할 수 있는 DNA 컴퓨팅의 장정을 가장 잘 발휘할 수 있는 문제이기도 하다.개별 태스크의 특성에 따른 성능 조절과 태스크의 변화에 따른 빠른 반응을 자랑으로 한다. 본 논문에선 TIB 알고리즘을 리눅스 커널에 구현하여 성능을 평가하였고 그 결과 리눅스에서 사용되는 기존 인터벌 기반의 알고리즘들에 비해 좋은 전력 절감 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.과는 한식 외식업체들이 고객들의 재구매 의도를 높이기 위해서는 한식 외식업체의 서비스요인, 식음료요인, 이벤트 요인 등을 강화함으로써 전반적인 종사원 서비스 품질과 식음료품질을 높이는 전략을 취해야 한다는 것을 시사해주고 있다. 본 연구는 대구 경북소재 한식 외식업체만을 대상으로 하여 연구를 실시하여 연구의 일반화와 한식 외식업체를 이용하는 이용 고객들이 한식 외식업체를 재방문하는 재구매 의도가 발생하는데 있어 발생하는 과정을 설명하는 종단적 연구를 실시하지 못한 한계점을 가지고 있다.아직 산업 디자인이 품질경쟁력에 크게 영향을 미치는 성숙단계에 이르지 못하였음을 의미한다. (2) 제품 디자인에게 영향을 끼치는 유의적인 변수는 연구개발력, 연구개발투자 수준, 혁신활동 수준(5S, TPM, 6Sigma 운동, QC 등)이며, 제품 디자인은 우선 품질경쟁력을 높여 간접적으로 고객만족과 고객 충성을 유발하는 것으로 추정되었다. 상기의 분석결과로부터, 본 연구는 다음과 같은 정책적 함의를 도출하였다. 첫째, 신상품 개발과 혁신을 위한 포괄적인 연구개발 프로젝트를 품질 경쟁력의 주요 결정요인(제품의 기본성능, 신뢰성, 수명(내구성) 및 제품 디자인)과 연계하여 추진해야 할 것이다. 둘째, 기업은 디자인 경영 마인드 제고와 디자인 전문인력 양성을, 대학은 디자인 현장 업무를 통하여 창의력 증진과 기획 및 마케팅 능력 교육을, 정부는 디자인 기술개발 및 디자인 교육지원의 강화를 통하여 각각 디자인 경쟁력$\righta

We examine the current status of smart factory deployment and diffusion programs in Korea, and seek to promote manufacturing innovation from the perspective of SMEs. The main conclusions of this paper are as follows. First, without additional market creation and supply chain improvement, smart factories are unlikely to raise profitability leading to overinvestment. Second, new business models need to connect "manufacturing process efficiency" with "R&D" and "marketing" in value chain in smart factories. Third, when introducing smart factories, we need to focus on the areas where process-embedded technology is directly linked to corporate competitiveness. Based on the modularity-maturity matrix (Pisano and Shih, 2012) and the examples of U.S. Manufacturing Innovation Institute (MII), we establish the new smart factory deployment policy measures as follows. First, we shift our smart factory strategy from quantitative expansion to qualitative upgrading. Second, we promote by each sector the formation of industrial commons that help SMEs to jointly develop R&D, exchange standardized data and practices, and facilitate supplier-led procurement system. Third, to implement new technology and business models, we encourage partnerships, collaborations, and M&As between conventional SMEs and start-ups and business ventures. Fourth, the whole deployment process of smart factories is indexed in detail to identify the problems and provide appropriate solutions.

Semiconductor deposition equipment is an important example of Complex Products and Systems (CoPS) and requires in-depth understanding of user requirements. For this reason, we analyzed and compared users' and producers' perspectives on the quality attributes of semiconductor deposition equipment using the Kano model. The results show that the patterns of users' perspectives were different from those of producers. Out of 22 level-2 quality attributes, producers evaluated all 22 attributes as attractive qualities, but users evaluated only 6 as "attractive," 10 as "indifferent," 2 as "must have," and 4 as "other." Although all quality attributes were attractive for producers, only those related to reliability were attractive or must-have qualities, and all others were "indifferent." This result implies that the perspectives on quality attributes may be different between users and producers, and producers should revise their perspectives and strategies. In addition, the results support the characteristics of CoPS suggested by literature implying that performance is more important than economies of scale and cost reduction. It is suggested that producers of semiconductor deposition equipment strategize their approaches to users by considering the characteristics of CoPS.

Recently, the opening of the world economy and regional ization of national demand endless endeavors and investments to upbring design-industry for regional economic development. Our domestic commodities, declined in price competitiveness against China and Southeast Asian nations, need construction of brand image of commodities and consumers' response through expanded concernments in marketing spheres. The design-industry is a important means to strengthen competitiveness of the domestic industry through discrimination of commodities and creativity of high added value. Design-industry has some problems in circumstances; commodity development and marketing are below the level in the sphere of manufacture industry yet and businessmen are unwilling to invest demanded for development of new design. Establishment of the personal foundation, useful for accumulating competent designers' experiences and technologies, can not pass limit. In addition, a system and a policy to protect design-industry have a problem in effectiveness. Concrete strategies to activate design industry which meets social and cultural circumstances of Daegu and Gyeongbuk region are to establish policy for construction of specialists' infra, systematization of study & development of design, common ownership of information on design, and expansion of design company. The business to upbring design in the region should be operated to develop competitive commodities which is helpful to the regional economy and to increase value of the regional enterprises' brand. In addition, foundation of design should be expanded personal, material, and informational infra through design-centered so that they are helpful to activate economy of Daegu and Gyeongbuk through making design reformational cluster.
