Various policy declarations and institutional experiments involving artificial intelligence are being made in most countries. Depending on how the artificial intelligence policy changes, the role of the government, the scope of the policy, and the policy means used may vary, which can lead to the success or failure of the policy. This study proposed a perspective on AI(Artificial Intelligence) in policy research, investigated the theory of path change, and derived the characteristics of path change in AI policy. Since AI policy is related to a wide range of policy areas and the policy making is at the start points, this study is based on the neo-institutional path theory about the types of institutional changes. As a result of this study, AI policy showed the characteristics of path creation, and in detail presented the conflict relationship between institutional design elements, the scalability of policy areas, policy stratification and policy mix, the top policy characteristics transcending the law, and the experiment for regulatory innovation. Since AI can also be used as a key tool for policy innovation in the future, research on the path and characteristics of AI policy will provide a new direction and approach to government policy or institutional innovation seeking digital transformation.

This study investigated the comprehension of the occupational safety policy direction by job characteristics of the safety managers at 211 workplace selected under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. As for the characteristics of the subjects' firms, there was difference in their perception on the occupational safety policy direction by their region, type, scale, and the existence of labor union. Regarding the job characteristics of the subjects, there was difference in the comprehension of the occupational safety policy direction by their age, experience and department. This study suggests that the government policy as well as the awareness about safety by management and safety managers need to be changed by analyzing the comprehension of occupational safety policy direction by the job characteristics of corporate occupational safety managers.

This article examines the historical and general characteristics of science and technology policy in Korea. Historical characteristics are analyzed through formation period, growth period, and transition period. Korea institutional sis for the promotion of science and technology was made from the initial stage of industrialization. As national R&D programs were launched, technological activities in the private sector were rapidly increased from the 1980s. Korea pursued new directions of science and technology policy with the formation of related laws and Plans from the late 1990s. General characteristics are analyzed by the concept of 'policy regime'. The prime policy goal of science and technology policy in Korea has been related to industrial development so far. In the policy means, input element has been increased focusing on the external aspects. Bureaucratic policy culture has dominated other cultures including economic culture, academic culture, and civic culture.

Despite the importance of university-industry collaboration, issues pertaining to the characteristics of collaborating firms, their modes of interaction, and the relationship between these modes and outcomes are not well-researched. The impact of country's development on these issues is also unclear. This case study examines Japan and Thailand-respectively representing developed and developing countries-and features the following key findings: 1) the characteristics of firms affect modes, with large Japanese firms being more collaborative with universities, whereas Thai SMEs significantly collaborate more with universities; 2) the relationship between modes in Thai firms is stronger than those of Japanese firms because in Thailand, perhaps due to weak technological capacity, R&D collaboration is conducted alongside university consultancy services; and 3) in Japan, R&D and human resource development collaboration lead to product innovation, whereas different outcomes are expected from different modes in Thailand. Apparently, trivial informal collaborations do have significant impact on innovation.

The objective of this study is by analyzing villages("Ri" units) to specify the proper unit of the area that the rural development policy is suitable for, and to examine whether the current rural development policy considers the characteristics of community and region. The study included twelve districts(in Korean "Eup" or "Myun") and one hundred one villages(in Korean ri) in Poryong-si, Chungchungnam-do. Twelve and fifteen variables are respectively employe for the analysis of Myun`s and Ri`s. Using Factor Analysis, Cluster Analysis, and Z-Score Analysis, the study examines the degree of disadvantage and the process of growth pattern of each Myun or Ri. The Ri`s are also classified according to their functional characteristics. The results of this study could be summarized as follows; 1) There exist some problems in the current rural development policy because it does not take into consideration the characteristics community and region. 2) Except a few distinct of areas, the proper unit of the area for the rural development policy should be set being based on regional characteristics rather than the administrative units. 3) The spatial boundary of rural development policy should be sets from villages(ri) to beyond the unit of administrative units("Si" or "Gun"), according to the village unit analysis. 4) It is needed that community and region data should be consistently accumulated after specifying Standard Statistical Districts. 5) The application of indicators should be in accordance with the characteristics of the policy.

By November 2017, the number of overseas travelers of the Korean nationals reached a cumulative total of 2,409,155, bringing about 26 million overseas travelers. For Korea's future growth and development, it is necessary to make the country much more attractive than now, and to enhance the competitiveness of the domestic tourism field and attract the people of the world. The purpose of this study is to analyze the satisfaction of tourism policy and to utilize it in the development of tourism policy through the empirical analysis of the satisfaction of the tourism resource development and the tourism development policy in Korea. The policy that can achieve the policy purpose pursued by the regional tourism resource development and the future regional tourism resource development and development policy plan were suggested. It is necessary to consider factors related to development of tourism resources such as policy factors, development factors, management factors, and environmental factors. Local tourism development policies should be made considering the factors related to tourism policy expectation, regional characteristics, cultural characteristics and environmental characteristics. In addition, the global competitiveness of the tourism industry and enterprises should be strengthened through the protection of companies and rationalization of tourism related regulations in relation to the opening and expansion of the global tourism market scale.

Objectives: This study is to examine that drinking problems among university students were accounted for not only by student's individual characteristics but alcohol policy and environmental characteristics of the university in which students were enrolled. Method: Secondary data analysis was employed in which variables under study were derived from a raw data of a nationwide representative sample in 2009. Raw data under analysis included 3,665 students from 63 universities across Korea. Organizational and environmental characteristics of the university were collected from university administrators while individual characteristics and drinking behavior from the students in using self-administrated questionnaire. Multilevel regression analyses were employed to describe alcohol policy effects on students's drinking problems measured by AUDIT by using HLM7.0. Results: ICCs indicate that variation in drinking problem depends on alcohol policy of university. Multilevel regression models identified statistically significant factors in explaining variance of drinking problems. Group means on drinking problem are affected by indicators representing alcohol policy with level of drinking problem of student being decreased in accordance to level of availability of alcohol on campus. Conclusions: It is concluded that drinking problems among university students were associated with both individual characteristics and alcohol policy of the university they enrolled. This study supports policy belief that interventions at environmental as well as individual level are required to prevent drinking problem among university students.

With the recent proliferation of memory-intensive workloads such as deep learning, analyzing memory access characteristics for efficient memory management is becoming increasingly important. Since read and write operations in memory access have different characteristics, an efficient memory management policy should take into accountthe characteristics of thesetwo operationsseparately. Although some previous studies have considered the different characteristics of reads and writes, they require a modified hardware architecture supporting read bits and write bits. Unlike previous approaches, we propose a software-based management policy under the existing memory architecture for considering read/write characteristics. The proposed policy logically partitions memory space into the read/write area and the write area by making use of reference bits and dirty bits provided in modern paging systems. Simulation experiments with memory access traces show that our approach performs better than the CLOCK algorithm by 23% on average, and the effect is similar to the previous policy with hardware support.

Different from general operating policies applied for various waiting line situations, two complementary dyadic operating policies are applied alternatingly to a single server maintenance service center model. That is, either of the two dyadic Min (N, T) or Max (N, T) policy is applied to operate such center first and the other operating policy should be applied later, and then the same sequence of both operating policies is followed repeatedly. This operating policy is denoted by the Minimax (N, T) policy. Purpose: Because of the newly introduced operating policy, important system characteristics of the considered service center model such as the expected busy and idle periods, the expected number of customers in the service center and so on should be derived to provide necessary information for determination of the optimal operating policy. Methods: Based on concepts of the newly introduced Minimax (N, T) policy, all necessary system characteristics should be redefined and then derived by constructing appropriate relations between complementary two dyadic operating policies. Results: Desired system characteristics are obtained successfully using simple procedures developed by utilizing peculiar structure of the Minimax (N, T) policy. Conclusion: Applying Minimax (N, T) operating policy is equivalent to applying the simple N and T operating policies alternatingly.
