Korea has accomplished remarkable economic growth based on the accumulating technological capability. Science and Technology policy aiming at quantitative growth has concentrated on S&T hardware infra-structure construction but it overemphasizes technological factors. This policy has not sufficiently reflected social and cultural elements that should be incorporated in S&T development process. Therefore many experts have been emphasizing the importance of science culture as an important ingredient of S&T policy. This paper aims at investigating how science culture could be diffused. Nowadays, many countries have a strong interest in science shop as an important instrument of science culture. Science shop, however, has been activated in European area so it is not familar to Korea. However there are already a few science shops in Korea. In this paper, we will investigate the Korea science shops. In particular, we will analyze the current status, organizational structure and problems of Korea science shops. we will draw some important policy implications to activate science shops and to strengthen S&T policies in Korea.

This paper aims to presents a systematic procedure for the development of construction technology roadmap, which can consider the offshore wind farm on port. Then the weight among the large/medium/small classified construction technology has identified through the AHP(Analytical Hierarchy Process) approach using FGI(Focus Group Interview) and questionnaire study. Based on the priority for classified construction technology a construction technology roadmap for port offshore wind farm was also developed. The technology roadmap suggests the time frame(20 years, from 2016 to 2036) to complete R&D work for the classified construction technology of port offshore wind farm. Such construction technology roadmap can be utilized as a milestone in setting up the R&D strategy in the green port construction industry.

In 2004, KTX operated in Korea on the 5th in the world. But there are various factor on planed schedule delay of Big National Construction Project like Seoul-Busan High Speed Rail Project(Seoul-Busan HSR). For example, Often change of government policy, project management control problem of design and construction, conflict of interested party like environmental organization/resident are the main delay factors. The suggestions for improvement of the construction schedule through the Seoul-Busan HSR will help to make a new leap forward in rail construction.

The smart convergence environment, in which all industries are converged around ICT infrastructure -- with the eventual inclusion of both industry and culture -- looms. With the emergence of new convergence industries such as smart medicine, smart cities, and smart automobiles, the ICT infrastructure is recognized as the foundation of the overall economy. As such, the importance of the next generation of information and communication construction businesses, which constructs the ICT infrastructure, is highlighted under the smart convergence paradigm environment; various multilateral policies to foster the information and communication construction business -- led by the Ministry of Science, ICT, and Future Planning -- are being implemented. Like other infrastructure industries, however, the estimation of the demand function of the information and communication construction business overall is essential for effectively establishing promotional policies for information and communication construction businesses. However, there has been no study which theoretically estimates the market demand function in the information and communication construction business thus far. The pursuit of a creative economy is a national agenda, as the significance of accelerating the ICT infrastructure is emphasized. Therefore, this paper seeks to estimate quantitatively the demand function in the information and communication construction business using empirical data and a statistical model and then to present policy implications which will aid the development of the information and communication construction business.

Development of social overhead capital (SOC) requires huge national finance, and performance issues such as cost-efficiency, safety, and environment have been constantly raised. However, currently each construction client has limited access to its own projects' performance without analytic methodology for industry-level comparisons and benchmarking for improvement. To overcome this problem, this study proposes a comprehensive performance analysis framework for post-evaluation of large-scale construction projects. To this end, this study performed a case study of advanced countries (the U.S., the U.K. and Japan) and consultation with related experts to develop a tailored performance analysis framework for the Post- Construction Evaluation and Management system in Korea. The developed framework covers three categories (project performance, project efficiency, and ripple effect), nine areas (cost, schedule, change, safety, quality, demand, benefit-cost ratio, civil complaint, and defect), and 31 detailed metrics. Using industry-level project performance database and statistical techniques, the proposed framework can be used not only to diagnose excellent and unsatisfactory performance areas for completed construction projects, but also to provide reference data for future similar projects. This study can contribute to the improvement of clients' performance management practices and effectiveness of construction projects.

The study focuses on the problems of store space supply in apartment sites and suggests policy directions for the problem. Based on the results of field survey and site reconnaissance, this study identifies following problems and policy directions. First, the stores do not meet consumers various demand due to item limitations with small size. Consequently, there are many closed and/or unsold stores with high vacancy rates, Second, there is a tendency that the closed store rate becomes higher as apartment size becomes smaller. We suggest some law and regulation amendment that make store supply optional rather than mandatory in the case of small apartment site construction.

The government policy had placed new construction as the kernel of the investment in the road department. This had been shifted, however, since the government's budget of the road department reached its peak in 2000, new construction had came to a downsizing phase while the maintenance increased gradually. Considering this recent trend, the necessity of a new paradigm in the road policy had came to a fore, in order to prove the justification of increase in the maintenance budget as well as successfully fulfill the user's needs in the service quality. The developed countries that had intensively constructed social infrastructure in 1950-60s are enjoying a great achievement by applying the asset management concept in coping with the deterioration of the public facilities. This research suggests the basic framework in establishing "Korean Road Asset Management System" designed to efficiently manage the national road. The main feature of this system is to absorb economic analysis course into the current pavement management system, in order to form not only long-lasting but also preventive road management policy.

This paper discusses the European Union's smart specialization strategy and US manufacturing renaissance policy and then proposes new directions for regional industrial policy in Korea. The smart specialization strategy is summarized as the entrepreneurial self-discovery and strategic coordination; the manufacturing renaissance policy as the construction of industrial commons based on ecosystem; and Korea's regional industrial policy as the build-up of regional innovation system based upon industrial clusters. The policy cases of the EU and the United States demonstrate the fact that regional industrial policy should be geographically embedded. Also, they show the relevance of policy mix by linking industrial policy with innovation policy for cross-fertilization between different industry and technology. In addition, the state plays a role as a coordinator and mediator by embedding the democratic discipline into industrial ecosystems. Considering these points, regional industrial policy should be transformed into a platform system that can facilitate linkage between industry and technology.
