This study aims to evaluate and identify the Patterns of the technological competitiveness of the Korean industry. Such statistics as R&D expenditure and R&D manpower as input indexes, US patent registrations and export sales as output indexes were used. it was turned out that such industrial types as specialized-suppliers industries, scale-intensive industries and science-intensive industries showed relatively strong technical competitiveness. However, resource-intensive industries and labor-intensive industries which had maintained a competitive advantage in the 1970s and the 1980s appeared to be gradually losing their technological competitiveness. These results are by and large in accordance with the trends of export performance. This study conducted the canonical discriminant analysis in order to test the correctness of the patterns displayed in the technological competitiveness of the Korean industry. The result of the analysis showed that the five patterns of technical strength of the Korean industries are significantly independent each other for four respective variables which are used to distinguish industries. This implies that the ex ante industrial classification into five typers was correct in terms of the ex post statistics, and that the patterns of technological competitiveness discovered in this study are also statistically correct.

This study investigates empirically the export competitiveness of Korea and Japan in America by calculating 4 indexes such as market share index(MSI), export similarity index(ESI), market comparative adventage index(MCAI) and market share expansion ratio(MSER)-export similarity deepening ratio(ESDR). The empirical finding of this analysis shows that Korea is competitive in the labor-intensive products and Japan in the technology-intensive products. This result also meets the general understandings that Japan is superior to Korea in the export competitiveness such as value added of goods, etc. Therefore, in order to strengthen the export competitiveness of Korea in the US market, it's desirable for our firms and government to improve the quality of product ranges by developing technologies focused on the higher value-added products.

Logistics companies distinguish between medium-sized business and small business according to the size of enterprises. Of course, conglomerates are called global corporations. In this study, mid-sized companies over a certain size or more and those below are classified and decide the priorities among important factors to secure competitiveness in logistics companies are determined through AHP technique. Mid-sized companies are companies that can provide more than two logistics services. For example, they provide warehousing and transportation services in the same time. small companies are companies that can mostly provide one functional service. Warehousing, transportation, manpower, and information are listed as factors in this study. As a result of the study, medium-sized companies emphasized on the importance of transportation. When it comes to small companies, warehousing was emphasized as an important factor. Due to the simultaneous and contemporary service of warehousing and transportation in small-sized company, the reliable image of the company will be underestimated in case of delays in transportation. Competitiveness will also be weakened. Global corporations or conglomerates will start to consider relocating warehousing areas to others except for the central storage hub. They won't plan to invest directly, either. Therefore, it will be possible to secure competitiveness by providing the function of warehousing and to signed easily partnership.

우리나라 경제성장을 견인하던 산업단지가 노후화되면서 노후산업단지의 경쟁력 향상을 위한 대응이 요구되고 있다. 본 논문은 국내 121개 노후산업단지를 대상으로 경쟁력 결정요인을 실증 분석하는 데 목적을 두었다. 본 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 산업구조 특성, 신규업체 특성, 근무 및 생산 환경, 배후지역 특성은 노후산업단지의 경쟁력에 영향을 미치지만 산업단지 규모에 따라 영향력은 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 대규모 노후산업단지의 경우에는 구조조정을 위한 중앙정부의 역할이 중요한 반면, 소규모의 경우에는 대규모 정비사업보다 지방정부의 입주업체 관리가 더욱 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 본 논문의 결과는 노후산업단지의 효과적인 관리를 위한 시사점을 제공하였다.
