The purpose of this parer is to identify the input-output structure of oriental medicine and its alternative medicine industries in an inter-industry context and to estimate its forward and backward effects on macroeconomic variables such as production, employment and price level. Input-output tables released by The Bank of Korea were used as data in this research and inter-industry analysis was adopted as research methodology. The industry takes less share of production, price and trade in a Korean economy, compared with other industry. However, the industry's capability of creating value added is estimated to be well above that of other industry and that of making new employments is as more than 4 times as other industries. This result gives us policy implications that the government should enhance its subsidy policy and economic (tax) incentives for oriental medicine and its related alternative medicine industries.

The food-service industry in Korea has experienced remarkable growth during the past few decades. The objectives of this study were to analyze the influence of the food-service industry upon the national economy by using an input-output analysis and to find the industrial position of the food service industry. This paper analysed the economic effect of the food-service industry using 168 items arranged in a transaction table based on producer's prices in the 1995 input-output tables. The results of this study showed that the food-service industry had a major influence on the national economy of Korea. Based on the calculation of the following five coefficients; Korea's production inducement coefficient ranked as 50, its import inducement coefficient ranked as 28, its value added inducement coefficient ranked as 32, its worker inducement coefficient ranked as 2 and its employee inducement coefficient per final demand ranked as 5 in a total of 168 industries.

Current Korean ITS policies are decided by two persuading parties, so that ITS industry has great difficulties in establishing unified policies and developing ITS related industries. This paper provides the analysis of current Korean ITS policy issues, and suggests the ways how to activate the ITS industry. First, the ITS policy should be unified through agreement between related departments in government. Second, ITS should be recognized as social overhead capital and thus implemented as national infrastructure. Third, define the range of ITS services to prevent confusion with general wireless and mobile communication services.

In Korea, engineering education based on industry demand is highly emphasized; the survey of industry demand or company satisfaction is frequently conducted. Although engineering schools have often attempted and implemented the reform of engineering education, it was found that company satisfaction with college education was always low. In this context, this study aimed to find the cause of the low satisfaction. To this end, the social background for the active survey of industry demand and company satisfaction, and its progress were investigated. The findings of this study showed that the survey of industry demand in Korea has limitations in improving the quality of college education or developing its future demand, contrary to its intention. This industry demand based approach has its historical and social root in the Korea-specific model of the catching-up style industry development and technology innovation. Therefore, it is difficult to establish appropriate academy-industry relations and discover future vision based on this model. This study presents a new way to understand and develop the future-oriented industrial and social demand, not just arguing for the uselessness of the survey of industry demand in engineering education.

Korean railway Industry has not accumulated its technical system in the field of railway industry in despits of its centennial history, and its is subordinating to the other industries and railroad technique of developed countries. Therefore, Korean railway Industry should set up its technical basis, by setting up its technical system and knowledge on railroad. Korean railway Industry should made closed cooperation relationship of the industrial world, the academic world, research institutions and government containning long-term transportation and related technical policies with development plans of research institutions to enhence and improve railroad technique, so that it should escape from technical subordination of developed countries by reflection of the results.

While furniture making in general has been traditionally regarded as labor-intensive industry, the making of metal furniture has immense potential in terms of its growth and as a value added industry. Granted that the technology and designing of metal furniture in Korea are still behind the standards enjoyed by the developed nations of the world, still its future here is promising when we consider the comparatively short history of its industry, Korea depends on imports from abroad for almost all the natural resources she needs for industry. Metal (especially iron) industry is, however, one field where she has some advantage over other nations. Korea is a major producer of iron and her technology in this field is competitive in the international market. When viewed from the points of environment and ecology metal furniture has good points, as metals are recyclable when they are discarded and collected properly according to their reusability. This adds to the merits its industry has here as this country, with her limited natural resources, has yet to solve the pressing problem of disposing ever-increasing waste matter from homes and factories.

This research analyzes the current state of the semiconductor industry delivering the prediction for the future development of the semiconductor industry along with some semiconductor memory's responsive strategies. In the 2014, top 10 semiconductor companies were targeted and studied its growth based on its profitability and growth indications in perspective during three years. The system semiconductor industry with the increase in Hyper-scale customers, proactive actions in the technology consortium, is polarizing caused by increased R&D expense to ensure process scaling limits and high performance, and some results have shown: PC and Mobile slowdown and growth recession phenomenon due to IoT's unclear direction. The leading company is to secure new growth engines through 'Acquiring'. While as the subordinated companies following this consecutive survival through the 'Acquired', the future of system semiconductor industry is to strengthen the market dominance and its techniques by concentrating on the reorganization of the market by few large companies. Accordingly, the semiconductor memory industry is expected to reach the limit of its expansion to domain of system semiconductor, and it is highly suggesting the need of the 'Memory Life Extension' growth strategy.

ITS industry has general characteristics of Information Economy such as network externality and information duplex. It also has characteristics exclusive to ITS including timing and locality of information, spontaneous monopolist ability, public use, and system integration. Due to its characteristics ITS industry demands different business strategies and industrial policies from past economy. Reflecting on network externality, it would be more effective to open and mutually share or build a strategic coalition among the competitors and share the market, standardization at early stage is necessary for the market maturation. Reflecting its coexistent characteristics of spontaneous monopolistic ability, public use and profitability in ITS industry it is desirable to make determination on supply source and financial funding source for each system after reviewing public usage and profitability. ITS industry characteristics in Information Economy and the effects of these characteristics on business strategy and industrial policy are analyzed in this research.

The domestic food service industry has established its industrial basis since the overseas brands were introduced and international events were held in Korea. It also has showed a prominent growth rate as consumers began to show more interests in leisure and quality of working life(QWL) At this, the employees, constituting Points of contacts with consumers of the food service industry, have emerged as a Primarily critical concern in order for the food service industry, which can affect people in various ways, to adopt our own food culture and develop its business quality. In the food service industry, as a relatively labour-intensive industry, the manpower service is considered very important. Whether the industry succeeds or not depends on the role of employees as the quality of service of employees can decide the quality of the industry itself. In spite of the importance of employees in the food service industry, not many researches have been Performed on the personnel management of the industry, as Koreans traditionally have hold a prejudiced view on the food service industry and it is only a short time since the food business began to be considered as an industry. This thesis aims at research on the factors affecting job satisfaction of the employees by dealing with the importance and characteristics of the role of employees of the food service industry and theoretical background of the job satisfaction. The presumable factors affecting the job satisfaction are divided into several groups ; characteristics of organization, working condition, human relationship, psychological factors, and its reputation in the labour market. Hypotheses and models, where those factors affect the employees, are formed. Statistical methods such as correlation analysis and multiple regression are used in order to verify those hypotheses. Alternatives to improve job satisfaction of employees are suggested based on the analysis. It is expected that there will be more active researches on employees of the food service industry, as this thesis has selected employees of the food service industry as its subjects while subjects of similar researches have been mainly hotel employees so far.
