Because steel frame has own characteristics as easy to work and structural safety, it is being increased application by the trend of construction industry has been more higher and larger in today. However, steel frame works have potential problem, so fundamental solution is needed for preventing serious accidents. Recently, self-supported steel joint for enhancing safety is developed in Korea, but this system has some limitations as convenience of work, retainment of consistent productivity. For complementing this limitations, we developed the new system named Automated wire control machine. This study is performed productivity of steel frame work by new system. The basis data for analysing productivity is collected from field test.

Production of yeast diet has been carried out in batch fermenters under optimum culture conditions. The fermentation of Candida utilis on a $2\%$ complex medium resulted in 1.22 g/L/h productivity and $65\times10^8$ viable cells/ml, and the addition of $15{\mu}M$ zinc to the medium increased both the productivity and the number of viable cells just a little more. In the case of the fermentation of Kluyveromyces fragilis, the highest value of the biomass productivity, 1.94 g/L/h, was obtained on a $2.5\%$ fructose medium with $70\times10^8$ viable cells/ml, and $1\%$ peptone was found to be a growth factor in this fermentation. When $3.5\%$ NaCl was added to the given medium, both the biomass productivity and the number of viable cells decreased significantly in each fermentation, but this may be considered to preserve yeast diet long without osmotic lysis.

Few studies have focused on the impact of R&D outsourcing on technological innovation and productivity despite the increased importance of R&D outsourcing. This study analyzes the productivity effects of investment in R&D outsourcing with a sample of Korean manufacturing industries from 2001 to 2009. The estimation results show a nonlinear U-shaped relationship between productivity and the share of R&D outsourcing capital for total R&D capital. This implies that the cost of R&D outsourcing outweighs its benefits in the early stages of R&D outsourcing. The U-shaped relationship is particularly pronounced in high-technology industries.

For enhancement of cis,cis-muconate productivity from benzoate, catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C12O) which catalyzes the rate-limiting step (catechol conversion to cis,cis-muconate) was cloned and expressed in recombinant Pseudomonas putida BCM114. At higher benzoate concentrations (more than 15 mM), cis,cis-muconate productivity gradually decreased and unconverted catechol was accumulated up to 10 mM in the cae of wild-type P. putida BM014, whereas cis,cis-muconate productivity continuously increased and catechol was completely transformed to cis,cis-muconate for P. putida BCM114. Specific C12O activity of P. putida BCM114 was about three times higher than that of P. putida BM014, and productivity was enhanced more than two times.

The main objective of this study is to determine whether there have been TFP increases in the Korean manufacturing sector due to trade liberalization since the 1990s. Based on the methodology proposed by Pavcnik (2002), which focuses on the channel through which trade liberalization measures enhance overall industrial productivity by triggering the exit of low-productivity firms, this study tests the following two hypotheses: first, the TFP increase in the Korean tradable industry is not higher than that in the non-tradable industry, and second, plants with lower TFP levels did not exit from the tradable industry. Through the rejection of these two hypotheses, it is possible to infer indirectly the effect of trade liberalization on firm productivity rates in Korea since the 1990s. First, this analysis reveals that since the 1990s, the TFP of the tradable sector compared to the non-tradable sector presented a statistically meaningful increase only in the 2000s, when China joined the WTO and trade increased sharply between Korea and China. Secondly, TFP growth in the tradable sector was positively affected by exits, as it was plants with lower TFP levels that ceased to exist.

Background: Job stress and job satisfaction are important factors affecting workforce productivity. This study was carried out to investigate the job stress, job satisfaction, and workforce productivity levels, to examine the effects of job stress and job satisfaction on workforce productivity, and to identify factors associated with productivity decrement among employees of an Iranian petrochemical industry. Methods: In this study, 125 randomly selected employees of an Iranian petrochemical company participated. The data were collected using the demographic questionnaire, Osipow occupational stress questionnaire to investigate the level of job stress, Job Descriptive Index to examine job satisfaction, and Hersey and Goldsmith questionnaire to investigate productivity in the study population. Results: The levels of employees' perceived job stress and job satisfaction were moderate-high and moderate, respectively. Also, their productivity was evaluated as moderate. Although the relationship between job stress and productivity indices was not statistically significant, the positive correlation between job satisfaction and productivity indices was statistically significant. The regression modeling demonstrated that productivity was significantly associated with shift schedule, the second and the third dimensions of job stress (role insufficiency and role ambiguity), and the second dimension of job satisfaction (supervision). Conclusion: Corrective measures are necessary to improve the shift work system. "Role insufficiency" and "role ambiguity" should be improved and supervisor support must be increased to reduce job stress and increase job satisfaction and productivity.

Investments in factory automation do not guarantee productivity enhancement. Much unknown losses may exist in all aspects of production resources such as in material, manpower, machine, etc. Total productivity in korean firms has decreased in recent years. Labor and capital productivity index fall to 0.82 point and 0.73 point, respectively. Investment in FA has Increased rapidly. Tangible fixed assets per capita increased 64% during the past Three years. But, this high-technology oriented systems such as NC, robotics, CAD/CAM, FMS, etc. are often out of keeping with the old production process control, and thus do not result in satisfactory performance. This review paper concerned with these problems and suggests some future directions for production control and development strategy of korean firm's.

본 실험은 혼파초지에서 봄철 1차 이용시기와 1차 이용후 재생기간에 따른 목초의 일당 건물생산량, 경엽분포비율, 일반성분함량 및 세포벽 구성물질 등에 미치는 영향을 구명하고자 1차 이용시기(주구)를 영양생장기(초장 25-30cm), 절간신장기(초장 40~50cm) 및 출수기(초장 60~70cm)로 하고 1차 이용후 재생기간(세구)을 20, 30 및 40일로 하여 1987년도와 1988년도 2개년에 걸쳐 실시하였다. 1차 이용시 일당생산량은 늦게 이용할수록 증가하나 2차 이용후부터는 감소하여 1차 이용을 빨리 하는 것이 좋았으며, 재생기간은 건물생산량 측면에서 20일은 너무 짧고 40일은 너무 길어 30일이 가장 유리하였다. 목초 경엽분포비율은 1차 이용을 일찍 할수록, 1차 이용후 재생기간을 짧게 할수록 잎의 비율은 증가하고 줄기의 비율은 감소하여 사료가치는 증진되었다. 목장의 사료가치(일반성분함량과 제포벽구성물질)도 1차 이용을 영양생장기로 일찍 할수록, 1차 이용후 재생기간을 짧게 할수록 증가하였다. 조사자질생산량은 1차이용을 늦게 할수록 증가되었으나 2차 이용시부터는 상살되었으며, 재생기간 30일에서 조사자질생산량은 가장 많았다. 이상의 결과로서 초지에서 목초의 양호한 재생, 건물생산성, 수절생산성 및 사료가치 등을 고려해볼 때 봄철 1차 이용은 가급적 일찍하는 것이, 그리고 1차 이용후 재생기간은 1차 이용시기에 관계 없이 30일 정도로 하는 것이 가장 바람직하다고 생각된다.

The information and communication technology (ICT) value creation process is inherently unobservable. In addition to the direct effect of ICT on productivity, some information or knowledge can create value through other knowledge activities. In this paper, we study the impact of ICT on productivity through R&D. We tested the mediating effect of R&D between ICT and productivity using panel data from 47 US industries from 1987 to 2013 from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The results show that R&D partially mediates ICT and productivity. That is, ICT directly increases productivity, and some of its effects can be realized through R&D. Recipients who acquire knowledge through ICT have to interpret codified ideas and apply them to practice. The increased absorptive capacity that can be developed through R&D improves interpretation ability, allowing employees to share more complex ideas. Thus, ICT helps people to effectively communicate, but some information and knowledge can be realized and applied through R&D knowledge activities. This is the first study empirically examining the process of ICT value creation through R&D. It also provides practical guidelines for knowledge management, such as making decisions about ICT and R&D investments that are better done concurrently rather than individually to maximize their impact on productivity.
