본 연구는 우리나라 중소제조기업의 수출성과 결정요인을 살펴보았다. 우선 기존 연구를 살펴보고, 수출성과 선행요인으로 기업가정신과 제품차별화 역량을 설정하였다. 또한, 수출성과의 선행요인으로서 제품차별화 역량을 기업가정신과 수출성과의 매개요인으로 분석하였다. 이로써, 기업가정신, 제품차별화 역량 그리고 수출성과의 통합적 모형을 구축하고 그 관계를 살펴보는 것을 연구의 목적으로 하였다. 실증분석에서는 국내 중소제조 수출기업 152개 표본에 PLS(Partial Least Square) 분석을 이용하였다. 분석도구는 SmartPLS2.0을 사용하였다. 분석 결과 중소제조기업 기업가의 위험감수성과 혁신성은 제품차별화 역량과 수출성과에 모두 긍정적 영향을 미쳤다. 제품차별화 역량 역시 중소제조 수출기업의 수출성과에 긍정적 영향을 준다는 점을 확인하였다. 매개효과 분석에서는 제품차별화 역량이 기업가정신 중 혁신성과 수출성과 사이에 유의한 매개효과를 나타냈다. 그러나 위험감수성에는 유의한 매개효과를 나타내지 못했다. 이러한 결과는 중소제조 수출기업에 제품차별화 역량이 필요할수록 적극적으로 혁신성향을 추구해야 한다는 점을 시사한다. 즉, 제품차별화를 시도할 때 위험감수성보다 혁신성향을 강조하는 것이 의미가 있음을 보여준다. 이에 본 연구는 제품차별화 역량의 매개효과를 분석한 점에서 동적역량이나 경쟁우위 관점에서 중소제조기업의 수출성과를 살펴보려는 연구에 이론적 시사점을 가진다. 또한, 중소제조 기업 경영자에게는 위험감수성과 혁신성의 역할이 모두 중요하지만, 낯선 환경의 외국시장 경쟁에 필요한 제품차별화 역량에는 혁신성향의 역할에 더 주목해야 한다는 실무적 시사점을 제시한다.

It is becoming increasingly evident that significant changes in gene expression occur during the course of neuronal differentiation. Thus, it should be possible to gain information about the biochemical events by identifying differentially expressed genes in neuronal differentiation The PC12 cell line is a useful model system to investigate the molecular mechanism underlying neuronal differentiation and has been used extensively for the study of the molecular events that underlie the biological actions of nerve growth factor (NGF). In this study, we report an application of the recently described mRNA differential display method to analyze differential gene expression during neuronal differentiation. Using this technique, we have identified several cDNA tags expressed differentially during neuronal differentiation. Interestingly, one of these clones was cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COX I) gene. The differential expression of COX I gene was confirmed by Northern blot analysis as well as RT-PCR. Southern blot analysis of the genomic DNA of PC12 cells revealed that COX I is a single gene. Induction of the oxidative enzyme might reflect the energy requirement in neuronal differentiation.

The paper describes the improvement on concurrent subspace optimization(CSSO) via automatic differentiation. CSSO is an efficient strategy to coupled multidisciplinary design optimization(MDO), wherein the original design problem is non-hierarchically decomposed into a set of smaller, more tractable subspaces. Key elements in CSSO are consisted of global sensitivity equation, subspace optimization, optimum sensitivity analysis, and coordination optimization problem that require frequent use of 1st order derivatives to obtain design sensitivity information. The current version of CSSO adopts automatic differentiation scheme to provide a robust sensitivity solution. Automatic differentiation has numerical effectiveness over finite difference schemes tat require the perturbed finite step size in design variable. ADIFOR(Automatic Differentiation In FORtran) is employed to evaluate sensitivities in the present work. The use of exact function derivatives facilitates to enhance the numerical accuracy during the iterative design process. The paper discusses how much the automatic differentiation based approach contributes design performance, compared with traditional all-in-one(non-decomposed) and finite difference based approaches.

Purpose - Without question, globalization has presented different opportunities to entrepreneurs seeking to expand their companies in foreign markets. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation, entrepreneurial activity, information internalization, and product differentiation in export oriented firms. As such, entrepreneurial activities are divided into exploitative and exploratory opportunities. These opportunities are crucial in improving firms' performance. Design/methodology - A structural questionnaire was developed using 21 factors/indicators from previous researches. The subjects of this study were recruited using convenience sampling in export SMEs in the Seoul Metropolitan Area. Data were collected through visits or e-mails from the export managers, executives, and CEOs of export SMEs in advance. 321 questionnaires were collected over a period of one month. 316 questionnaires were used in the final analysis. Findings - First, International Entrepreneurial-orientation (IE) has a positive effect on the exploration and exploitation of business opportunities. Second, the exploration and exploitation of business opportunities have a positive impact on information internalization. Third, information internalization has a significant effect on product differentiation and plays a mediating role in seeking opportunities, utilizing opportunities, and differentiating products. Originality/value - This study contributes to the development of academic discussions by explaining existing research gaps. First, there is currently a lack of research focusing precisely on the product differentiation capability of SMEs in manufacturing field in terms of IE. To bridge these gaps, we examined the entrepreneurial factors impact on product differentiation and tries to expand the discussion about the internationalization of SMEs, which were mainly focused on IT companies, and manufacturing companies. Second, there is no intuitive explanation regarding international entrepreneurial activity in terms of exploration and exploitation within existing. In this study, international entrepreneurship activities were classified in terms of exploration and exploitation.

Task scheduling is one of the key issues in improving system performance and optimizing resource management in cloud computing environment. In order to provide appropriate services for heterogeneous users, we propose a novel task scheduling strategy with service differentiation, in which the delay sensitive tasks are assigned to the rapid cloud with high-speed processing, whereas the fault sensitive tasks are assigned to the reliable cloud with service restoration. Considering that a user can receive service from either local SaaS (Software as a Service) servers or public IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) cloud, we establish a hybrid queueing network based system model. With the assumption of Poisson arriving process, we analyze the system model in steady state. Moreover, we derive the performance measures in terms of average response time of the delay sensitive tasks and utilization of VMs (Virtual Machines) in reliable cloud. We provide experimental results to validate the proposed strategy and the system model. Furthermore, we investigate the Nash equilibrium behavior and the social optimization behavior of the delay sensitive tasks. Finally, we carry out an improved intelligent searching algorithm to obtain the optimal arrival rate of total tasks and present a pricing policy for the delay sensitive tasks.
