  • Purpose - This study empirically investigates how the effects of localized knowledge spillovers on technology adoption are conditional on the organizational capabilities of potential adopters. Design/methodology - The empirical model utilized in this study examines how the presence of prior adopters of advanced manufacturing technologies affects a plant's technology adoption decision differently based on its organizational capabilities, measured by plant size and plant status (single-plant firm vs. multi-plant firm). Moreover, this study investigates how the scope of knowledge spillovers from prior adopters, both in terms of geographical and functional proximities, differ for plants with different organizational capabilities. Findings - The main findings of this study are as follows: 1. Although plants with lower organizational capabilities are less likely to adopt advanced technologies, such plants receive greater marginal benefits from knowledge spillovers from prior adopters in their region. 2. Plants with greater organizational capabilities can benefit from knowledge spillovers from a wider set of prior adopters. In other words, while plants with lower organizational capabilities tend to benefit from knowledge spillovers from "similar" and "local" adopters, plants with greater organizational capabilities can also benefit from knowledge spillovers from "not-too-similar" or are geographically distant prior adopters. Originality/value - While existing studies mainly focus on the effects of the various kinds of regional agglomeration, few studies investigate localized knowledge spillovers in technology adoption. Moreover, no prior studies have explored how the effects of knowledge spillovers on technology adoption depend on a plant's organizational capabilities and how the scope of knowledge spillovers differs for plants with different organizational capabilities. This study is the first to empirically investigate this topic.

  • In this study, I focus on analyzing how the effects of implementing ETS are different depending on whether Korean ETS linking with carbon markets in other countries. The global computable general equilibrium (CGE) model built in this study analyzes the chages in the production and trade of industrial sectors according to the international linkage of ETS compared to the reference scenario of emissions reduction targets and implementation of ETS. From the analysis of internatioanl linkage of carbon markets scenarios, Annex B countries-South Korea carbon market linkage with individual ETS in China worse the economic outcomes in South Korea the most. This means South Korea lose the international competitiveness compared to China in this scenario. On the other hand, Annex B-China carbon market linkage with Korean individual ETS implementation reduce the decreases in production and trading. The most effective way is to join a global emissions trading market with China. The results are consistent in most industries of South Korea. These results are caused by that the supply of emission allowance is increased and the price of emissions allowances is dropped by China's participation to the carbon market, which can be understood to reduce the carbon reduction cost for industrial sectors. In addition, it can be also concluded that the determinant of the negative impact of ETS on changes in production and trade is more sensitive to the price of emissions allowances than to the characteristics of production and trade structure.

  • Purpose: China's economy has changed considerably in recent decades. By delivering a comprehensive knowledge of the elements that support successful foreign direct investment (FDI) in China and practical insights for multinational firms operating in this dynamic environment, this research offers a new perspective and sets itself apart from previous studies. Research design, data and methodology: It is necessary to give a thorough overview of the body of information on successful FDI in China, which justifies the adoption of a systematic literature review. The study may use a wide range of studies because of this methodology, which guarantees that inferences have a solid and supported basis in data. Results: The findings in the present study have clarified how China's government policies and regulatory framework affect foreign direct investment (FDI). Previous studies have indicated that regulatory changes can significantly impact FDI. For instance, more foreign direct investment (FDI) has been drawn to liberalized industries such as technology and finance. Conclusions: In conclusion, for foreign direct investment (FDI) to be successful in China, it is essential to consider these four factors: local partnerships and cultural adaptation, market research and entry strategy, regulatory environment and policy support, and risk management and contingency planning.

  • In the last 10 years, AI has made rapid progress, and image classification, in particular, are showing excellent performance based on deep learning. Nevertheless, due to the nature of deep learning represented by a black box, it is difficult to actually use it in critical decision-making situations such as national defense, autonomous driving, medical care, and finance due to the lack of explainability of judgement results. In order to overcome these limitations, in this study, a model description algorithm capable of local interpretation was applied to the inception network-derived AI to analyze what grounds they made when classifying national defense data. Specifically, we conduct a comparative analysis of explainability based on confidence values by performing LIME analysis from the Inception v2_resnet model and verify the similarity between human interpretations and LIME explanations. Furthermore, by comparing the LIME explanation results through the Top1 output results for Inception v3, Inception v2_resnet, and Xception models, we confirm the feasibility of comparing the efficiency and availability of deep learning networks using XAI.

  • This research has incorporated a postal survey from the principals, nurse-charging teachers and nurse-teachers of the fiftyfive elementary, middle and high school in Yang-pyeong county area where its supplementary rate of nurse-teachers is less than adequate. It is to analyse the current status of the school health service in the area and to come out with a plan to improve the school health program through the participations of the health related experts of the local community. The survey was done in the two months of period of April to May of 1994. The result of the survey follows. The student population in the Yang-pyeong county area is 13,998 and the school employee population is 904 which counts for about 19.2% of the whole population of the area. However, the supplementary rate of nurse-teachers is only 10.8% (4 in 55 schools) which is very low in terms of relativity. School health committee only exist in 17% of the whole number of schools in the area and 50 of school health committee answered that their activity do not meet the adequate level. Only 54. 3% of the whole school numbers has included the school health finance in their financial plans and the amount set for the school health finance is about 500,000 wons (100,000-1,600,000 wons). 64.9% of the schools in the Yang-pyeong county area have the permanent nursing room established in the school. But, often than the equipment for a simple physical examinations, their supply of the health related equipments are less than adequate. Particitations of school doctor in the school health service is at only 67.6% which pretty much include only the physical examinations. Nurse-charging teachers consider their utmost important role is to teach health education but, they answered that they spent most of their times and efforts on physical examinations & immunizations. The average number of students visition to the nursing room is 2.5 persons and complains for basic discomfort as headache, concussion, stomachache and indigestion problems and usual pills used are the analgesics and digestives. Physical examination is done in the most schools every year but, 51.4% of nurse-charging teachers answered the physical examination does not really help. About the emergency treatment ability, 75.7% reports that both manpower & equipment are short. The school food services are present in only 8 schools (21.6%) but, 89.2% of nurse-charging teachers answer that there is a definite need of the food service. The survey says that the utmost important environmental health and safety factors are the traffic accidents followed by improper heat system, lighting, the stools and desks that do not consider the student physical status The overall evaluation of school health program reports that there are adequate physical examination, immunization, environmental hygiene, and management of safety but, on the other hand, health education, health councelling & management of nursing room are not managed properly. The principals of the survey pool report shortage of public agency support, lack of understanding of school health, shortage of nursing equipments and school health finance as the barrier factors of school health. The nurse-charging teachers report on the same questions as their less than qualitifying expertise, extraload of work upon the nursing affairs, shortage of nursing equipments & school health finance. The head masters & nurse-charging teachers answered that they are desperate for the meetings of nurse-charging teachers, construction of school health councelling system & training education in order to improve school health and if these are available, they will actively participate in them. After the careful analysis of the survey result, it is apparent that through the relations of the manpowers, establishment of community-oriented school health is definitely in need in rural area where there is low supplementary rate of nurse-teachers and poor school health environment.

  • 이 연구는 감염병 발생자료와 감염병 관리사업 평가지표와의 관계를 실증적으로 분석함으로써 감염병 관리사업의 평가지표의 타당성을 실증적으로 분석함을 목적으로 하였다. 자료는 2004년과 2005년 2개년간의 시군구(보건소) 감염병 환자 발생 수 합계와 2005년도 감염병관리사업 평가지표 등 이었다. 자료의 분석은 빈도분석, 분산분석, 다중회귀분석 등을 이용하였다. 보건소 유형 및 법정감염병 각 군별로 각기 상이한 지표들이 도출되었으며, 각 군로도 특이한 지표 보다는 다양한 분야의 지표들이 혼재되어 있는 양상으로 도출되었다. 특히, 교육실적 등이 발생건수와 유의한 관계를 보이는 경우가 많아 발생건수는 신고건수 즉, 사업의 성과의 결과로 판단하는 것이 더욱 타당할 것으로 판단된다. 전체적인 지표의 개선이 필요하거나 사업의 투입시간 및 추이를 본 후 재평가가 필요할 것으로 생각되며, 각 사업별로 분리하여 특이한 평가지표를 생산할 필요가 있어 보인다. 감염병관리사업의 평가지표 개발은 기초자치단체별 감염병관리사업 종합평가체계를 구축하는데 핵심적인 역할을 할 것이며, 감염병관련업무 표준화를 촉진하고 관련지침을 개정에 활용될 것이며, 향후 보건사업 및 보건의료조직의 계량적인 성과 평가에 활용될 것이다. 또한 시군구 보건소에서 수행한 성공적인 감염병 관리 사업의 사례를 발굴, 제시함으로써 보다 성공적인 감염병관시업의 접근이 가능케 할 것이다.

  • This paper aims at suggesting several ways lo change financial vulnerability and to improve managerial capability of local public hospitals (LPHs) in Korea through the identification of factors affecting profitability. Several findings of the research are as follows: To begin with, LPHs exhibited a statistically significant difference in their profitability from one another, according to tile analyses of their profitable margins from tile general characteristics. It depends on the number of hospitals in the area, the population of the hospital-built area, the number of competing hospitals, the number of staff per 100 beds, the opening of special clinic, the educational function, and the capacity of rooms. However, there was no variable in the managerial characteristics, presenting a significant difference, in contrast with hospitals which have been managed by private companies and made a great amount of profits. Second, according to the analyses of profit differences in behavioral effort-characteristics, a statistically significant difference was revealed upon the basis of the efforts to improve the clinic service, invite special patients, and shorten the period of being hospitalized. Third, the result of analyses about the difference of profitability from medical care and finance is statistically significant in the rate of labor cost, the rate of management cost, bed-occupancy rate, and the period of being hospitalized. Fourth, according to the analyses of the factors influencing the net profit ratio of the entire capital, Adjusted explanatory power(Adjusted $R^2$) was shown up to 65.2%, which is high. To compare the adjusted explanatory power stage by stage, the first stage model applying only two variables such as structural and strategic characteristics exhibited 23.8%, and the second stage model adding financial characteristics showed 51.5%. The explanatory power was much improved up to 65.2% when the third stage model incorporated the outcome of medical care performance. When the return on investment(ROI) was examined by using the multi-variate linear regression analysis at the final model of third stage, it was found that ROI had a positive relationship with the increase rate of patients, labor costs per doctor, and medical care rate of socially protected inpatients. However, it revealed that ROI had a negative relationship with the ratio of labor costs, the number of patients per managerial staff, and occupancy rate of rooms, respectively. The research suggests that in order for LPHs to increase profitability, LPH, should make efforts not only to attract patients to the hospitals without any discrimination of the patients depending on their financial status, but also to develop efficient management methods to reduce labor costs.

  • 대전지역은 정부출연연구소, 대덕특구, KAIST 등 우량한 기술인프라를 보유하고 있음에도 불구하고, 기술창업을 위한 초기투자 및 성장지원 하부구조가 열악한 실정이다. 특히 대전지역의 벤처 자금공급 규모는 다른 혁신 인프라에 비해 상대적으로 부족한 것으로 평가받고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 대전지역 벤처 자금생태계는 어떤 진화 과정을 겪었으며 향후 개선 보완할 점이 무엇인지를 분석함으로써, 벤처창업 활성화에 대한 시사점을 제시하고자 하였다. 첫째, 창업 초기기업에 대한 엔젤투자 활성화 및 민간자금 유입을 견인하는 정책금융의 역할이 강화되어야 한다. 둘째, 투자전문인력의 지역 내 육성을 위해 지역에서 조성한 펀드를 지역 내 기관에 부여하고, 수도권 투자자의 지역 내 정착을 지원하며, 대학에서 투자전문가 양성과정 운영이 필요하다. 셋째, 기존 창업보육센터에 액셀러레이터 기능을 추가하고 신규 액셀러레이터를 육성하기 위해 유관기관 간 협력이 필요하다. 넷째, 지방정부의 역할 확대를 위해 펀드조성 및 공무원의 개방혁신 마인드, 중앙정부와의 효과적 의사소통이 필요하다. 다섯째, 우수인력 유입, 기술탈취 방지, 재도전 환경 개선 등 기본적인 벤처생태계 하부구조를 확충해야 한다. 여섯째, '창업-성장-회수-재도전'의 단계별 창업자금 지원정책을 재정비할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 최근 급변하고 있는 대전지역 벤처창업 자금생태계의 현황을 파악했다는 점에서 의의가 있다. 특히 대전지역 벤처기업의 성장 단계별 부족자금의 형태가 무엇인지를 파악하고, 기존 자금생태계의 효율적 활용 방안을 찾은 점에서 차별성이 있다고 하겠다.

  • 본 연구는 고령화시대를 맞이하여 노인복지 예산에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위해 전라북도를 사례로 선정하고 각종 통계자료를 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과, 군의 경우에는 사회경제적 요인인 노인인구비율과 인구규모가, 정치행정적 요인인 공무원의 수가 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 점증적 요인은 시 군 모두 통계적으로 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났으며, 재정적 요인은 군의 경우, 1인당 세출예산액이 부의 영향을 나타냈다. 종합적인 분석에서 도의 경우에는 정치행정적 요인이, 군의 경우는 재정적 요인이 정의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이를 토대로 노인복지예산 확충을 위한 정책적 시사점을 도출하면 첫째, 노인복지예산의 혁신적인 확충이 이루어져야 하며, 더불어 노인복지예산은 중앙정부나 광역지방자치단체의 의존도가 높으므로 지역간 복지수준의 불균형을 해소하기 위해서 보조금의 지원이 유지되어야 한다. 둘째, 지역적 특성을 고려하여 노인인구의 비율이 높은 군의 경우에는 노인복지의 행정수요를 반영한 예산이 확충되어야 한다. 끝으로, 군지역은 노인문제에 민감하게 대응하는 것으로 추정할 수 있어 공무원의 수가 노인복지예산에 영향을 미친다는 점을 인식해야 한다.
