This study determines whether or not firms can achieve high productivity growth through external technology acquisition. It also identifies the key factors affecting adopting firms' productivity growth by employing the Malmquist productivity index (MPI) methodology, which features computational ease, low data dependency, and decomposition of productivity growth into technical efficiency change and technical change. Results showed that the effects of productivity growth arising from technology transfer became stronger over time. Moreover, patent transfer guaranteed firms' productivity growth, but no evidence was found that factors such as age and size could increase productivity. Finally, cultural similarity could be another factor conditioning the effectiveness of technology transfer in the productivity of adopting firms.

Using the Malmquist productivity index, this paper compares the productivity of Korean manufacturing industries from 1999 to 2006. The malmquist productivity index has more advantages than previous methods such as solow model, endogenous growth theory. The malmquist productivity index can be decomposed productivity into two parts. The first part is an index of the technical efficiency change. This index has high value when the elements of production is used more efficiently. The second part is an index of technical change. This index has high value if the advent of new technology and process innovation occur.

This study analyzed the changes in productivity growth of 291 regional fisheries cooperatives area from 2001 to 2010 selected as target. The productivity growth analysis of operating offices calculates Global-Malmquist productivity index. Input variables are number of the persons and the nettable area, output variables are deposit, loans and earnings. To improve the homogeneity of industry, the operating conditions were considered. Global Malmquist index of Operating offices was reduced between 2001~2010. The cause of increase and decrease of productivity are divided by efficiency change(EC) and best-practice change(BPC). Operating offices with increased productivity existed between 2001~2002 and between 2002~2003 and between 2006~2007. There were operating offices with increased productivity by EC. Global Malmquist index of Operating offices with locations was highest relatively in metropolitan. Operating offices with increased productivity existed between 2003~2004 and between 2007~2008 and between 2008~2009 in all locations. There were operating offices with decreased productivity by BPC.

Vietnam is conducting an export-led growth model and labour-intensive industries contributing majorly to the total export value. In the context of Industry 4.0, the labour-based industries are significantly affected; hence, enhancing productivity is the key measure to maintain these industries. The garment industry contributes significantly to the total export value of Vietnam. Based on meta-frontier framework, the approach of data envelopment analysis is used to measure technical efficiency of Vietnamese garment firms and the global Malmquist TFP index is utilised to identify productivity change and its components including efficiency, technology and technical gaps between different groups of firms. The data of Vietnamese garment firms from 2013 to 2018 collected from the Vietnam General Statistic Office is used in this study. The results show that: (i) The total factor productivity of Vietnamese garment firms growth, technical progress is the main contributor; (ii) The private garment sector is the leading group; (iii) There is a large technological gap among Vietnamese garment sectors. The private and FDI garment firms have experienced a growth in all components of total factor productivity change. Meanwhile, technological progress change is the main reason to constrain the productivity growth of state-owned garment firms.

This paper analyses the efficiency and productivity of R&D system across time (1991${\sim}$2000) and 16 OECD countries using multi-output and multi-input non-parametric frontier methods such as DEA (data envelopement analysis) and Malmquist productivity indexes. Malmquist productivity indexes are decomposed into two components measures, namely technical change and efficiency change. To calculate R&D efficiency and productivity, we used R&D stock and the number or researchers as R&D input proxies and the number of adjusted SCI papers and U.S. patent applications as R&D output proxies. Empirical result shows that Switzerland, Canada, U.S., Australia's R&D efficiencies are the highest and Korea's R&D productivity growth is the highest in the sample for the period. Technical efficiency growth was a more important source of productivity growth than technological innovation.

본 논문에서는 국내 제조업을 대상으로 통합개념의 '비가격'의 신재생에너지 투입에 대한 기업의 최적화 행태를 분석하기 위하여 투입요소의 가격에 대한 정보없이 추정이 가능한 투입물거리함수를 추정한다. 신재생에너지의 연도별 암묵 (shadow) 가격을 도출하여 변화 패턴을 근거로 향후 신재생에너지의 잠재가격을 예측한다. 신재생에너지와 화석에너지 간 대체 가능성에 대한 측정 등 잠재 생산성에 영향을 줄 수 있는 제반 환경을 평가하고, 기술변화와 기술 효율성 변화의 Malmquist 생산성 지수를 계측하여 신재생에너지 투입의 생산성 지수에 대한 파급효과 여부 및 크기를 분석한다. 분석 결과, 1992-2012년 기간 동안 신재생에너지의 암묵가격은 매년 평균 17%씩 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 신재생에너지와 비재생에너지는 대체가능성이 상호 낮은 것으로 측정되었다. 신재생에너지 투입량을 1% 증가시키면 산업 생산성은 연평균 약 0.04% 감소하는 것으로 나타났다.

최근 대량생산에 기초한 세계 경제의 패러다임이 공급과잉과 개도국 위주의 지나친 양적 경쟁으로 인한 폐해로 인하여 환경악화와 각국간 갈등구조 심화 등 새로운 문제로 분출되면서 이와 같은 외부효과의 내재화와 생산 과정의 투명성, 예측가능성의 글로벌 표준에 입각한 지속가능 경쟁체제에 대한 패러다임이 급속히 확산되고 있다. 특히 제2차 G20정상회의를 계기로 전세계적인 녹색성장을 새로운 패러다임으로 제시한 한국경제에 있어 환경문제는 매우 심각하며, 그 어느 분야보다 친환경적인 녹색생산성에 입각한 지속가능한 국제경쟁력의 강화가 시급한 상황이라 할 것이다. 선진국으로의 진입을 목전에 둔 상황에서 기존의 투입대비 산출량의 극대화를 위한 생산성 향상전략은 그 내재적인 한계가 심각한 상황에 이르고 있기 때문이다. 이를 극복하여 지속가능한 국가경쟁력을 강화하기 위한 핵심적인 의제는 바로 녹색성장을 위한 효율성, 즉 녹색생산성에서 비롯된다고 할 것이다. 이를 위해 기존의 전통적 생산성개념에 환경오염변수를 고려한 방향적 거리함수(directional distance function)와 Malmquist 지수 (ML지수)가 개발되면서 다양한 논의가 진행되었고, 본 연구는 그 가운데에서도 가장 최근에 새롭게 제시된 연구방법론적 특성과 경영환경의 특성을 감안한 총체적 ML지수 (Global Malmquist-Luenberger Index, GML) 연구 모형을 소개하여 환경 보호와 경제개발을 조화롭게 추진하기 위한 녹색생산성의 실질적인 효과를 분석하기 위한 종합적이고도 체계적인 패러다임을 제시하고자 한다.

This study has analyzed the efficiency of 10 leading global shipping companies listed in the New York Stock Exchange from2010 to 2014 in order to find the changes of the productivity of shipping industry. The paper observed the Malmquist Productivity Index by using Efficiency and Productivity Analysis System Version 1.0. The data used in this study is the Guggenheim Shipping ETF mainly including the companies of shipping, management, and shipbuilding areas. The results from this statistical analysis indicate that the 10 selected companies have experienced a severely negative growth in 2010. Nevertheless, these companies have accomplished a significant growth of productivity. In particular, the energy transport companies operating Tanker and LNG ships carried out remarkable growth. The reason why the productivity of liner shipping companies did not show the improvement of productivity for five years was attributed to the fact that the P3(Project 3) or M2(Maersk-MSC) including Maersk, MSC, and CMA-CGM were excluded in this research because of the difficulty of attaining reliable source data. The method of this study could be extended to Korean shipping corporations and other global airlines to investigate a changes of certain industries.

Objectives : This study analyzed the managerial efficiency of hospitals and identified the productivity trends for three years. Methods : Data were collected from 44 tertiary hospitals and 32 university hospitals from 2009 to 2011. Efficiency scores and productivity trends were evaluated with the DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) method. The input variables were the numbers of beds, doctors, nurses, and health personnel, and the medical costs. The output variables were the numbers of outpatients, and inpatients, and the medical revenues. Along with the traditional input-oriented DEA analysis, the Malmquist Productivity Index(MPI) was calculated. Results : First, the mean values of the study variables showed gradual increases in all the variables for all the study years. Second, technical efficiency scores varied depending on the study year. Third, MPI decreased from 2009 to 2010 (MPI=0.986), and then increased from 2010 to 2011(MPI=1.011). The contributions of the Efficiency Change Index and Technical Change Index on the MPI varied depending on the study year. Conclusions : This study provides information to hospital managers about changes in hospital performances. External environments had more influence on hospital performances, and hospital managers will need to manage these influences from factors surrounding the hospitals.

This paper investigates the productivity growth in Korean railway transport. The productivity growth is calculated by a process of measuring of pure efficiency change index(PECI), scale efficiency change index(SECI), and technical change index(TCI), using Data envelopment analysis (DEA) method. The data cover the period 1999$\sim$2006; 1999$\sim$2003 are the pre-structural reform years and the post-structural reform years are 2004$\sim$2006. The framework for the analysis is Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) of the to investigate the impacts of structural reform on productivity growth, respectively. The inputs considered are the length of operating line, the number of staff, the number of coach and wagon, and the outputs are the trains movement of passenger and freight, and the traffic of passenger and freight. Results indicate that Korean railway experienced a annual productivity growth of approx. 3% after the structural reform.
