In this paper, we propose matrix analysis methods for analyzing national R&D information creation. In order to analyze R&D information creation at national level, it is necessary to analyze whether information is created systematically for each technical category and for each information type. In this paper, ‘uniformity’and ‘concentration’criterions are proposed to check national R&D information creation and we provide formulas to measure the criterions. The criterions are applied to domestic information creation in information and communication domain to show the utilization of the proposed method.

This paper presents the user needs analysis and information visualization for the development of a semantic-based national R&D information navigation service in information service planning phase, which converges and fuses NDSL databases and NTIS databases. To investigate and analyze the user needs for improving usability, we make an improvement plan for R&D information services via a survey targeted at 30 persons, and on-site interviews targeted at 12 persons, almost of who are researchers in industries, universities and government-funded institutes. To design new information visualization service, we propose an interactive national R&D information visualization service, which is provided in navigation type, and prescribe persona and screen prototyping according to the user needs analysis. We design the national R&D information convergence/fusion architecture based on the NDSL databases, including 345,411 academic articles, 620,555 co-authors and 49,958 reports and NTIS databases including 187,466 national R&D projects. We expect that the national R&D information convergence/fusion architecture contributes to R&D information convergence/fusion as a leading model/standard and the interactive navigation-typed information visualization service strengthens usability continuously.

According to the current legislation in Korea, some of national R&D reports cannot be disclosed or registered, when they need external security or the interested parties require them to be classified for a certain period of time. Therefore, there are some effects on the collection and circulation of information about R&D reports. Since those closed national R&D reports are the important outcomes from national R&D projects, they should be properly open, circulated and used by the public, when the reasons for closing those reports are removed. This study examines the present condition of the closure system of national R&D reports, and proposes a plan for collecting and utilizing the closed national R&D reports at the national level.

Reference linking based on a identification system is being widely used both domestically and overseas. National R&D information contains all information related to the R&D programs such as the output and equipment information resulting from the participant and project information. The reference linking service enables the user to freely look up output of a certain program, participant of a project, equipment information from the project or participant and all other information that originates from a R&D project without having to search for it. The reference linking service in the area of national R&D will enable the linking of heterogeneous information produced at different sources.

A need for sharing the R&D information at a national level regardless of the ministry in charge of it is being aroused. However, this information is being managed by different institutes under different ministries without a standard identifier which makes it difficult to manage the information such as to look up duplicate projects. A URN-based identifier is required for the integrated management and utilization of the national R&D information. In this paper, the concept of the identification metadata for applying the identification system and the status of the information management by each institute will be the subject for discussion. Based on this, the elements required for issuing a unique identification number and identifier to the national R&D projects will be suggested in this paper.

Because of the difficulties on budget estimation of National R&D projects, it is expected that the errors of decision making can be reduced if the information on project performance and its evaluation result is provided to the decision stakeholders in a timely manner, as a reference. In reality, however, the result of project evaluation is not utilized in its own purpose. One reason is that the information on evaluation result and budget is not shared at the right time. The other is that the interconnection between systems to support those information is not realized yet. Therefore, the current status of National R&D projects is analyzed in terms of before and after the reign of current government. In particular, this paper is focused on the improvement through the procedural and systematic approaches and attempted to suggest the enhanced process for the seamless interconnection between National R&D performance evaluation and budget information.

There is a growing interest in convergence. National R & D is also providing various policies and institutional support to promote convergence research. Convergence research, however, does not clearly specify its characteristics at the academic and government levels. This research proceeds with the process of collecting, refining, analyzing, modeling, verifying and visualizing national R & D data through the National Science and Technology Information Service (NTIS). The method is to derive the convergence research characteristics and to derive through text mining, focusing on the unstructured information of national R & D project data. The study confirmed that there was a difference in perception between the definition of converged research and the research site. In order to improve this, the research suggested that convergence among research subjects, collaboration among research topics reflecting various backgrounds and characteristics of researchers, and analysis of characteristics of convergence research using information were suggested in the process of establishing convergence policy.

The information management system for the national R&D reports on the level of each government department have been operated in order to have special affiliated organizations collect detailed information, construct databases for R&D reports, and operate their information system; thus, the current classification system for the R&D reports on the governmental level is insufficient. Also, each department requires to prepare a standardized electronic original text service system since mutually different electronic original text services have been provided. therefore, this paper sets up the following research goals and detailed research contents. The goals of this study are to establish methods to standardize the forms of national R&D reports and suggest the framework for XML-based national R&D reports services by analyzing the problems in the forms of previous national R&D reports services. As detailed research contents, first, Identify the current R&D electronic original reports services by each government department. Second, this paper analyzed primary overseas science technology information service systems related with national research and development reports and related database schemata. this paper proposed the XML-based national R&D reports service framework through analyzing the problems in the framework of the existing national R&D reports service system and also established and suggested the methods to provide database schema design and report portal services. Lastly, it is expected that this paper will have academic contribution to enhancing R&D investment efficiency by utilizing collaboratively the information and resources related with national R&D through establishing the general information management system for national-dimension R&D reports and also managing science technology information efficiently and developing a user-centered integrated information system.

The recent rise in the unstructured data generated by social media has resulted in an increasing need to collect, store, search, analyze, and visualize it. These data cannot be managed effectively by using traditional data analysis methodologies because of their vast volume and unstructured nature. Therefore, many attempts are being made to analyze these unstructured data (e.g., text files and log files) by using commercial and noncommercial analytical tools. Especially, the attempt to discover meaningful knowledge by using text mining is being made in business and other areas such as politics, economics, and cultural studies. For instance, several studies have examined pending national issues by analyzing large volumes of texts on various social issues. However, it is difficult to create satisfactory information services that can identify R&D documents on specific national issues from among the various R&D resources. In other words, although users specify some words related to pending national issues as search keywords, they usually fail to retrieve the R&D information they are looking for. This is usually because of the discrepancy between the terms defining pending national issues and the corresponding terms used in R&D documents. We need a mediating logic to overcome this discrep 'ancy so that we can identify and package appropriate R&D information on specific pending national issues. In this paper, we use association analysis and social network analysis to devise a mediator for bridging the gap between the keywords defining pending national issues and those used in R&D documents. Further, we propose a methodology for packaging R&D information services for pending national issues by using the devised mediator. Finally, in order to evaluate the practical applicability of the proposed methodology, we apply it to the NTIS(National Science & Technology Information Service) system, and summarize the results in the case study section.
