최근 다양한 기술분야에서 가속화되고 있는 기술융합은 서로 다른 기술간 지식의 교환을 통해 새로운 기술을 발견하고 이를 기존 기술 영역에 활용함으로써 이루어진다. 특히 지식집약적 기술인 정보통신기술의 경우 기술융합이 활발하게 이루어지고 있으나, 정보통신기술의 지식 확산 경로를 살펴보기 위한 데이터의 부족으로 현재까지 관련 연구가 부족한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한국의 2006년부터 2013년까지 출원된 특허 데이터와 그들의 선행특허들간의 인용관계에 대한 데이터베이스를 구축하고, 이를 통해 특허 인용 네트워크, 기술 인용 네트워크, 출원인 인용 네트워크를 도출함으로써 기술의 지식 확산 경로에 대한 다양한 분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 기술간 지식 인용에 있어 정보통신기술이 주요한 역할을 수행함을 확인하였으며, 기술인용이 빈번하게 이루어지는 기술관계일수록, 정보통신기술간의 인용일수록 기술 인용에 소요되는 기간이 짧아짐을 확인하였다. 둘째, 대부분 정보통신기술은 다른 정보통신기술 혹은 물리학과 전기분야 기술과의 인용 피인용 관계가 강한 반면, 기본적 전기소자(H01)의 경우, 정보통신기술 이외의 기술과 다양한 인용 피인용 관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 국내법인과 국내자연인간의 상호 기술확산이 강하게 이루어지는 것으로 나타났으며, 국내법인의 특허는 타출원인에 의해 활발히 인용되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 현재 한국의 기술지식 확산경로에 대한 고찰이 가능할 뿐만 아니라, 기술의 성과 측정에서도 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In the knowledge-based economy, technological capability is critical for the survival and growth of firms. Technological capability differs across firms depending on the structural and environmental conditions. In nature, the evaluation of technological capability is an intractable task and thus previous studies often employ such proxy measures as patent, productivity, or profitability. In this research, we define technological capability as a combination of the above three measures and investigate, by using the multi-variate statistical analysis, the characteristics of technological capability of electronics/IT firms of Korea. We first propose a taxonomy in which firms are classified into four clusters based on the differences in the nature of technological capability. Then, across clusters, we comparatively analyze the relationship between technological capability and structural/environmental factors of firms. Finally, the implications of empirical findings will be discussed. This study is a small-scale, descriptive one but will be extended and elaborated by augmenting the database and/or incorporating more variables.

Deep sea water exists at depths of over 200m under the sea. As no sunlight reaches it, photosynthesis does not take place within it, and it contains no organic matter. In addition, its temperature is maintained at a stable low level throughout the year, so it does not get mixed with the sea water on the surface. It contains a large amount of nutritious salts, whose cleanness is maintained. It is a marine resource that has matured for a long period of time. Research into deep sea water, which started in the 1970s, has been made around the whole world, including the USA and Japan. In Korea, research has been active in this area since 2000. As there has been a good amount of research into industrial applications for deep sea water, since 1993, patents for the relevant technologies have been applied. This paper intends to provide a resource to researchers of deep sea water, by summarizing of all domestic deep sea water-related patents applied with Korean Intellectual Property Office from 1993 to 2008. This research was conducted using a computer and KIPRIS Database owned by the Korea Institute of Patent Information. 'Deep sea water' was used as the search keyword. A total of 222 Korean patents relating to deep sea water have been registered on the basis of IPC. Of these, 126 patents relate to the manufacturing and the treatment of foods, foodstuffs, or non-alcoholic beverages(A23L), while 50 patents relate to the production for medical, dental, or cosmetic purposes(A61K). 38 patents relate to water purification, treatment of wastewater, sewage and sludge (C02F), while 8 patents relate to fishery and farming(A01K). In summary, it was found that studies for the practical use of deep sea water have been conducted in relation to the manufacturing and the treatment of foods, foodstuffs, beverages, and cosmetics.

Objectives : This study aims to investigate the current situation of domestic patents in Korea on natural products and to provide directions for developing and applying herbal medicinal products by in-depth analyses. Methods : Combinations of words, such as "A61K" or "A61P", "herb" or "Korean medicinal herb" or "Korean medicine" or "traditional" or "natural" or "$botanic^*$" or "China", and "medicine" or "treatment" or "prevention" or "improvement", were used to search patents in the World Intellectual Property Service (WIPS) database. Three methods were applied to analyze natural products patents. First, the number of patent registrations was sorted by year. Second, the assignees were analyzed by count and country of origin. Finally, cluster map analysis was conducted to explore frequently emerging words in natural products and the relationship amongst those words to treat corresponding diseases/technologies. Results : Results showed that, first, the total number of patents had been increasing. Among the patents, 76.4% were registered by domestic institutes/companies, and 23.6% by foreign institutes/companies. Second, USA, Japan, and China possess a considerable number of Korean patents and, therefore, domestic institutes/companies can seek joint technological development opportunities with their counterparts from those countries in the future. Finally, a total of four clusters were identified by cluster map analysis. Each of the clusters includes natural products related to diseases involving skin, aging, and blood sugar, as well as adult diseases. Conclusions : In this study, natural products patents registered in the Korean Intellectual Property Office were analyzed. The analyses results showed the kinds of natural products that had been employed for the treatment of certain diseases. However, natural products included in existing patents were minimal given that 4,174 species of indigenous plants are found in Korea. Thus, Korean institutes/companies should utilize unexplored plants to develop more value-added drugs.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the technology trend on developing helmets based on the analysis of Korean, US, European and PCT patents. Background: The usage of the personal protective equipment such as the safety helmet would be essential for preventing injuries and reducing the severity of injuries depending on the type of activity and the exposed environment. Method: Database of WIPSON was used for searching the patents. The objects were the Korean, US, European and PCT patents registered or opened from January 2011 to December 2014. The keyword to investigate was helmet, and International Patent Classification (IPC) was used for investigating the technology trend of the patents. Results: The cases of US patents annually increased, but the cases of European patents decreased. US patents belonged to all sections but Korean and European patents and PCT patents did not. The largest number of IPC, to which four areas' patents belonged, was 'Headwear' and the second largest one was 'Hygiene'. In the subgroup level, the most common largest subgroups were 'Parts, details or accessories of helmets' and 'Masks, shields, or hoods for welders'. Korean patents had the lowest ratio of single_IPC at 11%, but the ratios of single_IPC for US and European patents were 52%, respectively. 'Human necessities', 'Mechanical engineering', 'Physics', and 'Electricity' were used as a single_IPC, but lower levels of 'Performing operations', 'Chemistry', 'Textiles' and 'Fixed constructions' were used as multi_IPC. Most main applicants had patents which belonged to 'Human necessities'. Conclusion: The cases of US patents annually increased unlike others. The common technologies for creating the helmet were Parts of helmets under Headwear and Shields for welders under Hygiene. Many Korean patents tended to be categorized as multi_IPC, different from others. Application: To know the technological characteristic of patents would be helpful to initial stage developers.

A technical analysis was conducted to predict the development trends for heat pump system. This study was based on submitted patents from 1983 to 2002 in Korea, USA, and Japan. The total number of raw data from the registered database was 19,261 and the obtained data to be analyzed through the filtering process was 5,143. Japan's technical development for the heat pump system was more dominant than the other countries. Approximately $54\%$ of the total patents related with the heat pump system was registered by Japan. The number of patents for the heat pump system registered by Korea was very low in 1980's, but it increased rapidly in 1990's. As a result, the number of patents applied by Korea was $21\%$ of all patents. When the patent was categorized into compression, absorption/ad-sorption, and chemical type, the technology of compression type made up over $80\%$ in each country. Approximately $93\%$ of the patents surveyed in this study was developed for air or water source heat pumps because of easy applications compared with other heat sources. The $89\%$ of all patents was applied by companies when applicants were divided into three groups of company, individual, and the others (national institute, university, and so on).

본 논문은 대학의 연구활동을 특허라는 창을 통하여 들여다보고자 하였다. 특허인용정보가 있는 미국 특허를 이용하여 우리나라의 대학 특허를 기업 특허와 대비시켜 대학 특허의 특성을 분석하였다. 일반적으로 기업 특허와 대학 특허는 전자는 전유성(appropriability) 측면에서 그리고 후자는 기초성(basicness) 측면에서 차이가 있는 것으로 본다. 그런데 기초성 측면에서 우리나라 대학 특허는 기업 특허와 크게 두드러진 차이를 보이지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 다음으로 특허인용함수모형을 이용하여 특허의 질 또는 수준을 기업과 대학 사이에 비교해 보았다. 기업 특허는 자체인용이 상당수 포함되어 있는데, 이를 감안하면 전방인용에 있어서는 대학 특허와 기업 특허는 큰 차이를 보이지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 자체인용 비중이 높을수록 특허의 전유성 정도가 높은 경향이 있다는 선행연구를 상기하면, 기업 특허의 전유성 정도가 높게 나오는 것을 확인할 수도 있었다. 미국과 유럽을 대상으로 한 선행연구에서는 대학 특허가 대체로 기업 특허와 비교하여 인용빈도 측면에서 뒤지지 않는 것으로 분석되고 있다. 외국의 대학 특허 분석결과와 본 논문의 우리나라 대학 특허 분석결과를 대비시키면, 우리나라 대학 특허는 전반적인 수준이나 영향력 측면에서는 기업 특허에 미치지 못하며, 이는 우리나라대학의 특허활동이 최근에야 활성화된 데 기인한 것으로 추론된다. 이러한 분석 결과는 향후 대학의 연구수준을 제고하기 위한 노력을 보다 체계화해야 한다는 것을 시사하며, 최근 진행되고 있는 정부의 기초연구 정책방향 전환이나 대학 내의 자체적인 개혁 움직임을 간접적으로 지지한다. 정부의 정책 전환과 함께 학내의 개선 노력이 합치되면 향후 우리나라 대학의 특허인용도 및 영향력이 훨씬 높아지게 될 것으로 기대할 수 있다.

The database for the oriental medicine had been existed in documentation in past times and it has been developed to the database type for random accesses in the information society. However, the aspects of the database are not so diversified and the database for the bio herbal material exists in widened type dictionary style. It is a situation that the database which handles the in-depth raw herbal medicines is not sufficient in its quantity and quality. Korean wild grape is a deciduous plant categorized into the Vitaceae and it was found experimentally that it has various medical effects. It is one of the medical materials with higher potentiality of academic study and commercialization recently because it has a bigger possibility to be applied into diverse industrial fields including the medical product for health, food and beauty. We constituted the cooperative system among the Muju cluster business group for Korean mountain wild grapes, Physiology Laboratory in Kyung Hee University Oriental Medicine and Medical Classics Laboratory in Kyung Hee University Oriental Medicine with a view to focusing on such potentiality and a database for Korean wild grapes was made a touchstone for establishing the in-depth database for the single bio medical materials. First of all, the literatures based on the North East Asia in ancient times had been categorized into the classical literature (Korean literature published by government organization, Korean classical literature, Chinese classical literature and classical literature fro Korean and Chinese oriental medicine) and modern literature (Modern literature for oriental medicine, modern literature for domestic and foreign herbal medicine) to cover the eastern and western research records and writings related to Korean wild grapes and the text-mining work has been performed through the cooperation system with the Medical Classics Laboratory in Kyung Hee University Oriental Medicine. First of all, the data for the experiment and theory for Korean wild grape were collected for the Medline database controlled by the Parliament Library of USA to arrange the domestic and foreign theses with topic for Korean wild grapes and the network hyperlink function and down load function were mounted for self-thesis searching function and active view based on the collected data. The thesis searching function provides various auxiliary functions and the searching is available according to the diverse searching/queries such as the name of sub species of Korean wild grape, the logical intersection index for the active ingredients, efficacy and elements. It was constituted for the researchers who design the Korean wild grape study to design of easier experiment. In addition, the data related to the patents for Korean wild grape which were collected from European Patent Office in response to the commercialization possibility and the system available for searching and view was established in the same viewpoint. Perl was used for the query programming and MS-SQL for database establishment and management in the designing of this database. Currently, the data is available for free use and the address is as follows. http://163.180.41.43:8011/index.html
