This study examines the impact of the Internet on the organizational innovation. With the introduction of digital technology, the entire organizational process and structure is now being restructured. The purpose of this study is to develop a framework to help classify the organizational innovations and understand organizational innovation processes. This study suggests that the wide diffusion of digital technology has affected the modularization of the organizational routines and processes. The modularization of knowledge and organization give rise to a new organizational architecture, a modular architecture. In the Fordist regime, the characteristics of organizations were depicted as vertically integrated and tightly coupled system. The organizational processes and routines were tightly linked and integrated. However, the diffusion of Internet, which has a tendency to disassemble this tightly coupled system, has resulted in the emergence of loosely coupled and vertically disintegrated system. Eventually the modular architectures are emerging as a new organizational paradigm in the post-Fordist regime. In this study, the modes of organizational innovation is classified as follows. If the organizational innovation enhances both existing organizational components and tile tightly coupled architecture, it is incremental innovation (Mode 1): if it destroys both existing components and the tightly coupled architecture, it is radical innovation (Mode 4): however if only the tightly coupled architecture is transformed into the modular architecture and the codification of organizational component is enhanced, the innovation is architectural (Mode 3). The last one is component innovation (Mode 2), in which existing organizational components are destroyed but tightly coupled architecture is enhanced. It is argued that the organizational innovation process follows Mode I$\longrightarrow$ Mode II $\longrightarrow$ Mode III $\longrightarrow$ Mode IV in order.

Research underlined that Small and Medium Enterprises' performance is enhanced by different types of innovation capabilities. This research tends to present a comprehensive model to explain the relationship between innovation capabilities and SMEs' financial and operational performance. Specifically, this study tends to achieve three objectives: explores the set of product, process, organizational and marketing innovation capabilities possessed by owners/managers of SMEs and their impact on Chinese manufacturing SMEs' operational and financial performance dimensions, identify the determinants of innovation capabilities, and determine the contextual factors that moderate innovation capabilities and SMEs' performance. This research employed a qualitative research method using in-depth interviews with eight owners/managers of Chinese manufacturing SMEs. Research findings revealed that product and marketing innovation capabilities have a significant impact on SMEs' financial performance while process and organizational innovation capabilities positively influence SMEs' operational performance. The major determinants of innovation capabilities involved availability of sufficient organizational resources, entrepreneurial orientation, knowledge development and external networks. The contextual moderating factors on the relationship between innovation capabilities and SMEs' performance involved internal factors which are: SME size, SMEs' owner/manager work experience, entrepreneurial mindset; and external factors: market dynamism and cooperation strategies. This paper ends by drawing some concluding remarks and proposing future research avenues.

This article introduces the five functions of the national innovation system (NIS). As the national innovation system is a kind of social systems in the national level, the five generic functions of open system-production boundary spanning, maintenance, adaptation management functions-are applied to the NIS. The production function is the primary process, which produces innovative products and services of the NIS. The boundary spanning function is the function of procuring the input and disposing the innovation output or aiding in these process. Experienced R&D human resources, R&D funds, technology etc. belong to the input of the NIS. The maintenance function is responsible for the smooth operation and upkeep of the system in terms of various conditions. The adaptive function is to help the system change and adapt, scan the environment for problems, opportunities, and technological developments. It faces outward for the survival of the system from the long-term view. The management function carries out planning and controlling the overall activities for the other four functions in order to run the system. Finally it discuses implications for the diagnosis and the decision making process of S&T policy.

The Office of Science and Technology Innovation (OSTI) was created by a different method of organizational change from that of precedent administrative reforms. According to results of the new method, the OSTI case can be widely applied to other ministries as an alternative model for governmental reform. The theory part introduced two approaches of organizational reform, namely structural approach which focuses on the level of hierarchial authority and process approach which emphasizes the flow of information/expertise in organizational operation. It also discussed various ways of understanding for S&T policy coordination. After this, the paper reviewed details of the OSTI reform with special reference to implications for the mode of S&T policy coordination. It concludes that the OSTI may offer an opportunity to strengthen the coordination mechanism of the process approach.

글로벌 경제전반에 서비스가 미치는 영향이 증가하면서, 서비스를 통해 가치를 창출하는 혁신에 대한 새로운 관점이 요구되고 있다. 최근 서비스 혁신은 서비스와 관련된 모든 창조적인 활동으로 이해되고 있으며, 기업이 아닌 고객주도하에서 서비스의 품질을 향상시키는데 중점을 두고 있다. 이는 고객의 역할이 서비스 거래만을 주도하는 수동적인 행위자에서 서비스 관련 활동에 적극적으로 참여하는 능동적인 행위자로 변화함에 따라, 지식서비스 기업이 고객과 긴밀한 관계를 가질 수 있는 다양한 상호작용 활동을 수행할 때 혁신을 이끌 수 있음을 의미한다. 이를 토대로 본 연구에서는 서비스 혁신에 관한 단순한 개념적 수준의 연구에서 벗어나, 서비스 혁신에 영향을 미치는 서비스 기업과 고객기업 간의 상호작용성과 이들 간에 공유되는 지식유형에 대해 알아보고자 하였다. 서비스 기업과 고객기업이 이루는 협업 활동을 의미하는 상호작용성은 세 가지 활동, 지식서비스 표준화, 양방향 학습 그리고 혁신 참여로, 서비스 혁신은 세 가지 서비스 제품 혁신, 프로세스 혁신, 그리고 조직혁신으로 구분하였다. 그 결과, 다양한 상호작용 활동들이 모두 세 가지 유형의 서비스 혁신에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 더 나아가 서비스 기업과 고객이 암묵지 형태의 지식을 공유할 때, 혁신을 더 높일 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 기존과 다른 관점에서 서비스 혁신을 이해하는데 도움을 주고, 지식서비스 기업이 혁신을 이루기 위한 실질적인 방안을 제시하였다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

Material is enabling technology that creates the product performance and the service of most industrial sectors and fields of technology. However, compared to the other fields such as IT, BT, and NT etc., relatively little attention has been paid to the research on strategy and innovation of materials technology. This bias should have resulted in the misfit of policy and less than enough investment in materials innovation. This paper discusses the characteristics, process, and future of the materials innovation. The process and status of materials technology in Korea are analyzed based on the discussions above. Finally, some suggestions for R＆D strategies of Korea are presented on the basis of the nature, trend and barriers of materials innovation.

This paper reviewed the relationship between organizational justice and innovative behavior, and the moderating effect of gender. The results of multiple regression analysis, based on the responses from 412 employees in small business, showed that distributive justice, procedural justice and interactional justice have positive relationships with innovative behavior(process innovation, operation innovation, service innovation). In moderating effects, distributive justice more positively related with innovative behavior(process innovation and operation innovation) in male-group than in female-group. But interactional justice more positively related with innovative behavior(operation innovation and service innovation) in female-group than in male-group.

Today, companies and social actors at the beginning of the Fourth Industrial Revolution are focusing on active innovation and efforts to adapt to rapidly changing environmental changes. Design thinking refers to creative strategies designers utilize during the process of designing. Design thinking is also an approach that can be used to consider issues and resolve problems more broadly than within professional design practice, and has been applied in business and to social issues. However, there are some limitations in the design thinking methodology during the project in the field. This paper presents a novel design - thinking process that incorporates a lean start - up based business model into the design thinking process. We conducted a case study to verify the effectiveness of our new design thinking process in social innovation projects. In this paper, it is meaningful to suggest and verify a new process that combines business model Zen to complement the limit of design thinking. It will also provide guidelines for design thinking projects as tools for social innovation.
