The productivity increase by technological advance is the biggest driving force of economic growth. In this paper, we investigate the inputs and outputs of the manufacturing and service industries in Korea. We also estimate the total and partial factor productivities of both industries using the Solow model and the Kendrick model. Finally, we analyze the contribution of each input factor to industrial growth.

본 연구의 목적은 확률적 생산변경함수를 이용하여 총요소생산성 성장을 도출하고 그 내부요소를 기술효율성 변화, 기술진보, 규모효율변화, 배분적 효율변화로 구분하여 생산성 성장의 요인을 파악해 보고자 함이다. 1990-2003년간 항만물류산업의 총요소생산성 증가율은 연간 0.019 (1.9%)로서 전산업의 증가율 0.010보다 높다. 그 내부의 주된 기여요인은 기술진보이고 기술효율성변화는 감소하였다. 총요소생산성의 주된 기여요인으로는 항만산업은 배분효율성, 해운산업은 기술진보, 수송장비산업은 규모효율변화를 들 수 있다. 총요소생산성 변화는 1990년대 후반이후에 감소하는 추이를 보였다. 항만물류산업은 전산업에 비하여 매우 낮은 수준의 기술효율성수준을 보여주고 있고 산출탄력성 관점에서는 1990-2003년간 자본의 탄력성(0.391)이 노동의 탄력성(0.227)보다 높지만 규모에 대한 보수는 0.618로서 최적규모에 상당히 벗어나 있다.

The theory of creative class has shown that the creative people are the key factor of success in regional economic growth. The creative people strengthen the economic competitiveness which is crucial to attract, cultivate and mobilize the resources of that region. In order to examine the theory of creative class for regional economic growth and firm productivity in Korea, this study uses the panel data of 492 Korean firms of the industrial complex producing electic and electronic manufactured goods. They are grouped into 10 industrial complexes among 16 metropolitan areas. Our findings demonstrate that creative class and 3Ts are related to the ratio of creative population density and the regional economic growth. Specifically the creative core class is of more significance to the regional economic growth than the creative professional class or the creative artist class. In our findings the panel analysis of random effects model shows that the talent index of 3Ts as well as the regional climates arc related to the individual firm's total factor productivity. This also reflects a conglomeration of the other regional climates statistically. On the other hand, the research and development expenditure of individual firms shows positive influence for each second consecutive year for the total factor productivity. Sales volume also contributes to the total factor productivity. In conclusion, we recommend that it is important to upgrade the level of creative climates by attracting the creative minds and R&D investment of the enterprises for regional economic growth and firm's total factor productivity.

This paper identifies the productivity in the Global Air Transport Industry for the period of 1995-2001 by testing the Total Factor Productivity with tonqvist method. Based on panel data from 20 major international airline corporations which formed global strategic alliances, we find alliances make a considerably significant contribution to productivity increases. We also find that total factor productivity rate changed surprisingly in Air Transport Industry between pre- and post-Asian financial crisis period.

This study applied the parametric bootstrapping method to analyze whether there was a change in the production efficiency of institutions under Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries. This study used input and output oriented productivity simultaneously. In particular, the productivity was estimated through 95% confidence interval derived by 2000 times re-sampling process. The results of the study showed us a reduction in overall total factor productivity by 24% between 2009 and 2013, and 7% of decreases in productivity annually. A recent conditions of an external economic shocks brought a 28% downward shift of production function. In this study, public institutions were divided into three types, which were public, quasi-government, and other public institutions. There were approximately 13%, 1%, and 5% decreases in total factor productivity per each. In analyzing the productivity each of 14 institutions, approximately DMU4 and DMU6 had 4%, and 5% increases in productivity per each. While DMU14 showed us no changes in productivity, all of the other 10 DMUs were estimated the decreases in productivities.

Productivity is an important factor of the construction's success and growth. However, compared to the other industries, the study of productivity in the construction industry is still insufficient. Even though the Cast-in-Place piles work is also important in construction process, the research on the productivity is not enough. So, it is necessary for the systematic research on the productivity of Cast-In-Place Piles Work. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to classify lower productivity's cause and find a way to improve these situations. This study will give the checklist for the further study of factoring and improvement of the Cast-in-Place piles work productivity.

Construction Productivity is one of the most important elements in construction management. It is used in construction process scheduling and cost management, which are significant sector in construction management. It is important to make appropriate schedule and monitor how works are done within schedule. But construction project contains uncertainty and inexactitude, modifying construction schedule is being an issue to manage construction works well. Even though prediction and monitoring of productivity can be principal activity, it is hard to predict productivity with manager's experience and a standard of estimate. A large number of factors influencing productivity, such as drawing, construction method, weather, labor, material, equipment, etc. But current calculation of productivity depends on empirical probability, not consider difference of each influencing factor. In this research, the aim is to present a productivity predicting regression model of form work, which includes effectiveness of influences factors. 5 variables existed inside form work are selected by interview and site research based on literature review of existed various productivity influencing factors. The effectiveness and correlation of productivity influencing factors are analyzed by statistical approach, and it is used to make productivity regression model. The finding of this research will improves monitoring and controlling of project schedule in construction phase.

Whereas a large variety of previous studies show mixed results regarding the relationship between public investment and economic outcome, several studies have been conducted on related issues in Korea. The present study deals with the effect of public investment in Korea on economic growth and productivity. Using administrative data, it exploits three different methodologies: the total factor productivity approach, production function approach, and stochastic frontier production function approach. The results of this study show that public investment has a statistically significant effect on economic growth. However, it contributes little to enhance productivity. It is explained that there exists inefficiency of production in the Korean economy. These findings indicate that public investment has played a central role in the direct input factor and not in indirect role in Korea. Thus, it is necessary for public investment policies to concentrate on enhancing the efficiency of the Korean economy.

This study analyzed the factors that influence the research productivity of 236 graduate students who are funded by the Global Ph.D. Fellowship Program of the National Research Foundation of Korea. Research productivity was measured by the number of SCI publications, and the explanatory factors are the demographic factor, the financial factor, the reputation of institutions and the supervisor factor. This study included 2 indices such as the reputation of institutions and the research productivity of supervisors to check the halo effect unlike other studies. Results are as follows: 1) no gender difference, 2) better performance by younger age group, 3) no difference even if the students are additionally funded by other research support programs, 4) no halo effect by the reputation of institution but rather better performance from low ranked universities, 5) and a positive halo effect by supervisors.

본 연구에서는 1주기와 2 주기 모두 의료기관평가 대상이 된 병원의 Malmquist 지수를 구하고 지수변동의 원인을 분석하였다. 그 결과 평가대상이 된 병원의 Malmquist 방식에 의한 생산성 향상이 이루어졌음을 발견할 수 있었다. 의료기관평가점수와 생산성 변동과의 관계를 살펴본 결과 진료 및 운영체계 점수가 부문별성과 점수에 비해 높은 설명력을 가지고 있었다. 또한 생산성 향상이 큰 병원일수록 환산지수 하락 폭도 큰 것으로 나타났으며 이러한 결과는 병원의 종별, 그룹별, 지역별 모수 요인과도 독립적인 것으로 나타났다. 생산성 변동 폭이 큰 병원일수록 환산지수 하락 폭이 더 큰 것으로 나타나 수가계약의 한 요소로 생산성지표를 도입할 수 있는 가능성을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 정태적 효율성 보다는 다기간 생산성 변동을 반영한 환산지수 추정 모형과 지불제도 개편 시 다연도성과를 반영하는 메카니즘 개발이 검토되어야 한다는 점을 의미한다.
