Various fields are being combined and developed for the development of the country and industry. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of interdisciplinary research on the technology commercialization of researchers in the national R&D project. For the purpose of empirical analysis, major research and development have been reviewed. Major research and development projects conducted by government-funded research institution in which various technological fields are integrated in order to commercialize technology. The research data is based on the major R&D project data for railway/public transportation/logistics fields technology in 2015-17, and 149 project were selected for analysis. As a result, it was found that diversity of participants' experts had significant positive effect on technology commercialization when R&D expense, The number of research participants, The number of participating organizations, TRL before R&D were controlled. It is expected that the results of this study will be used meaningfully when the R&D program plan, analysing the academic convergence factor of research topic.

The public research and development (R&D) funds for construction engineering is one of the key elements for the advancement of construction industry. Korean Ministry of Construction and Transportation is currently planning to produce approximately US$ 500 millions of research funds every year in Korea from year 2007. Along with the prospect for increasing R&D investment, there is of increasing pressures on the development of quantitative methodologies for assessing the performance of construction R&D results. Although there have been some general R&D project evaluation methods, they are not readily used for construction R&D research assessment due to the distinct characteristics of construction R&D. This paper presents a simple methodology that can make quantitative assessments of construction R&D performances. The proposed methodology is expected to assist government officials in objectively evaluating construction R&D performances and identifying the areas that require more R&D investment.

Korean government has been investing more than 400 billion KRW in R&D on renewable energy. This paper aims to measure the R&D efficiency of national R&D program in the field of renewable energy, and to identify the sources of inefficiency. 4,213 R&D projects supported by Korean government during 2009-2011 are analyzed by using Data Envelopment Analysis and statistical tests. Results implies as follows. First, hydrogen, bio, fuel cell, photovoltaic have higher R&D efficiency than other renewable energies. Second, universities conducted national R&D program more efficiently than firms did, and small and medium sized enterprises are more efficient than large sized enterprises. Third, R&D inefficiency is mainly caused by the lacks of patent performance rather than excessive R&D investment or academic paper performance.

Government's R ＆ D Subsidy system is difference to the agency of R ＆ D performance. Ministry of Science and Technology(MOST), Ministry of Information and Communication(MIC) have a similarity rules to grants programs by the President's order. Name is 'The Rules of the National R ＆ D Program Management'. But this rules established for the national institute, university and big enterprise., Then, This Rules difference for the Snail and Medium Enterprise(SME's). Some article is not allowed for the SME's. So, Suggestion for this question should improvement.

Given the huge increase in interest in biotechnology, whose applications are being expanded as a new growth engine, investment and agency participation are also increasing. In 2008, the level of investment by the national R&D programs in future emerging technologies (6T) in the field of biotechnology was as great as that in IT, and six agencies and many relevant research institutes are now carrying out various related projects. This paper intends to review the status of investment in biotechnology by analyzing the portfolio and positioning of the national R&D biotechnology programs, which address global issues such as the quality of life, the aging society, and environment and energy, and to propose a new investment strategy and direction for the efficient implementation of the national R&D programs.

우리나라는 높은 R&D 투자에 비해 기술사업화 성과가 낮다. 이로 인해 공공연구기관의 R&D결과물의 성과확산에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며 이는 궁극적으로 기술사업화의 중요성이 보다 부각되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기술수요자인 기업고객을 대상으로 심층인터뷰 및 시장조사를 통해 기술사업화 추진과정에서의 애로사항 및 개선 니즈를 분석함으로써 향후 국내 기술사업화 활성화를 위한 시사점을 제시하고자 한다.

This study aims to make suggestions for more effective budget utilization and R&D project investment through verification of the efficiency of research results for the government's R&D projects. Efficiency was analyzed using Data Envelope Analysis(DEA) and 'Malmquist Index analysis' for the research results of convergence research projects organized by the National Science and Technology Research Association. The analysis targets were convergence research projects organized by the National Science and Technology Research Association and general entrusted research projects by government-funded research institutes, and dynamic analysis was conducted using DEA and Malmquist Index analysis. As a result of the analysis, the convergence research project showed high efficiency from the static perspective of DEA. On the other hand, from a dynamic perspective through the Malmquist Index analysis method, the efficiency of the general consignment project gradually declined, while the efficiency of the convergence research project improved every year. This suggests that convergence studies have higher results than general studies. Through the results of this study, we intend to present objective standards for performance evaluation of government R&D investment and provide objective implications for rational investment policies and research project planning of research personnel and research funds to improve efficiency for government-funded research institutes.

The construction industry has been recognized as lagging behind other industries in the area of research and development (R&D) due primarily to the lack of R&D funds. To overcome this situation, the Korea Ministry of Construction and Transportation has a plan to expand its investments on the construction R&D up to 1.72 billion US dollars over the next 3 years. Despite this effort, it is still challenging to conduct the quantitative measurement on the efficiency of construction R&D projects, which can be utilized as the objective basis in the reasonable selection of a promising R&D team or in the consequential evaluation of a R&D performance. This study aims to conduct the efficiency analysis on the construction R&D projects to provide the basis for evaluating the performance of research and development. Toward this end, this study performs an efficiency analysis, which reflects all of the input and output data into/from the construction R&D by utilizing the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The proposed methodology can be utilized to make a better decision on the priority of the R&D investments and present a sound basis to suggest the areas to be improved so as to reduce the inefficiency of R&D projects.

This study aims to examine whether the characteristics such as a start-up company, possessing a research organization, and benefiting from government R&D programs significantly contributed to the conversion of marginal companies to normal companies, from the viewpoint of technological innovation. The result shows supporting government R&D programs to start-up companies that have become a marginal company positively contributes to the transition to a normal company, centering on the high-tech industry. In addition, it was confirmed that the research organization of marginal companies positively contributed to the transition to a normal company. These results imply that a paradigm shift from the existing industrial policy focusing on restructuring of marginal companies to a selective support policy for marginal companies with a high possibility of transition to normal companies is strongly needed. It is also necessary to strengthen the strategic use of government R&D programs to support the transition of a marginal company to a normal company.
