In this era of globalization and fierce competition, R&D is an essential part of corporate development strategy. Accordingly, much effort has been devoted to identify and verify best practices for successful R&D and to improve R&D processes. Nevertheless, there is still lack of a comprehensive framework for assessing the quality of R&D process, which can be used as a step-by-step guide for process improvement. Therefore, this study purposes to develop a framework for assessing R&D process based on the concept of CMMI, which is a process improvement approach that defines the essential elements of effective processes. In particular, we suggest three types of R&D process-new product development, new service creation and new technology creation-and then develop a customized framework for them. For this purpose, we firstly investigated the characteristics of R&D activities for each type of process and identify its base practices from an extensive literature review. Then, the CMMI approach was adopted and modified to suit the R&D process. Finally, an illustrative example was provided to demonstrate the assessment process and a prototype web-based assessment system was suggested. Research findings will help understand the characteristics of different types of R&D process and provide a customized guidelines for R&D process assessment and improvement.

The trend of R&D in automotive electronics industry is shifting towards ECU(Electronic Control Units) based on softwares which requires technology convergence to accommodate customers' requests on safety and convenience. The trend requires systemized R&D paradigm which reflects increased role of softwares. As the softwares became the core components in automotive innovation, there has been wide range of efforts to introduce software R&D processes and methodologies such as CMMI, A-SPICE and ISO-26262 etc. However, R&D departments in the industry fields are confronted with conflicts which arise from discrepancies among the individual process. In this study, we focus on suggesting our integrated and systematic R&D process with the aim of alleviating the conflicts and confusions. For this purpose, we analyze the cases of Korean automotive electronics companies to compare various R&D processes in the field and their relationships. Based on the analysis, we derive and suggest our model of R&D process which effectively integrate ISO/TS-16949 for manufacturing quality and CMMI, A-SPICE, ISO-26262 for system with softwares.

본고에서는 탈추격형 연구방법을 정립하는 데 중요한 요소가 되는 R&D 전주기 프로세서를 제안하였다. 이를 위해 연구방법의 개념 정립에 필요한 R&D 관련 기본 개념들과 과거 추격형 R&D의 연구방법론으로 활용되었던 시스템 개발 프로세스를 소개하였다. 향후 새롭게 정립되어야 할 탈추격형 R&D의 개념을 정의하고 그 특성으로써 기술의 아이디어 생성부터 시장에서 활용되는 기술 수명 전주기에 걸쳐 프로세스 활동을 정립하였다. 또한 연구개발 기획 시부터 산업화에 이르는 R&D 전주기 프로세스에서 강점과 약점을 비교하여 탈추격형 R&D에서 특히 보강되어야 할 주요 활동과 프로세스를 구성하는 각 단계에서의 수행해야 할 주요 활동을 제시하였다. 이를 통하여 탈추격형 R&D를 실행하기 위한 연구방법으로써 적용할 수 있는 연구방법론의 기반을 마련하였다.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of R&D process maturity on product development performance and to verify whether R&D project performance mediating effect. The questionnaire was collected and analyzed to 131 persons related to the R&D work in 55 companies and public institutions performing R&D work. The results of this study are as follows, the effect of R&D process maturity on product development performance and mediating effect of R&D project performance were analyzed by simple and multiple regression analysis. Regression analysis was analyzed by SPSS statistical program. The higher the maturity level of the R&D process, the higher the product development performance and the R&D project performance, and the R&D project performance is partially mediated. It is concluded that it is important to establish and operate a systematic R&D process and to develop a project management methodology suitable for the characteristics of a company in order to improve product development performance. It is expected that if this study are utilized as practical R&D management methodology in corporate management, it will contribute to improvement of company product performance.

There is insufficient effective management systems to achieve project goalsin disaster and safety R&D. Therefore, to develop an R&D performance management system, this paper develops a R&D performance management matrix based on PMBOK to systematize a process and to enhance efficiency of performance management. Also, this paper identified vulnerable procedures in disaster management by analyzing related laws, work process and performance. Analysis results found that the performance management matrix in disaster management R&D consists of 5 process groups, 7 knowledge areas and 47 processes. Also, the performance of the diffusion knowledge process was evaluated as weak in the present management system. This study defined ITO and developed a data flow diagram for applicationto related work. The suggestions of this study include the related work to enhance R&D performance, contribute to improving diffusion of R&D performance, and enhance the utilization of developed technologies.

The purpose of this study is to pro-actively respond to changes in government R&D policy and start to supplement the limitations of previous KIGAM R&D planning process. We looked out through the existing literature for a variety of R&D planning process, and analyzed the R&D planning process characteristics of each institution through the interview. As a result, we can be derived conclusions and implications from three sides, environmental analysis, demand excavation methods, R&D project configuration and selection method. In the case of environmental analysis and the overall need to enhance the skills and mega trend analysis by market trend analysis. And in the demand side, the institute need to establish challenging and specific R&D goals. In addition, in case of configuration and selection of R&D projects we derived several implications, such as convergence, SME support, resource analysis, selection of long-term project.

Over the last two decades, national R&D projects have been increased rapidly. The government has tried to improve the success of national R&D projects. But the weakness of the evaluation process for national R&D projects, there remains some problems. In order to solve those problems this study proposed an advanced evaluation process of national R&D projects on the basis of ISO/IEC15288, ISO/IEC12207 and ISO/IEC14598. The evaluation process consists of preparing evaluation, establishing evaluation requirements, specifying evaluation, designing evaluation, executing evaluation and reporting evaluation. The evaluation process is an artifact-oriented process. The results of this study can be used for reforming the evaluation process of national R&D projects.
