Regional innovation capabilities have been regarded as essential in developing regional economy. Many regional governments all over the world have been pouring great efforts to increase their regional innovation capabilities. In these days, this trend has been prevailed among Korean regional governments. In line with the active support of the central government, Korean regional governments have started their own regional innovation policies. This paper aims at discussing a regional government`s efforts in enhancing its innovation capabilities. As a representative region, we select Kyunggi Province, because it is one of the most advanced regions in Korea. We discuss Kyunggi Province`s innovation promotion efforts in terms of organization, budget, and programs. According to our analysis, the Kyunggi`s provincial government increased its innovation capabilities to a large scale. It has extended its S&T promotion organization, increased its R&D budget to a large scale, and increased its R&D promotion programmes and even initiated its own programs.

Japan has experienced a structural low growth in several decades. South Korea has also recently entered into a low-growth phase. The Japanese government is working to overcome the slow growth of national economy through Science, Technology and Innovation Policy. In this study, we will overview the STP policy of Japan and investigate and analyze the changes in organized systems of national R&D budget to do this. The purpose of the paper is to derive the policy implications that can be applied to the situation in Korea.

The PMB(performance measurement baseline) is the total time-phased budget plan against which program performance is measured. Additionally it is the schedule for expenditure of the resources allocated to accomplish program scope and schedule objectives, and is formed by the budget assigned. In this paper, we suggest an improvement of the R & D(research and development) program for defense acquisition by using the PMB and an application of the IBR(integrated baseline review) to review the PMB for project manager of the defense agency.

This paper analyze the DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) efficiency of government budget to HRD program(ITRC) and correlation and regression between its inputs and outputs in the field of information technology. First, empirical results show that the relationship between the supporting period of government budget and scientific research & HRD outputs is respectively irrelevant. Second, another finding is that the relationship between government budget and HRD output is positive. Finally, DEA efficiency analysis implicates that SW/digital contents, digital TV, information security, intelligence robot, next generation PC, next generation mobile telecommunication, home network, mathematics, IT SoC are more efficient than any other technology fields.

Recently the government expands its investment in basic research to overcome the limit of technology catch-up strategy. At this point, Korea's R&D supporting system needs to be evaluated whether it is appropriate to support creative basic research. Therefore, this study approaches to analyze the cases of basic research supporting system about the characteristics of basic research and necessary systematic requirements. This research discussed the necessity for introducing the paradigm of policy management system of basic research. Also it found that the performance of basic research is very important element for the effectiveness of research itself as well as continuous appropriacy of the system.

The R&D productivity has the same meaning as that of general meaning. Its input includes budget, facility, schedule, idea and target, and its output includes patent, paper, technological innovation and revenue increase and technology accumulation influenced by these factors. The choice of R&D item which will have the large effectiveness after customization, resource input of proper level, application of efficient development schema, effective usage of development output, objective appraisal for the R&D output and extension for the future project are the main factors for which is suggested to enhance the R&D productivity. The management's expectation for R&D can be represented as the innovativeness of output and potential influence to outsiders. The speedy output, even if incremental investment more than planning happens, will eventually result in the productivity enhancement of the enterprise, and managers must not encounter the opportunity loss in return for the excessive investment control.

SME is a major company to keep employment in Korea and highly depends on large company as vendor. R&D is critical to keep its position under the global competition. Government makes a policy to support SME R&D investement. We reviewed SMBA(Small and Medium Business Administration) policy for SME R&D and try to find alternatives. One of the alternatives is to increase a budget for large and SME co-development program.

This study aims to provide information about the priority setting and budget coordination of government R&D spendings in Korea. Based on the result of "survey, analysis and evaluation of national R&D programs" in FY 1999, this paper reviews the government R&D expenditures by concerned variables such as program objectives, sector of performance, character of work and technology fields. This paper also carries out an analysis on the government R&D supports as ways for the promotions of high technology-based start-ups and SMEs and regional innovation activities. It is found that relatively high investment is made in the industrial technology areas and development research, and there are some redundancies of R&D programs among ministries and agencies in terms of technology fields, program objectives and character of work. Policy implications and future research directions are suggested.

The quality of healthcare in Korea is very good, especially in life threatening disease. However, the level of healthcare research in Korea is not good relative to that of engineering. International university rankings also were showed that engineering was generally higher ranking than medicine. The reason of this phenomenon was deeply related to expenditure on research and development (R&D). Although Korea had a lot of gross domestic expenditure on R&D (GERD), 75% of GERD was from business enterprise that was related to engineering. Healthcare expenditure of R&D from business enterprise is small. Healthcare expenditure from government budget allocation on R&D (GBARD) was smaller than engineering. Higher education expenditure on R&D of GERD was also small and the quantity and quality of researcher in higher education was not enough. For Korea's healthcare to become the growth engine for future, GBARD should be invested heavily in the healthcare, a large part of the increased GBARD must be invested in higher education, and the higher education should invest to secure the higher quality researcher stably.

This study explored the Dis-Functional(DF) factors associated with the information and utilization of the R&D outcomes which has been left behind in the environmental & energy science research field. Of the total of 225 sample surveyed, exactly 66.2% responded to the questions about DF factors. The major factors that have been experienced by the respondents included the followings : the shortage of manpower and budget, inadequate network utilities of resource sharing, unstable policies of digitalization of R&D databases and of presenting a specimen copy(not only report itself but also experimental data), deficient knowledge resource system for the specialized sub-research areas, absence of the process of TLO and commercialization of R&D results, and underestimation of the significance of quality control (evaluation) of academic and research information. Some recommendations for utilization of the R&D outcomes were suggested according to the DF factors investigated.
