The dissemination process of agricultural research and development (R&D) results has somewhat different characteristics from that of typical R&D results. However, these characteristics are not adequately considered on the basis of an examination of the current performance system, the resulting management plans, and strategies for the application and dissemination of the results of agricultural R&D in Korea. The performance evaluation indicator exposed the problem of the inadequate consideration of the characteristics of each of these areas, particularly the lack of unified R&D-related institutions and the inadequacy of the system to monitor outcomes. To address these shortcomings in the agricultural R&D programs in Korea, the policies pertaining to agricultural R&D performance, results management, and dissemination in the U.S. and Japan were examined. Based on these investigations, we proposed strategies to improve the agricultural R&D policies in Korea.

최근 연구개발 투자규모가 급속히 증가함에 따라 정부는 R&D사업의 투자효율성을 높이기 위한 다양한 정책을 구사하고 있다. 구체적으로 R&D사업에 대한 성과평가를 강화하고 평가결과를 예산의 조정 및 배분에 반영하는 등 성과중심의 평가체계를 정착시키기 위해 노력하고 있다. 이처럼 국가연구개발사업에 대한 평가가 성과중심으로 체계화되기 위해서는 R&D 성과물을 과학적 객관적으로 분석할 수 있는 성과지표의 개발이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 전 부처 연구개발사업에 공통으로 적용할 수 있는 성과지표인 SCI논문지표를 바탕으로 교육과학기술부 3대 연구개발사업에 대한 구체적인 사례분석을 실시하여 이들 사업이 우리나라 전체 R&D에서 차지하는 질적 양적 위상을 파악하고자 하였다. 이러한 분석을 위해 SCI 관련 기존지표와 더불어 4개의 신규지표를 소개하였고 신규지표들의 타당성 조사를 위해 모의실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 보완된 순위보정영향력지수(ordinal rank normalized impact factor, omIF)가 분야간 비교 시 가장 적절한 성과지표인 것으로 분석되었다.

본 연구에서는 두 나라의 대표적인 두 기업이 R&D 경쟁과 쿠르노 경쟁을 하는 상황을 전제로 외국기업의 R&D 외부효과가 국내 주요 경제변수에 어떤 영향을 미치며 나아가 국내정부의 보호수준과 어떤 관계를 갖는지에 대한 무역정책의 문제를 규명한다. 국제적 과점의 2단계 모형을 통해 우리는 자유무역과 보호무역 정책에서 존재하는 유일한 해를 구하고, 나아가 시뮬레이션 분석을 통해 R&D 투자의 외부효과에 따른 주요 경제변수들의 변화 패턴과 일국의 최적관세 패턴을 추적한다. 이론적인 주요 예측으로 기업들이 R&D 경쟁을 하고 있는 상황에서 자유무역과 보호무역 두 경우에 모두 R&D 외부효과가 클수록 R&D 투자율과 수준이 감소하고, 사회후생은 유사한 패턴을 보이지만 그 수준은 보호무역에서 상대적으로 큰 것으로 드러난다. 또 이 연구의 가장 관심사항인 R&D 투자의 외부효과와 최적관세율 간의 관계에서는 두 변수 간에 부(-)의 관계가 나타난다. 이는 정책적으로 R&D 투자의 외부효과가 커짐에 따라 최적관세율을 낮출 필요가 있음을 시사한다.

The major countries including Korea extend the national investment on R&D and implement the business performance diffusion policy as the knowledge based competition age arrives recently. The necessity for risk management and systematic management system for R&D achievement have been appeared to prevent the failure as the R&D scale becomes larger as it was said. For this matter, the organization such as NASA and DoD in USA defines the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) as a quantitative accomplishment management index and utilize the Technology Readiness Assessment (TRA) system as a criterion. Such tool is evaluated as very effective in the R&D project purposed the practicalization. It is expected that the disadvantage of evaluation system which is oriented to the academic accomplishment in its contents of current research and to contribute greatly to the practicalization of outcomes when such technology readiness level concept is applied to Korean national construction and transportation R&D project. Accordingly, this study analyzed the concept of TRL·TRA, the characteristics and current evaluation management system of Korean national construction and transportation R&D project and suggested the construction and transportation R&D project TRL·TRA performance model to accomplish the practicalization purpose.

The external R&D, which includes the adoption of the external technology and knowledge in addition to the internal R&D, is one of important factors for the innovation. Especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the external R&D has been considered as a key factor to carry out the innovation more efficiently due to the limitations of their resources and capacities. However, most of extant studies related to external R&D have focused on analyzing the influence of external R&D on innovation outputs or outcomes. Only a few studies have explored the impact of external R&D on the innovation efficiency. This study therefore investigates whether the external R&D effects the industry's innovation efficiency and productivity. On this study, we used Korean manufacturing industry data of SMEs from 2012 to 2014 and employed a global Malmquist productivity analysis technique, which is based on the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), to assess the innovation efficiency and productivity. Innovation performances of external R&D group and internal R&D group are compared. Then, the sectoral patterns of both innovation efficiency and productivity are analyzed with respect to the technological intensity, which is introduced by OECD. The results show that the gap of innovation efficiency between external and internal R&D groups has gradually decreased because of the continuous improvement of the external R&D group's performance, while the external R&D group lag behind the internal R&D group. In addition, patterns of the innovation efficiency and productivity change were different depending on the technological intensity, which means that the higher the technological intensity, the greater the effect of external R&D.

국가연구개발 투자가 선진국 수준으로 증가함에 따라 투자 대비 성과 제고를 위해, 부처별 역할과 기능에 따라 상이한 소속부처(연구개발지원기관)간 협업의 필요성이 점차 부각되고 있다. 올해 출범한 신정부에서도 부처간 칸막이를 제거하고, 협업을 통한 국가연구개발사업 투자의 효율성 극대화를 정책목표로 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 한국연구재단과 한국환경산업기술원 간 우수한 연구성과의 선순환적 활용을 위한 협력사업 추진과 Eco-Bridge 구축 방안을 제시하였다. 양 기관은 2012년 환경융합분야 관련 연구개발사업의 성과제고를 골자로 하는 양해각서(MOU)를 체결하였다. 이후 미래창조과학부와 환경부 간 기초연구성과의 실용화를 위해 한국연구재단 지원으로 기 수행된 기초연구과제를 대상으로 한국환경산업기술원에서 응용연구과제를 공모하는 방식의 협력체제를 국내 최초로 구축하고 환경부 공모 '2013년 환경융합신기술개발사업'으로 향후 3년 동안 약 20억원을 지원하게 된다. 또한 부처간 상설 협의기구인 '환경융합 Bridge 협의회' 설립 및 기초 R&D분야 연구자와 산업체 수요자를 상호 연계하는 Matching Program을 추진할 계획이다. 이와 같은 양 기관 협력체제는 기초 R&D가 시장 예측 및 수요를 기반으로 하는 R&BD의 형태로 발전하는 새로운 모델을 제시하고 나아가 부처별 연구지원 특성을 반영한 범부처 협력체계의 구축으로 국가연구개발사업의 효율성을 제고할 것으로 기대된다.

R&D is inherently an uncertain endeavor, yet now more than ever those performing R&D with public funding are called upon to clarify the utility of their research. Calls for public accountability are mounting with the increase in constraints on government budgets due to the recent worldwide economic recession, in response to which both policymakers and researchers pay much more attention to rigorously assessing publicly funded R&D. A key issue complicating R&D evaluation in these circumstances is how to adequately account for the nature and degree of risk involved in a given R&D program or project. This study deliberates on certain issues involving the measurement of ex-ante risk in public R&D evaluation: (i) information asymmetry between R&D sponsors and performers, (ii) ambiguity in the measurement of returns in both prospective and retrospective evaluation, and (iii) the dilemma between measurement error and omitted variable bias for empirical estimation of R&D performance. The study then presents an analysis of hypothetical evaluation results that apply risk-relevant weights to the annual evaluation outcomes of South Korea's national R&D programs funded during 2006~2012. In this counterfactual re-evaluation of public R&D program performance, high-risk R&D programs turn out to receive higher evaluation than non-high-risk programs. The current study suggests that R&D evaluation ignoring ex-ante risk is not only conceptually invalid since R&D activities are intrinsically uncertain endeavors, but unfair as R&D performers are asked to be accountable for the results that were in fact out of their reach.

재난안전 R&D는 2008년 이후 지속적인 예산 증가 추세에도 불구하고 소방안전 R&D 예산은 극히 일부에 불과하여 소방산업의 경제성장을 견인할 만한 성과가 도출되지 못하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 소방안전 R&D인 현장중심형 소방활동지원 기술개발사업을 대상으로 질적 성과에 영향을 미치는 요인이 무엇인지를 분석함으로써 향후 소방안전 R&D의 예산 확대, 연구개발 역량 강화 및 성과 양산 방안에 대한 시사점을 주는데 목적이 있다. 통계 프로그램(SPSS statistics 21.0)을 사용하여 일원배치 분산분석과 회귀분석을 통한 실증분석을 실시하였으며 결과적으로 본 연구를 통해 질적으로 우수한 특허와 논문 성과를 창출하기 위해서는 지속적인 투자 확대와 우수한 연구인력이 필요함을 시사한다.

Although each company is trying to develop an economic analysis model with its own particular style or format, the appropriate method is not yet developed because there are many problems to be solved such as uncertainity of outcomes and intangible benefits of technology. The purpose of tris paper therefore is to suggest an economic analysis methodology, which reflects the complexity and the risk of R&D investment, through a case study on the development of a superconductor fault current limiter. A self-developed Monte Carlo simulation program utilized as a main tool in this paper was very useful for risk analysis of R&D investment which could not be solved in the previous DCF(Discounted Cash Flow) model. We also introduce learning effect to consider the intangible benefits such as Know-How obtained from R&D execution. The expected value and its probability distribution for R&D investment can be obtained by combining the Monte Carlo method with the decision tree approach. This result is helpful in judging the priority and the resource-allocation of R&D projects. It is however necessary to develop more precise model for quantifying the technology stock and the simulation program using the continuous probability distribution in expected values to improve the reliability of economic analysis on R&D projects.

This study empirically examined different patterns of collaborative R&D project with their key success factors(KSFs), using data from 80 projects in the Korean electronic parts industry The patterns in this study were categorized into 4 types by two criteria : product types(off-the-shelf/unique) and project initiator (focal/partner). The bivariate relationships revealed that project characteristics (technological complexity, demand certainty), partner characteristics(the number of partners, precious experience), process characteristics (participation in the project formulation, specificity of the collaboration process and outcomes) appear to be different among four types of collaboration. Furthermore, this study found that each type of collaborative R&D projects has different KSFs for their commercial success. The KSFs of type 1 (off-the-shelf product and focal organization initiation), for instance, include the strategic importance of the project, the problem solving performance of the focal organization while those of type 4(unique product and partner initiation) are technological complexity, demand certainty, reliability of partner relationship, specificity of the goals, specificity of the process and outcomes, information sharing. Finally, based on this empirical results, managerial, policy, and theoretical implications of the study were discussed.
