With increasing interest of health due to population aging, medical device industry is highlighted as a promising industry. However, Korea medical device industry is not enough market competitiveness compared to global company due to a narrow domestic market and a small company structure. In order to retain the national competitiveness, it is necessary that we have to derive a central technology and its trend. This study has predicted a central technology for medical device industrial using patent network analysis. The central technology is defined as a key technology that is connected to most other technologies and that significantly affects them. For the empirical study, we conducted social network analysis using covariance and correlation coefficient between IPC codes extracted from medical device patents, introduced by Jun(2012). A social network is a social structure of diverse items as well as of human beings. In this study, we set each medical device as a node in an SNA and analyze the Degree values between them. Also, Korea health industrial statistics system are utilized for verification of selected central technology. As a result, we found that the central technology is located on the medical device items, which are listed higher the amount of production. The central technology selected through the proposed methodology will provide a inspiration for establishment of R&D policy.

The rising pace of technological change in information and communications technology (ICT) has provoked technological convergence by providing a new mode of diversification. This paper investigates the nature of ICT-based converging technologies by examining comparative empirical evidence on converging versus nonconverging technologies in relation to the following issues: patent application trends, concentration across technologies, the concentration of patenting activity across firms, R&D efforts, and a technology impact index. For this study, a new operational definition of ICT-based converging technology is derived, and a massive quantity of patents, up to around 600,000, is analyzed. This study follows the International Patent Classification as well as the modified European Commission's industry classification system for the classification of technologies and industries, respectively.

In order to prepare new chiral borohydrides (4) possessing chirality on dialkyl moieties, a series of B-alkoxydiisopinocampheylborinates (3) were synthesized by treatment of diisopinocampheylborane ($Ipc_2BH$) with alcohols (R in ROH: Me, Et, i-Pr, t-Bu) and reacted with excess of potassium hydride. Of these chiral borinic esters, only B-methoxydiisopinocampheyl borinate (3a) was converted into the corresponding dialkylmonoalkoxyborohydride (4a). For the other borinic esters, hydride uptake reactions were very slow at room temperature, accompanying disproportionation products at $65^{\circ}C$. The hydride (4a) formed is stable at $0^{\circ}C$ and can be stored over potassium hydride for few months. In the asymmetric reduction of the selected ketones, 4a provided the corresponding alcohols, such as 21% ee for 3-methyl-2-butanone, 11% ee for 2,2-dimethylcyclopentanone, 24% ee for acetophenone, 32% ee for 3-acetylpyridine, 30% for methyl benzoylformate, 31% ee for 4-phenyl-3-butyn-2-one, 39% ee for 3-butyn-2-one, and 34% ee for 3-hexyn-2-one.

The Remote Procedure Call(RPC) has been traditionally used for Inter Process Communication(IPC) among precesses in distributed computing environment. As distributed applications have been complicated more and more, the Mobile Agent paradigm for IPC is emerged. Because there are some paradigms for IPC, researches to evaluate and compare the performance of each paradigm are issued recently. But the performance models used in the previous research did not reflect real distributed computing environment correctly, because they did not consider the evacuation elements for providing security services. Since real distributed environment is open, it is very vulnerable to a variety of attacks. In order to execute applications securely in distributed computing environment, security services which protect applications and information against the attacks must be considered. In this paper, we evaluate and compare the performance of the Remote Procedure Call with that of the Mobile Agent in IPC paradigms. We examine security services to execute applications securely, and propose new performance models considering those services. We design performance models, which describe information retrieval system through N database services, using Petri Net. We compare the performance of two paradigms by assigning numerical values to parameters and measuring the execution time of two paradigms. In this paper, the comparison of two performance models with security services for secure communication shows the results that the execution time of the Remote Procedure Call performance model is sharply increased because of many communications with the high cryptography mechanism between hosts, and that the execution time of the Mobile Agent model is gradually increased because the Mobile Agent paradigm can reduce the quantity of the communications between hosts.

Despite its matchless position in the global semiconductor industry, Korea has not distinguished itself in the semiconductor equipment sector. Semiconductor cleaning equipment is one of the semiconductor fabrication equipment, and it is expected to be more important along with the advancement of semiconductor fabrication processes. This study attempts to analyze technology competitiveness of major countries in the sector including Korea, and explore specialty sub-areas of the countries. For this purpose, we collected patents of semiconductor cleaning equipment during the last 10 years from the US patent database, and implemented quantitative patent analysis and co-classification network analysis. The result shows that, the US and Japan have been leading the technological progress in this sector, and Korea's competitiveness has lagged behind not only the leading countries but also its competitors and even latecomers. Therefore, intensive R&D and developing technological capabilities are needed for advancing the country's competitiveness in the sector.
