Innovative capacities and performance are essential for the growth of the IT industry and the development of the Korean economy. Global R&D centers are important sources of innovation in the IT industry. In order to identify the structure of the innovation environment of global R&D centers in IT industry, we conducted a field survey of 50 global R&D centers and 50 global R&D policy experts in IT industry. According to the empirical results obtained using the Linear Structure Model, it is suggested that, first, with regard to a short-term IT global policy, the direction of the Korean government's policy should act as a trigger to connect the research domain and the market domain; second, the government policy should act as a facilitator to connect the development domain and the research domain in the mid-term period; and, finally, the government's R&D policy should serve as a disseminator to connect technological capability and the market space domain in the long-term perspective. For an effective way of internationalizing innovation, IT policy planners should regard global IT R&D centers as the important components of national innovation system and encourage the effective involvements by them in the process of IT industrial innovation.

Recently, the space field has become an important element both for national economies and in national security. In the continued development of the space field, policy must play a very important role. However, many researchers who want to participate in space policy are experiencing difficulties due to the lack of a clear explanation and definition of the term 'space policy' itself. Accordingly, this paper defines 'space policy', which is further classified into 'space research and development policy', 'space economy policy', 'space law and regulation policy', 'space security policy', and 'space diplomacy policy'. The important elements of each space policy field are analyzed as well.

Government R&D policies generate diverse intended and unintended effects including innovator-specific and spatial effects. The Korean government has promoted R&D policies throughout the industrializing period, resulting in R&D networks focused on government research institutes geographically concentrated in the Capital region and Daedeok. This research aims to review the development of the Korean national R&D projects and analyze the recent composition of participants and spatial effects of the Korean national R&D projects. The results show that, in terms of the participants, the R&D networks generated from the Korean national R&D projects have been diversified from dominance of the government research institutes to strategic collaboration between the Korean private firms, universities, and government research institutes. Spatially, the R&D networks are not regionalized, and many private firms in most of the regions have nationwide R&D networks or still rely on the R&D networks in the Capital region.

Notifying emergency evacuation methods, accurate disaster location and evacuation route guidance can be very active alternatives to quickly minimize evacuation and casualties in disaster situation in the development of subway disaster prevention detection system that detects the disaster signs at the subway station early on the basis of Internet of things and leads passengers to evacuate. It's not easy to ensure perfect functioning of fire fighting facilities and equipments due to underground space structure with narrow exits. Therefore, we developed disaster provision EL Display integrated board that can induce the most efficient evacuation and the field experiment was conducted to examine the practical application in this study. Especially the applicability was verified by field application test because there is no case in which EL panels are used to evacuate disasters.

Scientific and technological performances (e.g., patents and publications) made through R&D play a pivotal role for national economic growth. National governments encourage academia-industry cooperation and thereby pursue continuous development of science technology and innovation. Increasing R&D-related investments and manpower are crucial for national industrial development, but evidence of poor performance in business performance, efficiency, and effectiveness has recently been found in Korea. This study evaluates performance efficiency of the 6T sector (Information Technology, Bio Technology, Nano Technology, Space Technology, Environment Technology, Culture Technology), which is considered a high-potential promising industry for the next generation growth and currently occupies two thirds of the national R&D projects. The study measures the relative efficiency of R&D in a comparative perspective by employing the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. The result reveals overall low efficiency in basic R&D (0.2112), applied R&D (0.2083), development R&D (0.2638), and others (0.0641), confirming that economic performance and efficiency were relatively poor compared to production efficiency. Efficient R&D needs policy makers to create strategies that can increase overall efficiency by improving productivity performance and quality while increasing economic performance.

Technical development have broaden human activity ranges and make human possible to defend the disasters which was undependable in the past. However, human's space activity brought a new kind of disaster to human. In the past, natural space objects was the only concern from the space, like the asteroid fallen on Chelyabinsk, Russia. But, nowadays, by the increasing number of the man-made space objects, these space kind of threat have diversified and become very real. So, nationwide safety strategy should be established to protect the people. In this paper, we suggest three points to make the decision for establishing the strategy based on the AHP analysis results.

The space industry is a comprehensive and technology-intensive industry involving different converging technologies. However, most of the companies in Korea's space industry are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and need to strengthen global capacity to export their products. However, the link between the destination country and the product remains insufficient. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to propose an export roadmap for space products to provide SMEs with export opportunities and strategic guidelines. For this, technology roadmap and portfolio analysis are applied to this purpose. This study is expected to be helpful to SMEs and government agencies.

The movement of continuously changing positions should be stored and indexed for querying current and past positions. A simple extension of the original R-tree to add time as another dimension, called 3D R-tree, does not handle current position queries and does not address the problem of low space utilization due to high overlap of index nodes. In this paper, 1 propose the dynamic splitting policy for improving the 3D R-tree in order to improve space utilization of split nodes. 1 also extend the original 3D R-tree by introducing a new tagged index structure for being able to query the current and past positions of moving objects. 1 found out that my extension of the original R-tree, called the tagged dynamic 3DR-tree, outperforms both the 3D R-tree and 75-tree when querying current and past position.

This paper suggests policy implications for Daedeok Innopolis (DI) in Daejeon by comparing the development and problems of DI with the San Diego biotechnology cluster. DI has strengthened its capabilities for technology commercialization and business activities after having created and managed by the Korean central government. While DI has been successful in increasing the number of institutes, researchers, research activities, however, its dynamism is not rigorous enough to be a regional innovative system. San Diego's scientific and entrepreneurial community shows the importance of formulating social and spatial contexts for mutual interactions and engagements. In San Diego, UCSD and networking organizations, especially CONNECT, are central in promoting interactions and communications between regional constituents including entrepreneurs, academics and local governments. The mechanisms of San Diego biotechnology imply that DI should provide more attention to designing and developing social and geographical space that can unleash the creative power of social interactions. To build an innovative regional system, DI needs to renovate its space, public-private relationship and networking platforms.
