This study attempts to explore the evolution paths of Korean SMEs'strategies and their technological teaming processes. Several different evolution paths are identified based on a dynamic strategic group analysis of 115 SMEs'strategy in the Korean electronic component industry for the period of 1990-1995. Further, inadept case analyses on technological learning processes in 5 firms are undertaken. Major findings of this study can be summarized as follows : 1) There are three dominant evolution paths in SMEs'strategy. First path indicates the evolution from a subcontractor or petty imitator group(a strategic group with the narrow product/market domain and the low level of accumulated resource/capabilities) into an innovator group(a strategic group with the narrow domain but high level of technological capability) by accumulating technological capabilities. Second, some firms move from a subcontractor group into a generalizer group(a strategic group with broad product/market domain but relatively low level of technological capability) by simply adding product lines. Third path involves firms which evolve from a subcontractor group into a production focus group(a strategic group with high level of production capability) by investing in production capabilities. 2) An in-depth case analysis shows those who succeeded in technological learning are managed by CEOs, who have technological expertise and strategic vision, and have made an effort to establish management practices to support innovation, such employee educational program, performance-based reward system, etc. The successful firms also aggressively pursue diverse external linkages with outside technology sources to learn product and process technologies. Fiendly, this study discusses several implications of the findings for the theoretical development and strategic management of small firms in Korea.

The paper considers the main processes of evolution and convergence of information and communication technologies, which have a permanent source for creation and introduction of innovations in learning and education. The modern scientific and technological revolution gives new features to all modern activities, including activities in the sphere of education, influencing it and transforming its phases, form and content, and perhaps understanding in general. Consequently, general understandings about the essence of the provision of educational services and their technological support are also being transformed. Note that, according to scientists, convergence is a new determinant of the development of society, and evolution is a multidimensional natural process of development (becoming).

Recent studies of science and technology "in-the-making" revealed that the process of designing material artifacts is not a straightforward application of prior images or theories by one (or more) person(s) isolated from his or her (their) environment. Rather, designing is a process contingent on the social and material setting for both engineering designers and students. Over the past decade, designing technological artifacts has emerged as an important learning environment in science classrooms. Through the analyses of a large database concerning an innovative simple machines curriculum for sixth-and seventh-grade students, we accumulated valid evidence for the nature of the designing process and science learning through it. In this paper, we show that design actions intertwine with the transformation of the objectified raw materials and artifact, the designer collective, and the mediating tools enabling that transformation, which constitute the elements of an activity from the perspective of cultural-historical activity theory. We conceptualize the continuous change of relation between material artifacts, designers, and tools throughout the design activity as co-evolution. Two episodes were selected to exemplify synchronic and diachronic change of relations inherent in co-evolving activity system. Finally, we discuss the implications of co-evolution during design activity for science learning.

This paper investigates the evolution of 'inter-firm' technology transfer in the Thai automobile industry, which has gradually been integrated into global production network of some specific automotive models(one-ton pickups). This paper discusses the linkage between the role of automobile assemblers in transferring technology and the way their strategic changes bring about heightened demands on the technological capacity of suppliers and the contents of technology transfer. With higher competition at the global level, local suppliers are required to improve their technical and managerial skills, especially in the area of 'product engineering' capability. The authors examine the ways local firms have adapted to these changes in their environments, as well as the ways they utilize inter-firm relationship with automobile assemblers as a means to improve their own technological capabilities. The dynamic process of capability formation in local parts firms, through intensive efforts and learning inducements brought about by inter-firm relationships, are also discussed.

본 연구는 급진적인 환경면화를 대표하는 정보산업에서의 기술혁신의 진화과정을 탐색하였다. 진화론경제학이론을 바탕으로하는 동태적인 기술변화과정과 조직생태학이론으로부터의 산업-특정조직유형간의 관계를 결합하는 통합적인 모델을 개발하였다. 진화론경제학이론의 관점에 기초하여, 시감이 감에 따라 선택압력에 의해 미래기술의 지표로서 역할을 하는 소위 '기본설계'가 등장하고 그 기본설계는 일관성 있는 경로를 따르는 경향이 있으며, 그 기술이 한계점에 도달하기 전까지 기술경계들의 급진적 팽창을 촉진시키지만, 한계점에 도달했을 때 새로운 기술패러다임을 탐색한다는 것을 분석하였다. 아울러 조직군생태학 관점으로부터 5개 조직유형을 구분하였으며, 각 조직유형들은 산업내 기술변화의 진화과정에 따라 서로 다른 기회를 탐색한다는 것을 살펴보았다. 진화론경제학이론과 조직군생태학이론은 오랜 학문적 역사를 가진 생물학에 바탕을 두고 있으며 기존 전략 조직이론들이 설명하지 못했던 기술적 변화 또는 실패와 같은 전략적 사건들에 대한 인과관계를 설명하는데 깊은 통찰력을 제공해 준다. 따라서 향후 두 이론에 바탕을 둔 좀더 정교하고 통합적인 이론연구와 실증연구들이 지속될 필요가 있음을 말해준다.

Focusing on a product, this paper reconstructs the concept of technological systems first introduced by Carlsson and Stankiewicz (1991). Based on the model and our earlier works, we compare the salient features of technological systems for computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine tools in Korea, Sweden, and the United States.. We also try to measure the performance of the systems in an international comparison. Major findings are as follows: (1) The length of 'learning period' for local (national) technological system is substantial, even though it is a catching-up case. (2) The key success factor of the technological system appears to be the connectivity among various actors or infrastructures, rather than just the existence or formation of those. (3) In three countries' experience, the government played an important role in the formation of each own technological system. (4) The performance of Korea's technological system for CNC machine tools during the past two decades(1981-97) seems to be better than that of Sweden and the U.S. Lastly, many policy implication are presented.

복합제품시스템이란 고도의 엔지니어링과 설계 기술이 집약되어 있는 복잡한 시스템 형태의 제품으로 국가 경제 발전 및 에너지, 교통, 통신 등 사회 인프라 구축과 밀접하게 연계되어 있다. 이에 따라 복합제품시스템의 기술진화를 이해하기 위해서는 기술개발 주체의 기술진보 노력을 넘어서 복합제품시스템을 둘러싼 거시환경요인이 기술진화에 미친 영향을 복합적으로 고찰하는 것이 필요하다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 원자력 발전 플랜트 사례를 중심으로 복합제품시스템 기술진화에 대한 정책, 경제, 그리고 사회적 요인의 영향을 종단적으로 서술하였다. 인터뷰에 기반한 1차 자료와 다양한 참고 문헌에 기반한 2차 자료를 복합적으로 활용한 결과, 원전 기술의 진화는 "원자력의 평화적 활용을 위한 응용연구"(1950년대~1960년대), "원자력 발전 시장 확산 - 1차 르네상스"(1970년대), "원자력 발전 안전성 제고와 후발국의 추격"(1980년대~2000년대 후반), 그리고 "원자력 발전 시장 2차 르네상스를 위한 안전성의 최우선화와 차세대 원자로 기술 개발"(2010년대 후반~현재)의 4단계에 걸쳐 진행되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 각 단계별 기술진화에 있어 각국의 에너지 정책과 원자력 발전 연구개발 투자와 같은 정책적 요인, 경기 사이클에 의한 전력 수요의 변화, 전력원 간 경쟁과 같은 경제적 요인, 그리고 안전성에 대한 사회적 수용과 환경오염에 대한 인식 등의 사회적 요인 등이 중요한 영향을 미쳤음을 확인하였다. 본 사례 연구는 보다 거시적인 관점에서 복합제품시스템의 기술진화를 고찰할 수 있는 이론적 접근방법을 제시하였다는 점에서 그 의의가 있다. 따라서 복합제품시스템을 육성하고자 하는 국가들은 기술개발 투자와 노력뿐 아니라 정책과 경제, 사회적 요인을 통합적으로 고려하여 이를 기술진화에 활용하기 위한 노력을 경주해야 할 것이다.

Innovation with strategic interaction is to overcome the technological uncertainty and to create co-evolution through competition among individuals or organizations for the acceleration of innovation. The concept of innovation in the past was concentrated on cooperation rather than on competition for the efficient management of limited resources. However, in order to minimize the technological uncertainty, we need an innovation on the basis of competition between organizations. Competition stimulates technological adaptability. It is on the analogy of complex system. This is to satisfy consumers' needs, to transform the resources into a technology, and to apply for the development of new products and new technologies. If the emergence of a new technology threatens present technology and develops into a new level of technology through inter-relation, it becomes a mutually supporting technologies. When theses effects are simultaneously realized, it is possible for firm to have strategical innovation and to create a mutually evolutionary development. Furthermore, when the competition among more than two individuals or two organizations continues towards the same direction, the mutual competition and cooperation can be expected to create a synergy effect. The competitive environment should be composed of R&D, production, and consumers' choice. This will lead to interaction among organizations through strategic competition and cooperation. Intra-firm competition and Inter-firm competition are required to exist together.
