지역적으로 분산되어 있는 지식 노동자들 간에 진보된 협업을 지원하기 위해서, 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅의 범위 내에서 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 특히 전통적인 회의실 기반의 협업 환경 (편리하지 못한 시청각 자료의 공유, 협업 도구의 어려운 조작 등)에서 이미 알려진 여러 문제점 들을 해결하기 위해, 개념적인 프레임워크들이 설계되었다. 실용적이고 편리한 협업 환경 구성을 위해, 본 논문에서는 에이전트 기반의 서비스 합성 모델을 개념적으로 설계한다. 사용자 입장에서 복잡한 협업 환경의 내부 구조를 알 필요 없이, 상위 수준의 작업 지시를 하면 협업 환경에서 주어진 작업을 수행하기 위한 서비스들을 자동적으로 발견하고, 연결하기 위한 모델을 설계한다. 본 서비스 합성 모델을 기반으로 다중 에이전트 시스템 기반의 다자간 협업 환경관리 툴킷을 개발하여, 직관적인 GUI를 통해 협업 노드 상의 다양한 서비스들을 설정, 운용하는 방법을 제공하고, 주어진 작업을 수행하기 위해 필요한 서비스들을 발견하고 연결하는 기능을 제공한다. 구현된 툴킷의 실용성을 실증하기 위하여, 개발된 툴킷을 기반으로 영상 회의를 위한 기능을 제공하는 협업 서비스들을 구현한다.

The challenges facing manufacturing companies today span across the industry, independent of company size or product. Especially, big manufacturers must overcome these challenges, and information technology (IT) collaboration with small and medium enterprises (SMEs) will play a major role in this effort. In this research, the strategy and way to promote IT collaboration between SMEs and large firms in heavy industries are proposed. A pre-consultation was performed to derive the strategy and way for the collaboration, and an IT collaboration system was developed reflection the results of pre-consultation. The IT collaboration system consists of two parts. One is ERP based on BPM for SMEs to standardize and visualize the entire business process from order placement to release. This system also provides their parent company with visibility into the status of orders and user can easily access the system on the web at a low price through cloud computing service. The other is interface part for data changes between large firms and SMEs. Thus far, this paper demonstrates the importance of strategy for the collaboration, and the applicability of IT collaboration system to elevate the speed and efficiency of business.

The purpose of this study is to develop collaboration scripts as an instructional means to facilitate argumentation in computer-supported collaborative learning, and to analyze their effects. To develop collaboration scripts for argumentation, researchers used activity theory as a conceptual framework and refined the design principles by design-based research. Using LAMS, collaboration scripts for argumentation were developed based on the ArgueGraph. To examine their effects, 72 participants were divided into two groups by internal scripts and randomly allocated to one of three external scripts. Applying mixed methods, researchers analyzed argumentation competence related to the cognitive aspect, examined self-efficacy related to the motivational aspect, and identified the factors influencing collaborative learning processes and outcomes. Researchers found that the internal script is a critical factor to determine the dimensions, degrees, and duration of improvement in argumentation competence. That is, learners with higher internal scripts improved highly in the quality of single arguments, while learners with lower internal scripts improved continuously in the quality of argumentation sequences. The effects of the external scripts varied with the internal script levels and supporting periods. Besides, collaboration scripts for argumentation had positive effects on learners' self-efficacy, and learners with higher internal scripts had better self-efficacy. The factors influencing collaborative learning processes and outcomes showed different results depending on the learning context. Therefore, when scripting learner's interaction in CSCL, researchers should design the scripts adaptable to a natural context of activities.

This paper tries to extend the conventional conceptual framework of the Internet of Things (IoT) so as to reify an advanced pervasive IoT-community collaboration concept, which is called the process-aware Internet of Things. The extended conceptual framework is embodied as a referential architecture that can be a standardized reference model supporting the conceptual integration of the Internet of Things and the process awareness. The extended referential architecture covers the full range of the architectural details from abstracting the process-aware behavioral semantics to reifying the IoT-process enactments. These extended framework and architecture ought to be the theoretical basis for implementing a process-aware IoT-community computing system supporting process-aware collaborations of Things in pervasive computing environments. In particular, we do point up that the proposed framework of the process-aware Internet of Things is revised from the Internet of Things framework announced in ITU-T SG13³ Y.2060 [26] by integrating the novel concept of process awareness. We strongly believe that the extended conceptual framework and its referential architecture are able to deliver the novel and meaningful insight as a standardized platform for describing and achieving the goals of IoT-communities and societies.

This study attempted to investigate changes in collaboration structure for each stage of national Research and Development (R&D) in the artificial intelligence (AI) field through analysis of a co-author network for papers written under national R&D projects. For this, author information was extracted from national R&D outcomes in AI from 2014 to 2019. For such R&D outcomes, NTIS (National Science & Technology Information Service) information from the KISTI (Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information) was utilized. In research collaboration in AI, power function structure, in which research efforts are led by some influential researchers, is found. In other words, less than 30 percent is linked to the largest cluster, and a segmented network pattern in which small groups are primarily developed is observed. This means a large research group with high connectivity and a small group are connected with each other, and a sporadic link is found. However, the largest cluster grew larger and denser over time, which means that as research became more intensified, new researchers joined a mainstream network, expanding a scope of collaboration. Such research intensification has expanded the scale of a collaborative researcher group and increased the number of large studies. Instead of maintaining conventional collaborative relationships, in addition, the number of new researchers has risen, forming new relationships over time.

A collaboration supporting system, which enables multi-user collaboration and communication in Internet environment, is being a new indispensable tool to compete and collaborate with business peers. A collaboration supporting system in distributed environment requires scalable and open system architecture to rapidly deploy a new technology and trends. In this paper, we propose such a collaboration supporting system where communication API is using XML(Extended Markup Language)-based SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol)protocols, which Is independent on programming language and platform. In our system, server components are developed with EJB(Enterprise Java Beans). System analysis, design, and development are based on UML(Unified Modeling Language).

IT기술의 발전으로 e비즈니스가 확대됨에 따라 외부 기업과의 협업이 강조되고 있다. 일반적으로 협업에 대한 연구는 비즈니스적, 기술적 표준을 어떻게 설정하는가에 대한 방법론을 중심으로 다루어지고 있다. 하지만 현실적으로 시장 환경에서 협업은 기업의 힘에 의해 결정된다. 이러한 시각에서 본 연구는 기업이 힘의 균형을 이루고 있을 때, 효과적으로 동등한 수준의 협업을 이끌어 낼 수 있는 방안을 살펴보고 이를 적용한 사례를 소개하고자 한다.

기업은 경쟁우위를 확보하고 지속적인 성장을 이끌기 위해 기술개발을 위한 R&D 투자 및 혁신활동에 집중해야 한다. 그러나, 기업의 이러한 활동은 언제나 성공하는 것이 아니며, 기술개발의 위험도가 높고 이익의 전용가능성이 낮거나 기업내부의 역량이나 자원이 부족할 경우, 기업의 혁신활동은 저해되기 쉽다. 이러한 상황에서 외부파트너와의 연구협력은 이러한 문제들을 해결할 수 있는 좋은 전략이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 한국의 제조업체를 대상으로 각 기업이 기술혁신을 위해 연구협력을 선택할 때 어떤 요인들이 연구 협력결정에 영향을 미치는지를 분석하였다. 이를 위해서 과학기술정책연구원(STEPI)에서 수행한 기술혁신조사 데이터를 활용하였으며, 분석결과 기업의 규모가 클수록, 과거의 연구 협력경험이 많을수록, 하이테크 기업에 속한 기업일수록 연구협력을 통해 제품혁신을 수행하는 것으로 나타났으며, 혁신실패의 위험성, 자금조달의 어려움, 조직내부의 역량부족, 외부환경요인 등과 같은 혁신활동저해요소들은 제품혁신활동 수행시 외부와의 연구협력에 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다.

Industry convergence is the inexorable trend, which has become a fundamental concept to understand the industrial dynamics and to develop business strategies. However, most of the previous studies on convergence have dealt with the issues at the macro-level (technology- or industry-level), little attention has been paid to the analysis of convergence at the micro level (firm-level). Recognizing that firms are the principal agents that develop fusion technologies, it is encouraged to help firms to work together for technology convergence. Therefore, this research proposes a collaboration model for SMEs, since SMEs tend to have novel ideas and are flexible enough to make fusion-technology. To do this, we conducted a survey for Korean SMEs and analyzed their successful cases of collaboration, which was used as a basis to develop the model. The research results will help develop strategy or policy to promote the collaboration between SMEs and ultimately to make a fusion-technology.
