During the transformation of the agro-technology extension in rural China, many new Policy experiments are emerging to rebuild the lost linkages and to improve technology transfer with the system and among systems. Applying the Triple Helix Model of academy-agriculture-government relations, this paper explores a new pattern of technology transfer with the case of BaojiCity. The authors interpret the mechanism of 'Courtyards for Agro-experts', as well as the comparison between different types of courtyards. This article concludes that the Triple Helix in the agro-sector improves technology transfer and accelerates knowledge-based regional development. In the interest of farmers there should also be concern over reducing inequity the reform.

The main objective of this study is to test hypotheses by empirical study on the technology transfer from a national institute to small and medium sized enterprises(SMEs) in the Korean electronic devices industry. The important findings of the study are as follows: First, the success of the technology transfer from national institute to SMEs depends on the character of the project manager such as research experience and academic degree level. Second, the success of the technology transfer is related to the nature of the research project, especially to the technology life cycle stage but insignificantly to the amount of R&D fund and duration. Third, another success factor for technology transfer is the joint technology development between institute and SMEs, which is due to the possibility of early commercialization of the technology development project. Fourth, the hypothesis about the relationship between the project selection and evaluation results and technology transfer success is not statistically supported.

The largest and oldest science and technology park in Korea, Daedeok Innopolis has 29 government research institutes and 5 universities. Every year these research organizations of Daedeok Innopolis are generating more than 7 thousands technology patents and the government tries to commercialize technologies through simple technology licensing to private companies. To facilitate the technology transfer, the new mechanism named research institute spin-offs has been exclusively granted to Daedeok Innopolis in 2006. Since then, the Innopolis Foundation has put lots of effort to activate the mechanism in order to create more commercialization of R&D results from government research institutes (GRIs). This study is undertaken to review the interactive environment of the technology transfer in Daedeok Innopolis and study the unique mechanism which enables Daedeok Innopolis to proceed technology transfer effectively and in particular, looks at the role which can be played by the Innopolis Foundation as a government agent of the policy aimed at facilitating commercialization of using technologies developed by GRIs.

For many years Korean railway industry has experienced substantial growth based on foreign advanced technology. Recently some problems was clearly stated on effective management, practical use and transfer of the railway technology. This paper presents some results of the study on necessary requirements of the expert system for railway technology transfer. We propose a general plan to develop the expert system and the contents on railway technology transfer in the text of this article.

This paper reports the importance of basic electrical and electronic technology transfer compatible with domestic environment. At first, several kind of problems in technology transfer was issued in view of domestic environment. For example, the differences between France & Korea were illustrated in power system, signalling, electronics including computer system. And then technology tree was showed based on technology transfer strategy.

This study analyzed statistically the determinants that affect the royalties of knowledge technology transfer, which accounts for a considerable portion of university technology transfer. As knowledge technology transfer certainly includes a move from tacit knowledge from one side to the other side per se, the scope of knowledge technology transfer is unclear and numerical information of technology transfer, such as research fund scale, which is used widely in previous studies, cannot be used in the analysis. Therefore, this study focused on the researcher characteristics and included its explanatory variables in the present study. In addition, it included the technical characteristics of the knowledge transferred and the characteristics of the contracting company. The knowledge maturity calculated from the appointment year and contract date positively affects the technology royalties, but work experience and patent activity of the researcher are not statistically significant. Statistically significant differences in the technology royalty according to the type of technology transfer and the company location were observed, but there was no meaningful change in the technology royalty depending on the technical field and company business scale.

This study aims to understand the importance of commercialization of research and development projects and examines key factors that allow successful technology transfer and commercialization. Given the characteristics of the railway research project, and assuming that R&D input factors would vary depending on the technology readiness level and the degree of research convergence, this study analyzes the moderating effect of each R&D input factor on technology transfer and commercialization to determine their eventual impact. Through this study, it was found that it was necessary to proceed to technology transfer and commercialization of the national research and development projects via strategic workforce composition and allocation of research funding given the subjects and development goals of R&D projects.

The On-line Electric Vehicle (OLEV) is an electric transport system in which the vehicle's power is transferred wirelessly from power lines underneath the surface of the road. Advantages of the OLEV include reducing battery size and cost to about 20 percent of that of conventional battery-powered electric vehicles, thereby minimizing the vehicle's weight and price, as well as the cost of charging the system. In this paper, we introduce a wireless power transfer mechanism to maximize the electrical performance of the power transfer system. Power transfer capacity, power transfer efficiency, and magnitude of leakage in the electromagnetic field (EMF) are analyzed, and the optimization methodology of the design parameters is discussed.

Remarkable progress has recently been made in embryo transfer technology, resulting in the birth of IVF and nuclear transfer offsprings in swine. However, further progress of the technology to (I) make a safe, effective and economic estrual-cycle synchronization compound, (2) regulate each step of sperm capacitation (3) induce monospermic fertilization, (4) in vitro grow and mature oocytes, (5) fertilize the oocytes efficently, (6) culture the oocytes to the blastocyst stage in defined media, (7) produce multiply copies of embryos with superior genetic merit, (8) preselect the sex of these superior offsprings, and (9) preserve embryos by freezing and storage in liquid nitrogen is required before this promising technology is applied routinely to swine for practical use.

Technology transfer from public research institutes is receiving an ever increasing importance in today's fast growing economy. Many factors have been cited as influencing the transfer performance. This study is focused on the strategy of institutes which is characterized by technology strategic factors and organizational/institutional factors. Methodologically, the technology strategy is represented by the information contained in applied patents, and the performance of technology transfer is indicated by the number of licensing contracts and royalty income. To further improve the contribution of public research institutes through technology transfer, I argue that individual institutes become more specialized in specific field and become more open to collaboration. It is also recommended that public research institutes gather together since it is easy to form the consortium of technology licensing office and it is not necessary to be located near the industrial field.
