  • Innovation system is a framework concept that can be classified in many ways, namely-national, regional, sectoral and technological. Regardless of classification, all these systems have some common features and characteristics as a system. Before the innovation system concept, Mongolia developed and implemented a system to maintain nation's capacity to acquire, absorb and disseminate technologies like other countries. There were two important practices in the system development. Firstly, Mongolia modified and implemented a system "ShBOS" (meant "Invention and Innovative Idea System") that met its unique features to create innovative culture in the nation. Secondly, newly emerged ICT sector was quickly scaled up to be able to export technological products. The main objective of this article is to study modern experience of developing the national innovation system in Mongolia, assess current state of the system, innovation awareness and readiness, and carry out recommendations on its improvement with particular focus on the capacity of ICT sector as a pilot sector. The paper suggests that the above mentioned two achievements can be applied for developing the national innovation system through technological innovation system approach.

  • Owing to increasing demand of rare metals present in ICT products, it is necessary to promote the rare metal recycling industry from an environmental viewpoint and to prevent climate change. Despite the fact that information for toxic substances is partly indicated, a legal basis and an international standard indicating usage of rare metals is insufficient. In order to address this issue, a newly created study group of environment and climate change at the ITU (International Telecommunication Union) is doing research to develop methodologies for recycling rare metals from ICT products in an eco-friendly way. Under this group, the Republic of Korea has established two international standards related to rare metals present in ICT products. The first is 'Release of rare metal information for ICT products (ITU-T L.1100)' and the other is 'Quantitative and qualitative analysis methods for rare metals (ITU-T L.1101)'. A new proposal for recommending the provision of rare metal information through a label by manufacturers and consumer/recycling businesses has been approved recently and is supposed to be published later in 2016. Moreover, these recommendations are also being extended to IEC, ISO and other standardization organizations and a strategy to reinforce the ability for domestic standardization is being established in accordance with industrial requirements. This will promote efficient recycling of rare metals from ICT products and will help improve the domestic supply of rare metals.

  • Vehicles have increasingly evolved and become intelligent with convergence of information and communications technologies (ICT). Vehicle communications (VC) has become one of the major necessities for intelligent vehicles. However, VC suffers from serious security problems that hinder its commercialization. Hence, the IEEE 1609 Wireless Access Vehicular Environment (WAVE) protocol defines a security service for VC. This service includes Advanced Encryption Standard-Counter with CBC-MAC (AES-CCM) for data encryption in VC. A high-speed AES-CCM crypto module is necessary, because VC requires a fast communication rate between vehicles. In this study, we propose and implement an efficient AES-CCM hardware architecture for high-speed VC. First, we propose a 32-bit substitution table (S_Box) to reduce the AES module latency. Second, we employ key box register files to save key expansion results. Third, we save the input and processed data to internal register files for secure encryption and to secure data from external attacks. Finally, we design a parallel architecture for both cipher block chaining message authentication code (CBC-MAC) and the counter module in AES-CCM to improve performance. For implementation of the field programmable gate array (FPGA) hardware, we use a Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA chip. The entire operation of the AES-CCM module is validated by timing simulations in Xilinx ISE at a speed of 166.2 MHz.

  • With the advancement of information and communications technologies and the universal dissemination of smartphones, ICT-utilizing education is also getting the limelight. In the recent ICT-utilizing education, teachers and learners produce massive digital data by consulting massive information on the Internet, and the produced data is filtered in the process of education and utilized for the current and next educational programs. In order to construct the data well-suited for education from massive data available on the Internet, it is important to verify the quality of the educational data. To this end, we propose an educational website that can provide the data satisfying visual needs demanded by learners in terms of utilizing a digital curation system. In this paper, we also present a design and implementation of the website that non-ICT majors can easily use, which in turn enables them to conduct the education of creative personality utilizing image and video contents.

  • Electronic commerce (E-commerce) using virtual reality (VR) has the advantage of being able to purchase products without restrictions of time and location by overcoming the limitations of existing offline transactions. It is still a rudimentary but fast growing technology, and the use of E-commerce in VR is expanding. The barriers that consumers might face in utilizing E-commerce in VR is the relevance to Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) technology. Fundamentally, it requires Internet access and use through PCs or mobile devices such as smart phones. Because unlike off-line markets, it is difficult to determine the purchase patterns of customers, customer purchasing behavior analysis must be done using computer access records. In order to expand and develop E-commerce in VR in the future, learning ability should be improved through combining with artificial neural network by deep learning that is recently in the spotlight, and the ability to overcome errors need to be improved to enable use in various fields.

  • Smart hospitals involve the use of recent ICT (information and communications technology) technologies to improve healthcare access, efficiency, and effectiveness. Standardization in smart hospital technologies is crucial for interoperability, scalability, policy formulation, quality control, and maintenance. This study reviewed relevant international standards for smart hospitals and the organizations that develop them. Specific attention was paid to robotics in smart hospitals and the potential for standardization in this area. The study used online resources and existing standards to analyze technologies, standards, and practices in smart hospitals. Key technologies of smart hospitals were identified. Relevant standards from ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) were mapped to each core technology. Korea's leadership in smart hospital technology were highlighted. Approaches for standardizing smart hospitals were proposed. Finally, potential new international standard items for robotics in smart hospitals were identified and categorized by function: sampling, remote operation, delivery, disinfection, and movement tracking/contact tracing. Standardization in smart hospital technologies is crucial for ensuring interoperability, scalability, ethical use of artificial intelligence, and quality control. Implementing international standards in smart hospitals is expected to benefit individuals, healthcare institutions, nations, and industry by improving healthcare access, quality, and competitiveness.

  • 본 연구에서는 서방 선진국을 포함한 주요 아시아 국가의 사회적 취약계층을 위한 정보통신 접근성 향상 관련 정책들을 비교 분석하여 우리나라에서 시행되고 있는 정책 개선을 위한 시사점을 도출하고자 하였다. 연구 결과 대한민국은 아시아 국가에 비해 법과 표준이 잘 정비되어 실효성이 높은 반면 서방국가들과의 비교에서는 상대적으로 관련 정책들의 개선이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 급변하는 정보통신기술에 대한 새로운 정의들을 관련법이 명확히 반영하는데 한계를 보였으며 웹 및 모바일 애플리케이션 접근성 이외의 정책 및 표준 제정이 미흡하였다. 이에 대한 개선을 위해 법 제 개정 주기를 단축하고 정보통신 접근성 관련 시나리오를 사전에 연구 개발, 필요시 즉시 적용할 수 있도록 정부 산하의 전문연구기관을 설립하는 방법들을 고려해볼 수 있을 것이다. 사회취약계층은 정보통신에 대한 접근성을 보장받지 못하고 정보를 잘 활용하는 사람들과 구별되어 사회, 경제, 문화 등 삶의 많은 측면에서 차별을 받고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 차별 해소를 위해서는 정부의 지원과 관련 업계의 자발적인 참여 및 국민의 관심이 지속이 뒷받침 되어야 할 것이다.
