As results of this project, various industries adopted the ASP applications of which the performance was enhanced, and then the competitiveness of the ASP vendors in Korea was increased. The purpose of this study is to make a strategy of the penetration into China market for ASP services which have competitive advantages. This study uses various research methods such as questionnaire survey, visiting SMEs in china and making interviews. This study shows the current status of Chines ASP market, the several cases of using ASP services, and questionnaire analyses(service recognition, service requirement and factors and infrastructure, business environment and supporting organizations etc) of ASP demand. And finally this study proposes several strategic considerations in entering China market and suggests several support policies for supporting Korean ASPs.

The circumstances surrounding world ports have changed rapidly and port competition to attract cargoes has been increasing fiercely. Specifically, deploying large container vessels resulted fewer port visits and strategic alliance among liner shipping companies. Recently, many studies have worked for improving port competitiveness. However, these studies were limited to evaluation of only port competitiveness and few studies suggested strategies for reinforcing port competitiveness. Although implications of these previous studies are practically available to build policies for port, there have been very few academic studies such as identifying port competitiveness and port selection with related attributes for reasonable evaluation and analysis. Therefore, this study aims to classify the existing studies, which dealt with port selection problem, based on basic structure that was suggested by Murphy (1992). Furthermore, the conceptual definition will be carried out by comparison analysis in terms of time of study, type of data and methodology and decision factor of each study.

A major problem in the adoption of advanced manufacturing systems such as F.M.S. (Flexible Manufacturing Systems) is the prerequisite economic justification process because of high investment needed for the acquisition and installation of F.M.S. While some of the benefits expected are readily quantifiable, others are very difficult or even impossible, using conventional method. Thus the investment in F.M.S. should be considered as a strategic decision rather than a tactical decision which concerns with only financial implications. In this paper we review papers on major justification techniques developed during thelast decade and identify the benefits of F.M.S. and describe the considerations in the justification of F.M.S. Also, we deal with the current and future research directions in justifying F.M.S.

Dokdo, a group of 33 small and rocky Islets, in the East Sea have been administered by Korea for years since 1953 and are currently occupied by Korean Police Unit. Located about 217Km off the eastern border of Korea and 87Km east of UIleung Island in North Gyeongsang Province. Situated in the East Sea of Korea, Dokdo itself has valuable strategic implications for Korea as well as another countries such as Russia, Japan, U.SA etc. The first historical testimonies to Dokdo were in Korean documents referring to it as a part of an independent island district known as Ulleung Island(Usanguk), which was incorporated into Silla Kingdom in 512 A.D. in '1454 Sejong Authentic History'. Historically, since at least 1881, the island has been called Dokdo by Koreans, meaning 'Rock Island' or 'Lonely Island'. Also Korea, which regained a full sovereignty and have exercised it for decades continuously, keeps a small police detachment on the Island. That is, Dokdo is under effective control of Korea until today. Therefore Dokdo, which is a problem that is related to our territory and sovereignty, is clearly a cluster of Islands of Korea.

In our study, we tried to develop and test a model that aids further understanding of the sources of customer loyalty in the 3G telecommunications service. In addition, as the 3G could be understood as an innovative telecommunications service, we assume that the impact of factors related service attributes affecting customer loyalty is moderated by the customer's innovativeness. We analyzed our research model using 3G service users' data in Korea. Our results will have significant strategic implications for firms in this highly competitive industry. Particularly, it can be useful for mobile carriers interested in customer retention management and supposed to deliver a new telecommunications service like the 4G service that is on the horizon.
