As engineering is required to answer directly and more heartily than before the requirement of society and markets, we want to answer the following questions. What kind of open innovation channels exist, and how can these channels operate as a knowledge funnel to conquer the growth limit of capitalism in the 4th industrial revolution? At first, we built up the concept model of open innovation engineering from a conceptual experiment and attempted to prove this model by literature reviews. Second

The purposes of the study are to estimate inbound tourism demand and to analyze the effect of the Korean Wave and Economic indicators on it. For these purposes, we examined the influence of Korean Wave, GDP, CPI and exchange rate on inbound tourism demand for foreign tourists from the USA, China, Japan and Hong Kong to Korea. In order to measure the Korean wave, the export amount of Hallyu related contents exported to each of the four countries is used. GDP means the GDP of each of the four coun

In today’s low-growth business environment, efficiency management is becoming more important to improve corporate sustainability. In a chain store, the efficiency of individual stores must be well managed to improve the efficiency of the entire enterprise. To do this, it is important to measure the efficiency of individual stores and to find factors that affect efficiency. The main purpose of this study is to find out the factors affecting the efficiency of chain stores and to analyze the result

In this paper, the effects of novelty-seeking and food involvement on food tourism behavior and the effect of food tourism behavior on intention to revisit the Jeonju Bibimbab Food Festival are studied. Additionally, the effects of attitude, anticipated emotions, perceived behavioral control, and subjective norms on intention to revisit through desire are identified. Three hundred and forty questionnaires are used for the study. These are analyzed with partial least squares structural equation m

In 2006, China fully opened up its financial markets. This means that the banking industry is facing a more severe competitive environment, which requires not only the operational efficiency of the bank but also customer satisfaction for the quality of service. As the reform and opening up policy started from the eastern costal areas in China, there are differences in economic development levels by the region, and so are the levels of financial development. Therefore, it is necessary to study th

The purpose of this paper is to study consumer acceptance of the Home Energy Management System, which is the next generation electronic management system that the Korean government plans to implement in households. The Home Energy Management System is a critical device in maximizing the efficiency of electric energy consumption for each household by using a smart grid. Because it can visualize real-time price information on the electricity, households can easily monitor and control the amount of

The job-shop scheduling problem (JSSP) is known to be NP-hard. Due to its complexity, many metaheuristic algorithm approaches have arisen. Ant colony metaheuristic algorithm, lately proposed, has successful application to various combinatorial optimisation problems. In this study, an ant colony optimisation algorithm with parameterised search space is developed for JSSP with an objective of minimising makespan. The problem is modelled as a disjunctive graph where arcs connect only pairs of opera

The purpose of this research is to analyze efficiencies of project management offices (PMOs) using the data envelopment analysis (DEA). As the post-analysis of the efficiency analysis, the causal factors affecting the efficiencies of PMOs were tested. 87 PMOs were used to analyze their efficiencies. In the constant returns-to-scale model, 11 PMOs were completely efficient and 76 PMOs were inefficient. In the variable returns-to-scale (VRS) model, 26 PMOs were efficient and 61 PMOs were inefficie

Results of the CDI and QODA evaluation developed by OECD showed that Korea’s aid presented low efficiency compared to other aid countries. However, these methods represent a qualitative assessment of the effectiveness of each country’s aid and are not applicable to the evaluation of actual aid projects and the identification of causes of the inefficiency. Therefore, it is needed to grasp the reality of Korea’s aid and to identify the cause of aid inefficiency to set up a better ODA policy. The p

Non-ferrous metals are widely used as basic materials in various industrial fields, and zinc is a metal that is produced and used next to iron, aluminum, and copper. In this study, DEA (data envelopment analysis) was applied to measure the efficiency of 43 zinc smelters in three countries in East Asia: Korea, China, and Japan. The constant returns to scale (CRS) and the variable returns to scale (VRS) models, and the slack-based measure (SBM) were used for the analysis. As a result of the effici

The purpose of this study is to verify the existence of congestion in Korean hospitals, to identify the causes of congestion, and to suggest directions for efficiency improvement of hospitals. The result showed that congestion occurred in 71.90% of 1185 hospitals. In addition, it was found that hospital specialization has a negative effect on congestion. In other words, the higher the hospital specialization, the lower the overall congestion rate of the hospital. More specifically, the specializ

The Home Energy Management System (HEMS) is a system for the efficient electric power consumption of each household. It can provide real-time electricity cost information according to electricity consumption, and households can immediately control their consumption of electricity. In this study, we analyzed the effects of the HEMS on the stability of demand for electric power. To do this, we analyzed the causal relationship between the amounts of electric power generation and consumption, from t

항공산업을 중심으로 도입된 수익관리(revenue management or yield management)는 서비스산업의 특성인 소멸성 자산을 적시에 적절한 가격으로 고객에게 제공함으로써 최대한의 이익을 창출하려는 경영기법이라고 할 수 있다(Lieberman, 1993; Quain et al., 1999). 이러한 수익관리 개념은 호텔 및 여행업 등 유사한 상품 특징을 갖는 다양한 분야로 점차 확대되어(윤문길, 김후곤, 윤덕영, 2002), 최근에는 레스토랑 산업에서도 관심을 받게 되었다(Kimes and Chase, 1998; Kimes, 1999; Kimes and Thompson, 2004).

Most global zinc firms consist of multiple refineries with various production capacities. However, it is known that efficiency and Bonus Zn are mostly dependent on a firm’s production capacity. Thus, it is important to examine whether there is knowledge transfer of efficiencies and Bonus Zn among refineries within the same company, even if their production capacities are quite different. The Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is used to measure efficiency scores of forty-two zinc refineries. To exa
