ABSTRACT

Countries have had fierce competition to preempt future technologies and markets using new and converging technologies of NT, BT and IT. National policies are implemented to secure converging researches but there are no specific standards and evaluation on attainment of their goals. The Converging Research Scoreboard is developed to evaluate the capacity and potential development for converging researches which is defined as the research of collaboration among sectors, academics, and technologies for problem solving. The Converging Research Scoreboard is indicator system to calculate the Converging Research Capacity Index and proposes specific indicator system by analyzing representative science and technology-related indicators based on goal and strategy of the master plan on national converging technology development. The Converging Research Scoreboard consists of 22 specific indicators in 4 sectors, that is converging research investment, converging research workforce and education system, achievement and performance of converging researches, and supporting system and infrastructure, respectively. Using the developed scoreboard, we applied it to the national converging researches evaluation. And also collect data from the U.S. and the EU for comparison with Korea, we propose each country value of the converging research investment index. Trace and reinforce indicators for continuous development and improvement in the converging research scoreboard for Korea to take a lead in converging researches, also we can expect activation and outcome spread of converging researches.
