초록

기술융합을 통해 R&D 경쟁력을 확보함과 더불어, 융합의 정도를 측정하고 이를 기반으로 융합을 유도하기 위한 전략에 대한 관심도 함께 증대되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 출연연의 융합연구전략을 도출할 수 있는 데이터 기반 모형을 제시하였다. 우선적으로, 출연연 연구과제의 융합특성을 기술고유의 속성과 행위자의 행태 속성으로 구분하여, 각각의 대리변수(Rao-Stirling 지수, Herfindahl-Hirschman 지수)계산 방법을 고안하였다. 이들 대리변수를 두 축으로 출연연 융합맵을 설계하였으며, 이를 통해, 출연연 연구과제가 4개의 속성(Alliance-Intra, Alliance-Inter, Competition, Mission Oriented)으로 구분됨을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같이 설계된 융합맵을 기반으로 융합지수를 측정하여 출연연 간 30대 융합연구 가능영역을 도출하였다. 이러한 과정을 통해 출연연 연구과제의 기술융합 현상에 대한 보다 정확하고 객관적인 분석을 수행할 수 있으며, 이를 바탕으로 융합연구 추진을 위한 정책에 참조할 수 있는 유효한 가이드라인을 제공할 것으로 기대한다.

In conjunction with securing R&D competitiveness through technology convergence, there is a growing interest in the strategy to derive innovation based on the measurement of convergence. In this paper, we present a data-based model that suggests convergence strategies for the research projects of government research institutes (GRIs) in Korea. The convergence characteristics of the research projects are represented by inherent attributes of technology and behavioral attributes of actors. The measuring process of the proxy variables (Rao-Stirling and Herfindahl-Hirschman Indices) for each attributes are proposed. These two indices are used to construct the convergence diagram, through which the research projects of GRIs are distributed into four areas: AllianceIntra, Alliance-Inter, Competition, Mission-Oriented. Based on the convergence diagram proposed in this study the convergence index is measured to derive 30 convergence research areas of GRIs. As a result, we expect to provide appropriate guidelines for setting the policy direction of the convergence research projects.
