COVID-19가 전 세계를 강타하면서 각 국가는 대혼란에 빠졌다. 전 세계 화물교역은 80 % 이상이 해상운송을 통해 이루어지고 있어 화물과 여객을 포함한 해상운송업은 COVID-19의 큰 영향을 받는 산업으로 예측되었다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 코로나 팬데믹 (Coronavirus Pandemic) 발생 전후로 아시아 주요 항만 컨테이너 항구의 팬데믹 전후 운영효율성을 분석하는 것이다. 항만의 운영효율성을 분석하기 위해서 자료포락분석(DEA)을 이용하였다. 본 연구의 분석 기간은 5년(2016~2020년)으로 2016년, 2017년, 2018년, 2019년을 코로나 이전으로 하고, 2020년을 포스트 코로나 시대로 설정하였다. 또한, 분석 대상으로는 아시아 상위 10개 항구 중 동종 DMU의 DEA 요건을 충족시킨 상하이, 광저우, 선전, 닝보-저우산, 부산 및 싱가포르 총 7개 항구를 선택하였다. DEA의 CCR 및 BCC 모델의 결과는 몇 가지 비효율성이 확인되었음에도 COVID-19 팬데믹 발생 시점에서 몇 개월 이후부터는 전반적으로 운영효율성이 코로나 이전 몇 년 동안보다 상대적으로 높았음을 확인하였다. 하지만 일부 항만 (부산, 광저우)의 경우에는 더욱 나은 운영효율성을 위해서 항만의 규모와 운영의 기술적 능력 등을 제고 할 필요가 있다.

PURPOSES : Arterial work zones, particularly at signalized intersections, have several characteristics and effects different from freeways. This paper presents three significant work zone effects on signalized intersections: (1) saturation headway change (saturation flow rate change), (2) green time (g/C ratio) change, and (3) progression speed degradation impacts on bandwidth performance. METHODS : Both saturation flow rate reduction and g/C reduction were selected as the work zone impact variables for a signalized intersection, while bandwidth capacity reduction was chosen to measure the impact of work zones on arterials. The authors established a statistical model and normalized g/C table to estimate saturation headways and the g/C ratio at signalized intersection work zones based on the work intensity, pavement condition, ledge presence, turn percentages from shared lanes, and number of closed exclusive turn lanes. In addition, the dynamic bandwidth capacity and bandwidth solution space change based on the progression speed were introduced in this study. RESULTS : A normalized g/C ratio distribution was developed to estimate both the non-work zone and work zone g/C ratios under different work zone configurations. The results of the estimated work zone capacity using the work zone saturation headway model and the g/C ratio distribution showed that the estimated capacity reduction ranged from 32.78%~2.93%. In addition, arterial dynamic bandwidth and its capacity were both critically influenced by the progression speed. CONCLUSIONS : The proposed model and method will help practitioners understand the factors that cause a decrease in the saturation flow rate and g/C and influence progression quality on the urban arterial street due to work zones. Moreover, the proposed model and method can guide the calibration of simulation tools to properly represent the resulting capacity effects of work zones on arterial streets.

Evaluating the operational efficiency of electric vehicle charging stations (EVCSs) is important to understand charging network evolution and the charging behavior of electric vehicle users. However, aggregation of efficiency performance metrics poses a significant challenge to practitioners and researchers. In general, the operational efficiency of EVCSs can be measured as a complicated function of various factors with multiple criteria. Such a complex aspect of managing EVCSs becomes one of the challenging issues to measure their operational efficiency. Considering the difficulty in the efficiency measurement, this paper suggests a way to measure the operational efficiency of EVCSs based on data envelopment analysis (DEA). The DEA model is formulated as constant returns of output-oriented model with five types of inputs, four of them are the numbers of floating population and nearby charging stations, distance of nearby charging stations and traffic volume as desirable inputs and the other is the traffic speed in congestion as undesirable one. Meanwhile, the output is given by the charging frequency of EVCSs in a day. Using real-world data obtained from reliable sources, we suggest operational efficiencies of EVCSs in Seoul and discuss implications on the development of electric vehicle charging network. The result of efficiency measurement shows that most of EVCSs in Seoul are inefficient, while some districts (Nowon-gu, Dongdaemun-gu, Dongjak-gu, Songpa-gu, Guro-gu) have relatively more efficient EVCSs than the others.

Modern investment theory has empirically proved that stock returns can be explained by several factors such as market risk, firm size, and book-to-market ratio. Other unknown factors affecting stock returns are also believed to still exist yet to be found. We believe that one of such factors is the operational efficiency of firms in transforming inputs to outputs, considering the fact that operations is a fundamental and primary function of any type of businesses. To support this belief, this study intends to empirically study the relationship between firm efficiency and stock price performance. Firm efficiency is measured using data envelopment analysis (DEA) with inputs and outputs obtained from financial statements. We employ cross-efficiency evaluation to enhance the discrimination power of DEA with a secondary objective function of aggressive formulation. Using the CAPM-based performance regression model, we test the performance of equally weighted portfolios of different sizes selected based upon DEA cross-efficiency scores along with a buy & hold trading strategy. For the empirical test, we collect financial data of domestic firms listed in KOSPI over the period of 2000~2016 from well-known financial databases. As a result, we find that the porfolios with highly efficient firms included outperform the benchmark market portfolio after controlling for the market risk, which indicates that firm efficiency plays a important role in explaining stock returns.

PURPOSES: This study evaluates the efficiency of snow removal operation resources using data envelopment analysis (DEA). The results of this study can help decision-making strategies, especially for resource allocation for snow removal works on national highways. METHODS: First, regional road management offices (DMUs) for efficiency evaluation were set up, and a database (for years 2012-2016) for analysis was formed. Second, DEA was carried out by selecting input and output variables based on the constructed database. Lastly, based on the results of the DEA, the efficiency of each regional road management office was evaluated. In addition, the potential for future improvement was determined. RESULTS: The results showed that there was a large variation in efficiency of snow removal operation resources by regional offices. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study imply that the evaluation of efficiency for snow removal operation resources is important when decisions related to snow-removal strategies are made by road management offices.

PURPOSES: The goal of this study is to analyze the operational efficiencies of special roundabouts using simulated programs. METHODS: This study primarily focuses on comparing the delays and traffic flow disturbances occurring at special roundabouts. In this study, the operational efficiencies of 450 scenarios (5 roundabout types × traffic volumes × directional ratios × measures) are analyzed according to the corresponding delays and traffic flow disturbances using VISSIM and SSAM. RESULTS : The main results are as follows: 1) the Hamburger roundabouts are determined to yield the least common-type delays, 2) the amount of delays at Turbo and Flower roundabouts with respect to relatively increased right-turn-type delays, in addition to the amount of delays at the Left-turn slip-lane roundabout with respect to relatively increased left-turn-type delays, are found to be reduced as compared to the common-type delays. Lastly, common- and increased right-turn-type traffic flow disturbances at the Turbo roundabout and increased left-turntype traffic flow disturbances at the Left-turn slip-lane roundabout are determined to be the most infrequent. CONCLUSIONS: This study comparatively analyzes five roundabout types: standard, Flower, Turbo, Hamburger, and Left-turn slip-lane. The effectiveness of roundabouts can increase according to given traffic volume, directional ratio, and measure of effectiveness.

Continued efforts to build up Safety Management System(SMS) and to improve its efficiency in airports, to which customers have direct access, are taken for granted due to continuous development of the aviation industry in both quantity and quality and rapid growth of air transportation market. This thesis proposed efficient operation methods of SMS for domestic airport organizations including Incheon International Airport(IIA), the largest airport in South Korea, aiming at strengthening aviation safety from the perspective of airport operators who play a pivotal role in service provider SMS. Those are consolidation of the existing safety management organizations and various improvements to promote voluntary incident reporting system. To draw a proposal for the improvements, conducted a research on domestic safety management status, carried out an analysis on operating conditions and did a research on ICAO regulations, domestic legal system as well as statistics data. Relevant studies and researches were also gathered and analyzed. A search for further improvements can also help increase operational efficiency and promoting a higher-level of safety awareness among operators can establish mature safety culture at airports.

PURPOSES: Regional offices of the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs use a computerized system called KAMIS so as to manage road equipment systematically. Road agencies can record number of operating days by equipment, actual working hours, accumulated operating hours (or distance) by equipment, and operating cost. However, KAMIS does not provide critical information, although it is strongly related to efficient road management equipment operation. In other words, road agencies do not know whether they have sufficient equipment to handle their actual work. METHODS: Therefore, this study suggests a methodology to evaluate for operational efficiency of road management equipment using analytical hierarchy process(AHP). First of all, estimated weights related criteria can be produced by AHP, and then use operational history by pieces of equipment. RESULTS: Results show that importance of management work can differ from weather conditions through five areas. CONCLUSIONS: Commonly, this results can imply to help save money for the purchase and maintenance of road management equipment, and they would improve the functional performance of KAMIS.

DEA모형에 의한 운영효율성 분석결과로부터 얻을 수 있는 시사점은 다음과 같다. 정부의「산지유통종 합평가」제도의 개선을 통해 사업실적 위주의 규모화ㆍ전문화ㆍ조직화에 초점을 맞춰 이루어져온 것을 경 영효율성 위주로 전환해야 할 것이다. 산지유통센터의 목적도 농산물의 부가가치를 높이는 것이고 이를 평가할 수 있는 지표를 개발하여 평가함으로써 농산물 산지유통센터 구성원들에게 실질적인 인센티브와 다양한 양질의 서비스를 제공할 수 있도록 해야 할 것이다. 그리고 농산물 산지유통센터가 종합평가에 경 영의 중점을 두고 있기 때문에 이를 개선, 보완하기 위해 유통부가가치를 평가할 수 있는 지표의 개발, 평가에 대한 고객만족도 지표의 개발, CRM(Customer Relationship Management)시스템 도입을 통한 고객관계 유지 실적을 평가할 수 있는 지표의 개발 등도 추진되어야 할 것이다.

한국도로공사는 40년간 육상교통의 대동맥인 고속국도의 건설 및 운영 대부분을 담당하고 있다. 90년대 이후부터 민영에 의한 고속국도가 건설 및 운영중에 있다. 하지만, 2001년부터 2008년까지 최소운영수입 보장금 명목으로 중앙정부와 지방자치단체가 2001년-2008년까지 민자사업자에게 1조 5,896억원을 지급하였다. 이와 같은 현실에서 한국고속국도 대부분의 건설 및 운영을 담당하고 있는 한국도로공사의 비용구조 파악이 중요한 의미가 있을 것이다. 분석결과 노동과 자본 운영이 높은 교차탄력성을 나타내 높은 대체성이 존재하며, 자본과 운영은 자본의 상승(고속국도 연장 증가)과 고속국도 노후화에 따른 대체성은 다소 존재하지만, 낮은 대체 탄력성을 나타내고 있다. 한국도로공사는 대체적으로 투입요소가 효율적으로 이용되고 있으며, 노동과 자본 운영의 대체탄력성이 높게 나타나 한국도로공사는 전략적으로 아웃소싱 활성화(영업부문)와 영업과 건설(유지관리 포함) 재무적 분리가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 고속국도 운영기관의 통합과 함께 하이패스를 활성화 시킨다면, 보다 우리나라 고속국도의 운영의 효율성은 상승시킬 것으로 판단된다.
