A Study on Institution Improvement Plans for the National Supercomputing Joint Utilization System in South Korea

purpose of this paper is to discover institutional gaps in the supercomputing joint utilization system that the government is actively promoting as an alternative to the problem of shortage of domestic supercomputing resources. The institutional gaps were discovered by examining the current status of laws, top-level plans, and operating guidelines related to the current joint utilization system and matching them with problems or issues that need to be resolved socially. The improvement plan for the institutional gaps was derived at a level that can be reflected in the operating guidelines of the Specialized Center and Unit Center so that the performing subject constituting the joint utilization system can directly participate and solve it. In the future, for the effective operation of the joint utilization system, we plan to promote the domestic market through the diffusion of research results and secure external technological competitiveness by reflecting the contents of institution improvement.
