In this study, a national R&D report personal information protection system which can
protect researchers‟ personal information in national R&D reports and enhance the
utilization and spread of the reports has been proposed and developed. In addition, a
method to protect the personal information by detecting and deleting it in national
R&D reports using the proposed system has been suggested. It appears that this study
has established a cornerstone for sharing and linking national R&D research outcome
through the protection of personal information by using the proposed system. However,
a further study needs to be performed on how to cope with the problem that it takes a
long time to handle personal information in national R&D reports in some reports with
a great number of pages.
