从“平水韵”到《中华通韵》——许俊梁先生新作《中华通韵》读后

前些日子，临汾市诗词学会副会长许俊梁先生送给我一本他的新作《中华通韵》（上海文化出版社2012年出版，下称《通韵》）。这是“平水韵”发布790年后的今天，平水（临汾）人写的又一部韵书，我甚感惊喜。开卷展读，头脑里产生了一连串关于诗、韵的想法：诗文与音韵有什么关系？“平水韵”在诗词史上是什么地位？《中华通韵》好在哪里？诗词如何实现复兴之梦？等等。

做好国家财产的“看门狗”

2004年的第一场“审计风暴”,让中国的老百姓高兴了些时日。人们至今还记得掀起风暴的主角国家审计署长李金华的“豪言壮语”:“我们是国家财产的‘看门狗”’。科学勇士赫胥黎,为捍卫达尔文学说,高傲地宣称“我是达尔文的斗犬!”这两个以“犬”自喻的故事,有异曲同工之妙, 令人肃然起敬。

贝塔咖啡：相逢何必曾相识？

欢迎来到“互联网咖啡时代”!IT人开咖啡店确实很潮，大家明知道这里没钱赚，却前赴后继愣是往里；中。2009年正月十五，白鸦及其“同僚们”经过多次密谋，为IT人做了个贡献——他们跨界开了一家咖啡厅，用来作IT人的公共客厅和厨房。最早大家想叫“奥巴牛咖啡吧”，后因一些众所周知的原因被驳回，于是起了BetaCafe（贝塔咖啡）这个名字。     

“贵州交通云”建设思考

当前，贵州省交通基础建设正在如火如荼地进行，联络境内备县和邻省主要出口的高速公路网络可望2015年基本建成，届时全省公路路网结构将呈现一个巨大的质变。为了在此基础上以信息化促进贵州I现代交通运输业的全面发展，贵州省提出了建设“贵州交通云”的重大任务，这是除高速公路、国省干线、县乡公路、水运发展等建设任务之外贵州交通运输行业要做的“第五件大事”。本文就“贵州交通云”建设的一些重要问题作了初步探讨。     

“公共委”：建设服务型政府的创新之举

“科学泰斗，晶体动力学，英名誉中外；学海宗师，半导体物理，师表惠后学。”这幅挽联是黄昆院士一生的高度凝缩。黄先生的一生，“科研育人双辉煌”，“治学为人堪为师表”，作学问坚持“从第一原理出发”，干事业着眼“放手培育新人”，生活中“一向淡泊名利”……一件小事让人终生难忘：1955年先生已是中科院院士，理应拿薪300多元，先生见一位同事只拿50多元，他说，“我要吸烟，比你多拿6元钱，其余都交党费。”

The Future of Socionetwork Strategies

In the first stage of creating technological improvements for a democratic society, the leaders of the Society of Socionetwork Strategies have conducted statistical research on the effect of information and communication technology on the global economy. In the second stage, younger professors, based on their Positive Studies, have leapt into a multi-agent simulation of Grid Computing. In the third stage, a terra-bite scale of social data-collecting and the mining of large-scale data in our real world will be next. The next generation of scientists will share knowledge and intellectual inquiry in the fields of statistics, mathematics, and the social sciences with the help of computers connecting such scholars from all over the world.     

A Pricing Strategy with Consumption Externality when the Reference Group is Large

This paper provides an analysis of firms’ optimal prices when individual utility exhibits both material and other consumer effects. We construct a model and conduct an analysis in the following four steps: (1) By using a conjoint analysis of data, we set up a hierarchical Bayesian model and estimate its parameters, which are composed of individual utility functions. (2) We calculate the number of sales in each time period and derive the total sales throughout the given period. (3) We estimate the demand functions in the presence and absence of consumption externalities. (4) Finally, we calculate the profit functions and derive the optimal prices taking into account various product attributes. By applying our analysis to the book market of Japan, we find that the optimal price is lower when an externality is present than when absent. The intuition behind this result is that pricing low and selling a large number of books from an early stage increases the externality effect, yielding a higher profit for firms.     

A Statistical Analysis Between Consumer Behavior and a Social Network Service: A Case Study of Used-Car Demand Following the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami of 2011

When a large-scale disaster hits a community, especially a water-related disaster, there is a scarcity of automobiles and a sudden increase in the demand for used cars in the damaged areas. This paper conducts a case study of a recent massive natural disaster, the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami of 2011 to understand those car scarcities and demand in the aftermath of the catastrophe. We analyze the reasons for the increase in demand for used cars and how social media can predict people’s demand for used automobiles. In other words, this paper explores whether social media data can be used as a sensor of socio-economic recovery status in damaged areas during large-scale water-related disaster-recovery phases. For this purpose, we use social media communication as a proxy for estimating indicators of people’s activities in the real world. This study conducts both qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis. For the qualitative research, we carry out semi-structured interviews with used-car dealers in the tsunami-stricken area and unveil why people in the area demanded used cars. For the quantitative analysis, we collected Facebook page communication data and used-car market data before and after the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami of 2011. By combining and analyzing these two types of data, we find that social media communication correlates with people’s activities in the real world. Furthermore, this study suggests that different types of communication on social media have different types of correlations with people’s activities. More precisely, we find that social media communication related to people’s activities for rebuilding and for emotional support is positively correlated with the demand for used cars after the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. On the other hand, communication about anxiety and information seeking correlates negatively with the demand for used cars.     

Facebook Content Strategies and Citizens’ Online Engagement: The Case of Greek Local Governments

This paper analyzes the communication strategies used by Greek local governments through the utilization of Web 2.0 technologies, specifically Facebook, and the effectiveness of these strategies in relation to citizens’ online engagement. More specifically, it examines Facebook communication strategies and levels of citizens’ engagement. For this purpose, we conducted a content analysis on the active and official Facebook pages of local municipalities in Greece from January 2017 until the end of September 2017. Our results suggest a rise in the percentage of active Facebook pages maintained by local governments in comparison to our 2014 study. Our results also show that local governments in Greece are using Facebook in a predominantly top-down manner to promote events organized by the municipality and to push one-way information to citizens about their services and actions. Local authorities have, however, made significant progress in relation to posts that support transparency and accountability and that enhance or mobilize citizens’ participation. Our evaluation of local government Facebook strategies indicates that marketing the municipality to external public, such as tourists, and providing information about services are effective strategies that drive citizens’ online attitude expression (liking), engagement (commenting), and advocacy behavior (sharing). According to our analysis, local governments in Greece prefer the strategies that we found to be the least engaging. In addition, our study provides interesting details of how specific characteristics and modes of Facebook messages (photos, videos, URLs, hashtags, and mentions) impact on citizens’ engagement. Finally, our results provide valuable insights for social media managers in local government who aim to increase the impact of their municipal Facebook pages.     

A New Type of Computer Premium and Its Correlation to Individual Wages

This paper examines statistical correlations between workers?? income levels or wages, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The analyzed data set is micro data collected through the Web in 2008 and 2010 by the Research Institute for Socionetwork Strategies. This micro data estimates the rank correlation of income classes with respect to three types of ICT labor service. Next, multiple linear regression functions are estimated for the wage levels with respect to age, sex, years of continuous employment, and three types of ICT labor service over all industries and in the manufacturing industry or service industry. Finally, a multiple regression analysis is conducted for individual utility levels with respect to income, leisure, and three types of ICT labor service. The results show that, first, the coefficients of rank correlation for all pooled data are positive and statistically significant. Second, individual ICT labor services have positive effects on workers?? wage levels, and the partial regression coefficients are statistically significant. Third, the partial regression coefficient of personal computer operation time decreased but the partial regression coefficient of mobile computer operation time related to work increased drastically from 2008 to 2010. Fourth, the use of the personal and mobile computer shifts the utility function upward with respect to income and leisure.
