Comparing technology education in the U.S. and U.K.

British and American discourses and experiences with respect to technology education are compared. Out of this comparison important issues are identified that have implications for the larger ongoing conversation on technology beyond these countries. They include the role of the state in establishing and validating the subject, the dual claims of technology literacy and technological capability, and dual curricular approaches — content and process.     

Determinants of technology cycle time in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry'

The focus of this study is to examine different factors that influence a firm's technology cycle time. The U.S. pharmaceutical industry is analyzed from 1977–1991. Specifically, the sample includes 21 firms that (a) primarily produce brand ethical drugs, (b) are publicly-owned companies, and (c) have pharmaceutical sales account for a substantial portion of company sales.
Our measure of faster technology cycle time is positively correlated to measures of the knowledge base level of firms, the breadth of firms' knowledge bases, size, and age; it is negatively correlated to advertising expenditures and the percent of US. firm sales to total sales. However, the most notable finding is that technology cycle time is significantly faster for firms that predominantly generate new knowledge internally, and slower for firms that rely more on external sources of new knowledge.     

基于面向对象的软件重用技术

在软件开发中使用软件重用技术可有效提高软件生产率、缩短软件开发周期,尤其对大型软件开发项目来说更是如此。由于面向对象的软件开发具有封装、继承等特性,因而它更适合支持软件的重用技术。本文所讨论的主要问题就是基于面向对象的软部件的重用技术。     

Fiber vs. vectoring: Limiting technology choices in broadband expansion

The upgrade of legacy infrastructure is a challenging undertaking in general. The underlying issues are especially prominent for telecommunications networks outside of urban areas. Using German micro-level data, we identify the structural determinants for fiber optics deployment and its extent. We also measure the role of technology competition from the existing infrastructures, VDSL-Vectoring and TV-Cable. In this setting and exploiting a natural experiment, a technologically restrictive policy as proposed by the European Commission is found to be ineffective in promoting fiber deployment. Policy interventions in the form of subsidies targeted at specific local infrastructure projects, however, raise the likelihood of fiber deployment by a substantial margin. A targeted, proactive policy approach is therefore needed to overcome structural and geographical disadvantages.     

新技术

一种应用于软包装市场的数码印刷技术德国Aurentum公司是一家专注于数码印刷技术的新兴高科技公司。Aurentum公司研发的Laser Sonic技术将对印刷行业带来强力冲击。由于软包装印刷油墨和基材对数码印刷工艺的要求极高,例如要求印刷质量稳定、油墨与金属箔附着牢固,以及良好的耐热性等,因此数码印刷技术一直没有打入软包装印刷市场。Laser Sonic数码印刷技术的出现,有望在软包装市场占有一席之地,一家全球著名的包装公司已经对Laser Sonic数码印刷技术完成测试,评级为非常好。

A technology valuation model to support technology transfer negotiations

The development and commercialization of advanced technologies will depend increasingly on efficient technology transfer and technology trading systems. This requires the development of technology markets or exchanges and hence a reliable technology valuation methodology. This paper develops a methodology for an objective and impartial valuation of fully developed technologies.
A web-based technology valuation system is developed with which interested users can make efficient and real-time evaluations of technologies.

技术民主化——从2012到2013的商业变局

你被技术改变了多少?你成了技术的一部分吗?你在利用技术还是技术在利用你?说了一年别人的商业故事,2012的最后一期"末日号",我们来谈谈"技术与你"。你已经被技术改变了多少?你成了技术的一部分或是附属品吗?你在利用技术还是技术在利用你?别误会,千万别以为我们是在说技术哲学——那些丰富高深的各类研究技术与人类社会发展关系的理论学     

Tasks in technology

Technology has long been recognised as a task-centred activity, but far too little work has been done to understand the nature of tasks and how they operate as teaching and learning tools. The problems surrounding Attainment Target 1 (AT1) in the national curriculum in England and Wales provide ample evidence of this. This paper explores — both in principle and through empirical research data — two central features of tasks ie pupil autonomy/teacher control and the role of the client or user of the end product. Very contrasting views about tasks emerge from the four key stages.
