The research basis of this study are analyzed from the data abstracted from ¡§Annual Financial Report¡¨ and ¡§Corporate Annual Report¡¨ of public-listed corporations in financial industry in Taiwan for consecutive three years, with a total of 51. This research includes topics of the impact on organizational performance by involvement levels of training, the progressive effect, and possible obstacles of impacting organizational performance by two organizational characteristics, namely staff educational level and establishment of exclusive training unit. The result of the research is summarized below 1.Overall speaking, training has positive impact and progressive effect on organizational performance. The result shows positive relevance to training budget per human capital regardless of preceding or present year, in compliance of perspectives of long-term training effect. What worthwhile of reference is that time is crucial for skill acquisition and talent development. With consideration of staff career development plan, setting up life-time training plans in different stages can not only encourage staff to grow with corporations but also fully develop long-term training effect. 2.The higher staff educational level is, the more obvious training effect is for a corporation. Staff with higher educational level symbolizes stronger learning capabilities, and stronger tendency to accept training enhances the training efficiency. The result indicates that the higher staff educational level is, the greater impact on organizational performance is. 3.A broader research perspective shall be sought to explore the influence on training effect by setting up exclusive training unit. This research applies the methodology of setting up exclusive training unit to symbolize the training quality. Regression analysis indicates setting up such unit has little obstacles in training effect. The possible assumption goes to vast variety of reasons to influence training quality instead of any single organizational factor.

This thesis investigates Electronic System Level (ESL) design flow by implementing some applications using CoWare ESL tool, ConvergenSC. There are three focuses in this thesis: basic cell modeling, system platform design, and system level architecture exploration. In the basic cell modeling, we adopt the system level language, SystemC, to describe the abstract behavior of various modules in Transaction Level Modeling (TLM). In system platform design, we use the ESL tool to create system platforms of different architectures, mainly AMBA-based system platforms. In the system architecture exploration, we analyze the simulation results in different system platform architectures and present several strategies (memory allocation, ASIC design, DMA, Pipeline Scheduling) to improve the overall system performance in the application example of MP3 decoder. The rough estimation of power and area is also included in the system architecture exploration stage.

The purpose of this thesis is to develop a high power, compact all solid-state blue laser, which is applicable in micro machining, LIDA, underwater ranging, biochemical techniques and so forth. The passive Q-switching technique, which is known to be a low-cost and simple method to raise the laser peak power was employed in this thesis. In the mean time, the intracavity-doubling technique was integrated to achieve the non-linear frequency conversion for generating blue laser at low cost. Based on our research finding, the reabsorption loss due to thermal effect and a paucity of suppression at wavelength of 1064 nm on laser mirrors could cause the four-level oscillation at 1064 nm instead of three-level oscillation at 914nm. Improvement in heat dissipating system, and suppression at wavelength of 1064 nm on mirror coating has led to a success in developing a quasi-three-level blue laser with peak power of 114W at wavelength 473 nm. A modified rate equation model of the quasi-three level passively Q-switched blue lasers was developed as well, in which the influence of the re-absorption loss in the gain medium and its intracavity frequency doubling were both considered. The influence of reabsorption loss upon the laser power deduction was studied by numerical simulation in order to optimize the laser performance.

A sliding mode controller is proposed for controlling molten steel level in a mold of continuous casting machine in this thesis. The comparisons of dynamic response, control accuracy, and reaction to perturbation between proposed controller and PID controller currently used are also presented. A perturbation estimator is embedded in the sliding mode controller in order to enhance the robustness against model uncertainty, parameter variation, and external disturbance. The perturbation considered in this thesis includes variation of casting speed, variation of area of slide gate, time delay, variation of mold area, and Dead-Band etc.. In addition, the effects of adjusting the design parameter of the proposed controller on system¡¦s dynamics are also considered.

As we know that the process of visions, strategies, plans, actions, reviews and re-plans are essential to managing a company and strategies obviously are the main guideline of all. The product strategies in marketing are recognized as the starting point to various kinds of strategies in production, marketing, human resource, R&D, finance, information system and logistic¡Ketc. The distribution organization of Multi-Level Marketing companies (hereafter named ¡§MLM companies¡¨) is different from those of other industries because in addition to being a customer, the distributors are not only their sales representatives but also supervisors of the sales teams. Therefore, the characteristics of distribution organization must be particularly taken into account while MLM companies plan on their product strategies. If they know well about the characteristics, the products strategies can be successfully initiated and company goal can be easily achieved as a result. In this study the data was collected through questionnaires which focus on the following three main issues in order to compare the differences and similarities of consideration factors between MLM companies and distributors while MLM companies plan on their product strategies.

There are more and more foreign investments getting into Mainland China. China has a very big market with 12 billion people. The economics grows very fast in China, and it gathers so much fortune. Many corporations in Taiwan are also stretching their business development into Mainland China because those business people do believe they have advantages than other foreign investments such as the similar identification of language, culture, and working values. However, those corporations do not hire many local employees as middle or higher-level managers while they are really doing business in China. Actually, they found that employees do have different working values and thoughts which make corporations have to adapt their human resource policies. This study tries to identify if the local employees in China have good management competency, which is qualified to be the middle-level managers. This study is also trying to find out what kind of training programs are capable to help managers get different management competencies. The results of the study indicate that¡G 1. Leading skills and professional working skills are the most important management competency for the local middle-level managers in China. 2. The personal characteristics will influence Taiwanese managers to identify management competency of local middle-level managers in China, such as the level of education, serving department, position-level and industry-type. 3. Training methods for each management competency are listed in the context. The results are practical and hopefully are useful for corporations to refer to. This study has identified the important management competency of local middle-level mangers in China. However, the samples of this study did not cover various types of industries and gather from every political district in China. The following research is recommended to have more samples from different industries and get more samples from different political districts in China in order to deeply analyze the management competency of local employees in China.

In order to improving the performance for real-time application, current digital signal processors use VLIW architectures to increase the degree of instruction level parallelism (ILP). Two factors will limit the ILP, one is enough hardware resource for all parallel instructions. Another is the dependence relations between instructions. This thesis designs a VLIW architecture processing core called DVBTDSP molded by FFT algorithm and uses the software pipelining mechanism to schedule the loop to achieve the highest ILP degree when used to execute FFT butterfly operations. Furthermore, in order to provide the smooth data stream for pipeline operations, we design a mechanism to improve the modulo addressing, which will collect the discrete vectors into one continuous vector. The simulation results show that the DVBTDSP has double performance of the C6200 for the FFT processing, and has good performance for FIR, IIR and DCT algorithm computing.

China has experienced the rapid socioeconomic change that leads to the evolution of social and physical environment in urban neighborhoods. In recently built neighborhoods, residents lack mutual trust and a sense of community; the neighborhood open spaces have been improved but still do not function well for developing resident social capital. Social capital is a comprehensive concept for evaluating community development. The purpose of this study was to evaluate residents’ social capital in China’s urban context and to examine the relationships between social capital and neighborhood open spaces. The review of literature identified five interpersonal factors of social capital: social network, trust, security and safety, belongingness, and engagement, which were related to neighborhood physical environment. In the city of Guangzhou, two neighborhoods were selected as study fields and two hundred and fifty subjects were randomly selected in each neighborhood to participate in a questionnaire survey. More than 75% subjects returned questionnaires. Ten residents of them then participated in semi-structured interviews. Observation recorded residents’ activities in open spaces. Data were analyzed by statistical methods and domain analysis strategy. The results of statistical examinations demonstrated that residents living with a large number of neighborhood open spaces had higher degrees of social capital than residents lacking open spaces; residents using open spaces frequently developed higher degrees of social capital than residents using open spaces less; residents who were satisfied with their open spaces held higher degrees of social capital than those who were not satisfied with open spaces. Semi-structured interviews explained that well-designed open spaces attracted inhabitants to participate in outdoor activities, which encouraged social interaction among residents, enhanced their mutual trust, expanded social network, and strengthened belongingness to neighborhood. However, open spaces were found not to obviously improve resident engagement. Observations unveiled that a highly versatile and flexible outdoor space was the favorite place for residents of all ages.
