A Study on Site Selection Decision Making for Multinational Tanning Industry¡¦s Overseas Vertical Integration Investment¡V a Model from A CompanyJames, Jyh-Haw 23 July 2009 (has links)
In the decade of 1990s, many traditional industries of Taiwan, especially those of labor intense type, began to transfer their production lines to off shore sites for their foreign direct investment. Many of them were following their customers¡¦ migrations to China, Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries based on the need of upgrading their competence through supply chain integration and taking advantages of the abundance in human resource and lower labor cost in these countries. This study applies tanning industry A company as a model which became a multi-national corporate (MNC) by establishing its first tannery in Taiwan during the 1980s, building up its second factory in China in 1998 and then opening its third one in Vietnam for mass production in 2004. Concerning the environmental and water conservation issues, the three tanneries of A company utilize a production process using wet blue instead of salted hides that most tanneries use as raw material to make finished leather as products. In the past few years, the volatility in hide market price, over capacity in the tanning industry worldwide, and customer¡¦s bargaining power increase made a dramatic fall in the margins of tanning industry. Suffering from the low margins, A company is seeking the possibility of vertical integration in raw material supply by investing a beam house tannery with slated hide as raw material to make wet blue for its three tanneries producing finished leather. This study focused on the critical factors in the site selection decision making for A company¡¦s overseas wet blue tannery investment.
In this study, the high level management members of A company and selected experts from other tanneries were interviewed with a pretest questionnaire and then an AHP questionnaire on the critical factors in site selection decision making for multinational tanning industry¡¦s overseas vertical integration investment. The answered AHP questionnaires were analyzed with software Expert Choice 2000 for Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) analysis.
The conclusions of this study based on the AHP analysis results include:
1. The critical factors in site selection decision making for multinational tanning industry¡¦s overseas vertical integration investment: the decisive elements in level two and level three of the AHP model as well as the ranking in priority of all decisive elements.
2. The suggested most favorable site for A company to invest a wet blue tannery for its vertival integration.

Application of Hybrid Antennas in Normalized Site Attenuation Measurements and An Improved Method for Free-space Antenna Factor MeasurementChen, Hsing-Feng 18 January 2010 (has links)
This thesis first discusses the ground plane effects of a test site on the antenna factors (AFs) of hybrid antenna (biconical log-periodic dipole array). Meanwhile, the effects of mutual coupling between antenna and its image, and the variation of active phase center are also discussed. From these analyses, a hybrid method, based on the modified SSM (Standard Site Method) and the PCPM (Phase Center and Pattern Matching) applied to the hybrid antenna for NSA (Normalized Site Attenuation) measurement is proposed. By this method, the low geometry- dependent AFs of hybrid antenna can be obtained to produce more reasonable NSA values for a test site.
Secondly, this thesis proposes a simple, fast, and accurate method to calibrate the free-space AFs of broadband EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) antennas. This method adopts a fixed-height configuration and a MUSIC (MUltiple SIgnal Classification) algorithm. This configuration significantly shortens measurement time and removes height-dependent calibration errors. Meanwhile, the MUSIC algorithm can remove unexpected reflections from the ground plane or any other reflecting objects, by which the free-space AFs can be calculated. In addition, this method can also automatically compensate for the phase center shift, which makes measurement easier and more convenient. To verify this method, the calibrated results are compared with other published standard methods: the mean differences can be as low as 0.25 dB for the LPDA (log-periodic dipole array), 0.42 dB for the hybrid antennas, and 0.36 dB for the horn antennas.
Finally, this thesis provides a method of using two equivalent negative inductances from two terminals of three coupled inductors to reduce the parasitic inductances of a typical three-capacitor EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) filter. Theoretical analysis and formula deduction for the design of two equivalent negative inductances are demonstrated. The experimental results show that the insertion losses of a three-capacitor EMI filter at 50 MHz can be reduced by 16.8 dB for the DM (differential-mode) and by 19.2 dB for the CM (common-mode).
In Appendix A of this thesis, an extended study of the effect of ground plane on antenna¡¦s radiation is described. A simple V-shape edge-groove design for a finite ground plane can effectively reduce the pattern ripples of a monopole. The optimal design of proposed structure can reduce the peak-to-peak pattern ripples from 26 to 4.5 dB.

A method for identification of putatively co-regulated genesAndersson, Malin January 2002 (has links)
<p>The genomes of several organisms have been sequenced and the need for methods to analyse the data is growing. In this project a method is described that tries to identify co-regulated genes. The method identifies transcription factor binding sites, documented in TRANSFAC, in the non-coding regions of genes. The algorithm counts the number of common binding sites and the number of unique binding sites for each pair of genes and decides if the genes are co-regulated. The result of the method is compared with the correlation between the gene expression patterns of the genes. The method is tested on 21 gene pairs from the genome of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The algorithm first identified binding sites from all organisms. The accuracy of the program was very low in this case. When the algorithm was modified to only identify binding sites found in plants the accuracy was much improved, from 52% to 76% correct predictions.</p>
