    No full text
    處在經營環境與科技快速變遷的時代,為追求時效掌握商機,併購巳成為二十一世紀經濟的常態活動,有強烈企圖心的企業主會運用併購來獲取人才、技術、產量和市場,以追求國際化與成長。2002年,政府宣示「兩兆雙星計劃」,預期兩項重點產業DRAM 與TFT-LCD 能共同突破兩兆產值,帶動台灣產業升級。但TFT-LCD 面板業者都瞭解此一產業存在液晶循環,當市場供不應求時,一線面板廠會大賺一筆,但當市場供過於求時,也只有一線面板廠能小賠,其餘廠商則經常要面臨巨額虧損的狀況。在此產業特性下,整併往往是提高規模經濟與議價力,有利於產能協調的有效途徑。但是,併購係屬企業重大投資案,必須符合公司策略並能創造股東價值,稍有不慎即可能變成重大災難,而影響企業併購成敗往往來自於併購後之整合管理。本研究以個案分析方法就台灣光電產業主要的兩件併購案之併購後整合過程,探討影響成敗之因素。研究發現友達光電在經過2001年和2006 年的合併後,年產值由2000年合併前的新台幣148億成長到2007年新台幣4,797億,短短7年營收成長將近32.41倍。影響友達光電併購成功的最主要因素在於併購後組織的整合迅速,從而提高企業併購成功的機率愈高。同時,當企業進行併購時,若愈能兼顧顧客、股東、員工與商業夥伴的利益,則併購的成效愈高,也愈能持續。友達光電兩次的合併都是在企業主、顧及股東最大的利益下進行,符合企業主及股東最大的預期。其次,併購形同變革,而要做好變革就必須化解變革可能的阻力,尤其以掌握組織的人心為要;同時,新企業要提出新願景,創造近程戰果,鞏固戰果並讓新的做法深植人心成為公司的企業文化,併購成功的機會將加大。In light of rapid and drastic changes in business environment and technology development,mergers and acquisitions (M&A) have become a dominant strategy companies adopt to timely seize growth opportunities in the 21st century. Through M&A,a company can quickly obtain talent,technology,production capacity or market share to realize its vision and to create shareholder value. Nevertheless,M&A,like other major business investments,can be a catastrophic failure without thorough risk assessment and due diligence. In addition, organizational and cultural integration represents the ultimate challenge in the entire M&A execution. Therefore,a comprehensive and smooth integration would be a cornerstone of a successful M&A to achieve its synergistic benefits.ased on case study approach,the present study looks into post-merger integration processes of two major M&A cases among major players in Taiwan’s thin film transistor liquid crystal display panels (TFT-LCD) industry with a focus on identifying critical factors underlying AUO’s two successful M&A moves. After an M&A in 2001 and 2006 respectively,AUO’s annual revenues surged 32.41 times from NT14.8billionin2000toNT 14.8 billion in 2000 to NT 479.7 billion in 2007. These two mergers have also made AUO Taiwan''s largest and a worldwide top 3 manufacturer of TFT-LCD and currently houses a staff of more than 43,000 employees throughout its global operations spreading across Taiwan,China,Japan, Singapore,South Korea,U.S. and Europe.his study shows that the key determinant for AUO’s success is a fast and effective organizational and cultural integration after each M&A. In addition,M&A’s synergy can be maximized and sustained if interests among customers,shareholders,employees and business partners are well balanced. This study also indicates that AUO undertook this approach by well balancing the interests of customers and shareholders to secure the expected benefits of these two M&As. Moreover,M&A is tantamount to change. Yet,to lead a successful change, a company must first be able to redcue the resistance to change through people mindset change. This case study also addresses how AUO tackled this challenge and molded a new corporate culture by creating a new vision,delivering and solidifying short-term results,to pave the way for the two successful mergers.目 錄一章、緒 論 1一節、研究背景與動機 1、研究背景 1、研究動機 2二節、研究問題與目的 4、研究問題 4、研究目的 4三節、研究方法與流程 5、研究方法 5、研究流程 6二章、文獻探討 7一節、企業併購的型態 7、水平式併購(Horizontal Merger) 7、垂直式併購(Vertical Merger) 8、同源式併購(Concentric Merger) 8、複合式併購(Conglomerate Merger) 9二節、企業併購的動機與理論 12、經濟動機(Economic Motives) 12、個人動機(Personal Motives) 13、策略動機(Strategic Motives) 13三節、企業併購後的整合與管理 15、組織變革 16、企業文化 18、人力資源策略 19三章、達碁科技與聯友光電的合併 22一節、友達光電的成立背景 22、友達光電成立背景 22二節、聯友光電的成立背景 25、聯友光電成立背景 25三節、友達光電與聯友光電合併過程 27、合併前 27、合併效益評估 27四節、併購後的整合與管理 31、組織整合 31、企業文化整合 32、關鍵人才辨識及留任 33、制度及系統整合 34、併購後的整合溝通 35、財務績效與市場佔有率 37四章、友達光電與廣輝電子的合併 39一節、廣輝電子的成立背景 39、廣輝電子成立背景 39二節、友達光電與廣輝電子合併過程 41、合併前 41、合併效益評估 42三節、併購後的整合與管理 43、成立整合委員會 43、關鍵人才留任 45、企業文化整合 46、硬體設施改建及整合 47、財務績效 48五章、併購後整合成功因素探討 50一節、併購後整合成功因素 50、組織變革 50、企業文化 51、人力資源策略 51二節、併購後整合流程 54、100天內的關鍵活動 54六章、結論與建議 56一節、結論與管理意涵 56、結論 56、管理意涵 58二節、後續研究建議 58考文獻 60文部份 60文部份 61站部份 63錄 訪談大綱 65併的動機及型態 65業文化 67織學習之內涵 69購後之學習評估 7

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used

    Author Under Sail The Imagination of Jack London, 1893-1902

    No full text
    In Author Under Sail, Jay Williams offers the first complete literary biography of Jack London as a professional writer engaged in the labor of writing. It examines the authorial imagination in London's work, the use of imagination in both his fiction and nonfiction, and the ways he defined imagination in the creative process in his business dealings with his publishers, editors, and agents. In this first volume of a two-volume biography, Williams traverses the years 1893 to 1902, from London's "Story of a Typhoon" to The People of the Abyss. The Jack London who emerges in the pages of Author Under Sail is a writer whose partnership with publishers, most notably his productive alliance with George Brett of Macmillan, was one of the most formative in American literary history. London pioneered many author models during the heyday of realism and naturalism, blurring the boundaries of these popular genres by focusing on absorption and theatricality and the representation of the seen and unseen. London created an impassioned, sincere, and extremely personal realism unlike that of other American writers of the time. Author Under Sail is a literary tour de force that reveals the full range of London as writer, creative citizen, and entrepreneur at the same time it sheds light on the maverick side of machine-age literature.Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Dedication -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- 1.
