    A study of Operation on Multi-author Blogs - A case study of TechSea Blog

    No full text
    Multi-Author Blog is a kind of blog which is an important source of information on the internet. Unlike the Single-Author Blog that is managed by one author, two or more authors cooperate to write the Multi-Author Blog that becomes popular especially in the online community with the interest on Internet Communication Technology. However, there is none research about the Multi-Author Blog. The aim of this research is to study the operation and management of the Multi-Author Blog. The author performed a case study and operated a Multi-Author Blog for seven months to approach the research purpose. For the case study, the author designed a field interview with the management team of \ue2TechOrange\ue2 that is a famous IT Multi-Author Blog in Taiwan in order to understand the related issues. For the implementation, the author built of a Multi-Author Blog named \ue2TechSea\ue2 and collected associated website data. The research observed that the number of words in an article and the link to news have influences on the blog pageviews. In addition, the social media like Facebook helps to increase pageviews. Furthermore, the case study of TechOrange summarized the experiences and insights of the editorial team. The research results provide authors or managers of Multi-Author Blogs some answers about business operation of the online social media

    A Study on Sustainable Wood Value Chain Practices in Yangon Region ( Kyaw Lin Tun, 2025)

    This study examines the current state of the wood processing industry in Yangon with the objective of identifying key factors influencing its development. A survey was conducted with 200 business owners, selected for their diverse demographics and extensive industry experience. The study assessed areas including technology, human resources, market dynamics, policy and regulatory environment, and manufacturing performance. A descriptive research approach is employed and the study is based on primary data and secondary data. The findings indicate that while there is a positive perception of technology’s potential to improve productivity and quality, concerns remain about cost-effectiveness and adaptability. Human resource challenges, particularly labor shortages and the need for workforce development, emerged as significant issues. Confidence in stability of policy and regulatory support was relatively high, but perceptions regarding market competitiveness and manufacturing efficiency were more neutral. The study recommends focused investments in technology, workforce development, and strategic partnerships to strengthen the industry's sustainability and competitiveness

    The UNDP's Sustainable Development Goals describe information and communications technology as a critical contributor of economic activity and progress. Many nations in development have implemented national ICT plans, laws, and regulations to combat cybercrime and encourage the development of the sector's supporting infrastructure. The thesis is analyst the linkage between the ICT development and economic growth. The method used in the study is descriptive method with secondary data. This study found that there is a positive relationship between the ICT development and economic growth by the four indicators GDP, Per Capita GDP, Teledensity and ICT Development Index (ID). The study suggests that the government should provide a good internet facility and electricity in fair price. The Cyber Law should be enacted to protect the cyber violations but must have a proper consideration before any limitation is adopted

    The metric tun : standardisation, quantification and industrialisation in the British brewing industry, 1760-1830

    This thesis considers the British beer-brewing industry around 1800 as a case study exploring current themes in the history of science and technology: the imposition of reliable standards, the use of instruments and quantities, and the nature of industrial growth. I begin by addressing Michael Combrune, author of the first thermometric brewing account, showing the influence of Boerhaavian fermentation theory and the eighteenth-century agenda for "commercial chemistry" on his work: Combrune's fellow brewers, however, did not generally rely on the chemical scheme of management he had established, developing instead highly localised thermometric operations which did not challenge established understandings. Next, I consider the determination of beer strength, focusing here on the brewer John Richardson's innovation of the saccharometer, a gravimetric philosophical instrument. I show how Richardson presented both the device and the quantity in which it was scaled, later termed the `brewer's pound, ' as offering brewery-specific advantages, in order to ensure its acceptance whilst at the same time denying its roots in the disputatious field of spirits hydrometry. Richardson did not achieve his wider goal of monopolist control over the device, but his project of saccharometric determination was widely taken up, contributing to a significant change in the composition of beer, as brewers moved from using traditional brown- malts to the saccharometrically preferable pales. This development is then reviewed in the context of an analysis of the identity of London porter, the staple brown beer of London: I investigate the relationship of porter's identity to the uniquely vast and industrialised plants which produced it. Finally, I highlight the ambiguous nature of appeals to `science' or `chemistry' before 1830 by discussing the widespread contemporary panic over adulteration, popularly assumed to be practised by those who associated with chemists and did not pursue a `traditional' approach to brewing. This controversy was settled, I contend, only with the later development of a common laboratory-analytical context between brewers, pharmacists and public analysts who were able to redefine the concept of adulteration itself
