Minina, Alisa. "Consumption of financial services in global mobility : A Cephalopodic consumption mode?" Doctoral thesis, Stockholms universitet, Företagsekonomiska institutionen, 2017. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:su:diva-139402.

Abstract:
In the interconnected world of today more and more people get on the move. We go abroad for vacations, visits or business trips and we change countries of residence as we pursue new opportunities. Cross-border mobility is becoming part of our life. In recent years consumer researchers have been showing an increasing interest in particularities of consumption in condition of global mobility. Although previous studies have acknowledged the importance of economic capital in enabling global consumer mobility, existing research could be enriched by a deeper understanding of how globally mobile consumers manage their financial consumption across borders. The aim of this dissertation is to is to contribute to the uncovering of the particularities of consumption of financial services in global mobility by documenting globally mobile consumers’ financial consumption patterns, the ways they build and maintain relationships with their financial service providers and the ways in which they navigate cultural norms of service consumption and financial consumption across borders. The study is based on four research articles that develop an understanding of the dimensions of financial consumption and uncover purchasing, relational and acculturative aspects of consumption of financial services in mobility. The overarching chapter further develops the insights from the articles, bringing forward the concept of the cephalopodic consumption mode – a particular way in which globally mobile consumers organize their financial consumption. This work contributes to the domain of research on serially relocating consumers by showing how globally mobile professionals engage in cephalopodic consumption mode (CCM), using their economic capital in order to navigate their international movement. The multipresence, multi-acculturation, instrumentality and camouflage of CCM emerge as an answer to challenges of mobility – the need to reacquaint with new countries every time upon relocation, the future need to leave again and the necessity to organize consumption across borders.

At the time of the doctoral defense, the following papers were unpublished and had a status as follows: Paper 2: Manuscript. Paper 4: Manuscript.

Abstract:
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) can provide deterministic channels as required for real time signals, as well as statistical multiplexing. For this reason, ATM has been chosen as the underlying technology for providing a Broadband Integrated Services Digital Network (B-ISDN). Two main classes of services are expected to be supported over a B-ISDN. These classes are real-time services and data services. Data services include computer communications (Local Area Network (LAN) interconnections) and general non-real time traffic, such as file transfer and small transactions.The provision of data services over ATM are better served with statistical multiplexing, provided that the service is loss-free. For multiplexing to be loss-free and still statistical, while the maximum service rate is fixed, the multiplexer tributaries must be controlled in flow, to assure no overflow of the multiplexing buffer. Provision of a service over ATM is accomplished by an ATM layer. Transfer Capability (ATC).This thesis investigates and reports on the operating characteristics of an ATM layer Transfer Capability proposed to the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), and called Controlled Cell Transfer (CCT). CCT uses credit window based flow control on links and a quota based control in switches, and will give loss free statistical multiplexing for data. Other ITU defined ATCs are examined in regard to data service provision and compared with CCT. It is found that only CCT can provide a fast and at the same time efficient data service.The thesis also examines the impact that support of the CCT capability would have on an ATM switch, through determination of required functionality, and mapping of the required functions into a switch design. Finally, an architecture and implementation of an ATM switch is described that would support the CCT as well as the Deterministic Bit Rate (DBR) ++
transfer capability, and would provide efficient data and real-time services.

Abstract:
Shopping har tidigare varit en aktivitet som främst kvinnor har ägnat sig åt, men de senaste decennierna har fler och fler män börjat visa intresse för mode och shopping. I denna uppsats har vi valt att undersöka hur män beter sig när de handlar modekläder och hur de vill bli bemötta av personal i butik. För att undersöka detta har intervjuer med konsumenter och personal från butiker som erbjuder herrmode genomförts. Idag finns det många aktörer inom modebranschen vilket ger konsumenter flera alternativ att välja mellan när de ska handla kläder. Detta har lett till att modeföretag behöver anstränga sig för att kunna konkurrera med varandra på marknaden. Ett sätt att kunna differentiera sig på marknaden är att erbjuda en hög servicekvalitet. Butiksanställda har möjlighet att påverka kunder genom hela köpprocessen och därför är själva kundbemötandet ett verktyg företag kan använda sig av för att vinna konkurrensfördelar. Uppsatsens författare vill undersöka huruvida företag som erbjuder herrmode är medvetna om vilken typ av kundservice deras konsumenter förväntar sig och vill ha. Mellan den service som kunder förväntar sig och den service som sedan levereras av butiker skapas ett gap mellan förväntad och upplevd service, vilket kan påverka huruvida kunder är nöjda eller inte med sina köp. Utifrån insamlat material kan vi konstatera att intresset för mode och shopping bland män var större hos deltagande respondenter än vi förväntat oss. Konsumenterna var överens i fråga kring bemötande och har höga krav på personalens beteende. Vi anser därför att män borde ses som aktörer på modemarknaden i en högre grad då de verkar besitta ett högre intresse för mode och kläder än vad uppsatsens författare väntat sig.
Shopping was previously an activity that mostly women engaged in, but the last few decades, more and more men has begun to show interest in fashion and shopping. In this paper we have chosen to examine how men behave when they shop fashion clothes and how they want to be treated by staff in fashion stores. To examine this, interviews with consumers and staff from fashion stores that offer men's fashion have been conducted. This essay is written is Swedish. Today there are many actors in the fashion industry, giving consumers more options to choose from when they go shopping for clothes. This has led to that fashion companies need to make an effort to compete with each other on the market. One way to differentiate themselves in the market is to offer a high service quality. Store employees have the opportunity to influence customers throughout the buying process and therefore the customer service is a tool, which companies can use in order to gain competitive advantages. The essay writers want to examine whether companies offering menswear are aware of the nature of the customer service their consumers expect and want. Between the service that customers expect and the service that are then delivered in stores creates a gap between expected and perceived service, which can affect whether customers are satisfied or not with their purchase. Based on collected data, we can establish that the interest in fashion and shopping, among men was greater among participating respondents than we expected. Consumers were slightly concerned about the service and have high standards for personnel behaviour. We therefore believe that men should be seen as actors in the fashion market to a greater extent since they seem to inherit a bigger interest for fashion and clothing than expected by the essay writers.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse concerne la conception et la validation de plusieurs mécanismes de contrôle de flux pour le service ABR dans les réseaux ATM. L'algorithme max-min représente une des méthodes les plus utilisées pour offrir le critère de l'équité entre les utilisateurs. La première contribution de cette thèse consiste à étendre l'algorithme max-min à une version pondérée baptisée WMM. Selon cette extension, nous avons donc proposé deux algorithmes distribués : l'algorithme mico et l'algorithme mclf. Ces deux derniers améliorent considérablement les performances de l'algorithme erica a savoir l'équité entre les utilisateurs. En présence des sources ABR sporadiques, L'utilisation conjointe des comportements de source, des algorithmes de commutateur et des comportements use-it-or-lose-it définis par l'ATM forum, ne permet pas de contrôler efficacement la sporadicité du trafic en provenance de ces sources. Elle entraîne, par conséquent, une surestimation de l'allocation de la bande passante aux sources ABR. Dans cette perspective, nous avons conçu l'algorithme iaaa qui calcule l'ARC en fonction de l'état actuel du trafic afin de réduire l'effet provoqué par la sporadicité. Cette thèse a été achevée par la mise en oeuvre de deux algorithmes rca et rca#+. Ils offrent la possibilité d'acheminer un trafic de type vidéo en utilisant le service ABR. Pour ce faire, une équation entre le paramètre de quantification q et le volume de l'information à transmettre a été ajustée. Cette étude s'est basée sur une allocation équitable des sources ABR, sur un contrôle de débit du codeur vidéo, ainsi que sur une diminution du taux de réduction de l'image. Ceci a permis un meilleur délai de transfert tout en gardant une qualité d'image satisfaisante. Ces différents algorithmes ont fait l'objet d'une étude de simulation destinée à valider leurs performances.

Abstract:
Dans un réseau de télécommunication, les flux correspondant aux applications ayant des contraintes temporelles sont appelés flux rigides. Il faut leur garantir un faible délai de traversée, et parfois les resynchroniser avant de les remettre à l'application. Nous étudions dans la partie B les pertes de paquets induites par cette resynchronisation. Nous y déterminons une borne pour la proportion moyenne de perte. Un contrôleur espaceur permet d'estimer les besoins d'un tel flux. Nous étudions son dimensionnement dans la partie C. Nous établissons une borne pour la probabilité de perte au niveau cellule. Enfin, les flux élastiques peuvent s'adapter aux ressources instantanément disponibles. Nous définissons dans la partie D un protocole distribué qui gère dynamiquement l'allocation du débit à un tel flux. Nous développons un modèle de ce protocole grâce aux réseaux de Petri stochastiques. L'analyse stationnaire est menée via l'étude d'un processus régénératif de Markov.

Full text
Abstract:

The need for increased safety and efficiency in civil aviation is pushing the introduction of Automatic Dependent Surveillance - Broadcast (ADS-B). The basic principle of ADS-B is that each aircraft is able to communicate its position and status over a radio data link to surrounding aircraft. In this way each aircraft obtains a detailed picture of the surrounding traffic. During a period of transition from today's radar surveillance to ADS-B many aircraft will not be equipped with the new data link technology and will therefore be invisible to the ADS-B equipped aircraft. The Traffic Information Service - Broadcast (TIS-B) has been conceived to be the solution to this problem. TIS-B is defined as a broadcast surveillance service in which data from the ordinary ground radar system is transmitted from a ground station to airborne systems, providing an air situation picture of the non-ADS-B stations.

The topics of this thesis are the definition and implementation of a TIS-B server. The presented solution is an evaluation TIS-B server that will receive data from a data-fusing tracker and provide one or several TIS-B ground stations with data filtered according to the settings of the server.

Full text
Abstract:
Congestion control is concerned with allocating the resources in a network such that the network can operate at an acceptable performance level when the demand exceeds or is near the capacity of the network resources. These resources include bandwidths of links, buffer space (memory) and processing capacity at intermediate nodes. Although resource allocation is necessary even at low load, the problem becomes more important as the load increases. Without proper congestion control mechanisms, the throughput may be reduced considerably under heavy load. Future applications are expected to require increasingly higher bandwidth and generate a heterogeneous mix of network traffic. ATM network is potentially capable of supporting all classes of traffic (e.g., voice, video, and data) and have multiple service classes allow audio, video and data to share the same network. Of these, the Available Bit Rate (ABR) service class is designed to efficiently support data traffic. Switch algorithms have been the most investigated topic of ABR. This has happened because the specification of ABR given by the ATM Forum allows a diversity of switch algorithms to be implemented. These range from the simplest binary switches to the more complex ER switches. The major part of this thesis has been devoted to ABR. First an introduction to the concept of congestion control and a brief literature survey of congestion control for ABR service of ATM networks are presented. Then two proposed congestion control mechanisms for the ABR service class in ATM networks are examined by means of simulation, showing the different degree of performance and complexity. The simulation results presented in this thesis were obtained using a network simulator written in C++. This network simulator is a small event driven program. Analytical results were derived for different network configurations and different scenarios using this program.

Abstract:
Inom modebranschen växer konkurrensen sig allt större och fler modeföretag satsar på fast fashion som konkurrensstrategi. Konsumenterna har idag ett starkare modeintresse än någonsin vilket gör att företagen genom korta ledtider kan ta fram moderiktiga produkter till ett lågt pris för att tillfredsställa konsumenternas efterfråga. Den ökade konkurrensen gör att det blir viktigare för modeföretagen att samspela med sina olika attribut för att skapa en stark position på marknaden. Företagets tjänster har blivit ett av de omdiskuterade attributen. Där modebutiker bör satsa på att förbättra sin servicekvalitet genom att ge en högre nivå i sitt kundbemötande för att öka kundlojaliteten och konkurrenskraften. Enligt en mystery shopper undersökning av Nylund (2012) visade det sig att många butiker inte uppfyllde en godkänd och acceptabel servicenivå. En av de butiker som uppmärksammades ha en låg nivå i sitt kundbemötande var Gina Tricot.Med bakgrund till mystery shopper undersökningen har vi fått i uppdrag av Gina Tricots huvudkontor i Borås att studera vad kunderna vill ha i ett kundbemötande för fast fashion butiken Gina Tricot. För att undersöka vad kunderna efterfrågar har en kvantitativ studie genomförts i form av en enkätundersökning. Mätinstrumentet SERVQUAL används för att mäta ett företags servicekvalitet och har varit ett hjälpmedel i vår studie. Undersökningen utfördes utanför fyra utvalda Gina Tricot butiker i Borås och Göteborg där ett urval på 200 personer tillfrågades att delta i undersökningen. Datorprogrammet SPSS har använts för att presentera vårt resultat. Undersökningen visar utifrån analysen att det är viktigt för kunden att bli uppmärksammad och att personalen ska visa ett högt engagemang när kunden får hjälp av personalen. Resultatet visar även att personalens produktkunskap är av betydelse för kunden. Utifrån resultatet ser vi att kunderna tycker det är viktigt med service i en fast fashion butik. Undersökningen har hjälpt oss att ta fram viktiga grundparametrar i kundbemötandet för fast fashion butiken Gina Tricot.

Abstract Thesis title: The selection of entry mode when penetrating a foreign market Author: Annica Gunnarsson  Tutor: Åsa Devine Course: Marketing, advanced level, spring term 2011, Linnaeus University   Entering a new market is always a risky business, with a big potential of failure. To research the options of entry strategy can help in determine which strategy to use. The international market of education has changed during the last years, and in Sweden we just had one big change when the introduction of tutoring fees was determined. This has forced the universities out on unfamiliar territory.  This new territory consists of competing on a much bigger market than before and the need to develop a new international marketing strategy has occurred. The research on entry modes from a manufacturing perspective is extensive and therefore this research deals with the entry modes from a service perspective. The aim of this study is to gain better understanding of the selection of entry modes from a service institutes perspective. Furthermore the research is limited to investigating the education sector and how they use entry mode when wanting to establish them on a new market. The research is done through seven different interviews. The universities are located both in Sweden and abroad. This method where chosen because the goal is to find out how the universities is enter new markets.    The findings are based on the factors that determined international marketing strategy and how the respondents have answered the questions. How the universities work with the changes they experience is also a factor in the decision making process on which international strategy to use. The main findings of the study are that the entry mode education institutes most often use is some sort of international joint venture.

Full text
Abstract:
This research studies the impact of consultancy competency and consultation mode on the service quality of management consulting firms in the emerging market of Nigeria – the largest economy in Africa. It explains the consultant competency and the adopted consultation approach of the ‘Big Four’ (PwC, Akintola-Deloitte, Ernest and Young, and KPMG) management consultancy firms from the resource based-view (RBV) and institutional theory of the firm. The conceptual framework of management consulting directing this study is generated from earlier research (Canavan et al., 2013; Jang et al., 1997, 1998; Patterson, 2000; Parasuraman, 1988; Kisang et al., 2012; Pugh et al., 1968; Oliver, 1980). Previous research has examined factors that are important for management consulting success, however, one of the remaining challenges is to investigate the associations among these factors. Furthermore, there seems to be a relative disregard for the associations between these management consulting factors and service quality. This study aims to advance the RBV and make theoretical contributions in several ways. First, it identifies and proposes that the professional and managerial competencies of the consultants are the key assets of the management consultancy firms needed to sustain and further their competitiveness in emerging markets. Specifically, we argue that these competencies are particularly valuable and have direct impact on management consultancy firms’ service quality. Also, from an institutional perspective, this study proposes that multinational management consulting firms must have the capacity to deliver quality in a consultation mode suitable to their various clients in different countries for sustainability. Specifically, we argue that the particular consultation mode adopted by the consulting firm impacts the quality of consultation service rendered to its clients in the Nigerian market, determining its firms’ client satisfaction levels. This study utilized a mixed methods approach (Creswell, 2003), which entailed the use of both qualitative and quantitative methods in assessing this research’s questions. 13 senior management consultants were interviewed, and survey data was collected from 311 business clients of these management consultancy firms situated in the three most industrious states in Nigeria, which are Abuja (North), Lagos (South-West), and Port Harcourt (South-South). The results of this study show that the service quality of well-established western management consulting firms is significantly influenced by their consultation mode, as well as both their professional and managerial capabilities, irrespective of their client’s organizational structure. This study also finds that client experience levels in dealing with management consultants considerably moderates the relationship between these firms’ service quality and their client satisfaction in this strategic context. Our study advances the RBV and institutional theories, highlighting that the consultation modes, professional competencies, managerial competencies and client experience levels are the key competitive factors of western management consulting firms in Nigeria.

Full text
Abstract:
L'objectif de ce travail est l'amélioration de la qualité de service (QdS) dans les réseaux sans fil ad-hoc avec équité. La QdS dans les réseaux sans fil ad-hoc est actuellement définie par la norme IEEE802.11e (EDCA). Elle permet de garantir l'accès prioritaire aux ressources pour le trafic de priorité élevé (trafic temps réel et trafic multimédia). Elle est mise en œuvre dans chaque station par la classification des paquets dans différentes file d'attente caractérisant chacune une classe de trafic à laquelle est associée une priorité de traitement. Toutefois, EDCA n'est pas un protocole équitable. En effet, lorsque un nœud participe au routage du trafic des ces voisins, son trafic propre se trouve réduit. Pour résoudre ce problème, nous proposons un nouveau modèle appelé F-EDCA. Ce modèle permet à un nœud routeur d'accéder plus régulièrement au réseau en fonction de son taux d'occupation. Une autre forme de non équité résulte de la position d'un nœud source par rapport au nœud destination. Plus le nœud source est éloigné, moins il a de bande passante. Pour résoudre ce problème, nous proposons FQ-EDCA. Il améliore la QdS en distinguant dans chaque classe de trafic, une file d'attente par source de trafic. Le modèle met alors en œuvre des techniques d'ordonnancement équitable en se basant sur la technique du temps virtuel. Ainsi, les ressources sont allouées équitablement entre tous les nœuds. F-EDCA et FQ-EDCA sont mis en œuvre et évaluées de manière comparative avec EDCA. Ce travail montre que chacun d'eux améliore EDCA et pourrait allouer équitablement les ressources dans des conditions différentes et augmenter la garantie de la QdS

Title: A process of internationalization and foreign market entry mode selection in service industry ‘Case study of Via SMS Group Company’ Level: Final assignment for Master Degree in Business Administration Authors: Olegs Semasko, Aluko Abolade Supervisor: Pär Vilhelmson Date: 2012 May AIM: The aim of this study is to investigate the causes that stimulate service companies to cross boundaries of its home country and open new subsidiaries in other countries. In addition we also examine what type of foreign market entry mode the service company selects when it enters another market. The topic of market entry strategy is of current interest among researchers and has been widely discussed for a long period of time, but there is still limited number of studies about the service industry. Therefore it might be interesting to look into why the companies in service industry strive to internationalize its operations and what mode of entry do they prefer in terms of choosing foreign market entering strategy. METHOD: We used a qualitative research approach to explore the internationalization process procedure of our case company and we adopted a case study method. Both secondary (textbooks, scientific articles and the website of our case company) and primary data (interviews with two branch managers of the case company) were used in order to fulfill the purpose of this study. CONCLUSION: Our study shows that the firm’s reason of internationalization depends on the motives such as: to increase the number of clients, to improve customer loyalty and to get additional profit. We also understand that the company’s executives prioritized wholly owned subsidiary entry mode among others. From our empirical findings we concluded that the firms’ decision about going abroad requires a preparation and implementation of well developed strategies, in order to succeed in foreign markets and to achieve company’s goals and objectives CONTRIBUTION OF THE STUDY: Taking into consideration limited number of researches in this area for the financial service sector, this study can be perceived as valuable complement to the existing researches in this field. Moreover the companies in service industry, that have plans for entering other countries, might consider this study as useful and beneficial for them in terms of getting relevant information. Undoubtedly the research may increase awareness about new financial service products, provided by the Via SMS Group. KEY WORDS: Globalization, process of internationalization, entry mode, short-term loan, IT platform.

In developed countries, automobile industry is an important index for a country’s economic prosperity and industrial development, which has tremendous influence on a country’s economic development. However, due to the limitations in narrow home market and lack of raw materials, it is harder for Taiwan to compete against foreign companies. Therefore, most of the automobile brands within our country are imported from big foreign factories. The parent companies of such big brands all have their own consistent operation procedures and models, from product design, development, production, manufacture, assembly, quality inspection, vehicle completion, marketing, to after-sale service and so on; thus, it seems that the commercial agents in Taiwan can smoothly carry out their operation merely by following these schemes. However, the reality is not as it seems. Take “after-sale service” for example. In addition to standard procedures, different folk customs and the disparity in habits between countries should be taken into account otherwise, either customer identification is hard to be obtained or incidents may happen easily and thus business image will be jeopardized. Under such a circumstance, the personnel in after-sale service departments as well as on-site maintenance personnel, who face customers in the front line, can practically be the keys to success or failure. Consequently, it has become an important issue for each company in terms of how to provide these personnel with best support and trainings. As for each company’s training ways for after-sale service departments, the most important one is the establishment and compilation of “Automobile Service Manual”, in addition to educational training courses. Within our country at present, only LUXGEN Motors has its own internal independent responsible organization, while other auto factories all provide these manuals merely by translating the original service manuals from their parent companies. Therefore, this study has the topic concerning “the Establishment Model for Automobile Service Manual”, aiming to analyze and explore the general situation of Taiwan’s automobile industry and after-sale service development, ISO9001 service manual management procedure, compilation of service manuals, and the software used. Also, Semi-structural Interviews were adopted, to have deeper understanding about the personnel in after-sale service departments as well as on-site maintenance personnel in many automobile brands, who were interviewed regarding their thoughts after using automobile service manuals, in terms of the four dimensions of automobile service manuals-1. Chapter Arrangement, 2. Content Structure, 3. Typesetting Software, 4. Inquiring Way. Besides, some pieces of advice and anticipation aimed at insufficiencies or deficiencies were also provided. “To do a good job, one must first sharpen one''s tools”. This study aims to provide the industry with reference for compilation of automobile service manual, so that after-sale and maintenance personnel can achieve the best after-sale service quality by more perfect and useful tools.

Service is a continuous learning process. Through the interaction, the consumer choose the most comfortable way for them to deal with prospective providers. Take pseudo relationships for example, the consumer will select one provider but will be unconcerned as to who delivers the service. Based on former research about Serive Quality, Brand Equity, Relationship Quality, Relationship Marketing, Customer Satisfaction and Customer Loyalty, this research will find the critical factors of service interaction in pseudo relationship business types. The results of the of the research are as below: Relationship Quality is the most important factor in pseudo relationships. Since there no personal friendship exists in such relationships, the consumer will decide to stay or leave based on the evaluation of relationship quality.

Abstract:
This research aims at developing a better understanding of commuters preferences and mode switching behaviour towards local transit for work trips. The proposed methodological approach incorporates three main stages. The first introduces a conceptual framework for modal shift maximized transit route design model that extends the use of demand models beyond forecasting transit ridership to the operational extent of transit route design. The second deals with designing and implementing a socio-psychometric COmmuting Survey for MOde Shift (COSMOS). Finally, the third stage focuses on developing econometric choice models of mode switching behaviour towards public transit. Advanced mode shift models are developed using state-of-the-art methodology of combining Revealed Preference (RP) and Stated Preference (SP) information. The results enriched our understanding of mode switching behaviour and revealed some interesting findings. Some socio-psychological variables have shown to have strong influence on mode shift and improved the models in terms of fitness and statistical significance. In an indication of the superiority of the car among other travel options, strong car use habit formation was realized for car drivers, making it hard to persuade them to switch to public transit. Further, unlike conventional choice models, the developed mode shift models showed that travel cost and in-vehicle travel time are of lower importance compared to other transit Level of Service (LOS) attributes such as waiting time, service reliability, number of transfers, transit technology, and crowding level. The results also showed that passengers are more likely to shift to rail-based modes (e.g. LRT and subway) than rubber-tyred modes (e.g. BRT). On the other hand, the availability of park-and-ride facilities as well as both schedule and real-time information provision did not appear to be significant for mode switching to public transit for work trips. This research provides evidence that mode shift is a complex process which involves socio-psychological variables beside common socio-demographic and modal attributes. The developed mode switching models present a new methodologically sound tool for evaluating the impacts of alternative transit service designs on travel behaviour. Such tool is more desirable for transit service planning than the traditional ones and can aid in precisely estimating transit ridership.

The rapid development and deployment of Internet creates a paradise for malicious attackers. In addition to traditional attacks like phishing, spam, and botnet, recently modern attackers leverage the fast-flux technique to prevent their attacks from being shutdown by network administrators. The use of fast-flux techniques is able to improve the lifetime and availability of malicious services. A fast-flux domain name is often mapped to a large number of IP addresses of vulnerable personal computers. These computers are spread world-wide so that the fast-flux domain cannot be easily shutdown if only some of them are disconnected from the Internet.   Most existing detection techniques are based on analyzing DNS records. However, these techniques requires a longer period of time to collect sufficient amount of DNS records and therefore they are not able to detect fast-flux domains in real time. Although Hsu et al. proposed a real-time detection solution based on the measurement of network delays, the solution has to send network probe packets actively so that it is not suitable to deploy in a large scale network.   The goal of this paper is to detect fast-flux domains in a passive and efficient manner. Therefore, it is not only applicable to a single host, it can be further used to detect fast-flux domains in a large scale network. By combining features collected from both DNS records and network delays, the proposed solution is able to differentiate benign and malicious domains within several seconds. Our experiments show that the proposed solution has high precision and recall rates (both higher than 0.95) and the error rate is lower than 0.05.

More and more network services needs powerful server to handle. However, quite a lot of services may not be able to handle by a single server. The cluster server system provides fluent website services to the big enterprise and business website, which can sustain a large number of connections in a short period of time. However, the cost of cluster server system is quite expensive. We propose a system that uses the Round-Robin algorithm to implement a load balance web server system from a large number of heterogeneous servers, including general purpose personal computers and low end PC servers. We use a number of client computers to simulate large number of client requests to our load balance server system. The experimental results show that our system can not only have the capability to process a large number of connection requests but also successfully distribute the load to individual server according to its capacity.

Although firms in Taiwan are relatively lack of experience, human resource,technology and managerial knowledge, they could play an important part of foreigninvestment activities around world. Therefore, it''s worth making a study on thedecision process and influential factors of foreign direct investment of firms in Taiwan. But previous studies referring to this topic all focused on manufacturingfirms. For these reasons, it''s necessary to make a study of FDI in service firms. The goals of the thesis are listed as follows:1. To find out the conceptual framework of influential factors on FDI entry mode on the basis of previous studies.2. To analyze the FDI entry mode in service firms, and to find out the factors that influence the selection of entry mode.3. To find out the relationship between strategic factors and selection of FDI Entry mode. Compiling all the previous studies referring to the topic, the thesis concludeson four categories of factors that influence the selection of FDI entry mode in service firms. They are enviormental factors, firm specific factors, strategicfactors, and characteristics of service firms. The conclusions of the thesis are listed firms:1.The factors that make positive influence on selection of highly involved entry mode are national risk, product diversification ability, experience of international business, degree of asset specificity, scale of firm and intangibility of service.2.The factors that make negative influence on selection of highly involved entry mode are psychological distance, managerial technique and competition situation of market.
