Academic literature on the topic 'Taiwan periodicals'

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to report results of a study which investigated the growth of open access (OA) journals across the world with reference to the Asian region. Details of 117 OA journals were collected from the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) to determine the geographic distribution, language of publication and growth of periodical year-wise. The study makes detail analysis of four OA periodical published from India, Iran, Pakistan and Taiwan. Pattern of authorship and contribution according to nature of professional work were analyzed. The study reveals that most contributions were made by teaching professionals in comparison to working library and information officers. Single-authored contributions dominated (44 per cent) in all periodicals of the Asian region, indicating low amount of teamwork/collaborative contributions to library and information science (LIS) research by the authors of this region. To know the subject distribution of articles, the study was limited to 27 subfields within the broad spectrum of LIS. Annals of Library and Information Sciences (ALIS) published in India carried the highest number of articles (165) followed by Journal of Library and Information Sciences (JLIS) from Taiwan. The findings of the study also indicate that there is varied distribution of topics within the Asian LIS literature published in OA journals. Most popular areas of writing among authors in OA journals have been found to be bibliometics, webometrics, research productivity or research methods besides information seeking pattern, information need of users and digital libraries. Design/methodology/approach – To gather data for the present investigation, survey of OA e-journals was made across the Web. The collection of data from OA journals and content was accompanied by searching the DOAJ. After selecting the OA journals, these were analyzed using the descriptions on their content page and key words chosen from each contribution. Selection of additional key words, i.e. words not in the title, was also made. Analysis of this data is discussed in this paper. Findings – OA removes restrictions that exist on access to scholarly information and knowledge, it empowers the readers to read, download, distribute and make use of relevant literature, besides giving authors and their work fairly good visibility, readership and impact. The OA movement is gaining importance and the scholarly community is now realizing that tolled or subscribed access is creating a barrier and preventing their work from wider accessibility and readership. A number of journals across the world are now being published in OA mode. The present study attempts to map the growth of LIS literature in OA journals with special reference to periodicals published from Asian countries. The finding of this sample study suggests that many counties are promoting OA journals. While USA ranks first in publication of OA journals in the world. Taiwan publishes the highest number of articles in Asia. Majority of OA journals are published in English, and English appears to be most popular language for communicating research information. Of the four OA LIS journals analyzed in detail, it is observed that single-authored contributions are most popular. Collaborative contributions to LIS research were not so evident among authors of the Asian community. The teaching professionals or LIS teachers contributed the greatest number of articles, except for the Indian journal ALIS, demonstrating that working professional are more actively involved in writing and they outnumber the teaching community. Contributions from research students in all OA journals have been fairly significant. Research students may be encouraged to publish their master’s and doctoral research work in OA periodicals for better visibility, readership and impact. The study further reveals that ALIS from India and JLIS from Taiwan carried the highest number of articles. While areas like bibliometrics, webometrics and e-resources and OA are most popular areas of writing among Indian authors, information-seeking pattern, information need, digital and virtual libraries have been popular among authors from Taiwan. Webology from Iran has predominant articles on Web study or evaluation and social networking. Universities and LIS need to come forward to take a need-based approach to LIS research, suggesting ways for improving existing LIS services in their respective countries. To get the correct picture of growth of OA journals in the Asian region, more exhaustive and extensive study may be required. Researchers interested to carry further investigation will have to adopt appropriate measures to overcome the limitations mentioned in the study, for example, the source of data DOAJ may not be very extensive to give correct picture of OA journals. It is likely that some journals may not have been included in this directory. Researchers interested to carry further investigations will have to adopt appropriate measures to overcome these constraints. Research limitations/implications – Scope and limitation access to data and timely completion are the two vital factors for the success and accomplishment of the objectives of any investigation. Hence, considering the vast range of literature from every geographical region and limited time to complete research, the present study adhered to the following limitations. The study covers in its scope literature published in the period of five years (accessed from March 28 to May 25, 2011, only). The study includes only those publications/journals contributed by authors in English. The study includes four OA journals having full-text articles in English, abstracts not included. It considers those publications primarily inclined and relevant to library and information services. The study includes only those OA LIS journals listed or included in DOAJ. Originality/value – The present study has been taken with view to analyze the growth of OA journals in LIS with special reference to Asian countries. While several studies have been conducted on growth and publishing of traditional LIS journals, the present study is perhaps an interesting attempt to make a comprehensive review of the phenomena. The finding of the recent study will be of interest to many LIS professionals, researchers and academicians as it demonstrate the growth of OA journals.

The article deals with publication activity as a part of the set of scientometric indicators used to assess national scientific potential. The international and national ratings of the publishing activity, in which the Ukrainian universities are involved, have been presented and analyzed, as well as with the help of some analytical and search tools of the scientific platform Web of Science, the publishing activity of the leading universities of the country have been studied. The dynamics of inclusion of Ukrainian higher education institutions in SCImago Institutional Ranking has been monitored and their most significant achievements have been determined by major groups of rating indicators – “Innovation”, “Social Impact” and “Research”. Identity of SCImago rating and all-Ukrainian Osvita.ua rating has been demonstrated for Ukrainian universities. The methodology and principles of CWTS Leiden Ranking and National Taiwan University Ranking, which are based on Web of Science, have been reviewed. With input from the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) Web of Science tool the publication activity of Ukrainian scientific organizations on the whole has been identified, and by means of “Result Analysis” tools the 2019 scientific periodicals have been identified where the researchers from four largest educational institutions in our country were published. It has been concluded that among Ukrainian scientists the trend towards increasing the total number of publications in periodicals with a low level of scientific influence and citation, as well as with their general misunderstanding of the importance of scientific and publication collaborations with researchers from foreign universities is still prevailing. Suggestions have been formulated to increase publication activity and to represent better the university's scientific results in international citation indices.

Introduction. This article describes the Xinhai Revolution in China. The authors, with the help of the Samara periodicals, highlighted the beginning, course and completion of the revolution, the activities of Sun Yatsen and Yuan Shikai, as well as the social aspects of this period. October 10, 2021, the legitimate successors of the Xinhai Revolution of the PRC and the Republic of China in Taiwan celebrate 110 years. The significance of the presented material is undoubted, since it is based on real historical sources – periodicals of 1911–1912. The purpose of the article is to determine the historical place of the Xinhai Revolution and its importance for the further history of China on the basis of newspaper materials. Materials and Methods. The most important in the study, based on the provisions formulated by the above authors, is the historical method, or, as it is also formulated, the principle of historicism. In carrying out this scientific research, the author relied primarily on special historical or general historical methods. Research Results. The study showed that starting with the Wuchansk uprising on October 10, 1911, metropolitan and provincial newspapers actively followed and published materials about the revolution. The outbreak of riots and uprisings in the provinces were reflected in detail by journalists and editors of Samara newspapers. The left-wing liberal party press, in contrast to the semi-official press, perceived the revolutionary movement of the popular masses in China positively. Discussion and Conclusion. Any revolution is always a large and controversial topic for scientific discussion. The Xinhai Revolution did not lead to the expected results, both among the people and among the bourgeoisie, the intelligentsia and the upper class. It was followed by further turmoil, which led first to the government of the Kuomintang, and then the Communists. It can be concluded that the theme of the Chinese Revolution of 1911–1912 is still relevant. The proposed provisions and conclusions create the prerequisites for further study of this problem.

During the Japanese Colonial period, he was active in Taiwan Literature Field as a lyric poet of &ldquo;SHIKI（四季）&rdquo;. In terms of artistic achievements, he was selected for the first Taiwan Governor-General’s Art Exhibition to paint covers and illustrations for many periodicals. After returning Japan, he continued to guide students in literature and arts, joined the public service system, and followed Aiba Yuryu(相葉有流) to write Haiku(俳句). A Japanese writer in Taiwan receiving little attention in the past, MANNAMI OSHIE was representative because of his creations and participation at that time. This article focuses on the discussion of MANNAMI OSHIE, delineating his life journey from birth to the receiving of &ldquo;youliu reward(有流賞) &rdquo;for writing haiku in his later years. This article employs first-hand materials including newspapers, doujinshi(同人誌), student registration materials, and name lists, trying to articulate MANNAMI OSHIE&rsquo;s life and works. Finally, this article also aims to place MANNAMI OSHIE under the context of&ldquo;Japanese writers in Taiwan&rdquo;and &ldquo;Taiwan-Japan&rdquo;HIKIAGE literature(引揚文學), in hope to make up for the less examined areas in the history of Taiwanese literature during the Japanese colonial period and give MANNAMI OSHIE a new historical evaluation.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>目的：台灣近數十年來因環境衛生改善A型肝炎盛行率逐年降低，1982年以後出生者大多無保護性抗體。供膳作業人員若感染急性A型肝炎，可能經由其製備之食物傳播造成A型肝炎群聚感染。本研究目的在探討2019-2021年於台灣南部某醫院進行週期性體檢之供膳作業人員A型肝炎血清偵測結果分析。</p> <p>方法：本研究採用化學冷光微粒免疫分析法Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay (CMIA)測定檢體，定義anti-HAV IgM Signal/Cutoff (S/CO) &ge;1.2為陽性、0.8&le;S/CO<1.2為邊緣陽性、S/CO<0.8為陰性。並進一步將陽性及邊緣陽性定義為anti-HAV IgM異常（IgM異常）。將個案年齡分為三組：20歲以下、21-40歲及41歲以上。進行羅吉斯迴歸分析性別及年齡分組與IgM異常之相關性。</p> <p>結果：2019-2021年共收案4,798件anti-HAV IgM檢體，其中供膳體檢佔4,532件(94%)。供膳體檢4,532件中，陽性12件(0.3%)，邊緣陽性27件(0.6%)。IgM異常者以女性及41歲以上組較多（女性30件 vs. 男性9件 [p=0.012]；41歲以上組31件 vs. 21-40歲組8件 [p<0.001]）。20歲以下組243人檢體皆為陰性。羅吉斯迴歸分析發現女性(AOR 2.66 [CI 1.26-5.63])及41歲以上組(AOR 5.23 [CI 2.40-11.42])是IgM異常的獨立影響因子。在IgM異常者之次分析中，檢體呈邊緣陽性之個案肝指數皆正常。檢體呈陽性之個案中有兩位肝指數異常，但這兩位供膳作業者並無臨床症狀且後續病毒檢測(HAV RT-PCR)皆為陰性，排除急性A型肝炎感染。</p> <p>結論：自2019至2021年週期性供膳作業人員體檢anti-HAV IgM篩檢陽性率為0.9%，但絕大多數排除急性A型肝炎。其中女性及41歲以上者較易有偽陽性之情形。</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><p>Purpose: In Taiwan, the prevalence of hepatitis A has decreased since 1982 thanks to improved sanitation. Most of the citizens born after 1982 do not have protective antibodies against hepatitis A. Protection is of crucial importance for food handlers as hepatitis A in this population cause cluster infection. The study aims to evaluate the seroprevalence of hepatitis A among food handlers receiving periodical health examinations during the period from 2019 to 2021 in our hospital in Tainan.</p> <p>Method: We collected 4,798 anti-HAV IgM specimens during the study period, of 4,532 specimens (94%) were from food handlers receiving health examinations. Chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) method was used to analyze anti-HAV IgM. We defined anti-HAV IgM signal/cutoff (S/CO)&ge;1.2 as positive, 0.8&le;S/CO<1.2 as borderline, and S/CO<0.8 as negative. Positive and borderline results were further defined as abnormal anti-HAV IgM. We separated the participants into 3 age groups, <20 years old; 21-40 years old, and >41 years old. Multivariate logistic regression model was applied to evaluate the association between sex, age groups, and abnormal anti-HAV IgM.</p> <p>Results: Among the 4,532 anti-HAV IgM specimens, 12 positive results (0.3%) and 27 borderline results (0.6%) were detected. A greater cases of abnormal anti-HAV IgM was detected in the female group and the >41 years old group (30 in the female group vs. 9 in the male group [p=0.012]; 31 in the >41 years old group vs. 8 in the 21-40 years old group [p<0.001]). There was no abnormal anti-HAV IgM in the <20 years old group. Adjusting for multiple covariates, we found that being female and an aged over 41 years old were independent risk factors for abnormal anti-HAV IgM. Results of subgroup analysis indicated that all subjects in the borderline group had normal liver enzymes. In the positive group, two subjects had abnormal liver enzymes. However, they received HAV RT-PCR and the results were negative, suggesting the absence of acute hepatitis A.</p> <p> Conclusion: Our survey on anti-HAV IgM among food handlers receiving health examinations during the period from 2019 to 2021 indicated a 0.9% abnormality rate. However, acute hepatitis A was excluded in most of the examined cases. Females and those aged over 41 years old were identified to be more likely to have anti-HAV IgM false positive.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

The aim of this study is to propose a new term "prosperous food (盛食)" instead of "surplus food (剩食)", in order to change the concept of consumers. Since the term “surplus” imply a negative image while the term “prosperous” owed the positive image. This can reduce the wasting food in our society and build a new business model. The start-up plan wishes to build a prosperous food restaurant and at this space can sale prosperous food directly and also the food of re-produce prosperous food. This restaurant plays the role to distribute the prosperous of farm products to consumers. Then we also to hold the prosperous food holiday market and recruit consumers to harvest farm product in farm periodically. We hope we can promote this model over Taiwan after we stabilize this model in Tainan first.

There are four shelf-incising submarine canyons off SW Taiwan. They are distributed along the active continental margin, which is periodically flushed by gravity flows. Shelf-incising canyons, such as Kaoping Canyon, may not only be affected by oceanographic conditions but also by extreme climate change due to the direct input of river sediment. In the canyons along the SW margin of Taiwan, strong sedimentary flows are reflected in highly abundant nutrient input and physical disturbances. The Kaoping Canyon possesses habitats that promote biodiversity but that are sensitive to environmental change. The aims of this study are to review the canyons along the SW margin of Taiwan and to present their geomorphological features and associated ecosystems.

Stock tape reading involves surveilling stock prices once in a while and recording stock prices. The method of observing stock prices may be television or stock exchange. The time step for recoding stock prices is every stock user’s experience and their theory, perhaps 3 min or 2 h and so on. As an example, the Taiwan stock market starts at 9:00 a.m. to 13:30 p.m. It will have a 4 h operating time. Splitting the 4 h operating time for tape reading is the skill of stock users. The stock price sequence generated by tape reading can be predicted by stock users, but finally, it is the stock user’s experience. Therefore, the meaning of tape reading is to record the stock price, but its concept should have no prediction purpose. This study used thread technology and proposed a tape-reading method with web scraping. This method can periodically scrape stock prices and generate a stock price sequence to Excel file. This application can satisfy the demand of these stock users, who are called day trading users. Because these day trading users want to gain stock price sequences minute by minute, rather than the stock exchange format day by day, and also ones which are better than the those provided by the stock website service, because its stock sequence format is limited and not normalized, these day trading users think that minute-by-minute stock price sequences are very clear to forecast. This study implemented the prior scheme and designed the GUI to query a company’s stock price and its stock news, even per second, etc., and how long it took to update the stock price, and the GUI also included a time-up feature to stop scraping stock prices if users just wanted to scrape stock prices periodically.

The present study demonstrates that the complicated genetic structure of the hilly lineage of the Neolucanus swinhoei complex was driven by its biological features and habitat requirements as well as hindrance by the CMR during periodical Pleistocene glaciations. The results revealed a tendency of geographical differentiation and major and sub- lineage divergences before and after the Riss glaciation, followed by stable population growth during Würm glaciation. At least four refugia were inferred for N. swinhoei during the Riss–Würm glaciations. The ancestral haplotype retention in the cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene and compensated substitution in 16S rRNA gene is a possible evolutionary scenario resulting in the inconsistent evolution pattern between COI and 16S rRNA gene coupled with the long-distance dispersal of N. swinhoei. Although the CMR did hinder the dispersal of N. swinhoei, its ancestors may have dispersed to eastern Taiwan through the northern and southern low mountains of the CMR before the Riss glaciation. Our finding suggests that the population growth in the Würm glaciation led a dispersal back to western Taiwan, which is contrast to the more common dispersal scenario from western Taiwan to eastern populations proposed in other studies.

Abstract In this study, submonthly wave patterns under the periodically fluctuating Japan–South China Sea (JSCS) pattern were separated into intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) westerly and easterly phases. The composite results showed that the wave patterns in the westerly JSCS high and low phases were more effectively organized and situated in a more intense monsoon trough than their counterparts in the easterly phase. Tropical cyclones (TCs) tended to occur over cyclonic systems of the wave patterns where minimal vertical shear axes were also located. More TCs formed in the westerly JSCS phases near areas where maximal moisture convergence was located. Taiwan experienced heavier rainfall during the westerly JSCS phases because the ISO enhanced the monsoon troughs for the cyclonic system of the wave pattern to develop near Taiwan in the westerly JSCS high phase. Additionally, in the westerly JSCS low phase, a stronger southeasterly mean flow generated by the ISO steered the wave pattern and TCs farther west and thus closer to Taiwan. Therefore, the ISO influenced the mean state circulation systems and then steered TCs and the wave patterns to affect Taiwan’s weather.

“Independent Periodicals,” which so called non-mainstream publications(Independent publish, or zine, etc.) has not yet comes to common consensus on titles or styles.This dissertation focuses on the autonomy of cultural production through interviews with actual production systems, i.e. producers and promoters, and viewers, i.e. readers and platforms here in Taiwan, from 2011 to 2014. At this point(2014), “Independent Periodicals” still vary in the of meanings or types. Many factors determine “how independence” the publication will be. It depends on what contents producers chosen, how devoted are them, and whether their self-positioning transformed into collective values. "Independent Periodicals" differ from profitable mainstream productions in content, division, distribution, and circulation. “Objects” (the hard copies) are people’s choices, and also the key to people''s encounters. The rareness minority and non-profit characteristics, not by genres nor tastes, mutually generate both “Independent Periodicals” and its readers and communities into each other. The connections and confluences in people has overflown out of social inhabitations, independent bookstores/publishers, independent media/newspapers. When it comes to the meaning of “independence,” it changes through time. Publishing material and literature environment are always changing. The freedom of publishing bursted radically from 80s to 90s in Taiwan. After 90s, the popularisation of publishing increases more through digitisation on the internet. Styles and forms varies in “Independent Periodicals.” From text to image, or from photography or creative writing, or from personal blogs to zine, or from self-publishing to on-demand printing, etc. One could find every copy under different advocacy. Some might be personal expression or some might be community aggregations. Communities have been long existing producers in independent publishing, people gather from underground music, independent media, film critics, concerned local residents, or green agriculture farmers. They consider their actions and voices could establish a balance with tilted mercantilism in Taiwan. In this specific field of cultural production, the physical existence of “Independent Periodicals” becomes as an index, leading us to find the specific space and time, materials and views of those producers and readers. Identifying is the main factor for those to devote themselves in producing. It creates a different and random atmosphere of distribution and circulation from mainstream book or magazine publishers. There is no limitation. There is a lot of fun and self-sufficient. They do not care about scale or competitions. They are the word “diversity.” Call it “zine,” “誌,” or “紙本,” it would not fix it’s meaning on anything. “Independence,” the only belief, leads “Independent Periodicals” towards autonomy of cultural production.

In the newspaper in Taiwan during the Japanese-ruled period, “same culture, same race” (同文同種 in Chinese) is used to connect China and Japan, but few people knows about how this key word is created. Therefore, this study focuses on analyzing the articles using “same culture, same race” in Taiwan during the Japanese-ruled period. “Taiwan Nichinichi Shinpo” and National Taiwan Library Image System for Periodicals of the Japanese-ruled Period are used in this study for searching and collecting articles including “same culture, same race”. Search result shows “same culture, same race” are published during A.D.1898 and A.D.1940. By analysis of the relation between issue of article and time, it is observed that “same culture, same race” is used to ease up the impact of war to relation between China and Japan after Marco Polo Bridge Incident. When analyzing articles including “same culture, same race” in “Taiwan Nichinichi Shinpo” and National Taiwan Library Image System for Periodicals of the Japanese-ruled Period, it is found that the targeted objects of “same culture, same race” is Japan and Qing dynasty/China which includes the concept of expecting peace in East Asia. Before Marco Polo Bridge Incident, most of articles including “same culture, same race” is talking about business and trading. However, during Marco Polo Bridge Incident and World War II, articles including “same culture, same race” mentioned the cooperation between China and communists. That is, the articles including “same culture, same race” have different appearance before and after Marco Polo Bridge Incident. Furthermore, by using “same culture, same race”, besides linking the relation between China and Japan, the more important thing is to distinguish the difference between eastern culture and western culture, yellow man and white man. From above reason, the shape of Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere can be formed. As the special position of Taiwan in the relation between China and Japan, it is found “same culture, same race” is not only for external – China, but also for internal - Taiwan. That is, when an article including “same culture, same race” is published, it is not only to describe the relation between China and Japan, but also describing the relation between Japan and Taiwan. During the Japanese-ruled period, the relation between Japan and Taiwan was using as the basis of the relation between China and Japan, and is described as “same culture, same race”. It shows in external relationship of Japan, the colony, Taiwan, is regarding as a part of its metropolitan state, Japan, so as to link the relation between China and Japan. To sum up, “same culture, same race” in Taiwan during the Japanese-ruled period have its complexity due to the issues it involves. Besides, because of its change of appearance by time, the interpretation of “same culture, same race” becomes special. By discussing “same culture, same race” in Taiwan during the Japanese-ruled period, besides exploring a direction of reviewing the relation between race and space during the Japanese-ruled period, what’s more, by reviewing “same culture, same race”, it also can be used to realize articles on newspaper in Taiwan under the political relation of China and Japan.

Existentialism had been introduced to Taiwan through 施翠峰’s translation of Albert Camus’s fiction L'Etranger in the 1950s. It had given rise to a great mass fervor of Existentialism in Taiwan literary arena until 1970’s. During those 30 years, there were different quantities of translations and introductions about Existentialist philosophy and literature. Furthermore, there were many critics who analyzing Taiwan literature in the concepts of Existentialism. They even quoted Jean-Paul Satre, Albert Camus and Franz Kafka’s ideas in their fictional works, prose, poetry, supplements, magazines. Most of the previous argument about how Existentialism had been brought to Taiwan and how it had influenced the style of writing were general; few of their discourses were based on the cautious investigation about publication, magazines and supplements. Moreover, many scholars ignored the important phenomenon of inter-regional communication in Taiwan and Hong Kong. The literary and artistic thoughts, which had already been verified in some research, were largely overlooked. Therefore, we should take the condition of Existentialist writing in Hong Kong as an object of study as well, and observe how it interacted with Existentialist writing in Taiwan. In this research, the thesis establishes the communicational phenomenon of Existentialism between Taiwan and Hong Kong. I will begin by investigating publications, magazines and supplements, and take Satre, Camus and Kafka as the main objects of this research. Secondly, I will interpret the reason why Existentialist works had been translated and discussed extensively in Taiwan and Hong Kong from 1950s through 1970s. While highlighting the various viewpoints of social milieu, the translation’s sources and the literary commercialization. The so-called “Existentialist writing” in Taiwan and Hong Kong can be interpreted as “general- Existentialist influence.” In conclusion, the thesis paper will give the reasons for the interpretation, while articulating the Existentialist influence on Taiwan and Hong Kong’s writings.

Abstract Literary writings for children usually shows its vitality through books or periodicals﹐and also can be found its literary features in children''s writing. From the development of juvenile publications﹐there comes a conclusion that the negligence and less circulation cause its running difficult. According to the categories of juvenile publications﹐most of periodicals are general writings. The state-runned periodicals occupy most of markets so that they can exist up to now. The most famous periodical is “Kids''Monthly” started by editors of children''s writing from director of education Taiwan Province in October 1986. The state-runned and general features make “Kids''Monthly” into every elementary school and have profound influence to children. This research including six chapters is to study “Kids''Monthly” writings how to express its theme.The first chapter is to explain the motive of study, find out the reference books, study on the manner, the step, the purpose, and the range. The second chapter-divided three parts to study the reason-why it is published and its development in the future. From the third to fifth chapter-is to analyze the theme, the material , the characters , the background and the plot etc. The sixth chapter-is conclusion. This research found out the importance of “Kids''Monthly” in juvenile publications. The writings tended to be short and simple. The “After-Modern”periodical in 1903 won''t have any influence on “Kids''Monthly”At last, the researcher suggests the “Kids''Monthly”periodicals can be collected to form a book so that it will give the actual assistance and confirmations to the writers.

If vehicle braking system can function and work securely is the most basic issue for driving safe. Due to rapid continous growth of the number of vehicles in Taiwan, general administration institute of roads and traffic partially opens some vehicle inspection supervision businesses to domestic companies to enhance the public service. For example, cars annual inspection routines could be executed by the entrusted units, and entrust some automobile factories for implementation of inspection business for licensing new cars. This study is to establish the sound checking system for the brake test systems of road supervision authorities. And explore the different loading rates and the effect of hysteresis of loading how to affect the identification accuracy of the brake test systems. This study was to evaluate the accuracy of the two existing brake testers according to the analysis of the data collected from inspection units. In this study, we took into account the brake test values from two brakes of different design concepts and measurement mechanisms, the opinion from professionals actually undertaking inspection, and the proposals from experts and scholars. Afterwards, we implemented the study of brake force differences meeting the feasibility of data collection. Experimental results and quality assurance statistics show that b-type brake force test device has better accuracy. However, prone to shock effect in case of no load protection facilities, it is not suitable the brake tester for large vehicles. This research could provide important reference for the existing inspection processes of the brake test, and better safeguard to the safety of owners and passers-bys.

Good governance is the foundation of democratic politics, and it had shown many different styles in Public administration. To explore the comprehensive meaning of “Governance”, this study tried to use content analysis approach to investigate the history of Social sciences journal literature in Taiwan. This analysis aimed to merge the data from beginning, procedure, transition on the basis of each key time point and prospect future development, using qualitative, quantitative and social network analysis. We collected many keywords and concepts and the different interpretations from Taiwan''s journal literatur, in order to tease out clear and complete "governance" appearance. Governance should be developed and reformed by the time changes, and is not on the basis of nations as an only object. To integrate public, private organization and voluntary groups as a network could build a strong civil society. The government then becomes a relative powerful organization to collaborate with other organizations. Based on the“Governance”concept, the government can adjust their role and set boundary between state and society. Under such concept, a public governance that citizens seek for can be built. The more deep theoretical analysis was conducted, the better model of governance could be built to lead Taiwan''s civil society.
