Hall, Michelle Louise. « Shop local : building a 'local' tribe through consumption experiences in servicescapes ». Queensland University of Technology, 2008. http://eprints.qut.edu.au/16640/.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

The notion of community remains an important concern, for individuals, in urban planning practice, and more recently in consumer research. This thesis research explores community at the junction of these areas, through a grounded study of the consumption practices of a place based consumer tribe that exists within an inner city suburb undergoing urban renewal. The process of urban renewal is positioned as a means to revitalise under-utilised inner city areas, and broaden opportunities for city residents and visitors to experience an inner city lifestyle. It can also be seen as a standardising project that commodifies diversity and devalues existing communities and is associated with gentrification. Both perspectives can obscure the possibility that consumption practices can be used to build community like connections. This thesis applies a framework of literature from marketing and consumer research to an urban renewal context, to explore this area of ambiguity. The result of this exploration is a grounded theory of assuming a 'local' identity through consumption experiences in servicescapes. This thesis argues that consumers seek out individual servicescapes for the value experiences that they offer, which can be identity defining. In particular the interaction generated through these experiences can work to build tribal connections to, and within, that servicescape. These consumption experiences can also be used to make assumptions regarding the identity of others; both of the businesses themselves, and the individuals encountered within them. The tribal connections these experiences may generate can have individual benefits in that they can build into existing social networks, but through repetition and shared experiences, may also link an individual to a broader place based community. This thesis also proposes that servicescapes can work to encourage this process, by encouraging identity defining consumption experiences. Like individuals, businesses can come to be assumed to be tribe members and this 'localness' can become a symbolic operant resource that is valued by the tribe. As key sites in which members of the 'local' tribe reinforce their commitment to the tribe, locally owned businesses may benefit by being more likely to be chosen over their 'non-local' competitors. However, as an element of their tribal membership these businesses have a moral responsibility to reinforce the collective ethic of the tribe and assist in integrating new tribe members. In this way they can become ambassadors for the identity of the community, communicating the shared values of the tribe to members and non-members alike. Such a place based tribe is primarily based on public interaction, thus the servicescapes and public spaces that link them can come to work as a theatre in which the tribe is manifested and its rituals performed. As the experience of a sense of shared value is repeated across a range of geographically united servicescapes, this shared experience can be displaced from any one servicescape and generalised into a localness experience that is grounded within the geographic community. It is here that the physical and ideological aspects of the community combine, and the experienced value of a shared identity that originated in a servicescape based consumption experience can come to symbolise the values of the greater community itself. These research findings have implications for inner city urban renewal developments, suggesting that the increased availability of consumption activities that are associated with urban renewal may also be considered as an increased opportunity to build place based consumer tribes. This thesis proposes ways of encouraging this process.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Companies all over the world are seeking ways to address sustainability related issues, both to meet external expectations and as a way to find opportunities for growth and innovation. Many attempts have been made in providing descriptions and guidance in how sustainability can be adopted within corporations. However, much of earlier research has focused on the manufacturing industry where materials and production processes are central in the concept. How sustainability can be incorporated in service industries, more specifically by IT service providers (ITSPs), is a somewhat unexplored area even though the potential for sustainability related risks as well as opportunities are high. Previous research in this area that has set out to construct models of this phenomenon has not managed to consider the characteristics of ITservice providers to the fullest. This study has investigated how ITSPs can incorporate sustainability into business practices through a multiple-case study with four ITSP and one technical consulting company. The data has been collected through interviews and document analysis, and analyzed both separately nd by comparison. Additional interviews were held with experts and professionals with relevant knowledge to strengthen the findings. This study resulted in model that can serve as an analytical tool and presentation format hen incorporating sustainability in business practices within the IT Professional service industry. The results showed that incorporation of sustainability in practices needs to be divided in two main categories; incorporating sustainability in internal operations and incorporating sustainability in customer offerings. Within these categories the study identified a number of activities that ITSPs can undertake to incorporate sustainability and what outcomes they may have. It was concluded that the activities in within internal operations were primarily focused n building trust towards customers. The study also showed that incorporating ustainability in customer offerings can be done to different extent with different outcomes. The critical activities to successfully incorporate sustainability in customer offerings has been described in the study and visualized in a 3-level map to further provide guidance. A main finding within this category was that interaction with the customer is crucial to successfully deploy service offerings that incorporate sustainability. The results can be generalized to other ITSPs in similar settings and parts can also be argued to be adoptable to other companies in the professional service industry that rely on intense technology.

Résumé :

Introduction The paradigm shift in manufacturing that Industry 4.0 brings forth with new advanced technologies and the rapid growth of sensing and controlling technologies enable further visualization and optimization that can contribute to achievingimproved decision-making in manufacturing. A significant new capability is the ability to construct a Digital Twinthat connects the physical and virtual space. However, there are still confusion and obscurity regarding what Digital Twinis and how it can becreated and then used to create value for the company. Therefor the purpose of the thesis is to examine how manufacturing companies can utilize the implementation of Digital Twinand assess Digital Twinin a shop-floor. ➢RQ1: How can DT be beneficial to increase business value in a manufacturing company? ➢RQ2: What changes need to be done in the shop-floor to implement Digital Twin? Methodology A literature review was conducted to provide previous researchand contextwithin the area of Digital Twin. A multiple-case studywas performed at three case companies to gain meaningful insight from a real-world perspective, semi-structured interviews, dialogs, and observations were conductedat the case companies. The analysis was then performed by examining similarities, and dissimilarities between theoretical and empirical data, as well as opportunities in theoretical findings that correspond with challenges in empirical findings. Frame of Reference The literature review increased the authors’ understanding of the research topic and gave context to the concept of Digital Twin. The review is mainly focused on the Digital Twintechnologyand how it is constructed, as well as the applicationsareas. Empirical Findings The empirical findings provide an overview of boththe current and future state of the case companies in relation to organizational, operational, and technological factors. Additionally, it provides a deeper understanding of how shop-floor management is designed at one of the case companies. Analysis The combination of the Frame of Reference and Empirical Findings contributewith important insight on the potential benefits that can be created through the utilizationof Digital Twin, as well as what is requiredin the shop-floor to enable implementation ofDigital Twin. Conclusions The value that can be created utilizing Digital Twinis outlinedand a clearer definition is proposed to avoid misunderstandings and confusion. Requirements that need to be achieved for a successful implementation arecovered as well. A future recommendation is measuring resources and effort in relation to the created value of a Digital Twin.

Résumé :

Energy conservation is a major concern in todays data centers, which are the 21st century data processing factories, and where large and complex software systems such as distributed data management stores run and serve billions of users. The two main drivers of this major concern are the pollution impact data centers have on the environment due to their waste heat, and the expensive cost data centers incur due to their enormous energy demand. Among the many subsystems of data centers, the storage system is one of the main sources of energy consumption. Among the many types of storage systems, key/value stores happen to be the widely used in the data centers. In this work, I investigate energy saving techniques that enable a consistent hash based key/value store save energy during low activity times, and whenever there is an opportunity to reuse the waste heat of data centers.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

A CONWIP (Constant Work-In-Progress) system is basically a hybrid system with a PUSH-PULL interface at the first machine in the line. This research addresses the most general case of a cyclic CONWIP system by incorporating two additional constraints over earlier studies namely; stochastic processing times and limited intermediate storage. One of the main issues in the design of a CONWIP system is the WIP level 'M', to be maintained. This research proposes an iterative procedure to determine this optimal level. The second main issue is the optimization of the line by determining an appropriate job sequence. This research assumes a 'permutational' scheduling policy and proposes an iterative approach to find the best sequence. The approach utilizes a controlled enumerative approach called the Fast Insertion Heuristic (FIH) coupled with a method to appraise the quality of every enumeration at each iteration. This is done by using a modified version of the Floyd's algorithm, to determine the cycle time (or Flow time) of a partial/full solution. The performance measures considered are the Flow time and the Interdeparture time (inverse of throughput). Finally, both the methods suggested for the two subproblems, are tested through computer implementations to reveal their proficiency.

Résumé :

Syfte – Denna studie syftar till att bidra med en ökad förstaåelse om vad små och medelstora företag (SMF:s) efterfrågar och på vilket sätt som innovationsintermediärer kan få SMF:s att vilja delta i samarbetsprojekt. Metod – Vi genomförde en kvalitativ enskild fallstudie vid en innovationsintermediär och primärdata insamlades genom 39 intervjuer, fördelat på fyra olika typer av informantgrupper: (1) anställda vid innovationsintermediären, (2) SMF:s, (3) stora företag, och (4) övriga aktörer (t.ex. finansiärer och myndigheter). Dataanalysen bestod av en tematisk analys för att identifiera SMF:s behov och hur innovationsintermediären kan tillgodose behoven. Resultat – Vårt resultatavsnitt är indelat i tre delar: (1) först presenterar vi sex olika värden som innovationsintermediärer skapar för SMF:s vid samarbetsprojekt, (2) i den andra delen presenterar vi elva attribut som gör det attraktivt att delta i samarbetsprojekt för SMF:s på företagsspecifik nivå, samarbetsprojektnivå och innovationsekosystemnivå, och (3) vi presenterar en processbeskrivning om hur innovationsintermediärer skulle kunna skapa attraktiva samarbetsprojekt för SMF:s. Teoretiska och praktiska bidrag – Denna studie bidrar till en ökad förståelse för innovationsintermediärer genom att belysa vad som bidar till att samarbetsprojekt med en innovationsintermediär är attraktiva för SMF:s, vilket inte uppmärksammats i befintlig litteratur. Studien understödjer även tidigare funna värden och identifierar nya värden som en innovationsintermediär kan skapa för SMF:s, för att sedan sammankoppla dessa till de attraktiva attribut som vi funnit. Studien har även ett praktiskt bidrag i form av en processbeskrivning, som kan hjälpa företagsledningar och beslutstagare hos innovationsintermediärer att förstå hur attraktiva samarbetsprojekt för SMF:s skulle kunna utformas. Begräsningar och framtida forskning – Detta är en enskild fallstudie och har således endast undersökt en innovationsintermediär, i detta fall ett forskningsinstitut, vilket kan påverka studiens generaliserbarhet. Därav rekommenderar vi framtida forskning att fortsatt undersöka frågeställningen genom en flerfallstudie eller studier som undersöker andra innovationsintermediärer.
Purpose – This study aims to contribute with an increased understanding of what small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) demand and how innovation intermediaries can increase the willingness among SMEs to participate in collaborative projects. Method – We conducted a qualitative single case study at an innovation intermediary. Primary data was collected through 39 interviews, divided into four different types of groups: (1) employees at the innovation intermediary, (2) SMEs, (3) incumbent firms, and (4) other actors (e.g., financiers and authorities). The findings were generated by using a thematic analysis to identify SMEs’ needs and how the innovation intermediary can meet those needs. Findings – Our findings section is divided into three parts: (1) first we present six different values that innovation intermediaries create for SMEs in collaborative projects, (2) in the second part we discuss eleven attributes that make it attractive to participate in collaborative projects for SMEs at company-specific level, collaborative project level and innovation ecosystem level, and (3) we provide a roadmap of how innovation intermediaries could create attractive collaborative projects for SMEs. Implications – This study contributes to an increased understanding of innovation intermediaries by highlighting what contributes to collaborative projects with an innovation intermediary being attractive to SMEs. This has not been observed in the existing literature. The study also supports previously found values, identifying new values that an innovation intermediary can create for SMEs, and linking both these values to the attractive attributes that we identified. Based upon the findings a roadmap was created to offer top management and decision-makers at innovation intermediaries a tool to design collaborative projects attractive to SMEs. Limitations and future research – This is an individual case study and has thus only examined one innovation intermediary, in this case, a research institute, which may affect the generalizability of the study. Therefore, we recommend future research to investigate our research questions through multiple case studies or studies examining other innovation intermediaries.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Multi-disciplinary ship synthesis models and multi-objective optimization techniques are increasingly being used in ship design. Multi-disciplinary models allow designers to break away from the traditional design spiral approach and focus on searching the design space for the best overall design instead of the best discipline-specific design. Complex design problems such as these often have high levels of uncertainty associated with them, and since most optimization algorithms tend to push solutions to constraint boundaries, the calculated "best" solution might be infeasible if there are minor uncertainties related to the model or problem definition. Consequently, there is a need to address uncertainty in optimization problems to produce effective and reliable results. This thesis focuses on adding a third objective, uncertainty, to the effectiveness and cost objectives already present in a multi-disciplinary ship synthesis model. Uncertainty is quantified using a "confidence of success" (CoS) calculation based on the mean value method. CoS is the probability that a design will satisfy all constraints and meet performance objectives. This work proves that the CoS concept can be applied to synthesis models to estimate uncertainty early in the design process. Multiple sources of uncertainty are realistically quantified and represented in the model in order to investigate their relative importance to the overall uncertainty. This work also presents methods to encourage a uniform distribution of points across the Pareto front. With a well defined front, designs can be selected and refined using a gradient based optimization algorithm to optimize a single objective while holding the others fixed.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Content: Leather manufacturing involves discharge of large quantities of solid and liquid wastes. While efficient recycling methods and in-plant controls have considerably reduced the discharge of obnoxious liquid streams, satisfactory methods to the solid waste management still elude the leather manufacturers. Landfilling is an easy option for the disposal of solid wastes like chrome shavings and trimmings, but is subjected to stringent environmental regulations because of the presence of chromium in these materials. Considerable efforts have been made to recycle the chrome containing wastes by methods such as incineration, pyrolysis and alkaline or enzyme hydrolysis. These recycling processes, however, are seldom complete without further environmental problems. Unfortunately, in such recycling processes the inherent fibrous structure of these materials gets completely destroyed. Applications based on the fibrous nature of the shavings and trimmings are presently limited but various possibilities are being explored continuously. An efficient way of utilization of these fibrous waste materials may be to combine them in a suitable form with synthetic polymers to give composite materials. Short fiber reinforcement of polymers is an important area in polymer composites where both synthetic and natural fibers are effectively used. Footwear has become a basic necessity like food, shelter and clothes. Soles are bottom components of footwear and some important polymeric materials used in footwear fabrication are last, soles and Insoles. This research aims at reducing the solid waste (Chrome shavings) generated by leather industry and reusing them as low cost shoe components such as soles and insole material. In this research, the footwear components were prepared using chrome shaving (tannery solid waste), EPDM (ethylene propylene monomer rubber) and isoprene rubber with different inorganic oxide/hydroxide nano particle based fillers. In this study, soles are prepared by using strap cutting machine, two roll mill and compression moulding machine. The soling materials made characterised using FT-IR and SEM and tested for mechanical properties. Due to good mutual compatibility between Isoprene, EPDM and leather fibre with inorganic nano clay based fillers, the composites are well in terms of all the physic-mechanical behaviours like hardness, density, abrasion resistance and grain crack suitable for shoe sole application. Take-Away: 1. Ethylene propylene monomer rubber and leather fibre with inorganic nano clay based fillers, the composites are well in terms of all the physic-mechanical behaviours like hardness, density, abrasion resistance and grain crack suitable for shoe sole application. 2.

Résumé :

Organizations operate in a dynamic environment in which they are faced with an ongoing dilemma of maximizing profit and meeting the demand from society to take social responsibility. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has gained an increase in interest with its intended aim of corporations taking responsibility for how the business affects the society within an economic, environmental and social perspective. However, its intended aim is being hindered by the idea of a trade-off between profit and social responsibility in CSR theory and practice. We suggest that social entrepreneurship can have an impact on CSR in moving beyond these trade-offs and can furthermore bridge the gap between business’ and society’s demands. Thereby, our thesis has the aim to investigate how CSR research can move beyond the presumed trade-offs through the impact of social entrepreneurship theory. For this purpose, we have chosen a conceptual research approach in order to build a conceptual model that can serve as a theoretical contribution and an inspiration for further practical use. The model suggests that components of social entrepreneurship can be linked to strategic CSR dimensions and, therefore, impact the outcome by creating both economic and social value.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This thesis analyzes the long run relationship between stock markets and macroeconomic variables, such as the real industrial production index, consumer price index, money supply, and long-term government bonds. By the use of recent developments in cointegration methodologies a larger set of countries is analyzed due to mitigation of the issue where variables are integrated of different orders. Based on a present value model, this thesis applies an ARDL model and conducts the bounds testing procedure for analysis of cointegrating relationships among the variables. Complemented by the popular Johansen cointegration methodology, it is found that the variables are cointegrated for all of the twelve countries. Hence, the present value model provides a theoretical explanation of the long run connection between stock markets and macroeconomic variables. Finally, the long run relationship is estimated using both FMOLS and DOLS. Results show that real economic activity, proxied by the real industrial production index, enters a positive relationship with the stock market indices, and so does money supply. In contrast, the consumer price index and long-term government bonds enter a negative relationship with the stock market indices. Hence, this thesis adds to the literature by applying new methodologies to the topic, through which a larger set of countries can be analyzed, and by further analyzing the long run relationship between stock markets and real economic activity.

Résumé :

In light of growing international awareness and interests in the ‘frozen continent’ of Antarctica, the topic of Values in Antarctica has recently gained more research interest. Due to the complexity of the concept of value, values in Antarctica have been approached from many different perspectives, including Antarctic wilderness and aesthetic values, values manifested in Antarctic law or value based behavioural changes through the Antarctic experience. The present thesis addresses values as human connections to Antarctica with a focus on Antarctic policy-making. The investigation contained three analytical stages that built on each other. The first stage has been an interdisciplinary literature review examining what values are and how values can be studied, but also considered values in the context of environment, human behaviour and policy. Value and value-related concepts were selected in view of a potential application to the Antarctic. The second analytical stage involved a general framework analysis of the Antarctic Treaty System to identify key elements and structures in the system suitable for a study of Antarctic values, and to develop the research questions. The third stage of analysis included empirical investigations of two Antarctic case studies. Key elements that influence the Antarctic Treaty System in a way that is relevant for a study of Antarctic values include external factors and events, action situations and actors participating in these action situations. Antarctic Treaty Meeting of Experts appeared as an action situation particularly suitable for a study of Antarctic values. The last two Antarctic Treaty Meeting of Experts on ship-borne tourism and climate change have been chosen as case studies, presenting two topical issues in Antarctic policy. Using discourse analysis based on documents submitted to the meetings and the meetings’ reports, values that are driving the discourses were to be identified through structures and patterns in the discourses. Further, based on the discourse analysis following three research questions were to be answered: What role is ascribed to Antarctica concerning contemporary issues? Where and why do conflicts arise in the ATS policy-making process that are based on conflicting values? What changes in the underlying belief-systems are driving policy-making processes and what has caused the change? Based on the literature, values are defined as internalised codes that affect behaviour and include judgements on what is good and desirable. Through the framework analysis it was identified that Antarctic policy involves a multi-layered system of different value systems, which was considered in the two case studies. For both case studies, values in the discourses were mostly identified based on Schwartz’s basic human value theory. The most prominent human value that drives both the ship-born tourism and the climate change discourse is security. Both discourses are further motivated by the conservation of the Antarctic environment and its associated ecosystems. Other values, such as power and conformity with rules were also clearly expressed in the discourses. With regard to the research questions, both case studies discussed Antarctica from two different perspectives, as a hazardous place for human activities and as a place vulnerable to any kind of changes. Conflicts in the ship-borne tourism discourse were more obvious, while the climate change discourse within the expert meeting proceeded in consensus. Value-based changes that are evident in changes in belief-systems underlying Antarctic policy-making could not be identified. This thesis argues, based on careful consideration of documents, that values play a crucial role in Antarctic policy-making at a number of different scales: individuals, political actors, and governmental levels. Values were found to be at the core of most, if not all, conflicts within the Antarctic system. Finally, this thesis provides the first understanding of the values held by the various stakeholders involved in governing and use of the Antarctic, which is crucial for further decision-making and research.

Résumé :

This thesis provides a means to estimate the physical and performance characteristics of a preliminary cruise ship design. The techniques utilized to estimate these characteristics are showcased in the user-friendly interface known as the Cruise Ship Analysis Tool (CSAT). Using the CSAT, the implications that design feature decisions in the preliminary design stage have on a cruise ship’s profitability is analyzed. Then, the most profitable design feature assemblage among a finite number of varying design feature combinations is estimated and compared among cruise ship designs with different passenger carrying capacities. Profitability is analyzed using the measure of merit (MOM) known as net present value (NPV). If a preliminary cruise ship design has a positive NPV at a reliable rate of return and ship operating life, the design is considered to be a profitable investment if implemented. The greater the NPV, the more profitable the investment is considered to be.

Texte intégral

Résumé :

Considering there is a void in the literature for the social effects of giving and receiving respect, this thesis presented important new evidence that the experience of respect can elevate mood and openness values. My findings support my argument that respect is a social commodity that has value. As societies endeavour to nudge their citizens in a more prosocial direction, a focus on respect could prove useful in schools, public services, and corporations and NGOs and civil society in general. In our current political climate, we see evidence of increased polarization of public views. To tackle environmental and social problems, we overlook the importance of respect in mood and values at our peril. My thesis embarks on a journey to develop the respect construct via a qualitative study, and thereafter to investigate the effects on self-esteem, mood, values and prosocial behaviour when respect is received, and given. Four quantitative studies measure the effects on the receiver, while one study measured the effects on participants administering respect to others. I conducted a meta-analysis on the similar studies to determine the results more conclusively. Still, there are other questions waiting to be addressed. For instance, how much respect must be received for the recipient to feel respected? Are there stages or levels of feeling respected? Is there a threshold at which accumulated respect creates the feeling of respect? Is that threshold static, or is it a moving target that requires progressively more stimuli in order to push the recipient into a feeling of being respected? How long do the feelings of respect and being respected last?

Résumé :

The influence of nutrient limitation in legumes and non-legumes was studied in the field, on nutrient poor and nutrient rich sites in the CFR in the western Cape of South Africa. 6 species of legume and 11 species of non-legume, along with their corresponding soils were taken for macro and micronutrient analysis. Results indicate that legume soils were more nutrient rich than non-legume soils, with Na, K, Mg, Ca and C being higher in at least one of the legume soils. pH was significantly lower in 2 of the legume soils. Resultantly, this enhancing nutrient availability. Legume plants were more nutrient rich than non-legumes, with significantly higher Zn, Fe, P, C and N concentrations, and lower C:N and C:P ratios. Legumes appeared to have a more efficient nutrient uptake strategy. However, the higher N:P ratio of legumes suggests that despite higher absolute nutrient concentrations, legumes were P limited. This study confirms that legumes are more P stressed than non-legumes in the CFR.

New marketing channel “grid-shop” blossoms in the new economy. The grid-shop combines the merits of the virtual channel and the physical channel. The key features are that the grid-shop can service simple shopper and seller of goods at the same time. The types of the grid-shops include merchandise and handicraft. Laddering method in the qualitative research is applied for the Means-End Chain (MEC) model to build content codes connecting attributes, consequence and values for the grid-shop consumers and tenants. The data were collected through one-to-one, in-depth personal interviews of 120 grid-shop consumers and tenants with open-ended questionnaires. Result of the research: 13 product attributes, 15 consumption consequences and 17 values for consumers of the grid-shop are found. 10 product attributes, 12 consumption consequences and 11 values for tenants of the grid-shop are found.All types of the consumers pursue the “pleasure”, “worth”, “satisfied” and “newfangled” experiences. In addition, the consumers of the merchandise grid-shop respect “efficient” and the consumers of the handicraft grid-shop respect “unique”. All types of the tenants pursue the “pleasure”, “worth” and “reassured” experiences. For tenants of merchandise grid-shop, they additionally respect “efficient”. And, for tenants of handicraft grid-shop, they additionally respect “identity” and “self-esteem”. The merchandise and handicraft grid-shop reveals different final values and the value hierarchies. The value path of “worth” is stable for the consumers. Instead, the value path of “pleasure” is stable for the tenants. Finally, suggestion for the practical operation and future research direction are given.

Under fast development of the Internet, E-shops have become an important marketing channel. Despite the growth of Internet surfers, the population with experiences of shopping online has not grown to a significant level. In addition to the incomplete online shopping environment and security issues, the insufficient understanding of most enterprises about how to manage an E-shop is also the main reason. 　　To provide a seasonable solution to this issue, this study would (1) derive 4 constructs, 16 categories, and 68 key success factors via literature reviews, expert interviews, Focus Group, and Delphi method; (2) establish a value system of E-shops as the basis of assessing the difference in key success factors; (3) integrate the value system and the concept of Kano model to develop Kano value model, so as to get hold of the properties and category of each key factor; (4) apply FAHP (Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process) to present the importance ranking of the 4 constructs and 16 categories as the basis for the staged development of enterprises; and finally; (5) according to the ranking, establish the successful development map for E-shops. 　　It was expected that the research results would serve as a reference for more accurate systemization of E-shops in the process of development and reduce the exploration time and possibility of failure in the process of test and trial.

Due to its unique characteristics, folk clothing represents the culturally most distinctive form among clothing styles. Due to movements promoting indigenous culture, interest in Taiwan folk clothing rose significantly for come time in the 80''s. Unfortunately, this new demand for native clothing was not the result of good management practices but rather due to a short-lived fashion trend. In consequence, the Taiwan folk clothing inclustry fell victim to the more competitive ready-to-wear garment industry. Yet, the Taiwan folk clothing industry is still consiered very important in as much as it symbolizes the spirit of traditional culture. Therefore, the challenge to strengthen the existing Taiwan folk clothing market has become an issue of major importance within this industry. Above all, the need to understand the characteristics of Taiwan folk clothing consumers is decisive. Literature on this topic is very limited. For this reason, more consumer research ought to be generated if managers and administrators in the Taiwan folk clothing industry are to become more successful. 　　This study focus on the consumer needs. The research topics are:(1)the folk clothing value, which could express consumers'' interior need; (2)the shop image, which could influence consumers'' impression of the retail shop''s exterior performance; (3)the service quality, which could measure the consumer purchase loyalty. The aim is to obtain insight into consumers'' emphasis on the three aspects mentioned above. 　　The findings of this study are as follows: As regards the Taiwan folk clothing value area, consumers particulary attach importance to: (1)the handling and design of clothing; (2)whether or not the clothing can provide the wearer with a sense of belonging to his/her respective group; (3)the social status which is represented by the particular garment; (4)the price of the clothing. As regards the shop image and service quality area, consumers focus on: (1)the arrangement of promotion activities; (2)the attitude of shop personnel and operation process; (3)the price and quality of products; (4)the shop''s environment and consumer service; (5)the convenience of shop location. 　　Through factor analysis and cluster analysis consumers could be segmented into three gtoups: the fashion-conscious and active group, the leisure and family-like group and the enthusiastic and ascetic group. All three groups show significant differentiation as to the following aspects of population statistics: career, education, salary and purchase place.

With the highest density of convenience stores in the world, the severe competition of this industry in Taiwan is no surprise. The marketing campaign initiated by 7-ELEVEn’s "Entire-Shop Marketing Event" since Apr 2005 is far from cease. The investment of Entire-Shop Marketing Event takes up to hundreds of millions (NTD) that few convenience store chains can continuously invest; however, FamilyMart is never absent from this game and the author is lucky enough to participate in the planning and implementation of its Entire-Shop Marketing Event. In Jul 2007, with the introduction of “Chinese God Figures” designed by DEM, FamilyMart set the record of giving away 4.1 million figures. The statistic figures that FamilyMart earned monthly revenue of over 3 billion for three consecutive months, while the main competitor 7-ELEVEn’s revenue declined for five consecutive months, show how the main theme of Entire-Shop Marketing Event directly affect the transfer of customers. This research explores six marketing projects of FamilyMart, through literature analysis and case study, and the author hereby proposes the theoretical framework:” Value House Model: the innovative strategy of Entire-Shop Marketing Event”. The model consists of one core strategy: ”THEME”, three deign dimensions: “total sense of life”, “style ideas”, “synergistic integration”, and two performance dimensions: ”operation performance” and “brand value”. The structure of these dimensions is as follows: 1.“THEME” is the key factor to success of Entire-Shop Marketing Event. Themes that are closer to consumers’ life experiences are more likely to arouse their interest and resonance, which in turn increases its visibility and media coverage, and thus brand awareness and revenues. 2.The interpretation of the theme combines culture and creativity, and is presented in a modern, stylish design. The consumers will find it innovative and fun, which brings positive effect to brand image and brand awareness. 3.Entire-Shop Marketing Event spans a wide range of aspects, including theme, gifts, design, communications, process, materials, regulations, transport and etc., that it requires great ability of resource integration to bring synergistic effects. 4.Same/similar themes and gifts may effectively attract consumers’ participation through different packaging. Nevertheless, the question if the effect is progressively decreasing for sure could serve as directions for future research.

Abstract E-business is an irresistible general trend for consumers or companies to trade over Internet. There were more than 7 million Internet users over the world. According to eTForecasts and eMarketer’s forecast, there would be 5-6 billion Internet users in 2002 and would grow up to 13.3 billion in 2006. This shows a potential business in Internet is not ignorable. A successful E-business over Internet would be based into two factors: technical and business strategy. Technical is the means to achieve goals of business strategy. However, technical factors in Internet environment include Web design, network transmission performance, product/service representations, transaction successful rate, etc. One of the above technical factors does not do well for customers, it will affect and stop consumers shopping in Web. For business strategy factor, companies have to evaluate their products/services strategies that are suitable selling in Web. Good promotion ideas, product price strategy, supply chain systems and web environment creation are also required. Many E-business companies are looking for new customers, they emphasize on the number of consumer growth rate. Companies develop many promotion campaigns to attract new customers. But they forget to keep customer’s loyalty. Customer’s loyalty is very important for sales revenue. In this research, customer satisfaction and loyalty from the viewpoint of customer value in E-business over Internet are discussed. The result of this research shows that consumer’s satisfaction is positively affected by customer perceive web’s “quality value”, “cost value”, and “performance outcomes”. In terms of impact effect, customer perceived “performance outcomes” is higher than “quality value” and “ cost value”. The research result also depicts that consumer’s loyalty is positively affected by customer perceive web’s “satisfaction” and “cost value”, but there is no evidence to support “quality value” has affect “consumer’s loyalty”.
