Comparative Empirical Analysis On Computer Software Piracy Behaviors Between China And The United States: An Exploratory Study, Xiang Fang, Sooun Lee
Comparative Empirical Analysis On Computer Software Piracy Behaviors Between China And The United States: An Exploratory Study, Xiang Fang, Sooun Lee
Journal of International Technology and Information Management
Using the data collected from several universities in China and the United States, which have drastically different piracy rates, economic development stages, income levels, and national cultures, this study aims to identify which demographic factors affect software piracy significantly. Totally, the dataset includes 600 valid responses. Multivariate data analysis, supported by Multivariate Analysis of Variance and Turkey’s test, reveals that among various factors, country difference and gender most significantly influence software piracy. In addition, this study offers recommendations on how to curb software piracy effectively.
Do National Culture And Organizational Development Affect The Effectiveness Of Erp Implementation? A Tale Of Two Cultures: Us Versus China, Wing M. Fok, Lillian Y. Fok, Jing Li
Do National Culture And Organizational Development Affect The Effectiveness Of Erp Implementation? A Tale Of Two Cultures: Us Versus China, Wing M. Fok, Lillian Y. Fok, Jing Li
Journal of International Technology and Information Management
As many US and European companies have implemented Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Systems, most of the previous implementation studies have tended to focus on companies from more developed countries. This research points out that there is need for academics and practitioners to “take stock,” to examine what is happening in broad terms across organizations in the ERP implementation process, and to consider whether cultural differences in the U.S. when compared to another culture can impact the process. In this study, we are concerned with several issues surrounding current ERP implementation status and report initial findings from managers in a wide …
Effects Of Exchange Benefits, Security Concerns And Situational Privacy Concerns On Mobile Commerce Adoption, Hua Dai, Yan Chen
Effects Of Exchange Benefits, Security Concerns And Situational Privacy Concerns On Mobile Commerce Adoption, Hua Dai, Yan Chen
Journal of International Technology and Information Management
Few empirical studies have examined both privacy and security concerns in the context of mobile commerce (m-commerce) while accounting for the effects of situational privacy concerns specific to the context of m-commerce. This research fills this gap in research by exploring users’ exchange perceptions specific to the context of m-commerce in China and by examining the inhibitors and drives of m-commerce adoption in China from the perspectives of social exchange. Particularly, this research develops an integrated research model in which users’ perceptions on value added of and usefulness of m-commerce, and users’ privacy concerns and security concerns of m- commerce …

Strategies For Manufacturing In Southern China, Hilda M.S Lai, Domenic Sculli
Strategies For Manufacturing In Southern China, Hilda M.S Lai, Domenic Sculli
Journal of International Technology and Information Management
This paper investigates the structure of industrial and business network strategies in the global manufacturing environment based on empirical data from 87 manufacturing firms in the Pearl River Delta of Southern China. Relevant data was collected using a questionnaire approach and analyzed using appropriate statistical techniques. Hierarchical cluster analysis was employed to devise taxonomy for industrial network strategies. Three distinct clusters were identified: Network Integrators, Network Learners and Network Conformists. Results indicate that the former two clusters, though differing in the extent of scale, adopt a holistic approach in developing both intra- and inter-firm strategies and that the third cluster …

The Readiness For And Current Status Of E-Government In China, Yue Zhang, Zhiyang Lin, Quan Lin, Chang-Tseh Hsieh
Journal of International Technology and Information Management
E-government is important for China’s economic and social development. A measurement is developed and applied to assess the readiness of local Chinese governments for e-government. E-government development status of local Chinese governments is assessed through evaluation of their websites. Relationships between e-government readiness and the actual progress on e-government are discussed.

Journal of International Technology and Information Management
From the Forbes Magazine survey of the world’s 538 richest, seventy seven (77) or about 14.4% were identified as born in Asia (Asia Week, June 28, 2001). In addition, the top 100 billionaires (in $NT) in Taiwan, 2001 and 2002 were surveyed by Taiwan Smart Monthly magazine ( Nov 11, 2002) and another top 100 billionaires in China (in U.S dollars) were reported by the Forbes magazine in 2004. This paper utilizes Liu ,Lin, Lee and Chou’s (1996) state and context dependent information management model specification (Joseph & John, 2006), and equity account dependent variables to study the underlying intercultural …

Analysis Of Competitive And Cooperative Technology Strategies Of Electronics Firms In The Greater China Region, Chung-Shing Lee, Kuei-Hsien Niu, Jonathan C. Ho
Journal of International Technology and Information Management
This paper integrates several theoretical perspectives to discuss the attributes of successful implementing strategic alliances and supply chain management strategies in high-technology industries. A multiple- case study of Taiwanese and Chinese electronics industries is presented to demonstrate how and why different firms apply different technology strategies in alliances and supply chain formations. Due to intense global competition, technological integration, and product life-cycle time compression, Taiwanese and Chinese high-technology firms are suggested to formulate and implement a coherent technology strategy to enhance their global competitiveness. By applying an integrated framework based on major theoretical perspectives studying the formulation and implementation of …

Features Of Born-Global Processing Plants Under The Global Economy, Helen G. Zhao, Vistor H.Y. Lo, Domenic Sculli
Journal of International Technology and Information Management
A Born-Global Processing Plant (BGPP) is the formation of a new manufacturing plant specifically for the world-wide outsourcing industry and is a unique product of the global economy. The concept of a Born-Global entity has been mainly associated with high-tech industries and high-tech products. In this paper we extend the term BGPP to cover the concept of Born-Global to mature/low-tech and labor intensive processing plants that produce many of the traditional manufactured products. Such processing plants form the backbone of Southern China’s economic development. The conventional view regards a BGPP as playing a minor role in a traditional multinational enterprise …
