Turbulence and Competitive Dynamics in the Internet Services Industry

This paper has two objectives. First, we seek to comprehend the overarching patterns of structural change underlying the hyper-dynamic processes shaping and reconfiguring the Internet services industry during both the Internet hype period in the late 1990s and the ""post-hype' period after the turn of the millennium. This is done through an empirical account of the evolution in commercial customers' Internet use, the corresponding development of new Internet services, and through an analysis of the evolving competitive and cooperative dynamics in Internet services. This analysis encompasses an exposition of both the entry-based dynamics and the post-entry positioning dynamics of different strategic groups operating in Internet services--in particular ""old economy' companies and their adaptation to Internet services. Secondly we try to answer the question whether Internet services is to be considered a complex value system of interrelated services provided by different types of firms in different industries, rather than a unitary industry of competing firms.

INPI, the Internet and electronic commerce

The information society has always raised important social, economic and cultural issues for our country. In the early days, Minitel was a major factor in user awareness and education in France. Internet-based technologies then offered the ergonomics and user-friendliness expected by a wide section of the public, both French-speaking and otherwise. Our task of disseminating industrial property information, which is a public service, was therefore facilitated by the fact that access was quick and easy and was available anywhere in the world seven days a week and 24 h a day.I – The patents web www.inpi.fr/brevets and esp@cenet: In order to reach as many members of the public as possible and as part of the esp@cenet project, since September 1998 the patents web www.inpi.fr/brevets has been offering access in French to the past two years of FR, EP and PCT publications, the full text of FR applications and a link to esp@cenet.Although the request forms seem simple, not every Internet user understands what professionals like ourselves mean by publication number, priority, filing, inventors, applicants or IPC code.The patents web www.inpi.fr/brevets therefore offers an added-value service, namely the natural-language search engine CIB-LN (in English this would be IPC-NL).This extremely powerful engine enables all French-speaking Internet users to identify the relevant patent classification codes in French using their own words, and to search with the utmost efficiency on the Net using both the patents web www.inpi.fr/brevets and any other patents sites which accept IPC entries.This achievement is currently the subject of a study of the transferability of the natural language search engine into other languages.We are currently experiencing the fourth commercial and marketing revolution, in the shape of electronic commerce. The first revolution involved the emergence of fairs in the Middle Ages, the second the establishment of department stores in the late 19th century, and the third the introduction of volume retailing in the 1950s.Electronic commerce therefore poses a major challenge to any private or public company. Marketing estimates and forecasts indicate that information marketing services will be among the most successful. INPI certainly hopes to take up this challenge.II – INPI shop: Our shop, which is in the process of being set up, will combine information marketing services with:

• trade mark priority and French Commercial and Companies Register (RNCS) searches;

• copies of patents;

• strategic and competitor information search (RISC) services;

• historical background;

• BREF, COSMOS, GLOBALPAT and RXN CD-ROMs;

• official publications.

The success and viability of an Internet shop is directly proportional to its links to other shops or service sites. It is therefore quite obvious that the INPI shop will be linked to direct INPI search systems (the patents, trade marks and companies webs) and to any other search service or shop which would like to be linked to it.

Efficiency, speed, and scaling of two-dimensional passive-dynamic walking

We address performance limits and dynamic behaviours of the two dimensional passive-dynamic bipedal walking mechanisms of Tad McGeer. The results highlight the role of heelstrike in determining the mechanical efficiency of gait, and point to ways of improving efficiency. We analyse several kneed and straight-legged walker designs, with round feet and and point-feet. We present some necessary conditions on the walker mass distribution to achieve perfectly efficient (zero-slope-capable) walking for both kneed and straight-legged models. Our numerical investigations indicate, consistent with a previous study of a simpler model, that such walkers have two distinct gaits at arbitrarily small ground-slopes, of which the longer-step gait is stable at small slopes. Energy dissipation can be dominated by a term proportional to (speed) 2 from tangential foot velocity at heelstrike and from kneestrike, or a term proportional to (speed) 4 from normal foot collisions at heelstrike, depending on the gait, ground-slope, and walker design. For all zeroslope capable straight-legged walkers, the long-step gaits have negligible tangential foot velocity at heelstrike and are hence especially fast at low power. Some apparently chaotic walking motions are numerically demonstrated for a kneed walker.     

没有完善的反垄断法,互联网永无宁日

谁都知道,任何一个商人都不会拿他的客户利益去开玩笑,更不会为了所谓的竞争去牺牲公众的利益,因为他们都懂一个理,客户是他生存和发展的衣食父母。因为市场经济也是法治经济和诚信道德经济,

Prisoners, chickens, volunteers, free riders and suckers: dilemmason the Internet

The World Wide Web enables users to access a variety of multimedia resources distributed around the world. Its ease of use has attracted many new users to the Internet and the emergence of commercial Internet providers has facilitated this growth. Although most people welcome the breakdown of elitist access to the Internet, it has had an impact on the performance experienced by the individual user. `Game theory' is used to examine the conflict of self interest versus group interest within a shared network environment like the Internet     

Effect of Structural Variation within Lipophilic Lariat Ether Phosphonic Acid Monoesters on the Selectivity and Efficiency of Competitive Alkali Metal Cation Extraction into Chloroform

Lipophilic lariat ether phosphonic acid monoethyl esters with systematic crown ether ring size variation from 12-crown-4 to 24-crown-8 are utilized for competitive alkali metal cation extractions from aqueous solutions into chloroform. Effective alkali metal cation extraction from weakly acidic, neutral, and basic aqueous solutions is achieved. With 4, 5, and 6 oxygens in the crown ether rings, selectivities for Li(+), Na(+), and K(+), respectively, are observed. An 18-crown-6 phosphonic acid monoester exhibits excellent extraction selectivity for K(+) with K(+)/Li(+) and K(+)/Na(+) > 100. The lipophilic group attachment site, as well as the crown ether ring size, is shown to influence the extraction selectivity for the lariat ether phosphonic monoesters.

The purpose of this paper is to show how data communication technologies have affected distance learning and pedagogy, and help teachers and students in virtual classrooms. In particular, the paper addresses the history of distance learning, current issues, the federal government’s role, and four specific areas of improvement: curricula change, new patterns of interaction, changes in organizational structures, and the roles and activities of participants in both business and academic distance-learning environments.     

Voice technology in the instrumentation of the automobile

The author discusses the applications of voice technology in modern automobiles. A major goal of this technology is to add artificial intelligence to the instruments of the vehicle to improve the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Two aspects of speech technology are discussed, namely, speech synthesis and speech recognition. Speech synthesis is mainly used to generate verbal warning messages whenever a problem is detected in the vehicle. In addition, verbal messages can be generated to advise the driver to perform certain tasks to improve the performance of the automobile. In the second application of voice technology, namely, speech recognition, the basic goal is to create hands-free control of some of the automobile functions, taking direction from the driver's voice
