abstract: A thriving semiconductor industry has been created in Taiwan over the course of the past two decades by the use of advanced organizational techniques of technology leverage and accelerated technology diffusion. By the mid 1990s, the industry had reached a level of output that placed it behind only the U.S. Japan, and Korea. Almost all of Taiwan's semiconductor industry is located in the Hsinchu Science Based Industry Park, which was created in emulation of California's Stanford Research Park, but with more direct government involvement. This article explores the extent to which this emergent Silicon Valley in Taiwan shares the "industrial ecology" that has powered innovation in California and examines the extent to which the Taiwan industry suffers from weaknesses attributable to its rapid creation through technology leverage.

abstract: An acidophilic, slightly thermophilic bacterium, designated strain NTAP 1T, that produces a thermostable extracellular acid collagenase activity with potential industrial applications was isolated from soil of Aoba yama Park, Sendai, Japan. The temperature range for growth was 40 65 degrees C, with an optimum at 55 degrees C, and the pH range for growth was 2.5 6.5, with an optimum at pH 5.5. Analysis of the 16S rDNA sequence of strain NTAP 1T showed that it is most closely related to strains of the genus Alicyclobacillus. Consistently, the major constituents of the cell membrane lipid of strain NTAP 1T were omega alicyclic fatty acids. However, DNA DNA reassociation studies showed only low similarities (less than 33% to any type strain of Alicyclobacillus. On the basis of the phenotypic and genotypic properties, a novel species is proposed, Alicyclobacillus sendaiensis sp. nov. represented by strain NTAP 1T =JCM 11817T=ATCC BAA 609T)

abstract: Via a large scale cross sectional study among Japanese white color workers, the authors aimed to elucidate: (1) the distributions of Sense of Coherence (SOC) which reflect stress coping abilities, (2) the distributions of the Brief Scale for Coping Profile (BSCP) which reflect coping profiles for stressors; (3) and the association between SOC and BSCP. Anonymous self administered questionnaires were sent to 20,742 employees at educational and research institutions in Tsukuba Research Park City. A total of 12,009 (57.9% workers completed and returned the questionnaire; 10,317 workers without missing data were analyzed. SOC scale scores and BSCP subscale scores differed by gender, age, and other demographic features. Among the BSCP subscales, workers whose SOC scale scores were higher tended to adopt a problem focused coping profile, whereas workers whose SOC scale scores were lower adopted an emotion focused coping profile. The coping profile that workers adopted depended on their background and demographic characteristics. Stronger SOC allowed one to adopt a problem focused coping profile that allows for better coping with work related stressors.

abstract: Abstract Ant fauna of a green buffer belt adjacent to an industrial zone in Kagoshima City, southern Kyushu, Japan was elucidated using a standardized protocol. A total of 39 species belonging to 24 genera in five subfamilies were recorded from this park. Most speciose genera are Camponotus and Tetramorium having four species. The number of species per genus is 1.56 on average. Pheidole noda F. Smith, Monomo rium chinense Santschi, Solenopsis japonica Wheeler, Tetramorium bicarinatwn (Nylander) and Technomyrmex albipes (F. Smith) were most frequently encountered. Excepting Pheidole noda they are open land and/or forest edge inhabitants. Furthermore, Tetramorium bica rinatum and Technomyrmex albipes are tramp species. Thus, ant fauna there strongly reflects environmental conditions derived from urbanization/industrialization. Based on the present results, we propose here a new protocol monitoring ants in urban/industrial zones consisting of baiting and time unit sampling.

abstract: In view of the unprecedented devastation of the Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE) the psychological overreaction tends to emphasize the safety aspects at the expense of the basic principle of designing industrial supply chains that achieve competitiveness and robustness simultaneously. Manufacturing firms must identify the "weak links" in their supply chains in terms of dependence, visibility, substitutability and portability. The objectives of this paper are (1) to critically evaluate proposed changes to damaged supply chains such as adding inventory, adopting standardized parts, physically duplicating line production and equipment, and evacuating whole facilities; (2) to propose "virtual dual sourcing" in which the firm facing supply chain disruptions caused by a disaster carefully choose either to quickly recover a damaged line or transfer critical design information to a substitute line. Effective implementation of the virtual dual solution will require simultaneously enhancing the design information's portability, the supplier's visibility, and the firm's capabilities at process recovery and production substitution.

abstract: In Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) caused by overwork are recognized by government as work related. These three countries are the only countries in the world that officially recognize CVDs caused by psychosocial factors (e.g. overwork) as work related cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases (WR CVDs) and compensate employees accordingly. The present study compared the similarities and differences among the recognition of overwork related CVDs in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. The criteria by which WR CVDs are identified are very similar in the three countries. However, in the interval surveyed (1996 2009) Korea had a remarkably larger number of recognized WR CVD patients than did Japan or Taiwan. Recognition of occupational diseases is influenced by various factors, including socio cultural values, the nature of occupational health care schemes, the extent of the social security umbrella, national health insurance policy, and scientific evidence. Our results show that social factors may be very different among the three countries studied, although the recognition criteria for WR CVDs are quite similar.
