Outsourcing is a major driver in the growth of Virtual Organisations (VOs) in the manufacturing domain. These outsourcing networks can be classified as Virtual Organisations (VOs) as they are created from different organisational entities for a specific purpose and exist for a specified period of time. The electronics industry is in the vanguard with a projected 23% of electronics manufacturing...

This study was intended to verify the effects of implementing the Balance-Scored Card (BSC) on the organizational performances by using BSC as the moderator. Managers and directors in smalland medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Taiwan’s electronics industry were interviewed and ROE data was sourced from Taiwan Economic Journal. This study adopted a simple random sampling method to sample the po...

The tremendous growth of communications systems in recent years has put a demand on the electronics industry to provide higher speed integrated circuits than are currently available with today's silicon technology. To help meet this demand, the electronics industry is developing new semiconductor materials such as gallium arsenide which already report clock frequencies of 1-3 GHz in GaAs integr...

Technology is transferred through various channels by many different agents. The Korean electronics industry has been heavily dependent upon licensing from foreign firms. The level of technology in the Korean electronics industry nearly matches that of developed countries in terms of generalized products. However, Korea falls behind in both basic engineering and in the production of parts and m...
