澳洲科技創新競爭力之分析-以「IPO-OECD分析流程模式」為工具

Abstract

Abstract The purposes of this study focus on an analysis on competitiveness in technological innovation of Australia in a marco-level on country through establishing a named IPO-OECD analysis processes model along with adopting statistical data of those measurements of technology and innovation generated and published by OECD within 2000~2005 to achieve, while where targeting on inspecting the accomplishments of the extents of the plan empowered with “Backing Australia” starting since 2001. Throughout inspecting and analyzing to the competitiveness of developing coverages, outcomes and trends generated from those three processes and three dimensions set in IPO-OECD analysis processes model, in these three processes of IPO, the process of input resources shows its trend toward increasing up while ranking at the ninth and rating in high-low level. And the process of process transition demonstrates its trend toward increasing up while ranking at the fifteenth and rating in middle level. Yet the process of output performance indicates its trend toward decreasing down while ranking at thirteen and rating in middle-level. With consolidating results in trend, rank and rate from inspection and observation into those three processes of IPO, the Australian competitiveness on technology and innovation explores its ranking at the twelveth, reflecting its trend toward remaining stably even, as well as rating in high-low level, within thirty countries in OECD. In those three measuring dimensions of OECD on competitiveness in technology and innovation, the dimension of R&D shows its trend toward remaining even while ranking at the tenth and rating in high-low level. And the dimension of ICT demonstrates its trend toward decreasing down while ranking at the eleventh and rating in high-low level. Still the dimension of communication indicates its trend toward increasing up while ranking at the twenty-one and rating in low-high level. With consolidating results in trend, rank and rate from inspection and observation into those three dimensions of OECD, the Australian competitiveness on technology and innovation explores its ranking at the fourteenth, reflecting its trend toward remaining stably even, as well as rating in middle level, within thirty countries in OECD. Eventually, to summarize the results of analysis and the trends of observation mentioned above, the competitiveness in technology and innovation for Australia demonstrates its ranking at the thirteenth, reflecting its trend toward remaining stably even, as well as rating in middle level, within thirty countries in OECD. The conclusions, however, with looking into the analysis on competitiveness in technology and innovation for Australia, there are a series of major findings observed, stated as follows. 1. Developing in a stable even trend and showing up developing performance in progress but not obvious. 2. Indicating a delay effect coming up in processes. 3. Exploring an alerting signal to surpass by competitor. 4. Demonstrating the competitiveness for future transcending for the current competitiveness as well as for the transformation efficiency. 5. Displaying the competitiveness in research and development transcending in information and communication technology as well as in communication. 6. Displaying existing discrepancies contrasting with measurements to technology and innovation of OECD. 6. Showing up OECD’s technology and innovation measurements focusing on information and communication technologies. 7. Australia must strengthen the integrating efficiency in technology and innovation as to promote Australian overall competitiveness.
